?Vinny rushed towards the underground facility, which was the location Cole gave him; he was told that White Swan was hunting them for unknown reasons, and they were brought to an underground facility in the name of extracting information about which vampire group they belong to and information about the one who made them into thralls.

'What nonsense!! They wouldn't ever want to be thralls! They have been my friends since I was six years old! None of them ever talked about the problems they're facing, and all of us knew the problems of the others, even if the other side said nothing. Though Cole recently became our friend, I trust him!' Vinny thought as his eyes teared up.

All of the worst-case scenarios played out in his head, and every one of them resulted in his friends' deaths; they couldn't ever win against that monster, WHITE SWAN! Even he wasn't sure what he should do if they really turned out to be vampires, should he defend them? But if he did, he, too, would be killed by White Swan, and as soon as that possibility crossed his mind, he began to tremble and dashed towards the location given to him by Cole.

He had been living without them for a few years and had gotten 'used' to a lot of things, including the feeling of 'losing' something or someone precious, and there was only one thought that came to mind after he thought he had lost everything important.

'SURVIVE.'

'I can't die... I can't die, I can't die....I can't die...' Those words repeated themselves in his mind like a chant, and despite his conscience pricking him about abandoning his friends, he wanted to survive.

He wouldn't hesitate to throw away everything if it meant surviving, and his 'friends' weren't an exception. He wasn't like this before, or so he thought, but why he had suddenly turned into someone like this, he didn't know. What he did realize, as a matter of fact, was that he would throw away everything in order to survive! And Katline's face abruptly flashed through his mind at that moment, indicating another 'thing' in his 'everything.'

"NO!" He roared out of nowhere in the middle of his path, shook his head to dismiss the thought, and dashed towards them. Why? Because he wanted to see the truth for himself.

'Right! They would have contacted Eshwar! I'm sure he can do something against someone like White Swan. Yes, yes. Eshwar is there! He will help!' Vinny thought.

'He even fought against a Devil! He would be strong enough to fight against White Swan!!' Vinny slightly regained hope for his survival.

"Piers!" "Michael!" "Cole!" Vinny yelled as a tear rolled down his cheek since Katline's face flashed before his eyes, and the thought of him abandoning her disgusted him.

STEP (7x)

It rushed down the 30 step stairs in the middle of nowhere that led to a dark brown coloured door; he wasted no time and banged on the door.

BAM

"Piers!" "Michael!" "Cole!" He yelled as he banged on the door.

"...Op..uck! Open the door, uck, it's open...." Eshwar's groaning voice sounded from inside and Vinny who heard it instantly pushed the door.

CREAKKK

"Pull it, you son of a bit*h!!" Eshwar's annoyed voice was heard from behind the door.

'Oh....' Vinny exclaimed inwardly and pulled the door.

CRE-CREAK 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

'It's heavier than I thought.'

"Eshwar!?" Vinny entered the dark room and looked around for Eshwar because he could only hear his voice.

"Ack?" He tripped over something, but he supported himself with his hands and barely survived falling face first on the ground.

SHWOOSH

"Hm?" Vinny closed his eyes at the sudden light, which illuminated everywhere as the crystal-like ice around the light reflected it everywhere; it was the same magic Vinny had seen before when they raided the SS rank dungeon, but this time it floated mid-air with the help of Eshwar's magic, and after his eyes adjusted to the light, he looked at his sides and found nobody but Eshwar who had slumped down on the ground with blood trickling down from his mouth and a wide crater on the wall behind him.

"Guh."

'What!?' Vinny's eyes widened when he saw Eshwar's condition; there hadn't been much damage done to him, and he appeared to have been tossed aside like a bug He then took a slow look around, noticing tons of ice spikes protruding out from the floor, ceiling, and other sides of the walls, tons of huge sword marks everywhere, but not a single source of White Swan using magic was seen, there was only a single fist sized magic mark on Eshwar's chest that didn't have any magic-like 'feeling' to it, it was as if Eshwar had been attacked by something entirely different.

'Eshwar wasn't strong enough to deal with White Swan?' Vinny's eyes widened in surprise, and he looked down, thinking that even if he had arrived earlier, he wouldn't have been of any help. When he realized what he had just tripped over, his eyes widened in shock, and his hands trembled before becoming weak. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

THUD

'Huh? Cole?' Vinny, who had fallen flat on his face, remained like that on the floor after discovering what he had tripped over was Cole's lifeless body.

"Ack."

"Ah..." A wired sound escaped Vinny's mouth, and he immediately jumped up, rushed towards Cole, and noticed Piers's and Michael's lifeless bodies just a few steps ahead, all three of them had a huge gaping hole in the middle of their chests, done by some unknown power, which was also the same mark Eshwar had on his chest.

"Piers?" Vinny crawled towards Piers with tears streaming down his cheeks, then looked at Michael and noticed that his face was twisted in pain, whereas Cole's and Piers's were filled with fear.

"Michael?" Vinny crawled towards him and lifted his head as if about to kiss him, but instead he simply stared at him before checking his body for any evidence against White Swan, only to find another gulf ball sized gaping hole on Michael's forearm.

"Urgh."

Vinny discovered a smartwatch that had been tossed aside and slightly crushed, as if the person who attempted to destroy it had failed and didn't check it afterwards to see if it was busted or not, he didn't waste any time and looked for whatever had been opened recently, he noticed that the voice recorder was the only thing that had been opened recently, Vinny then opened it and played the audio that had been recorded.

[Hahahaha, you think I, 'White Swan,' would come here without knowing anything? I have received a request from my client that informed us about you guys; I checked it and found out that all of you were vampires from the beginning, and everybody in your neighbourhood thought of you as a bunch of kids.] White Swan's hoarse voice rang out of the smartwatch which shocked Vinny to the core.

"Argh."

'Is that true? No, no, I know them better than anyone, they weren't any vampire things, they were.....my.... friends.....' Vinny started to doubt everything about 'his friends,' and the word that integrated into his mind was 'client,' which meant somebody else had requested this from White Swan. Not an ounce of his hatred was directed towards White Swan, but instead every bit of his anger was directed at the client.

Vinny suddenly snapped his head to face Eshwar and saw an ominous grin on his face, which disappeared in an instant before being replaced with a painful expression.

'What!? No, no, since the light is above his head and blood on his mouth, I must have seen wrong while he winced in pain.' Vinny shook his head and dismissed that possibility, because 'Eshwar isn't someone like that.'

'Eshwar isn't someone who would laugh at somebody else's distress.'

"Vi..uck! Vinny, you alright?"
