Chapter 155 Breaking The Barrier
We are standing in front of the door that shall lead us into the tunnel that goes to the basement. Ahead of us is the Vampire Army, lead by a Vampire Hunter. We have a group behind them that consists of three Hunters, an Angel, three Vampires, and a Wizard.
What a truly bizarre combination.
Our mission is to save my beloved and end the life of the King of the Underworld before he is even born. In our way is an unknown number of demons, and behind them the power of a fairy.
So it is with great fear in all our minds that I release the spell to open the doorway to the tunnel.
We are met by the stench that makes our stomachs cringe to pure horror. These vile creatures have done what they have done the best, and that is feed of the flesh of each other. I can for sure say now that after this mission has ended that I am burning this house to the ground.
So we step into the tunnel with this ever-increasing nauseating smell filling our senses, but we need to keep in mind what we are here for. Now, if they are in the tunnel or only filling the basement itself, that we still do not know. And with this in mind, the Vampire Army slowly steps foot by foot into the tunnel. They are trying to make their presence as unknown as possible.
But as with a Vampire, the demons shall smell us coming from a mile away. Even if we are not expecting any trouble at firsthand, we are bound to be by halfway through.
It is with pure concern that I watch over my brothers and sisters that are now almost slowly disappearing into the inside.
It is now time to make our move.
We arm ourselves, all with guns and daggers, and move into the tunnel. Just as I set our final steps insides, then it begins.
The Vampire Army is only but a third of the way in, and they have encountered the first of the resistance. From the front comes the loud bangs as the army lashes a round of fire onto the demons that find in their way. After two more rounds of snapping sounds, we hear as the Vampires take to their daggers.
There are sounds slashing and cries; at first, I can only hear that of the demons, but then as they start to overtake and infiltrate the army, I can hear the deep growls of each Vampire that gets slain to the ground. I can, even though how horrid it may sound, I can thankfully say that it has only been about three that have made their final fight for our kind.
So we continue to move forward as we cannot stand and wait for all the demons to be slain. Yes, we will still find the resistance in front, but we are hoping that it will not be as severe as it is now.
The boys shall be ahead of us, Edward, Lilith, and me. Morgana shall be between casting spells as we go to protect us from the onslaught.
We seem to be running a perfect team.
Now that is only until we are set to make contact.
I hear from the front as Zachariah yells to us behind, "They have broken through, they have broken through."
The demons have broken through the wall that the army provided. They are making their way through the middle of the pack and are pushing through to the back. It seems that they have abandoned their fight with the army itself and are only pushing through to attack what finds itself at the back.
I watch as Connor looks over his shoulder where he stands in the middle of Ethan and Bobby, and he calls for us, "Get ready."
"We are as ready as we are ever going to get, my friend."
And then it happens...
The first demon breaks through the back.
Bobby only put points the barrel of his gun at him once, and the silver bullet hits him in the chest. The demon's eyes lit up in a fiery red, and he goes up in a black mass. Well, let us hope he goes back to where he came from. Then next...another one...and another one...
One by one, they come...
Far too slow and far too little...
But yet I have thought too soon for; next, they burst open in their masses, and we are in for a full battle now.
I look over to Lilith and Edward and only but nod my head. A silent word of reassurance. A way to say let us do this and an acknowledgment of gratefulness for making this sacrifice. Well, we all shall make this, I am merely stating." "Let the fucking monsters die."

So we launch at them with all the firepower that we have, we unleash every single bullet that takes its place in the chamber of our guns, and then after that still loading more. Every single demon that gets past the boys is ours to take. We lash at them in full force. There is blood splashing, there are bones cracking, and flesh splitting. It is absolute chaos.
Then the thing that we all fear would happen happens.
We run out of clips.
Now we need to go one step closer and take them out with each slash with the flick of very skillful hands. This is what a Vampire is made for. We are not ones that fight with bullets; we fight with our hands, we kill with our hands, and god, if we could now, we would have killed with our fangs.
With that, we come to a dead stop, and now we wait for them to come towards us; I am not charging blindly at a demon. He shall try to take me from my feet, and I shall show him how mistaken he is in the way he was thinking.
So demon for demon comes towards the boys at; first, I see Bobby smash them with on perfect movement into the chest. And god, do I even dare to say it, the man is enjoying every minute. And so does Ethan and Connor. Now Connor has something to say to all of them, but mainly, 'Die you fucking flesh-eating monster' or 'Take that bitch."
Well, I would lie if I say that I am not standing with an inner chuckle, but I know that once this is all over, I am going to get it from the boy. But let me say this, but I am not making promises that I think my hunting days are coming to an end. But that is a thought for later, for the demons have broken past the boys that are now completely surrounded by them, and they are heading our way.
As the very first monster, that is somehow rather on the larger side, towering me in a rather tall way, too, I steady my feet and stand my ground. As he reached for my shoulders, I retract my arm slowly and launch it back hard against his chest. My dagger pierces his skin on impact and slices into his flesh. The moment the tip rages through his heart, he lights up like a fire and combusts in a spectacular way.
Now that was far greater to watch than shooting them.
But they keep on coming. One after the after. And one after the other, I slice them into the softness of their flesh, slams it through the point, and hit the spot that sends them back to where they came from.
And this we do for the next half an hour.
And we are getting tired.
But then the impossible happens. The thing that none of us thought would happen, well, we just simply not think of it at all.

From behind where we are standing, Edward, Lilith, and me, there comes a group of demons. I shout over to Connor.
"Where the fuck did they come from?"
He looks for a brief moment over his shoulder, and then comes to a dead standstill.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
"God, they are coming from the front. We need to get inside and close this door," Connor says to Morgana as he comes to join us by our side.
We leave Morgana and Bobby at what is our back now and the entrance to the tunnel and start taking the onslaught from this side. With each step we make, we move back to the entrance from the tunnel. Now back to back, we all try to keep the demons at bay.
Then the unthinkable happens. Breyden speaks.
"Go inside; I will hold them off."
"No!" we hear Lilith scream from the side of us. "No, you will not do it."
"Lilith," Breyden pleads, "I can keep them off far better than any of you can."
So coming to stand in front of us is Breyden that takes over the fight, pushing us back into the tunnel. Meanwhile, all this time, Lilith has not cried out for Breyden to stop.
But Breyden continues to fight the demons off, one by one, until all but him are in the tunnel. Then as we are about to close off the tunnel, he turns to face us. "Se..."
Before his words can be spoken, it goes dead dark. The tunnel has been closed.
