Army of the living dead (vampires)

[noah]

(this is probably the final scene of Noah in the final episode of Trinity Brothers. After his encounter with Selena, after everything else. He is also now aware of the portal and what chaos this portal may cause to LA.)

Noah found himself surrounded by his kind, friends or not, he knew, they were going to have to stand united. His meeting with Selena was a real hit and miss. He learned that the Evan’s Brothers were behind the recent killings of vampires. He had taken the liberty in inviting all the vampires he knew of, all the vampires he has heard off, all the vampires in general to his huge mansion as they all stood spread out in the dining area as he stood in the middle of the room ready to address the vampires in the room. “My people, my kind, I am delighted to see all of you here on this glorious night. Our gathering tonight is one of importance. As tonight may be our final night of true freedom for a dangerous force is heading our way”.

Noah looks around as whispers could be heard throughout the room. He tried his best to ignore these whispers because he had to take care of the situation at hand. Which was the danger that is coming, whatever Selena was about to unleash could be a threat to him and his kind. He wasn’t going to allow this to happen without a fight. “For centuries there has been common ground between us and other kinds of creatures but tomorrow night, Selena might change that and cause complete havoc here in Los Angeles. I won’t sit here and watch my kind die because of it. We have battled many hunters in the past, like those Evans brothers, they have taken some of ours in the last few days and in return I have turned one closest to them, Eli Diastone. His alliance with us at this point is up in the air but we must now change that”

More whispers are heard throughout the room, many knew Noah never liked turning humans into vampires and he hasn’t done so in almost three hundred years, so the news of him turning a vampire has caught many off guard as well as the news of the new danger that is to come. “But not only is his alliance of importance, so is yours, all of you here. I know many of you have friendships with other kinds and I won’t stop you all from choosing but I warn you, there will come a time where you will need to choose, them or your fellow vampires and I will tell you this now, I do not take betrayal to kindly” Noah looked around, wanting to feel confident and intimidating as well, they are all supposed to follow his guidance in this, he hoped it work. Because he was right, it is going to be chaos when Selena goes through with her plan.

“But back to the Diastone boy, there is now blood running through his veins that is over five hundred years old, I wouldn’t know what effect this might have on him. But not only that, his knowledge and acquaintances with the Evan’s brothers could come in useful to us. They have hunted our kind for years we can finally put an end to them as well, as a united army of the living dead” Noah smirked feeling as if, he is going to be next in line to be the power in LA once his army of vampires are ready to take on whatever Selena is about to unleash. “Before we proceed to a night of blood filled dining, is there any questions?”

[Trenton Dante Moore]

Trenton walked into the mansion, slipping into a space in the back. He had heard whispers of something big going on, but other than that, he couldn't get anyone to talk...and that worried him. And then this vampire had a called a meeting of every vampire in LA. If there's a city wide call out to the different clans, you know it's bad, he thought to himself.
“My people, my kind, I am delighted to see all of you here on this glorious night. Our gathering tonight is one of importance. As tonight may be our final night of true freedom for a dangerous force is heading our way”. Trenton's eyes clouded. A dangerous force? With anyone else, Trenton would've thought they were exaggerating, but he got the feeling that this vampire wasn't prone to exaggeration.
“For centuries there has been common ground between us and other kinds of creatures but tomorrow night, Selena might change that and cause complete havoc here in Los Angeles. I won’t sit here and watch my kind die because of it. We have battled many hunters in the past, like those Evans brothers, they have taken some of ours in the last few days and in return I have turned one closest to them, Eli Diastone. His alliance with us at this point is up in the air but we must now change that.” Trenton watched as the other vampires began whispering to one another. Apparently this vampire didn't make that kind of a decision lightly.“But not only is his alliance of importance, so is yours, all of you here. I know many of you have friendships with other kinds and I won’t stop you all from choosing but I warn you, there will come a time where you will need to choose, them or your fellow vampires and I will tell you this now, I do not take betrayal to kindly.” Trenton's eyes flashed dangerously. He knew exactly how this vampire felt. He was not fond of betrayal himself. “But back to the Diastone boy, there is now blood running through his veins that is over five hundred years old, I wouldn’t know what effect this might have on him. But not only that, his knowledge and acquaintances with the Evan’s brothers could come in useful to us. They have hunted our kind for years we can finally put an end to them as well, as a united army of the living dead.” Trenton let out a roar of approval. This sounded good to him. "Before we proceed to a night of blood filled dining, is there any questions?”
"Excuse my impertinence, Old One, I realize that you probably did not make the decision to change this boy lightly, but are you sure that turning one of their friends was the wisest course of action? I have not fought with them much, but I have seen them in action and they are not a trio to be trifled with," he questioned, remembering to keep his tone respectful.

[Ai Yomato]

Ai tried to make a quiet entrance, but when your face was known because of the clothes you made, this soon after award season, it’s next to impossible. She smiled and shushed the people that walked over towards her and waved her fingers at them as she moved along. The buzzing raised a moment from its lull when she walked in but nearly silenced as the Elder, Noah, spoke. “Dangerous?” Ai asked herself but had to stop and put a hand to her forehead. The buzzing took on a new level and Ai had to stop herself from swooning.

The infernal buzzing halted again when he said something, but rose to yet another new height when he mentioned turning a boy. Even as he spoke the buzzing continued at its pitch and volume in her head. She had to reach behind her for the wall so she could lean without falling. It was starting to become a head ache, one Ai could very well not handle right this minuet. She understood his need to keep more of their kind from dying, but Ai wasn’t sure… Another voice spoke up voicing her concern as well. Ai smiled weakly. “If this evil is so great Elder,” she spoke up herself, “then why risk fighting this war on two fronts. Even the Classics understood that a war fought on two fronts was folly.” She stopped and placed her hand on her temple again.

“Oi, I feel sick,” she said quietly to herself again. When she was out at a party or a club, it was worth it, the buzzing moved in time with the rythmn, and the parts that were off beat were enough to handle, but this tortute… It made her sick. She smiled at the Elder again. “I think if we can put a stop to their hunting us long enough to concentrate on one enemy long enough… Well no one is so driven by a thought they don’t see reason as it comes. Challenging them will only produce more violence when their attention can be reverted back to us.” She swooned a moment then steadied herself. “Please, I’m not trying to be obnoxious but I would like to understand your thoughts so I know how best to conduct myself in my dealings with others.”

[noah]

It was no Surprise to Noah that someone would speak up on Eli’s behalf. He knew turning him might have caused some trouble but Noah felt he had too. “Trenton, I understand your concern but he and his vampire hunter friend has killed two of our kind in the last four days. It was important that I put a stop to his killing. I knew he was close to this boy, he would never hurt him. Even if our kind would lose this battle, he would never hurt his friend, our kind will live on in Eli”

Noah hoped he made it clear why Eli was turned and his importance. Then a young woman spoke up, she showed deep concern. Noah understood, it was a lot to ask the vampire community of but they had to take a stand. “I understand your concern, but I have battled Selena in the past, and she hates those Evan’s brothers as much as I do, but Selena’s plan will cause an unbalance and our kind will be a minority. When this portal opens, Demons of all sorts may come upon us and I’m afraid even I can’t stop on my own. Selena has no idea what she is getting herself into and I won’t suffer and lose my kind for her mistakes.”

This young woman showed her deepest concerns and spoke out. Noah admired her honesty and appreciated how she was willing to speak out. “I understand that this might cause more violence but when Selena goes through with her plans, these hunters might be the least of our worries, It is too late to stop Selena now, so the best thing to do right now is to prepare for the worse and be ready for anything that may come our way.” Noah looked around he could see concerned faces, angered faces, questionable faces, he knew everyone were a bit out of the loop but he was ready for it, he hope they all are as well. “I know this is scary, but we must be ready for whatever may come our way, be it good or be it bad”

[connordouglas]

Even Connor had found his way here, though he did not truly understand what he was walking towards. The fledgling was new to it all, though he did recognize that there was one man who was suppose to be 'in charge' of the whole vampire scene here in L.A. and for that reason he decided to make an appearance. His main reason for coming was simply to look upon the mans face, in case at a later time he needed to know who to look up incase their were any problems. The air seemed to be buzzing with curiousity, fear perhaps? Connor ignored the feelings generated, having no sympathy for the continuation of 'his kind' as it was put.

"What if we deserve death..?" he muttered mostly to himself, though the question was still loud enough that their hearing could pick it up. The fledgling with a conscience, who currently disliked the idea of his kinds existance. His fierce green eyes were locked on Noah as he tried to figure out the man who stood before them. He seemed genuinely concerned for the vampire community, though the idea of a monster having feelings seemed far fetched in his mind. What did they have to be afraid of? They were already dead, so what if they all perished a second time. Though another question formed in Connor's mind, this one he had to have an answer to.

"Is there really so many of us that we could risk fighting these demons? If there is a portal and hell is emptying upon us, what do you honestly expect us to be able to do?" he asked, the question seemed disrespectful the way it was delivered. While he was the established leader, Connor was defiant and hesitant in recognizing him in such a way just yet. Perhaps his tone was born out of ignorance, or perhaps Connor simply didn't care whether he lived or died. "We're doomed either way, aren't we? If the demons descend upon us, even after we fought them off our numbers would be thinned. We'd be easier targets for hunters."

[Robert Alexander Lovelace]

Robert walked in quietly, he steps as silent as only the dead can. After hearing Noah speak he tilted his head quietly, his eyes growing dark as they spoke of their fears and worries about the Hart Corporation, "We could manage a corporate take over. I have resources that may aid us on a more mundane front." He said quietly to the group as a whole.

"I would rather protect my family while I can and if we have have to call in reinforcements then we can do so. My daughter's coven will no doubt help us if we spin this right and she does have access to magical artifacts that could be good with gate closings." he offered quietly as he glanced at Connor.

Shifting to the side he eyed the boy, his gaze narrowed and he folded his arms gently to show his displeasure at him, "Merry is a very generous girl. If someone approaches her about our needs, that is competent to be in the same room without biting her, she should be amenable."

[noah]

Then he heard this young guy speak of deserving to die. He locked eyes with Noah and Noah wasn’t pleased with his assumption, this kid seemed like he really didn’t care. Noah listened to him carefully and then he did say he didn’t care, that they were going to die either way. This didn’t surprise Noah, thinking back, he would have said the same exact thing, but the roles were changed and now he was in command so it was just difference in what role they had. Noah then didn’t waste time to address him though. “I understand, believe me, I do understand”

Noah looked around at everyone, they seem to agree with the kid but they also didn’t. It was a room of people with mixed emotions and opinions so either way, Noah expected even worse. “I’m not saying we shall attack first, or that we will rush into battle. But if our kind is affected by this, if they start targeting our kind, it will mean we will have to take a stand. Fight for our people.” Noah then heard this older man, though he was a recent vampire, talk about protecting his daughters or including them. This did anger Noah a bit, he was not one to include anyone in his problems.

“I understand your care for your daughters. But you can’t protect them forever. Fifty years from now, when they are old, you, looking younger than they do, what purpose will you serve. When they die, what will be the purpose of you? That’s what we will be or will not be fighting for, our future, not those who will leave us along the way. But there will come a day, where you will have to chose, them or us. With that being said, I wouldn’t want to put your daughters in any danger” He looked at Robert, making sure he understood where he was coming from.

Noah knew exactly what this guy was going through, he’s been there, he’s seen his whole family, generation after generation after generation, it was more of a torture to see your family die, something he know Robert hasn’t experienced yet. But what could he do, Robert had to learn it for himself, see his children, his grandchildren his great grandchildren grow up and just die. Noah then signaled his servants as they brought out over a dozen humans, as they all walked out, slightly scared of course. Noah then raised his glass in the air as all the vampires, of course, happy with this treat. “Tonight, we feast like kings……so enjoy!” Noah raised his glass as the nightly festivities began.

[Trenton Dante Moore]

After the head vampire listened to his question, Trenton kept his mouth shut and listened as others spoke up with the concerns. A couple of them brought up good points about what would happen if the portal was opened. His eyes narrowed as one of the vampires talked about wanting to keep his daughter safe. Really? He was worried about somebody other than himself? Even if she did have extraordinary powers, she was a weakness that could be used against him and he was better off destroying her himself. Then the vampire that called them here made a signal and one-by-one, humans were brought out.
"Tonight, we feast like kings....so enjoy!" As the older vampire raised a glass, Trenton hurried towards the nearest human, grabbed them, flung them against a wall and bore down into their neck, savoring the deliciousness of their blood as it went down his throat.

[Ai Yomato]

In a strange moment of clarity Ai caught a glimpse into the eyes of the vampire that had voiced her first concerns earlier. All she could do was sit and take the onslaught of smugness that rolled off of him, like he was better then everyone else there. With out being able to stop herself Ai said aloud, "Well Elder Noah, maybe you won't have to worry about listening to other's plans to save not just our race but our own skins. Some of us here think so highly of themselves that they think the demons will do nothing to them!" she spat. It only took a moment, but the buzzing came back almost immediately as the food came out. Only a few seemed to care that Ai had said anything at all.

She put her hand to her head again and shook it hard. She bowed to him in a traditional Japanese style apology. "I'm sorry. I have no clue where that came from sir," she told him in all truth. The moment was gone, and the glimpse she'd had was all but gone, like a memory she'd had as a child. "Please, I didn't mean to be rude." She smiled and stood erect again.

Ai turned to the vampire that came in just after her and smiled pleasantly at him. "What ever your views are on right and wrong, don't you think you deserve to live the life you've chosen, with the hand that you've been dealt? Shouldn't you give that right to others?" She nodded at Robert. "Such as him looking after his family, doing the honorable thing by man's rights. Whether we believe that he should stay attached to them now or not, we want the right to live as we do, we should allow others the same."

She turned then fully to Robert and smiled. "It's a pleasure," she offered as she bowed once again. "I, personally, think that using your daughter's gifts might be a good plan, Sir." She tilted her head and crossed her arms across her stomach and thought about it. "Using another power base, and setting a group that is friendly with the Trinity Brothers, which would be friendly with us might help lessen the blow when the Brothers have the ability to turn on us..." she mused out load. "Our race might live on, but how safe would it be leaving one newling running amuck without having some teach him to control his urges for more then a month or two... The Brother's might have to destroy him just to end the blood shed... But if a few more of us could survive... We could teach him..." Her mind began to run down the way of working with the events that had been handed her. A moment later she looked up and asked, "your daughter and her coven are friendly with the Brothers, yes?"

[connordouglas]

Connor shook his head, he had seen enough here to last him a life time. All of this was to see if he could find a way for himself to fit into the crowd here in L.A. but it was clear that he was not one of them, whatever that was. The girl seemed more reserved, and Noah seemed concerned enough. All he could really do was stare Robert down, Merry never mentioned her vampire father. That either made her the nicest liar Connor had ever met or she didn't know about it. Crossing his arms over his chest, all he managed to mutter was a quiet "Whatever" to him, making it clear that Connor was going to do what he wished.

It figured that she would rush off and open her mouth about it, adding to his frustration. He didn't exactly tell her to keep it a secret either, but he hated the fact that his problem was out there. Snapping to the present, his eyes shifted to the female vampire, seemingly one of the more likeable ones. "I should have stopped existing the moment my heart stopped. This is unnatural, I guess my thinking is old fashion." he said, seeming disgusted by the idea of this feast. It seemed that no invitation was needed as one of them tore into a human, causing Connor to avert his eyes.

The scent of blood was undeniably intoxicating, though revolting at the very same time. He wanted to feed, but at the same time he wanted to run screaming from the room as if this was a nightmare. If turning into them was all he had to look forward to in the coming years, he would have prefered to take a stake to the heart. "Any man who would willingly bring their family into this is not a father at all, by the way." he said, placing his hands into his pockets and drifting away from the crowd a bit. That was the first brick in the wall of hatred he would probably build with Robert, it was going to be quite a grand sight when it was complete.

Walking off to the side, Connor would watch the feast begin with an expression of disgust mixed with torture, longing, and bloodlust. He didn't even realize it was possible to feel so many things all at once, it made his head spin.

[Robert Alexander Lovelace]

"I thought it might be of use, Master Noah. Forgive me if I impinged on your honor. My daughter does not know of our kind and she was six when I was turned. Turning her then would not have been...appropriate. She is just 26 now. Time has flown by. I realize that many may see my stance as weak but I truly am looking out for our best interest." He bows to the young and old alike with an educated stance.

When Ai introduced herself he took her hand and kisses it, "Greetings, My lady. Surely the sun rose with your birth in life as it set with your death and rebirth into this one." he smiled winningly at her and straightened, "She is on friendly terms with the brothers, She just met Axel and knows Everett from his store." his shoulders shrugging as he turned to Connor, "Any man who can bite my daughter without turning her is either a fool or blind. You gave us away, boy. She did not know what I was and still does not, but she knows you for the incompetent puppy you are. I made her tell me what happened with a compulsion. She didn't betray you. You betrayed yourself." Connor's body language said it all. He was cocky and arrogant, "You brought her into this. If she is harmed it is on your head." with that he searched the offerings and found a scared but psychotic male that never expected to be on the receiving end of cruelty.

Smiling Robert walked up and grabbed the man, sinking his fangs deep and tearing to cause as much pain as he could to the abuser of other humans. The hunter was the hunted and Robert drank deep before dropping the lifeless corpse and grabbing another who had a habit of beating her children. There were always humans worse than vampires if you looked long enough.
