Chapter 28 - I'm a shitty friend

At Bloodfire estate

Mrs Ksenia was cleaning the personal study of Duke Bloodfire. She was one of the most trusted vampires by the Duke.

As she finished she looked at the window to the outside. At first nothing seemed wrong but her experience as a vampire taught her to never question her instincts. She vanished from the room in a poof of flames and stood outside.

And in the next moment her suspicions were right. As a man appeared in the air and as he appeared a small with large bat wings flapping in the air he created a small sonic boom behind himself.

All the servants appeared in the courtyard with weapons ready, but Ksenia stopped them. "Halt, this man isn't an enemy." She said as she approached the man.

What she did next surprised everyone. Good evening lord Sebastian. What brings you to the Bloodfire estate?" As she spoke all the vampire stopped at the name said.

Thats the name of one of the most powerful vampires in history even said to be stronger than their lord.

"Haaa." Good even to you too lady Ksenia I'm hear to ask for a room and medical help." He gestured towards Lazarus who was unconscious in his hands and a small hole in his chest that had seemed to had stopped from fully closing up.

As he said Lason and Cassandra appeared next with sweat in their faces.

"God, dammit! Could you not have slowed down were not as fast as you!" Lason said between gasps.

"For once i agree with you on something brother." Cass added.

"Young master, young lady what's going on at the moment?" Ksenia questioned.

""No time! Help him!"" They both exclamed.

In a lavish room with expensive furniture with colors of pink, gold, and white the design were reminiscent of celestial bodies.

On the bed lay a young handsome man his Grey white hair with red tips sprawled across the bed, his lean yet muscular body was covered in bandages the only thing covering it aside the bandages were red boxers.

"Argh! My head! What happened?" He said as he grabbed his head from yhe bed. Getting up and opening his mismatched eyes one red the other blue.

"Wait, Lazarus! Where am I!? What happened?!" As if to answer his question a portal opened and Astra came from through it.

"Starlight, where am I? And what happened?" He questioned.

Astra summoning a luxury chair and sat in it at the bottom of the bed. "First what do you remember from the fight? And are you hurt anywhere?"

The hunters looked at the witch with a hint of suspicious in his eyes.

"All I remember was that I fought Lazarus, we went for a final clash, and after that I dont remember." He said as he tried to get up from the bed

"Well when the bounded-fields collapsed you had your sword through his chest and he had his arm through your right lung. You fainted afterwards. Lazarus could've killed you but, didn't he even healed you." She finished as she summoned a teapot and two cups.

Ragnar heard that and looked down at his chest, as he remember the battle and realized something else. "So, where is he?"

Astra looked at him after taking a sip of her tea. "Well the Bloodfires took him back to their mansion to help him. Oh and I want you to know he was just as injured as you but he chose to not only heal you, but also asked me to make sure you were okay." She said with a hint of disgust in her tone directed towards the young hunter.

And Ragnar didn't retorted back as he knew why she was looking at him like this. What type of person calls himself another they're friend, and even fights them with weapons used to kill other Supernatural beings.

"Haaaa" he let out a long sigh and hung his head low. "I'm probably the worst friend imaginable."

"You dont hear any complaints from me." Astra added.

As she got up she snapped her fingers and Ragnar clothing and tools appeared on a table on the side of the bed. "Make sure your okay, before you leave, I want you to know. I didn't touch your stuff."

Ragnar looked at her in confusion. "I didn't say anything though."

She looked at him with a 'yeah sure you weren't' look on her face.

Back at the Bloodfire estate

Inside a room Cassandra, Lason, Ksenia and Sebastian stood in a lavish bedroom looking at Lazarus who lay on the bed. His chest was covered in bandages that were drenched in blood.

"Why isn't he waking up?" Cass asked with a hint of worry in her tone.

Sebastian looked at her and spoke. "Well the weapon the Von Helsing used to pierce his chest was the Blood-reckoning. The blade was forged with holy silver, obsidian, Abraham Von Helsing's own blood, and unknown magic.

The weapon can inflict injuries that won't heal easily, it could even kill a vampire in one hit." He finished as he searched for something in his inner-jacket pocket.

He pulled out to cotrigis of blood and looked at everyone in the room. "Could everyone leave while I heal him?"

Upon hearing that Cass rose so fast her seat tilted over and fell. "You can be serious!? How are we supposed to be sure you won't do anything to him?!" As she questioned him smoke began to come off her body and her eyes glowed intensely.

But, before she could do anything Ksenia put her hand on Cassandra shoulders. "My lady i know this man, he may not seen like the most trust-worthy person but i can vouch for him." Ksenia said in a calm motherly tone. "And if anything happens you can take my life as compensation."

Upon hearing that Cass calm down as they heat coming off her body vanished. Promise me you won't harm him and swear it on the progenitors."

Sebastian looked at her and smiled. "I swear on the great ancestors I won't harm him." He said as he bowed.
