CALLUM
The first shot cracks the dawn silence. Silver bullet from Parliamentary hunter. It misses. Hits a wall behind me. Brick explodes.
Then chaos.
Gunfire erupts from both sides. Vampires charging with supernatural speed. Wolves meeting them with claws and fury. Fae warriors entering the fray with ancient grace and deadly efficiency.
Blood. Screaming. Death.
The battle begins.
I'm fighting immediately. Vampire hunter charges me. I shoot him. Silver bullet through the chest. He goes down.
Second hunter. I stake him. Wooden stake through the heart. He crumbles to ash.
Third hunter tackles me. We go down together. His fangs at my throat. I grab my knife. Stab him repeatedly. Silver blade into vampire flesh. He screams. Dies.
I'm on my feet. Moving. The battlefield is pure chaos.
