**CAVE**

A light skinned Man was seen seating on a throne made of bones. He wore a red fur coat over a black robe.

His name is Drexel, King of the rouge supernaturals and younger brother of Dracula, the vampire king.

A tall teenage boy with blonde hair came inside and bow.

.

Merlyn: father, those losers failed, allow me to go out once and I will turn many humans to vampires.

Drexel smile at his son

.

Drexel: not now son, you are not ready yet.

Merlyn: but father, what is so hard in turning humans to vampires.

Drexel: it's not about turning them into vampires my son, you won't understand.

Merlyn: then make me understand father.

Drexel sigh a little in defeat, his son took after his mother, would never give up until they get him to talk.

Remembering his dead wife make him sigh sadly.

.

Drexel:the humans we kidn*pped were to awaking my grandfather, Matthias. He was a direct descendant of Aldric and Nyla, the first ancient vampire, The Ancient vampires are the first vampires, as well as the most feared and powerful of all in existence. They are very reclusive and most belief them to be mere myth. Nyla and Aldric had six children. Aldric was seeked by the Pharoah, the Pharaoh heard stories of Aldric's powerful magic and made him his high priest. The Pharoah wanted Aldric to use his powers to make himself immortal, in order to rule egypt forever. Aldric created an immortality spell, but the spirits of nature angered for abusing his magic to create the spell, stripped him of his power. The Pharoah was displeased now that Aldric had no magic to help with his plans ordered him and his family to be executed. Aldric fled, but the guards caught up Aldric and attacked his family. A guard killed his youngest son, Aldric and his family distraught killed the guards. Nyla couldnt bear to lose anymore of her family and pleaded with Aldric to use the spell he created and make them immortal in order to protect themselves. With the spirits of nature abandoned him and with grief clouding his mind, Aldric discovered a new way to channel magic using the human souls to channel even greater power. Aldric used his spell to make his family and himself immortal He was the most powerful vampire of his time and other supernaturals don't dare cross his path. He was a man who loves challenges but he was not evil nor good, even the supernatural King don't dare him. He loses his temper when my grandmother was killed and out of anger of going through another death after his whole family was killed by pharaoh, - pharaoh later seek the help of the spirit of natures in helping them defeat Aldric and his family who gave them a dagger, called the Elders Dagger, capable of killing immortals - almost wiped out every supernaturals but was stopped by the joint effort of every supernaturals kings and queens and to finally trap his soul and burned his body.

Merlyn: still dad, that doesn't explain the question I asked.

Drexel: the humans were kidn*pped to use them in performing a ritual to release his soul into another body.

Merlyn:so that's why you kidn*pped them. Then where is the person that will receive is soul

Drexel:I know this may shock you son, but you are the most compatible to receive his soul.

Merlyn looked at his father like he was joking but the serious look he saw made him think otherwise.

.

Merlyn: why me of all people, why not you dad.

Drexel: there are some things you won't understand son. Now go prepare son, I have a mission for you

Merlyn: really dad

Drexel:yes son

.

Merlyn left the room happily going to his room leaving Drexel to himself. He then reached into his robe and bring out a picture of a woman and staring at it.

Drexel:I miss you every single day love.

He then put the picture on his chest hugging it.

**TWO DAYS LATER**

.

Tayo:got eyes on target, but they seems to be showing themselves something on a tablet

Tayo whispered to the holographic display of Victor on his gauntlet.

.

After our first mission, Mr Kay congratulate us and now, we are currently on a mission after receiving information about an illegal exchange happening at this abandoned factory. For some reasons, the exchange will be happening at night.

Tayo and I are currently in the factory hiding behind some crates discreetly looking at the exchange between a man in a rough military shirt and a brown trouser and with a black scarf tied around his neck. At his back are others either dressed in a military shirt or trouser with any type of trouser or shirt respectively. Facing the man was a young white teenage boy dressed in a black Polo with black trouser and white sneakers. Standing at his back are men and women dressed in a casual manner.

The man was currently showing the boy something on a tablet and the boy nodded and gestured to someone at his back and a men carried a black briefcase to them and give the boy. The boy opened it and it turned into a computer.

The boy then showed the man something on his laptop and the man nodded and folded the machine back into a briefcase. They then shook hand and departed with the man turning back and the boy doing likewise.

The men then went into some war cars and drove away.

We then followed the boy and men and women outside to meet four Jeeps parked. A man opened the back door of the second car to the last for him.

The boy was about entering when he was shot and turned to ash.

The men and women took cover but the boy remained still looking for where the shot came from.

Thankfully for Tayo, the factory was near a river so he will be able to cope very well with them.

Another bullet hit another man on the shoulder penetrating the skin of the man.

Me: must be a wolf.

Tayo:no wonder he didn't turn to ashes.

.

I tapped my gauntlet and an hologram of Shade appeared on it.

.

Me: you got us covered.

Shade:yes, you can attack, I got your backs.

.

I turned to Tayo and nod at him.

We jumped out gaining the attention of the supernaturals

I raised my hand to the sky and thunder struck two men killing them on spot.

Tayo controlled some water from the river and used it in creating four water bubbles and use it to surrounded a man and three women burying then completely in the bubbles they past out after some seconds they fainted due to lack of oxygen and then Tayo released them before turning the water to shards and dispatched it embedding in many of them, even the boy was hit on the thigh. He put his hands on the shard and pulled out the shard and grunted before the wound close up. He then unleashed his claws and ran at me slashing my face before I could even move but the wound heal immediately. He ran at me again but this time, I focused and I started heating up stopping him on his track and started walking back.

I heat my self up a little more and I saw some of them started running away

I then stopped heating up and returned to normal.

.

I evolved a fireball and throw it into a wolf who was about leaping at Tayo.

I turned to the direction where Shade was shooting. And nodded at him, he then fired an RPG into the cars blowing them up.

I caught a fast fist headed for my face and smirked at him.

Me: there goes your ride.

.

Then gave him a punch in the stomach before giving him an uppercut.

I looked for the boy and saw him making a call, he then cut the call and saw me looking at me before sending a smirk my way.

Me:why is this oyinbo smirking when they are loosing

Tayo seems to hear me and kick a woman trying to attack him on the leg joint sending the woman to her knees, then hit her on the neck sending her into unconsciousness.

He moved towards me.

Tayo: maybe he thought the others has escaped

The boy the zoom away and was followed by the supernaturals but some were shot down by Shade.

Shade then came down from where he was and set down the cleaner, emitting a wave and cleaning up everywhere.

Tayo: sometimes I wonder where all those go.

.

.

.

.

As the terrorists were going, their cars suddenly stopped, they get down to check it but Victor, Tope and Lateef jumped out courtesy of Lateef stopping the car with their hface covered.

The terrorists try shooting but the Lateef jumped forward and thrust his right hand out stopping at the bullets midair. The bullets then dropped to the ground and he raised his hand up and all their guns and knife strapped to their waist flew up, lateef then mould his hand into a fist ✊ and all the weapons crushed together turning into one big ball of weapons waste.

He then brought his hands down and some unlucky ones were hit by the gigantic ball, he then raise it up again and use it in swiping some of them against the cars creating a shape on the cars knocking them out.

Tope then blow a little gust of wind swiping all of them off their foot. He then raise them a little high above ground and dropped them all down colliding with the ground making them unconscious.

Lateef then disassemble the giant ball and use the tendrils in wrapping all of them to where they laid unconscious. Victor then walked to the car and picked up the briefcase and then back to the group.

Victor:you didn't even allowed me to fight one.

Lateef: next time boss.

They started hearing sounds of rotors rotating and looked up to see an helicopter approaching.

Tope:oh look, our ride is here. SENDAI, send down the beam.

They were engulfed in an orange beam teleporting them into the chopper. The chopper drove off heading to our direction.

.

.

We were waiting when we saw the chopper approaching and then were beamed up to the chopper.

We then headed to the Head Quarter.

.

.

We arrived at the HQ and Victor handover the briefcase to Mr Kay who opened it to reveal a computer.

They then later discovered that it was a controller in activating a nuclear weapon. The weapon was tracked and recoverd.

.

.

**CAVE**

.

Four trucks approached the cave and parked outside.

Merlyn came outside and the four men driving the truck came outside and bow for Merlyn.

Merlyn smiled and walked to the first truck and opened the back door to reveal men and women of different ages shackled to the truck .

Merlyn then smiled.

Merlyn: idiots,they are complete idiots, can't believe we outsmarted them so easily, escort them to the dungeon.

.

He then went back inside the cave to his father to meet him on the throne.

He bowed a little for his father.

.

Merlyn: when last have you went outside father.

Drexel: don't know son, I have nothing to do outside

Merlyn: till when Dad.

Drexel: let's forget about that, how did the mission went

Merlyn: although we have some casualties, we were able to succeed.

Drexel: good son, have the witches start preparing for the ritual.

Merlyn: okay Dad

.

He then went out of the room.

.

.

.

**SEND HQ**

We were following Mr Kay after he instructed us to follow him to apparently get our "new looks".

We entered a room to see it being an hospital room.

Mr Kay: this is where you get your new looks, now come forward, pick how you want to look and voila.

I went to the table where different pictures are placed with micro chips attached.

.

I choose a light skinned one with black waving hair and took the chip and went back to Mr Kay.

Mr Kay: insert the chip into your gauntlet and that should do the trick.

I insert the chip and I felt nothing.

Me: did it work.

Mr Kay: have a look yourself.

I then walked to a mirror and have a look at my new face.

I was now light skinned with the picture I picked.

Lateef was now light skinned with a different face and a blue hair.

Tayo remained light skinned with a different face and a bald head.

Tayo: I have always desired to be bald.

Me: bad choice

Tope was now a little light skinned with a long black hair.

Tope: I love my new look

Lateef:me too, especially my blue hair.

Shade: now what

.

Mr Kay brought up a briefcase.

.

Mr Kay: you go to your new house. It is SEND safehouse in an estate, an eight bedroom flat for the six of you, you can't keep living here. And your account are created for you and credited with twenty million naira each (handing the six of us our ATM cards), you still get to bear your name but not your surname, if ask say you don't have. Your new cars are parked at your house. Sending you the address Victor, now you may go.

Me: thank you sir for the money.

Mr Kay: don't worry, you guys deserve it.

.

Victor then lead us to a car and drove off to the address. We entered the estate and arrived at our house. Everything about the house is voice command.

We saw three black Lexus jeep and three white Lexus Jeep.

Me, Tope and Victor took the white Jeeps while the rest choose the black. We entered the house to see a large living room with a book shelf place against a wall and a large plasma TV.

We then decided to choose our rooms and get some rest.
