JC and Lance quickly ran towards the bar where Justin, Joey, and Chris were still hanging around. They telepathically told each of them to meet in the parking lot and get in the van. So as quickly as they got the message they ran to the van where JC and Lance were franticly looking for the keys.
"Yo, guys what's going on?" Joey asked as he climbed in.
"Xhang is here in town." Lance said as he pulled open the glove box.
"Shit." Joey said calmly raising both eyebrows.
"JC here!" Justin said as he put his finger to the starter.
The van started up and JC speeded out of the parking lot throwing Justin onto Joey's lap. Lance flew into the passenger seat and Chris smacked his head on the window.
"Ouch! Butt munch!" Chris yelled as he hit JC on the shoulder.
JC smiled and turned towards the school. It was a little weird, when they first saw Xhang it scared the piss out of them, but now it was kinda like oh well. They weren't scared and they weren't angry... Yet. JC pulled into the empty school parking lot. All the guys got out and looked around at the scattered booths and trash lying around.
"They must have left to get out of the rain." Chris said as he looked around.
"That would be a good guess." a thick southern accent cut through the air.
All five of them quickly turned around to see a Cowboy standing next to Nick. Lance quickly drew out his sword and got ready to fight.
"Oh watch it there little one, I might just use that thing on you in a way you never thought possible." Clarence said.
"Yeah, and who the hell are you to say you would?" Lance said with a crack in his voice.
"Oh, please allow me to introduce myself. The name is Clarence, Clarence Witaker." He said as he pulled off his hat.
The guys looked at each other and then back at him.
"Well, I'm impressed. How about you Justin?" Chris said in a sophisticated voice.
"Yes I totally agree here. It was short and sweet straight to the point. Oh and the thing with that hat, excellent. I give it an 8." Justin said in the same tone.
Clarence glared at them as his eyes turned yellow.
"Ahhhhhhh, Ohhhhhhhh." Came from all the guys in a mocking type fashion.
"JC! Look what Grandma Bea got me!" Markus said running next to the building.
"Markus stay there!" JC yelled as he started to run for the little boy.
A pair of powerful arms swept Markus out of his run and into the arms of Xhang.
"Hello Markus." Xhang said as he British accent was thicker then normal.
"H....Hello." Markus said as he held onto the teddy bear that Grandma Bea had bought him.
"Noooo!" JC said as he ran towards Xhang.
Xhang glanced up at JC and then held out his hand causing JC to fly back into a booth. Nick ran over to Xhang and took Markus. Xhang turned his attention to the rest of `N Sync, but was hit by a van and sucked under it. Clarence, Markus and Nick looked with horror on their faces as Chris jumped out of the van and jumped up and down saying.
"Yeah baby, from now on I'm known as the Hit and Run Slayer!" Then ran over to the booth were JC was lying with Lance and the rest of the guys helping him up.
JC looked around then looked at Nick, who had Markus.
"Give him back."
Nick just cocked an eyebrow and looked at the van, when a noise came from it. The van tipped on its side and Xhang rose to his feet with no help from his hands, or his knees, which didn't even bend. The guys looked at him with shock, as he didn't have one cut on him.
"You with the bad hair.. Come here." Xhang said as he pointed to Chris.
"Fuuuck you." Chris said as he stepped back.
Xhang's eyes turned green with anger, and he started to walk for the group. JC looked around quickly for something then found it. There only a few feet away was a dumpster, filled to the top with trash. JC ran over, picked it up, and threw it at Xhang. It pinned Xhang up against the back of the van and Justin shot it with a lighting bolt. The van exploded causing debris to fall all around the guys.
"Suck on tha... Bitch." Joey said as he took a step forward.
"No, Joey, you suck on it!" Xhang said as he picked Joey up and threw him to the side.
Joey flew and hit a tree almost 70 feet away. Hitting it so hard that leaves fell from it. JC quickly attacked Xhang. After several hits, Xhang finally fell to the ground, but was soon back on his feet. JC got back in his fighting stance and all the others guys came and got behind him, except for Joey who was still out cold. Chris had a broken piece of wood in his hand, Justin was glowing with electricity, and Lance had his sword drawn. Xhang rolled his eyes, and motioned for the four of them to come at him. Justin, being the cocky one he was, shot a lightning bolt at him. He moved to the side, and before anyone had time to react had thrown Justin away from the group. This happened with each of the guys except, Chris and Lance, who were standing back to back scared out of their minds. They couldn't see him, nor could they hear him. Until, both of them were lying on the ground, knocked out.
Xhang picked up the two men and carried them to the back of Clarence's pickup, then literally threw Chris in, he then opened the door, and lightly set Lance down in the back seat. Markus was fighting with all his might, but Nick had a hold of him, and was trying to calm him down. Clarence started the pickup and headed out of town towards an abandoned field in the middle of nowhere.
The ride took about 15 minutes, and Lance was just coming too. He could feel the bumps of the dirt road, and he could vaguely see the movement of a cowboy hat in front of him. He suddenly remembered the fight and his eyes shot open and looked around franticly. He jumped with a fury and scared the hell out of Nick who was in the front seat. Xhang quickly quieted him by putting his finger up to Lance lips. He pulled it away and pointed to the sleeping boy in the front seat.
Lance frowned and quickly began to think of a way out of the truck. But he knew that if he got out, Xhang would have him and Markus in a heart beat. Yet he didn't stop thinking. He began to look around were he was, then looked in the back of the truck and saw Chris lying there bleeding badly from his head. He had to think of a way to get Markus and Chris out.
"Stop thinking so much Lance. You're not getting away." Clarence said as he looked in the mirror.
"Why don't you shut the fuck up and drive you dumb hick fucker." Lance said angrily.
"Yeah dumb hick fucker." A soft and muffled voice came from the front seat.
"Markus!" Nick said shocked.
"Shut the fuck up, you dumb hick fucker." Markus said, as he popped his head over the back seat, climbed into Lance's lap, and whispered in his ear. "What's a Hick fucker?"
Lance didn't answer just put Markus' head on his chest and kept looking around.
JC and the rest of the guys woke up around the same time. Groans and mumbles came from the guys as they woke from their deep sleep.
"God my head hurts." Joey said as he rubbed it.
"Lance?" JC said as he sat up and looked around.
"Chris?" Joey said in return.
JC took a deep sigh and got to his feet.
"Lance?" JC said telepathically.
Lance quickly shot his head up as the truck came to a stop.
"JC you gotta get us out of here." Lance returned the remark.
"We will, where are you?"
Lance began to look around the area; he saw an old barn far off in the distance. JC saw the image in his head as Lance sent it to him like a picture.
"Ok Lance, we're coming just hold on."
"Get your ass here now... Love you!" Lance said in a happy kinda of mental sound.
"Love you too. See ya soon." He then said, "You guys ok?"
"No!" Joey moaned, "I think I dislocated my shoulder."
"Come here."
"W. what are you doing?"
"This is gonna hurt."
"Huh.. AAHHHHHHHHHHH!!" Joey screamed as JC realigned his shoulder.
"You ok?"
"NO!!"
"Hey Just, can you do something about this?"
"Uh. let me try." Justin said rubbing the back of his neck.
Justin concentrated, put his hand on Joey's shoulder and it started to get warm. After a minute of applying the heat onto Joey's arm, he said,
"How's that?"
"Great, thanks!" Joey said.
"You ok Josh?"
"Yeah, I'm fine!" JC said, "We gotta go save them."
"Where are they?"
"Some barn."
"How are we gonna find them? There's like a barn every 2 feet in this damn town!" Joey said.
"I know where it is. All we gotta do is find some wheels!"
"There's nobody in sight! And our van is kinda, blown up." Justin said.
"It's ok Just, you did what you had to do!"
"C... can I h. help?" A voice said in the distance.
"Who's there?!?"
"Um. i.. it's me Rob, James' friend."
"What are you doing here?!"
"I. I left after James said he was going to head home. T.. then I went for a walk and all hell broke loose so I hid."
"Did you see anything?"
"No, all I heard was some fighting, but I didn't look cause I was afraid that if I showed myself I'd get fucked up too!" Rob said unknowingly offending the guys, "I. I have a car if you guys really need it."
"Where?"
"I. it's just a little ways down that way."
"What kind of car?"
"An SUV. It's a rent-a-car so, just try not to. well just treat it better then that van you had."
"Why would you have a rent-a-car?" Justin asked, "Don't you live here?"
"Me? No. I live in New York. I'm just here on.. Business."
"Well, we really have to get going. Thanks a lot for the car! We'll try and get it back to you in one piece. If not we'll take care of all the damages!" JC said, "So could you just give us the keys and point us in the direction?"
"But wait, I'll go with you! I.. can help!"
"No, you can go and let James know that we are ok and tell him not to worry! I'm sorry, but thank you!"
"But..." Rob said with a frown.
"Look Rob, thanks for the car, but we need to go. Please just tell us where it is." Justin said a little irritated.
Rob lightly pointed down the street and the guys took of if in a hurry. The SUV was just down the road a little and the guys were quickly on their way. It was about 9o'clock; Justin was in the front seat with JC when he looked out the window. Running through the trees was a pair of glowing red eyes that was keeping up with the truck, which was going almost 80 mph. Suddenly, it just kind of disappeared into the trees.
"Yo Justin are you ok?" Joey asked as he leaned forward knowing the look on Justin's face.
"Yeah. Yeah I'm fine, just thought I saw something." Justin said as he looked back out the window.
"What?" JC said as he drove.
"I don't know. It's nothing, and if it is we'll deal with it when we get there."
Justin sat back in the seat of the truck. JC looked at the look on Justin's face and started to feel uneasy. Justin only had that look when he was truly scared, and this was obviously one of those times.
Nick had taken Markus from Lance and Xhang had Chris and Lance by the arms. Both were awake, and Chris was in a lot of pain. Lance on the other hand was trying to figure out why they were walking in the middle of this huge field with nothing around but that old barn....
"The BARN!" Lance said out loud, then quickly shut up.
"What?" Xhang said in a calm voice.
"If it was any of your business he would have told you asshole." Chris said angrily.
Xhang ignored Chris and pushed them both to Clarence. As Clarence held onto them, Lance and Chris watched as the tall Asian Vampire roamed around the field and in a deep, and echoing voice said,
"Temple of Darlos, open to me. I'm the god Xhang Xe, and I have with me, the one who shall be the King of all Vampires."
The ground started to shake then crack, a light came from the ground as the dirt moved from one side to the other and an archway rose from it. Chris and Lance looked at each other then back at the arc. It had strange carvings on it and words that didn't make any sense.
Xhang smiled and he motioned for Clarence to bring the two over to him. As they came into view of the opening. All there was, was complete darkness. From the full moon that night you could tell there were stairs leading down but that was about it.
"So.... what is that thing?" Chris asked worriedly.
"The temple of Darlos..." Xhang said and after a slight pause both Xhang and Lance said at the same time, "The King of Vampires."
Lance looked into the dark path ahead of him and began to see things in his mind, images that weren't his. He saw a battle between an army of Vampires and an army of Myan Soldiers. There was a tall Vampire leading the army and his eyes weren't a yellow hue, they were a green. They were the same color as Lance's eyes. He was more muscular, but just as handsome. He had a face of anger, and short black hair. The images Lance saw scared him. The Myan army was being destroyed and the Man....God... Darlos in the middle of it all. Lance knew that that is what he would become.
"NO!!!!! AHHHHHH! GET OFF ME!!" Lance yelled as he began to struggle.
Clarence was trying to hold on, but Lance's strength doubled and he broke away from Clarence's grip. He began to run away, stumbling as he ran. The images came back to him, more images of battles, more deaths and Darlos, the reason for them all. Lance was running, he felt himself being picked up and he was still running, but didn't notice. The memories that were in his mind were too powerful. Then the image of Darlos dead, and his head in the hands of a badly beaten Slayer. Lance passed out and Xhang landed. Torches in the temple lit up, and Clarence took Chris, Nick, and Markus down the stairs, and Xhang took Lance.
"You fuckin asshole what are you doing to him?!" Chris yelled as he was weak, but he still fought to get away from Clarence.
"I did nothing to him Christopher." Xhang said as he carried Lance down the stairs.
Lance's body was limp and Markus was looking over Nick's shoulder at him.
"Nick?" Markus whispered into his ear.
"Yeah Marky?" Nick said as he rubbed his back.
"Why did you let that bad man kill my sister." His voice was soft and hurt, but not overwhelmed.
Nick was quite for a moment as he thought out the situation. Xhang wanted Lance to take the power of Darlos, and there were four people that had nothing to do with it.
"Fuck." Nick said.
"There's the barn!" JC yelled as the SUV pulled up to it. "Now Lance was just a little ways down, there!" JC pointed to a dark field.
"I don't see anything Josh." Joey said as he looked out in the field.
"There's a light I can see it. Lets go!" He floored the truck and as he hit the button for four-wheel drive, it made its way through the field.
"What is this?" Justin asked as they looked at the doorway just in front of them.
"I don't know. But Lance is down there." JC said as he started to walk for the arc.
"What are you doing? We don't even have any weapons." Joey said as he grabbed JC's arm.
"Lance's swords aren't here either. He had both of them with him when they took him." Justin said as he looked at JC.
"Look we don't have time for this. If they took Lance why I think they took him, then we don't have time." JC said as he looked at the two. "OUR friends are down there, with three monsters that want to kill two of them. Now if you stupid idiots want to stay out here and worry about it, fine, but I'm going in, with or without you." JC said harshly.
Justin and Joey watched as JC started down the stairs into the unknown. They looked at each other and then ran down the stairs after JC.
It was a long winding path down the stairs. The torches gave an eerie glow that flickered in and out with weird pictures. They were all painted in blood, as the guys looked at them, they noticed that the blood was still fresh. Joey looked at JC, he saw nothing in his eyes, but could tell he was scared because his Adams Apple rolled in his neck hard.
"Put the little one down on that table! And put the Slayer there!" All three of them heard a thick British accent.
JC put his finger up to his lips to tell them to be quite as they made their way further into the temple. Xhang's voice got louder and louder as they approached the large lair.
"Don't touch them in anyway. For this to work we have to have no distractions!" Xhang said with a smile on his face. "Now where is the Bible."
JC, Justin, and Joey looked at each other and mouthed the word "Bible?"
"Did you hear something?" Clarence said as he looked around the lair.
Xhang's head quickly popped up and motioned for Clarence to go check it out. Clarence moved towards the hallway and looked around. There was nothing there so he went back to the table where Chris was.
"It was nothing." Clarence said.
On the wall, the guy's were hanging like spiders. JC used his head to motion to the guys where to go. Each of them did as told and went their separate ways.
"Hallatle brtyelsa gottowsa banontithue...." Xhang said as he started the spell.
"Who do you think you are? Justin or something?" Chris said with a cocky attitude and Xhang looked up at him and smiled.
"No my dear Chris. That is the beginning of the end for you." Xhang said as he walked over to Chris who had been tied to a post in the middle of the lair.
Suddenly, the ground lightly began to shake, Xhang looked back and the floor broke away to revile a fire pit. Chris swallowed hard and tried not to show his fear, but Xhang smiled and looked at him.
"I can hear your blood running faster through your body. That is good, I need blood like that. The more scared you are, the better I get." Xhang said as he grabbed Chris' arm.
He lightly ran his finger over Chris' bicep and then drove his fingernail into it. He screamed out in pain as the blood began to flow down his arm. Xhang took a silver cup, put it under Chris' arm and the blood began to drip into it. He was bleeding so much, that he passed out and went limp. Xhang pulled the cup away and then licked the wound on Chris' arm. The cut healed and Xhang turned his attention to Markus, who had been pinned to the table that was next to the fire pit. He was crying and fighting, tying to get loose from the retrains that had him tied down to the table. Nick was pacing back and forth, trying to figure out if he should stop Xhang or not. All of a sudden, Nick looked up at the ceiling, and his eyes grew wide as he saw JC crawling on the ceiling. JC saw that he had been spotted and thought that was the end of it, but Nick winked at JC and then turned to talk to Xhang.
"Xhang?"
"Yes Nick?" Xhang said with a snarl
"I was just wondering, if... Well if I could kill... Markus. Cause JC love's him, and I want to hurt JC.
Xhang stopped and looked at Nick.
"No, but thanks for asking, before doing it." Xhang said then looked back to the little boy, then walked over and took the teddy bear from him and rubbed its ear.
"You, my young friend, are going help usher in a new life for us. You and everyone else here. And when it's done, they will remember your name for centuries to come." Xhang said to Markus.
"I want JC." Markus said with tears in his eyes.
JC felt his heart drop as he saw the little boy, that only in three days he had come to think of as his own, laying with a monster over him. But, as heart broken he was, he continued to climb over the wall.
"Now is the time for us!" Xhang yelled.
He took the cup of Chris' blood and ran his finger through it, then rubbed it down the amulet on Markus' chest. The amulet began to glow a bright red color, then grew dim. Xhang ripped it off Markus and walked back to Lance and put it on him.
The clouds outside began to roar with anger as lightning flashed in the stairwell. JC, Justin, and Joey got into their positions on the ceiling that would put them in attacking spots for the three Vampires in the room. A mist started to grow around Lance, and that was when they decided to drop from the ceiling. JC landed next to Xhang and kicked him back away from Lance. Xhang slid to the edge of the fire pit before stopping. His eyes widened when he saw how close he was and quickly jumped away from it as fire shot from the pit towards him.
Justin took Clarence by surprise and beat the shit out of him, knocking him back against the wall. He made a mad dash for Chris, who was still knocked out and tried to untie him but was unable to do anything. He used his magic and the spell that Xhang had used to hold him up failed and Chris fell to the floor. Justin quickly picked him up and ran him to the side where he would be out of danger.
Joey landed next to Nick. He turned into a minotaur, smacked Nick to the side with his horns and turned back to normal. He started to pick Markus up, and when he turned around Xhang was standing there, his eyes solid green. Joey tried to turn and run but Xhang stopped him and kicked him in the head. As Joey was falling, Xhang grabbed Markus from his arms. Xhang held him above his head, and then said,
"TO YOU DARLOS! I GIVE YOU THIS CHILD FOR YOUR POWER!" Then threw Markus towards the fire pit.
JC watched in horror as the small child flew through the air. He was about to jump and grab him, when Markus just stopped in mid air. JC looked over his shoulder to see Justin holding his hand out, using his powers to stop Markus. JC smiled then turned his attention back to Lance, trying to figure out how to get him out of the mist.
Justin started to move Markus away from the fire pit and to the edge where he would be safe. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Clarence came up and body checked Justin, causing him to lose the concentration he had on Markus. Markus fell towards the pit, but was close enough to grab onto the edge and hold on.
"JC!!!" Markus yelled in fear.
JC quickly turned around to see two small hands hanging on the side of the pit.
"MARKUS!" JC yelled.
He quickly ran over to the side and grabbed Markus. JC tried to pull him up but couldn't. Suddenly, with a quick jolt, Markus slipped further into the pit. JC, still holding onto him, fell to his stomach, still pulling. Then again, another jolt. JC used all the strength he could, and dug his feet into the solid rock beneath him. It stopped them from moving, but he still couldn't pull Markus up.
"JC I can't hold on!" Markus yelled as tears streamed down his face.
"You can do it. Come on Mark!" JC yelled over the roar of the fire.
"YOU'RE NOT STOPING THIS!" A louder yell came.
JC looked away from Markus only to see Xhang walking towards him, with huge fangs, and green eyes. JC didn't let go of Markus; Xhang took JC's feet out of the holes he had made and began to slide forward with Markus going deeper into the pit.
"HOLD ON MARKUS!" JC yelled as he did his best to hold on.
Xhang was about to push JC in and out of nowhere, Joey came in as the minotaur form and knocked Xhang against the other side of the temple. Then Joey grabbed JC's feet and started to pull. JC started to pull and together they started to pull Markus up, but Xhang came back, as something bigger than Joey was, and the two of them started to wrestle around, changing shape to keep counter acting each other.
JC slid forward and soon was hanging halfway over the edge with Markus there. Then inch by inch the two slid close to death in the fire pit. JC had his eye's closed and was using all of his strength to hold Markus up. Markus looked down at the fire pit, and saw that if he didn't let go of JC, he would pull him with him. Markus let his little hands loosen the grip on JC's
"MARKUS HOLD ON!" JC said. "MARKUS I NEED YOU TO HOLD ON!" JC opened his eyes, and looked into Markus' big brown eyes filled with sorrow as he smiled, and said.
"I will always be with you... I love you JC." then Markus slipped out of JC's grip and like slow motion, fell into the pit and disappeared into the flames.
JC had a blank look on his face as he stared at the pit for a little while longer, he then quickly pulled away and looked around the temple. Justin and Clarence were locked into hand to hand combat. Justin kicked Clarence in the stomach sending him flying backwards. Clarence landed on his back and quickly got back up. On the ground in front of Justin, was Clarence's hat. He picked it up and looked at Clarence, suddenly a glow went over the hat and it turned to dust.
"Oh.... Oooops." Justin said putting his finger up to his lips, then smiled at Clarence.
Clarence charged at him, and Justin threw a fireball at him. Clarence ducked just in time and the fireball hit the back of the temple.
"Damn it! Stay still!" Justin yelled as he waited for Clarence to get up.
"You know, kid, I think I'm going to say. He who fights and runs away, lives to fight another day!" Clarence said as he ran out of the temple as fast as he could and up the stairs
"YOU COWARD!" Justin yelled. "Get your ass back here so I can kick..." Justin said as he was halfway up the stairs and saw a figure outside, larger then Clarence by far, followed by a loud scream that came from Clarence as blood flew up against the wall.
"FUCK THAT! I ain't putting up with nothing like that! No way!" Justin said as he ran back down the stairs as Joey flew across the room, and he saw Xhang running for him. Justins hands qucikly came up, and Xhang got hit with a lighting bolt. "HA HA HA!" Justin laughed as he helped Joey up.
They both heard a deep growl come from behind them and looked back to see a big dog about 6ft high on all four legs looking at them. They calmly looked back at each other, then screamed and ran the other way.
As Xhang was getting up from the hit of the lighting bolt, JC kicked him in the side of the head as hard as he could sending Xhang back to the ground, only a couple of feet from where he was. He rose from the ground and looked at JC who was in his fighting stance. He got to his feet and brushed off his Jacket.
"You know Joshua," Xhang said nicely, "You're not very intelligent."
"Why is that?" JC asked quietly.
"Well, any normal slayer would have noticed the two gentlemen behind you with the shotguns.
JC turned around and there was Snap and James standing with shotguns pointed at JC.
"What the hell do you think your doing?" JC yelled in anger.
"You were too trusting of me. You should have known better then to just come to a total stranger for help. Oh and by the way... thanks for the computer. It helped Xhang and I out greatly." James said with a cocky smile.
"Yeah. Dumb ass." Snap said.
JC turned back to look at Xhang but he wasn't there, then turned back to James and Snap. They put their shotguns up to their shoulders and were about to pull the trigger when out of know where they lifted up into the air and flew across the temple, their guns lying just in front of JC. The guns then went into the air and Chirs' voice said,
"I knew something was weird about that little fuck."
JC smiled and then looked around for Xhang. James and Snap got to their feet, but were frozen in fear, seeing what was coming towards them, the large dog, with glowing red eyes, and blood stained fangs. Neither of them moved, and in one quick swipe, both their heads rolled off their shoulders and their bodies fell to the temple floor. The dog then let out a huge howl and ran into the darkness.
"What the hell was that?" Chris said as he watched the beast run out.
Joey, Justin, and JC had Xhang backing up against the far wall of the temple. All three of them were ready to fight. Joey was still in the shape of the minotaur, Justin's hands were glowing, and JC was in his fighting stance. Nick sat on the edge of the fire pit looking down into it where Markus had fallen. He started to lean over more, and more, when suddenly, a hand of fire came up and grabbed him by the head and pulled him into the pit. He screamed as loud as he could, which got the attention of the guys. When they turned back to Xhang, he was gone.
Joey, Justin and JC looked around franticly. Justin took a step away from the guys and was thrown back, and slammed up against the wall, followed by Joey. Both got up just as fast as they could, and saw Xhang standing in front of them. They both got into a fighting stance and attacked. Both of them punching and kicking as hard and as fast as they could. Blurs was all a normal person would see, but JC saw every arm and leg fly up, as well as, Xhang blocking every one of them without the slightest strain whatsoever.
Justin was the first to fall. Xhang caught him with a backhand and Justin went flying into the back wall. Joey was still fighting Xhang the best he could, he told JC to go get Lance and JC did just that. He was able to pick Lance up now, because the mist was gone, so he moved him behind the table he was on. Lance was slowly coming around, but was not in any condition to fight.
JC jumped over the table only to see Joey on the floor with Xhang standing over him, with his fangs exposed. JC ran over as quickly as he could, but halfway there, Xhang flew up into the air, grunting every inch, and fell to the ground, hard. Chris quickly turned visible, took a rock, and smashed it on the head of Xhang. Xhang's body went limp, and Chris moved Joey and Justin out of the way, along with JC helping him.
"Nice work Chris." Justin said as he slowly came back to reality.
"Ah, it was nothing really. Are you guys ok?" Chris asked with a cocky smile.
They sat Joey and Justin down, Justin was holding his side, and Joey just kinda sitting there.
"You Ok? Just?" JC asked, as Justin's eyes grew wider than they had ever been in his life.
JC quickly turned around and something like a bat was behind them. It didn't have any wings, but it appeared to be some kind of bat. All the guys stood up with shock as they looked ahead of them.
"YOU dumb little shits! You think you can stop me! You are all nothing compared to me! You're just a group of BOYS that sing and dance. I AM A GOD!" The thing said with a raspy demon sound to it.
JC took a step forward and got in his fighting stance and the others got behind him. Xhang's claw flew out and Chris, Justin and, Joey flew back against the wall. JC watched as they flew through the air, hit the wall and blood shot out from their mouths from the heavy impact against the wall. JC looked back at Xhang who was moving from side to side, like a tiger stalking it's pray.
JC didn't take his eyes off him. He screamed and jumped into the air. Xhang jumped too, and in mid air Xhang kicked JC in the side of the head. As JC was falling, he flew back into the air, then landed hard. Xhang was standing on the other side of JC about 20 feet away. JC got to his feet, and looked at Xhang. He rubbed the side of his face gingerly, and got back into his fighting stance. Xhang, still twenty feet away managed to uppercut JC. JC flew back into the wall, and the stone cracked where he hit. He quickly got up, then got kicked in the stomach by Xhang. Then again, and again and again. JC fell to his knees and Xhang picked him up by his shirt, held him and pulled his fist back to punch. But JC used both of his hands and hit Xhang as hard as he could with all of his strength. Xhang fell back a little in pain, then got his composer back, but JC was already hitting him. JC had to swing up to hit the massive figure standing before him. He was doing ok, moving in a blur, and Xhang was taking steps back from the punch. But then as JC's fist was coming to contact Xhang's face, he caught JC's fist and he could hear his bones pop under the pressure. Xhang then brought his hand back and threw it down. It hit JC's chest, and he fell to his knees. Xhang repeatedly hit him in the chest with his fist. Blood began to slowly come out of JC's mouth as he felt himself blacking out.
Then things started to pop into his head images. The fights that had occurred when they fought Lael, everything that Xaina had said everything. He knew then what he was supposed to do, and understood what he could do. He felt himself come back to reality and could feel the power of everything he was flow through him. He felt the pain of a fist hitting Xhang's chest. He had his eyes closed, he grabbed Xhang's hand and stood up. He could hear Xhang hiss out in pain. JC slowly opened his eyes.
"As I told one of your kind before. I am the Chosen One, and there is nothing that will come between me and my friends." JC calmly.
Xhang used his free hand to hit at JC. When he was about an inch away a magic field came up around JC.
"Nothing." JC said as again, he let go of Xhang.
Out of pure rage Xhang threw all his power into one shot, and threw it at JC. JC didn't move. He held his hands up and his eyes began to roll back into his head. A blue ball of energy formed in front of his chest. Xhang started to back up, as the particles of light pulled together to form the ball. JC looked right at Xhang and the ball shot out faster than Xhang could even move hit in and he flew into the fire pit and a huge ball of fire shot to the ceiling.
JC fell down holding his sides, and started to cough up some blood. He looked over to the three bodies lying not far from him. He crawled over to Justin, Joey, and Chris. Justin was the closest and JC turned him over showing a lot of pain as he did it. Justin's body moved over and JC rubbed the golden locks back and then put his two fingers up to his neck, JC's eyes widened.
"Justin!" JC started to shake just trying to wake him up. "Justin come on man! JUSTIN!" JC yelled as tears started to run down his face.
JC took a deep breath and then went over to Joey, and Chris. They both had pulses, but they were weak. JC got up and was in shock. He had lost Markus, and Justin. He slowly walked over to the table where Lance was, but stopped in his tracks, there was Lance staring at him. He had an evil smirk on his face, and his eyes were cold.
"Hello baby." Lance said as he took a step closer to JC.
JC looked at him with sad eyes.
"No." he said as the tears started to boil up in his eyes.
"Oh don't cry baby. We will be together I'm still the same Lance."
JC fell and had a shocked face. Lance kneeled down in front of JC and lightly grabbed the side of his face, and turned it to see the cuts and bruises.
"Well, they sure did a work on you." Lance said, as he picked up JC, carried him to the table, laid him down then rubbed the side of JC's face.
JC looked away from him and said.
"Just kill me and get it over with." JC had given up, he had lost too many people to worry about it.
Lance simply shook his head and turned around.
"Don't turn your back to me!" JC raised his voice.
Lance turned back and laughed, he ran his hands over JC's body and JC felt his ribs heal, and felt all the pain stop.
"Now isn't that better?" Lance said, then moved his head for a kiss on JC, who quickly rolled out of the way and looked at him.
"Yes, thank you."
He didn't know what to do. The most powerful Vampire, his boyfriend, his band mate, his teammate stood before him.
"Oh, quite a problem you've got here. Do I kill Lance, or do I let him be. I love him, but he is evil now." Lance said copying JC voice perfectly, no hint of anything else "I can hear your heart beating in a constant rhythm. Boom boom. I can smell you from over here."
"Don't." JC said still crying but being pushed more to the brink.
"Don't what?" Lance said in a sinister voice.
"Don't tease me."
"Tease you. I love you JC. I have no intention of hurting you. The others yes. Well except for Justin over there seeing as he's kinda... Dead." Lance let out an evil laugh.
"How'd you get to be this way?" JC asked confused about what had happened since Xhang hadn't done any spells.
"Oh, Three sacrifices was all it took. One of innocence, one of loyalty, and one of power. My guess is Xhang didn't think he would be the third. I think he was planing on you."
JC walked around the table and looked at Justin lying there.
"It's rather sad isn't it?" Lance said as he walked up behind JC and put his arms around his waste. "So young, so talented.... Oh well. Now to what I need to talk to you about." Lance said walking away from JC and Justin. "JC are you listening?... JC?" Lance rolled his eyes and pulled JC away from the three of them. "How would you like to Join me?" Lance said as he looked at JC.
"Join you! HA! IN case you have forgotten, I kill Vampires!" JC said.
"Then die with the rest of them!" Lance said as his face changed.
He grabbed JC by the neck and picked him off the ground. Then he stopped and looked over where the three bodies were.
"Oh dear me. I seem to have misplaced our band mates. Just stay right here. I will be back." Lance said throwing JC to the side with one hand.
JC felt Lance's strength feeling like a rag doll being tossed around a room. He felt weird as he slowly landed and was unable to move
"Oh Justin? Joey? Chris?" Lance said as he stepped in front of the fire pit. He waved his hand over it, and it sealed. "Come out come out where ever you are. Oh now I see you!" Lance said still looking straight ahead, held his hand up in the air, and Chris fell from the ceiling. "One little band member laying on the floor, one Vampire God, about to take his soul." Lance lightly sang to himself as he kneeled down to Chris who was backing away. He grabbed Chris' foot and pulled him back to where he was. Lance lightly crawled over him, and smiled showing his fangs. His ears had grown to a point, and his nails were as black as the night sky. "Hey Chris!" Lance said with a lot of cheerfulness. "Now, we have one of two choices Christopher, You A- Can Join me, and try to get my stubborn boyfriend over there to join us. Or B- you can just die and have no life.. I like the second one!" Lance said with an evil smirk. Chris tried to teleport, but Lance grabbed his arm while he was in the middle of the teleport and stopped him. "Tisk Tisk... Did I just get you while you were in the middle of a teleport? I did! Whoa! That was so cool... Now what was I saying... Oh yeah. You dying." Lance said as he moved his head towards Chris' neck. Then his hand grabbed something in mid air. "Hey there Just... I will be with you in a sec. I just need to eat something really quick." Justin slowly appeared and so did Joey. "OH MAN! I'm liking these powers. This is so much fun." Lance said. Justin had a look of shock cause he knew his spell had worn off. As JC saw the figure of Justin appear a new hope grew in him. Lance's spell to hold him in place was easy to break now that he knew his full power. But he didn't react right away he simply stayed where he stood as if the spell hadn't been broken. "My My Justin how ever did you stop your heart like that?" Lance said as he stood from Chris who was laying on the ground still.
JC moved away from the spot where he had been, and crawled up the wall, with no sound. Lance beat up Justin and Joey in a matter of seconds. So the three of them were lying on the floor next to each other.
"You know JC?" Lance said as he turned around and saw that JC wasn't there. "Down here now!" Lance said in an angry voice as JC fell from the ceiling and landed on the floor, getting the wind knocked out of him. "My poor Baby. I'm trying to tell you that fallen will hurt you."
"Oh Jesus Lance spare me the dramatics okay?" JC said as he got up. Lance moved to the side and looked at him. "Well are you going to finish what you started?" JC looked down his body and held out his hands.
"I don't want to. I love you JC." Lance said with a lost tone in his voice and his eyes turned back, as did his face.
"I love you too." JC said as he closed his eyes and put his head down.
Lance walked over and gave JC a hug, and in a quick jerk, JC pulled off the amulet and crushed it. Lance uppercutted him and he hit the ceiling with the top of his head, then fell to the floor and hit his head again knocking him out.
Lance began to shake as he felt the power getting drained out of him. Suddenly, a deeper pain came as he felt the second part of his power being destroyed. He quickly turned to the Vampire bible and saw three fireballs hit it, then it disappeared. Lance fell to the floor and Chris crawled over to him. Soon all the guys had woken up, and they walked out of the temple to see the morning sun peaking over the horizon.
"Well," Justin said holding his sides, "Where is Demon boy at?"
Joey, Justin, and Chris looked towards JC. JC closed his eyes, and said,
"In our hearts."
Then he and Lance walked towards the blue Dodge pickup parked there in front of them.
Where is the SUV?
The End?
