Draken placed his fingers together and held his hand with the other. "My opinion on Vampires are simple really, I dont think they are evil at all, they can be strong and magnificant creatures, sometimes, many times even more frightening than some Daedra. However I do not think they are barbaric brutes!. Tell me this, is a Wolf or a Mountain Lion evil for hunting a wild deer or a person? no, they are hungry and they need to sustain themselves by eating. Vampires only kill what they need to survive, three or four people a month. Werewolves are more brutal as they seek to kill the innocents." He said, looking at the mysterious man and then back at the Elf. "You may find the more civilized vampires to be less savage, old and noble and they sometimes seek to feed on their prey while they sleep, they dont kill them either." Draken said to them, he even noticed the librarian Dunmer hearing him out. Draken did want to reveal himself but he couldnt help but wonder if the mysterious man was a Vampire Hunter. The Elf seemed alright, having no harsh feeling. But now is was best to stay in the shadows, for when he reveals himself later, it would be too late to react. ------------------- Raven saw Yoko in the streets. She walked slowly to him and greeted him. She did not bear a smile nor a grin but a simple angered glare. "Your still here? good....I got something for you. A task, you will be rewarded greatly and it involves assassinations!". She whispered. "Draken will give us more information on when and where and how we shall accomplish this, he requests you meet him there right now in the library".
She said to Yoko, staring at him with her fearsome eyes. She finally managed to crack a sinister smile. "Are you in?". She asked.

Elja watched Draken then gave a smile. “true I think that sounds right.” he giggled. “but on this matter, uhg…don’t know who I feel worse for, the vampires or the hunters, cause someone is going to get hurt.’ he sighed. “people…shouldn’t hurt other people, I don’t care how different they are.” Elja sighed. The hooded person looked toward the High Elf and sighed. Before looking back to Draken.
“sure a interesting idea you have on the matter, I will think it over.” he chuckled.
---
Outside, Yoko was relived Raven wasn’t there to pick a fight or something, and watched her, she wasn’t half bad looking, hardly looked like a vampire at all. He quickly shook the though from his mind and listened to her sighing deeply then thought on the matter a moment, he’d normally say no possible tell them to take care of it themselves, it didn’t involve him. But this time, the elf seemed to be dragged in partly it was his fault. “Alight….I’ll listen to what you want me to do.” he stated. “but..” he sighed. “I used all my arrows --up.” he stated and his eyes trailed from her to the book store as he nodded.

Draken`s face turned red, he appeared as he was about to burst. "The Vampire Hunters are most likely going to fail! If they go looking for trouble in the lion`s den then they will find it, I gurantee that!" He said out loud. ----------------- Raven nodded. "Very well". She said to him. She pulled out five of her back arrows, she had 11 of them. "You can take these, they are very sharp and very swift! killing targets as if they where a rat". She said, handing him her arrows. Raven made her way to the library. She noticed Draken on a conversation with A high Elf and a cloaked figure. Raven spared a greeting to them and she looked over at Draken, ignoring the two others. "I need you to come with me". She said. Draken looked up to her and then back at the two people. "Excuse me, buisness I need to attend". He said, bowing down respectfully. Draken followed Raven to a corner where no one was. "The plan is simple...I shall go to the Two sisters Inn and *drink* away with the Vampre Hunters, when they are drunk and lost, we will lead them to BloodCrust cavern, a haven for vampire travelers. Raven! you and the assassin will go there to warn the vampires.". Draken said, looking them both straight in the eye. Raven released her pony-tail, her black hair waving around. "I shall warn them about the incoming attack...we will wait outside at nightfall, you can lure the band of fools into the cave, when they least expect it we strike from behind!". Raven whispered. Draken nodded. "Excellent. Assassin, are you in with us?". He asked, looking at Yoko.

“hah…nice.’ the hooded man seemed to be amused then nodded. “well I wish you well in you endeavors.” he stated turning back toward the bookshelf. Elja tilted his head and shrugged, then looked around. “well…. I don’t want to be a vampire, but I’d like to be friends with one.” he giggled. Had no one realized how odd this one was….for a high elf. >.>
---
Outside Yoko looked at Raven blinkingly then smiled a little taking the arrows, “thanks.” he smirked. “look better that any I’ve ever used.” he stated then looked toward her and nodded fallowing her to the library. Then looked to Draken and nodded a ‘greeting as they went over to the corner and he listened to there plain.
Yoko took a deep breath and nodded. “sure lets clean up this mess.” he stated. “Only as long as I don’t get eating.” he said with a smirk, meant it as a joke but quickly nodded. “alright.’ he took a deep breath and looked to Raven. “I wont slow you down, more so once I have my old clothes back.” he added. Suddenly as he went to speak again Elja caught the sight of him and yelled out and waved. “HI YOKO!” he laughed. Yoko felt like he was slumping over, eyes twitching lightly. “uhg….” he blinked dumbly. “hi…” he moaned.
“who are your friends?” Elja bounced over.

Draken smiled at Yoko`s comment. "No harm will come you to, Raven can assure you that!". He said. Raven frowned and stood there, she was about to leave until a High ELf came by shouting the name Yoko, it seems he was speaking to the assassin. Draken gave a diminshed smile and introduced himself. "I am Draken Decimus Vladmir". He said, bowing down as always. Raven raised an eyebrow to Draken. It was not like him to speak to humans this often and friendly. Raven started to speak. "I am...leaving". She said, walking out the door and heading out the city.

“hehe. Elja.” the High Elf grinned beaming with joy…so much joy, Yoko wanted to puke. “yeah, he Elja.” he gave a half heartedly wave, but well he owed him for his help. “need something?” Yoko asked. “Nope.” he shook his head then watched Raven leave, she seemed distressed about something, Elja wanted to go after her, but decided leaving Yoko and Draken alone after saying hi would be rude, no?
Yoko sighed and sratched his head. As Elja shook his. “nope just saw you, and wanted to see what you were up to.” he grinned and nodded to Draken. “you have plains to night?” he asked tiling his head leaning toward them a little. “If you want to, I was going to go out and pick some of those herbs I needed, if you want to come.” he nodded. “then we could come back and eat something, or go exploring or anything!” he nodded. Yoko sighed deeply. Wanting to just say no, but then again…he owed him something and sighed. “well…I’m going to help these guys with….something, but if I’m back soon enough…I guess I could help you.” he stated.
“oh yay sounds cool what are you doing?” he tilted his head then paused and shook it roughly. “never mind I know I know! These are more fighters guild buddies and your going on a secret mission!” Eljja stated with a ‘gasp’. That looked like it hit Yoko in the face, as he looked dumbfounded, bewared and amused at the same time. “exactly…yea…these are…part of the fighters guild.” he said sweat roped and brow twitching lightly. It took a lot to get to Yoko, but some how Elja managed. Was Elja stupid or just really …really strange!?

Draken clenched his fists and teeth. No one was suppose to get involved..no outsiders. "It was a pleasure to meet you but im afraid I must get going". He said. Draken went off the to the Two sisters Lodge. Inside there where many Vampire Hunters....too many. Draken sighed and mumbled to himself as he walked forward. They where drinking away and eating all sorts of foods. Grokan-gro Balog was eating away and gulping down his food with a large jug of beer. He was flirting with Mog gra-Mogakh and boasting about himself. "So there I was!! with my warhammer, swinging it like it was nothing! killed two, three, TEN vampires at once. It wasnt easy i`ll tell you that but nothing is too big for Grokan to handle..NOTHING!". Draken approached him slowly. "Am I glad to be at your side!". He joked around. Grokan stood up and patted Draken on the back, he was very drunk, barely able to keep still. "Dont worry! I am the strongest and I ca---*hickup* I can-- crush the bloodsuckers with all my might! haha". He said.
Draken snickered, his plan was working. Draken went and sat down with the rest of the group that where arm wrestling on the table. "Gentlemen!". Draken shouted at the table, bypassing the cheers and laughs of the group. "Tonight we will infiltrate the cave of the vile beasts and we will slay them! I have found them hiding at BloodCrust cavern! we will strike at 6:00 tonight, they will be sleeping, we must all split up once we get inside the cave, to make sure they dont escape. Drink your beverages, eat your food and have fun with the women for tonight the real fun begins!". He said loudly, shouting, acting like a hero. The Hunters all cheered, Argonians, few Orcs and Elfs and two Dunmers all screamed, throwing their cups of beer on the floor and shouting for more. ------------------------------------ Raven waited a the gate for Yoko to show up. She would need an extra hand in this. Few men and woman passed by saying "Good day". Raven snarled and ignored them. Night was almost there. Just a few hours left.

Later that day as Raven awaited Yoko at the gate he was having a few issues making sure Elja stayed behind, finely, got off with telling him stay in the Inn, Yoko would leave, it would be a game to see if Elja moved any within the time Yoko was gone. Well Yoko’s imagination might have sucked, Elja however bought it so that’s all the mattered, no?
Yoko sighed leaving the inn, in his shouted armor, bow and arrows strapped to his back, along with his short sword on his belt. as he walked though town and toward the gate. Up ahead seeing Raven and walked over a but faster. “Alright. Sorry for taking so long, I had….something to take care of.” he sighed, just praying Elja wasn’t stupid enough to fallow him. “but lets be on our way before that strange guy gets any ideas.” he sighed and walked along with her.
As he walked, he got to thinking about walking into a next of vampires….to an logical extent it made him a little worried. But they said he’d not be bothered…but was it true? Mean…Raven could use him as bait….Yoko sighed shaking the thoughts from his head that weren’t helping him feel any better.

Raven continued walking, listening to Yoko speak. She did not say a word at all until she got there to the cave entrance. Vampires where nocturnal creatures but sometimes they stayed awake in their dens and caves during the day. Raven approached the door and took a deep breath. She opened it slightly, it was cracked and broken, a very old place indeed. Raven turned to Yoko. "Dont underestimate them. They can be nutorious at times and I have a feeling that they might attack us. Watch out for their fangs, dont let any of them bite.". She said. Raven pulled out her Silver sword and kept it in her hands as she walked deep inside the cave. To their advantage or atleast Yoko`s, the cave was illuminated by the small torches on the sides. She could feel them nearby, their cold bodies. Raven walked closer, faster, time was not to be wasted. As soon as she turned around the corner she saw three of them. A dunmer vampire assassin female, a male Wood Elf archer and a Orc female warrior. Raven did not bow nor do any respectful gestures, she just came off with a warning. "You are all in trouble! there is dange--". She continued to warn them until the Orc female hissed and pulled out a large Axe, she swung it to the side and ran towards Raven and Yoko. The Wood Elf archer readied his bow and aimed at Yoko while the female Dunmer vanished in a split second. Raven pulled out her sword and charged at the Orc. Raven flipped in the air with her sword in her hand. She jumped over the Orc warrior and slashed her along the back. The Orc female shouted in pain as she swung her axe towards Raven, trying to gut her. Raven shot multiple fireballs at the Orc Vampire. Who got hit dodged it doing front rolls. Raven extended her hand to shoot out electricity until she was unale to. Raven tried again but no lightning shot from her hands. She turned around and saw the Dunmer vampire, she silenced Raven with a spell, she was unable to use any spells. Raven growled as both Vampires where getting closer to her. The Wood Elf archer aimed at Yoko, ready to fire.

“right” he nodded and entered the darkness taking his eyes a little wile to get used to it. But soon as the vampires started coming up, Yoko swiftly drew his bow and a arrow. “Raven!’ he gasped hoping she was okay. He then looked ahead at the archer and smirked pointing and ready, and let it fly and stabbed into the vampire’s shoulder also knocking its bow out of its hand. “Back off!” he shouted readying another arrow. “only here to warn you of impending doom, or I can make sure this next hit take your life!” he hissed readying it another close vampire. [sorry so short! x.x)

Raven shouted angrily, she ran to the Dunmer vampire, she jumped on her chest using one foot, with that foot Raven proppeled herself to the Orc female, kicking her in the face with her other foot. Raven grabbed her sword and plunged it deep in the Orcs back, the orc female turned to ash quickly. The Dunmer vampire heard Yoko speak and she dropped her dagger. "What doom you speak of?". She asked.

Yoko gritted his teeth knocking one back with his bow, with a tha-wap! He looked back to the Dunmer. “Hum.” he nodded. “Don’t think, I’d risk coming here just to be your snack, but…” he kicked one vampire back down. “there are a bunch of vampire hunters in the city, we need be rid of, and you would get in on it too, you could get yourselves a good meal.” he watched the Dunmer, she seemed to be the smartest of the group, he still had his blade, but not pointed toward her. [Lol okay dude I'll cya later ^^]

The dunmer stared at him and then left further in the cave, making a hand motion signaling them to follow. Raven entered the small room, where many other vampires rested. They all awoke surprised. The Patriarch was another Dark Elf with elvish heavy armor and a nice elves claymore. The dunmer female spoke to him. "My lord, we have visitors, they are here to warn us about vampire hunters in the area". She said, keeping her head down. The Patriarch made a strange sound as if he where humming. "What would cause this sudden act of charity?". He spat angrily at Raven. "Why would you risk your lives to warn us?". He added.
Raven bared her fangs and teeth. "Dont dare question me! have you no knowledge of who I am?". She asked, looking at him straight int he eyes and then turning to all of them. "You are all turnbloods..infected. I am of noble bloodline. I am Raven Meridius Vladmir!". She said loudly, booming with pride and anger, she was not in the mood for hostilities of her own kind. "I have been through history and lived it all and I shall not be talked to with disrespect!".
The Vampire all stared at her and the Patriarch nodded slowly. Now he knew how high in the vampiric hierchy she was in and what type of vampire she was. "Forgive me, milady". He said, he then turned to Yoko and stared at him for awhile. There where about 17 vampires in all in the cave. Most of them where in the small room, some of them where outside of the room, hearing the conversation. "How are there hunters here? how do they know of our presence?". He asked, curiously.
Raven stood there, face to face with him. "Me and my brother came to Skingrad, we fed and left the bodies there, many guards where killed in the process. It was a plan that did not go like we thought it would". Raven said, partially embarassed. The Dunmer Patriarch scoffed at her. "Then you brought the hunters to our doorsteps! you failure will be the cause of our demise! they could be here any moment". He said, all the other vampires got their weapons ready for any attack made or any other intruders.
Raven trned around to all the others, she spoke loudly so all could hear. "My brother is with the vampire hunters! he is one of us, hidden and masquerading as a human. They are not here, they are at the city, drinking away and eating, getting drunk, believing that they will defeat us. They will arrive in approxemetly one hour.". She said.
Raven leaned down on the ground and started to draw the position of attack. "I will need some of you to wait outside, archers and assassins. You will remain hidden, invisible for when they arrive at the cave`s mouth. The warriors and Spellswords will be further in the cave, hidden from the naked eye as well. My brother will scatter them off and they can be picked one by one. They prove greater in numbers than us but we can still overpower them by using our mind and our stealth. When they're numbers drop, we make ourselves known and slaughter the rest!". SHe said. Raven was good with strategizing plans and defeating her enemies. She had been shown to do this alot throughout her life, while Draken just used brute force to get the job done. "I will hide atop of the cave, I shall give the signal for our attack!, choose your places quickly and get ready!". She said to all of them. The patriarch was impressed, very intrigued, he turned to all of them. "You heard her! get to your places and prepare for the ambush!". Raven turned to Yoko and asked. "What position do you have?".

Yoko took a deep breath shielding his knives as they entered the room. He tied not to seem annoyed or frightened by them, but all those eyes on him was a little overbearing, he just ignored it. He watched Raven draw out the plan, quietly. And shrugged off his thoughts for later. “Yeah.” he sighed. Then looked up at the Vampire’s leaders. After the battle formations were decided, Yoko sighed. ‘Well…I can hide outside, near your station, if you like, I’m fine wherever as long as no one gets any ideas.” he smirked, then checked his arrows out before taking out a small cloth from his pocket. And sniffed it lightly. “right…I have enough of this, could put anyone to sleep in inhaled.” he stated bluntly.

Raven nodded. "Very well, get to your assigned position then". She said, turning aroud and heading for the outside. Raven crouched down atop of the cave, waiting for Draken to appear with the hunters. Her bow and arrows ready. ---------------------- It was 8:04, nightfall. It was time to go. Draken rallied to the group, it was about twenty five of them. All of them full of armor and swords. Grokan had a large warhammer, bigger than Draken`s body. "Lets go hunt bloodsuckers!". He said to them, lying behind his teeth. The group shouted and ran out of the Inn, drunk like never before. Draken offcourse led the group. He ran outside of the town at night time, faster than everyone else. Draken ran up the hill to see the cave, atop of it a dark figure he immedietly recogznied as Raven. He waved his hand slightly to her.
Raven turned around to see the others in their position, she nodded them, signaling it was time. The vampires and Yoko. The vampire assassins and archers dissapeared and vanished. Raven turned to Yoko. "Stay hidden behind that tree!". She then vanished in thin air, keeping her bow and arrows hidden.
Draken smiled as the group approached BloodCrust cavern, they all stood in awe as they got closer and closer. Their swords unsheathed and their torches lit, they all ran inside.
