All right, another chapter in the life of the Miller brothers. This one was a fun one to write so I hope you enojy it. Comments always welcomed and enjoyed.

The jumbo jet was quiet as everybody on board checked their equipment. A dachshund walked up to a terrier who was in a seat, one eye closed as the other had a patch over it.

"Ten minutes til touchdown general."

"Good." he said.

He opened his good eye and looked at his troops before closing it. Then he let his mind wonder til he remembered why he was on this flight.

"You wanted to see me Prime Minister?" the terrier said saluting to a female afghan hound.

The hound looked up before standing.

"Yes general I did." she said in a smooth voice. "Our country has been laughed at for far too long. Its time we did something about it."

"What do you propose?"

She walked around and handed him a folder as he looked through it.

"That is your assignment."

"You want me to take control of an amusement park?"

"Plus the building in the middle of it."

"What's inside the building?"

"A super computer used to control a tactical satellite around the earth. With that satellite, we can launch a global attack of epic magnitude."

The terrier closed the folder before looking at her.

"So why have I been assigned this? I know nothing of computers."

She laughed softly before walking behind him and wrapping her arms around his waist and whispering in his ear.

"Consider this your punishment for your withdrawal in Al Zhabi."

"My men were being slaughtered."

"MY MEN are raised to die for their country general." she snarled. "You of all people should know this."

The terrier growled making the afghan smile.

"When do I leave?"

"In two days," she said walking back to the desk. "So get your troops ready."

"As you wish prime minister."

The terrier turned for the door before being stopped.

"Oh yes general Ifrit, one more thing."

"Yes?"

"If you fail, we would deny our involvement with your attack."

"I understand."

Ifrit opened his eye and growled again.

"Little bitch. maybe when I get a hold of this satellite, I'll target her first."

"We're landing general Ifrit."

"Okay."

The plane landed down in a secret air strip as Ifrit and his troops filed out. Waiting for them were two tractor trailers along with a badger.

"Good evening general. Did you travel well?"

"Yes, thank you. Is everything ready?"

"Yes sir. Your informant is waiting for your arrival."

"Good. How long til we get there?"

"Almost an eight hour drive."

Ifrit nodded before hopping in the front seat.

"Saddle up people. Make sure to grab some shut eye."

"Yes sir." his troops shouted before filing into the trucks.

The trucks started with a roar before heading down the dirt road onto the highway.

"Thanks for the lift," Dan said getting out the taxi.

"No problem," the cab driver said. "Anything for a hero."

"Hero?"

"Your on the news today again."

"I see. Thanks."

Dan closed the door and walked up the entrance of the station. Once he entered, a round of applause was heard.

"There's the man of the day," Billy laughed.

"Don't you guys have paperwork to be doing?" Dan chuckled.

"Don't be some modest."

Dan laughed as he walked up stairs getting handshakes and pats on the back. He walked into his office where Russ, Angel, and Emily were.

"Glad you came back," Russ said, feet up on the desk. "You got some explaining to do."

Emily walked over and gave him a deep kiss, murring with content as she felt him squeeze her ass.

"You owe me a week." she growled.

"I was occupied, sue me."

"What was happening when I called you? You had me worried you know."

Dan was about to answer when Susan's voice crackled over the intercom.

"Daniel, the president's daughter is on line six."

"Oh boy," Dan groaned.

He walked over and hit the speaker button.

"Yes Pearl, what can I do for you?"

"Hi lover. Just calling to see if you made it all right." Pearl said with a cheery voice.

"I made it fine. Thank your father for me."

"He was kind of disappointed you didn't stay and speak with the press."

"Not really my thing. How are things going with you and Fred?"

"Going good I guess. He treats me nice, but he's not you."

"Sorry."

Pearl gave a sigh before speaking.

"You really did something to me that night. When you entered me, I felt complete."

"Um.....Pearl?" Dan said looking at Emily who was baring her teeth.

"Even in your injured state, you took me. My god I never felt so alive."

"Pearl?"

"And when you claimed me with you cum, I knew I made the right choice for my secret lover."

"Pearl please." Dan pleaded.

Pearl sighed before speaking again.

"When can I see you again baby? I need you. I want you."

"I don't think I'll be alive longer enough to see you again."

"Don't worry. Emily doesn't have to know. I really fallen in love with you Daniel. I know I threw myself at you like a whore but I'm not really like that. If you ever do break up with Emily, all you have to do is call me."

"I'll make a mental note of that."

"Okay. Bye Daniel. I love you," Pearl said happily kissing the phone.

Dan let out a sigh and hit the end button before letting out a grunt as Emily drove her fist into his stomach.

"You slept with the president's daughter? Just how horny are you?" she growled.

"It wasn't like that. Its hard to explain."

"Tonight," she growled grabbing him by the collar and pressing her nose to his, teeth bared. "I'm going to dominate you so bad you'll beg me to kill you."

"Sounds kinky, can I watch?" Russ laughed.

"Thanks for the support." Dan said getting to his feet.

Irons walked in holding a paper a couple days old and smiled from ear to ear.

"Dan my boy, you made SNDU proud. We've been getting calls all day asking for help."

"I wasn't trying to stick out."

"Nevertheless, we're the station everybody depends on now. Which means I can give everybody a raise."

"Sweet," Russ yipped.

"Oh yeah, Honda news will be here shortly so look decent."

"But chief I don't want to speak to the press."

Irons was already out the door when Dan spoke up. Dan let out a sigh and sat down in his seat. Emily followed and sat in his lap, her head under his chin as she murred.

"Answer me truthfully and maybe I'll go easy on you."

"Okay."

"Was she better then me?"

Dan was quiet for a minute before looking her straight in the eyes.

"She was better. But she doesn't have the one thing you have."

"What's that?"

"My heart."

Emily smiled and kissed him deeply. She broke off panting and licked his nose.

"Then I guess its only right to say this, I love you Daniel Miller."

"I like you too Emily Summerstone."

"Jerk," she laughed, bopping him on the head before kissing him again.

Billy walked in with a knock and a smile.

"Yo Dan, Honda news is downstairs waiting for you."

"I don't wanna." Dan pouted.

"Chief said if you don't go, you get suspended."

"Dammit."

Dan got up with a groan and headed downstairs.

"We are at the informant's place general Ifrit."

Ifrit let out a yawn and stretched in the cramped truck. He looked out the window to see a large clearing overlooking an amusement park on an island with a large building in the middle. There was a large clump of trees to the left of the building making it look serene.

"I take it that's the target?"

"You are correct general," a voice said behind him.

He turned to see a hippo cleaning his glasses. The hippo had on a pair of shorts and an extra large shirt to cover his stomach.

"Who might you be?"

"I am Desmond Jones, or otherwise known as the Wizard."

"The Wizard?"

"Yes the Wizard. Cause there is no computer I can't crack and no system I can't hack."

"And your going to get control of the satellite?"

"I've already been paid in advance. But I'll need some time to create your IDs to let you in."

"How long?"

"An hour tops."

"You have thirty minutes." Ifrit said turning back to the truck.

Desmond mumbled something before heading back into the his camper. Ifrit looked at the building then the bridge.

"That bridge has a heavy security checkpoint." the badger said.

"Sounds like fun."

"You will be posing as technical support agents. They come once every two weeks to repair and clean the system."

"When do we go?"

"At eight, when the amusement park is slowing down."

Ifrit looked at his watch which read twelve thirty in the afternoon.

"Plenty of time to go over plans."

_______

"You want us to go where?" Dan said, a mouthful of Chinese food.

"To the annual guild meeting. It would be good for you." Emily said.

"Yes. You get to see how we do things." Angel added.

"Plus it'll be a good experience for you."

Dan looked at his brother who shrugged.

"What harm could it do? Besides, we might learn more about mother." Russ said.

"I hate sitting in meetings though." Dan groaned. "When is this so called meeting?"

"In about thirty minutes." Angel replied.

"Kind of short notice don't you think?" Dan said.

"It was Emily's idea. She figured if she told you earlier, you would make up some excuse not to go."

"You damn right I would."

Russ chuckled before getting up.

"Well then lets go."

Dan got up with a groan and huddled into the car.

"So where is it?" Dan asked pulling out.

"The old town hall." Emily said.

"That place is old. I thought the mayor was going to have it remolded or torn down?" Russ said.

"Merlin talked to the mayor and convinced her to leave it as is."

They drove for a bit until they saw the pointed tower of the town hall. The parking lot was full as they barely found a space. Getting out, they walked up to the front gate which had a barrier along with two stone gargoyles in front.

"Um......what's this all about?" Dan asked.

"This is a neutral zone. Which means any magic used inside will be backfired at the caster. Only certain magic is allowed." Angel said.

Dan walked up to the barrier only to have one of the gargoyles snap at him.

"Hey what gives?"

"Oh yeah, weapons are not allowed."

Dan took out his gun and handed it to the gargoyle. It encased it in a bubble before swallowing it.

"If I don't get that back, consider yourself a pile of rubble."

It gave him a growl before the barrier dropped and they passed in. Walking into the front door, there was a ton of people talking and laughing.

"Lots of people here," Russ said looking around.

"Its mostly guilds from all over. But the three main ones usually hold the majority." Emily said.

"Emily, so nice to see you again," a voice said to their right.

They looked to see Alucard in an all white suit and tie, Ginyu at his side.

"How are you Alucard?" Emily said with a slight bow.

"Wonderful, thanks for asking. Who are your friends?"

"Nobody to be concerned about." Emily said.

"This is Daniel and Russell Miller," Ginyu said.

"Ah, the offspring of Sheryl. A pleasure to meet you finally."

He extended his hand in friendship. Dan shook it nonchalantly.

"You look just like your father."

"I'm honored."

"And you must be Russell, the smart one everybody says?"

Russell extended his hand. When he shook it, his sense went haywire. His tail was on edge as his fur was sticking up. Despite the disarming appearance of Alucard, Russell's instincts screamed at him something with this man was wrong. Still he gave no outward sign, but he did bare his teeth some in a common canine way that said in a polite way, "Hello there, I hate you."

"I hear you are a very creative and cunning person. I would love to have those kind of qualities in my business."

"Sorry, but I'm already employed by the SNDU."

"I see. Well if you ever change your mind, I'm not hard to find."

"And neither am I."

They stared at each other, smiling and thinking something different.

"You are strong Russell, but I will have you in my hands whether you like it or not."

"Russell, Daniel, so glad you can make it."

They looked behind to see Merlin walking up. Alucard let go and took a step back.

"I see you met Alucard."

"Yes. He's an interesting person. Kind of boring, but interesting." Dan said.

"Boring you say? Well I hope in the future I can persuade you differently." Alucard said with a smile. "If you'll excuse me," he said with a bow.

They watched him leave before Merlin spoke up.

"He is a crafty one. Don't be deceived by him. But anyway, so glad you could attain."

"Not like we wanted too. We kind of got hijacked." Dan said looking at Emily who stuck her tongue out playfully.

"Well I'm glad you could come. You should find it must informative."

Sanzo walked up wearing his warden clothes.

"Ah Russell, how are you today?"

"Doing good Sanzo. How is Lara doing?"

"Great. Thanks for asking."

Dan looked in shock at what was happening.

"Did I miss something?"

"Nothing much," Angel chuckled.

A mallet started to bang on a table as what looked like an angel was at the head of the platform. It had six wings and a sliver crown on its head. Pitch white eyes looked at the crowd as it started to take its seats. Behind him were nine other angels, each with a single pair of wings.

"The fourth annual guild meeting will soon begin. Please be seated in your designated area."

_______

Ifrit looked at the ID through a microscope.

"Very good work. Impressive."

"That's only a scratch of what I can do."

"I'll be looking forward to it. When is the IT crew coming?"

Desmond looked at his watch which read four thirty.

"In about three hours and thirty minutes."

Ifrit looked at the small island again through the binoculars. His cell phone rang as he picked it up.

"How long till you get a hold of the satellite?"

"In about three hours prime minister."

"Good. Don't forget general, I have people watching you."

Ifrit let out a growl.

"I understand prime minister."

"Be looking to hear good news."

Ifrit hung up with a snarl.

"I'll fix you, you little cunt. Bruce, come here."

A goat walked up and saluted.

"You wanted to see me general?"

"Yes. You know my men good right?"

"Yes general."

"Good. See if any of them are in the prime minister's pocket. I don't want a knife in my back once this assignment is over."

"Yes general." Bruce said about to leave.

"Oh yes Bruce?"

"Yes sir?"

"Do it in private."

"Of course general."

_______

Everybody in the hall, took their seats as the angel stood up.

"Thank you all for coming to this annual meeting. For those of you who are new, my name is Icarus and I'm the overseer for this meeting."

The hall was divided into three sections, a left, right, and middle. Merlin's section was positioned on Icarus's right, Alucard to his left and another one in the middle where the brothers saw Evan.

"We shall began the meeting by reviewing the Treaty then discussing anything that needs to be discussed. I'll explain the Treaty to the new people. Please bear with me."

Icarus explained the Treaty like Merlin did but added extra things the brothers didn't know.

"Now that that's out the way, I'll start the open discussions. Does anybody have any issues that has happened in the past years?"

Alucard raised his hand.

"The floor recognizes Alucard Graves."

"Thank you."

Alucard stood up and straightened his tie.

"It has come to my attention that certain people are trying to sabotage my businesses. Now I know I'm not suppose to intervene, and I know that corporate espionage is common the world over, but I draw the line when it costs the lives of my employees."

"Do you have a name?" Icarus asked.

"Better. I have pictures."

A large projection screen was lowered behind Icarus as a picture of a short haired man in a black outfit at what looks like a computer main frame. He was apparently downloading large amounts of data. The recording showed a security guard coming in through the door behind him. The man in black spun around and using a silenced gun killed the guard with a single shot between the eyes.

"The guard who was just killed had a wife, and two newborn children."

"Do you have a name for the accused?"

"Damon Carlos sir."

"That's a lie," Damon said getting up.

Everybody looked his way as he stood his ground.

"I have done nothing of the sort."

"Don't deny it Damon. I finally caught you."

"You lie blood sucker. What proof do you have besides a picture? That could be anyone of my friends."

Alucard pulled out a small recorder and hit play.

"Trust me Ann, Alucard will never know."

"I don't know Damon. You know what happens to people who goes up against him?"

"Ann, I need you my love. Don't back on me."

"Damon......."

"I promise when this is over, me and you will spend our next honeymoon in Hawaii."

"Okay Damon, I promise."

"Thank you love. I need to go. See you when I come home."

Alucard hit the stop button as Damon was visibly shaking now.

"What have you to say against this Damon?" Icarus asked.

"I'm innocent. That tape is a lie."

"Your wife said to back down Damon. She's knows not to double cross me."

Damon gritted his teeth. He was trapped and didn't look like he was going to get out.

"With your permission Icarus, I would like to exercise my rights."

"Now hold on," Michelle said standing up. "This man is a respectable person in our guild. I won't allow it."

"Would you rather take his place? I could make you feel pleasure like never before." Alucard said with a smile.

"Your charm won't work on me demon."

"Ouch, that hurts."

"Enough." Icarus said.

Everybody went quiet.

"Even though I detest violence Damon, there is too much evidence against you to defend yourself."

"Wait. You can't do this."

"Therefore, I allow Alucard to exercise his rights."

"Thank you Icarus. Ginyu, if you please."

"Yes Alucard."

Damon stood and fled to the front door. He opened it only to see Ginyu there.

"There is no escape."

Ginyu placed his hands on the sides of Damon's head. Damon let out a scream as he felt his life being drained by the second. His body started to steam as his skin and tissues melted off his bones. Ginyu ripped his skull off and put it in his cloak. With a quick wave of his hand, the pile of gunk was gone. Michelle gritted her teeth and balled her fists.

"No hard feelings Michelle. Just business."

"You son of a........"

"Stop," Evan said with his arm out. "This is what he wants. Don't fall for his game."

"You know me well Evan. I'm flattered."

Evan looked at Alucard, hate in his eyes.

"Now then," Icarus said loudly. "Is there anything else somebody would like to discuss?"

"Yes there is." Michelle said.

"The floor recognizes Michelle Jones."

"I would like to bring up two situations that could be the end of us all."

"What would those be?"

"The sons of Sheryl Ann Miller."

________

The afghan let out a sigh, basking in her afterglow. Her middle was damp with her and the male seed. She stuck one finger inside and pull out, a trail of white stuck to her finger before she licked it cleaned.

"Now that's what I'm talking about." she moaned happily.

"You can tire people out with your energy." the rabbit said laying next to her.

"I thought rabbits were suppose to have unlimited stamina?"

"When it comes to you, they meet their match."

She chuckled before wrapping an arm around him.

"Are you sure about killing Ifrit? He's a valuable general."

"He's questioned my authority and disobeyed orders for far to long. I should've done this a long time ago."

"You do realize he won't take this laying down?"

She smiled before climbing on top and kissing his nose.

"I'm not worried. I have my new general to protect me."

"Who?"

"You silly."

"Me?"

"Do you accept General Raphael Cousing?"

Raphael thought about it before wrapping his arms around her waist.

"I accept prime minister Naja Milano."

"Good. Now lets seal the deal," Naja said with a murr before easing herself down onto his penis.

_______

"The offsprings of Sheryl Airi Miller? They are here?" Icarus said.

"Right here Icarus. Stand up young ones." Merlin said.

Dan and Russ stood up as all eyes were on them.

"So you are her sons? Interesting," Icarus said. "Which one is Daniel?"

"That would be me." Dan said raising his hand.

"And the wolf is Russell?"

"Yes sir."

"You look just like your father Daniel."

"Thank you."

Icarus looked at Russell again.

"Why are you a wolf Russell?"

"Long story made short, I got into dad's spell book on a dare. Miscast a spell, this is the result." Russ said rubbing the back of his head with a sheepish smile.

"Hmm, lets see what you look like though."

With a wave of his hand, Russ let out a gasp as a mirror appeared in front of him displaying what he really looked like. He had long black hair, fairly built and tall with beautiful blue eyes.

"Impressive. A spitting image of your mother."

"If I may continue Icarus," Michelle said.

"Yes of course."

She got up and walked to the front.

"As you all know, they are the sons of probably one of the most powerful wizards in the world and also the most dangerous. Their actions over the years has cost us millions of dollars and lots of damage to our city."

She pointed to the both of them and growled.

"If these two are not contained, we will see another Sheryl Miller rampage. They have yet to tap into the magic they have deep inside themselves. When they do, you can be sure they will destroy us all."

"That's not true. They are learning to control their magic." Angel said.

"By who? Merlin? Let's not forget its Merlin who caused the war fighting with that demon Alucard."

She snapped her fingers as the projection slide turned on.

"Lets see how your so called training is Angel."

The first slide showed a wrecked building. Cops and firefighters fighting a fire while tending to the injuries.

"This was the Vault building. A global computer company that was destroyed by misuse of magic. Twenty people died while thirty were injured."

"That wasn't magic. That sick bastard had the place wired with explosives." Dan said.

"But who ignited those explosives by using a fireball?"

Dan went quiet because he was the one that did it, not knowing the place was wired.

Another slide showed water coming out of giant holes.

"Here's another example of magic abuse. This one used a tsunami underground and flooded the entire downtown area. Businesses lost money cause everything was water logged."

Another slide was shown picturing a giant tornado tearing everything apart.

"Take a good look. The chaotic malestorm, casted out of rage."

"That wasn't out of rage technically." Russ added.

"Oh? Then explain why you casted it?"

They were quiet as Michelle turned off the projector.

"So Angel, tell me how this training is going?"

"Well......"

"Exactly. Nobody can control them. So I plea to you Icarus, let the Faction seal their magic before its too late."

Michelle sat back down as idle chatter was heard making Dan and Russ look around.

"I knew this would happen," Merlin said sadly.

"Maybe we should leave." Dan said getting up.

Icarus pounded his mallet making it go quiet.

"Do you have anything to say in your defense Daniel or Russell?"

_________

Ifrit watched the sun set, a combat knife in his paw as he cleaned his claw nail. Bruce walked up with a couple of soldiers.

"I think I found the spy."

"Who is it?"

"Akito Ripshaw."

"Humph, I kind of figured that."

"What shall we do?"

Ifrit stood up and grinned.

"Nothing. Does he know you found him out?"

"No."

"Leave it at that then. When the time comes, I'll handle him."

Desmond walked out, suitcase in his hand.

"If we're going we need to go now. The tech truck will be coming and we need to intercept it."

"Very well. Saddle up people, lets move."

__________

"We were just kids. What do you expect from us?" Dan said. "Sure we made a few mistakes but we're only human."

"Those few mistakes ended up costing millions." Michelle said.

"Get off our backs lady. We're doing our best."

"Not good enough. You need to be contained."

"And you need to get laid. Jesus I never saw a lady so uptight."

"Excuse me?" Michelle said shocked.

"You're a stalker. If you want us so bad, just spread your legs and call us."

This caused a roar of laughter all around as Michelle went red. Even Icarus was chuckling.

"You.......you.........disrespectful bastard," she growled, fire forming in her hands.

"Michelle." Evan said firmly.

She calmed down as the fire left.

"All right, all right, lets have order," Icarus said still giggling.

Everybody calmed down letting out a few chuckles.

"If I may speak Icarus?" Russ said standing up.

"The floor recognizes Russell Miller."

Russell walked up and stood in front of everybody.

"As you probably heard, yes we are the sons of Sheryl Miller. But does that make us the same as her? Yes, we used high level magic that is unstable but sometimes our line of work forces us to. We work the police force SNDU. Our lives are on the line everyday to ensure the safety of thousands of people. While the damage we do is severe, we are usually the first people there to help clean up our mistakes."

"To help clean up or cover up?" Michelle spoke up.

Russ looked at her and growled before looking at Evan.

"Well we wouldn't be in this situation if it wasn't for one of your people."

"Absurd. We had nothing to do with her rampage. We helped contained her, nothing more."

"Help you say? Then why not ask your buddy sitting next to you how he helped in his own way?" Russ said pointing to Evan.

Michelle looked at Evan who was staring daggers at Russell.

"What's he talking about Evan?"

"I have no clue."

"I'm sorry, it must've been a different person," Russ said with a smile. "Anyway, we don't like to abuse magic as you say. We only use magic as a last resort."

"Even still, you must be contained for the sake of everybody else."

Alucard laughed at that making people look at him.

"So now your speaking for me? As I recall, I can take care of myself. I don't need people that want to hide their weak magic speaking for me."

"My magic is not weak demon."

"Then how about we dance beautiful?" Alucard smiled, his wings extending to full.

Dan and Russ let out a gasp at the sight. An old looking raptor walked in front of Michelle.

"Back off Alucard. Or you'll deal with me."

"Master Dinadin. Forgive me master, but you would be no match for me in your current state of health."

"I may be old Alucard, but I have taught you not to underestimate or be over confident."

"ENOUGH!!!" Icarus yelling extending his six wings making the building shake. "Need I remind you that you are on neutral ground."

Everybody sat down as Alucard smiled.

"My apologies Icarus. These meetings do get a little boring."

"Boring or not, there will be no fighting. Is that clear for everybody?"

"Yes sir."

Icarus sat back down, folding his wings back.

"Now then Russell, be that as it may, you and your brother are doing the right thing by helping others."

"Icarus." Michelle started.

"But I cannot ignore the fact that you both have been using high level magic and causing extensive damage. If you cannot provide any other defense, I will have to rule in favor of the Faction."

Both the brothers let out a gasp as Michelle smiled.

"That's not fair. We were just kids with no mother thanks to you assholes I might add.' Dan yelled.

"Your mother was a threat to all of us. She had to be contained."

"And you need a cock in your mouth. Maybe that'll shut you up for a bit."

Everybody laughed again as Icarus called for order.

"What say you Merlin? You haven't said anything during all of this."

Merlin rubbed his beard before speaking.

"They have been using high level magic yes, but need I say again that they were motherless thanks to us. Their emotions were high and couldn't control them. We should not blame them for our actions."

"Be that as it may, they are adults now and responsible for their action Merlin." Icarus added.

"I understand that. That's why I have taken them under my wing in the White Council."

"They would be better off with me." Alucard said. "I will shape them to be fine wizards if given the chance."

"You would shape them to be assassins to do your bidding." Evan said.

Alucard looked at him and smiled.

"Nevertheless, I made a promise to Sheryl to watch over them and I will continue to."

"And if we deny you that, would you fight us?" Icarus questioned.

"Yes, I would."

Everybody started talking at once as Icarus rubbed his chin.

"Anything you want to add to this Alucard?"

"To seal away their magic is like Micheal Jordan playing baseball again. Its just not a good idea. Sure they made a mess of things and destroyed one of my buildings but shit happens to the best of us. Not one of you in here can say you haven't destroyed anything with your magic?"

"I haven't," Michelle said.

"Oh yes I forgot. You're little miss perfect. Born with a sliver spoon in your mouth. But your family isn't perfect. I can say a few things about your mother if you want?"

"Don't you dare," she snarled.

"As you wish. But that's all I have to say. We may need their magic in the future but they are useless if they are sealed."

"Thank you Alucard. We will conduct a short recess while we discuss what we want to do." Icarus said getting up along with the other angels.

________

"Man working on this computer blows. I should've listened to my mother and become a lawyer." the roo said in the truck.

"Its not that bad. Besides, the health benefits are great." the otter said turning on the road.

"True, but only because its the government."

They drove on til they spotted Desmond on the side of the road as he waved them down. The roo rolled down the window and smiled.

"Everything okay?"

"Could I trouble you for a jump? My car died coming from the park."

"Sure no problem. Jose, pop the hood."

"Sure," the otter said reaching underneath and popping the hood.

The roo got out some jumper cables as Desmond smiled.

"Thanks your a life saver. Wife would kill me if I came home late."

"I know the feeling. Okay, your all set here. Give it a crank."

Desmond walked to the driver's side and gave a thumbs up sign. Fast as lighting, the roo was tackled by two soldiers and dragged into the bushes. Jose saw this and gasped.

"Joesph!!"

He opened the truck's front door only to be met with a silencer.

"Good work. Time for a well earned rest." Ifrit said pulling the trigger twice.

Jose's body was dragged into the bushes as Ifrit and Desmond got into the truck.

"Lets go. Bruce once we get control of the bridge, move the trucks along."

"Okay."

They drove in silence until they saw the bridge checkpoint.

"Let me handle the talking." Desmond said.

"Fine by me."

They pulled to a stop as the shepard and bloodhound stopped them.

"State your business here?" the shepard asked.

"We're here for the routine maintenance check of system BDA1067," Desmond said handing his and Ifrit's IDs.

The bloodhound was walking around the truck with a mirror to look underneath as well as sniffing along the sides. The shepard checked their IDs with a UV flashlight.

"Don't know how you can handle all this tech junk. Hurts my head." the shepard said.

"You'll get use to it. Computer are my life."

Ifrit noticed his troops climbing the bridge from the side.

"We good down there Charlie?"

"All green."

"Well have fun." the shepard said handing back the IDs.

"Oh I will. Believe me."

They started to drive off before they heard the sounds of screaming. Ifrit got out and saw Bruce dropping the bodies into the river below.

"Good work. Secure the bridge."

"Yes sir."

Hopping back in, they continued on the road as it took a detour around the park to the back of the building. Reaching it, they stopped at another checkpoint before hitting the garage. All two trucks came to a halt before filing out. Desmond walked up to the security door and swiped his ID, causing the door to unlatch.

"Set up a perimeter. Nobody enters or leaves."

"Yes sir."

Ifrit followed Desmond in, Bruce at his side as they got into an elevator. Hitting the basement button, they proceeded down. Getting to the bottom, they were greeted by a large glass door with two doberman guards with MP5's on the waist.

"Ids please."

"Certainly."

The guard scanned it before handing it back.

"Right on time. Very punctual."

"I like to be. Helps with raises."

"Where do we go?" Ifrit asked.

"This way."

One of the guards led them through the glass door and down a flight of stairs where people were working. In the middle was a giant sphere with rods sticking out. It was suspended in mid air as a slight hum could be heard from it. Desmond looked at it in awe. They walked up to an employees only sign as the guard opened it. Inside were several monitors on the wall along with a couple of tables.

"Here you are. The main hard drive is in here."

"Thank you."

"No problem."

Once the guard left, Bruce chuckled.

"I guess my cloaking skills are still top notch."

"Indeed. Shall we begin?" Ifrit said.

Bruce snapped his fingers as ten of Ifrit's troops appeared from behind a veil.

"Lets do this."

Ifrit walked out first as nobody paid him no mind. But as soon as the soldiers came out, everybody panicked.

"Nobody move. Shoot anybody who resists."

The guards rushed in only to get gunned down quickly making people scream.

"Shut up," Ifrit yelled. "Bruce, get your things together. I want that forest locked down."

"At once general." Bruce said before disappearing.

"How are we looking Desmond?"

"Almost past the third defense. Another two and I'll have complete control."

"Good. Who's in charge here?"

A dolphin stood up in a lab coat.

"I'm in charge."

Ifrit took out his magnum and shot him right in the head.

"I'll ask again, who's in charge here?"

Nobody spoke up as he smiled.

"Good."

_________

"Sir, we have a situation."

"What is it?"

"There has been a breech in BDA1067."

"Say what?"

The wolf walked over and checked the terminal.

"Have you tried contacting them?"

"Yes sir, but all I get is static."

"Keep trying. I'll make a phone call.

Syano sat on the couch with Emmalline at his side. Dylan was watching the door as Pearl and Fred were watching TV.

"I still can't believe he did all that by himself." Syano said. "That is one special kid."

"Very special indeed." Emmaline said.

"You seem smitten by him dear. Should I be worried?" Syano grinned.

"Of course not dear. I'm married to you."

A knock on the door was heard.

"Enter." Syano said.

A man walked in and saluted.

"Mr president, sorry to disturb you but we have a situation."

"What is it?"

"Satellite BDA1067 has been compromised."

"Say what?" Syano said getting up. "When?"

"About twelve minuted ago. We can't contact the building either. Everybody is awaiting your arrival in the war room."

"I'm on my way."

In a few minutes, he was in the war room where everybody saluted.

"Tell me something good." Syano said.

"Nothing good so far Mr. president."

"Do we at least know who is behind this?"

"At the moment no. Video is scrambled but we're trying to decode it."

"How soon can we get troops there Justin?"

"Already have Seals deployed. ETA is forty minutes."

Syano nodded as he folded his hands.

"Keep trying to make contact. I want to know who they are."

________

"We keep getting calls general. What should I do?" Desmond asked.

"Ignore them. Send a call to that bitch of a prime minister saying we have control of the satellite."

"Right."

In a hide away closet for the circuit boxes, two people were huddle inside.

"How much longer?" the gator asked.

"A couple more minutes. Whoever did the hacking is damn good," the aardvark said

"Damn, I knew I should've stayed home today."

The aardvark patched some wires together as he got his laptop up and running.

"Okay I'm in. Lets hop the old defense codes still work."

________

"Sir, incoming transmission."

"Who's it from?" Syano asked.

"Don't know. But they are using old defense codes."

"Put it through."

The screen crackled with static for a bit before a picture of the aardvark appeared.

"Who are you?" Syano asked.

"My name is Dwayne Rouge. I don't know how much time I have, but whoever hacked into the system is a pro."

"How many are with you?"

"Including Phillip behind me, a total of ten. I don't know if they are still alive though. He shot Craig in cold blood."

"Can you at least get video inside?"

"I don't know. I can try."

The aardvark started typing as an extra screen popped up showing the soldiers holding the workers hostage.

"Can you get anymore shots?"

"I don't think so. This hacker has everything........."

He went quiet as he heard footsteps. When they passed, he started up again.

"This hacker is something I never seen. He gotten control in a matter of minutes."

"Nine minutes and thirty nine seconds to be precise." Desmond said appearing on a different screen.

"Who are you?" Syano growled.

"Desmond Jones, hacker for hire. I commend you for using the old defense codes."

"State your business with the satellite."

"Not my place to say. Its his."

Ifrit walked into the picture and smiled. Justin gritted his teeth in anger.

"Ifrit Hydra."

"We meet again Justin. Its been a while."

"Not long enough. You killed half my unit in Carleen."

"Did I? Sorry I lose count every so often. But enough about the past. I now have control of your satellite. Feel free to try and take it back Justin, if you can."

All screens went blank as Justin gave a growl.

"Justin, you know that man?" Syano asked.

"During the war in Carleen, he slaughtered almost all my men forcing us to retreat. We followed him all the way to Al Zhabi where we had the upper hand. He said he would be back with a vengeance."

"Is he dangerous?"

"Beyond dangerous. He cares for nobody or no thing."

"Mr secretary, Seals are in place."

"Good. Start the operation."

_______

Ifrit smiled as he ended the transmission.

"What now?" Desmond asked.

"If I know Justin, he'd have Seals down here already. Do a thermal scan of the area."

Desmond hit a couple of keys as several red dots appeared and slowly converging onto the amusement park.

"Attention all units, prepare to rub out some insects. Bruce, are your pets ready?"

"All set and hungry for blood."

"Good. Time for some fun."

_______

Justin watched his team's vitals on the screen.

"Entering the woods now. ETA to target, eighteen minutes," the captain said.

"Good. Stay sharp. This is Ifrit we are dealing with."

"Roger that."

The Seals moved quickly and quietly through the woods, unknown to them they were being hunted. One of the Seals in back got pulled into the darkness.

"What the fuck?"

Two more disappeared as everybody started shooting.

"Report. What's going on?" Justin said watching his team flat line one by one.

"Something's in the woods, not sure what but its.........aaaaahhh...."

One by one his team went down until they all flat lined.

"Dammit," Justin yelled hitting the table.

"Nice try Justin. But I know how you think. For your sake, don't send anymore people to their deaths. Face it Justin, you lost this battle."

Justin hit the desk again and again in anger before calming down somewhat.

"Its your call Mr president. I don't want to send more of my men to die. Ifrit does know I think so I'm useless in this situation. I'm sorry."

"Don't be. We'll just fight fire with fire." Syano said with a smile.

"What do you mean?"

"Dylan, get a hold of Daniel Miller."

"At once Mr. president."

_______

The panels of angel led by Icarus returned and sat down as everybody went quiet.

"We have come to a decision based on what we heard today."

Russ's tail was twitching nervously as Dan crossed his arms. Merlin squeezed Russ's hand, a smile on his face easing some of his tension.

"Daniel and Russell Miller. Given the fact you are both level five and have caused extreme amount of damage, we argued about sealing your magic."

Michelle and Evan smiled at that.

"However, we have taken into account that we are the cause of some of that damage due to the lost of your mother and your emotions. Therefore, it was voted with a count of seven to three for a deal."

The brothers looked at each other in question before looking back.

"Merlin, you have one month to control their magic to a point that is satisfactory to us. If you are not successful, we will have no choice but to allow the Faction to seal away their magic permanently."

Michelle and Evan gave a toothy smile at the brothers which didn't faze them.

"But if you are successful at the end of thirty days, Michelle, you and the Faction members are forbidden to involve yourself in their affairs."

This got Michelle riled up as she stood.

"Icarus please reconsider that. We are looking out for everybody."

"I understand your intentions. However, you are not looking at it from their point of view."

Despite the hand on Russell from Merlin, Russell was feeling trapped, cornered, and about to be caged. Like any wild animal knowing it's ability to escape was about to be cut off, Russell attacked as he stood up, his fur on end, ears laid back, and his teeth bared.

"Your group abducted me and Daniel when were were babies and held us hostage to get at our mother!" he shouted out, "Your people made her go insane!" He yelled.

The accusation caught everyone by total surprise. Icarus himself was shocked that it was made. From Alucard, Merlin, even Michelle was taken aback by the accusation. Michelle was offended and enraged by the accusation Russell had dared to make as she sought to turn this to her advantage despite her rage, "How dare you make slanders at us you filthy animal, you should be put down just like your mother!" she screamed.

That would have set Russell off forcing him to attack Michelle, if not for the fast actions of Icarus. He slammed his fist down on the table and invoked a special ward. This ward activated as it sent a surge of electricity ripped through both Michelle and Russell. Both of them jerked hard and fast as Michelle cried out in pain and Russell issued a howl of pain. The jolt lasted barely a fraction of a second but it was enough to stun them both, making them drop into their seats. The spell also forced all attention to Icarus, as he commanded, "We shall have order! We shall proceed in an orderly fashion from this moment forward!"

Turning and looking at Michelle who had recovered Icarus said in a menacing tone. "How dare you attempt to provoke an attack, to force someone to prove your point. You are officially censured, I will discuss the punishment with you in private when this meeting is over."

Turning to face Russell who had recovered his senses and control of his instincts. "You have all the instincts of a real wolf, like a normal anthro wolf has. You have demonstrated incredible control of your instincts, but you must control them better. Otherwise you only lend strength to arguments against you."

Icarus saw Alucard with his hand raised as he said, "The floor recognizes Alucard Graves." Icarus's tone of voice told everyone he would not be so lenient with the next offense.

"Russell Miller has made a most interesting accusation against the Faction. And while I have my own agenda, I am most interested in hearing more of this."

Dan looked at Russell and even Merlin showed his concern as Icarus said, "Agreed, Russell Miller you have made a very serious accusation. One that could very well alter the outcome of our ruling we just made, and due to the possible repercussions should these accusations be true, are you willing to submit to a spell of truth?"

Russell looked over at Alucard out of the corner of his eye watching him with great interest. Alucard no doubt had his own agenda, but Russell did not hesitate. "Willing? I demand it."

Michelle was taken aback when he demanded the spell of truth she was sure that he was trying to bluff. Which to her meant, it was true or someone was trying to manipulate the White Council and Faction. Her mind refused to believe for one moment that anyone in the faction would do such a thing. Snapping his fingers Icarus cast the spell as a white orb glowed in front of the table. "That orb will darken when you stretch the truth or lie. The more that you stretch the truth, the darker it gets."

Russell at that point openly at that point accused Evan of the deed. Repeating carefully word for word what Evan had said to him in the police interrogation room. He watched as Evan paled some but Michelle on the other hand the rage in her boiled and simmered. Not once did the orb flicker as Icarus nodded. "Indeed as Russell believes. The Faction abducted them with the intent to kill them, forcing their mother to retaliate. Evan Brandol will you now...."

Michelle refused to allow Icarus to finish, "No! I refuse to believe this! This is some sort of White Council trick! Evan Brandol is a man of honor and respect! He would never do such a thing. How dare you smear his good name!"

Russell looked at her as if in disbelief. Even Alucard was modestly surprised. The truth was, not only was Alucard right about her being little miss perfect, but the fact that she refused to believe that Evan could be under handed and sneaky, which both Alucard and Merlin knew well shocked them. She might accepted the possibility of it if she was told that by Merlin, but by the Miller brothers, never.

Dan's phone started to vibrate as he picked it up.

"Hello?" he said, using his other hand to block out Michelle's ranting.

"I will not allow this farce to continue, I demand Merlin be tested, that will show who is behind this lie!"

"Merlin, is not the one being accused, "

"I will not stand by and watch............"

"Will you all shut the FUCK up?" Dan yelled.

Michelle went speechless at the outburst as Dan continued with his call. Even Icarus was caught off guard.

"I'm sorry about that, what were you saying? Say what? Why me? Why can't the army do it? Oh come on, I can't do that. Isn't there anybody else? But.............Fine, I understand." Dan said hanging up.

"Who was that?" Russell asked.

"Dylan. There's a situation in Dover that requires a "delicate" hand," Dan said making gestures in the air.

"Where are you going?" Michelle snapped.

"To do our jobs." Dan said.

Icarus looked at them before smiling.

"Just a moment."

They stopped and turned as Icarus walked up to them. He was taller then they expected as they looked up at him.

"May we be able to see how you use your magic and skills?'

"How do you propose to do that?" Russ asked.

Icarus opened his hand as two contact lens appeared.

"Each of you wear one and we'll be able to see and hear everything you do. This will also give us a chance to see how well you work."

"Can you make it so the two of us forget about them when we walk out of here?" Russell asked.

"I can but why?"

"Because if you don't, miss princess over there can accuse us of not being ourselves, which of course she can still do given this meeting we have attended. And you will get to see how we interact."

Icarus smiled as he said, "Very well." He came over and lightly touched Dan and Russell on their foreheads as a spell was carefully cast upon them.

Dan and Russ each took one of the contact lenses and carefully popped them into their eyes, feeling the magic.

"The projection screen will show everything you do once you leave the barrier. Good luck with your assignment."

"Thank you sir," they both said with a bow and left.

Once outside, they retrieved their belongings and heading for the car.

"So where to?" Russ asked.

"Airport. Our ride is waiting for us." Dan said starting the car.

_______

They pulled into the airport parking lot as a plane took off over them deafening their ears from the engine. Walking in silence, they entered the busy airport station.

"Where's our contact?" Russ asked.

Before Dan could answer, a cute dalmatian in a nice pair of dress pants and shirt walked up to them.

"Daniel Miler?" she asked.

"Yes, that's me."

"Great. I've been told to pick you up. My name is Abigale Smith, hacker for the DOD. I'm here to take you to Dover."

"Very well."

"Who's your friend?"

"My brother Russell."

"Hmm, I was only told about you. I'm afraid he can't go."

"If he's doesn't go, I don't go."

She arched an eyebrow at him before reaching into her pocket and pulling out a phone.

"One second," she said dialing a number and walking away.

She came back all smiles and nodded.

"The more the merrier. This way please."

They followed her to a gate exit where a private jet was awaiting. Heading inside, they took a seat as the pilot readied for take off. Once in the air, Abigale handed them a folder.

"Here's the situation. The president will fill you in on the rest."

The monitor on the wall came to life as Syano and his cabinet appeared.

"Daniel, so good to see you again under such dire circumstances."

"Mr. president," Dan said with a nod.

"And you must be his brother Russell?"

"Yes sir."

Syano smiled before going serious.

"I'll explain everything to you. Exactly one hour ago, defense satellite BDA1067 has been compromised by this man, Ifrit Hydra."

A picture of Ifrit was shown.

"This man is extremely dangerous and ruthless. He'll stop at nothing to succeed. This man here is the hacker that compromised the system.

Desmond was shown with a cruel smile in a mug shot.

"He's been arrested numerous times for hacking into sensitive material and selling it to the highest bidder."

"That's where I come in," Abigale added. "Anything he did, I can undo."

"So what are we suppose to do?" Dan asked closing the folder.

"Stop Ifrit at all cost and get control of the satellite."

"What can this satellite do exactly?" Russ asked.

"It can fire a beam of intense energy anywhere in the world. The president before me had it built. I don't like the idea that something of that magnitude is hovering over our heads."

"Do you have any idea how much resistance we'll encounter?"

Justin took over as he punched in a few keys causing a screen to flash up and blink.

"We sent a UAV over head and managed to see how many troops he has. From the looks of things, he has the only bridge leading into the amusement park secured tightly."

"Wait, wait, wait, amusement park?" Dan said.

"Yes. The building is in the middle of the Wonderland Amusement Park."

Dan let out a groan and sighed.

"Are there people still there?"

"Negative. The park is closed down for the night and the hostages in the computer room are probably dead."

"Damn."

The screen switched back to Syano who sighed.

"Do what you have to to stop him. Worse comes to worse, destroy the building. I'll feel better about that then letting him have it."

"Just one question Mr. president." Dan said.

"Okay?"

"Why me?"

Syano was quiet before giving a wolfish grin.

"You took my daughter innocence. Consider it a fatherly grudge."

"Mr. president that's not fair."

"Relax, I'm only teasing. Truth be told, I have faith in your abilities. What you did for me and my family, I'll never ever forget."

Russ looked at Dan who smiled.

"One condition."

"Name it."

"I want a new car."

Syano laughed at that along with everybody else.

"When you get back, drop by any dealer and choose which ever one you want."

"Then it's a deal."

"Thank you Daniel and Russell. God speed." Syano said before the screen went blank.

Russ chuckled as he read the file again while Dan laid his seat back.

"How long til we get there?" Russ asked.

"One hour. Grab a cat nap if you want." Abigale said.

"No thanks."

Dan was already out cold as Russ shook his head.

______

"Took long enough general. I was getting worried," Naja said.

Ifrit had Naja on the terminal screen as she cleaned her nails.

"My apologizes prime minister."

"You have control of the satellite yes?"

"Yes."

"Good. Here is the first set of coordinates to destroy."

An extra screen popped up showing a latitude and longitude.

"Sorry prime minister, but I like these better."

She let out a gasp seeing them before growling.

"What are you playing at?"

"You really think I'm stupid huh?"

"What are you babbling about?"

A ferret walked in pushing a golden retriever in. He fell to his knees, his fur had patches of dried blood on it.

"My men are loyal to me Naja, unlike this one."

"Akito!," she said in a gasp.

"I'm sorry ma'am." he said, ears down.

Ifrit grinned as Naja growled.

"Surely we can come to some compromise general."

"Sorry Naja. You pushed me too far. Heaven, if you please."

The ferret pull out a katana, spun it twice before driving it through Akito's throat. Akito let out a gurgle before dropping to the ground.

"Any last words Naja?" Ifrit said, finger on the enter button.

"May you rot in hell you son of a bitch."

"At least it'll be warm," he smiled hitting the button.

Naja looked behind her and let out a half scream before the screen turned to static. Ifrit looked at Desmond who was shaking lightly.

"You have a problem with what I did?"

"Nope. I already got my money so I could care less."

"Good. Get me the president."

_____

"Mr. president, we just confirmed that satellite BDA1067 has just been fired."

"What was the target?"

"The capital city of Vanguard, Damascus sir. Its completely gone."

Everybody was quiet as Syano closed his eyes.

"Why destroy his own town? It doesn't make sense." Justin said.

"Whatever the reason, he has to be stopped and now." Syano growled.

_______

"Get up you, we're almost there," Russ said kicking the chair.

"Dammit, I was having a good dream," Dan growled.

"You'll get it again."

"Since the bridge is out of the question, we have to go through the forest. But we'll have to land about ten minutes away."

"Land my ass." Dan said stretching. "Pilot, get us over the water."

"Yes sir."

The jet flew quietly over the water as Dan opened the door.

"Are you crazy? We'll die as soon as we hit the water."

"Scared of heights beautiful?" Dan grinned.

"No," Abigale said with a blush.

"Perfect," Dan said picking her up with a gasp. "Ready bro?"

"After you."

Dan smiled and jumped as Abigale screamed. She closed her eyes, feeling the wind bite her as she fell to her death. When the wind died down, she opened her eyes in confusion to see her floating over the water.

"How........?"

"You want to ease up? Your choking me." Dan gagged.

"Oh, I'm sorry, first time I worked with anyone who knew magic." she said relaxing her grip before growling. "You scared the shit out of me. What the fuck?"

"Sorry. Would it make you feel any better if I said you were cute?"

She blushed heavily going quiet as Dan chuckled. When they reached the shore, he let her down gently.

"Thanks," she said softly.

"Anytime. Now, we have a job to do."

"Right. Here, put these in you ear." she said giving them each an earpiece. "This way in case we get separated, we can still stay in contact."

They placed the piece in their ear before drawing their guns.

"Dinner on the loser?" Russ asked.

"Wouldn't have it any other way," Dan smiled.

______

"They touched down Mr. president."

"Good. We'll leave everything up to them."

"Syano, I still feel that I could do more. My men are trained a little better then him."

"I know Justin. I still feel my army is the best in the world."

Justin beamed happily at that.

"But when special situations show up, sometimes you need a special individual."

"I understand what you're saying Syano. But they won't always be around to help."

Syano directed his eyes at Justin and grinned.

"Better to take advantage of it now then wouldn't you say?"

"No argument here," Justin said with a chuckle.

_____

They walked through the forest quickly. The only light they saw was from the bridge but they didn't have to worry cause it wouldn't penetrate the woods they were in.

"Can't see shit," Dan said.

"The building is about halfway in. The roller coaster is right besides it." Abigale said.

Russ's tail stood up as he stopped.

"What's wrong?" Dan asked.

"Something's here."

A voice chuckled all around them.

"More blood for my pets. They will eat hearty today."

They both tensed up before jumping out the way, Dan holding onto Abigale as a blur rushed past them.

"What was that?" Abbigale said scared.

"Don't know. Stay here and whatever happens, don't move." Dan said casting a camouflage spell on her.

He got up and looked as Russell who nodded as they stood back to back.

"What do you think, gnolls?" Dan asked.

"Gnolls would've made noises on the leaves and branches."

The leaves rustled a little as Russ's ears twitched. He took a couple of sniffs in the air and looked around.

"Worgs. Judging by the scent, I'd say at least ten, surrounding us."

"Very observant," Bruce said appearing from a veil.

He looked at them before raising an eyebrow.

"You don't look like soldiers. Why are you here?"

"To put an end to this." Dan said.

"You are welcomed to try," Bruce said with a smile.

A large black feral wolf with blazing red eyes walked to his side as he stroked its head making it murr.

"Nevertheless, I must bid you farewell. Tear them apart."

Bruce disappeared as they heard growls all around them.

"You do realize they have a slight advantage don't you?" Dan whispered.

"You doubt our skills dear brother?" Russ grinned, his hand glowing with a bluish tint. "I'm hurt by that."

"Don't misunderstand. I just don't want to waste bullets."

"Here they come."

Abigale watched in awe as they ducked, rolled, shot, dodged, and fought these giants wolves. The pair worked as a team, Russell would cast a spell his favorite being Glue Trap which transmuted wet soil into a highly sticky glue like flypaper. This of course made the worgs stick and trip, Daniel's spells were more along the lines of Grease which caused wargs to slip and slide. When a couple worgs were incapacitated, they would use a killing spell like lightning bolt.

"They move so fluid together. Its like they are one body and mind. I never seen people like them before. Just who are they?"

She heard a growl behind her. With shivers in her body, she turned to see one of them staring at her. She backed into a tree as it gave a grin, showing its teeth as if it knew she was scared. Her mouth opened but nothing came out except gasps. It let out a growl before charging her. She let out a scream and closed her eyes When nothing happened, she opened her eyes to see Dan under it holding it back by it mouth.

"Why grand mom, what big teeth you have," he said with a smile.

The worg lashed it tongue out catching Dan under the chin.

"Don't kiss me on the first date. Its rude."

He brought his legs under the worg and kicked it in the air. It landed on all fours, growling evilly. When it looked up, Dan was gone. It tilted its head in confusion until it heard a whistle. It turned around as Dan was behind it, gun between its eyes.

"Good night grand mom," he said pulling the trigger.

"You all set over there?" Russ asked cleaning his sword.

"Yeah. Only one person left."

"You........you killed my pets," Bruce said angrily.

"You didn't have any collars on them. Not our fault." Dan said.

"Fine. I'll kill you myself."

Bruce's body blurred a little before multiple copies appeared and made a circle around Russ. Dan chuckled before shaking his head as Abbigale looked at him.

"Aren't you going to help him?"

"Who? The illusionist? Why would I?"

"I meant your brother."

"Hahaha, you should be more worried about the other guy."

Russ was still with his eyes closed as the mob around him went faster becoming almost invisible.

"What's wrong? Are you too scared to move?" Bruce laughed.

Russ opened his eyes slowly which flashed gold, dispelling the copies leaving a shocked Bruce standing there.

"What the.......? How can this be?"

He heard a twig snap in front of him. Turning around, he let out a grunt as Russ drove his sword into him.

"Who...........who are..........you?"

"Miller. Russell Miller."

His eyes went wide before closing slowly.

"To be defeated........by her.........kin. An........honorable......loss."

He slumped slowly to the ground, a slight smile on his face as Dan and Abbigale waked up.

"Who are you guys? Where did you learn to do those things?"

A radio went off on Bruce's waist. Russ bent down and picked it up.

"Bruce. What's going on? The bridge reported they heard gunfire."

"The caller you are trying to reach has stepped out."

"Who is this? Where is Bruce?"

"He's getting some beauty sleep. Can I take a message?"

The other side was quiet before chuckling was heard.

"I don't know who you are, but you won't last long."

"Just the odds we like. We're coming for you Ifrit. Just make sure you have the milk and cookies for us."

Russ tossed the radio on the ground as they proceeded into the park.

_______

Ifrit growled angrily as he tossed the radio onto the desk.

"So, Justin still thinks he can beat me does he? Very well, I'll pull out all the stops."

He walked out the room and up the elevator. Taking it to the ground floor, he got out and headed for the garage. Outside were the rest of his troops sitting down and chatting. When they saw Ifrit, they quickly stood at attention.

"We have intruders on the grounds. Eliminate with extreme prejudice."

"Yes sir," they all said grabbing their gear and hustling out.

He looked to the right to see Heaven holding onto another ferret. He walked over as they looked at him.

"I might need you two later. If they can beat Bruce, I don't want to take chances."

"Yes sir."

_______

Icarus rubbed his chin as he watched the fight.

"Very impressive. They know how to work together well."

Alucard watched with interest along with Ginyu.

"They may cause a problem master." Ginyu whispered.

"I wouldn't mind a challenge." Alucard grinned. "They may prove to be entertaining before I have my way with them."

Michelle watched with Evan who had his arms crossed.

"They fight well. But it doesn't prove anything." Evan said.

"It proves they are murders. Killing is easy for them." Michelle added

Merlin watched along side Sanzo and the girls.

"This is my first time seeing them fight. They are impressive." Sanzo said.

"Aren't they?" Emily said.

"Well you should know. After all, you are dating one of them."

Emily blushed a little before smiling.

"What are you thinking about Merlin?" Angel asked.

"Nothing to worry yourself about Angel. Just lost in my thoughts."

Merlin looked at the screen again as they entered the park.

"They are improving at a rapid pace. But will it be enough in the time they have?"

"What are you doing?" Russ asked as he watched Dan grab a king size Milky Way bar from the vendor stand.

"Grabbing a snack. I'm starving," Dan replied leaving a five and a note.

"How can you eat at a time like this?" Abbigale asked.

"Simple, like this," Dan said taking a bite with a goofy smile.

Russ let out a chuckle as they waked past the Yo-Yo ride. Suddenly the lights went on making them gasp and cover their eyes.

"There they are. Open fire."

Dan grabbed Abbigale and ducked behind a Whack-a-mole stand as Russ hid behind a Ring toss.

"Split up and meet at the building?" Dan asked.

"You got it. Make sure to keep your body count." Russ grinned. "I'm leading six to four."

"That worg you killed was mine."

"Excuses."

Bullets shattered the wood around them as they kept low.

"Be safe bro." Dan said.

"You too."

With a nod, they got up and dashed into different directions. Russell headed towards the haunted house and other large rides and Dan headed towards Kiddy Land holding onto Abigale.

"After them. Don't let them get away."

______

"You don't know when to quit do you Justin? How many more men must you send to their death?" Ifrit growled.

"They are not my men technically." Justin said with a grin.

"What?" Ifrit said confused. "Then who are?"

"Figure that out for yourself."

Ifrit let out a snarl before turning it into an evil grin.

"Very well. Two can play this game."

Ifrit typed in some number causing the computer to beep.

"I sent you five coordinates. One of them I will destroy in ten minutes. Then another one every five minutes unless you call them off."

Justin looked at them, eyes going wide.

"These are our military bases stationed around the world."

"You have ten minutes Justin." Ifrit said before ending the transmission.

"Syano?"

"Start the evacuation."

"But there are thousands of troops in those locations. Evac would take too long."

"Then I suggest we get started."

______

Russ ducked into the shadows as troops ran past him shouting.

"_Man, these bastards are everywhere. This is one time I wish my fur was black."_Russ said to himself.

In the corner of his eye he saw one of his favorite rides, the Turkish Twist. He gave a grin as he remembered what that particular ride did. About six troops were around it checking everywhere.

"Perfect."

He held his finger out as he casted a quick spell. An illusion of him jumped over the ramp causing the soldiers to turn around.

"There he is," one of the shouted.

His image ran into the ride causing them to follow. Once inside, Russ magically closed the door and ran up to the controls. He heard them inside trying to get out.

"Hope you like the ride fellas."

He hit the start button causing the room to start to spin slowly. It picked up speed as they slowly started to stick to the wall as the floor began to descend. They let out yells and curses as Russ smiled down, increasing the speed to dangerous levels. Their bodies started to compress hard making their organs squeeze painfully in their bodies. Blood started coming out their mouths as the ride spun faster like a wash cycle. One by one their hearts exploded from the extreme pressure.

"Yuck," Russ said looking at the scene. "Hope they have good house cleaning."

"There he is, shoot him."

"Whoops, time to go."

______

Dan fired off two shots, hitting the hyena as it flipped over a bench.

"Dammit, I can't shoot them all."he said reloading. "Don't you have a gun?"

"I'm a tech girl, not a solider." Abbigale replied before gasping as bullets pinged around the metal they were hiding behind.

"Shit. A lot of good that does me."

He grabbed her hand as they made a dash for the large playpen. Once inside, they found a dark corner to catch their breath.

"I wish I could be like you." she said softly.

"Be like me. Why?"

"Cause you can do all sorts of cool stuff. Me, I'm just a nerd that's only good with computers."

"Everybody does their part in this world, no matter how trivial it may be. Besides, you don't want to be like me."

"Why?" she asked, head tilted a little.

"Cause we have this bitch of a wolf after us for god knows what, we lost our mother to people who want our power, the list goes on."

Dan checked the area after attaching a silencer seeing a Merry-go-Round as solders looked around it.

"See the start switch for the Merry-go-Round?"

"Yes."

"Hit it as soon as I give the signal."

Dan crept out silently and hid next to the trash can. Looking her way, he gave a thumbs up. She nodded and started the ride making the soliders jump scared. Dan took that chance and ran into the ride.

"Behind you," one of the shouted to the bear.

The bear turned in the tight quarters only to get punched in the gut making him hunch over. Dan flipped over the bear's back gun drawn as he fired, dropping two of them in four shots.

"This way, he's over here."

"You bastard," the bear growled.

Dan jumped on top of the plastics rides and slipped through the iron bars nimbly as bullets impacted the wall behind him. He got to a horse with a carriage attached as he ducked under it. The ride spun around making it hard to get a bead on him. The sound of a shotgun being pumped caught his attention as the bear came closer. That was when he saw a horse next to him.

"Kick him," Dan said placing his hand on the metal floor, magic flowing to the horse.

The horse let out a whine before back heeling the bear off the ride. He saw the three remaining soldiers lining up their sights.

"Shut the ride off."

"Okay." Abbigale said shutting the ride down along with the lights.

Gun fire was heard above Dan's head. He heard the sound he wanted to hear which was them reloading. Getting up, he jumped and tackled them to the ground. A hyena got up along with Dan and threw a punch which Dan countered into an arm-bar take down driving his elbow into his neck crushing his windpipe.

"Kill this bastard." a rat said.

Dan got up to his feet quickly as he took both the rat and dingo head on. To his surprise they were good as the dingo managed to grab him from behind as the rat grabbed a metal rod from the broken parts of the Merry-go-round. Dan hooked his feet behind the dingo's and jerked up hard making the dingo fall on his back. He rolled quickly in time as the rat came down on the dingo crushing his skull. The rat looked shocked before Dan took him down with a drop toe hold then quickly snapping his neck.

"Man, that took longer........"

Before he could finish, he felt something equal to a brick wall hit him from behind as he flew into the wooden gate.

"Anymore tricks up your sleeve boy?" the bear growled angrily.

Dan was in a daze before he got pulled up and into a bear hug so to speak. His arms tried to break the grip but the bear had his finger interlocked digging into his spine.

"Come on, lets hear that snap."

Dan let out a grunt as he body got compressed. Gritting his teeth, he dug his nails around the throat of the bear.

"Let's see you handle this."

Lighting coursed through the bear making him roar in pain and shake as he let his grip go setting Dan free. Acting quick, Dan grabbed the metal rod and flipped over the bear. As he flipped, he aligned the rod under the bear's throat as he pulled up on the rod taking the bear off his feet onto his back. The bear struggled and thrashed around as Dan tightened his grip until he heard a pop and the bear went lifeless.

"Thank god," Dan said with a sigh dropping him to the ground.

"Are you okay?" Abbigale asked running up.

"I'll be sore tomorrow but I'm fine. Come on, lets go."

"All units respond." Ifrit said over the radio. "All units respond."

With a snarl he smashed the radio against the wall.

"Do a thermal scan of the area now," he barked.

"Yes sir," Desmond said.

The screen flashed showing three red dots moving at an alarmingly rate as the number of green dots vanished.

"Can you get any kind of video down there?"

"Yeah. I'll access the security cameras."

Another screen popped up showing Dan, Russ, and Abbigale.

"You mean to tell me my elite soldiers are being defeated by three fucking kids? Do you know who they are?"

"No, but I know the girl they are with. She's my ex."

"What's her name?"

"Abbigale Smith. She's as smart as I am with computers." Desmond said with a smile.

"Can she over ride what your doing?"

"Yes."

Ifrit balled his fists angrily as Desmond typed away.

"But I can show you how she has to do it."

"Good, show me."

______

The man on top of the Ferris wheel let out a yell as he fell down with a sickened splat.

"I hope that's the last one?" Dan said.

"The building is right ahead," Abbigale said.

"Finally."

They reached the parking lot which was empty except for a couple of cars. Soon they heard laughter as Russ appeared from the bushes holding his stomach.

"What's so funny?" Dan asked.

He held up his finger as he calmed down, wiping a tear from his eye.

"You should've seen what I did to some of those soldiers in the haunted house. Oh man."

"Was it that bad?"

"Quite the opposite. I had them jumping at everything. Even managed to get them to shoot each other by using a small illusion of myself. I even had a horse so far gone that he thought his panther buddy was Sandy Fox, the model for those skimpy panties. You can only guess how that ended."

"He won't be walking straight for a while." Dan laughed.

Abbigale looked at them as they walked to the building.

"They took out Ifrit's elite soldiers like they were nothing. Just who the hell are they?"

"You okay there cutie? You've been awfully quiet." Dan asked.

"What? Oh yes....I'm fine." she blushed.

"So now that we're here, how do we stop Ifrit?" Russ asked. "We can't just barge in."

"Nope. By now Desmond has all electronics locks and the elevators disabled. The only way I can reverse what's happening is by hacking into a sub-net server network."

She handed Russ a small magnet with tiny clip ons.

"I need you to attach this onto the satellite motherboard on the roof."

"What's it do?"

"Allows me to access anything in the network. More then likely he's got everything locked down."

"Okay."

"What do I do?" Dan asked.

"You're going to help me get into the thirty floor."

"What's on that floor?"

The cafe lounge. I can hook my laptop through the network up there."

They reached the side of the forty two story building and looked up.

"Almost as big as the Whitegate hotel." Dan said.

"Be safe bro and keep in contact." Russ said.

"You too."

Russ smiled and nodded before running up the side of the building. Abigale looked with wide eyes as Dan chuckled.

"Well, shall we go my dear?"

"Sure."

Dan picked her up before jumping into the air.

"Bitch of a wolf," Michelle snarled. "I'm sick of that disrespectful asshole degrading me."

"Well it is true in a manner of speaking," Alucard spoke up. "Female dogs are bitches correct?"

"Fuck you demon."

"Name the time and place sweet fleas." Alucard grinned.

"Just get married already Jesus," Sanzo said.

Michelle glared at him before speaking up.

"And why are you against us Sanzo Blackstone? Didn't you want them dead at one point?"

"That was before I heard and saw the truth."

Michelle looked at him before giving an evil wolfish grin.

"Tell me something Sanzo, isn't your girlfriend a lycan?"

Gasps were heard all around as Sanzo balled his fists.

"Fiance, you bitch."

"The same fiancée that was responsible for those two murders in the bike trail?"

"She had nothing to do with that." he snarled. "That was Alberto."

"Ah yes. The same Alberto King that Merlin failed to killed."

"Like you could do better you uptight cunt."

"The Faction never leaves a job undone. I guess Merlin's old age is finally catching up to him."

Sanzo was livid and was about to pounce at her in rage until Merlin held his cane up.

"Sanzo, relax."

"I won't stand here and let that bitch say those things."

"Water under the bridge Sanzo."

Sanzo was steaming mad as he sat down.

"I thought lycans were extinct?" Icarus asked.

"She's the last female alive." Sanzo said sadly.

"And she is your soon to be wife?"

"Yes sir."

"You see Icarus, he admits it. Let us eliminate her before she goes feral."

"If you even think about going near her, treaty or not, I will rip you apart." Sanzo snarled. "She's not even in our realm right now. She's in another one being trained by a lycan native to that world."

"Another realm, and who is training her Merlin?" Icarus asked.

"In their realm lycans are not the blood thirsty monsters of our world, but guardians and protectors. When she returns she will have absolute control of her powers and abilities, she will pose no danger. In fact she is being trained by their race's strongest member, and the chosen champion of their god."

"And you expect me to believe that old man?"

"If Merlin sent her to train under who I think, she will be no danger to any one." Icarus said. "You have my blessings Sanzo. True love is hard to find, even if they are different. But should her training fail, it will fall to Merlin to stop her."

"Icarus you can't be serious? This is a lycan we are talking about." Michelle barked.

"Always ready to start a fight. Maybe Daniel Miller was right, you do need to get laid."

Everybody laughed as Michelle growled angrily.

______

Russ hopped up over the ledge of the roof. It was dark as the clouds blacked out the moonlight. He held up his hand as a small ball of light was produced. The roof was all cement as vents poked out along with the elevator and generator room. Three satellite dishes were placed in the middle, each looking in a different direction.

"Those most be it. But which one?" Russ tapped his earpiece. "Abigale, there are three satellite dishes up here. Which one do I hook up?"

"Look in the middle of the dish. There should be a small hologram of the presidential seal on it."

Russ looked at each one until he spotted it.

"Once you find it, open the circuit box and attach it to the motherboard. The chip will do the rest."

Russ went to one knee and undid the cover. It was filled with tons of wires and various boards. Russ had a little bit of knowledge with computers so he was lucky to find it amidst all the clutter. He attached the magnet to it as the magnet glowed before melding with the processor.

"All set."

"Great. Good job."

Russ put the cover back on before he tensed up. He took out his dagger and looked around. Somebody was here, and it was hunting him. His ears twitched from side to side trying to here anything. A slight breeze passed him as he turned quickly to block a downward strike.

"Impressive."

"Who are you?" Russ growled.

Russ could only see the attackers eyes and the slight gleam of the katanas they branded as the moonlight was still blocked. He blocked and parried the attacks before jumping onto the elevator room's roof. When he looked down, the person was gone.

"Shit, where'd he go?"

He turned only to get a straight kick sending him off the roof onto the floor knocking the breath out of him. His reflexes kicked in as he rolled to the left of a downward strike before countering with a sweep as he back flipped a couple of feet.

"You are the first person to ever connect with an attack."

The clouds finally cleared as the moon revealed a ferret. It was wearing a black vest that was tied with string along with a pair of tight black shorts. Two desert eyes looked at Russell before a smile appeared.

"I'll ask again, who are you?"

"My name is Heaven. I have killed nine hundred and ninety-nine targets as a hired merc. You will have the honor of being my one thousandth."

_____

The cafe lounge was huge as decorated pillars were around the room. Three rows of tables with six in each row were in the middle as the kitchen was to the right. In the far left corner was a carpeted area complete with leather sofas and a big screen TV mounted on the wall. Along the left walls also were vending machines, stools, and registers. Abigale hurried over to the carpeted area and took the laptop out of her bag and started it up.

"One question, why up here? Why not one of the offices?"

"Cause that's the first place he would've locked down."

"You seen to know a lot about this hacker."

"He's my ex."

Dan looked at her as she smiled.

"Okay I'm in."

"How long?"

"Give me about fifteen minutes and I'll have this place back to normal."

A barely audible click was heard making Dan tense. He grabbed Abigale and pulled her behind one of the sofas as bullets ripped through the back of it.

"I'm impressed you heard that. Most wouldn't have."

"You okay?" Dan asked Abigale.

"I'm fine. I didn't even hear that."

"I'll take care of him. You worry about the satellite."

He snapped his fingers as a small mirror appeared. Crawling to the edge, he peeked out and scanned the area until he saw a small shadow behind one of the pillars. He took aim and fired, making the person jump. The shadow jumped and moved from its spot as Dan hurried out as well. Bullets whizzed passed him hitting the window as he did a baseball slide under a table.

"Oh yes, the thrill of the hunt. You got me excited."

"I'm flattered, I guess."

Footsteps caught his attention as he quickly stood up and rolled a table towards the kitchen area. The sound of an automatic machine gun was heard as bullets ripped through the table making him jump into the kitchen behind the stove area.

"I'm going to enjoy this kill."

"Christ, why do I get all the people with the fucking guns?" Dan said panting as he looked around.

Several pots and pans were hanging from the top exhaust fan. He looked at them and smiled as he saw his attacker through the reflections. He waited for a couple of seconds then took careful aim at a pot and fired as it ricocheted off it and hit the attackers gun disabling it.

"Nice shot," the attacker said dropping his broken M16 and ducking behind a pillar.

"I aim to please."

Dan ran out and jumped behind a pillar as the sound of a 44 magnum took a chunk of the pillar off.

"I need to do something fast. Running out, as usual."

He produced the mirror again and looked to see the shadow duck under a table. He had to get close enough to end this so he flipped three tables over and rolled them. The attacker looked and fired shattering the tables in hopes he hit his target. When the last table stopped, he saw nothing. With a quick turn, he raised his gun up at Dan's face who had his gun up also.

"Very impressive," the ferret said wearing green fatigues. His yellow eyes looking Dan up and down. "My name is Hell, and you are?"

"Miller."

"Well Miller, we're at a stale mate. What do you suggest?"

"No guns."

Hell's eyes betrayed his happiness.

"Very well."

_____

Russ let out grunts as he tried to dodge the fast barrage of attacks from Heaven. He tried to find an opening but Heaven was moving to fast. He thought he found one but when he went for it, Heaven flipped over him and landed a strong kick to his back stumbling Russ as Heaven landed on his feet with a smile. Russ let out a growl as he turned quickly and went on the attack throwing flurries of moves which was smoothly blocked before he saw an opening and struck with a straight kick sending Heaven sliding.

"Yes, yes, that's it."

He watched Heaven stand up and spin the weapons with skill. A small breeze passed again by his nose as he sniffed. What he smelt made his eyes go wide.

"Your a female?"

"Surprised?"

Russ was a little shocked, not because he was fighting a female, but this particular female was getting turned on. Her excitement was in the air and it was large.

"_Maybe I can use this to my advantage."_Russ thought.

"Come on you wolf, let's finish our mating dance," Heaven purred before rushing him.

_____

Abigale typed quickly, passing through every single wall Desmond put up. In the background she heard the grunts and impacts of body shots along with the crashing of furniture. She tuned them out as best as she could trying to undo the damage.

"What are you doing Abigale?"Desmond said appearing on a pop up screen.

"Stopping this madness."

"I'm trying to earn a living for the both of us."

"You're doing it the wrong way."

Desmond let out a chuckle as he typed also.

"So I guess we can't come to a compromise?"

"Do your time, then we can talk," Abbigale said, her eyes darting back and forth from the various windows screens that popped up and disappeared.

"You really think you can beat me?"

Abbigale grinned at that question.

"I'm nearly ninety percent through your walls."

"Is that what you think?"

She let out a gasp as the screens started to delete one by one erasing her hard work.

"I've gotten better my love."

"So I noticed," she growled typing faster.

"You lose Abby." Desmond smiled before disappearing from the screen.

"Shit, shit, shit,"she snarled.

It was then her over worked brain remembered an old trick she use to use when hacking. She smiled and typed again as the screens that disappeared, came back again.

"Dammit Abbigale, why must you do this?"

"Because its my job."

"Fine, then you leave me no choice."

She watched the screen as her eyes went wide.

"You crazy asshole. You'll kill us all."

"I'm not going to jail Abby. You have ten minutes to to get past all hundred of my walls to stop the countdown. Otherwise, you die when the satellite fires."

_____

Desmond smiled as stood up from the terminal. Ifrit was outside the room fuming about his troops.

"Big chance for me to slip out."

Desmond tipped toed his way to the far wall where a large server was. Lucky for him he read the schematics of the building and found a hidden passageway. Pushing it aside, he found a long hallway with a ladder at the end. Moving the server back, he walked down the hall to the ladder. Climbing up, he appeared in the parking lot.

"Nice nice." he smiled.

He whistled to himself as he climbed into the work truck. Whipping out the key, he started the engine which cause the truck to explode.

"Poor deluded fool." Ifrit said watching the video.

"What do we do sir? This place is going to be vaporized in a matter of minutes."

"Take the rest of the men and evac. I'm not done here

"Yes sir."

_____

Russ let out a grunt as he was pushed back again and again by Heaven's blows before smiling.

"Is this all a female can do? I'm not impressed."

Heaven looked at him in shock and anger.

"If I turn you on so much, how about doing me under the moonlight cutie?" Russ smiled blowing her a kiss.

"Insolent curr. I'll skin you alive."

She came at him in a rage which is what he wanted, but not at the intensity she was bringing. He was slow at some dodging as she managed to cut his cheek and chest before kicking him across the roof as he rolled.

"Never has a target mock me as you do."

"Believe me. I have plenty more," Russ said getting up slowly, his chest bleeding from the gash she made.

She let out a growl and charged him as Russ followed suit. Blades clashed together in the night before going into a stalemate. They looked at each other before Russ did something even she didn't expect. He leaned over and kissed her. This shocked her enough for him to knock both blades out her hand. Still in motion, he made five slashes at her body cutting her clothes in shreds leaving her naked as she gasped and fell to the floor covering her body.

"I win," Russ said holding the sword to her neck.

Heaven closed her eye waiting for the end, a tear in her eye. She got surprised again when she felt a blanket cover her body. She looked up a Russell in confusion as he smiled.

"Why.......?"

"Why not? I may be your enemy, but I still have my manners."

"Just kill me. Make it quick and save me this humiliation."

"As much as I would like to, I just can't."

She looked at him before looking at the ground.

"So what now?"

"Find a new hobby. I'm sure you have plenty of skills besides killing."

Russ stood up and looked down at her before offering his hand. She looked at his hand then him before slowly reaching up and taking it. He pulled her up gently and smiled making her blush.

"What is your name, if I may ask?"

"Russell Miller."

"Miller," she said closing her eyes. "I shall remember that name."

Another breeze passed making her shiver a little.

"Shall we go?" Russ asked motioning with his paw towards the door.

Heaven nodded her head as they headed to the freight elevator.

____

Hell let out a grunt as his back hit the pillar. He looked up to see Dan rush him as he connected with rights and lefts to the face and body. Dan threw another swing only to have it blocked as Hell grabbed his arm. Moving quickly, he twisted it behind his back before slamming him face first into the pillar he was once on and delivered rapid blows to the kidneys. After his last punch, he grab Dan by the neck and tossed him over his shoulder onto a table breaking it.

"I've never been.....pushed this far by anybody before Miller. I love it," Hell panted leaning on the pillar, blood on his neck coming from his mouth along with a trail down the right side of his head.

Blood leaked out of Dan's mouth as he weakly got to his knees before being kicked back down.

"_Why is it always me?"_Dan thought.

"And now Miller, you will die."

Dan heard Hell coming as he grabbed a table leg. When he got close enough, he struck him right in the midsection making Hell double over. Seizing the chance, he stood up and connected with a hard right and left staggering Hell. Hell tried to recover and threw a punch but his arm was caught and Dan gave him a quick chop to the throat making him gag. Still having a grip on him arm, he rammed into his shoulder three times hearing a crack on the third. Hell let out a yell of pain before Dan clothesline him making him spin to the ground.

"I need a new job," Dan said softly when he heard Hell whimper softly.

Grabbing his gun, he rolled Hell over as he held up his good arm in defense.

"Please, please don't kill me. I was just a hired merc."

Dan looked down at the beaten and bruised ferret, finger tense on the trigger. He looked into his eyes as a single tear went down. With a sigh, he lowered his gun. That was when a gun shot was heard as Dan let out a yell dropping his gun and holding his right shoulder where the bullet hit. He turned to see Ifrit as he fired another shot hitting Daniel in the leg.

"I can't believe my men were defeated by a punk like you."

"Abbigale how long do you have?" Dan asked in pain.

"I still have another eight walls to go through in under five minutes."

"Can you do it?"

"Stop talking to me and I can."

"Wise ass," Dan chuckled hiding behind a table.

He ripped his sleeve off before tying it around his leg with a groan of pain. He held his hand out as his gun slid over to him and checked his rounds seeing only two shots left.

"Perfect. Keeps getting better and better."

"You even beat my hired mercenary I got. Guess I didn't get my money's worth eh Hell?" Ifrit said looking at him.

"Its over Ifrit. Give it up." Dan yelled.

"That's my line," Ifrit growled shooting the wood around the table where Dan was at.

Dan rolled and pulled himself up behind a pillar when he heard a yell. Taking a peek, he saw Ifrit holding onto Abbigale, gun pointed at her head.

"This ends now. Come out or she dies."

"All right, fine."

Dan come out, hands in the air limping.

"I have been through two wars and killed hundreds. But here I am about to lose to high school rejects."

"Could be worse."

"Nothing is worse."

Dan looked at Abbigale who was terrified.

"Stay calm. I'll get you out of this."_Dan said in her head. "_When you see an opening, twist his balls."

"Are you crazy?"

"Just do it."

"Now you die little boy," Ifrit said squeezing the trigger hitting Dan in the side.

Abbigale took the chance and reached down and twisted Ifrit's balls hard making him yelp loudly as she jumped away. Dan took aim and fired his last two rounds right into Ifrit's chest.

"Dammit.......of all........people......why kids?"

He staggered backwards before falling out the broken window. Dan let out a sigh and laid there breathing hard. Abbigale hurried back to the laptop and found she only had three minutes left and four walls to get through. Her hands were a blur on the keys until she hit the last wall which was denying her. Desmond's face appear in code as it smiled.

"Naughty girl. You didn't type the password."

"God damn you Desmond," she growled looking as the clock ticked down to fifteen seconds.

Then she remembered what Desmond use to call her when they were dating. Typing it in, she let out a yip as the countdown stopped at three seconds.

"Mission complete," she said with a sigh.

"Can........I go.......home now?" Dan said in pain.

____

"Mission complete Syano. They did it," Justin said getting off the phone.

Syano let out a relieved sigh and sat back with a smile.

"He did it again. Man that is one special kid."

"My men are picking up the last of Ifrit's troops."

"Good. Another headache gone and an addition of a grey hair. I'm going back to finish my quality time with my family."

"Yes sir Mr. president." Justin saluted.

____

Icarus clapped his hands impressed.

"Very very impressive. Those two are something else."

"They are still dangerous Icarus. Don't be fooled by their tricks," Michelle barked.

Alucard smoothed his hair back and smiled.

"They are strong master Alucard. Are you sure......."

"Ginyu, what have I said to you before?"

"I don't remember."

"I will have their power, no matter the cost. The fighting is just an extra so I won't be bored."

Emily looked worried when Dan was shot those three times.

"I hope he's okay."

"He's fine Emily. He's a lot tougher then he looks remember?" Angel reassured her.

Sanzo looked at Merlin who was in deep thought.

"Something on your mind?"

Merlin looked at him with a smile.

"Nothing to worry yourself about."

Icarus pounded him mallet making the room go quiet as the projection went up.

"This meeting shall come to a recess until the Miller brothers return here. Then we can discuss their accusations against the Faction further."

"You can not seriously consider that the Faction would do such a thing!" Michelle demanded.

"You have refused to allow Evan to speak under the spell of truth, you have left your self little room to demand anything so I must at least consider it a possibility that their claims are true."

With a pounding of his mallet the meeting was recessed.

_____

Dan and Russ laid down on the make shift beds on the plane.

"Another special job we won't get paid for." Dan said.

"I thought we were getting a car?" Russ asked.

"That's besides the point."

Russ chuckled before letting out a grunt and holding his chest lightly where it was bandaged. Dan turned his head lightly and looked at him.

"Was it a good idea to let those two go?"

Russ closed his eyes remembering.

"Where will you two go from here?" Russ asked.

"We will find work elsewhere. Surely there is something out there for us to do." Heaven said.

"Its time we do something other then killing for a change," Hell added.

"Well I wish you both the best of luck."

Heaven walked over and gave Russ a kiss before hugging him and whispering in his ear.

"I will still hunt you Russell Miller. You will be my one thousandth kill."

He gave a smile before responding.

"I'll be waiting for you. Next time wear something more revealing."

"Tell Daniel I want my rematch one day," Hell spoke up.

"Once I see him on the plane, I'll be sure to. Now go on, get out of here before they see you."

"Thank you again Russell Miller." Heaven said as she and Hell drove off.

Russ opened his eyes and looked at Dan who was asleep thanks to painkillers. He smiled before settling down himself and passing out.

The Brothers had not returned to the council's meeting right away. They had diverted to the White council's hall to get the tape of Evan and Russell talking and how Russell had tricked Evan. That tape had just been played for the entire council. Icarus turned to Michelle, as he said, "Clearly there is evidence to support the claim the brother's have made against the Faction. You still refuse to allow Evan to speak under the Spell of Truth?"

Michelle had not heard anything Icarus said instead her eyes were locked on the brothers who stood defiantly beside Merlin. Michelle was so wrapped up in her own little world, and so full of anger she spoke and each word was full of hate and venom.

"Lies and slander is all that is. It is not Evan, I refuse to believe this is nothing more then a trick by you Merlin. Understand this Millers, If that tape of lies ever goes public for any reason, I will take it as act of war by the White council!" she hissed, Merlin lifted an eye brow as Alucard stopped drinking the brandy he had provided for the council.

Even Icarus was a bit shocked. "I will not respond with lawyers, or police. I will respond with force. I will attack every white council school and academy. I will have our forces kill ever man, woman, and child till we get to the brothers and kill them. And if we have to summon every demon of the abyss, every devil of the Nine Hells, and every angel of the heavens to do so I will! Now turn the brothers over to us!"

Emily and Angel were taken back by the demands and accusations of the Faction, never before had things gotten this tense in a meeting. Merlin stood his ground and said. "No, I will not allow you to extract revenge on them for the actions of their mother."

At that point Michelle lifted her hand and pointed at Merlin, "Then there shall be no peace until the brothers are dead! And when they loose control my agents will move in to kill them."

Michelle instantly Drew a Dagger from her waist band and stabbed it into the table and with it she yelled "Vi Victus, No`sonda!" After that she stood up leaving the dagger and with her Evan began to walk out as she shocked everyone. Her actions left the brothers dumbfounded as the sound of Alucard clapping. "Impressive, most impressive." he had a pleased smile on his face as Merlin turned to explain to the Brothers, "Basically she has made a stance that the Faction will work to oppose the White Council in every matter great and small until her demands are met, they will hinder us in all ways possible."

When the realization hit Russell of what he'd done, his ears laid back and he felt as sourness in his stomach. "Maybe doing this wasn't such a hot idea."

Angel put her hand on Russell's shoulder as she said, "No, it would have built to his eventually. Things have been tense between the guilds every since your mother went on the rampage. Even if you met the demands of Icarus, given her hatred of you, she would have kept pursuing you."

After things calmed down Icarus turned to the brothers, "Do you wish to have anything else to add for your defense?"

Looking at Dan, he said, "Your the brains in this."

"Michelle doesn't want our magic sealed away to prevent an incident like our mother, she wants revenge. She wants to make us suffer for our mother's actions. I won't deny that her points are viable. But one month's time, is not a lot of time, I'm asking you for six months."

Icarus looked at the brothers and Merlin as he closed his eyes reached up to stroke his chin, "Given the circumstances that have been brought to light, I will allow it, conditionally. You two must spend no less then ninety-six hours per week in the White Council training. At the end of your training period, providing you two have not lost control I will test you personally to your limits of control."

"What about the Faction? What if they pull some shit to make us screw up while on duty?" Dan commented.

"I will be personally be keeping an eye on you two, and if the Faction does interfere which they will be forbidden from, they will be dealt with harshly. Now unless Alucard Graves has objections, I will declare these proceedings closed until it is time for testing."

Alucard looked at the brothers and he said in a cool voice, "I have no objections what so ever." Because for him, with the Faction no doubt pulling all their resources to deal with the brothers, he would be free to operate his plans more effectively. This meeting had gone much better then he had hoped.
