(Y'know, fuck it. I'll interfere with an unusual character I've been working on lately.)

A hallowed and hollow wind blows between Naize and Bane, separating them.

"Now now, Bane Malice. It isn't polite to kill a friend." a dry, amused voice says.

Naize shifted quickly, Running for it

The person watches Naize run for a moment, their maroon eyes glimmering with amusement and life. That's right, little Naize. Run.

Devon nodded at the first, "Are you sure…something feels…off…bad…" he muttered, sitting up, "I don't think whatever is happening is good…"

June was sitting in a tree, somewhere in the woods, reading a book, twirling her knife, she had some blood on her clothes from her recent victim.

Osiris nervously laughed. “No… whatever is happening is not good. Someone is going to die. A few people are set to die. Someone is already dead..”

—

Bane hissed at Naize. “You dumb little cat!” The color of his eyes fluctuated. Fractured even. He flicked his hand, and claws shot out from under his nail bed. He rushed after the cat, scratching the trees and shedding them of their bark. He let out an inhuman roar. While chasing down the kitty cat, he saw June. “You.” He snarled, stopping in his tracks. “You should die once and for all. “ He walked up to the tree June sat in. Bane grabbed a dagger off of his belt and aligned it with her heart. Rushing behind her, he stabbed her through the heart. Pulling the dagger out, he watched the blood trickle out of the hole. Bane licked the blood off the dagger. “Should have died a long time ago, bitch.” He knocked the body off of the tree and continued running after Naize.

Naize ran her best, telling for luna and trying to use her magic and stop him

"who died?" Devon asked, getting up and putting his shoes back on. He was not going to just sit around when someone dies. He knew his sister could sense death, but he had never been able to.

June sensed Bane coming, but it was to late, by the time she did the knife pierced her heart, and she died.

The person lets Bane kill June, then wraps a single hand around his arm, their unbelievable strength stopping the crazed hellhound cold. Their elbow slams into the base of Bane's skull, knocking him out. They pick up the now unresisting Bane and sling him over a shoulder. The last thing Bane should hear before he blacks out is a soft, aristocratic laugh. They bring Bane to the house, then snap. The others appear in front of the house as well. The maroon-eyed person was cloaked in white, with a dark red doublet. Their black pants were finely tailored, and a single chain hung from their right ear, on which was a small, maroon ruby. A sword sheathe hung from their hip, a finely made piece. A soft laugh escapes them, revealing the inhuman acuity of their incissors.

Naize whimpered, noting the person oh so familiar

"who died?" Devon asked, getting up and putting his shoes back on. He was not going to just sit around when someone dies. He knew his sister could sense death, but he had never been able to.

Osiris bit his tongue. How did you break it to someone about who had died. “Well buttercup, remember your sister?” He looked at Dev with solemn eyes. He knew his cousin was going to be hated, but there was no way to stop natural instincts. “She’s the dead one. Your sister died.”

(For referance, this person is a vampire and they are at an ungodly height of 9'6". And I'm just going to let y'all try and figure out their gender, lol.)
(And note, everyone is in front of the house, excluding Luna, Lis and June.)

The person kneels in front of Naize.

"Hello, Naize. Long time no see." they say, their voice neither masculine nor feminine, somehow sounding like both. Their words are cultured, noble, for they were a vampire aristocrat. And one of the oldest, at that. "I see you've fallen in with this motley group. Mind if I ask why?"

Devon froze, his eyes going dark for a second, "Bane killed her?" He asked. He paused, taking a deep breathe, his eyes going back to red like normal. "its fine…she had it coming"

The vampire looks over, raising their voice.

"Yes, Bane killed her." he says.

Naize shifted, her bobcat ears, deer horns, tail, and her human body all one. “ they've saved me more times than I can count. I've missed you my dear friend!” she said, hugging them.

The vampire lifts Naize easily, laughing.

"Is that so? Well, I suppose any friend of Naize's is a friend of mine!" they reply, looking around.

"Speaking of which, where is Alice?" they ask.

Osiris looked at the creature and scoffed. “And frankly, I don’t think you should forgive him. How could you still trust someone that drives off your lover and kills your sister.” He shakes his head acting as if he’s innocent. “And don’t act like being in a feral rage is an excuse. It’s not. No matter if you can’t tell friends from enemies. Still a monster worth putting down.” Osiris unfortunately still wanted to exploit his cousin. “Isn’t the fresh blood all over him enough to make you revolted?” He raised an eyebrow.

“ I'm not sure..” she said softly, cuddling up to the vampire. She purred in their arms

"That is fair, little one." they murmur.

The vampire looks at Osiris, raising an eyebrow.

"Osiris. Son of Orthus, no?" they ask. "I've heard much about you and Bane Malice, mostly from your father. Horrible man. But what can you do when he's friends with the Devil himself?"

Naize smiled softly, the vampire had always been a bigger sibling to them, “ why have you come back?”

"I felt the need to tell you that there's a large group of people headed this way. Assumably from his-" they point at Bane. "-family. I also wanted to see you."

They turn to the others. "My name is Seriph Inasoke. Otherwise known as the Oligarch."

Osiris rolled his eyes. “Well yeah, but dad’s dead. Uncle’s a monster. And Bane is his little mini-me. What can you do about it?” His jaw tightened and he narrowed his eyes. “And I mean it when I say I want to hear no excuses for this beast. It’s a shame we’re kin.” Osiris holds his head up high, trying to look sophisticated and pure. “Uncle has always been horrible. It’s in his blood and it flows through his offspring. My dad was kinder and smarter. Better than his brother!” He shifted. “I don’t care who you are or what you want.”

Naize chuckled “ it is nice to see you too” she said, nestling her head in seriphs neck.( naize ignoring danger because her big sibling here)

(Lol, that's fair! Just wasn't sure if you'd seen or not, given the chaos of the replies.)
(Lol, yeah. . . Naize seems to be the most innocent out of all of them.)

Seriph smirks. "Do you mind if I share a few memories with you, Osiris? I can give you Bane's whole story. Then again, fair trade. He'd need yours."

They tilt their head. "And if he's a monster, what does that make you?"

Devon closed his eyes and slapped Osiris on the back of the head in Shut up before you make them hate you.

Seriph laughs at Dev's actions.

"Ah, so you're the brother? It appears you're trying to tame Osiris. Well, good luck with that, I suppose. You'll need it."

Osiris growled. “No! I don’t want to know it! I already know his story! It’s dumb and sad! There’s no excuse for a murder. Why the hell do you care so much? He went bonkers because some girl he liked ran off.” He shuttered with anger. “Suck it up buttercup! That’s what he needs to learn.” He crept close to the person in question. “I’m not giving him anything. He doesn’t deserve to know who I am or why I do the things I do!” He grit his teeth, keeping himself from the temptation to break someone’s neck. “Better then a creature that murders without reason. Not for survival. Just because they want to spill blood.” He turned to Dev and snapped. “DON’T SMACK ME IN THE HEAD, DAMNIT!”

Seriph smirks, then doesn't even seem to move. But there they are, standing inches away from Osiris. They lean close.

"I would watch your words, if I were you." they murmur.
