Flanking the lycans from west was Kohl. In the dense woods for whatever reason the lycans had small groups spread out throughout them. The bigger, stronger and faster lycans were farther north. It made no sense in a war for the lycans to be spread out like that, but then again the species wasn't know for their intelligence. It made wiping out large numbers much easier, he wasn't expecting to have to release so many changed lycans. And a lot of children. He even ran into humans, particularly women, that had been caged. Not a single person in the cages looked healthy anymore. All of them were too thin, covered in dirt and some even looked sickly. Seeing the children made him more angry than anything. As planned he directed them down the hill toward the witches that would protect them. As they pushed through the forest toward the main area he could hear Elizabeth and the slaughter of lycans. They never stood a chance against her. As him and his team got closer they finally

They had finally reached the base of the mountain where the vehicles could no longer go. It was a long ride and for about a hour and a half of it was driving over rocks and large bumps or falling into holes. It made Nora and Amelia nauseated. "Okay, we make camp here for the night." Borislav instructed once everyone had gotten out. "Gabriel please find wood and rocks so I can make a campfire. It is cold and gets much colder during the night." Gabriel did as asked without a single quip, Peter and Kohl were both surprised by that, Elizabeth however was not surprised. He was anxious just like everyone else was, and if he was like the other vampires at all he was torn between going into purgatory and possibly never coming out or not going into it and watching the world be destroyed. For Peter, Jen, Kohl, and Elizabeth not going in wasn't even a fleeting thought. They knew it needed to be done, and done it would be, no matter what was laying before them. The fire pit was made

The door to purgatory was barely seen. Unless you were specifically looking for it, you'd probably miss it. Everyone had some form of reaction to seeing it, most people got a sickening feeling in the pits of their stomachs. Borislav was overwhelmed with guilt, that night flashing through his brain. He could the echoes of Camilla's screaming for her mother as she was thrown in there, the way they met thier eyes and he stared into them as the door shut. Borislav and Kohl had the most visible and intense reactions to seeing that door. "Set up camp now." Kohl ordered his eyes never wavering from the door, everyone's eyes were still glued to the door. They actually found it. There is was, the door to hell, physically in front of them. Suddenly the rumors, the stories, the myths and legends behind purgatory and this door were all real. All the creatures that may be hiding behind the door were more real than they had ever been, they'd only be more real, if they were in fact real.

The sonar sounds the bats were making now were ear piercing and getting louder as they slowly descended toward them all. "You guys they're getting closer." Jen said worridly gripping onto to Peter tighter than she ever had. "Yeah we can see that Jen." Nora snapped uncaringly. She'd been walking behind them all by just a few feet, tears slowly rolling down her face. She was thinking about Kyle. She knew they needed Camilla in order to defeat Luka so that she could get to Kyle, but a part of her was angry that they were saving Kohl's love while her heart breaks. Feeling that way made her also feel guilty, because she knew it wasn't his fault that it happened to be now that he'd find his soulmate after so many centuries, and that it's the one thing he's been missing his entire, very long existance. Everyone ignored Nora's attitude, but continued watching the bats as they got closer. They reached the boat and as soon as Kohl put a hand on it the bats began to circle about them in

Nothing stirred throughout the rest of the night, except for the trees. And as dawn finally came Elizabeth went and hunted something down for the humans to eat. By this time Jen was now just a pile of ash, which when Peter saw her he broke down crying again. Sitting just out of sight was Freya, the little fairy who'd been Elizabeth's best friends for many centuries. She wasn't prepared to meet everyone else yet, not without Elizabeth there. Fairies had quite the terrible reputation, it was mostly well deserved though some were exceptions. Elizabeth returned soon after dragging a boar's body behind her. "I'll be honest I was surprised I could find anything for you guys to eat. And definetly not so quickly. How many blood bags do we have left? I still have awhile before I'll need to feed, but I gotta know." "Eight." Gabriel answered looking in the backpack. "Thanks for getting the food." "No problem, can you guys please start the fire over here while I prepare the boar?" T
