Rayden's ears picked up the sound of the howls drifting down from the mountains. He knew that sound,having made it himself back before he was enlightened to the violence of his people. It was the howls of a horde of vampires hungry for blood. Hearing the order to prepare for battle,Rayden ran until he reached the edge of the village. His wrist blades were deployed and his guns were locked and loaded. Turning to the village leader,he said to him and the villagers,"Get your people out of here,there is no way you can fight them. Thats a horde of them coming down here. I don't know how long I can hold out,but it won't be long,not with those numbers. Give the order to move,before they arrive. Now!". The villagers quickly gathered essential supplies and emptied the village. Turning back to look at the forest,Rayden could already see things moving in the shadows. It won't be long now. He had to get ready.
