For that, I am proud to have chosen the right person to sire." Magnus told him with a grin, thinking of his plan of attack to possibly counter Dresden's. If Dresden were to try the same thing on him he could easily evade the sweep, as he would be expecting it. "Now, get up. Let's finish our little duel before all the fun is over."

But they both knew that the small amount of SOLDIER outside were no match for the vampire forces. Eventually, the chaos stopped and went silent. Matt listened as closely as he could, he could here Johnathan shouting orders faintly. "Don't let your guard down! They're still there and they will be here soon!" Matt yelled to the group of SOLDIER around him. They were outnumbered, but they were prepared.
