Lightning hesitated before before drawing her weapon, if Magnus died she would have no way of knowing if her family was safe, only he knew where they were being held. "Call off the SOLDIER squad...now.."She said aiming at Mithias. Her weapon was currently loaded with high powered shotgun munitons, at this range even a ancient vampire would be blown to bits if they didn't doge the shot. The last thing she needed was for more SOLDIER to come, surely they would kill her for aiding Magnus...

"Oh, but you are wrong. The elder vampires only cower for fear of them being destroyed, if there are no more SOLDIER, there will be no more reason to hide. Surely they would either join me or form a army of their own. Without SOLDIER, vampires could do as they please. You honestly don't think we would eliminate the human race, do you? No. We will capture them, use them as slaves, feed on them at will. But, why am I sitting here, telling you my plans? You won't live long enough to see them through." Magnus told him. "If you think idle threats will make my followers abandon me, you are wrong. Vampires aren't much different than humans in terms of loyalty. If there were any SOLDIER coming, why didn't they come with you? Surely if they were you wouldn't be foolish enough to track me by yourself."

He grinned as he said this, many a time SOLDIER had threatend him. Scouts, random patrols, all dead or turned to serve him. He knew by now how SOLDIER worked, if there was a search team they would have came with him. If Mithias wasn't going to conform to what he said, Magnus would kill him, it made no difference to him.
