Courtez spotted a hunter speeding towards Neil and the girl with the scythe and thought to interfere. He stepped in his path and raised the hunter sword, "Why don't you pick on someone your own size you bastard!," he yelled as he made a move to remove the hunter's arm.
Sojiro's breath was caught in her throat as the weight of her cousin and her death closed in on her. Her throughts drifted for a moment back to the night where she was attacked by the vampire; the fear, the pain, the look on nii-san's face as she lay in the hospital bed and the tears that flowed down her face durring physical therepy. looking over she say Ren's face and got a surge of courage.
She used all of her strength and pushed her cousin away from her. She clutched her chest as the memory of all the pain came back to her. Her eyes alighted with firey rage as she swung with full force and speed at her cousin. He dodged her attacks but not with out many cuts some of them deep. "It is people those monsters are hurting!," she screamed as she swung her sythe again.

Being forced to stop by the Protettore in front of him, Ren turned his head sharply and used the forced of his arm to push back the blade that had clashed with his own. "Don't think you'll get out of this if you intervene," he glared sharply at Courtez. "I don't forgive easily these days." Side stepping, Ren forced all the weight on his back right foot and then kicked off forcing himself forwards and bringing his gun and saber into a cross form that was blocked by the one blade. Digging his heels into the ground, Ren forced Courtez back sharply using the momentum of his body. Ren's eyes were all but slits as he continued to force Courtez back with the crossing of both his blade and his gun. "I won't shoot you," Ren leered. "That'd be too kind for what you're doing."
Neil was forced back and away from Sojiro as he tried to avoid the scythe that penetrated his fighting range as though it didn't exist. Dodging sideways to avoid a sudden quick diagonal cut to the shoulder, Neil felt the blade slash through his shoulder a fraction. Forcing the pole up to stop the blade from sinking in, Neil pushed back even more away from Sojiro and the scythe. Blood spattered the ground like a twisted rain as Neil seized the gash in his shoulder. Forcing himself to stand, Neil raised his pole in defiance. However, his breathing had been altered, and Neil knew Sojiro wouldn't give him a chance to recover. "Rukia!" he shouted out trying to buy a fraction of time. "Why are you doing this!"

Courtez was forced back by the man's power. He didn't look like much but the presence he comanded was staggering. He looked at him in fear but forced himself to look at him as though he was cute. This allowed to have some courage and retaliate with a few simple words,"Whats the matter honny? Afraid that your little friend will get murdered just like your friends? Oh don't worry she will!"
He began to laugh.

Ren stared stupidly for a full twenty seconds before he fully got Courtez. His eye twitched a bit, and the familiar homophobia was all but intoxicating him. "You're not like the weaklings here," he finally commented sliding back into an attack form. "At least you get the do or die concept... but you're about to die for that comment!" He shouted running forwards with his saber in hand once more. Twisting his wrist, Ren forced the blade sideways and made a slash directly at Courtez. He refused it. Absolutely refused to be talked to by a man that talked in that way.

Courtez laughed. "Well love," he smirked," Lets dance!"
He swung the barrowed sword towards the mans head but the blade was stopped but not before blood spurted from a deep gash in his chest. He had no idea how it happened or when he was struck. He looked at his chest for a fleeting moment with horror replacing the blood in his body. He looked at the enraged eyes of his attacker and fear caused him to freeze. The seconds ticked slowly by as pain absorbed him and it took more and more effort to keep swinging his sword and stay alive.
Sojiro paused and looked at her cousin with blood spattered on her face. She pulled off her trench coat and pulled her tanktop strap to the side a little to show the puncture wound that the vampire gave her. "YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT HAS BEEN LIKE FOR ME!!," she screamed at him," I HAVE BEEN ALMOST KILLED AND HAD TO ENDURE MONTHS OF PAIN BECAUSE OF ONE OF THOSE MONSTERS THAT YOU WANT TO PROTECT!"
She removed her hand and took several more swings not caring if they connected. "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!?"

Ren flicked the blood from the end of Saber within an instant and circled upwards again to meet Courtez's blade. "I outclass you easily," he glared sharply before using the force of Courtez's own swing against him and slamming him into a building. "Don't mess with Hunter Saber... I kill on both sides of the turf when I have to," he glared sharply crossing his blade with Courtez as both men stood frozen in the cross. He had... killed other hunters before. This had become a truth that Ren accepted, and because of it, he was paranoid.. even around Sven who had once been more of a friend than an ally, Ren had started to change... the times had changed.... Shoving his left hand still clasping the gun straight at Courtez's throat, Ren dropped the gun completely and used his hand to take hold of the Protettore's jugular vein. "Give me one reason why I should let you live," Ren's voice had a strangely twisted aura around it. Something that he could no longer contain. He had reasoned he was a sinner... had come to terms with it... and had somehow managed to turn himself into a devil through it.
Neil stood frozen. Completely an utterly frozen. All he could do was stare at Sojiro's shoulder for a few more seconds... Time had stopped for the Protettore. He had no comeback for what was done... a part of him wanted to raise the argument that she had brought it on herself... but even that was the wrong thing to say... towards family that was meant to be loved rather than hated. Instead, Neil said nothing. "Rukia...." he sighed after a few more minutes. "I'm sorry... I couldn't protect you...." he said quietly looking down. "Sorry...that you suffered from something... I wasn't there.... ." Neil looked up with a sudden extremely pained look on his face.

Courtez grasped for air as he weezed,"Cause.. I....have....someone....worth....living....for..."
An image of beautiful pale Jack raced though his mind. "And.. he...is...a...better....man...and..more...human....than..you...will...ever...be...", he whisped making a vampire like face at the hunter.
Sojiro paused for a moment of pity and looked at him straight in the face. "You know," she told him cocking her head to the side,"you are eight years too late to protect me."
She swung her scythe and it went straight through his stomach thorugh to the other side of his back. She loved the smell of the blood that hit her face and as she withdrew the blade. She once again gave him a smile and bent so close to his face that only he could hear the words she was saying. "It was good to see you again," she said,"and be happy aout the favor I did you."
She turned around to find the fighting done in the area and her subordinates had come to look for her.
"Any more Lady Scythe?", one asked.
"No," she said gesturing to Neil,"Just the one. Let him writhe alone. He won't live long."
She left him wondering if he would live and secretly hoping he would do so.

Ren's eye twitched sharply as he resisted the urge to have a sudden retaliated homophobe moment. It was driving in him, yet his incessant want to end it was what finally managed to keep him from completely freaking out. "Ya twisted freak," he glared back. "I'll kill you." Forcing his fingers tighter around Courtez's throat, Ren felt his own sharp emotion become part of the attack.. part of a driving force in him that also plummeted his soul to the depths of the darkness that he had fallen into. Bringing his blade up, Ren used Saber like a knife slowly bringing it closer and closer to Courtez's throat. Your soul is dead..... Ren froze. He had heard it many times before... this.....that... and the other... was dead... but never his soul... Ren shook his head sharply and brought the blade close slicing through a large portion of Courtez's throat before releasing his body. Ren turned his eye and found Sojiro appeared done as well. "Let's move, Sojiro," he said darkly starting to walk away again with his sword unsheathed in his right hand. He had not bothered to pick up the gun. Neil lay in a pool of his own blood his eyes wide with the sudden extreme fear that he might leave the world completely. There was something vastly instinctual about wanting to live.... probably dating back to the days of lesser organisms. However, there was also something else in his body.... left not from the wound to the stomach but the wound to the heart....Rukia... I'm sorry.....sorry....sorr-..... Neil's thoughts were quiet as he fell into the unconsciousness around him that felt more like an eternal rest than anything else. Blood continued to pool out of him like a stream that trailed red rivers into the street. Jack Hearthacker stood above the massacre of werewolves with a bottle of red wine blood in one hand and a knife in the other. Aurora had all but driven him to a strange depression that he couldn't quite make out, yet he was there... in Asia surrounded by Hunters... none ready to make the move on a vampire that could easily cut them to pieces being legendary in the art of it already. He had come... more out of an impulse to see one of the gay friends he had made within the Protettore... a group he rarely associated with if at all... but he had yet to see Courtney yet... the city was large as it was.
The bloodshed of the werewolves had not affected the vampire in the least. Over the years, he had become accustomed to being cold towards the group that was the rival breed not to mention the fact that he had spilled his own of human blood many times before. Jack the Ripper... he was named it for a reason.... Jack had watched with a dull aspiration that one gives something that was once amusing. However, as his eyes caught sight of what appeared to be a Hunter and Protettore fight, Jack froze. Courtez?? Jack shook his head disoriented suddenly by what was going on. He had suddenly decided to care, and now he had no idea what was going on. As the other hunter seemed to be walking away from a sudden slashed Courtney, Jack was all but flying down to meet him. As the hunter disappeared, Jack was running straight up to Courtez. "Courtney? Courtez? Are you ok? Courtney?" Jack asked looking with a sudden worry at his gay friend.

Courtez looked at Jack with his blurry vision but could imagine the beautiful pale face of the amazing vampire that he held so dearly. He reached his hand up and touched the blobs cold face as he gasped for air. ,"I...have...always...w-wanted...to.... be-e...with...you-u....but...it's...tooo....late...now"he gasped shakily.He could barely breathe and ended up coughing up blood onto the blob's face. "I...will...miss.....youuuu.....Jaccccc....", he whezzed before his world began to go black, cold, and calm all in the same moment. For the first time in years he felt at peace with himself and the world.

Jack felt what could only be described as a numb sensation inside him before doctor's instinct seemed to smash down on him that Courtez was not going to live. "Courtez....." Jack said knowing he was unable to return the feelings that Corutez had just brought up but didn't want him to die either. The slash to the throat... could not be healed by a mortal doctor... Jack understood this beyond reason... and what he needed to do... to save the life of a friend... Forgive me for this..... Jack thought to himself for half a second before he leaned down and carefully sunk his teeth into Courtez's shoulder. After less than half a second, he pulled away not truly thirsty in the least. "London... Bridge is falling down... falling down... falling down... London Bridge is falling down....my... fair...lady."

Courtez's world turned dark and cold all in the same moment. I am dead...I am dead...I am dead..... was all he could think about as his mind spread out into the world around him... He felt so at peace with the darkness that held him like a loving mother that in this state his mind swam around him. It felt like he was on clouds and in the best place in the world. He was having the time of his death until icy hot pain hit him so hard that it snapped his whole world. The darkness fell to blinding light in pain that it made him twist and writhe. He felt his lungs fill with air as he screamed and opened his eyes.
He saw someone that in a distant memory looked familiar as though he had loved this cold beautiful person, but the thought was cast aside as the most heavenly sent filled him. He looked at this beautiful person with a sence of hunger as the pain hit him again. Bite him... a voice in the back of his mind told him as pain coursed through him. Courtez looked at the person's white marble wrist and grabbed it with speed that he has never known before and bit into it. The taste of it was more satisfying than a drink after a walk through a desert.
He kept drinking and teh pain went slowly away. After several minutes he reluctanly broke away from the person's wrist and looked at their face again. "Jack..", he said softly as the memory camp back to him,"thank you.."
He gave the vampire a hug and was surprised by the warmth he gave off. "What happened to me?", he asked as he looked at his newly pale hands.

Jack stared up at the sky above him feeling even more cold than usual as he continued to hum to himself the song that had all but been written into his very being. However, as Courtez seemed to flinch from under where hew as laying, Jack looked down at him quietly for a minute. Being suddenly seized by the wrist and bitten all but caused Jack to recoil. He hadn't been bitten since the first time nearly a thousand years ago, and it all butt frightened him to be suddenly bitten. However, he made no movement to pull or tear away. He understood all too well the pain that fledglings would go through if they did not taste their creator's blood directly after transforming. So he waited... and allowed the new vampire to bite his arm... until after a few minutes, Courtez seemed satisfied and released his arm. Jack let what could only be described as a dead sigh outwards.
Receiving the hug, Jack found a calm face move onto his features, and as Courtez asked what had happened, the vampire was silent for a moment. "You were dying... and I as a medical person ... couldn't do anything," he sighed and shook his head a bit. "But me as... a vampire.. could." Jack reached up and touched one of his fangs a fraction before looking away again unsure of what Courtez would do on the matter.
