Aries felt his blood going cold, how had he managed to mess up so badly? When Luca quietly whispered to him Aries blinked, though as he thought he softly shook his head... He honestly wasn't sure. However, it did seem that the vampires weren't attacking right away... While only made him more uneasy. Were they waiting for someone? Something? Or had they simply not expected to find a pair of hunters and another vampire?<br/><br/>Above them Aries soon heard voices, glancing up he could see a pair of vampires looking down at them. "It's not them..." One murmured, and soon some quiet bickering followed that even Aries couldn't hear. "Well... a meal... should be easy..." He heard a few of the words, and soon there seemed to be a sudden surge as though one had given a signal to the others and the onslaught began.<br/><br/>Aries was quick to ensure Seth was behind them, while he wanted to protect Luca too he knew that trying to keep both out of danger would be impossible, and Luca could handle himself generally. The first vampires came at them hard, one making a remark about how sweet Luca smelled... And Aries realized that they must be unaware of Luca's blood... Well, that was one advantage for them.<br/><br/>He didn't have much more time to think though as a vampire pounced on him and bit into his shoulder, though the little vampire wasted no time in ripping the other's throat out with a snarl of his own, the vampire dropping to the ground. The next followed right behind, this one taking the chance to rip Aries away from Seth and toss him to the ground, the two tussling. There were so many of them, and Aries found himself so concerned with getting back to Seth that he could hardly think about anything else, using any means necessary to dispatch the vampire atop him before rushing after the one currently targeting the new hunter. How were they going to handle another six or seven or more? He was panicked, mind blank aside from his goal to keep the humans safe... He wouldn't forgive himself if either of them were harmed here, where he had led them.
