It wasn't long before they found them, and when they did Aries was the one to enter their den while Alex remained outside... He didn't have to interfere when he had a monster like Aries to do the work for him. Aries gave his usual, pained plea for the vampires to back down, to leave the humans alone... Though as Aries' eyes truly focused on the scene even he could tell that there was no reason to give such a warning... The bodies here were torn apart, perhaps from fighting vampires, and some were clearly old. He wanted to vomit, he wanted to hate the vampires before him, he wanted to grieve for the corpses... But instead, all he could do was hate himself. If he had come sooner, if he wasn't a monster too, if he could just kill all of them...<br/><br/>It was a group of five or six that Aries was soon pitted against, but even as he was bitten and gouged, his own thick blood flowing down to meet the human blood on the floor, it was clear that the crazed redhaired vampire was not planning on falling. He knew if he killed these vampires then there were less to harm Luca if he came to this town... He was selfishly hoping to help Luca still, like a fool. When the small vampire did finally hobble out of the building to meet with Alex again his grey eyes were hazy, his sweatshirt bore more tears near his vitals, and a bite mark on his neck was still seeping. He looked like a mechanical doll that someone had fashioned to be macabre. And maybe that's all he was now.<br/><br/>Alex smiled seeing the little vampire return so soon... It meant they could go on another job tonight. "Feeling good, kid?" He asked, gripping Aries' hood and some of the red strands beneath it to tip his head up to look at him. This kid was nuts, but he was damn profitable and easy to control... If only he had found him again before that human brat then he wouldn't have had to leave the city for this crap fest. Well, Luca surely couldn't catch up to them anytime soon with the state he must be in, so it was just a matter of time before Aries became his completely. "Come on, let's go. You still need to do more before you can be forgiven." He said with a grin and Aries nodded. Alex still seemed.. kind in his eyes, the man was only punishing a monster after all, so Aries couldn't see him as a bad person. Not when he was willing to help a disgusting thing like him.
