m and could only buy some time.

“When… when did it turn out like this? You protecting me instead of me protecting you.” Xander thought while running out of the lab.
He wouldn’t let Layla’s sacrifice be in vain.
He knew it wouldn’t matter if he stayed back because if she couldn’t deal with Laxmus, he wouldn’t be the latter’s match either.
This was why he decided through his head instead of his heart.

Exiting the entire building, Xander could see several vampires and squad leaders heading toward the lab.
It made him grit his teeth harder as he saw what mess Layla would have to try and get out of.

However, they weren’t the main concern.
Jumping up, Xander landed on one of the building’s rooftops and started to run across the town, avoiding as many people as possible.

“I shouldn’t worry too much.
Not everyone in the Red Vampires is aligned with Laxmus.
There will definitely be someone willing to help Layla as well.
Maybe I can do something.”

As Xander thought this, his worst fears came to light, as he could see a figure with a hood in front of him in the distance.
Then, looking to his left, right, and behind him, he found himself surrounded by three more, a total of four and all wearing hoods covering their face.

“Xander, we will give you a chance as another fellow guardian.
Please give yourself in, and don’t let this turn ugly.” One of the Guardians called out in a male voice.

“You guys know nothing!” Xander shouted back.
“Don’t you know what type of person Laxmus is? Didn’t some of you used to follow Quinn?”

“He would have never used the red crystal to turn everyone into vampires, and that might not even be Laxmus’s end goal in the first place.
How can you trust someone like him?!”

Xander’s whole body had turned into a mist, but it was impossible to cover the vast area that all Guardians were covering.
They were standing too far apart.
Still, out of the mist, red aura lines came out, like a single blade towards the others.

Some of the guardians avoided this, while one or two of them had used their shadow to stop the attack, with one physically grabbing the red aura and throwing it out to the side, hitting one of the buildings.

“This is going to be a tough fight with four of them.
I can’t use my shadow because I’m low on it, and Vincent is inside the space.”

“The only good thing is that while he’s in there, his wound and state don’t downgrade because of the slow flow of time.”

“Still, fighting against one of them would be hard enough, never mind four, and they know my mist ability well, having fought side by side for years.”

When Xander thought things couldn’t get worse, it looked like another nodded vampire had arrived in a black robe.
So there were now five guardians that he had to face.

“Oh right, and the longer this fight goes on, the more guardians and maybe even more people will get involved.”

“Don’t any of you care about Layla?!” Xander shouted, hoping to convince some of them.

“She is a leader of the Red Vampires as well.
Surely some of you follow her more and not Laxmus.
The two are in a stalemate at the moment.”

Trying to convince one of the guardians to switch was the only thing Xander could think of, even though he knew it was unlikely.
The Guardians always respected Laxmus more, unlike the regular Red Vampires, because he was the one that had given them their shadow powers.

The five kept their distance.
Then, simultaneously they raised hands and started swinging away, producing multiple red slashes of aura towards the mist.
There were so many attacks that at least one was bound to hit Xander, and he also knew this.

Trying to survive, he remained in the fog, releasing his own bloody aura, striking and breaking them when the two forces collided, but it seems that he’ll soon be finished, as he will not be able to stop all of them.

Just then, leaping from the ground, two figures entered the mist, and suddenly, more aura appeared out of it.
And it turned out that the new auras were just as powerful as the Guardians attacks.
So at that moment, all the Guardians decided to stop their attacks to see what was happening.

The mist from Xander slowly dissipated.
Now, standing by his side were a man and a woman.
The man had show hair, while the woman had dark brown hair that went up to her shoulders and a hair band holding it.

“We will help you.” The female said.

“June… Kev… what are you…” Xander was speechless.

“You have always told us that you’re training us for this very day.
So here we are.
Don’t worry, Dad.” The male vampire replied.
