Angel of Death and Angel Enigma



A little something for the CAU Prime stories....

Keres and Jessica have taken a aircraft specially designed so that one wouldn’t hear it coming. Keres knew a guy who he won it from during a bet. He didn’t want to take anything from LION as this mission that he’s going is of a personal nature. Jessica wanted part and from the expression of her face she will go regardless if Keres accepted or not.

The flight to where they are going is silent, the both of them haven’t said a word to each other outside of Jessica providing the co ordinance of the remaining coven. Vesogog, The Vampire Lord of said coven, had got what he deserved for the actions that he committed would condemned one to the worst level of hell imaginable. In Jessica’s case hell was too good for the monster so the worst punishment would be to consume him in the similar manner in which earned Jessica a fearful reputation among the villain and even Superhero community. Due to that she had acquired Vesogog’s memories, not only of his unforgivable act but memories that could help locate his remaining coven. Given the coven’s loyalty they will retaliate for Vesogog’s demise but Keres and Jessica wont give them time to form a counter attack.

They silently agreed LION would not be informed or involved in this. There simply is no word for what they would do. Vulgar obscenities worthy of their monstrous reputation slid through their mind, things that would make Gabriel shake her head in solemn pity. The other members of the Order have been through enough since that night. Drusilla, one of the toughest members next to Roger, Keres has known had to be consoled by Gabriel and Starling. There is one member who had it the worst and the mission would hunt him for the rest of his life. Also should lines be crossed they don’t want them taking any heat from the head officials. Keres has been under fire from them before and Jessica is aware of their opinions towards her. Most importantly they couldn’t bear to let the other members of The Order see what they will do.

While flying the aircraft Keres’s hands shook with near uncontrollable rage but he kept it contained long enough so he could use it to the ones who has it coming. Jessica had a look of pure emptiness, a kind that’s not really rage but unsettling. They are over the ocean they could see a small island “Reclusive, no one around to cause any risk of innocents being in the crossfire” Suits Keres and Jessica just fine. Jessica’s eyes grow about as dark as the night sky and wings slowly sprouted from her back. Darkness starts to consume the insides of the aircraft then soon the outer parts of it.

One member of the coven had walked out of his base of operations while the others were planning on a counter attack against the Order. Their base of operations is that of an old temple. He decided to go out on a hunt but he sniffed and caught something unsettling. He looked up and see what resembled a dark cloud looming towards. As the vampire examined what he sees to his horror isn’t clouds. Something terrible had assaulted his finely tuned senses …no that wasn't right. It had gripped them, and invaded them. The oppressive blackness was racing closer at an impossible speed.  

“That’s right, I want you to be scared. Just like he was” Keres said with his eyes his eyes grew hot with rage like molten gold

The very law of physics, of sanity itself warped beneath Angel Enigma's might. The darkness seemed to converge about her, form twisted ropes of clawed shadows that then opened into eyes and mouths. Hundreds of them…thousands…the same terrible blood red eyes and mouths that Angel Enigma possessed as the aircraft itself looked as if it had come alive with the roaring of what should have been a engine is replaced with that which is inhuman

The other vampires of the coven are alerted it’s leader who replaced Vesogog looked out. He no longer knew what God, or what higher power he prayed to. The entirety of his non life had been swept from his eyes and replaced only with this primal and pleading fear as what he looked up and saw was “Death”


Hours of unimaginable screams went into the night, it gradually died down and replaced with the roaring of the flames.

There was no satisfaction of what the two accomplished as they watched the temple burn and the remaining vampires with it. The emotions between Keres and Jessica who had now changed from her Angel Enigma form looked on. Keres still holds his sword in his hand that is stained with the blood of vampires. Jessica had assured they would meet their fallen master and suffer together. They have both reached into the darkest depths of their minds that night but no regret was shown.

Keres started to shake, not of rage. There are memories that he experienced in his immortal life that were horrible enough that he wanted to bury as deep as he could. What a member of the Order, who was a victim of a horrible attack caused by Vesogog, experience caused one of those memories to resurfaced. It was 1897, someone he cared about was viciously attacked by a vampire. He remember the restless nights she had, scrubbing herself frantically till her skin turned raw. He would be there to console her and promised that he would help her. He dropped his sword without giving any thought.

He felt Jessica embrace him, he remembers what she went through and that night must have caused some horrible memories to resurfaced. Either she did it to comfort him or to seek comfort herself doesn’t matter as Keres embraces her in return then continued to watch the temple burn. Despite the obvious in some way they both realize that they not too different.


The sun ascended over the ocean, it’s rays give the waters a majestic view. The light reaches to the island, the tress danced to the nice breeze that greeted them. Far out unto the island there is a lone aircraft, from the look it’s of a military or used to belong to it and it’s advanced beyond your usual military aircraft. Inside two people stir in the back of the aircraft. Keres shuts his eyes tight at the morning rays, a soft moan was enough to wake him up. He looked down at her, curled up next to him, her head and a hand lying on his chest. His mind recalled the events from last night, an act of empty revenge that led to both individuals finding comfort in one another when they needed it the most. He’s happy to see how peaceful Jessica looked and wanted it to remain for just a little longer.

Jessica awoke and her eyes looked up at Keres’s. Words don’t have to be spoken as they both are aware of what happened. “ We can never go back now” Keres whispered. “No we cant” Jessica agreed” Wouldn’t want to even if we can” Keres kissed her head gently signifying that he wouldn’t want to either. Jessica looked over to see her sword laid next to Keres’s sword about a few feet of her “ Don’t have to worry about them anymore”

He shook his head” No, yet they have allies” Jessica nods” They always do but we will take care of whatever comes our way, didn’t get our reputations for nothing. Just so you know if it’s ever brought up I wont hide this from Gabriel”

Stroking Jessica’s hair Keres responded” I’d prefer you wouldn’t. I could say the same when it comes to the Order members. ”

Jessica smiled” We’ll cross whatever bridge beyond that” Keres smiled in return and the two embraced each other. They are both unsure of what the future holds but are willing to face whatever befalls them
