Chapter 320 – Unholy Reunion

"We're already on our second week. There's a high chance she'll strike at any moment. We don't have time to go places, and risk things."

'Besides, you're supposed to be a frigging dragon mutor!'

And Enira knew that. But something did bother her. "What if they show up regardless and wreak havoc unable to find you?"

She was just behind him, walking with hands behind her back. Though cold, this was still a cakewalk to her. After all, she was in peak form right now. 

"I doubt that. They're probably tracking me. And they'd-"

"What makes you so sure?"

After all, the aliens had always prepared to come hunt them, so they could have easily come to earth and just gone around killing people. 

"Well, I'm sure for two reasons. One, that woman was kind of crazy, and two, she and the third share quite a lot of similarity- frighteningly so." He grinned. "Besides, for the last hour or so- there's someone spying on us. They've hidden themselves quite well, so I can't-"

"Oh, so I've been discovered?" A melodious voice. 

Helio had heard it before. 

"Well, that was anticlimactic." He grinned. "I didn't think you'd show yourself before me after what happened the last time."

A woman had manifested out of seemingly nowhere. White clothes- blonde hair and red eyes. "I suppose you can say that."

A vampire.

And Helio knew her all too well. 

"I suppose you wanted to die too badly." He unsheathed his sword, taking a stance. 

"No, no!" the girl raised her hand, surrendering. "I just came to talk to her, nothing more." She was sweating in buckets. 

This cold weather wasn't enough to calm herself. 

She was currently in her proper human form and her voice was also quite human.

"That geezer almost died because of you. And you had the nerve to kidnap my sister, and now you claim that-"

"It's okay-" Enira said. "Let me handle this."

Helio wasn't convinced and he wasn't going to just watch this whole thing from the sidelines either. But for the time being, he pretended to go along. 

"Now-" Enira faced the vampire. "Explain yourself?"

Half of the vampire's face was covered in a mask. She slowly walked and stood just in front of Enira. And- "I missed you so much!" She grabbed Enira, hugging her like they were long-lost lovers. She even tried to kiss her but Enira just dodged. 

They were pretty much the same height and their proportions were similar. 

Helio meanwhile just stared. 

Enira cleared her throat and got out of the woman's clutches. "Explain?" She was slightly flustered, a bit sweaty. But not hostile. 

'Why do I get a bad feeling?'

The woman fidgeted ever so slightly. "I've finally found you." She squirmed. "Those terrible years in the void were worth it!" 

Helio gently held his sword right at the girl's neck and smiled. "Explain."

"Ri-right." She took a breath. "I'm Breya, her elder sister." She proudly presented herself. 

"What?" Helio said. 

"What?" Enira said. 

"The hell are you surprised for?" Helio grabbed Enira's furry coat. 

The vampire woman- Breya sniffed. "You've forgotten about me?"

'Was she always like this?' Last time, this woman was so fierce and she tried to attack and all that, but now she was crying? 

Helio had better things to worry about. But all this was rubbing him the wrong way. 

He was dead set on killing this vampire but the situation was just becoming crazier and crazier. 

"Actually, I kind of ran amok for some four decades after eating way too many cores, so-" Enira looked away slightly embarrassed. "But thanks to that, even after consuming twice as much as before, I'm still fine!" 

Helio exhaled. "Let me get this straight. You were her sister and that's why you wanted her? Then why the hell did you kidnap my sister? And why the hell did you attack the geezer? You could have just come to me and-"

The weather was gradually worsening again. The wind was picking up and things were starting to feel cold; too cold. 

"Well, I thought you were keeping her forcefully and sexually abusing her. I didn't hear many great things about you." The woman didn't look Helio in the eye, rather she just looked at the ground, a bit flustered, a bit scared. "And my apprentice was the one who attacked him… and you guys killed her- you also attacked me and kind of struck a nerve… but yeah…" She again started sweating. "But enough of that!" She changed the subject. "So, did you lose your memories?" She grabbed Enira's shoulders and shook her, poking her cheeks. She proceeded to poke her chest. "And you've actually outgrown me, too." She wondered and then squirmed in joy. 

"Unfortunately, I still remember you…" Enira answered, dejected. She then stared back at Helio. "She's basically like you but on steroids. Sis com at its finest."

"I do not have a sis complex!" Helio and Breya said in unison, staring at each other for a moment. "I do not!" And again, spoke in unison. 

And then both shut up for a good minute. 

Enira let out a giggle. 

"Anyway," Breya sniffed her sister in various places; various places. "You reek, we need a shower. Let's go!" She grabbed her arm. "Ah, finally, a shower. After so long." She squirmed. It wasn't that she hadn't showered in a while, rather, it was just that she hadn't showered in a while with her sister. 

"Unfortunately, we don't have time for that," Helio said. "They'll be here any moment and-"

"Don't be such a buzzkill." After saying it and looking at Helio's eyes, Breya again stared at the ground, a bit scared. "Are you worried about the Xenes coming back?" her voice was small. 

"Xenes?"

"That's what they call themselves." Ahem! "They're actually planning a mass invasion and should be here in approximately two days."

"And you know that because?" Helio raised a brow. 

The weather had worsened even more. And they knew they couldn't stay out here for long. 

"Well," She fingered her cheek and smiled. "I might or might not have slept with a soldier to extract some information…"

"Pretty sure, they're using some sort of mechanism to remotely control the soldiers, so that's a load of crap."

"Fine…" She surrendered. "I'm a half Xene. We had the same mother." She removed a small bracelet and almost immediately her skin turned slightly translucent- her veins and arteries could be seen through the skin. "Though sometimes they do come out personally if that wasn't obvious."

She put it on again.

Helio straightened his back, staring. "And?"

"And through some careful seduction in the future, I managed to get this bracelet." She showed Helio a small bracelet of sorts. "They call this a link. You can access a lot of their news from anywhere in the world. This runs through the principle of the void realm; it'll probably work forever. Took me a while to learn the language and how to use it, but cool, ain't it?" She puffed up her chest. 

'Basically, teleporting the information…' Helio paused. "How big would the army be?"

"They don't say. But I'm positive they'd be here the day after tomorrow. And there should be more than a few commanders." But as she saw Helio's grin- she realized, he was actually planning on fighting them…Breya didn't let go of Enira. "I can just warp us out of here…." She whispered to her. "He's crazy!" She whispered and made sure Helio couldn't listen in. 

The windy terrain covered her words- or so she thought. 

  But Helio heard that just fine- he acted ignorant though. 

Enira meanwhile just nodded a no. She had reasons of her own to not run away. 

"Then I suppose we have to prepare well before that." Helio slammed his hands together, utterly serious. 

Breya wasn't really that convinced. Let her little sister fight an invasion? She'd seen what those things were like- she didn't want to go through it again. And she certainly didn't want her sister to go through it. 

After eighty or so years they were finally meeting. She was definitely going to protect her this time. 

"About that-" Enira said. "Can we please go get some clothes now?" She came close to Helio. "I really, really need new underwear and a shower," She whispered. 

But when Breya heard stuff about clothes and Underwear- her lips immediately curled up and formed a grin. 'A shower!'

The invasion was two days away. This risk- this was worth it! According to her of course. 

Helio was strong and knew he could take that soldier woman if she came again- assuming she didn't improve too much. But if she came a lot stronger, then he'd have to use his last resort, which he wanted to avoid at all costs. 

So empowering Enira was his best bet. 

And keeping Enira in a good mood was his best way to make sure, she'd fight for him to the last breath. 

In reality, Helio didn't trust anyone- not even himself. 

He'd lived alone in that white room for over fourteen years. he didn't have any reason to trust anyone. And he had no plans on trusting them either. 

Perhaps it was that reason that drove him to seal his metal link with Enira. Right now, he couldn't hear her, and she couldn't hear him. 

"Alright, but we're not going anywhere near home," Helio took flight. Breya and Enira also started flying just behind him. 

Even now, he wasn't sure why he was fighting. Perhaps to gain freedom? Perhaps for revenge or perhaps….

Shockwaves blitzed through the sky!
