Lethal Attractions

"I thought we could be friends, Blaze, but I guess that went to the grave!" I yelled. "Brother, Sisters, Mother, Father! Get her! I don't care if you kill her or not!"

Blaze's eyes widened in surprise and she froze the charge. She quickly recovered and assumed a fighting stance instead. The ghouls, zombies or whatever you want to call them, followed my command and rushed at the albino. My mom pulled out a pistol, Stephen held a stone, Rachel had a knife, Danny had a rope entwined in his fingers, and Nicole had her bare, but potentially dangerous, hands.

I thought of what I wanted them to do, and they executed my orders perfectly, but Blaze dodged most of their attacks. The ones they were able to land were minor and healed quickly.

I gave them another command and Stephen threw his stone and hit her square in the forehead. She fell back and tried to catch herself with no success. As she fell slowly from her trying to regain balance, Rachel threw her knife, Christina fired her gun, and Nicole hung back away from the fight with Danny. The knife burrowed into her stomach and caused her to cough up deep red blood. The bullet hit her arm and temporarily disabled it. She finally fell on her back and then crawled up onto her hands and knees, coughing and choking on more blood.

I smirked and the next thing I knew, I was pinned to the ground. I lost my concentration and my undead family crumpled to the earth like sacks of potatoes. I closed my eyes once I started falling and opened them to see Claude's golden eyes over me. I screamed and thrashed under him as I tried to get away. I didn't want to go back.

But he straddled my waist and held my hands over my head with one hand. With the other, he quickly muffled my screams. My eyes widened in terror and my breath came in quick, heavy pants. I looked around to try to find Blaze or anyone else. Not like she'd be any help to me, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep an eye on her.

'Sebastian said he had backup. Where are they? Dammit. And where'd Blaze go?'

"Ah, you made a bit of a mess! Why would you dig up people that I buried?" a man clad in black said as he strutted out of the shadows. He had pale skin and his hair was long and gray and even had a braid or two. But I doubt it was gray from old age. He looked to be in his twenties or so. He had awkwardly long black fingernail and his eyes were unknown to me because they were covered by his thick, gray bangs. It was surprising he could even see.

I tried to call out to the new, mysterious man, but it was muffled by Claude's hand. So I decided to try a different tactic. I felt light-headed and my mind was not able to focus on one thing for more than ten second, so I followed my instincts.
I bit into Claude's hand then turned my head sharply to the side, tearing off some flesh. He pulled away, frowning, growling, and looking to be on the brink of screaming from the pain. I took the opportunity and roughly pushed him off as I got to my feet. I quickly started spinning on my heel, desperately searching for Blaze and keeping an eye on Claude at the same time. A task that is easier said than done.

I felt something sharp dig into my arm. I howled in pain and looked to see long, black nails that resembled talons. I struggled to get away. I turned more to see the albino, Blaze. My eyes widened in pain and fear of what she would do to me while I am in her grasp. In all honesty, she looked very pissed. Her eyes were the demonic fuchsia instead of their regular blood red.

I looked down at my arm that her nails were embedded in. It felt like she had different, much darker aura around her. At least, darker than usual.

I turned to the long haired man. "Hey! You in the black robes! Mind helping?"

"I will," he answered. He then wrapped his arms around himself and started shaking and wiggling. "If you give me the gift of laughter!"

I sweat dropped. Blaze's grip tightened which caused to yelp and try to pull away. That only made her tighten her grip until she was hitting bone. 'She's getting angrier. She might be on the verge of her true form. Well, I can counter it with my own true form! Maybe I can also use this mysterious man to my advantage as well. Time to get started!'

"Hey! Strange man!" I yelled to him. He looked up at me with a wide, crazy grin on his face. "What's your name?"

He laughed a little. "People call me Undertaker, dear."

'I've never been too good at jokes, but, let's give it a shot!' "What did the acorn say to the squirrel?"

"I don't know."

"You're nuts!" Silence. "Aw, come on, Undertaker! I've never told jokes for something like this before! And I have a crazy girl's nails in my arm! Just help me!"

Blaze growled "Talons" before jumping back and charging forward, her long hair even longer than before with light flickers of black flames around her form. Perched on her back was a set of feathered wings that were colored black, white, and gray. She covered the long distance quickly with her demonic speed and wings, her fist poised to punch. I put my hands up in a defensive manner as her fist connected with my crossed arms, forcing me off the ground and over tombstones until I hit a tree with a scream. She charged forward again.

"I don't think so!" A younger sounding voice called out. A flash of metal shone in the moonlight before connecting with Blaze's wings, knocking her out of the air as she let out a yelp. A blond boy jumped down from a nearby tree, throwing more daggers at the albino as he did so.

"Dagger!" I called out to him, smiling.

He threw more daggers at Claude, who was trying to stop the bleeding in his hand, to immobilize him, at least temporarily.

He did the same with Blaze before turning to me, grinning. "Nice to see you, Miss Y/n!" he replied. His bright grin promptly faded. "And I'm sorry."

I gazed at him, confused, as I was struck by something hard in the back of the head from behind. I crumpled weakly to the ground before my vision disappeared into a black abyss.

Undertaker's p.o.v
"I know it sounds mean, but I did say I would only help her if she could make me laugh. And truthfully, that joke was kind of boring. I was just keeping my word." I spoke to myself as I looked at the moon, letting out a small, single laugh. "Ah, she looks like a strong girl. It seems it would take a lot to kill her. I'm sure she'll end up fine."
