All for One. One for All. ~

 Dark-Hunters united. <3

Ash: "I’m going to leave Simi here for a bit. Will you guys watch her?"

Dev: "We’re going with you."

Ash:  "What are you talking about?"

Angel: "We know what you’re planning and we’re going with you."

He was completely stunned. He saw Valerius, Talon, Kyrian, Julian, Zarek, Sin, Vane, Kyl, Katra, Fang, Tabitha and Fury. 

Ash: "What’s going on?"

Kyrian: (give him a droll stare) "There’s not one of us here that you haven’t put your ass on the line for—most of us more than once.  Alexion told us what happened with Tory and we’re here to watch your back no matter what you have planned."

Talon:  (nodded) "Wulf is on his way, too. He’ll be here as soon as the plane lands and Otto can speed him over.  And Otto plans to stand with us too."

Valerius: (pulled Tabitha back) "Tabitha won’t be fighting. She’ll be going home very shortly, but she wanted to let you know she’s here in spirit."

Tabitha: (made a face) "But for the baby, I’d be busting balls for you, Ash. You know that."

Ash: "I know, Tabby."

Talon: "The other Dark-Hunters wanted to be here but since the sun hasn’t quite set yet, they couldn’t. However, once the blazing ball goes down, they’re here if we need them."

Ash was amazed by their willingness to bleed for him. It touched him on a level he hadn’t realized existed.

Ash: (looked at Kat) "I don’t want you in this fight."

Kat: "Dad---"

Ash: "No arguments. If Simi stays out of the fight, so do you."

Sin: (gave a low evil laugh) "I’m so glad he’s your father. And that for once we see eye to eye."

Kat:  "You are out of the bedroom tonight."

Sin: (he shrugged her ire off good-naturedly)

Zarek: "This still doesn’t mean I like you, Acheron. But I owe you for my wife and son. I would lay my life down for yours because without you, I wouldn’t have shit and I know it."

Ash: "I wasn’t expecting any of you to stand with me. We’re not fighting just the Daimons in this. We’re fighting Demons too."

Sin: (snorted) "I live to tear Demons apart. Bring the bastards on."

Zarek: (nodded) "Agreed… bring on the rain. The one thing I learned from Astrid is that life isn’t about finding shelter in a storm. It’s about learning to dance in the rain. I don’t care what I kill as long as I get bloody while doing it."

Talon: (smiled) "We’re here for you, T-Rex.  Just like you’ve always been here for us."

Ash: "Thank, guys. I’m not used to people standing at my back. I know you all have families who love you so if you want to leave---"

Vane: (scoffed) "We wouldn’t be here if we didn’t want to. You and Val fought to save my sister when no one else would have bothered. I haven’t forgotten it."

Wren: "And I haven’t forgotten what the Dark Hunters did for me and Maggie."

Fury: (nodded) "Yeah, we’re family. Psychotic, bizarre, and a hodgepodge of personalities that should probably never be blended, but here we are. Now let’s go kick some ass."

Damn. I so love VANE and CELT aka TALON. Haha. Val and Zarek too! I miss them! <3
