Army of the Damned

VOLUME 4 Chapter 5

After a good night's sleep, Paul didn't even want to wake up from his slumber but his blanket was slowly getting pulled by an energetic Bahamut.

"OKAY, OKAY!" He then stands up and looks at the wardrobe, taking his replica US Army Formal Greens but coloured Black and its symbols replaced with that of Eldwoods. After checking its medals and the ribbon rack, he quickly checks the Oxford shoes and leans in to see if it's still well shined. Confirming everything, he looks at the digital clock on top of the flat screen TV and sees that it is 5:45 in the Morning, a time which he wasn't used to waking up at all.

A knock then came to the door, he looked at the peephole and could see it was a Colonel.

"Ahhhh... fuck. I knew it."

He partially opens the door, hiding himself behind it.

"Good Morning Sir! Colonel Moore reports to you that the Mayor has requested your presence!"

"Yes Colonel, thank you. Anything else?"

"Yes sir! Hassan has also requested a meeting with you and the other generals!"

"Okay. Thank you Colonel."

"Sorry for the disturbance sir!" He makes a snappy salute and walks to the elevator in the hallway. Paul then looks back and stares at Bahamut.

"You woke me up because you knew he was coming didn't you?"

"Maybe."

"Grrrr..." Though his body was different and more fit, his soul was still the same and went back to bed. Sleeping nicely. After a few minutes, Alana was finished and noticed him who was in deep sleep. Knowing the time, she leans in close and whispers to him.

"If you don't wake up, I'll suck your blood and make you my servant." As if you have his life threatened, his eyes open wide, scanning the room and are shocked by the Countess' beautiful pretty face up close and personal.

"Okay, I'm awake." He looks down and around notices that the Vampire was wearing nothing, knowing the chance, he takes a long good look at her silky white skin, porcelain and clean and most of all her busty body. A true lady in all aspects.

"Oh, it stood up. Fufufuuu..."

"OHHHH OKAY, MA'AM. SPACE." In panic, he worms his way to the end of the bed and combat crawls to the bathroom where he proceeded to do his business. After 40 Minutes, he goes out of the bathroom in full Black Service uniform. Ready to go, he takes the room keys and picks up Bahamut and puts her in his jacket's inner pocket.

"Countess, ya ready?"

"Mhm."

They both go out and exit the Hotel, greeted by an M-ATV MRAP parked on the valet area with a Sergeant waiting for him. They board the mine resistant vehicle immediately and Paul instructs the soldier to first stop by an Apartment building. After dropping off the Vampire, the MRAP deviates from the direction of the City Hall and instead to the Docks.

"Sergeant, why are we going the other way?"

"While dropping off Madame, I received reports that Sir Hassan is awaiting your presence on Pier One."

"Ah, I see. What is it now I wonder."

Though traffic was relatively light, it still took twenty minutes to arrive at the Main Gates of the Dockyard where soldiers saluted the MRAP which then parked underneath a Crane where it was picking up something from a large cargo ship. Paul disembarks and immediately feels the chills of the cold Northern air of Dragovh.

"Should've bought my leather trench coat. Ugh..."

The Sergeant then led him to the staircase of the cargo ship, where he waited for a few minutes when Hassan with Trevor appeared, going down from the bridge and to the deck, talking to the ship's Captain. They say good bye and Hassan puts his hand on his shoulder.
