You walked up to him, Buttons running forward since he had remembered Minx well. The dog jumped up, his front paws scratching at Minx's stool. A high pitched whine left the dog while his tail wagged happily, making you smile slightly. Minx turned then picked the dog up easily, letting out a hearty laugh when the dog licked his face. "Minx." You said, catching his attention.

"Holy shit, what are you doing here?" He asked, setting Buttons down before leaving the bar. Before you could respond, he pulled you into a tight hug. Minx and you then walked outside the pub, getting out of the public eye so you could both talk.

"I'm doing well enough I suppose." You said.
"I thought you wanted to be alone."
"I did, just with everything going on..." You trailed off.

"Dracula's hoard." Minx said, his jaw clenching slightly. He had looked terrible since you last saw him, his green eyes now dull and a stubble speckling his face. His dark, ginger hair was tied back but still had looked greasy and what not. His whole demeanor seemed different from when you last saw him, making you frown. You had remembered him as your savor, the man that had taught you how to hide away and keep from mauling innocent people. He used to tell you that all mortals were needed in the world, no matter how much they thought that they didn't matter.

"I came to help people again, like we used to." You said, making him scowl.

"Why? They didn't do shit for us." Minx said.
"What do you mean?" You asked.
"They burned my daughter, called her a witch cause she sought certain ingredients for the meals she made me." Minx said, his gaze turning stern.

You blinked, unsure what to say to him. When he noticed your silence he kept going, breaking your heart even more. "My little girl, gone. The one I raised since her birth, the one I taught everything... She burned alive. After Dracula's hoard showed up, my wife couldn't take it anymore and she gave herself to the demons to be with our daughter once again..." Minx said, his voice wavering at points.

"Minx..." You trailed off, taking in all the information. You remembered his wife and daughter well since he had taken you in. His wife had treated you like a second daughter, cooking you meals and teaching you how to do mundane tasks like see and whatnot. Even though she was younger then you, his daughter had thought of you as an older sister. They were both mortal, Minx only becoming infected with lycanthropy after his daughter was born. Nevertheless, his reasoning was corrupted.

"They don't all need to die, it wasn't all of the world that sent your daughter to flames." You said, your gaze full of sympathy. Minx stayed silent, his gaze casted downwards. "Come with me, we can protect the people together." You said, grabbing his arm gently after then giving him a light squeeze. Minx was quick to push you away, obviously wanting no part in your idea. You stumbled slightly at his sudden movement, your gaze shocked.

"I wouldn't waste my time on them." He said then left, not wanting to continue the conversation any longer.

Since you didn't know what to do now, you wandered around the city. Night was to fall sooner then expected, so that meant the demons would enter the city again. While aimlessly walking around Gresit, you couldn't help but think about your traveling companion. You had wondered what Trevor got up to, being pulled out of your thoughts when you were suddenly knocked over. You extended your hands out to catch yourself before your head would hit the ground, only for the ground to never come. It was Trevor who ran into you, it was also Trevor who grabbed your arm then dragged you along before you reached the ground. Buttons barked at him then ran after you both once you called him to follow, seeing the angry mod of people chasing you now.

"What the hell did you do? It's only been one day!" You shouted to him, now running on your own beside him. You could of easily just broken off from him and have this not be your issue any longer but Trevor was the only other person you knew in the city, you felt obligated to help him.
