Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Dominque
One of the vampires walked up to Veronica. "Hey, are you here to jo-"
He didn't get a chance to say another word before Veronica took her hand and used it to slice his head off his body. A spray of blood following it into the air.
"Exterminate them. " Veronica said coldly.
She really didn't have to tell us twice in this instance.
We all moved out.

I ran up to a pair of vampires on the stairs and drew my blade. I then sliced their heads from their heads as soon as I reached them, neither having time to react.
Dominque held out her hand, and a second later a sword appeared in it. The sword then stared giving off a bright white glow, which caused the skin of the enemy vampires to being boiling and sizzling.
"Fuck, it burns!"
"Kill that little bitch!"
Several vampires swarmed Dominque, their fangs and claws prepped to attack her.
But Dominque just look at them in a disinterested manner. Taking her sword she slashed several times through the air, before appearing on the other side of the vampires who were attacking her, completely unharmed.
As soon as Dominque lowered her sword, multiple wounds opened up on the vampires that tried to attack her, all of them screaming in utter agony as they died from their wounds.
Normally this wouldn't be the case, but Dominque is holding one of her special blades in her hands for situations just like this.
It is a blade that emits UV rays on the same wavelength as the sun. Making it deadly to vampires, and several other species of supernatural beings associated with darkness.
I helped her come up with it by the way.
Once the opponents in front of her were finished Dominque looked at a vampire to her right and instantly charged at him, slashing him clean in two, right at his chest.
He never stood a chance.
The other in are group are also making short work of their opponents.
Meanwhile Veronica is watching all of this, taking out any would be escapees without an ounce of regret our restraint.
Nodding at this I continued working with the others, until eventually we killed all the vampires within the mansion.
Which only took us 20 minutes.
That's a new squad record.
After inspecting the mansion with her senses to make sure there were no more enmies, Veronica formed a spell circle on her left palm and lifted it up to her left ear. "Basteya all enemies have been dealt with.
We are all clear for rescue and extraction. " She told him through the communication circle.
"Understood. " Basteya said.
Once he did Veronica dispelled the communication circle and looked at all of us. "Move out and search for survivors.
And if they can't be saved, you know what to do. "
We all nodded at her words.
Everyone then spread out throughout the entire mansion.
I went with Dominque and two others to check one the major no-go areas in a situation like this.
The basement.
Someone has to do it after all.
Opening the basement door the four of us entered with no issue. We then headed straight down the stairs.
But when we got to the bottom it was pitch black.
However for us vampires that didn't pose a problem.
But in this case I wish it did.
Because as soon as we arrived at the bottom of the stairs we saw several cages spread out across the basement area.
All of which were filled with the naked bodies of dead humans. Every single one of them with puncture wounds in their necks, their bodies covered in feces and urine.
"Disgusting!" One of my squad mates cried.
I can't agree with him more.
I know supernatural creatures have always terrorized humans and used them for food in some cases, but this. .
. this is just plain evil.
Seeing crap like this actually makes me a bit ashamed to have supernatural blood in my veins.
"Let's head back up. " My other squad mate said.
"Wait, we need to check for survivors. " I said.
"Kufa, I don't thi-"
"Bump Bump*
Before Dominque could finished her sentence I heard it.
It was faint, but I am sure I heard a human heartbeat.
I didn't wait for the others to respond before I dashed in the direction I heard the heartbeat come from. In a few seconds I found myself at a cage on the far end of the basement.
Looking inside I found the source of the heartbeat.
It was a young girl.
She looks to be about thirteen years old. She has short purple hair and blue eyes.
She is also dressed in ragged clothing, with cuts and bruises all over her body.
Not only that, but she has wound deep in her gut that is leaking blood at this very moment.
Even so, as soon as I arrived in front of her cage she raised her head and looked directly at me. She then reached her hand out in my direction.
"H. .
. elp.
" She managed to say.
"No problem. " I said.
I then raised my right hand in front of the bar and conjured a few winds blades to slice them apart.
During my magical training I've discovered my talents lie in the obvious ice magic, but also wind magic.

As soon as I finished cutting the bars I moved them out of the way and went into the cage to retrieve the girl, picking her up in my arms.
Once I did she clutched onto my clothing.
"L...ive....I wa...nt..to...l....v...e" The girl wheezed out.
"Don't worry. You are going too.
" I told her.
I am not going to let this mission end with the survivor count being zero.
