12 Bloodlines

As Stefan finished shooting at the practice dummies, he smiled with a satisfied face and the black gun turned into black smoke that got back to body. "Looks like I will have to learn how to shoot properly, and the melee lessons... Well, I will look for that later..., it's time for the fusion." thought Stefan as he apparated inside the basement of Borgin and Burkes.

"You had come at the perfect time" said Borgin while smiling.

"Nice to see you Borgin... I have really found out useful those books... Maybe you will have a way to find more... What do you say?" said Stefan while smiling at him with an innocent face of a 9 years old child.

"Maybe I could find them... But let's first finish this business, everything is ready, you will find everything you need behind that door. I prepared a special room for you, to not get disturbed" said Borgin with a nasty smile that showed his putrefact teeth.

"Ok, I will enter but alone Borgin... You should know techniques about the fusion are secret... But do not worry I will not apparate with all the materials after going behind that room, I really like doing business with you" said Stefan while looking how Borgin wanted to enter with him to the room.

"I will trust in you then..." said Borgin while looking serious.

The basement was suddenly opened and a bald man with the same gross smile as Borgin enter, and looked at the little child with silver hair and silver eyes and said "I'm Burke" as he bowed to Stefan while looking attentively at him looking for some kind of curse sign or possession.

Stefan smiled at the man. "I've heard about you... Nice to meet you" said Stefan as he looked at him for a moment and walked into the room.

"I've told you, he is not possessed or under the Imperius curse... Sigh...you better not annoy him Burke" said Borgin while looking at the door the kid entered a few moments ago.

"Hmmph" snorted Burke, he then walked out of the basement.

Inside the room Stefan was looking at the 'materials' they had left there... Two eggs one bigger and another one small, the small one was red, and the big one blue. At the corner of a room was a cage with what it looks to be 100 homeless people inside laying down on the floor and at the center of the room a black altar.

"Huh let me see what do we have here..." said Stefan as his eyes turned black with silver iris and look into the eggs, the blue one was a two bloodline egg that had a river serpent and the red one was a three bloodline egg that had a red salamander.

After checking the eggs, he walked to the black altar at the center of the room and started checking it, at the center of the altar were symbols made of blood, cruces all over the board and a big one at center that had letters on it that spelled 'La Muerte'

"Hahahaha, they're using reapers to fusion the souls... They are somehow manipulating the reaper like in Supernatural where an old lady used the reaper with a bonding spell to have the reaper in control and to take the life of a healthy person and give that life to a sick person... But if they had total control of the reaper, all the fusions would be a success... I mean what's better than having a reaper taking a soul and granting it to another body or in this case a fetus or egg."

As Stefan was pondering the question, he heard a scream coming from the homeless people inside cages.

"Let us out please" said an old man.

"yeah let us out please" said another homeless while shaking the cage.

As Stefan turned to look at the homeless people screaming, they all turned silent looking at the little kid with silver hair and silver eyes looking at them innocently.

"Kid please help us" said another homeless

"Yes please help us" said all the homeless people inside the cage, every one of them except one.

"He's with them..." said the homeless old man with one leg that wasn't begging to be released.

Everybody got stunned at hearing that.

"How do you know I'm with them?" said Stefan while lifting an eyebrow.

"I've been through this... And last time there was only one person here that did that...and looking at how you're the only person here, I assume you're going to be the executer this time" said the homeless old man with a terrified face.

"Huh, how did you survive...?" said Stefan with an inquisitive face.

"Sigh, I'm the last survivor of the last batch... Everybody got sacrificed to the eggs... and when I was about to be sacrificed the egg started beating as if it was woken" said the homeless man while looking at the eggs with a horrified face.

"So you saw all the process, I tell you what, tell me all the process with all the details you can, and maybe if what you tell me is useful I will let you go..." said Stefan with a smile on his face.

"You mean it? do you have the power to take me out of here alive?" said the homeless man as his eyes started to shine with hope.

"If what you tell me is useful..." said Stefan while smiling like a little 9-year-old child.

"Ok... Everything was the same as now... All of us woke up in a cage similar to this one, and then two people walked in one if I remember well his name was Borgin... And the other one I didn't heard his name but, that man Borgin treated the other man with a lot of respect... The man talked about some secrecy about the rituals and Borgin nodded his head as he headed out of the room... And that was when all start.. started... that nightmare..." said the homeless man while stuttering and fear on his face.

"Go on" said Stefan as he saw the man paralyzed.

"He was the devil... that man... use magic... and everybody in the cage couldn't move but we could see all the events unfolding... the terror of knowing how and when you're going to die... the wait is the worse..."

"Move on, I don't care about that" said Stefan irritated.

"Sorry... Sorry... The man used magic and chose one of us randomly and that person started to levitate beside that table with black cruxes and then he started chanting something in a strange language and then, he looked to the void with fear and respect." said the homeless man with fear on his eyes.

"Then the person started turning pale, second by second... Till the eyes of the victim took a white color, and die..." said the homeless man looking at Stefan with some hope.

Stefan started thinking about all the things the homeless man said and started pondering about it..."It's obvious, the mage chanted a ritual to bring the reaper but he couldn't control the reaper properly? Or why did he have to be so respectful to the reaper..., if they had a leash on the reaper there is no need to that, as it was showed in supernatural"

"The condition of the person doing the sacrifices, how did he look after the first sacrifice and after the other sacrifices, and anything else that you remember about him?" said Stefan while looking attentively to him.

"After the first sacrifice, the person had a paled face but only a little... And after all the sacrifices till the success, he was too paled and sweating a lot... But I remember after the egg woke up and started beating, the mage said something 'the soul portions are too little, and something about a rebound effect' and after that the mage, called for the person called Borgin, and they said, it was a success the two bloodline hybrid, and later the said I was going to another batch..."said the homeless man trying to remember something else... But he couldn't.

"Huh, 'the soul portions are too little' they can't order a reaper with all of his powers... So they use the reaper to take a little bit of soul from each sacrifice and transfer it to the egg till it wokes instead of ordering to just transfer a complete soul to the fetus or egg, so that's why they use a lot of people and why it's more difficult to make a 5 bloodline fusion it should no just use one complete soul but a lot of them and the difficult to pass little by little parts of souls to the egg is higher, obviously it would require a lot of control for the mage to order the reaper and a rebound is an expected thing to happen after the sacrifices... And the tax to the mage is high so if the egg doesn't wake up fastly, all the previous sacrifices would be in vain as the little parts of the soul would vanish." thought Stefan with a smile on his face.

"Ok, your information was satisfactory, now let's begin" as he opened the cage and binded all the homeless people to the ground to not move, and chose a random homeless man.

"Avada Kedavra" said Stefan as he pointed with his index finger at a homeless man, a black light came out of his finger and hit at the chest of the homeless man as he dropped dead.

Stefan walked to the dead body of the homeless man and imbued his right hand in darkness as he introduced his hand in the chest of the man to take his soul, as he took it, he walked to one of the eggs the one with two bloodlines and simply pushed it into the egg... after a minute a sound could be heard coming from the red egg, a beating...like the one of a heart.

Dum Dum Dum Dum

"Hahahaha it's so easy, at least for me..." thought Stefan with big smile on his face.

Dum Dum Dum....Du...

Stefan noticed the beatings of the egg started to fade away, so he pointed his index to another man in the cage and rapidly said: "Avada Kedavra" and a dark light came out of his hand and hit the man on the head and died. Stefan walked quickly to the man and imbued his hand in darkness as he pushed his hand inside the chest of the man and took a soul with a lot of blemishes on it, he walked rapidly to the egg and pushed the soul into it.

Du...m.....Du...m...Du.m.Dum Dum Dum

The beatings of the egg started to sound clearly and he stayed alert paying attention to the beatings of the egg in case he needed another soul quickly and started paying attention to the egg to see if a change present to the egg.

The sound of the beating of egg started weakening but it was constant. Stefan imbued his eyes in darkness to see the insides of the egg and saw the serpent and the beating of his heart clearly.

"So my speculation was wrong... they have to gather two souls inside the egg to make the fusion work with a two bloodline hybrid... So what will happen to the three bloodline egg, how many souls will it need?" thought Stefan as he turned his head to look at the homeless people.

"Let's prepare the souls then..." as he thought that, he took out the homeless man with one leg out of the cage, stunned him, and then he lifted both of his hands and a little of smoke came out of his body and turned into two guns and he started shooting at the homeless people.

Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang

"Ok, this should be enough..." said Stefan as he walked next to the corpses while imbuing his hands in darkness and started taking their souls out and kept them in his chest by just pushing the souls inside of him. "Ok lets, do this..." said Stefan as he walked in front of the three bloodline egg, as he took one of the souls inside of his chest and then proceed to pushed it inside of the egg as he paid attention to it.

Dum Dum Dum

A beating started sounding from the egg but its beatings were louder than the ones of the two bloodline egg, and suddenly the beating started to fade away... as Stefan saw that proceed to take out another soul from his chest, and again pushed it inside of the egg, the beating of the egg started sounding again louder and louder... and the same thing happened another time the beating started to fade away and Stefan proceed to do the same actions, this happened 9 times...the last soul the egg consume, make the egg started shining and the color of the egg passed to be 2/3 red and 1/3 white. "Huh interesting... I guess the fusion of the three bloodlines provoked the change of the color in the egg... what changes had happened to the fetus..." Thought Stefan as he imbued his eyes in darkness and saw how the Salamander, now had 6 legs instead of 4... "Huh... the pyshical changes can be noticed with my eyes... but the powers the creature will have I have no way to figure it out...maybe If I knew from which creatures they took the bloodlines to create the egg"

"Today it was a fruitful day" said Stefan with a big smile on his face, as he turned his face to look at the homeless people who are still breathing but are crying or are paralyzed just laying on the floor looking at the emptiness.

"I'll let them live but I have to erase their memories about these events..." thought Stefan as his eyes turned black with silver iris, and a black fog started to come out of his body and covered all the people inside the cage, and he said "Obliviate" while thinking which memories he wanted to erase, and then the black fog retracted inside of him and saw all the homeless people laid down on the ground with calm faces.

Stefan woke up the homeless man with only one leg, and said to him. "I'm going to send you away to the place where you came from... or I will give you one chance to serve me said Stefan while turning his eyes black with silver iris.

The homeless man woke up and heard the little child telling him he was sending him away to the place he comes from... or to serve him. As he saw the black eyes with silver iris, he was afraid but thought "Maybe this is an opportunity to leave the slums..." as he thought that his eyes had a spark of resolution on them and said. "I will serve you"

"Ok, the best decision you have made in your life" said Stefan as he snapped his fingers.

The man felt something different about his body, he felt his leg but he lost it in an accident too many years ago, the man turned his head to look where it supposed to be empty space, but saw a new leg... his leg that he lost years ago... and started crying as he kneeled on the floor and said "Master, thank you"

"No problem, we will talk later about this, just stay quiet and follow me." said Stefan as he levitated the two eggs, and walked out of the room.
