Retreat and rethink

"I think we need to come up with something else, like a distraction that Heath wouldn't even suspect." Scarlett rushed to say.

"let's try my idea. How about, I pretend I don't want to fight him anymore? kind of like a stab in the back to you guys. I think that could work. He would probably think I've come to my senses, Kind of in the middle of a fight? You know he will come here and start a fight, so maybe, halfway through the fight, I could try that." Jacklyn explained,

"Yeah, I like that. You could feel uneasy about killing your father, so we all stop and you join his side. I mean not literally but, at least he would not expect it." Scarlett added.

"Jacklyn, why would you risk yourself like that? What if he killed you right there? He won't fall it." Ash said.

"Ash, I think all ideas are worth trying at this point. Do you have an idea? " Scarlett asked,

Ash shook his head and grunted while Jacklyn held back her laugh.

"Thought so, so let's try Jacklyn idea at least," Scarlett said.

There was a sudden rustle of leaves from behind them. It wasn't the wind. Scarlett shushed them all and proceeded to walk over to where the rustling came from.

"Scarlett?" Jacklyn whispered.

Scarlett shook her head and signed them to stay put. There was more rustling, followed by a grunting noise. Scarlett knew that voice better than anyone else, She shot backwards and pushed Ash and Jacklyn out the way.

"God damn it, Why are there so many trees, bushes and mud." The voice snapped.

The voice emerged out behind the trees and of course, it was none other than Heath. Ash looked at Jacklyn and Jacklyn to Scarlett. She nodded as a sign this was it, to go ahead with the idea.

"Heath" Scarlett said angrily

"Well, well, well, seems I have finally found you. How long did you think you could hide from me?" Heath questioned.

"This was plenty long enough, This time we plan on finishing you off. Those wounds seem pretty serious, you should surrender now" Scarlett cocked,

"Me? Surrender? never. You must think I'm some coward" Heath snapped back.

Heath placed a hand gently on his wounds left by Scarlett, Ash and Jacklyn. He acted like they didn't phase him at all like they didn't hurt. Heath glared directly at Ash and Jacklyn before turning his attention back to Scarlett, who had already drawn her sword. Heath followed directly afterwards.

"I going to finish you before you land another attack on me. No one ever attacks me, nor hurts me. You'll all pay" Heath said with rage in his eyes.

"Bring it on," Ash said.

Heath ran at Scarlett and went straight for her head. She slightly moved and watch Heath go running headfirst into the tree behind them.

"Gonna need better reflexes and aim than that" She smirked.

Heath pulled his sword out of the tree and turned to face Scarlett, who had disappeared. He turned to face Ash and Jacklyn, but Scarlett wasn't there. He felt something sharp slice across his back and turned around to see Scarlett with her sword dripping with blood.

"Never let your guard down. You once told me, a hunter never lets their guard down." Scarlett said licking the blood off her sword.

Heath went right for Scarlett's chest where her previous wounds were. He sliced her right up her chest, through her wound and her stitches. She let out a scream of pain before falling to the ground, bleeding everywhere. Ash ran over to Scarlett to aid her.

"Trying to be a hero? are we?" Heath mocked.

"Leave her alone. You've had your fun with her." Ash snapped, before helping Scarlett up.

Heath raised his sword and was about to finish Scarlett off when Ash had dropped Scarlett, pulled his gun out, counteracted his sword, pushed him back and shot him. Ash threw himself on top of Heath, digging his claws into his chest, Digging his knife into Heath's chest and twisting it before climbing off Heath, leaving the knife in him.

"That's what you get," Ash said turning his back.

"You fool. Never turn your back on an enemy" Heath cocked.

Heath got to his feet, pulled the knife out and threw it right into Ash's back causing him to drop to the floor like a fly. Heath pulled the knife out of Ash's back, turned him to his front and dug the knife into Ash's chest. Heath placed his boot onto Ash's neck, crushing it to the ground. As heath pushed harder, Ash gasped for air more.

"Guys enough! Please stop this," Jacklyn yelled from the other end of the fighting ground.

All their attention was drawn to Jacklyn. Who was stood there, head to the ground.

"What? You've been awfully quiet over there" Heath snapped.

"This doesn't feel right, all of this. This is wrong. I can't kill my own dad" Jacklyn said,

"Jacklyn? We're in this together" Scarlett said trying to claim her balance again.

Heath removed his boot from Ash and Ash gasped for air. Heath walked over to Jacklyn and stood face to face in front of her.

"You what?" Heath questioned.

"I can't do this, I don't want to do this. I can't kill my own father can I? this isn't right." Jacklyn said.

"Finally, You have come to your senses. I wondered how long it would take you. Now, help me take these down then. " Heath said as a smirk appeared on his face.

Heath and Jacklyn walked back over to Scarlett and Ash.

"Betrayal. How could you do that to us?" Ash lied.

"You try killing your own father, its not easy. I can't do that plus, I can't let you do that either" Jacklyn said looking directly at Scarlett who was completely emotionless.

They knew this was all a plan and a setup. They had to make it sound realistic, so they all played along. Heath was completely oblivious. They felt like they actually had a chance this time to take him down.

Scarlett gave a slight nod before attacking Heath.

"Jacklyn, you get that hybrid" Heath demanded.

"Do it, come on. Hit me, it's fine, make it look realistic." Ash said quietly.

Jacklyn threw a punch right into Ash's stomach followed by, her round-house kicking his side, causing him to fall to his knees. He looked up in a glare, and grabbed Jacklyn by the legs and slung her to the ground, hitting her head. Jacklyn grabbed a near rock and smashed it right into Ash's face, but he moved just in time. He grabbed her arm, armed with the rock and slowly bent it backwards until she dropped it. They were just kid fighting to buy Scarlett some time to take Heath down or give a sign for them all to step in for a piece.

On the other side of the "Fighting ground" Heath had slashed Scarlett across the arm and just caught her forehead causing it to drip blood, when the blood dripped to her mouth she just licked it up. Scarlett slammed her sword against Heath's making a loud screeching noise, then quickly removed it and aimed for his arm. She diced up Heath's arm until it was just hanging by shreds, she was so fast no one could predict her next move. Scarlett then quickly swung her leg around on the ground and tripped Heath up. She pinned him to the ground and grabbed a knife out of her pocket and slowly drug it down his torso, making him bleed out.

Heath began crying in pain as she cut further down. She stopped just above his belly button and watched him bleed. Heath picked up a tree branch and threw it right into her side. He pulled it out and again, into the other side. Heath saw an opening, so he kicked her off him and scurried to his feet. While Scarlett was on the floor pulling the wood out of her side, He walked over to her and kicked her right in the stomach making her fly backwards, hitting herself off the tree. Heath picked up his sword and dug it into her stomach.

Ash turned his attention to Scarlett and his eyes widened. From his angle, it looks like Heath had killed Scarlett.

"Scarlett!" he screamed as he ran over to her.

"I'm fine" Scarlett mumbled as she got to her feet

"Ash- stay back," Scarlett said as her eyes flashed red.

Ash backed up as Heath drew closer to them, but Scarlett stayed put. She wasn't going down this easily.

Scarlett had pounced onto Heath and dug her fangs into the side of his neck. Heath could feel her fangs digging deeper and deeper, but she didn't stop. She removed her fangs from his neck and spat his blood back out onto the ground

"You disgust me. Vampire" Heath yelled in rage, holding his neck.

Heath grabbed her arm and clean snapped it. All you could hear was the screaming of Scarlett. He then threw her off him and charged at her, sword out, ready to fight. Scarlett jumped out the way, wiping her mouth before she spun around with her sword out and slashed behind his knees and grabbed one of his legs and twisted it. You could hear the echo of breaking bones and Heath dropping to the floor.

"Payback," Scarlett said, as she snapped her arm back in.

He dropped his sword and decided to use blunt force now. There was no going back. He dug his fingers into her wounds on her stomach and chest. He opened them up even more. Heath grabbed one of her facial piercing and ripped it clean out throwing the flesh and piercing back at her, he then picked up a knife that was laying on the ground and slowly dug it into her. Scarlett could feel her body giving up, but her ego wasn't.

"Now, do I kill you? or do I watch you bleed out?" Heath said.

Scarlet pulled out the knife, got to her feet and tried for an attack, but missed. Instead, Heath spun around and attacked her. He rammed her to the nearby tree and pinned her against it, punching her. Scarlett tried to land an attack on him but she couldn't, she felt too weak. She bared her fangs once more and bit him, causing him to drop her and retreat.

"You-" He said getting furious.

Heath dragged Scarlett by the hair, threw her over his knee, making her bend like a flexible ruler. He threw her away like a doll, Scarlett landed face-first on the floor and started spitting blood out her mouth.

Honestly not too sure about this. ITs not as gore as I hoped. Hopefully, the next one will satisfy your Gorey and blood cravings ^^
