The field was still covered in dust and smoke from the previous explosion, but the energy in the air was palpable. Strax was tired, but his smile was still huge, reflecting the excitement of fighting the forces that challenged him. He knew it had been intense so far, but he hadn't yet seen everything his wives were capable of. They were adapting, improving and now, he knew, it was time for the vampires to enter the battle.
The moment the field was covered in dust, Daniela, Cassandra and Belatrix, the three powerful vampires, positioned themselves around him, emerging from different directions, their presences as silent as the night. They were waiting, watching Strax's every move. But the instant the dust cleared, they advanced in a coordinated attack.
