X (A and B)

X

(A)

And outside Mandrake's pistols

skittled like the stars

bouncing off the moonlight

when they attacked us for that last time. 

I hit back with everything I could

muzzling their screams

with each head I cut off

like a wild barbarian

but him?

He stood there 

and carried on shooting them

like a Angel of Death

loving every moment.

And that terrified me more

than anything else. 

(B)

'They're teasing you, Mandrake'

The Man on the Black spat on the floor

the light in the lamp-posts

stretched to a fleece like strain

'I know' Mandrake cursed

'The bastards know I can't get them

from this range'

'Since when has that stopped you'

The Man in Black cut in

'True' Mandrake shot at them anyway

and watched one of them hit the ground

'You know me too well, Black'

'Not really' The Man in Black looked around

'We're trapped no matter what'

as hundreds more Vampires came into sight.
