Martin Brennan, Bethany Anne's boss from "before", and a surrogate father image, found dead, He was found before 2 AM, tortured, with a chunk gone out of his neck, killed by a vampire. He had a potential line on who Bethany Anne had become, and had perhaps been killed for that information. Bethany Anne freaked out, plans to kill whoever responsible. Bethany Anne, TQB, Dan, Peter and Ecaterina fly to DC, go to Brennan's office. Bethany Anne can smell vampire in the area. Bethany Anne finds that Adrien, a Forsaken, had killed Brennan. Finds him, gives him bad nanocytes in blood, so he will die slowly. he tells her that Clarita (his Mother who had turned him) had assigned the task to him, so Bethany Anne goes after Clarita, in Costa Rica. Bethany Anne gives Adrian a task, to go back to her and inform her that she had signed her death certificate by sending him, and that iof her whole family as well, and that if there are any vampires left in Central America in six months, they will also die. She gave him a ticket to Mexico city, money and allowed him to leave. Adrian did go to Mexico City (feeling poorly) and then to Costa Rica to Clarita's home (ears falling off, no hair). He gave her the message, and blew himself up in front of her.
When Bethany Anne found that the Sheikh was a sexual sadist, she decided to kill him. Bobcat flew Shelly to within parachute distance of the Polarus, Bethany Anne 'chuted out, and went the last short distance through Etheric transfer. She would incapacitate the crew (sleeping gas), and talk to the Sheikh alone. She did so, and after all crew were disabled, Shelly landed TQB. John found Bethany Anne in the Sheikh's cabin , crying, with a lead female in her arms. She had found the Sheikh sleeping (gas), with Natalia Berona on the bed, almost dead. Bethany Anne had tried to save her (blood given), and was unable to do so. She was now crying uncontrollably. John snapped her out of it, carrying both the sleeping Sheikh and the body to the upper deck. Bethany Anne took the sheikh to the after-deck, tortured him for an hour before killing him (cutting off his head, with a pic of same) and dumping him overboard. A solemn ceremony was conducted for Natalie as well, offering her proper respect throughout. A trial was then conducted by Bethany Anne and TQB, sentencing the 10 Security Guards to death for not protecting the innocent, and most of the crew as well, keeping just enough to run the ships for her (10), wiping their minds so that they thought she was the new owner. It was a solemn occasion that cemented the role of the Queen Bitch’s Guard. They had a sacred trust that encompassed the protection of Bethany Anne and the protection of the innocent.As a new crew was now needed for both the Polarus and the Sea Axe, Dan, Frank and Ecaterina were employed in finding therm for her.
Planned to get Were teams, so trained humans to utmost so they would not be wanting in comparison. Made 3-car garage of new home into work-out gym. AC/DC song Big Balls. AC/DC became official team band. Team acquires nicknames, P1-Scott, P3-Darryl, P2-Eric. Became “pussies because they couldn’t draw Bethany Anne’s blood the right way. Ecaterina did it for Frank’s computers, etc.
Killian, sniper, joins team (6 month probation). Eventually learns to keep his mouth shut.
