La Luna Sangre: Running from Vampires, episode 45
Everyone seemed to be enjoying the night at the Oasis Lounge. Drinks were overflowing, the soothing sound of music playing in the background provided an ambiance susceptible for conversations and mingling.
However, it did nothing to soothe Malia all throughout the night. She was on edge and more so because of the unwelcome attention she kept on receiving from a man named Serafin del Torre.
However, he presented a good camouflage on her mission to trail after Supremo. And it was successful at best because she found out that the Supremo plans to run as the President of the Philippines and was using the social media platform, Youtopia to advance his plans.
Inconsequentially, Supremo got his suit stained by the lady who wanted to have his photo taken. The wine sloshed on him as she leaned over. He stood up and gently assured the lady that it was okay amidst her apologetic essays. He then excused himself to the comfort room.
Consequently, Tristan hid himself on men's comfort room and called Piolo. He later learned that the mission was aborted on the reason that they were the real target and not Serafin Del Torro. Initially, he couldn't believe his friend.
"Piolo, pakana nyo naman ba 'yan?"
"Why would I joke about something as serious as this?" Piolo returned just as seriously.
The water ran from the faucet indicated that someone was in the comfort room, Tristan ended the call and left the toilet room. He made a pretext of washing his hand. However his attention was caught by the tall man who was washing the stain on his suit.
"Sir, may sugat ata kayo." He commented.
The man saw what he was looking at and he smiled at him quite coldly, "don't worry. This isn't my blood. I just have a friend who liked to play with fire."
Tristan looked at the stains once more and did not say anything.
Meanwhile, Supremo's vampires were actively scanning the area for the possible signs of the vigilante group. But they found no one. After scanning the Oasis lounge, they agreed to look at the parking space inside the hotel.

Baristo was livid with anger as he threw Jake to the wall.
"Jake! Are you trying to kill yourself?" He shouted at him as he advanced towards him like a wolf. His eyes glaring at him as he snaked a hand on his neck and gripped hard.
"Pwes ako na lang ang papatay sa'yo!"
Jake did not defend himself against Baristo. He looked at him with tears on his eyes, "Tito Baristo, gusto ko lang makita si Mama!"
"Jake, naiintindihan kita. Pero hindi ka pwedeng padalosdalos. Ikaw ang susunod na Punong Bantay, ikaw ang mamumuno sa amin kaya hindi ka pwedeng mamatay. Ang hinihiling ko lang ay maging responsable ka sa mga desisyon mo."

Still trying to search for his group in vain, Tristan entered the dark parking area at the hotel and was immediately accosted by numerous vampires. He fought them but still recovering from his injuries, he was at a disadvantage. He started to run.
A vampire caught him and tackled him on the floor. Fortunately, Professor T. arrived and helped him vanquish the vampire.
Professor T. advanced on him like a tiger, he was so angry that he looked like he wanted to kill Tristan with his dagger. "What the hell are you doing?! Tayo ang target!"
Breathing hard, Tristan looked at professor with akin to desperation, "Prof. I just wanted to have them pay for what they did to my friends!"
Professor T. looked at him as if he couldn't decide on what to do about him or say anything. Then they felt a dark presence approaching.
They turned and saw a large number of vampire walking towards them. Professor T. pushed Tristan. "Leave."
Tristan moved towards him, "tutulungan kita, Prof-"
"Umalis ka na!" Professor roared.
Unwillingly, Tristan do as the professor bid. He ran.

Malia looked at the man before him unsmiling, she doesn't like the way he was looking at her like a china doll that he can't wait to get home. His hands kept on straying on her person, too.
Serafin Del Torro gripped Malia's hand and said suggestively, "I am going to make-"
She couldn't take it anymore and she kneed him. A chorus of gasp echoed around the room when Serafin Del Torro doubled over and almost knocked some goblet of wine arranged on the table next to them. Malia never looked back and ran.
Senator Paglinuan approached Del Torro and asked in concern, "what happened?"
"Nothing, Senator. Just another girl who wants to break my heart." He said almost jokingly.
The Senator looked at his executive secretary whom in turn looked at her assistant. Just in time, a young girl entered the room and loudly stated that she was Tony. And they were left with questions about the strange lady that posed as someone else.
⟲ Outside ⟳
Malia was running erratically for escape, she crossed the pave road in front of the hotel entrance and almost ran over my a moving car. Fortunately, the car stopped before it collided with her.
And her eyes rounded in disbelief when he saw who was the driver was. It was Tristan.
He was also looking at her with a kind of amazed disbelief. Then, Malia's senses returned and was spurned into action. She abruptly opened the door and stepped inside the vehicle.
Tristan looked at her as if he couldn't believed at what he saw.
