as my grandfather. As me."

Doe's face contorted. "I should have killed you all when I found you the first time. Made it easy."

"Yes," Joseph said. "You should have."

He put the gun against Doe's forehead and pul ed the trigger.

Joseph left Doe's body. He did not watch the man's soul leave. He ran back to help Six. There were four piles of ash on the ground. No doubt al of them had died with their heads ripped off. Vampire strength was obviously doing her some good.

The last vampire alive was the terror cell planner. Six had him pinned face down on the ground. She had somehow found time to locate a mini-recorder, which she held up to Joseph.

"How do you do that?" he asked admiringly, taking the device. Six smiled.

Joseph turned on the recorder and held it by the vampire's face. He watched as Six questioned him on tape, methodically breaking his fingers every time he refused to answer.

And when he still refused, she commenced ripping those fingers off his hand, one by one. The dismembered digits turned to ash.

"I hope this doesn't mean we're breaking up," he said. "Now that the danger is over."

"There is always danger," Six said. "And no, I am not going anywhere. Not without you."

"Good," Joseph said, the adrenaline finally seeping away making him shaky. He wrapped his arm around Six's shoulders and pulled her near.

"Happy New Year," he muttered, and kissed her hard.
