Having recovered his memory, Stephan decided to head away from the direction of Austin and went further East

He knew Natalie and her Mandingo lovers were in Austin and he didn't want to see them anymore, no matter how that he still loved Natalie and how much it hurt him to not have her by his side

Maybe Natalie didn't know that he was attacked by Luke and presumably killed. Maybe she missed him. But then again, maybe they planned it together to put him out

Regardless, he couldn't go back to her. After all, her life was linked to the Mandingos and she could not leave them

They weren't ever leaving her anyway, that much was clear.

It was best he forgets her, even though he spent so much time trying to get back to Earth just to reunite with her

He also knew Elena was there too. He didn't really know how he felt about Elena. Sex with her was passionate and crazy, but she did so after enslaving his mind and using him as her toy

She also shot him in the head, effectively killing him if he was mortal

He knew that he should hate her and want to kill her. But somehow, he didn't feel like he had it in him to kill her

He easily killed monsters of all sorts. But with Elena, he somehow felt some sort of fondness

Maybe this was some sort of Stolkholm Syndrome, and best he leave as he didn't know how he would react towards her

Because he knew this indecision was bad for him, he decided he didn't want to see her anymore too

Then he looked at Eve, who held his hand innocently, with only gazes of love.... or lust at him

Reading her mind, he knew she was only "born" in the lab just before the multiple invasions

She really didn't have any experience living as a human

No doubt, she felt a strong biological need to breed, but otherwise she acted as his perfect partner

Walking through the wilderness of Alabama, they hunted together and ate together, eating the local animals they found like cougars 

He had instructed her not to completely transform to her alien self, and thus fought in her human form

She still had her supernatural strength in this form, and her regenerating ability. She also could extend tentacles from her nipples and her fingertips at will. 

They walked through the outback and suddenly encountered a strange looking race of monsters, each 8 feet or so tall and covered by some sort of chitinous armor

They had average length legs, but their arms were extra long, being able to reach forwards and touch the ground from standing upright. They were also extremely ugly where they could open their face up and appeared to be blind as they didn't seem to have eyes!

The monsters were eating what looked like a group of large hairy humanoids, each covered in hair like monkeys and were at least 7 feet tall each. There was even a white haired one among the dead

"Are those bigfoot? In a group are they called Bigfeet?" Stephan wondered out loud

"Which one?" Eve asked, seeing that the hairy ones had big feet, but he even larger uglier ones had even bigger feet

As if attracted to their voices, the monsters rushed towards the direction of Stephan and Eve

"Nevermind. Lets get dinner" Stephan said as both of them attacked

Eve engaged with one, using her natural superhuman strength while Stephan attacked the other 3 creatures 

Eve was powerful, but only when compared to a human and would probably match a whole battalion of human soldiers. Compared to these other alien creatures, for example these blind monsters, or a Xenomorph, Youtja or White Spike, she was comparable only to a single one of them. Win or lose it would depend on her strategy and fighting experience

She would be a disaster to a single city, and a whole group of her or any of the others would exterminate the inhabitants of a city. But she was way weaker than a Queen Xenomorph or White Spike

Eve was having a hard time against her alien, as her tentacles were ineffective against it's armored body. But no matter how much the creature battered and attacked her, she always seemed to recover without difficulty

By now, Stephan had beheaded a blind monster, ripped apart the second and was playfully sharpening his claws on the third

Their armor did indeed lower the damage done by Stephan's claws, but the sheer power from his blows crushed and crumbled their armor as his claws eventually pierced through

He turned to help Eve only to find she had already defeated her foe, but she was badly injured and had to transform into her alien form which looked like a reptilian armored version of herself

She was also regenerating quickly, as her left arm was broken off

"Are you ok?" Stephan asked

"Yes. It just hurts a bit" she said

They rested for the night in the forest, with plenty of food from the carcasses of these alien creatures and dead bigfoot creatures

They made love under the moonlight and were interrupted by even more blind alien monsters

Being interrupted during sex was a major irritation for Eve, causing her to fight even more savagely at night, but she still had a difficult time with these creatures

Stephan on the other hand treated them like a late night snack 

--

They arrived at Atlanta and found that the city was still inhabited with humans!

They initially encountered a few humans sneaking past these blind monsters, while moving towards the nearby abandoned supermarket to gather food. They consisted of a man, two women and a teenage girl, no older than 15

They kept extremely silent, but the teenager accidentally tripped and yelped,  accidentally attracting the monsters who immediately attacked!

Stephan saw that they were about to be slaughtered and roared such a loud roar, it echoed through the street, causing the creatures to turn their attention towards him and his pretty blonde lover

The human group were grateful and started fleeing, fully expecting Stephan to flee as well, after rescuing them with his yell

But instead, he and Eve stood his ground as up to 20 of the creatures attacked them

The humans looked back with regret that their saviors were killed but had no choice by to run for their lives

As they returned to the subway station, the group was disappointed that they returned empty handed

A male, wearing an eyepatch looked at them and approached

"What happened, Nathan?" he asked in a whisper

"Sorry Logan. Cammie accidentally attracted the Death Angels. But we were rescued by this pair" Nathan replied

"So, did they manage to get away safely?" Logan asked

"No.... no they just stood still, accepting their fate" Nathan said

"Fuck" Logan cursed

The city was actually overrun with these blind monsters, but there were enclaves of humans living in small communities, living in sewers or subway stations, using sign language to remain as silent as possible

Stephan and Eve instead lived luxuriously, moving around from the Waldorf Astoria, Hilton Atlanta, Atlanta Marriott Marquis, Hyatt Regency and Courtyard by Marriott Atlanta Buckhead, moving one to the other as they had sex and battled the blind creatures at, ruining each hotel

In the daytime, they went hunting for food, training Eve to fight more efficiently and not get injured so much

Several days later, a group consisting of Logan, Nathan and a few other survivors ventured out after starving for days

They walked cautiously, hiding from the Death Angels, but after a while realizing that there wasn't a single monster left!

The luxury hotels downtown all seemed to be heavily damaged, but the rest of the city looked fine and free of aliens

They took the food they were looking for at the supermarkets and fled back to their shelter

But after a few days, they met up with other survivors from other bunkers, all surprised and glad that the alien monsters were gone!

Two weeks later, a military team consisting of the Resistance rolled into town in tanks

The survivors greeted them as they celebrated their liberation

Their leader Jura met the leaders of the survivors here tried to figure out what had happened. 

The survivors told them about the Death Angels and how they suddenly disappeared without a clue

Elena, Lemar and a few others went to the traffic department in city hall to view the CCTV, in hopes of finding out what had gone on

Fortunately, the cameras were still working on standby power and they started looking through footage of the past few days

Elena looked in shock as a familiar handsome man and a beautiful blonde woman fought Death Angel after Death Angel, hunting them as prey as they both savagely annihilated the aliens

"Oh my God! Stephan?" a voice behind Elena said

Elena looked behind as Natalie rushed to the screen, caressing the screen in tears

"You... you know him?" Elena asked

"He... he's my husband!" Natalie said
