*Sigh*

"I don't think I can get away in this form anyway, so let's do what you say.": the man replies warily back after getting a hold of himself.

A few minutes later, three people are sitting inside a dirty pub near the haven.

Caliban keeps eyeing Sylar and the brown haired man, he doesn't understand who the man is, or why he is joining them.

Also, where the actual fuck has that big ass wolf monster gone?

"Hey, would you mind starting your introduction already? I hate being outside in the day, and because of you I will have to rent a room in this shithole.": Sylar says while leaning back even more into his seat, avoiding any and all light.

A long time ago in his less knowledgeable times, he once entered the sun's light, and unlike what he expected, he neither felt pain nor did he go up in flames.

His skin reflects light like a mirror or crystal, and as such he started always wearing gloves, clothes with high collars, and a cylinder hat, but even all that preparation is only helpful if you're cautious.

But today because of some stupid doggo he is basically forced to stay inside this shabby pub until evening, or he has to hope for the weather to at least not be sunny.

*Sigh*

"My name is Ethan Chandler, and I am an American soldier on the run.": Ethan finally answered after overcoming his inner fight.

"Okay?! Allow me to tell you Mr. Chandler that I do not believe a word you have just said, so how about we try this again.": Sylar says with a friendly smile.

He knows already who is sitting in front of him, and it is not some man named Chandler.

Sylar would not say he is the most knowledgeable man on earth, at least not yet, but he always made sure of being somewhat aware which families have said in political matters.

It might be just a lucky coincidence that Sylar has met this man's father some years ago when he was invited to a dance ball, and this Ethan is like a younger carbon copy of his father at that time.

He is not a hundred percent sure of him being part of the same family, it might be that he is a bastard of the man, but he would at least bluff, and see if the man would come clean.

"And who do you think I am if I am not Ethan Chandler?": Ethan asked curiously.

*Smirk*

"It is such a coincidence, but I am a fellow American, and I have had the pleasure of meeting a man named Jared Talbot, and we became good friends.": Sylar says, and he can hear the heart rate of Ethan spiking despite him keeping his poker face.

'What a beginner.': Sylar thinks to himself.

"You see Ethan, may I call you Ethan, I must say you are my friend's absolute replica. I assume you are either his son, or at least there must be some familial ties between the two of you. So why don't you try to trust me, and come clean.": Sylar says, simultaneously activating his lie manipulation to make his lie more believable, his Probability Manipulation to make it nearly impossible for him to doubt his lie, and finally, his Hypnotic Vision to make the man more talkative.

*Sigh*

"I am… I am indeed his son and my birth name is Ethan Lawrence Talbot, but me of that time died after committing a crime.": Ethan finally says after seemingly fighting with himself or rather fighting against Sylar's influence, but in the end he is unable to fight it off.

Caliban was sitting on the side watching the show and was paying attention to the two talking men, on the one side a Werewolf, and on the other side a Vampire, and finally himself a reanimated corpse.

None of them knowing that this little meeting is going to decide the fate of this world for the upcoming century.

Endless bloodbaths, wars, and prosperity all born out of the meeting between three people that shouldn't have met, but here they are sitting inside a shabby pub.

"What crime did you commit, Mr Chandler?": Sylar accepted the man's decision of wanting to cut ties with his families for whatever reason he has, but his ever present thirst for knowledge makes him one very annoying person to be around.

He has managed to get a handle on his obsessional behaviour, but he is unable to turn it off, and more often than not it shows in him poking his nose in other people's matters.

More than once he nearly died as a consequence of this, but he is one lucky son of a bitch, and manages to get out of most situation's with just a little slap on the hand.

"I don't want to thematize my personal life, unless you are willing to give me some answers as well.": Ethan replies, having pushed the ball into Sylar's court.

In any and all negotiations smart people rarely answer questions or show their hands, instead they demand a one-for-one, trying to gauge the limits.

And even though Ethan Chandler has decided to cut ties with his family, he has not forgotten all his father taught him.

"Oh, Ethan, it seems you are mistaken about the nature of this meeting.": Sylar says with a very evil smirk, before going on: "The only reason I have not killed you, yet, is that I am a very jovial and curious man, and you've managed to pick my curiosity. If you don't sate my curiosity, you are useless to me.".

"Mr Gray, I don't think it is necessary to resort to threats.": Caliban tried to mediate.

"Caliban, I have caught him in the act of ripping a mother into piece's, stopped him from killing the daughter too, and finally, I played long enough with his beast form risking my own life. I think I deserve some answers!": Sylar says less friendly a than before.

Sylar is extremely curious about Werewolves because they're the other extreme of the spectrum.

For some unknown reason, a Werewolf's claws, blood, and saliva are all extremely toxic to vampire's, and can kill a 'lesser' Vampire easily.

Sylar would love to research this occurrence in depth, but the problem is that most Werewolves are either killed before he can get his hands on them, live in packs, or are too savage.

Either way, it is nearly impossible for a vampire to get close to a Werewolf unless through some shitload of coincidences, and even then most Vampires are too dumb to really use the opportunity.

There are different forms of Werewolves, same as with Vampires, but the one similarity between them all is that they are susceptible to the full moon, just as the vampires are to the sun.

It could be that the solution to the Vampire's natural shortcoming of not being able to walk in the sun is hidden inside the Werewolves!!!

What better place to hide a secret, than inside your natural enemy, and Sylar has now the opportunity to meet an alive Werewolf, one that has no pack, and has not lost his sanity yet.

All he has to do now, is to find out what kind of Werewolf Ethan Chandler is.

If he is the right kind, then he might be able to solve his biggest problem, and evolve into a higher form of being.
