Brimstone - Xerx
Genre : Action / Horror
Executive Producer: David S. Goyer
Writer : Mark Newton
Cast: Holland Roden, Stephen McHattie, Manu Bennett, Lydia Hearst, Meghan Ory, Daniel Cudmore and Oscar Jaenada


In Morton, Mississippi, Jorge Wolfe (Oscar Jaenada) finally has assembled the body Beliar the demon. He tells Kagan (Manu Bennett) that he needs fresh blood to awaken the great beast Beliar. Kagan sends him children Ephemera (Lydia Hearst), Ferril (Meghan Ory) and Xerx (Daniel Cudmore) out to bring back humans to freshly slaughter. Xerx angrily says that if Wolfe had assembled Beliar's body sooner they could have used the people of Morton. Kagan reminds Xerx that hindsight is 20/20, and tells his children to leave at once and not to come back without humans to bleed out.

Rayne (Holland Roden) wakes up to find Tremaine (Stephen McHattie) coughing up blood. She asks him if he's alright. At first he tries to pass it off as just a bad cough, but soon admits that he has lung cancer. Rayne asks him how long he's known, and he tells her several years. Rayne asks how much longer he has left. Tremaine replies that his doctor expected him to die years earlier, but he's accepted it long ago. He tells her that he never wanted to outlive his wife and kids, but here he is now. Rayne is taken aback by Tremaine's confession. They begin moving again down the road to the next town.

Xerx heads into a town and begins feeding the locals his blood in order to control them. The town soon is completely under Xerx's control. He starts ordering them to head toward Morton so that their blood may help awaken Beliar. Rayne and Tremaine happen upon the town and see Xerx ordering the townspeople into a line out of town. Tremaine tells Rayne that if they can kill Xerx, they will end his control over the people. Rayne asks what Tremaine thinks is going on, and Tremaine says he hopes his worst fears haven't come true and leaves it at that.

Rayne, not exactly being a strategist, comes out of hiding and confront Xerx. Xerx is surprised to see her, and is surprised to discover that his half-sister that everyone is worried about is so slight in frame. He towers over he. She pulls out her twin blades. Xerx laughs in her face. He then turns his arms into blades made of bone. Then begin fighting through the town square in the darkness of night. Meanwhile, Tremaine sets up a barricade to block the townspeople from heading towards Morton, Mississippi.

Xerx and Rayne continue to fight it out. Xerx has the upper hand until the sun slowly starts to rise. As the sky slowly lights up, Xerx slowly begins losing strength. Rayne manages to slice off one of Xerx's arm blades with her twin blades. Xerx screams in agony as black blood streams out of his cut off limb. Rayne then finishes Xerx off by decapitating him as the sun rises. The townspeople wake back up from Xerx's control with no memory of what has happened. They're confused, but they continue to go about their business as if nothing has happened.

Rayne and Tremaine decide that they need to start making their way back to Morton, Mississippi. Tremaine tells Rayne that if Kagan's children are controlling that number of people and having them walk towards Morton that can only mean one thing: Kagan and Wolfe have managed to assemble all of the pieces of the great demon Beliar. Tremaine announces that they have to figure out how to stop them by the time of the next full moon so that they can use Severin as part of their plan, if Severin is still alive.
