[Something in him expected Xenk to come for him regardless, to let the kids die to their fate but instead the sword is thrown at the monstrous creature grasping him as Xenk runs into the cave. He watches the vampire do the exact opposite of what he expects.

He feels a swell of happiness as the creature drops Kirk, because it was so much more important to him that the kids were okay. That they would survive. And they would. In reality, only one of the group died that winter - Kirk kept them alive, even if every night he dreamed of this very situation, of being helpless to save the kids while he bleeds out watching them get slaughted. But tonight the kids would be safe, he wouldn't be useless because this time because he had Xenk with him.

Yet, this was still a nightmare, so by the time Xenk has finished fending off the wave of night terrors, Kirk is bleeding profusely at the feet of another night terror. Left to bleed out, staining the black and gold coat red with human blood, as it turns it's focus on Xenk once more.
