Chapter 1:

AN: I'm going to try and wrap elements from the movie around my story making it an AU version I guess. Hope you like it.

I own nothing

The air was wet and heavy but the sight in front of us was unbelievable it made me forget we'd been walking for days in the cold and wet English weather. Something other than mountains and ruins a castle, people. It had been weeks since we've seen anyone, anyone that didn't breathe fire at least. I smiled to myself then I looked to my left, we found others. My sisters and I were looking at a newfound hope that we would make it just one more day. Looking at the castle ahead made me miss home.

"Look" Ryan said pointing to the northern corner of the establishment.

There were trucks moving up the hill.

"Common, here Sophie get on my back" I said kneeling down, we had to run and I knew Sophie wouldn't be able to keep up and Ryan had been carrying her for the last few hours.

We jogged up the hill to the gates towards the trucks. "Hey Quinn" we heard from the gates

The drivers of the trucks got out, dressed in some sort of fire resistant suit. I put Sophie down even as she still clung to my body. "Now where did you all come from" one asked. His eyebrows were raised as he smiles. He looked surprised to see us, but had a welcoming personality.

"We had been walking for days, we came from the coast, hiding near the water" Ryan explained.

I looked at her nodding in agreement, the fellow asking the question wore a smile on his face as he stared at Ryan. If he was in charge, we'd have no problem getting in I thought. Ryan was beautiful, even if it had been a year since she'd worn a lick of makeup or washed her hair. Luxuries like that didn't exist anymore, I stood looking at the other man standing beside him, he stood deep in thought as he examined the three of us.

"I'm Creedy, this is Quinn" Creedy took Quinn deep out of thought as he gave a punch to his arm.

Ryan nodded "I'm Ryan, my sisters Sophie and Eleanor" she smiled.

I looked away; Ryan obviously liked the attention from Creedy. When things got hard and it felt like we weren't going to make it Ryan was there to put a smile on my face and instill hope for another day back in me. I smiled looking back up.

Quinn was staring at me quiet. The look in his eye almost made me lose my breath. They were almost covered by his shaggy brown hair, but when he looked hard at someone they were there. I tried to look away as he stared intensely at me. I tried to smile ignoring the awkwardness. What was the look for?

"We thought we were alone" I finally said trying to break the uncomfortable silence, Ryan and Creedy seemed to have started their own conversation and we hadn't been invited in yet. I ran my hand down Sophie's head trying to comfort her.

He nodded "You're lucky you made it through without seeing anything" he answered. He continued to look at me, his face began to soften and ease out.

A bird cried out as we looked up. There it was, above us.

I looked down at Sophie as Quinn grabbed her "Common" he yelled.

My legs felt like they were dead weight as I tried to move. I looked up as Quinn turned, his eyes widened I couldn't look back I knew it was behind me, trying to move my legs quicker I tripped landing on my stomach, the trucks beside me lit up and a scorching pain ran up my back.

Then there was Darkness.
