Mason flew back as the man hit him, Rubi bared her fangs and collided with the woman in mid-air. Mason and the man were fighting skin on skin, Rubi and the woman skill on skill.
Rubi and the woman looked like they were flying around the room attacking each other. Rubi's hands were flying fast ripping off pieces of the woman's skin, the woman was summoning flying orbs of power that would miss Rubi by millimeters. Mason fought the man with all the strength he could. Punches were thrown and he flew back a few times as did the man, Mason cocked his hand back and was about to punch him square in the face when a sudden scream distracted both the men. Rubi had the woman trapped in her arms and her head was bent down. The woman's screams were terrible, her face was becoming paler and her arms were losing momentum. Her arms slowly stopped and her eyes suddenly rolled up and closed. The woman, Rubi and Masons' mother was dead.
Rubi raised her head; blood stained her lips. She raised her hand and wiped her mouth clean of it. The man came out of his shock and charged at his daughter. He pinned her down to the ground and was striking her, she began to scream and tried clawing at his face. He maneuvered his knees to be on her elbows and continued hitting her. Mason came from behind the man, put his hands on his father's head and twisted it quickly to the side, and snapped his neck. The man fell forward; Mason had killed his father.
Mason pulled the man up and tossed aside; he looked down to see Rubi gasping, her chest was heaving rapidly. He lowered his arm and she grabbed it, he pulled her up and she wrapped her arms around his neck. She wasn't sobbing she was just holding him close; he put his arms around her waist and was kissing the top of her head. She breathed deeply taking in his scent, wondering what she would have ever done without him. She remembered when she almost lost him:
Flashback
Rubi and Mason were five years old, their dad had just built a new pool that was shallow on one end and only five feet deep on the other. He had just finished teaching them how to swim safely on the "deep" end, Rubi had a natural act of swimming, but Mason had a little difficulty.
"Wubi, I'm scarwed of the water, I don't wanna go in."
"But Mason, I wanna swim, I pwomise that we will be ok, we could stay on the not deep side if you want."
"Ok but only if you stay with me."
"I pwomise," Rubi said with a big smile.
So Rubi and Mason were playing in the side of the pool that was only two feet deep. Rubi longed to go to the other side of the pool, so she started to swim away. Mason looked at his sister wide-eyed and tear-filled.
"Wubi you pwomised!" he shouted to her.
"Mason it's not scawy twy it!"
Mason looked around and began kicking towards his sister; she was splashing and playing in the middle of the pool. Mason was doing quite fine until a bit of water went up his nose that was when he started to freak out. Soon he was kicking and moving his arms at the wrong times, when he started to sink a bit he completely lost it.
"Wubi help!" his throat began to fill with water, Rubi was kicking towards her brother.
"Mason, Mason," she yelled, when she got close enough, there was nothing much that she could do because he was beginning to drag her down with him. She began screaming and suddenly felt like she was being pulled away from the water. She was suddenly on the cement surrounding the pool, she screamed when she saw Mason go under, her father went quickly after his son and tried to save him. She waited a few seconds that felt like a lifetime. Her surroundings were eerily quiet; suddenly she saw her dad and Mason's limp form emerge from the water. When they both got on to the cement her father began to try and revive his son. He stopped a minute later and looked at Rubi with sad eyes. She ran to Mason and saw that he was still, she fell and held him close to her and started crying.
"I'm so sowy Mason," she cried. "Pwease wake up, pwease."
She felt a cold hand touch her face and saw Mason smile at her,
"I'm ok, Wubi, I pwomise"
End Flashback
Mason stood still and held his sister, and she smiled in his shirt.
