Jack's pov

I woke up later that night, hearing noise...voices.

"You killed all those men...and you don't feel a thing?" I know for sure that was Blade's voice, but I've never really heard him scream like this before. I had to get up even though my body was screaming in pain. I gently slid Lizzie down and replace a pillow in her grasp, she stirred but wrapped the pillow with both arms as if it were me. I walked up to the slightly cracked door, where Psyche was sitting on the couch and Blade was standing in front of her.

Psyche sighed,"I'm watching T.V. here." She said, strangely calm, she was even calm when Blade took the remote out of her hand and turn the T.V. off.

"I'm trying to have a conversation with you here-"

"Sounds more like yelling." Psyche rolled her eyes, "And no I don't feel a thing and niether should you, they did kidnapped me and repeatedly raped me. You're just upset because you couldn't kill them yourselves." I could basically see a vein popping on Blade's forehead but he sighed, even though he seemed to be calming himself down, but then he just sat down right next to her. I could see Psyche, she stood up, and walked out of the scene, maybe towards the small kitchen.

"This isn't working, Psyche." Blade sighed, his head was in his hands.

"How many times have we both said that?" Psyche asked, she finally walked back into view with a liquor bottle in her hand, she sat next to him, drinking out of the bottle, "That bitch Liz knows how to make some good stuff...wanna try?"

"I'm serious, this time, "Blade sighed and got up, I could see the shock look on Psyche's face, "All those men...I forgave you the first time...because we didn't know about your little transformation, but you knew this time. I should have knew better...this whole thing was a mistake."

"Wait...Blade...what was I supposed to do? Huh? Lay there...being raped over and over...and seeing that poor girl die like that-" Psyche grabbed Blade's hand but he snatch it away.

"You had...had..his smile...you had that killer look in your eyes...the same look. You almost killed Jack...How would I be able to face Liz if you killed him? I thought...I thought if I loved you enough you would change." Blade looked down.

"You're actually serious, "Psyche looked desperate now, panicked, her hands on Blade's chest, "Wait...Blade...sweetie, I can change...I will change...I won't killed anymore people, I promise-"

"It's not about the people...I can forgive you killing those men...really I can...but in your transformation...you dont attack those that don't pose a threat...Jack didn't...he was innocent, you're a demi, and you have psychic powers...you knew that he was innocent...but you wanted to kill him anyways...because he was there...you would kill an innocent person-" Blade was so close to the door but Psyche stepped in front again, "Move."

"Ok, maybe...but Blade, love. It was a moment's weakness. I'm sorry...I just went mad...you could understand that...please...I'm really really sorry. I'll change." She was pushed aside. I begin to see something similiar in Psyche, Blade's hand was on the knob and Psyche's plead turned more into a screech that echoed that the whole apartment, Blade turned around. She sounded like she was tearing up, "Please...Blade, I made some mistakes...ok...but didn't you too. Like you were suppose to kill me...or all those times you lied to me, or when you kidnapped me from my home."

"I made up for it by loving you, by protecting you...by trying to have a child with you...I would come home every night, tired from a hunt but still I would...we...but then you threw it all away...you killed our unborn child...You screwed up so many times...I don't know what to do anymore..."

"I said I am sorry...I'll change."

Blade shook his head, "You won't change...You're too much like him...your father...I could deal with it if you were like your mother because she had a better control...but-"

Psyche stepped in front again, she grabbed him by his shoulders, pulling him slightly to the side, so I could see both of them. She grabs him by the face and pulls him in for a long kiss on the lips, she was still holding him by the face when the kiss was broken, "Please...please...don't leave me...I love you...your the sane in my insanity. I'll be a better wife...*sob* I'll have more control...everything...we're both screw ups...can't we just start over...Please...I would lose my mind without you. I know you love me."

Blade didn't say a thing, he just pushed her away and was leaving, Psyche's pleads were almost heart breaking, she even grabbed Blade's hand but he just pulled away and I heard the door slam. I saw her on the floor in front of the door, still crying...her face was actually on the floor.

"Please come back...don't leave me...please..please...I'll change...I'll change." She was crumbling, I opened the door, walked over to her, and helped her up, she was still mumbling, "He can't be gone...he can't leave me...Right?" Here was the creature that tried to kill me...the one who caused me to be so close to death. Tears were still falling out of her eyes even as minutes passed, she was lying on the sofa, on the other side.

"Don't worry, I'm pretty sure that Blade will come back, he just needed time to think." I said.

"This isn't the first time...the first time this happened...he were fighitng...at first I wanted to go back home with my friends and my professor, but he didn't..." She was still crying, "It got so bad, that I just started throwing stuff and he left...he didn't come back for hours...the second time...not for days, everytime we fight...he stays away longer...What if he doesn't come back this time?"

"I'm sure he'll come back...he was so desparate to find you, you should have seen him...there's no way he's gonna go through all that, just to quit now."

"He says it hurts to love me." She just cried more, covering her face with her hands and she said nothing after that, because she was already asleep. Suddenly, I had this uneasy feeling...and the air became unbearably freezing, it was like swallowing ice, and then I heard a man's voice from behind me.

"He's just a snob like his mother. The nerve making my baby girl cry."

I got up, wincing in pain. I saw a man standing in a corner, he was drinking some of the liquor from the bottle. I could already tell, who this guy was, even when he appeared an the inhabitants of this planet...but either he was Psyche's twin brother or...

"Your...your her old man." I gulped, this was the psychopath that Blade told me about. He had short, light blue green hair, green blue eyes, but unlike the people here, his skin was pale. He wore a jacket, with a shirt, cargo pants and boots, but just by looking in his eyes...you could tell he was something to fear. He slightly grinned at me, as if deciding whether to kill me or not.

"Old man...hardly...but I got to say...your lady knows how to make a good drink...you really should start thinking about banging her...and soon too." He laughed, but then a frown came back on his face as he sat on the sofa, rubbing Psyche's head, she stirred but her eyes stayed close, "My poor little angel...she's had it rough...Ya think he would ease up on her. She can't help it if she has her mama blood lust, haha...Now if she had mines...that would be a different story."

I didn't say a thing, what could I say...Blade told me this guy was maddness itself but he acted so...so fatherly...but then I saw his reflection from the bottle...his eyes were black, veins surrounding like they were zapping the color from his face, I suddenly felt that same chill I felt early when Psyche attacked me.

"What are you?" I asked, stepping back, he looked at me.

"I know Blade told you about me, "He chuckled, cold air chilled my body, "He was always scared of me...ya know...it was fun...feeding on his fear...feeding on others' fear...the chaos..." He closed his eyes, licking his lips as if savoring a taste.

"Why are you here?" I asked, normally I wouldn't be so scared but seeing as this is Psyche's dad, the one who almost killed me, you kind of want to run.

"I can taste your fear, boy, "He stood up, walking towards me, he had this long dagger appear in his hands, he grabs my right hand, I was to stun to move. He stabs the dagger into my long finger, blood dripped onto the dagger and he licked the blade, "Tasty...My wife wants me to deliver a message...You must go tomorrow when you raid this Amar's house."

"Wha?"

"Go to Amar's house tomorrow."

"But..But...I was gonna try and go anyway, you're trip has been wasted."

He glared at me, still playing with the dagger, "Actually, Your Lizzie will object and you'll obey, resulting in Blade not wanting to go...so it's simple...go to the raid, make sure Blade is there as well."

"What? I can't-"

"Try to, boy. The blood my little princess gave you...will be very useful...use it carefully. It hasn't dissolve all the way yet...but it can still be lethal."

I was still confused, "Wait...what's in this for you?"

"Simple...one thing that me and my wife love more than chaos and destruction is our daughter, her life depends on you and Blade and if she dies...so does your...Liz."

"Liz? What-"

"Sorry, boy, my time is almost up...just remember to show up. Doing me a favor will help you in the long run...this whole situation...your girlfriend, that arm...even your ex wife's killer."

"Hey, I'm not agreeing to anything! Why should I just do-"

He started walking away, he wasn't as crazy as I thought he was...not even that scary. He stopped, and turned around to look at me.

"Not scary huh? Blade didn't tell you...that's right. Ya know...I only show it to those whom i'm about to kill..but I guess..since Blade saw it and is still alive...you could see to," He pulled his hands over his face, removing what seem to be a mask, but his face was still the same. Until he smiled...it was wide...in fact the corner of his mouth was going wider than possible...all the way up to his ears, he started laughing; revealing his mouth, how it looks like it would spilt his head wide open and...and the several rows teeth. He came closer and closer, holding his dagger in the air...the look of madness was in his eyes as they opened wide, but he had no iris...just this little black dot in them that glowed red. I kept telling myself to run but I couldn't move all I did was close my eyes.
