Selene: This is getting ridiculous.

Me: The peace treaty is taking forever.


"Dismissed." Dad said.

Everyone got up and went their own way to gather the weapons needed etc. I stood up to do the same. Mom stopped me. I turned to look at her. "What is it, Mom?"

"Be careful." She said standing up and hugged me.

"I will." I said pulling away. "I'll be with Kahn like Dad said." With that said, I kissed her on the cheek and left to gather my weapons from the armory. When I got there, Kahn handed me my P99 pistols with both silver nitrate and UV rounds. "Thanks, Kahn."

He nodded. "Time to test your skills. I trained your mother and she trained you. So time to see what you got. You have your mother's instincts." He said handing me extra UV rounds.

I put everything in my bag and holsters on my waist. I grabbed my knife and put in my boot as always. "I'm ready. Lets go."

Everyone nodded and Kahn lead us to the city subway station.


Once there, Kahn had everyone go in split groups. "Elizabeth, you stake out the rooftops."

"Dad said to stay with you at all times."

"I can't test you if I don't send you on your own. You have your mother's instincts and senses. You think just like her. Your father will understand. Go and keep me posted."

I sighed and went to the rooftop. Everything was quiet. A little too quiet. I grabbed my pistols and looked behind me to see a vampire heading my way for an attack. I shot it in the shoulder, once in the legs, and once in the arms. He doubled over in pain and I approached him.I pulled him by the hair and pointed my pistol at his head. "Who are you working for!?" I shouted.

He just laughed. "Like I'm gonna tell you." He spat.

I pushed my pistol against his temple harder. "I don't think you're in any position to sway. Now tell me, who are you working for?!"

"Ok ok. He was in the coven many years ago. Selene killed Viktor and he went to kill Markus for power. He faked his death making everyone believe he was killed by Markus. He came and gathered the street lycans. Said he wanted our help to regain power in the coven. He sent us to give you a message."

I knew who he was talking about then. "KRAVEN." I said like it was acid on my tongue.

"PLEASE, don't kill me." He begged.

"I got what I wanted." I said venomously. I shot him in the head four times like Mom always does. I got to my walki-talki and messaged Kahn. "Kahn!"

"Elizabeth?"

"They were sent to give us a message. They're working for KRAVEN." I hissed the name. "He's alive."

"Good work, Liz. Go home and let the whole coven know."

"Ok. See you soon." I said and left.


When I got home, I found Mom and Dad in the courtyard. "Kahn sent me home because I found out very important information."

"What is it?" Mom asked.

"You're not gonna like it."

"Why? What is it?"

"The street vampires were being used. They were sent to give us a message. They're working for KRAVEN. He's alive."

"WHAT!?"

"Yeah. He faked his death making everyone believe Markus killed him. He gathered the street vampires and asked for their help. He wants to regain power in the coven."

"Michael, lets go. We're going after him."

"We need to tell the whole coven. I'm going with you." I said following them.

"Liz, no. It's too dangerous. Kraven is very strong. I can't risk something happening to you. You mean too much to me."

"No. I'm going with you. I'll be fine."

"She's your daughter, Selene. She's as stubborn as you are and has your instincts and senses. She won't listen. She thinks just like you."

"Besides, I can read his thoughts. You're gonna need my help. You'll be no match for him alone. Especially after you two barely escaped him the last time you fought him." I added.

Mom sighed. "Fine. You can come."
