Thank BG-13 and check out We're friends now, aren't we?
Amon's POV
After my little informant had revealed that the Sato girl, the newest addition to my Beta family, was the Alpha's weakness, I decided to have my fun.
I immediately called my brother and asked Azula to look for another old friend of ours. This was about to get very interesting. I was a vampire, there was no doubt about that but I was…something else.
The Lapis Lazuli ring I wore protected me from the sunlight because part of me was locked away thanks to a curse. I was a hybrid. A creature more powerful than any vampire or werewolf and the only threat to me was the true Alpha.
Almost three hundred years ago, a witch had decided that I was an abomination of nature and locked away my wolf, forcing me to live as a vampire, never able to be the strong being I once was. Until now.
I had tried to create hybrids before but they all died before the change was complete. I didn't know why but I was about to find out. I had found the perfect person to force the Alpha to find a cure and know what else I needed to break the curse.
"What's the plan?" Tarrlok asked. I could already tell he was excited for the upcoming fight.
"Stay out of my way, little brother," I answered. "I'll compel the human thats with her and you can make sure no one intervenes."
I knew my Beta wasn't alone, she was with someone, though his heart beat a little faster than the typical human. I couldn't help the grin that spread across my face just before I burst in, knocking the door into the opposite wall as I made my grand entrance.
The girl bared her teeth at me as she morphed into her Beta form, intending to protect her mate. He on the other hand seemed unafraid.
"Tarrlok," I called when she made a move to attack me.
He was in between us in a flash and the boy tried helping the Sato girl only for me to cut his advance, grabbing him by the collar. He struggled against my hold and I simply slammed him against the wall before looking into his eyes.
"You're going to stand here and listen like a good little boy," I commanded as I compelled him.
No one was able to resist the compel ability, especially one from an older vampire such as myself. However, he surprised me when I turned around and he managed to smash something over my head. I simply smiled and turned around, knocking him against the wall and going over to where my Beta was.
"Stop or I'll kill her," I warned when he made a move towards me again. He clenched his jaw at this and did as he was told, causing me to smirk.
"Leave her alone," he growled.
"I'm going to make this very simple," I began. "I haven't been able to morph into my true self in three hundred years and since the true Alpha of the pack caused this, I want you to fix it."
"I don't-"
"Every time I attempt to turn a werewolf into a vampire hybrid, they die during the transition," I continued. "It's quite horrible actually," I added as I bit my wrist making it bleed and forcing the Beta to drink it. She struggled at first but I'd like to think I'm persistent. "I need you to find a way to save my hybrids and, for Asami's sake, you better hurry," I finished before snapping her neck.
"No!" he yelled as he starred at the limp body that fell on the floor.
"Don't worry her death isn't permanent," I assured. "For now," I warned when I stood next to him, right before leaving.
When I was a good distance away I stopped and soon my brother caught up to me. He seemed a little out of breath since vampire's were naturally faster than Beta's.
"What now?" Tarrlok asked.
"Tahno?" I called.
My creation stepped forward; visibly unhappy to be ordered around. I smiled at him and gestured him forward to where we were.
"Follow them, and make sure you keep your eyes and ears open," I ordered. "I need to know how they'll save her."
"I don't think they'll be able to," my brother interjected. "Nothing ever works."
"I'm sure they'll find a way," I answered. I was sure of it. "After all, the little Alpha will do anything for our Beta. The Alpha won't stop till they do."
Mako's POV
The vampire, Amon, had snapped Asami's neck. He'd told me she wasn't dead, but I already knew that and I also knew I had to get her out here. I picked her up bridal style and put her in my car before driving to a nearby cabin she had once showed me. I couldn't let her father find her like this because I knew he'd kill her.
On my way there I called Korra and told her that I needed her at the cabin. She immediately responded she was on her way and I hung up just as I arrived at our destination. I went to the door, but found it locked and I did the next best thing: break in through the window.
Once I opened the door I grabbed Asami and carried her inside, gently laying her down in one of the rooms while I wiped the blood from her mouth. I hated seeing her this way, so vulnerable…and she would be lost when she woke up, unaware of the change that was occurring inside her.
"What's wrong?" Korra asked as she came inside, slightly out of breath. She must've ran all the way here.
"Amon snapped her neck," I whispered, looking up at her.
I saw the teen pale considerable before leaning against the wall, looking for support. She looked like the world had suddenly tilted. I knew what she was thinking. She thought her best friend was dead. That she'd failed...that she'd lost the most important person outside her pack.
"She's dead?" the werewolf croaked. Her tone was broken and it actually hurt me.
I shook my head. "She's not dead," I said. "Amon's blood will turn her into a vampire."
Her eyes widened at this before shaking her head. "I have to tell the pack," Korra answered. "I don't know what we're dealing with, vampires…they're our sworn enemies."
"They'll kill her!" I answered incredulously.
"I-I never seen this," she answered.
"Amon said that the true Alpha knew what to do," I explained. "If we don't figure out what to do she'll die. The side effects are horrible, eyes bleed out she'll be rabid-"
"Rabid?" the teen asked. "Mako, she's a danger to us. We don't know if that guy is just bluffing."
"He's not," I insisted. "I've read through some journals that Asami's ancestors had. Their death is horrible and we need to save her."
"I don't know what we're dealing with," Korra repeated. "Mako, I need to get you out of here. She could kill you if what you say is true. She's rabid during the full moon, I don't know how she'll get with this."
"If you're not going to help me, then leave," I finally snapped. "And if you try to kill her, you'll have to do the same to me." She froze. "I thought you cared about her! I thought she was your friend!"
"She is!"
"You've sentenced her to death if you tell the pack! It's your fault if she dies!"
Korra took a step back, hurt evident on her face.
"Leave," I repeated.
With a shake of her head she turned around and left. Before she was even out of the door I already knew she'd turned into a wolf and I regretted the harshness of my words but I needed Asami to be okay. I hadn't been able to protect her and the least I could do is help her through this.
Not long after Korra left, Asami took in a deep breath as if she had been holding it for a long time, looking around franticly. I asked her to calm down and she looked at me, fear evident in her eyes.
"Where am I?" she asked. "What happened?"
I hesitated.
"Come now, don't be shy about it," a voice said.
I turned to find someone outside the door, arms crossed. His skin was pale, his eyes pale blue and he had some sort of a weird hairdo. I already knew what he was: vampire. I growled at him but my fiancé pulled my attention back on her.
"Asami," I began.
"What's going on?" she asked.
"Amon is turning you into a vampire," I revealed. "A hybrid. You're in the transition."
Her eyes widened at this.
"Don't leave out the best part, lover boy," the figure interjected.
"Who are you?" I finally growled.
"Does it matter?" he asked before looking at Asami. "You'll only survive, if your little friend is successful. And if not, you're pretty much dead."
I saw Asami stiffen.
"I must say I'm surprised though that your dear friend chose the pack over you. Right now, she practically signing your death warrant."
"That's not true," Asami whispered. She looked to me for confirmation but I couldn't give her any.
"You're going to be okay," I countered instead, pulling her close to me. "Everything is going to be okay."
"Tick tock," the vampire said. "Time is running out." And then he was gone.
A/N:Happy Valentines Day! :)
