Last time: Asha went after her mother even if it means it would take her life

*************************************************************

I placed the dagger in the back of my pants and the sword on my thigh sensing my mother and someone else in the room. I didn't realize that someone else had come with my mother, but right now wasn't the time to figure out who it was. I waited for her to make the first move, but she just stood there looking at me then the other person stood out of the shadows and I saw my father, Lestat. If anything else could get any worse then this please let me know. I was shocked, but didn't let it show and instead I questioned my father bout his loyalty to me and he told me everything. Lestat walked closer to me "you see Asha it's true bout your mother and everything I've told you, but I've been keeping something back from you and now you can know. Your mother came back to me after her little affair with Luie and told me that she was only using him to get to a treasure that she had found out about. They went to Paris and back to the remains of the old theater that had blown up to find the treasure that was still there. Luie knew bout the treasure to, but didn't tell your mother that so he turned his back on her and went after it when she was asleep. Then he went and told the head master of her whereabouts and her intentions of taking the treasure. Just happened to be the head masters treasure so he went to the location that Luie told him and killed her right there on the spot. I heard bout the news and went right over to Paris to get your mothers body and restore it then brought her back over here. You remember those 3 weeks that you left, well that's when I went to Paris to get her and bring her back. Now she's back to her beautiful self and is more powerful then she use to be. Now all you have to do is give up the place of queen and give it back to your mother then you can stay alive." Lestat said matter-of-factly and walked closer to me placing his hand on my cheek.

I glared up at him "I will never give up my place as queen and I will fight both of you if necessary to keep it that way. I'm not afraid of you any more and I'm not a child anymore so I'm not letting you rule over me anymore" I said sternly standing my ground watching my fathers reaction become anger and frustration. Out of nowhere Lestat took his hand and hit me with all of his might sending me down and over to a nearby wall. I glanced up at him and for once I was scared of my parents, but didn't let it show on my face or in my eyes cause I knew they would be able to sense it inside of me. I sensed Edge somewhere around the room, but couldn't place where he was at and knew that my parents could sense it also cause my mom was looking terrified and my dad was glancing around the room. I took this as my advantage and punched my father with all that I had sending him flying over to the other side of the room hitting the wall. I stood up and went into the shadows hiding from my parents for the time being until I could find Edge.

I felt arms wrap around my waist and knew it was Edge so I leaned back into his chest with a sign of relief. I glanced up at him 'are you ready for this?' I asked in his mind 'as I'll ever be my angle and remember I love you Asha' Edge said and kissed me tenderly deepening the kiss then pulling away. I stayed in his arms for another min and then jumped out of the shadows attacking my mother clawing at her face.

I jumped back off her and grabbed my dagger then went back attacking my mother, but she grabbed my arm and threw me into a column. I got up and staggered for a bit then went after her again, but this time I was prepared for her move and jumped out of the way when she ran at me. I jumped along the rafters and watched for her waiting for her to do something and finally I got my chance when she let her guard down for a slight second. I jumped from the rafter and dug my dagger into her back shoving it further into her hearing her scream with pain. She turned around and hit me, but I ducked and swung my leg under her feet making her fall to the ground. I had the sword to her throat getting ready to behead my mother when a strong force shoved me off her and into a wall. I looked through my blurry vision and saw Lestat helping my mother up and pulled the dagger out of her back then healed her and ran back over to a battered Edge lying on the floor who was moving still. I saw my mother come after me and for once I felt helpless not able to move or help Edge. In an instant my mother was standing over me with a silver tipped sword in her hands preparing to kill me, but in a flash of blonde hair Luie was over me crying in pain as the sword stabbed his heart. Luie then turned around and sliced my mothers head off with my sword then dropped to his side and laid on the floor in a pool of his own blood. I picked his head up and placed it in my lap stroking his blonde hair "oh Luie I'm so sorry please don't leave me" I pleaded with tears in my eyes "don't worry bout me Asha besides you still have Edge with you. Don't tell me that you don't either cause I know you do. I've seen the way you look at each other and I did this because I love you Asha. I know you can't return my love, but I want you to be happy and if it's with him then so be it. Now go and live happily ever after with your true love" Luie said before slipping into a deep endless sleep.

*So this is the part where we let a tear fall for our lovely Luie and his love for Asha even if it did kill him in the end, or did it? It's not the end of this story yet so keep R&R. Thanks!
