"I knew you would come crawling back."
"Fuck! Did you have to shoot me?"
"Safety reasons."
Thane looked up at Kraven who's gun was still smoking. The gun went off again hitting Thane in the arm. He feel to the floor gripping his wound.
"Son of a bitch!"
Thane stood up and grabbed Kraven by the throat and slammed him up against the wall. He watched as the veins in Kraven's head bulged. It took four death dealers to pull him off and calm him down.
"Kraven I'll kill you with my bare hands."
Kraven laughed as he watched Thane struggle under the almost 400 pounds of vampires. They dragged him off. The butt of a rifle made contact with Thane's head and he went out. Selene watched as he was dragged down the hallway and out of sight. When the doors closed Kraven turned to Soren.
"I'll be talking with Viktor."
Lucian was in the lab waiting for Raze to return.
"Any word from Thane?" asked Lucian.
"We followed him to the mansion. He went inside, but he didn't come out."
"Shit! He'll know in a matter of hours, but I can't go barging in there."
Oh. . . Sonja please watch over him. Lucian slammed his fists into the metal tray sending medical instruments flying. Kraven stood in front of Viktor.
"So tell me about Thane?"
"We have him."
"Good finally you did something right."
"What am I supposed to do with him?"
"The counsel will decide that. I wish to speak to him."
"I highly advice against that. He's uncontrollable."
"Kraven I want to see him."
"Yes right away."
Kraven walked down the hallway and to the room where Thane was being held. He opened the door to find to death dealers guarding him. He looked up at Kraven Thane had a large cut over his eye. He would have jumped out of the chair, but he was handcuffed behind his back.
"Bring him."
Mason and Kahn picked him up and led him to the tombs. When they entered there was Viktor sitting on his throne. Thane looked over at Selene she wasn't paying attention.
"Holy fuck! Viktor I never thought you'd last this long."
"And you should have died a long time ago."
"I'm not going anywhere soon."
"What happened to your rags?"
"Times change Viktor, but I see you'll still wearing a dress."
"Watch you tone with me!"
"Fuck you."
He looked up at him. Kraven elbowed him the stomach. Thane coughed and nearly sank to his knees, but he wouldn't show weakness in front of Viktor. They glared at each other for a long period of time.
"You will be judged by the council."
Thane could see himself in front of the vampire elders and being sentenced to death. Why don't they shoot me now. There was silence for a long time.
"So when is Amelia being awakened?"
"Excuse me, but that is none of your business."
"Good than there is no reason for me to be here."
Thane turned kicked one of the death dealers in the head. Jumped in the air shifting the handcuffs from the back to the front. Jumped kicked Kahn and the foot of his boot slammed into his jaw. Thane bolted out of the doors and down the hallways. He came to the doors, but then searing pain came into his head to the point where he thought his head was going to the floor. He suddenly became paralyzed and his face smashed into the ground. Thane screamed out in pain. His eyes were wide they were bloodshot. The veins in his throat and head bulged.
"What's wrong with him?"
Viktor immediately knew that this was Amelia control upon her son. She could sense he was there and needed him to stay. As he looked upon Thane his heart grieved like that when he burned his Sonja alive.
"Take him."
They lifted him off the ground, but not without a good swift kick from Kahn. His feet dragged as they placed him face down on a metal bed. Viktor took one more look at him before turning to the death dealers, Kraven and the others that inhabited the house.
"It's time. . ."
