Chapter 3
Standing in front of them was a seven or eight foot Demonicus. At the time, no one knew what it was, but Victoria did. After all, it was after her.
"All of you go through that door!" Victoria whispered in a harsh tone.
"No! I'll stay and help you," Selene replied her eyes turning a deadly blue. She took out her guns.
"Your guns wont work and my transformation will kill you because it gives off a form of sunlight" Victoria yelled strictly. Selene started to protest, when Victoria looked at Michael "Help please!"
Michael swept Selene up with ease and ran to the door. Leah ran ahead and held the door open; once they were all inside Leah started groping for a light switch, instead she flicked a switch that created a gold gel like substance which cleared and gave way to a numinous screen showing Victoria fighting the Demonicus. He made the first move lashing out a nine foot tongue that stuck over her heart. She gave him one good scratch leaving four deep gashes on his neck and face he let go with a yell. However now Victoria was pissed; her eyes shone gold along with the rest of her body the light grew brighter and brighter in wave formation. Selene realized her transformation would have turned her to ash. After a sudden flash Victoria was huge she was a least twice the size of her opponent. The two went after each other but every scratch healed. They soon realized this would take forever they were both invincible.
Eventually they took to they air hoping one of them would have an advantage in the process sending shards of glass tumbling to the ground like a blizzard. Victoria happened to be the older Demonicus by 2,000 years prier to this century was more experienced. She gave him an unbelievable left hook that sent him flying into a fairly large Chestnut tree. Victoria came after him and cut off his head with a sward hided in the outer wall of the house; she flew back in to the house and landed gracefully on the glass coated floor carrying the blackish red blood stained sword. Lucian, Leah, Michael, and Selene piled out of the room. Victoria grabbed the blanket and wrapped it around herself for when she changed back she was stark naked.
Lucian was shocked since the blanked was slightly transparent and light in color. He also started to smell blood he looked her over when his eyes meet a gash near her ribs, he moved forward, but Victoria backed away and snarled. The smell of ash filled the air, her cut was healing. Everyone gave her a questioning look, she stuck out her arm and dug her long nails into her skin; leaving three talon like gashes the flesh around her cuts turned ash like gray and healed.
"I'll be fine follow me and I'll show you to your rooms," Victoria said with twinge of pain. With every step she took her legs screamed from the shards of glass moving deeper and deeper in to her feet.
When it came to Michael and Selene she said, "I didn't know if you wanted to share a room, so you have conjoining rooms the door on the left leads to the next room," as she threw them four keys, two each.
Victoria walked off practically falling down the hall. Selene and Michael walked into the room to Michael's surprise she made no effort to leave; so Michael grabbed her around her waist and asked her, "Why did you come for me when I was chained and turn me?"
Unable to form a coherent answer she stepped forward and gave him a long passionate kiss. When they broke apart, her amber eyes saw right through him all she said was, "Why did you grow furious with Viktor when he hit me?"
Michael replied, "I feel…... I know… that I'm in love with you……I love you Selene."
The two decided to take a shower. Selene washed the blood off of Michael's smooth but slightly toned chest and neck. Michael in turn kissed her forehead and wiped the dried blood from her temple. They spent about a half hour holding each other under the hot water until Michael suggested they get some food. Selene turned off the water while Michael wrapped a towel around his waist and then one around Selene; he picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. To their surprise clothes were in the drawer including the ones they brought from Hungary.
"This must be some kind of spell or enchantment," Selene said while making a mental note to ask Victoria.
