Chapter Five: Ultimate Risk

The snarls echoed off the trees as wolf and vampire came at each other again and again. I witnessed Zane rip his claws into Seth's shoulder and blood spilled onto the ground. Seth howled in rage and pain and tore a chunk out of Zane's arm before leaping away.

My eyes had been trained to follow speed, among many other things, and I could see them clearly as they danced the most dangerous dance one could know…Death.

One of them would die if this didn't stop and soon. The question was. Who? My best friend or the one I loved? My eyes flitted around the field as werewolves and vampires stood to witness this brawl and no one made a move to stop them. I saw Kaleb being restrained by Emmett and Jasper as he struggled to get to his twin. I felt a sharp twist in my stomach.

'It's his fault.' I thought in blind anger and my powers swept through me. I breathed in deeply and I could taste the night air and the scents that came with it. I would finish this.

As I began to use the night to be my power source I realized I smelt a scent I knew and knew well…Cherries and sandalwood…SHIT!

I forced my eyes open at the same time a horrible screech sound rained out and Zane collapsed to the ground his chest rising up and down rapidly I saw he still had his legs and one arm the other laying two feet away. His chest had a huge gaping hole in it I could see the ground through him. I looked to Seth whose leg was twisted at an impossible angle and his shoulder was bleeding even more profusely.

I felt my stomach twist when I looked to his eyes they were swollen shut and bleeding as well. I once more smelt the cherries and sandalwood. Zane looked over to me and saw my face.

"Sa- Sarina?" His voice was so feeble and weak…I released my energy in one fell swoop accompanying it was my scream of pain this was all I could do before my anger at Zane had been so strong and my love for Seth was impossibly wide, but now the threat they both may die pushed me to a breaking point and everything came crashing down. Seth whipped his head to me a whine of pain not for himself but for me came to him and I felt them, I wasn't quick enough my power wasn't enough.

Seth…I'm too weak.

Zane…I am too young to grasp everything yet….and…

I'm so sorry…Oh God….I'm so sorry.

~~Time passes lapse of 2 months~~

I walked quietly down the hallway of the Institution I knew where I was going and how to get there as I passed people bowed and muttered greetings to me.

I opened the mahogany doors that led to the throne room and my elder brother and father.

I looked first to my father who had been released from prison about a month ago. He looked to me as well and offered an empty smile one I returned just as empty.

My eyes then trailed to my brother. Dominic Kato Bennet with his raven hair hanging in his face and sapphire blue and amethyst eyes everyone knew that I was his kin and he mine.

My brother nodded his head to the side to acknowledge the fact that I had arrived before standing from the throne and away from a cloaked individual who moved smoothly behind him. I tensed and the air left my lungs in a hiss.

"You have been exiled Shimon Major." I breathed as the man removed his hood to reveal silver hair and blazing green eyes that locked on my own in a match of stature. I let my powers surround him and take the air from around him.

"I ask then Shimon… Why are you in my court? Why are you near my father and brother? What business do you have with me Stripped Wiccan?" My powers tightened around him effectively cutting off his air supply and causing him to turn a lovely shade of blue it made me smile to know I was FINALLY getting this bastard for what he had done.

"Sarina Kari…Enough sister he has information about your vampire and crystal." My brother's voice held no emotion as he commanded me to stop. He knew I could either take pity and listen or pop this cockroach out of existence, but Dominic would tell me nothing if I did the latter.

I growled in annoyance even though truly my heart was in my throat. 'Seth?' I thought in vain hope…No it wasn't possible. My eyes closed as I let the past wash through me. Had it really only been two months?

"Sa-Sarina?" Zane talked so feebly and looked so tired and they were coming closer. I let my powers release full force and felt the pain it caused rip from my throat.

"SARINA!" Seth started to run towards me he had returned to his human form and even with broken bones and gaping holes in his body he ran for me. I wailed in misery…it wouldn't be enough.

I felt the Guards presence before they descended near me one taking my shoulder roughly.

"Lady Sarina Princess to the Covenant we have been sent to retrieve and exterminate those who hurt you and your kin." The voice belonged to Shimon the Guards leader and only Dhampire. I shivered.

"Wait Shimon you have it wrong!" I wailed miserably if my brother had sent them it wouldn't matter what I said they would act on orders or worse yet on their own bloodlust. I latched onto Shimon and shook him.

"One is my crystal Shimon you must st-." my eyes widened as I took in Shimon's expression… he didn't care! His eyes held only the glory of battle and pride he'd not let me finish my sentence. The Guard was an elite group and failure was not an option and my interference was a failure.

Seth continued to run to me yelling out my name when Shimon powered his energy I could sense it rising and I tried to counteract it instead my body felt weary and broken I looked down to see a Guard's magic wrapped around my waist.

"N-n-no, Please s-s-top Seth is…" My body fell away from Shimon just as he released the fire ball that ran straight for Seth's limping form. I collapsed onto the ground as a Guard picked me up I heard the most horrible sound in my life.

The sound of a high keen, a scream of misery, a horrible crunch, a howl of horror.

Then the smell of blood and the gift of Darkness befalling me as I was taken away.

My breathing was uneven I had never found out who had died, but I knew someone was gone whether from the pack or the coven all of them had tried to protect me because Seth loved me…

I turned to my brother and my eyes flashed a deep burgundy color. "Tell me Dominic what happened the night you sent for me to be torn away from protection." My voice held a coldness my people would fall to their knees from, but my voice held no control over another royal so I instead sounded pissed, which I was.

Dominic sighed in annoyance, in the two months of my arrival my powers had grown and my heart had turned cold and dead I was a Hollow Witch, or Dicca, a wiccan with the ability to draw the life forces surrounding her into her own, my powers were formidable and I was no longer a confused child unable to control herself.

I was an able to survive the separation of losing my Crystal and retaining my sanity, something most cannot do, I retained my magic and grew stronger, another miracle on its own, and I died inside… Dominic believed it was because I hadn't become one with Seth that my body and mind survived even if emotionally in my heart I was gone.

I was now one of the strongest Dicca; witches who lose everything die, go berserk and get stripped, or turn into Death Witches one of the most dangerous of our kind and that was me.

Dominic was the most dangerous of us all a Necromancer the controller of Death and its substance. He was a Deathbringer or Lifegiver. I wondered why then my brother did not wish to rule our people and had asked him a multitude of times why he didn't just stay in power. He was a good ruler even if his powers were Dark and Decaying.

…he told me I was a Chosen Ruler to my people and with my crystal by my side I would bring the world to light for our people…

I believed it all the moment I saw Seth and then just as quick as I saw my future shine brightly for me and him, to see my wedding and bonding to him, to feel passion, and to see my stomach grow with his child inside…it was ripped away.

I hissed and turned on Shimon getting right in his face.

"Report one thing to me first Shimon who died that night?" I growled my powers slowly seeping forward. Shimon shook with fear.

"In exchange I live Milady and I can leave here free." He panted his vampire blood could only do so much for him when I could roast his ass like a Turkey.

I snarled. "You tread on dangerous ground s with me already Dhampire do you have a death wish you want me to grant?" I gripped his hand and pulled a knife from my side and sliced his palm open before slicing my own and pushing my hand to his.

"By blood I grant you only this you will leave alive.. Do you accept?" I eyed my brother from the side and saw him nod his head in understanding. If Shimon accepted and told the truth he lived if not I kill him and Dominic tells me what he knows…I hoped the fool chose the latter so I could drain him dry.

"Yes milady" he whispered.

'Damn! I wished that brain of yours hadn't kicked in.' I thought as I released his hand and walked to my father sitting beside him a neutral look fell over my features as I waved my hand for Shimon to begin.

I grinned to myself as he slowly walked forward and sat in front of me…I have never seen a former Guard become so frightened, but then again I have never seen a FORMER guard sooo. I enjoyed this especially seeing as how it was this little maggot.

Shimon breathed in deeply then exhaled and launched into his tale.

"We were sent by your brother because word had gotten to intelligence that you were in danger and had been hurt badly and at the time you know it was the truth. Your mother was dead, father in prison, and the vampires who had killed your mother had tried to kill you and erased your memories. We were dispatched by Lord Dominic to retrieve you and bring you home because somehow word had also gotten to Volturi." I hissed and looked to Dominic for confirmation and seeing his eyes flash burgundy I knew it was the truth…and that wasn't good.

Shimon continued. "We immediately set out with the information we had, all we knew was shape shifters had taken you in because one knew your father and around the area a coven of vampires resided there one of them being the Rogue Vampires older brother. We thought you were hurt when we got to the clearing and saw your face in pain and sad and then to see a duel as well we panicked we needed to get you out and home. I had a guard restrain you and make you sleep due to you seeming out of wits, forgive my mannerisms milady, and turned to what I believed were the monsters who had caused it." Once more Shimon took a breath and I did as well this was what I wanted to know.

"The shifter Seth, your crystal, was not killed that night milady the fireball struck the little black haired vampire girl, who appeared out of nowhere as if she knew what would happen, and slung her into a grey colored wolf who had dashed in front of Seth it incinerated the vampire and the impact fractured ribs in the wolf…She bled to death. The twins broke away as the one being held got free and grabbed his brother." Then Shimon bowed his head "And we ran with you in our care as we heard howls and screams pierce the air."

My hands were shaking horribly and my breathing was erratic as I struggled not to scream and fall apart right then, my heart which I was so sure was dead and gone was in more pain than I had ever felt before. I looked over when I felt a hand touch my bowed head.

"Daddy… I got his sister killed and Jasper's mate..." a small wail came from my throat. My father merely petted my head till I regained enough sense to stop blubbering like a baby.

Dominic had sent Shimon out and was now in front of me.

"Sister it is true the Volturi know of us and you they are calling for blood for Zane's disposition Kaleb went to them with his brother and asked for help against us who would expose everything to humans, a lie obviously. We either defend or fall. I leave the choice to you but it is either us or Seth first and…I'm sorry." My brother's voice lowered as he kneeled in front of me and gently took my hands. "If I had known the truth I would've left you alone and let him protect you with his brothers." I gently kissed my brother's cheek effectively cutting him off as I stood.

My father looked up to me and blinked before a fire slowly started in his eyes and he too stood.

I had made my decision…

"I will defend my people...then I will go to my Crystal and I WILL fix everything that has been done."

My eyes changed to burgundy and my heart beat wildly…

Seth…I'm coming my love…
