Selene allows the tears to come from her eyes as she pulls herself out of her memories "Selene?" she turns to face Michael who looks tired and forlorn, Selene starts to fear the worst. Michael approaches her and kneels "I won't get into Kailyn's injuries but I'm afraid that she has some serious injuries I've done as best I can but she needs help."

The ex death dealer nods her head slowly realising what the hybrid is saying "We will have to go to the Lycans den but we have to get in contact with them," she stands up and starts to look around desperately, she opens draws and digs through them without really searching them.

Michael watches Selene anxiously to see if she is going to break down, she continues to look around but after not finding whatever she is looking for she punches a hole through the wall and drops to her hands and knees, her shoulders are shaking showing the other immortal that she is finally breaking down. Michael approaches his lover and kneels to her level "tell me what's wrong?"

Selene looks up to stare into Michaels eyes "This is all Viktor's fault, the war, my life and Kailyn's condition, everything" she sobs and Michael brings her into his arms "why couldn't he just except that he was wrong, he killed his daughter and I don't know how he did it because I could never do that," Selene continues to sob in Michaels arms, she buries her head in the crock of his neck and he rubs her back soothingly finding it easy as she has stopped wearing leather outfits and he doesn't know why as the boot of her car has a few spare, he makes a note to ask about it later.

The sound of a ringing phone disrupts the couple and they quickly pull apart to find the phone, Selene checks the living room whilst Michael returns to the bedroom, he looks in Kailyn's bag and finds her mobile phone going off, he checks the caller ID. "Selene I've found it and it's Artemis!" as soon as he finished his sentence she is through the door and for the first time in hours her eyes land on her daughter, who is almost covered from head to toe in bandages, the bandages are mostly white but large areas are stained red with Kailyn's blood. Selene freezes as she finally notices Kailyn's slow heart beat faltering every dozen beats or so. Michael is right her injuries are very serious. Michael accepts the call and is instantly greeted by Artemis's voice.

"Kailyn you took your time answering" the low gruff voice of the current Lycan alpha is tinted in amusement.

Michael's gaze flicks to the slowly dying Vampyre before her answers "Artemis it's not Kailyn but listen we were attacked by death dealers and Kailyn sent Selene and I to her apartment as she fought them by herself I think she said there were over a dozen." Michael looks over at Selene who is blankly staring at her daughter's still form.

Artemis instantly sobers up and becomes the authority figure that he is "is she with you now, can you put her on the phone?" his voice serious and almost worried.

Michael shakes his head as he answers "she is with us but she dropped into unconsciousness even before I tried to fix her up, she's lost a lot of blood and we don't have the right equipment or supplies to help her in the apartment but I did manage to remove most of the bullets without further damage, it took me a few hours she had more bullets than an armoury," Michael speaks quickly and clearly to portray the urgency of the situation.

Artemis sounds like he is conversing with someone at his end then he replies to Michael "you'll have to bring her to our den" he says as he again gives orders to someone at his end "head to the club and Vaughn will meet you outside to guide you down and into the medical bay where Ashera will sort Kailyn out," he orders Michael who instantly starts to act and hangs up the phone, Selene who heard the conversation starts to move again and she grabs up Kailyn and heads for the apartment door.

Michael picks everything that they might need including Selene and Kailyn's bag. Michael locks the apartment door as he exits and rather than take the stairs he drops down the middle and lands as Selene reaches the bottom step.

Selene rushes to her car in order to get Kailyn behind the UV protected glass, she turns to face Michael "I'll take the car and you take Kailyn's bike so you can go faster and you can tell them about her wounds, I have a feeling Vaughn, Drake and Artemis will be meeting us one of them should be able to take you to where Ashera will be in order to help her," Selene heads for the driver's door and Michael heads for the bike. Selene pulls off first but is quickly over taken by a very fast Michael. Selene looks in the mirror when she hears a pained moan from behind her, she sees Kailyn's face contort into a grimace "Kailyn can you hear me?" Kailyn's head turns towards her mother's voice signalling that she can hear her "we are on our way to the Lycan's den but I need you to remain conscious can you do that for me?"

Kailyn opens her eyes slightly and looks at Selene through the slits "s'not gon 'appen 'fraid," her eyes close again and her breathing starts to slow when she hears her mother call her name again "mmmm wake."

Selene swallows the sigh trying to escape her lips at seeing Kailyn fighting to stay awake, her daughter isn't out danger yet "did you get them all?" starting a conversation seems like the easiest way to keep her awake, "let me guess first, Curtis left all of his men to die?"

Kailyn laughs painfully "you'd be right," she bends her leg slightly to try and relieve the sudden numbness of the limb only for it to start spreading "s'not good." Selene looks back at Kailyn again hearing those words to her horror she hears Kailyn's heart slowing down further and watches her arm slide off of her chest to hang limply at her side.

Selene turns a corner and notices two men standing outside of the club, she quickly pulls up and sees Vaughn and Artemis running towards the car. She quickly gets out of the car and notices Kailyn's bike next to her car in the staff car park, Vaughn opens the back passenger door and with care picks up Kailyn's now completely limp body and rushes off to the infirmary. Selene tries to follow but her body is frozen in its spot and is trying with all her might to move, she notices Artemis standing next to her but offering her no comfort almost if he knew she didn't want it from him only two people were allowed to comfort her now and they were both in the den, that is full of Lycans she has been hunting since her turning, the ex death dealer turns her head to see Artemis looking at her, he nods and turns around and starts to rush of to the infirmary, without much resistance her body willingly follows him. A shout echoes through the Den, the words she never wished to hear "I'm not getting a heartbeat!"
