Rose ran off to Christians side glancing back at me, I could feel her love poring from those eyes, she was my rosa and I would fight... I would fight with all of my being to keep them safe, my family, my babies, lissa, Christian and there family. pretty much everyone here, they were my family, the people I loved and I would kill every single monster who tried to destroy that, they come first, not moroi but my family. I ran to the first Strigoi I could get, my stake in hand, I swiped my hand up over his chest but he was quick, obviously older. i circled him for a moment watching his movements thinking of a strategy, I swiped again, he dodged my stake from hitting his chest again, but this time I managed an upward strike that dragged the stake's tip across his face. It wouldn't kill him there, but the touch of a stake - so filled with life - would feel like acid to the undead. He screamed, but it didn't slow his defences. I moved again, he was fast, he scratched my arm, deep, I winced for a moment. while he thought I was distracted I jumped at him, before he could respond I plunged my stake in to his chest.
My vision was blurring and my body slowed from exhaustion, I had cuts and scrapers everywhere and we still had a few to go. I looked over for a quick second to see rose stake another one, she was covered in scratches to, a lot of them deep and she looked about as tired as I felt. Christian looked ready to pass out next to Eddie who was covered in blood, trying to hide that he had hurt his ankle and failing to stand properly. We had lost a few guardians in the fight, luckily no one I knew but still lives lost. We had killed an Impossible amount of Strigoi, at least 20 dead on the ground with at least 5 of Lissa's guardians along side them.
The Strigoi were nearing us but not one on one, as a group. My heart begun to race as I ran over to my wife. We begun to group up our selves but we weren't in fighting shape. Everything around me was spinning. Rose grabbed my arm to keep me steady looking extremely worried, I couldn't have her worrying about me while fighting. I smiled at her getting my balance back, she dropped her hand but still... I blinked a few Times to get the spots out of my eyes. as soon as I could see again I heard rose scream

"Eddie!" I screamed I looked back to the group of Strigoi, there were about seven of them left grouped not to far away smiling at us like we were there snacks "god damn it!".I had no time to check Eddie, no matter how badly I wanted to, i could see him breathing which was the only reason I could turn away from him, I had to fight. (All happening in a matter of seconds 3 ). I grabbed Christian by the arm almost knocking him off balance "Chris can you fight?" I looked him in the eye waiting for his response "I think I've got one more in me, I can set them alight but I think I'll pass out, and I need to get close" I nodded then turned to Dimitri and the other 3 guardians who all looked ready to collapse, Dimitri still looked off balanced but I had no time to argue for him to go to the church. I knew he wouldn't. "Are you ready?" I was looking at everyone but I was asking my Husband, he was bleeding all over and had probably broken some bones. i think everyone was like that, even Christian was limping a little. "I'm ready, I'll pull lord ozara out when he's done then join you all, save me one" Dimitri was trying to act all brave but I could see the pain and exhaustion, we smiled at each other a second then turned to the now very close Strigoi, and me and Christian charged.

Everyone was in the church huddling together, my dhompire cousins Molly and Robert pacing back and forth waiting for their dad to come back (if uncle Eddie came back), they looked blank, trying to hide all there emotion, Kyle had wondered off some where with his mum aunt Sydney and dad uncle Adrian to check the place was safe. my aunt Jill was sitting with her sister aunt lissa, her two moroi kids crying next to her. and all the guardians were outside fighting. It was killing me staying In here while my family might be dying, my mama and papa, my uncles. If they died...
I walked over to my siblings who were all fighting not to cry or scream with anger, as was I. They tried hiding the fear, we all did, we were the future guardians, they come first.
We all looked at each other and started to whisper in Russian so no one should hear or understand us "do you think they will be alright?" Asked Ariana who was wearing a now very dirty white top and looking miserable "mama and papa said they're tough" said Stephan shaking a bit, poor little guy "and there are lots of them" Ariana added I took a breath, I had to keep them calm, they were all so little compared to me.
Mama had told me once that no matter how small you were you had to protect the ones you love. She told me stories about how her and aunt lissa became friends, how she protected her because they were like sisters. She told me how even though papa was bigger than her and it looked hopeless, she still tried to fight him to protect aunt lissa when they had run away. She told me that I had to protect my little brothers and sister from the bad stuff in the world and show them the good. So I took a deep breath "Guys listen, they will be fine but we need to keep everyone calm, like mama and papa said remember?" They all nodded and went their separate ways spreading out except me and Edward who didn't move "are you ok?" I asked looking at him, he was a bit shorter than me but he would be taller soon enough like papa.
even though we were all considered young we all knew what we had to do and we all understood life and death. me and Edward had seen Strigoi before, we knew they were hard to kill. We had seen the blood when we were young, before Stephan was born. It was just papa, mama, me and the twins Edward and Ariana, luckily Ariana didn't see it, she was behind mama. As soon as papa and mama saw the Strigoi killing everything they pulled all of us in the car and locked the doors. They both came back a long time later with a few scratches but... That was just one not an army. "Kristina, no!" he shout whispered still speaking Russian "I'm not ok, what if mama or papa..." He trailed off looking at the ground. I had no words of encouragement left for my ten year old brother, nothing I could have said would have helped, we both knew what might happen. I pulled him to me holding him tight, I let a few tears fall as did he, our strength weakening for a moment. I loved my family, I would protect them like mama had said. I pulled back and we both wiped away our tears so no one saw "they are brave and strong Edward, they would want us to be the same" he nodded then paused "kris?" I let a sad smile out "yes" he smiled a little but I could still see the pain behind his eyes, like looking through a really dirty window, you could still see through it but it was hard "your a really good sister... and you- your going to be a awesome guardian for Isabella " he turned and started walking over to some of his cousins to calm them "you to" I turned and walked over to izzy and ann.

Christian didn't do much but it distracted them, being on fire would distract me to. The rest of the guardians charged with me while Dimitri got christian and Eddie in the car out of the way from Strigoi. Three of them ran towards me, they knew I was a threat so I lost my usual edge, I would have to be careful and being this exhausted and sore wouldn't help at all. The closest one was a middle aged looking woman. She would have been pretty if it weren't for the usual Strigoi features. I lunged at her, my stake lined up with her chest. But a hand grabbed my wrist. It was an older looking Strigoi, his hair was gray streaked with black and his eyes would have looked a nice blue if it Weren't for the red ring around them. I tried to pull out of his reach but he didn't move an inch. In a split second I flung my leg out and tried to kick him but he dodged the move gracefully. i kept fighting but it did nothing and to make it worse the Strigoi looked amused, He was fast and strong. His grip got tighter and tighter on my wrist causing me to drop my silver stake with a clatter to the pavement, I let out a little yelp as I crumpled to the ground from the pain in my wrist, i could feel his breath as he inched closer to my neck, the minute I tried to fight the other two held me back. I started seeing spots in my vision, my eyes watering from anger and pain and then I heard the snap followed by the blood curdling laughs and my scream sounding far away.
Please tell me if you like the story. I will update either tomorrow or the next day :)
