This is for Hellina-Bertinelli
Sorry I've not updated for a while but I've got my exams coming up and I suck at revision so I won't be able to update for a while, mainly during February but I'll try.
If any of you have good revision tips could you tell me because I suck at revision. And it'll mean I'll update quicker.
I don't own Underworld et cetera.
Hearing the sound of a van move hurriedly off, Fayth closes her eyes as her head hands, feeling guilty for not finding the Wolf it almost breaks her slowly beating heart to hear her friend sobbing for the loss of her daughter. Looking up at the sky Fayth sighs, 'Dawns coming.' Throwing Serra the keys to the car, annoyed at themselves and Selene for losing her. Serra wipes away her tears knowing she will be no help to her daughter burnt alive. Setting off towards the mansion in a hurry with Fayth following on the motorbike, trying not to let the sun catch up with them. They arrive back at the mansion and get inside just as the sun rises.
Walking into The Boss' quarters Artemis sits down at his order. Switching on the CCTV The Boss scowls, 'I thought she'd be older.' Knowing he couldn't show any compassion towards the girl he hardens his resolve, 'Bring her to the infirmary.'
Artemis walks out of The Boss' quarters with a bow. Choosing two guards along the way Artemis arrives at the cell holding Selene Opening the door Artemis lets the guards flow in. Turning around Selene does a spinning kick sending one of the guards flying into the wall well a rabbit punch drops another guard. Before Selene can knock-out any other guards she gets tackled by a guard and thrown to the floor while the remaining guards pile on top of her, using their numbers to subdue her.
Turning Selene over onto her back one of the guards 4 snaps a pair of steel handcuffs on her, not wanting to take a chance with the blood. Hauling Selene up the guards draw their weapons as the previously unconscious guard stands up draws his hunting knife.
Spinning to find out what all the commotion is about Artemis sees Selene about to get hurt, 'That's enough.' He growls his eyes turning cobalt blue. Turning round to face Artemis the guard with the knife scowls and pockets it. As the guards follow Artemis out the cell he signals for the guard with the knife to sort out his dead comrade.
Selene walks down the catacombs to the infirmary surrounded by guards as they follow Artemis, who keeps glancing over his shoulder at her. Entering the infirmary Selene sees The Boss who smiles at her. Her lips peel back, revealing her teeth as she hisses at The Boss, warning him to keep his distance.
Seeing Selene bearing her teeth at his master the guard, who previously tried to gut her, moves forward to hit her to be stopped by the Boss who walks over to his prisoner and grabs her chin. Her head forced upwards to look him in the eye. 'You will, be sorry you did that.' Letting go of her, one of his bodyguards brings an aluminium chair into the middle of the room, placing it on the floor, she is dragged over to it. Doing her best to resist moving Selene gets hit over the head by a guard, just as Artemis punches her in the stomach. Dazed she almost collapses on the floor, wheezing but the two guards by her side catch her and handcuff her to the chair, adding flexicuffs as an extra measure.
Walking over to Selene The Boss pulls up another chair, straddling it he faces her, she looks up with pure anger written on her porcelain features. Smiling The Boss almost laughs, going to stroke her hair she pulls back and flinches at the touch of his hand. Sighing The Boss reaches to his belt and pulls out a pair of small throwing knives. Placing one knife on the table by his side he sees her eyes widen with fright but she quickly goes back to her stone cold murderous expression. Running the knife along her throat Selene freezes scared to breath. 'All I want to know is where are the Bloods?'
Scowling Selene narrows her eyes in concentration. Using telekinesis she throws him against the back wall. Stunned, The Boss stands up, pushing his feral side back down he hits her. Her head snaps back with the force of the blow almost breaking her neck, it leaves her ears ringing. Her eyes closed she brings her head forward, wincing as she feels blood at the corner of her lips, breathing she coughs as air and blood is draw into her lungs.
Leaning close to her The Boss picks up one of his knives running it under his nose to smell it, placing it on her arm he digs it in slightly, drawing blood, 'Don't you ever do that again.'
Scowling, Selene leans forward, her teeth bared. Surprised by her courage Artemis almost objects catching himself just in time. Deciding it will be good for her to get hurt even though he likes the dhamphir Artemis shakes his head knowing she could be killed.
The Boss turns to look at his Lieutenant, disappointment showing at Artemis' feelings for the girl. Gathering up his courage Artemis walks over to The Boss, motioning for his ear he leans close to his master enabling him to whisper in his ear, 'Sir, we're not getting anywhere.'
Realising that he is right The Boss grabs a case from Artemis. Placing it on the table he unzips it. Choosing a pair of pliers he smiles, partially trying to hide his feelings about what has to happen, 'Tell me.' He commands, trying not to plead.
Looking The Boss in the eye Selene smiles her eyes filled with confusion at the pleading in his voice, 'I've got nothing to lose.' When he leans forward she finally realises what he intends to do, fear flooding her eyes she tries to cover up her feelings. Grabbing her by the chin The Boss tells Artemis to hold her still, whispering he apologises for what he's about to do. Boss jerks his head to the right signalling for them to come over. Putting the pliers into Selene's mouth The Boss grips them on one of the molars at the back of her mouth. Applying pressure to the pliers The Boss pulls, trying not to crush the tooth.
Trying not to show the pain she's in Selene lets out a small moan of pain. Fainting just as the tooth is removed, The Boss gently strokes a piece of hair out of her face.
Fayth's sitting in the kitchen of the mansion while Serra paces up and down, the length of the floor. Fayth looks up at Serra annoyed, 'Stop pacing, she'll be fine.' Standing up she warms up two mugs of blood, placing one in Serra's hand she sits down. Grabbing a map of Rochdale, Fayth runs her hand over the top. Scowling as three areas of the map start to glow red, she looks up at the window, seeing tendrils of sun still coming through the curtains she sighs as she realises there's still five hours till sundown. She realises the abandoned council building in the town is probably the most likely base for the Lycans. Pulling up the blueprints of it she spreads the prints out, repeating the spell Fayth changes it to distinguish a Vampire from a Lycan. Smiling as a blue dot shows up in a room roughly 20 by 30 feet, her heart suddenly sinks as the rest of the room turns red, 'Fuck!'
Rushing over to her Serra asks her about her problem. Fayth tells her that Selene's surrounded by Wolves so they can't go blazing in and get her out, 'If we do go in we go along here.' She outlines a path with a ball point pen.
Suddenly the front door bursts open and Luke rushes in. Deadly rays of sunshine hit Serra on her face and body, falling to the ground in pain Fayth dives for Serra dragging her out of the rays of sunlight. Shouting at the mysterious assailant Fayth tends to Serra's injuries. 'Close the damn door.'
The intruder closes the door growling at Fayth and Serra with his crossbow trained on them.
Sighing as she realises her friend should be alright she turns her attention to the intruder. Grabbing him by the neck Fayth slams him into the wall, plaster flying everywhere. Looking down he realizes that he's a good ten inches off the ground. 'Who the hell are you and what are you doing here?'
Realising that this Vampire is Selene's rescuer, Fayth, he decides to try his luck. 'I'm a friend. Kind of.' He adds as an after thought. Puzzled Fayth releases Luke and he drops to the floor, struggling to stand he gasps for breath. 'If she dies, Selene will kill you. Herself!'
Luke glances over at Serra frightened that he may of just lost his Queen to the Vampires. Turning to the exit he lays a hand on the door handle and threatens Serra and Fayth. 'You hurt our Queen and I'll kill you!'
As Luke closes the door Fayth lets out a sigh of relief. Turning around to talk to Serra, Fayth sees her collapses on the floor; running over to her, she kneels down frightened.
Crying out in pain she slowly puts her hand to her cheek, wincing Selene pulls her hand away as the pain fogs her mind. Closing her eyes she goes into a light sleep and descends to the healing web. Slumping to the side she starts to heal.
'Who was watching her?' Artemis demands, looking one at a time at his commanders, he gaze stops on one particularly unfortunate Lycan. Changing his hand instantaneously to a claw he brings it across the Lycans throat with such speed no one notices that he'd moved until the Lycans decapitated body falls to the ground quickly followed by his head. Grabbing the handle of the cell, Artemis pulls the door off it's hinges, he storms in quickly followed by his two newest commanders, eager to prove themselves. Crouching down he unlocks the manacles.
Trying not to squirm as the Lycans pick her up Selene almost winces as a hand brushes her barely healed cheek. Tensing as they accidentally bang her head against the door frame, she leaps out of the Lycans arms throwing them to the ground. She punches the shocked Artemis. Feeling a slight pain she glances down to see a knife protruding out of her hip, gritting her teeth and grunting softly Selene yanks the blade out.
Out of the cell, faintly aware of the general direction she should be heading, she sprints down the tunnel like corridor, ignoring the burning sensation in her hip she turns the corner and skids to a halt only a few feet from The Boss. Spinning around she bolts back down the passage way, only half aware that his photo's on their mansions mantelpiece. Looking back over her shoulder to check that The Boss isn't following her Selene runs straight into a Lycan. Looking up she grins sheepishly and backs away from over fifty Lycans and Werewolves, who all look decidedly too eager to rip her apart. Turning around she sees a huge albino Werewolf, no doubt The Boss, walking round the corner looking to the door to her left she darts forward. Grabbing hold of the handle she tries to open the door, panicking as The Boss closes in she yanks at the handle, pulling it off the door. Looking down at the piece of metal in her hand Selene groans slightly. Throwing it over her shoulder she faces The Boss, taking up a fighting stance she frowns as the Lycans roar with laughter.
Ignoring all the jeers Selene clears her mind and instinctively changes. Smiling slightly she waits as The Boss advances towards her.
Swinging a claw at Selene he falls forwards as she flips over his head and lands a glancing blow on his muzzle. Snarling The Boss spins around his claws scraping the side of her face.
Grimacing in pain she starts to raise a hand to her face, stopping as a drop of blood lands on her palm. Tilting her head to the side she scowls as more drops start to form a small puddle. Shaking the blood off her hand she looks up at The Boss, renewed determination glowing brightly in her eyes, raising her eyebrows a smug smile on her face she leaps forwards delivering a series of powerful blows to his face and neck. Standing back she waits for him to react in some way, any way.
Scowling The Boss shakes his head dislodging a small drop of blood from his nose and shifts back into Human form.
The Boss steps towards Selene who backs away, I am so dead. Whimpering Selene starts to hurry backwards bumping into a wall she shrinks back and weakly raises her fists.
'That will never work.'
Smiling Selene glances at his face, 'But this will.' She exclaims kneeing him in his balls. Starting to run as The Boss keels over she doesn't notice his hand snake out. Grabbing her ankle he pulls it out from beneath her. Falling to the floor she slams her hand out to steady her fall.
Yelping in agony she jumps up her wrist cradled against her chest. Raising her left and uninjured arm for combat she looks sideways at The Boss. Trying to ignore the blood running down her arm from where the bone has pierced her skin Selene whimpers as her hand shakes slightly.
'Selene, I'm…' The Boss starts taking a step towards her, his fists lowered.
Growling and hissing Selene tries to get The Boss to back off.
Suddenly remembering where he is The Boss grabs her by the neck. Hoisting her up into the air he shoves her against the wall.
Gasping for air Selene tries to grab a torch on the wall. Her vision blurring she manages to get a hold of it. The heat of the flame burning her hand she hurridly touches the touch to The Boss' body.
Catching on fire The Boss drops Selene, crawling out of the way she gasps as the bones in her broken wrist turn to molten bone. Muting a scream of pain she stares in shock as she sees her bones reknitting themselves through the almost stemmed dribble of blood, 'Oh.'
Looking up to see The Boss flailing about trying to smother the flames she starts to laugh, stopping as she sees a huge group of Lycans surge on top of him and the flames go out she smiles feeling really sheepish as ten Werewolves and Lycans sprint for her.
'Oh, crap!'
Scrambling up she darts towards the stairs. Not even getting close she falls to the ground beneath the weight of many assailants. Curling up into a ball she tries to protect her head and almost healed wrist from the rock solid blows raining down upon her already damaged and weakened body.
'Stop!' The Boss shouts pushing himself up off the ground. Blowing on the burnt flesh on his knuckles he smiles as the skin turns bright red, and slowly pales till you wouldn't know he'd just been a human torch. Walking towards Selene he smiles slightly as almost all the Lycans and Werewolves leave Selene alone. Walking forwards he grabs two Lycans who are still attacking Selene by the hair. Viciously banging their heads together he throws them to the side.
Selene opens her eyes, trying to push herself up with her rebroken wrist she falls back down. Banging her head against the concrete she looks up to see The Boss standing above her. Too exhausted to do much she winces as she lifts her head off the floor, she starts coughing, blood in her mouth she spits it out. Leaning back Selene drops her head onto the floor
Signalling for two Lycans to help her up The Boss tries to hide a sigh as Selene tries to back away from him. Viscously slapping her across the face, he smiles as blood runs from a face wound, spinning around he throws her through a wall, smiling he tries to hide his disgust at what he needs to do. Shouting at the other Lycans to get back to their jobs The Boss walks over to Selene, picking her limp body up in his arms her cradles her as he calls Artemis.
'Yes, Father?'
'I need you to do something.' he says hurrying into his quarters. Whispering a list of items to his son, he watches Artemis as he closes the door. Placing Selene carefully down on the sofa he washes his hands. Hearing a soft knock on the door The Boss tells him to enter.
Entering the room Artemis places the items on a table before washing his hands next to his Father. 'Dad,' annoyed that The Boss is ignoring her he starts again. 'Lucian, who is she?'
Ignoring the question Lucian, grabs a ball of cotton wool out of his hand. Soaking the wool in disinfectant he kneels down beside Selene. Clearing the hair out of her face he gently applies it to her wounds. Removing her combat leathers, he scowls at the extent of damage, angry with himself for getting carried away and not protecting her better. Walking into the bathroom Lucian switches on the taps and runs her a bath. Picking up the disinfectant he pours the entire bottle in. Returning to the living room he sees Artemis beside her.
Waking slightly Selene gasps as she sees two Lycans standing over, trying to escape she collapses as her wrist hit's the ground. Closing her eyes she falls into an uneasy state of unconsciousness.
