Damon gave Krystal one last look, she gave a smirk, he could see a flame burning in her eyes, the front door was busted in and glass from the windows could be heard shattering over the hardwood floors and suddenly the stereo speakers thrummed to life shaking the surrounding walls. Krystal had the desert eagles ready to fire, as soon as she saw movement she began to shoot. Her father's words ran through her head,
"Do not waste a bullet, you don't pull the trigger until you find a mark, one that will take your opponent down."
She was always so level headed with guns when she had the right music to listen to and it seemed her brother had still remembered her favorite kind of music.
You don't feel the pain
Too much is not enough
Nobody said this stuff makes any sense
We're hooked again
Krystal could feel it running through her veins, it was like a drug, a drug that would help her, to push her to survive through this battle.
Point of no return
Seeing how the buildings burn
Lights up the night
Such pretty sight
There was no backing out of this now, the point of no return had passed hours ago. Krystal took her knives out, she jumped in the air when she had a group of guys in one spot and she twirled around, each slice she made was perfect, hitting some main artery on the men, Damon fired, he was being her backup, making sure to give them a bullet or two for good measure. Once she assessed the situation. She grabbed Damon,
"Lets go," Krystal taking the lead, he followed her to the garage.
Adrenaline keeps me in the game
Adrenaline you don't even feel the pain
Wilder than your wildest dreams
When you're going to extremes
It takes adrenaline
Krystal got on the Duccotti Monster Star, the garage door was rising, Damon jumped in the Mustang and started it up. He followed Krystal, he took out his phone,
"Hey Liz, yeah, we are headed your way, follow the gunfire and look for us, we are in a Mustang and a Duccotti Monster Star," Damon explained. He threw his phone into the seat, a bullet took off the left side mirror,
"Fuck!" Damon flinched.
You don't feel the pain
Sail through an empty night
Its only you and I who understand
There is no plan
Krystal fell back to ride beside Damon,
"Keep going straight, that's where the docks are, don't worry, keep your same exact speed, I'll keep them at bay," Krystal shouted over the two engines sounds, she fell back behind the Mustang. Damon could already feel that same drug coursing through his veins, keeping him alive, adrenaline was the one thing that could keep any person alive in a situation like this, it kept them on their toes, and kept them thinking one step ahead and easier to dodge the trouble.
Damon could hear the gunshots behind him but they weren't on the road anymore, he glanced up and saw they had moved to the roof now, and there was a lot more of them, Krystal was running roofs. He glanced behind him, he could see headlights, a bullet whirled by his ear,
"Shit," Damon growled, wolves were passing by him,
"Tyler's buddies, Liz must be back there," Damon smirked, Krystal threw a few grenades, taking out some of the guys, leaving the buildings in a broken, burning hole. All the while the song kept playing in her head spurring her on, encouraging her to push on through this war.
Get closer to the thrill
Only time will kill
What's in your eyes
Is so alive
Another grenade thrown and a few more men go flying. Krystal kept running, taking out men with bullets from her desert eagles, yeah sure the first few times when she was younger they had a kick to them, she was strong enough to keep from busting her nose with them after shooting one, but just barely, now she had the strength to shoot them without hard kick to them. She saw she was running out of roof, but she also knew with how close Damon was if she stayed at her current speed Damon would be passing by and she would land in the car.
Run through the speed of sound
Everything slows you down
Krystal turned around and flew backwards off the building while still shooting at the guys, she landed roughly in the passenger's seat in the Mustang on her back with a groan.
And all color that surrounds you
All bleed into one
All the things you really need
Just wait to find the speed
Then you will achieve
Escape velocity
Damon smirked,
"Nice landing, you okay?" Damon asked, Krystal laughed a little, still on her high of adrenaline, she was a little dizzy but shook it off,
"How about you ask me when this is all over?" Krystal asked.
"Fair enough, what's the game plan now?" Damon asked,
"Follow the wolves, shield up!" Krystal commanded. The car raised the roof up accept it was all metal and latched into place.
"When the wolves find the right place we are going to bail out, Casper is going to drive right in as a distraction, if you can get to any of them without getting caught do it, and whatever you do, don't get bit," Krystal remembering a bite from the werewolves would mean a vampire's death sentence unless Klaus was willing to give them his blood.
The wolves finally crashed into the building, Krystal programmed the commands into Casper by hand, she and Damon rolled out and got into the shadows of the building. Damon got on his phone to Liz,
"Liz, turn in behind the Mustang, do not follow the Mustang, we are here outside," Damon whispered. He saw her SUV turn in front of them, Liz came around the front,
"Who is this?" Liz asked,
"I'm Krystal, I'm sorry to involve you and your daughter in this," Krystal apologizing.
"We wanted to help, now what's the plan?" Liz asked, Krystal looked at the building,
"We jump up and go through the rafters, how good are you with that gun?" Krystal changing out her clips,
"Do you have to ask, I'm the sheriff," Liz explained,
"Good, if you don't think you have the shot don't risk it," Krystal looking at both of Liz and Damon,
"Alright," they agreed,
"If I get caught, risk the shot, but please, not the heart," Krystal smirked,
"Oh, I see, you're a…" Liz being interrupted,
"Yeah, you need to stay up high and out of sight, you are human, we are not risking your life," Krystal seriously, Liz nodded,
"Alright, Damon jump with Liz up to the hole," Krystal seriously, Damon jumped with Liz up to the rafters. Damon looked out but Krystal was gone, Krystal went through the front door, assessed the situation and hid, she took a breath, then shot at the men away from Caroline and Tyler and her sister, Damon took a shot and Liz as well.
"I know you are here, come out, come out little mouse," the d-bag shouted, he cut Cadence's wrist, blood streaming out, Krystal could smell its strong alluring, coppery scent, her eyes were veining out, she couldn't control her hunger, she swiftly moved, she knocked her sister down and went for the d-bag, Damon and Liz opened fire on the rest while Krystal had the d-bag down, they got most of them what the werewolves didn't get.
Damon jumped down and swiftly moved to Tyler and Caroline, he was able to untie them but couldn't get to Krystal or Cadence, the d-bag was already on his feet, and had Krystal held up by her throat, a stake was sticking deep in her abdomen, she struggled to get air into her lungs, Damon thought that they were caught and the way Cadence had looked all cut up and bleeding out, she wasn't going to make it much longer.
"Do something Krystal," Damon gritted out in a very low whisper, the song played through her head again, she suddenly stopped gasping and went limp, he threw her to the ground.
Too much is not enough
Nobody gave it up
I'm not the kind
To lay down and die
Krystal swiftly pulled out the stake, the d-bag turned around with his gun, she flipped onto her feet throwing a kick into the d-bag's face and sending him flying and landed on his back. The adrenaline still coursed through her veins, she wasn't going to stay conscious for much longer, but she had to see this through.
Adrenaline keeps me in the game
Adrenaline you don't even feel the pain
Wilder than your wildest dreams
When you're going to extremes
It takes adrenaline
She wasn't afraid of him anymore, he wasn't the nightmare that would keep her awake anymore, because of the adrenaline and the excitement that this was soon over she didn't feel the pain from her wounds anymore, but she needed to feed, and she would, she would make him suffer, she swiftly walked over to him. While she was dealing with the d-bag Damon rushed to Cadence, Liz shot the men that went after Damon, he didn't focus on anything around him, his goal was getting Cadence to swallow enough of his blood that would heal her injuries.
"You have to drink, it will heal your injuries," Damon seriously as he held her up so she could drink his blood. Cadence drank his blood, after a few minutes she grabbed a weak hold on Damon's wrist and drank from the bite from Damon's hand and slowly pulled away. Damon turned to watch Krystal take her revenge on the sorry excuse of a man that tormented her life, and he knew she was going to draw it out.
Adrenaline screaming out your name
Adrenaline you don't even feel the pain
Wilder than your wildest dreams
When you're going to extremes
It makes adrenaline
Krystal kicked the gun from his hand,
"You are getting off easy compared to the hell you put me and my family through," Krystal hissed out, she kicked him in the ribs, she heard a few break, he was now on his knees and hands spitting up blood, he just laughed at her, his teeth covered in his own blood.
"You took everything that matter from me, my parents, my sister, you even took my own life," Krystal giving him more swift kicks to his stomach and side.
"I made your life better, you should be thanking me," the d-bag grunted out as more blood came oozing out of his mouth.
"No, you never loved me and you wont steal anyone else's life from this world, now, now, all that blood going to waste, waste not, want not," Krystal sinking her fangs into his throat. She slowly sucked his blood from his body, making him live every ounce of the pain.
You don't even feel the pain
You don't even feel the pain
I'm going to extremes
There is nothing in between
You don't even feel the pain
You don't even feel the pain
I'm going to extremes
She jerked away from his neck, he was still alive, still writhing in pain on the inside, he couldn't move, she stared in his eyes,
"All my pain, the pain of losing my family, of my loved ones, dies with you," Krystal's eyes pouring tears, she took her desert eagles and filled the man with lead. When her clips were empty she fell to her knees and let out an ear piercing scream, indeed it was the first step of letting go of all the pain she had endured from him. She passed out within two minutes of screaming, when Damon walked out carrying Krystal it was pouring rain, and the rain begin to wash away the pain.
