Some time to spare Ashley's POV
In the end we contacted Dimitri the next day and we all went to search for her. Before we left though, Chris had to explain something to me. He pulled me aside while everyone was getting ready. His eyes were so determined when he started talking to me.
"Ashley, I don't think that you should go with us?" I tilted my head down to look at him.
"Why? Is it because I will get in the way? Cause I know that I can help in this." We remained silent and for a long time I thought that he wouldn't answer. This made me begin to get really angry. Silence like this always made me angry. This anger raged me and I pushed away and began to walk away from him.
"Fine I will go with Dimitri and I am going to go either way." I kept walking until I got stopped by Chris. He put his hand on my shoulder and pulled me back. Also he turned me around to face him. He made me look into his eyes. Then a huge throbbing pain surged into my chest making me wince. I took my hand and pressed it onto my chest. I guess Chris saw this and told me to calm down. When I didn't listen he began to shake me to get my attention. When that didn't work he slapped me and that put me in shock from the sudden blow.
The whole time when he was doing this the pain kept getting larger and larger. I didn't know what would have happened if Chris would have stopped me.
"Are you OK?" he asked me as I was rubbing my left cheek.
"Yea, I don't know what happened just now." After some talk with Chris about this I was able to go. I guess that Chris wanted to keep an eye on me after what I had just done. So I rode in a black convertible with Chris and two of his friends. I wasn't quite sure where the other two at the time but I didn't think about. The only things I thought about on that car ride was Vanessa and what had just happened just before we left. The car ride took about two hours until we came upon a white mansion. There was vines crawling on the side of the house.
We parked in the driveway and all four of us came out. Another car parked right behind us and out came out Dimitri and the other two members of Chris' group. Chris went through the plan with his group one more time. The plan was that we were going to split up. Since there were seven of us there will be one group of three. That group is going to go in the rear end of the house and the group of four is going in the front of the house. Now was the time to split up. I went with Dimitri and Emily in the back of the house. We jumped over a couple fences and soon we were in the backyard.
Both Dimitri and Emily seemed really quiet while we did this. I guess now wasn't the time to talk about it though. We ran up to the door and as soon as we got there Dimitri kicked the door open. All of us ran inside and examined our surroundings. Everything looked like it would normally be for a house except that there were people coming at us.
Dimitri pushed me behind him just before he lunged at one of them. Emily did almost the same and I was left standing in a war zone. Dimitri snapped the neck of one of them while Emily was trying to put the other one into a headlock. Dimitri came up by her and took the guys head and eventually also snapped his neck. After a couple of minutes it was over and we were moving once again. We went by stairs and ran up them. There we met up with the rest of the group and started calling names like Vincent and Vanessa. I was the one who yelled Vanessa.
We came up to a hallway and the door closest to us was what Chris kicked open. There was nobody inside, just a bedroom. So we went to the next room and did this until we came upon the third door. Dimitri decided to kick this door and when he did wood blew everywhere. There in the center of the room was a guy with blond hair and green eyes. He wore a white suit and a smirk curled upon his lips. We all walked inside and there right next to the door was Vanessa. She looked so fragile and broken. Also she looked like she was in a daze.
Just then Chris yelled at Dimitri to help get Vanessa out of here. He did so and ran up to her. I on the other hand went to help Chris out with taking the beating out of this Vincent guy. Chris walked up to the guy and lifted him up by his suit. He was yelling at him about all sorts of things while Vincent kept that same smile on his face. That was when I ran up to him and punched him right in the jaw line. This seemed to put a look of shock on that man's face for a brief moment. I looked back to see that Dimitri was gone and he took Vanessa.
Deciding that we were done here I was about to tell Chris that we should leave. I also started hearing footsteps going throughout the house. But I wasn't able to tell him because as soon as I looked over at Chris I saw a death scene happen right in front of my eyes. Chris had jabbed his hand into that man's chest and quickly he pulled something out of it. I wasn't able to see because I heard a scream from outside of the room. Quickly I ran out of the room and i saw Dimitri holding Vanessa bridal style. I wasn't sure where I had heard the scream from but I followed it. Deciding that it was nothing I walked back inside that room only to see that man on the ground with a big hole in his chest. There was something red on the desk that was behind him.
I looked over at Chris to see his right hand bloody. Oh my gosh, Chris is a murderer. Before Chris got a chance to say something I ran out passed Dimitri and ran out of the house. I ran in the woods and after a while I stopped by a tree and slumped down on the tree. How could this have happened? I though about this for a moment and my emotions changed from shock into anger and that's when that pain from earlier returned. I didn't know what to do and I was all alone. This got so bad that I managed to black out and have a dream of me being a wolf and attacking people.
