Guest (1): yeah…I am keen on it to. its been fun writing it out. 😊

MoonMama89: well wait no more and thanks I really wanted to make it descriptive enough to not only capture the audience, you all, but to put you in it right there without getting lost in the scene. Its why I'm becoming very meticulous for the last few cuase there's so much action going on it needs it. And oh wow that's so sweet. Diamond has some things to get past and that will determine what happens with him. The elder will be back in shortly, I just don't want him in the actual fight till its his time, there's more going on with him. Glad you were so into the story that you didn't see it. Lol but now you get more action!

SerenityMorrison: great! 😊

4 reviews that's nice, were getting down to the end here, lots of fighting coming up ahead so please read and review! I cant wait to read your thoughts. 😊

A vampires forbidden love ch.22

Diamond POV

I couldn't focus, couldn't move. The constant gun fire from the automatic weapons were too loud and to numerous for me to deal with. I couldn't face it. I watched how everyone was focused on the fight. I looked at Mamoru as he took off to go fight by her side. Something that I found somewhat more reasonable but they were somewhat fighting together as a team and not just straight in front of her. This wasn't what life was supposed to be like.

I couldn't deal nor tolerate how this world worked. Granted I saw it from the old perspective of yesteryear and from the focal point of the vampire's perspective and all I wanted was to go back home. I wanted to slip back into that young man that could still run to his father for advice…but alas I couldn't. I bolted before that Mamoru could stop me as he left off but not before the raven- haired Rei girl could.

She was faster than anything I'd ever seen so far. I knew it was due to age. The older a vampire was the stronger and faster they were to. She had a blade at my neck before I could even breathe next. I had to hold myself back from snapping at her as I would have if it were my era but we weren't, "The hell do you think you're doing?" she snapped. In my day she would have been slapped for acting as she did.

Her hair was fanned out around her. Without a care in the world as she looked at me with fire in her eyes. I had seen a similar fire in Serenity's to. A passion. However she had a mean streak to her that made me want to backhand her. It's what my father would have done and his father before him to keep the women in line. The blade cut in a little bit making me want to act out but the gun fire was startling me to much. I felt too jittery.

My heart was pounding and suddenly I felt far too out of my league. Hell I never even joined any armies back home. These monsters were in a war and I was in the middle of it. All of this because I had defended my now battled betrothed over two hundred years ago and this is where it got me. Turned into a monster like her and now in their war as she stupidly thought she could beat this older Lycan.

She was a woman what made her think she could do it? Just like this one in front of me. Blade out. She didn't look like much to deal with so I went to grab for it when she punched me with the handle causing me to clutch my nose wondering if it was broken as she grabbed my arm and pushed me back with more force than I gave her credit for to turn me around and watch candidly the fight happen before my eyes. Vampires and Lycan's around killing each other, protecting their own and just trying to survive.

I hated that I saw their humanity in their actions. Seeing them protect each other and sacrifice for one another was something monsters weren't supposed to care about. It was to much of a human thing to do. It showed to me that Serenity…Usagi I should say, was right about it all and I hated that. I hated that I was in this and I hated that my once betrothed was like a completely different person now…either that or I never really knew her. That thought made me wonder what else she'd been like before all of this.

All I had wanted was to marry her as we were, human, and spend a life together with her barefoot and pregnant. I'd come home from my work with father, she'd greet me with a kiss as we'd sit down for dinner that our maid would have cooked then she'd rub my feet as I watched the fire crackle before taking her in bed as I saw fit at the end of the night. That's how it was supposed to be this…I looked out then away as I watched this harden Sere – Usagi fight and fight well.

It was unbecoming of her and to see how well she was at it made me want to turn away from it, she wasn't the same girl I once knew. She wasn't some sweet little timid thing that I thought she was back then, she was strong and independent…she was braver than me and stronger than me and I hated it. She made me feel like less of a man and bruised my ego without having done a single thing to be besides be there for me and that made it worse.

Having her there to help me in the beginning was nice. It was a familiarity that I needed to adjust that much as I used the presence to help calm the raging blood lust within. To help me not freak out that over two hundred years had passed and keep the anxiety away. Then the more I saw of her the more I disliked who she was. The more I disliked what she had become. I wasn't a hundred percent sure it was because of them though.

I mean not only was she a monster, but she was a crafty and intelligent one. I remembered seeing her out with her father on occasion, but I never thought anything of it…till now. I had a strange feeling that my preferences in how she were too be my wife would have been met with disagreement from her. She was dangerous now and I knew in some instances that she could probably kill me but I would give her a mercy kill before she could ever try anything on me that much I would say.

That's when Rei said, "No! You look!" she made me watch as Usagi fought hard against the Lycan's down below. How she deliberated with that mean looking Lycan that appeared older than the rest. "You see what Usagi does for us all?" She snapped, "She fights for us. She risks life and limb for all of us just as we do her!" she then pulled me up and away from view, "Now you may have been some high and might dick at one point in your old life but guess what…" I was fuming with her now.

In my time if a women rose her voice to you she'd be slapped for speaking out of turn and here it was this dark haired bitch yelling at me like I was the fowl one. "It's not 1800-whatever anymore. Its 2018 and this shit is real and it's happening NOW!" She slapped me hard upside my head, "Get your act together because like it or not we need you to decimate them just like you did that village so long ago." Memories of that time still haunted me.

My victims faces had been blurred back then but over time they haunted me in that prison. I couldn't escape them. They tormented me till they to eventually faded away. Theirs faces didn't but the torment of their souls that found me did. When even that stopped the loneliness became my greatest hate. At least with the tortured souls I had someone there in a sense to pass the time by…but after they left it was madness.

I had been driven to it nearly when they came for me. When I heard them coming I used every morsel of strength left in me to jump up and out. Then as I saw Damon my anger returned full strength till I saw my Serenity. Then when she introduced me to the new world I got a sense of fear and the torment returned a bit especially with what she asked of me. I hated what I did to those people in the village. I had gone to them for help but had lost control again and started to attack them. Though I knew that these victims would not haunt me.

These Lycan's had who knew how many victims themselves and deserved their deaths. I just didn't think I could do it. "You have to do this or else we are all dead and even if you don't give two shits about us think about Usagi. Or at LEAST think about the humans that are beyond this war." That got my attention as I looked at Rei. "We fight to keep this from those innocent people who shouldn't know of our existence."

I would have agreed in fullness but if the humans knew the vampires might be extinct and that was something I wouldn't mind however anyone within a radius of this fight would be killed and that was definitely something I wanted to avoid. Then I thought on Usagi. I looked over and saw her talking to that Yamamoro guy she mentioned to me. The older Lycan. I still cared for her despite everything and I disliked that now. She wasn't my Serenity anymore and was not only in league with these fanged creatures but loved one to.

I wasn't blind to it, no I hated their relationship. They seemed so in tune with one another that I felt this overpowering wave of jealousy take over and my father always taught me that jealous was a weakness that you couldn't let be exploited lest you give the woman power over you something he refused to let happen to himself. I decided to do as Rei asked but not for them but for the humans out there that could potentially wipe out the monsters of the world out there and once I had the chance see if my Serenity was still in Usagi and if not…

Usagi POV

I just barely got back to Mamoru and Rei when I saw Diamond looking at me oddly yet pensively as Damon ordered through the com's, "Usagi send out the second wave and get Diamond's ass into gear. We're running low on ammo!" knowing we were already limited on the munitions I wasn't to shocked. Damon looked like he was having a field day taking out all the Lycan's that seemed to be a part of the first wave.

There were just that many Lycan's. They were filling up the estate quicker than we could eliminate them. It was almost as if they had two full 'coven' fills of help while we had merely one and some help from the other coven. It's why Diamond was our Hail Mary. We were honestly out-numbered and becoming outgunned as well. I think that order was Damon's way of admitting that in a way I was unfortunately right.

I saw where he was fighting and saw the angered defeat that we'd need Diamond but also saw the resolution to get the fight won for our survival. His ego and pride meant a lot to him but self-preservation and the need to ensure our kind survived luckily out-weighted that. We needed Diamond. I turned to the man in question and said, "We need you now. Use whatever you need to, to motivate yourself to vamp out and take them out. We're right here with you." I held my blades steady as Diamond looked to be focusing on the fight going on.

He nodded and looked to be trying to transform but couldn't seem to hold it. He needed motivation but what was that? "Diamond what made you go to that village?" I asked. Looking for any reason that we could use to get him to lose control. It seemed the fight had turned our golden ticket into a fear filled coward. He appeared to be gathering himself. He looked at me, "I went for help for your family." He responded.

"But I was still to under the blood lust to stop myself." He admitted with anger. "Blood…" I murmured remembering his description of how he killed my family. The scent of blood and the sight of it. While vampires and Lycan's alike were dying and bleeding most of it was on the first floor where he wasn't. I needed to provoke his lust for blood. I looked back over the edge of the railing and came up with a plan.

"Focus on where I am and follow your bloodlust when it comes out. Let it guide you. Do that and you won't have any problems transforming." I motioned for Mamoru and Rei to follow suit as I gave the order, "Second wave…lets show these fuckers what were made of." and jumped over the railing with ease. I landed as they did with thuds as we began to take apart the Lycan's within range.

Using my knives I slit ones throat and as it poured and sprayed against the nearest Lycan's there I grabbed it and put it on display for Diamond to see from where we were. I saw the look in his eyes grow bloodshot in seconds flat as his transformation took hold. "Get your ass down here and help us!" I screamed before pulling the sword out and whipping it around to slice through two menacing looking Lycan's that were aiming to tear me in half.

I ended up cleaving them in near half as they approached me. I wasn't about to go down now. I watched as we all were fighting. Mamoru had my back as Rei was within range and tossed me another knife to deal with the ones that got to close for the sword to be effective. Not enough space to get a full swing on still does damage but doesn't kill…not unless it's the perfect positioning and angle to do so with. I swung around and stabbed one in the eye that went in deeply enough to kill the hairy beast as it had tried to kill Mamoru.

He nodded his thanks then pointed the gun near me and emptied his last two rounds from his hand gun into one that came at me from behind. It fell to the ground as two more jump over that one's dead form. I ran and blurred the extra few yards as the two leaped for my body. Dropping down to my knees I slid on the marble floor and bent over backwards as I slashed the blade across their stomachs. I went so fast barely a droplet of blood hit me as their guts and a ton of blood came pouring out as their bodies hit the floor.

They dropped dead right as they hit Mamoru's feet as he stabbed a blade into another one that tried to kill Rei as she was reloading her last clip. Damon was right we were running low if not almost out. Then out of nowhere I was grabbed from behind and pulled so hard I was flung back into the wall on the far side taking me from Mamoru and Rei's side. I hit the wall with such force it cracked and compressed inward. Admittedly that knocked the wind out of me temporarily as I took a breath.

I looked up to find an ambitious looking Lycan staring me down. Its toothy grin at having me as a tasty treat clear as day before I saw out of nowhere Diamond jump on its back and bite into its neck. It was scary as it was funny to see Diamond jump on the hair beast and bite down. The Lycan's were easily 8-10 feet tall and Diamond was barely six so it was a sight to see as he took a knife and stabbed it into its head killing it.

I saw the look in his eyes as he saw me, "Thanks…there's more coming." He nodded as we all fought now. Diamond in the midst helping to take them down with us. The battle was finally looking to be evening out. Damon took care of the Lycan's that were trying to make their way into the rooms on the second floor. I just hoped that our elder was safe elsewhere and not in the midst of this.

I looked over and found Mamoru driving his last knife into the skull of a Lycan's head. The death hit quick but the knife got stuck getting embedded in the skull. He had no more weapons that I could see. I went to his aid as he used his hand to hand combat skills to start snapping necks when he could. In one move that I found to be something Rei obviously taught him. He grabbed a silver looking rope from her side and swung it to wrap around another Lycan, jumped over it ensuring it was ensnared before yanking hard snapping its neck.

Getting the silver, now identified as the flexing metal rope we had, a personal favorite of Rei's to, he got it off that one to wrap it around another only to have that beast jump on him. He slammed a nearby dropped blade into its chest as it kept trying to slash as him with its claws. I ran over and leaped over the dick Lycan, grabbing it by the hair on its back and some of its skin as I pulled with my might to throw it into a nearby wall.

The move made the Lycan dent the wall as it dropped to the ground. Getting back up and snarling at me for the intrusion as it went to attack only for a few well placed bullets in its head stopped it. It went down before it got within swiping range of us. I looked back to see Mamoru with another gun emptying those few bullets into it before swinging it around to use the hand of it as a blunt weapon of choice.

Nodding at the good idea and for the save the three of us were then joined by Minako and Makoto as they tossed more knives at us. "Sorry were late. Got held up." Minako mentioned as she looked battered herself. Makoto looked battle hardened to but alive and well none the less. I had been trying to avoid using the sword to much as I didn't want it to get lost so it was still, after I put it back from the last kill, on my back.

As if by magic nearly a dozen of them surrounded us. I took two seconds to look over and see Diamond plowing through his own mini horde as we were. His blood lust as he not only fought but feed was definitely putting a dent into the problem. They did try to jump him but his appetite was proving to be a little too insatiable for even them. In fact there were two that tried to bail and got pulled back in by him. It was like he was a super vampire or something with the blood lust raging through him.

Refocusing I watched Mamoru took a step in an effort to protect me, not that I needed it, by slamming a half a silver blade, broken off from another blade is what it appeared to be, into the Lycan's chest as it moved to fast for him to hit the head. He then jumped up with his advanced abilities, wrapped his legs around its neck and chest as it crumpled under the momentum and fell leaving Mamoru under it as he pulled the blade back out and slammed it into its head effectively kill it before another move could be made.

I could honestly watch him fight all day he looked so…I mentally berated myself for finding his fighting that Lycan to his effort to protect me arousing. This wasn't the time for that. I had lost sight of Yamamoro as he had slithered off behind more of his troops once more. That two bit piece of shit wouldn't get away with this. I was determined to drive this sword through his heart before using it to chop his head off.

That's when we heard a loud howl that echoed throughout the whole estate. The painful death that the Lycan was slowly going through was evident enough to silence a decent portion of the fight that had even half the horde that came in looked over as well as ourselves as Diamond literally tore the head off another bloodied beast leaving its remains there for all eyes to see as the raging bloodlust looked to be anything but sated.

In fact looking over by Diamond I noticed that there was nothing but blood and body parts strewn about. It was as if he were standing in a mass grave of his own making. I looked at the Lycan in front of me a few feet away then back at the mess on the floor. I wasn't even sure there was a full Lycan body in the whole pile. The one in front of me looked skeptical about going over there now. Taking advantage I pulled the sword out and cut its head off in seconds flat before sheathing it.

"Should we even ask?" Mamoru asked as he and Rei looked at me then to Diamond as he was dripping in blood and guts. His fingers were dripping with blood. The more I looked at him the more I saw how coated he was in the enemies guts. You'd think he bathed in it. He was tearing them apart now with his hands. His weapons look long ago embedded in the first few Lycan's as he seemed to prefer a more animalistic approach.

At least in his blood lust…It was almost as bad as the village all those years ago. His eyes looked red as hell. His once near white hair looked dyed red, no joke and his clothes were covered in blood, guts and in some areas fur. Briefly I wondered if Diamond was even still in there as the shock died out and several more Lycan's jumped him. For a moment I wanted to go help him out of instinct but watched as he tore through them.

They hadn't counted on dealing with a vampire that wanted to feed on them in return. It was something new for them to deal with as an enemy. After all we weren't feeding on them nor were they really feeding on us. It was just killing. He was feeding. Diamond was tearing through them like a starved animal that hadn't feed in years which in his case was utterly accurate. I looked around and found that he was actually doing as requested.

He was making a huge dent in the fight which made me more confident in our win now especially as the more that tried to kill him the more that would up dead and butchered by his brutality. Some part of me wondered however if he was pouring out all of his anger and hatred into the blood lust to feed it to give him the strength and adrenaline needed to continue his rampage. "No." I stated simply as we continued to fight. I saw Damon jump down from where he was at, bloodied up himself as he killed one coming for me.

"Your welcome." He muttered before looking over at the body parts pile Diamond was in the middle of. They were starting to pile up and it was becoming more and more noticeable to everyone just what he was capable of. Though at this point I wasn't to sure that was a good thing or not. "I'll admit I had severe doubts about this plan but…" he looked over as I did as Rei cried out in frustration in killing another.

The three of us looked over to find her bloodied as we were and stabbing a Lycan in the face repeatedly, "Next time bitch don't grab my hair!" she screeched at it as she finally stabbed it in the head viciously before getting up and looking at us. She looked deranged in all honesty but her light up eyes definitely indicated her anger, "I don't like my hair being grabbed by those things!" she snapped. We didn't say a word.

Unfortunately it provided a deadly distraction as Minako shouted, "Get the fuck off of her!" we looked over to find Diamond having decimated so many to be attacking other vampires. All of a sudden our ally seemed to turn enemy within him as he attack Makoto viciously, tearing into her throat just before Minako stabbed him in the shoulder before he flung her off of him. Makoto given a chance to fight back slammed her foot hard enough into Diamond to send him careening into the open doorway.

Mamoru helped her up with Minako looping Makoto's arm around her for support, "What the hell happened?" I demanded trying to figure out what happen in the few seconds I took my eyes form him. "That fucker tried to go after another vampire. I though it was merely a mistake considering the amount of Lycan's he'd killed but when the vamp lite her eyes at him for recognition he killed her anyways." That's when we looked over and saw Damon's red headed mistress bloodied on the ground.

She hadn't been much of a fighter but she did try to help in the war. "Diamond what the hell is your problem?" She snapped, "She's one of ours!" I yelped. Had the blood lust confused him? I watched him get up as he said, "One of yours, NOT one of mine." He muttered as two vampires backing up to shoot at more Lycan's up top were attacked by Diamond as well from behind leaving Minako to go tear him off of them. "Shit!" I cursed as I found the flaw in my plan. His hatred was now attacking us to.

"Diamond whether you hate us or not isn't excusable to attack US!" I yelled as Minako slammed her fist into his face. He hit Minako hard enough to send her flying into the body pile making me wonder how strong his raging blood lust made him. "This wasn't supposed to be our fight Serenity." He slowly walked towards me as I barely turned to Mamoru, "Get Makoto - chan back now." He complied as Minako snuck up right behind him and attacked.

She was trying to pin his arms down as he used the combat moves I taught him to disengage her from him. "Your supposed to be on our side!" She screamed as he flung her off his back and in front of him. This wasn't supposed to happen. I was stunned. It was as if Diamond had snapped and perhaps he had because this – fuck! He went to attack her when instinct took over and in a blurring speed I hadn't known I had I plowed him over giving Minako a chance to get up and out of the line of fire.

I kept blurring not wanting to stop as I pulled my sword out and killed every Lycan in my path as several more came after me. I used my anger at myself for what had just happened to whip the sword out and slice through them all. A path of blood was left in my wake as I finally stopped. I felt the wind around me finally stop as if catching up with how fast I had moved. Diamond looked at me now.

I looked back over at him and demanded, "What the hell are you doing?" whatever reply he had I didn't get to hear it as I was grabbed from behind and lifted up by the neck, "Didn't your elder ever teach you to watch your back at all times." The tone was more mocking than questioning as I felt almost like a bad child being picked up by the parent in an afterschool special. I was at least a half a foot from the ground.

Diamond watched with weary eyes but didn't nothing more as I could feel Yamamoro grab for the sword behind me. I went to use my enhanced agility to kick him but was beat to the punch when a blur came out of nowhere and knocked both me and Yamamoro apart. I looked back over and found Mamoru to be standing in front of me. A defensive position as he acted as if to take on the leading Lycan himself.

Yamamoro laughed as he said, "I would think now we both have to watch our backs." His reference to Diamond's slaughter of Damon's mistress and attacked Makoto before going after Minako. While Mamoru had his eyes on him I looked back at the bloodied Diamond, "Diamond are you with us here?" I asked wanting to know what the hell was going on with him. He looked at me, "I may be here but my heat and soul is still back there." He stated. Some of the anger lessening as his mood shifted.

However he didn't transform back from vampire form. I wondered if it was because he didn't know how or if he really didn't want to. that's when Damon came out with two double edged blades and said, "You handle your dick ex I'm going to take care of him." He referenced to Yamamoro. I didn't know what to do. Our elder had asked me to kill Yamamoro but I was also in charge of Diamond as he was my idea.

Before I could make that choice I heard over the com's our elders voice, "Take care of Diamond then go after Yamamoro." I could tell Damon rolled his eyes at it as he went to attack Yamamoro leaving Mamoru to come back to my side and for the two of us to take care of Diamond. He had decided apparently to attack anything that he deemed a monster…shockingly he didn't attack himself. "What the hell…?" Mamoru asked as did I went we saw him kill a vampire trying to talk some sense into him.

When he went after another I finally made it over and pulled him back off and away from the vamp ordering him back to killing the Lycan's. "Diamond I know you hate our kind but were all fighting together against a common enemy." I tried. His eyes so red you'd believe now that they were his actual color, "I tried to think of it that way Serenity I did…" he looked around at the bloodshed he caused.

"But at the end of the day their all monsters and saving you made me one." he blamed me for it all… "If I hadn't tried to be chivalrous this wouldn't have happened. That village, your family…" I narrowed my eyes, "Be very cautious with your next words." I warned as he looked at Minako as she glared daggers at him, "Minako go help Damon." I ordered. She saw the look in my eyes and merely nodded.

"He's mine." I remarked. That's when I told Mamoru, "You to." he looked to me in shock, "Usa - " he blanched. "Go." I looked back at him, "This was my doing now I have to pay the price." I told him. I had to be the one to make Diamond stand down and if not…I held back the tears of what I knew I might have to do if he didn't yield to me. Mamoru backed up as I focused on Diamond and how he turned to me.

Like I was the prey to his predator. "Are you seriously going to blame me for all of that?" I demanded of him. A Lycan came out after us and I stabbed it before decapitating it as he did the same with one himself, "I reasoned with myself that I had made those decisions that night but it doesn't mean I don't regret them now." That wasn't my problem. However him killing our own was no problem.

"We could have really had something Serenity…and I thought maybe in this world yeah we could try again but you're not the same girl I once knew." He was right on that front. "I had this idea in my head that you were this self-sacrificing woman that needed me to be her protector and yet here I see you need nothing." He snarled. I was stunned, "YOU wish I was a weakling?" I asked in shocked sarcasm.

"Hai. The same as you were back then only I get the strangest feeling now that you weren't like that then either." I sighed, "Not even close…you really didn't know me as well as we both thought you did." I stated as a Lycan came after me at the same time he decided to jump me making my next move a twisted one. I leaped backwards as I pulled the last knife given to me and slashed the Lycan across the throat mid air and ended up taking a punch from Diamond as he took advantage of my lack of focus.

I rolled around till I got stopped by the stairs where another vampire came to my aid prepared to use his gun to beat on Diamond only to be met with his need to kill anything that had fangs now. Diamond, as soon as the vampire was in range, in a move I hadn't known he was capable of slammed his hand through the vamp's chest coming out of the other side killing him. I looked back up in horror as the vampire dropped dead.

"Diamond don't do this! You need to stop!" I pleaded with him, trying in vein get him to stop this madness. I had a very bad feeling the blood lust had consumed all his reasoning and released all of his rage upon us. "I'm going to take as many of you monsters out as I can." I couldn't believe this. "Diamond were NOT the enemy!" I screamed as more vampires came to my aid, "NO!" they stopped. "Go continue the fight, he put a decent dent into the Lycan's but keep killing them. I've got him." I ordered.

They followed my notion and left to continue to kill more Lycan's as Diamond's blood thirst had indeed put such a dent into the numbers that we were actually looking to be a potential winning point. He had done as asked and was now ready to kill us all. "Diamond please stand down." it would be the only time I'd ever give the chance to. "So what? So you can put me back down in that hole again?" he yelled.

"To rot in that hell hole for the next two hundred years. No thanks. As soon as I kill as many of you monsters as I can I'll tell the world that you exist and take my death afterwards but then as least - " I slammed my fist into his face as he went backwards several feet. The blurred motion unseen by him as he ranted, "First off after what you just did, killing your own kind yeah you'll be back in imprisonment…you fucked yourself there." I snapped.

"Secondly You're a vampire to you stick up his ass dickhole!" I ranted myself, "I'm a vampire!" I raised my voice as the fight between Damon, Minako and Yamamoro was getting intense. The cries of pain and of furniture being broken was getting louder. I briefly wondered where Mamoru was when Diamond vaulted himself against me. Crashing into me as we hit the bottom of the steps, "YOU were the worst!" he screamed on top of me.

"HOW?!" I yelled back as I slammed my booted foot into his chest sending him backwards but this time he didn't go back to far. Instead he turned back to me as if he were not as effected by that as he would have been. "Your fucking that vampire Mamoru! You were MY betrothed and yet you allow another to bed you. You whore!" he went to slam his own fist into me so I used my abilities to jump up and avidly avoid his fist as it created a nice dent into where I once was. He was channeling his rage into his blood lust.

His hatred for what I had become was so intense it overruled his need to have my back as he was supposed to. "Times and things are different now. I haven't been your anything in two hundred years!" I argued as he continued to try and fight me. I hadn't wanted to hurt he though so I tried to subdue him. However in my trying to avoid actually hurting him he was actually trying to hurt me and I ended up missing several hits.

"Please don't make me do this." I begged him as he slammed his fist into my face. I reeled back and grabbed a knife wedged into a nearby dead Lycan and stabbed it into Diamond's leg forcing him back a few feet as I got up and a few feet of space between us. "The whole point of this fight, of freeing you was to ensure that humanity could survive and that we wouldn't be extinct." I told him.

"But your kind shouldn't exist!" he yelled as he took a few swings that I avidly avoided and punched him back on. his lack of combat did enable me to maintain that upper hand but my unwillingness to kill him and his raging need to kill us all enabled him to gain the upper hand in that area. "Our KIND has been around far longer than we both have been." He paused, "For hundreds of years before us." I told him further.

"They have been striving to protect the human world and the rest of the vampires so that the species could co-exist in peace with humans without them knowing." He walked menacingly towards me as I walked a few feet backwards as the fight continued to rage on as he wound up cornering me in a small section of the living room area Mamoru and Rei had walked out of. I saw the Lycan corpses there.

He didn't seem to care though, "I thought maybe it was possible but only if I could have my Serenity back…" that saddened me, "Diamond…" he blurred and slammed me into the wall hard enough to dent it in completely as I fell to the floor, dry wall and a lot of the wall now on my back as I struggled to get back up. I knew I needed to fight harder, I had dealt with worse before but this was Diamond.

I didn't want to have to kill him but he was essentially forcing my hand. "Please don't make me do this…" I pleaded my last time even though I said I would only give one chance. "I refuse to accept this world if the woman that was supposed to belong to me is whoring herself to a monster and accepts her monstrosity to." I looked up at him as I slowly rose to my feet. "First off I don't BELONG to anyone." Seriously!

"Mamoru and I are in love something you clearly cannot comprehend as acceptable not to mention I never BELONGED to you. Even if we had been married I would have been your wife but I wouldn't have BELONGED to you. I'm not an object!" I snapped at him as I blurred and slammed my fist into his face several more times essentially landing us back near where we were where the main fighting was.

My eyes were lite up and I slammed my fists into him hard enough to rupture a few organs given a few more hits to the same areas. I was still trying to make it so that he couldn't fight back and would have to give up and stop the killing of our kind. He was barely able to back me away at the end as he gasped for breath. "Your good Serenity…" he looked up at me briefly, "All of this is something your family never would have believed…"

That I had to admit…I never would have believed it, "But it's real and its true…" I told him as I looked around and saw the fight raging on. "You have helped save so many tonight but you killed so many innocent vampires that had never hurt a human before. they just exist as they are." Apparently however that was enough for Diamond to want to kill a vampire. For their mere existence in life.

"You really hate us that much despite that fact that you are? That I am? That everyone that has been helpful to you or give you the simplest of common courtesies? Huh?!" I snapped. He snarled, "The fact that I am? HAI! The fact that you are, HAI! The fact that there's a shred of humanity in vampires and in Lycan's – HAI! Your not supposed to be human like us!" he yelled, "Its not what we know."

He was never going to let go of that part of the past. No matter what good he saw, no matter what good we did it wouldn't matter. He prejudice would always take over. He knew he'd done wrong and was using his abilities to kill those he felt didn't belong in the world but that's not how life works. His only good thing that was going toward shim was his helping us but now that we were evened out and could handle the rest he wasn't needed anymore.

I hadn't wanted to have to kill him but I knew now that I did and I hated that I did. He had become a danger to everyone here and I couldn't have that. "You went never going to accept this were you?" I asked of him. Diamond was still bent over gasping for air from my hits or what I thought was gasping for air as he blurred himself and used more strength than I thought him capable of and slammed a blade into the underside of my rib cage.

Now I was gasping in shock and pain at the sudden strike on my person. He and I went flying back from the force of the impact several yards until we can to a skidding halt as he pressed down on the blade. Digging it deeper and deeper into me as he tried to twist it around making more blood come from the wound. "I have been killing those Lycan's all evening long but in the end it wasn't for you…no…not after I saw how you looked at Mamoru…" he twisted it further as even more blood poured out.

I had no leverage to pull it out and his weight on me only added to his advantage. "Diamond…" I begged…if he didn't let up I was going to have to kill him. It was my only way out. I saw a blade nearby and would only have one chance to reach it. "Hai, I believe you two love each other…" he began. "Which means that the only thing I had to look forward to after I decimated the monsters here was my time with you…"

I felt the knife cut into some organs making me grip the blade to avoid it from doing further damage and forget the blade I saw temporarily. He ground the blade further in. "Then I saw that look…it was one of love and I knew I'd never get that from you." He pulled the blade out as my body reacted to it wanting to get up and away but his weight was still on me and now I was weakened by the attack but still able to fight.

I didn't honestly think this would happen but as I stated earlier this would be the consequences I'd have to bear if he turned on us. I looked at him with sorrow and pity as he scrunched his face up, "Nani?" he demanded, "Gomen…." I felt tears begin to come but shoved them back down, "Because I'm going to have to kill you now…" he instead looked at me with pity, "No my dearest Serenity…" he still had the knife in hand as he prepared to kill me, "I'm going to have to kill you now…my mercy gift to you…"
