"What the fuck...why would Amelia want to me to pick her up so early? Can this day get anymore strange?"Sighing." Well it's better to get some rest I have along day a head of me."
June 5, 2003
" Kahn will you come with me and lead the other group?"
"Selene why are you still trying to find this shadow? We can't take the men out on a manhunt or 'shadow hunt'. We don't even have any proof!"
"We are not going on a 'shadow hunt' Kahn the lycans are up to something big and we need to find Micheal before they do. I need the rest of you to help because I barely escaped with my life if Micheal wasn't there to save me from drowining."
" Micheal saved you? Wow you were having an off day."
"Well I wouldn't have needed his help if a lycan didn't plunge his blade in to my shoulder causing me to bleed out! That's where you and your team will come in, just in case i'm in that situation again. Besides it's better to have extra eyes around."
" Fine, but I hope this doesn't take all night, I have preparations to do before lady Amelia's arrival."
" Our sources say that Micheal has left the coven, meaning he's back on the streets. We need to find him, so Axel ready the men we will be up for a fight especially since that Selene bitch is after him too!"
" Men let's get the weapons ready,we're going on a hunt! Be on the search for Corvin, but on the look out for death dealers. It is important for us to retrieve him, so we can bring this war to an end and us to victory!" Axel bellowed to the others who cheered and was readily carrying out his orders. Lucian was left in the room with only his thoughts that were getting darker by the minute.
" That spiteful wannabe bitch is always interfering with my plans! Viktor thinks he can replace Sonja, try fill a gap that was caused by him in the first place." Scoffing. " It will never be filled Viktor because she is not Sonja, the beautiful angel you stole from me that you killed. You had a choice to save her life, but you didn't. You chose your own daughter over vampires that could turn on you in heartbeat some whom have already. No, you have no right to be heartbroken to want her back. You didn't deserve her and her loyal kindred heart. Even when we she decided to leave with me she begged for your safety.":
"Oh Lucian it's suicide for you to leave!"
"Me, wouldn't you come?"
"That's a lot to ask for Lucian. It is hard choose between love and in love, my father and you. I would be leaving my entire family behind. Besides can you just imagine what that will bring? We will be hunted until the day we die. I would be forced to fight the vampires I have trained with for two hundred years, I would be forced to fight my father!"
"Is it fair that my family has been abused and still is being abused for hundreds of years? It's okay to keep quiet for the safety of your family, but not to fight for my family! I cannot stay here Sonja and I will not leave them behind to suffer at the hands of your father. I just don't want to lose you in middle of the turmoil, I love you. I want you to come with me so we can love one another freely, but I will be forced to leave you for the safety of my family."
Sonja was silent for a while and began to cry. She lied down on the cold stone floor of the altar, the moon bathing her naked ivory body. She thought about everything Lucian said, but was torn. She was brought back to reality when Lucian started to get his clothes preparing to leave her with her thoughts.
"Wait...don't go...I just needed time to think. Please try to understand how difficult a decision this is. I want to be with for the rest of my life because I do love you, but when I look at my family I don't see monsters. I have known them since I was a child and they have never been anything,but kind. Especially my father, he was all I had. He will not see love he will see me as betraying him, a traitor to my kind. I know what they do to your kind is not right, but think about it. If I had not fallen in love with you at such a young age I can't say for sure I wouldn't see them as filth."
"I understand that Sonja, but I will leave and it will be your decision to follow. I cannot and will not be treated like this any longer."
Again Lucian was ready to exist and again Sonja stopped him.
" Wait, I will... go with you if you promise not to hurt my father."
She looked up to see his expression beaming with joy. He came back over to her plunging his tongue into her mouth. The two lovers made love for second time that day.
"Alright the first places we'll search is Micheal's apartment humans always return to a familiar place."
"Selene I don't think Micheal would return to place where strange creatures attacked and kidnapped him."Kahn said.
"Well I think it's better to go and check than to sit here and argue about it don't you? Of course you do!" Kahn rolled his eyes.
The death dealers followed Selene into the shabby apartment until she stopped in shock. Surprisingly there was no blood, no whole in the floor, not even the dents in the wall. Michael's door was even replaced.
"Something is not right? There was fight here yesterday, when I left it was a 'bloody mess' literally."
"What do you suppose happened then? Things just don't disappear."
Just then, like deja vu the death dealers heard growls emanating from on top of the roof. They pulled their guns aiming at the roof and waited. The glass broke at the end of the hall allowing at least a nine lycans to charge at the death dealers. A couple of more poured through Michael's windows.
"Shit... let's get out of here!"
The death dealers aimed there guns at the lycans blocking the exit. After shooting down the last one they leaped through. They were stunned to see that their tires were slashed. They had no choice but to take off down the street splitting up, so they were harder to find. They knew where everyone was by the tracking device on their hand.
"Damn those filthy lycans! I should have known a dog always comes back for his bone."
Selene's thoughts stopped when she heard blood curdling scream. She ran towards it in hope of saving one of her fellow vampires. She ended up almost bumping into the rest of her team.
"Everyone looks here except..."
"Enna!" A death dealer by the name of Cai shouted.
Kahn immediately checked the tracker and found that there was one more red dot down the alley near Michael's apartment.
"That's the alley I saw that thing at." Selene whispered to Kahn.
"It doesn't matter let's go!"
With that they rushed over only to find that Enna wasn't there and neither was the lycans. There was no signs of struggle just a watch with a blinking red dot. They searched around and found nothing and no one. Selene's eyes trailed the roof tops of the buildings and she saw it.
"There it is! The shadow is on the roof!"
Everyone was confused about Selene's talk of shadows that she had to look away and direct their head towards the spot.
"Selene would stop all that nonsense there is nothing on the roof!" Kahn screamed.
"But...it...But it was just there...I saw it...I swear it was...I'm not crazy!"
"Forget it let's just get back to the coven. Be on the look out for Enna...and Michael." Kahn spoke to the rest of the team. Selene sighed and shook her head following the rest.
"Am I really going crazy?" She asked herself.
"What the hell happened!"
"We ran into a couple of death dealers at Michael's apartment."
"Damn! Well did you at least find him!" Lucian spoke to his soldiers.
"No, and that's not all. Axel is missing, we assumed he was taken by the death dealers, but there was no struggle."
Beyond on vexed Lucian stormed out going to his room.
"Don't worry Sonja, I will find him if no one else can."
Lucian fell asleep angrily thinking about vampires that day.
"I'm not crazy! I know what I saw!" Selene screamed at Kraven.
"Selene listen to what you just said: You saw a shadow on a roof, everyone else that was there saw nothing."
"I know sounds crazy, but it is what is. Since I was turned I have never lost focused on my goal in defeating those creatures. Why would I make something like this up?"
"Listen we shouldn't even be worrying about this Enna is gone. If there was no body that must mean the lycans have her."
"Okay well how explain her watch and her screaming? Only she could have gotten it off."
"The lycans forced her to by harming her, hence the scream. Look why don't just go and relax for a couple of days. I'm sure your mind wants a break even if your body doesn't."
"Ugggh... there is no point in speaking with you!"
She stormed off to her room, slamming the door.
"I'm not crazy! I know what I saw!"
Selene fell asleep angrily thinking about everything that day.
