Ana & Seb Vs Kim & Talon...Round 2 

Kim Pov         

There was something different about this handsome stranger; besides the fact that he wanted to kill her sister. Even the way he walked was graceful and slightly dangerous

"Where's your car?" He demanded once they exited the school building.

"It's the red sports car over there" Kim said pointing to the new car her dad got her last week after she caught him having yet another affair.

"Give me the keys. I can smell the alcohol in your blood. It's the only thing keeping me from draining you" Talon said holding his hand out for her keys.

Kim had no idea what he was talking about. Draining her? What does that mean? She decided not to push it and dug through her purse for her keychain. Talon snatched them from her hand so quickly she barely saw the movement.

"Can I ask you something?" She said timidly getting into the passenger seat of her car. He didn't look at her but instead ignited the engine, pulling out of the space expertly

"What?" Talon snapped

"Uh why exactly do you want to kill Ana?" Kim asked staring at the sexy man driving. His jaw ticked and his hands tightened on the wheel.

"That little bitch tried to kill me more than once. Now I want payback" he answered in a sinister tone that sent chills down her spine. Kim couldn't believe what he was saying. Loser Ana trying to kill someone? Doesn't sound like her? She would know, after all she tortured her sister for years and Ana never really defended herself.

"That's doesn't sound like her" Kim mumbled.

Talon slammed on the brakes sending her crashing into the glove box. He then forcibly grabbed her jaw with his calloused hand and peered down intensely.

"I've been with that bitch for two years! The girl you used to know is no more. Question me again and we’ll have another problem on our hands" Talon stated harshly.

Kim was shaking. A man had never scared her the way Talon just did. She wondered briefly why she even chooses to come with him. Talons dark eyes were still on her intently. He loosened his grip on her chin and began stroking her face softly.

"You and I could be good together" he said in a much sweeter tone. "What happened to your face?" He asked when he noticed the bruise hiding underneath her makeup. Kim's anger spiked remembering the fight her and Ana had last night. Maybe Talon was right and Analise has changed. The loser sure packed a punch.

"Ana did it" she bit out

"See, she's a danger to you. Is that why you want to kill her?"  Talon asked still rubbing her face intimately. The brush of his fingers caused desire to pool inside her so much she could barely focus on his words.

"Yes. I-I mean no. That's not the only reason" she stuttered attempting to break through the cloud of lust she was lost in "I'm tired of her taking from me. The things I wanted most she stole. First it was Jace and then my mother! I began resenting her; my sister. And now she's something I resent even more" Kim ended.

Her mind populated the new version of her sister. Even though she wouldn't say it out loud, Ana was attractive now. Even thinking it pissed her off! She was always to be the hot one. Now Ana wants to take that too!

"Good. Hold on to that rage you feel right now. Together we can make sure she never takes from you again" Talon had a glint in eyes that was frightening. But Kim decided she wouldn't be scared and instead embrace it.

 Acting on impulse she smashed her lips to his. Talons were so soft they couldn't be real. She would know considering how many guys lips she's felt in her life. Kim wanted more of his sweet taste. She pressed her body closer to him preparing to climb on his lap. Talon however pulled back before that could happen.

"Enough. Tell me where she is" he demanded. Kim had to shake off her frustration from him breaking the heated moment. The look on his face was determination. No signs of a lustful guy that wants her. He must just be really good at hiding his feeling. Or really determined on finding Ana

"Last night she was staying at a motel outside of town, next to the woods." Kim told him. A slow smile crept onto his face. Talon completely broke contact and started the car back up again. He sped down the road on a mission to get his revenge. Kim watched the sexy dangerous man she was now plotting with.

No turning back now.

She wanted Talon like nothing she wanted before. If it takes killing Ana to have him she was more than willing to do it.

Talon was dark…

Sexy…

 In Ana's case deadly…

 And he would soon be hers. All mine. She thought grinning to herself. Just as soon as they get that one annoying little problem out of the way...

Ana Pov

"How close is he?" Seb asked scanning the area. I took another breath. And another. But I lost it. His scent was gone…

"Ugh I don't know! I lost the scent" I said frustrated as I tried to pick it up again

"Focus! Don't be afraid" Seb pushed

"I'm not afraid of Talon! If I were alone I would find him myself and finish this. But I have five other people with me whose lives depend on how I handle the next 5 minutes" I shot back growing a little irritated

"What's going on? Who's Talon?" Simon asked. From his increased heart rate I knew he was worried. I tried not to focus on it and instead come up with a plan. I won’t let Talon hurt my friends

"Seb, how close is that passage into the tunnel?" I asked forming a quick solution.

"Less than half a mile" he responded

"Good. Take them there and I’ll lure Talon to me" I began to run off in the opposite direction. But Seb caught my wrist to stop me

"Marie, take the others to the passage while we hold off Talon" Seb said putting emphasis on we.

Should have known he wouldn't leave me alone, even knowing I could take Talon. Marie opened her mouth to argue but Seb’s expression stopped it. Sometimes it's strange the way they communicate without speaking. It's as if they can read each other’s mind. That would be a handy talent if it were true.

"Ana-"

"Sy I'll be fine. Just go okay. Everyone leave now" I said. Simon looked torn but I pushed easiness into my eyes. He didn't need to worry about me. Marie led the others deeper into the woods. All except one followed; Jace

"You need to go too" I told him. He shook his head and walked closer to me

"No. I should stay and help" Jace replied determined

"I disagree. We know Talon we can handle this. The others however could use your help" Seb spoke to Jace like the leader he was. And he was right. Seb and I could deal with Talon.

From the change in his demeanor Jace understood too. With one final glance at me he ran off the way the others had previously gone.

Talons scent came drifting on the next breeze but this time I noticed something else about it.

 He wasn't alone…

 Another smell of hairspray and tanning lotion followed his. I knew who it belonged to but I wasn't ready to admit out loud yet. Mainly because it doesn't make sense. How could he have found her?

 I used all my energy to pinpoint their location. Good thing I did because had I not, I wouldn't have been able to stop what happened next…

The distinctive sound of a trigger being pulled filled the silent forest. My experience with being shot enabled me to gauge the direction the bullet was going. With my vampire senses being so fast it was almost like everything was happening in slow motion. I saw the tiny gray bullet break through the tree line into our small clearing. Immediately I knew this shot wasn't intended for me.

Using a speed so fast a human eye wouldn't see, I tackled an unsuspecting Seb to the ground. I was fast but not fast enough. The bullet pierced through my right shoulder. We landed on the forest floor hard. Not a moment later the freezing burn of platinum began

"AHH!!" I screamed withering on my back.

"Fuck! We need to get the bullet out" Seb shouted as he quickly began tending to my wound. His face was a mixture of anger and rage that made him look scary beautiful.

 The platinum began working its way through my body. It hurt like hell but I was fighting it.  After taking shots like these from Marcos guards I was somewhat used to the pain.

 Slow clapping from our left alerted us to the arrival of our unwelcome guest

"Bravo!" Talon said with that cocky smirk on his face. "You see I knew if Id aimed at you, you would have dodged, so aiming at Seb was just perfect!" he ended proud of himself. Talon isn't my concern at the moment. I couldn't take my eyes off the girl he brought with him. From the smug look on her face it was willingly.

"Kim, what the hell are you doing?" I asked suspiciously. There was a glint in her eyes that had me on edge. She smiled wickedly before clasping Talons hand.

"Don't worry about her dollface or maybe you should" Talon stated winking at me.

Seb was glaring at Talon so hard that if looks could kill, well you know the rest.  I had a bad feeling and lying on this ground in weakened state wouldn't save us. Masking my emotions I dug into the small hole in my shoulder. The pain was intense but if it was one thing Seb taught me was to never show a vampire your feelings. They play on pain.

My fingertips brushed against the bullet. Latching on to it I swiftly yanked it out and dropped it on the ground. The relief was instant and the wound closed in seconds. Jumping to my feet I prepared myself for their next move.

"We'll aren't you Ms. G.I Jane" Kim sniped looking me up and down "Got your little black shorts, tank top, boots and even the ponytail to complete it" she ended with jealously burning in her eyes.

"I was actually going for Lara Croft. So you’re stalking me to comment on my fashion?" I asked sarcastically

"No. We came to kill you. You won't be hurting Talon anymore" Kim stated taking the gun from Talon and aiming it directly at me.

To say I was shocked was an understatement. We've had our differences sure but actually wanting to kill me was taking it to a new level. Kim may not be my biological sister but we grew up together. There is nothing I could have done to make her hate me. Even as I searched her eyes for any of sign of bluff I knew it was useless. Kim was serious...

"What? You look surprised" she commented

"Kim I don't know what lies he's feeding you but trust me when I say he's dangerous. Now put down the gun" I tried to reason with her. She only cocked her head like a confused dog in response. This is unreal! My sister is pointing a gun at me! What's next?!

"Nice try dollface but she's mine now" Talon taunted. The smirk on his face made my skin crawl. Anger I didn't see coming boiled up inside of me. I'm sick and tired of this shit!

"Fine! If you want to kill me, take your best shot" my tone was filled with so much hostility that Kim's stance faulted a little. That's right she should be afraid.

"Wh-what's wrong with your eyes?" She asked. Her arm was wavering a bit.

"Her eyes are red because she's evil. Just shoot her and we can be together without fear" Talon cooed to Kim. She sucked in everything he was saying like it was absolute truth. Any idiot could see he was using and lying to her. Since when did she get so naive?

"What's your plan?" Seb whispered beside me.

He hadn't once taken his eyes off Talon. Another rule he lives by; never lose sight of your enemy. I wish he could read my thoughts and so he would know what I was about to do. But Talon would hear if I said it out loud. Sebs smart, he’ll act as soon as I do that's a given.

We continued to watch Talon coach my sister into pulling the trigger and ending my life. With each second I knew she was growing more confident and it wouldn't be long before she did. If my mother saw this how would that make her feel? Sadness threatened to take over when I briefly thought of our last conversation. One day I'll make it right with her.

"Bye Analise" Kim said snapping me from my thoughts. I focused my eyes on her long finger. Waiting for the exact moment the trigger was pulled.

Three…two…one…BANG!

Right when the first shot fired I took off towards Kim. She fired more rounds but I was too quick for any to hit me. At the last second I changed direction and tackled Talon instead. Catching him off guard I slammed his body into a nearby tree so hard it cracked. Seb had already had a hold of Kim and was easily restraining her. Just like I knew he would.

My momentary distraction was enough for Talon to send a kick to my core. I flew back a few feet landing on the grass. Talon charged me. I threw my foot out and kicked him in the face.

“Bitch” He said spitting blood

“Thanks” I said back flipping to my feet “I hope you’re ready to die” not giving him the chance to reply I attacked him.

Punching and kicking every open space on his body. I stayed on him, not giving him the chance to throw any strike back. And it felt good! Especially because I wasn’t even using my ability. Talon fell to his knees after I grabbed his wobbling head and kneed him in the face hard. He grunted and fell on his back.

“Is that all you got? I expected more” I said hovering over him with a smile. His head lolled before he looked at me. Talon started grinning, showing me his blood covered fangs

“You’re getting good, but you forgot something” He said stilling grinning like a moron

“Oh yea, what’s that? A stake through your heart for the sake of tradition?” I mock. He actually laughed, for what I wasn’t sure

“No. You forgot I don’t fight fair” He reached into his belt loop so quick I couldn’t have reacted fast enough had I tried. Talon fired. The bullet shot right into my stomach, sending me onto my back. The pain of this one was worse than first.

I’m such an idiot! I let myself get too cocky and toyed with him the way vampires tend to do. I could feel the bullet in me, but it was too deep for me to take it out. The platinum in my system was making me dizzy. My eyes were losing focus. Suddenly I felt warm hands cradling my head. From the sensations they caused I knew Seb deserted my sister to come aide me. Not a wise choice at the moment

“Tsk, tsk, tsk Ana. You put up a good fight but now it’s time to die” Talon said gleefully. Kim was now next to him and they were both pointing guns at us. How the hell are we getting out of this one?

“Put that gun down and fight me like a man” Seb said standing back up. His body was shaking. And I think I could feel low vibrations coming off him. Or this platinum is making me crazy

“No thanks, too messy for my taste. I’d rather just shoot” Talon said casually. Then they pulled the trigger...

I could hear the shots but nothing was getting to us. Every bullet fired hit this invisible wall and bounced back with a huge spark. What’s happening? Talon fired again and again but still it couldn’t touch us. He threw the gun on the ground and charged. Instead of attacking Seb like he planned he ran into the wall we couldn’t see and flew back.

“Come on! The spell won’t hold long!” Jace shouted a few feet behind us. Seb swiftly scooped me in his arms, running to where Jace and the others were waiting

“NO!” Talon screamed banging on the block Jace created “You bitch! I’ll find you!”

“I’m counting on it” I replied barely above a whisper. From his frustrated his I knew he heard.

We ran through the woods with me in Sebs arms. The bullet has been inside me too long because I’m shaking. Seb clutched me tighter to his chest. For safety or comfort, I didn’t know. I also didn’t know how far we had run. What I did realize is that we stopped and Seb was pulling my tank top off

“What are you doing?” Jace asked rather protectively

“I have to get the bullet out” Seb snapped. Will these two ever get along? It’s probably my fault since I’m the reason they don’t.

“Holy shit! She’s been shot!” Lily exclaimed. Seb sat me up and slapped my face a few times. Why was he doing that?

“Ana open your eyes” He said. Wow I didn’t know they were closed. But now that he mentioned it seemed impossible to do. Still I pushed all my strength into it. When they finally opened I saw everyone crowed around me with concerned faces.

“Good Ana. Now tell me how deep the bullet is. There is no exit point on you” Seb was looking down at me with a mixture of emotions in his amazing eyes. I could get lost there. Oh right the bullet. Focus Ana!

“In my ba-back. Two inches to the left of my spine” I answered weakly. I saw Marie immediately rummaging through one of Sebs bags that he gave her before Talon attacked. She took out a sharp blade and gave it to her brother. Didn’t need to be a genius to know what about to happen. Seb gently turned me over on his lap so that I was face down

“This may hurt a bit. I’m sorry” He whispered to me. I did my best to nod for him to just do it. I needed that platinum out of me now! Seb didn’t hesitate. He stuck the knife in my back creating a slit. I bit down on my lip to keep from crying out. As a vampire platinum doesn’t just kill us instantly, unless injected into the heart or head. It weakens our defensive and we become sensitive to everything. So we inserted his fingers into my back, I nearly bit a hole through my lips to keep from screaming

“There I got it!” Seb shouted throwing the tiny bullet that caused me so much pain. I was panting so hard I felt like a dog on a hot day. But my fast healing system was already reviving.

“Shit balls! The cut is closing! That’s so awesome, even better than stiches!” Lily yelled again in awe. I took a couple more deep breathes to steady myself and shake off the last of the after effects. Simon smiled a huge relief smile at me and handed me my shirt.

Great now everyone’s seen me in my bra. Jumping to my feet I put it on as quickly as I can

“You alright?” Marie asked. I smiled and nodded at her before turning to Jace

“Thanks for saving us back there” I said grateful

“Anything for you” Jace said sweetly. He reached up and placed a stray hair behind my ear. His touch left a trail of warm tingles. A growl from my left had me stepping away. Seb has his steel mask on but I could see the anger in his eyes toward Jace.

“Seb, thanks for well, everything” I said turning to him. He cut his eyes at me and then Jace before giving me a stiff nod. What was he just thinking? Something else must be bothering him, beside petty jealousy.

“The passage into the tunnels is right below us” Seb began. He wiped some dirty and leaves away to reveal what looked like a sewer entrance

“Damn, I hoping Ana getting shot would make you forget this whole going into the dark tunnels thing” Lily remarked. Like usual we ignored her side comments

“I’ll take the lead; Marie will be in the middle and Ana at the rear. Stick close together” Seb ordered taking weapons from Marie’s bag. He handed knives and flash lights to everyone and guns to Marie, himself and me. Those would have been handy in the fight I just had with Talon.

“Please follow my every command down there. If the dwellers are present, we will be in the fight for our lives” Seb ended looking everyone in the eye. I heard five pounding hearts, beating like they were trying to escape their bodies. I’m not so sure my heart would be beating from fear right now

Why?

Because I’m tired of playing nice today.

I could feel the sparks already coming to life in my eyes. It’s still dangerous for me to use my ability but I don’t care.

 If there are dwellers down there, they better run and hide…

 Or else…
