Ana vs. Kim...Round 1....

Maximus Pov

The iron clad doors opened loudly revealing the sentencing room. It was set up much like a court house in the human world. A judging table was up front with benches surrounding for the witnesses. Elite guards covered in chain-mail ushered Maximus forward.

He was starting to think coming back here was a mistake. As he entered the room he saw a man he hoped to never see again.

"Lord Henry" Maximus said with a stiff bow. Lord Henry was the king’s right hand man. It was a position that Maximus himself used to have, until Marcos destroyed them all.

"Maximus, you’re a fool to have come here. You do realize showing up at the palace after banishment is punishable by death" Lord Henry said with a devious smile.

Henry was the sly type of man to do anything to get to the top. He was all too thrilled to jump into Maximus position after Marcos was caught. Lord Henry was the one to convince the king that Maximus should be punished for the crimes of his brother.

And now Maximus was back after all these years to take what was rightfully his.

"I have come here today to report treason to my king" Maximus stated. Henry ran his fingers along his short beard as he studied him.

"Treason? You have no duty to the king" lord Henry replied. Maximus tried to keep his face neutral but all he wanted to do was rip Henry's throat out.

"I may not be in the elite guard anymore but I still feel a duty to protect my king" Maximus bit out.

Lord Henry just laughed, as if this was all some grand joke. When he stopped he approached Maximus with slow purposeful strides until they were face to face.

"You know old friend I will enjoy watching you die tonight" Henry said smiling.

This time Maximus didn't hide the snarl on his face. With lightning fast speed Maximus spun around, punched the guard closest to him and swiped his sword. Before the other guards could react he jumped in the air flipping over Henry and landing behind him. Henry tried to turn around but he was too slow, Maximus already had the sword pressed against his bobbing Adams apple.

"Don't move! Or this platinum dipped blade will be the last thing you feel before it rips through your throat" Maximus said voice filled with venom. Henry held is hands up in surrender and motioned the guards to stay back.

"You won't get away with this!" Lord Henry shouted while struggling to break Maximus hold. Too bad Maximus was always stronger than he.

"Call the king here now!" Maximus ordered.

He however didn't need to make the command because seconds later the doors burst opened. More elite guards entered first before the entrance of the vampire ruler.

King Ferox glided into the room with grace. Unlike the old fashioned styled palace, the king looked completely modern in his dark blue suit and tie. His deep red eyes penetrated Maximus but he held his ground. If he showed weakness now the king would kill him before he had a chance to explain himself.

King Ferox stopped a few feet away from him and surveyed the scene.

"Maximus. It's been a long time" King Ferox stated

"My king" Maximus replied with a quick bow of his head. He refused to drop to one knee and bow because then be would lose his hold on Henry.

"It's seems you’re in a bit of a situation right now. So please explain why you have broken the laws, storm the kingdom and taken one of my men hostage" the king asked in a controlled voice. Not even a dark hair was out of place on the kings head. He was always in control

"I'm sorry my king for my actions but I still believe it is my duty to warn you of a new threat" Maximus said tightening his hold on a squirming Henry.

"Threat?" The king questioned

"Yes my king. It's my brother Marcos. He feels he has found a way to destroy you with a newly turned vampire" Maximus explained. King Ferox raised a brow at him before running his fingers through his short dark hair.

"Marcos is trying to kill me? How does he plan to accomplish such a task" King Ferox said watching Maximus intently. Maximus didn't miss the iris of the king turning brighter red. He only hoped Ferox wouldn't use his ability on him before he had time to fully explain.

“My brother came to with a plan using a newly turned vampire to kill you. He believes this girl is kinetic” Maximus explained

“Impossible!” Lord Henry shot out. Maximus pressed the blade further against his neck until a thin line of blood surfaced. Henry stiffened

“I wouldn’t be here if it were a lie” Maximus spat out. King Ferox regarded the men for a moment not saying a word.  His eyes burned with anger but otherwise he was completely emotionless.

“What evidence do you have that this girl your brother speaks of exists?” The king asked

“My brother and I haven’t spoken since the exile. Yet a couple days ago he came to me asking for my help tracking the blue eyed vampire he turned. Marcos wouldn’t risk coming to me if this weren’t true” Maximus ended watching Ferox for a reaction.

“I’ll send some men after them immediately” The king replied after a long pause

“NO! My king, Maximus tells lies! This cannot be true! Kinetic vampires haven’t existed in millennia! Your father made sure to kill all the children of the creator! The only one being Arc!” Lord Henry argued. At this point he would say anything to keep Maximus out of the kingdom and in exile.

“A wise king doesn’t ignore threats, big or small. My men will find this girl and bring her to me to see for myself” Ferox stated. The king began to turn away, but Maximus wasn’t done yet

“My king I want to lead the team in the search” Maximus stated firmly. The king rose a brow at him “I know I’m banished but this is my way to prove my loyalty. Besides I am the best tracker in the world. I could find her much faster than your men can” Maximus stared the king in the eye, willing him to hear his words.

“Very well. Lead my men and return with the girl and you can have your place back in the guard. Fail and I’ll kill you” King Ferox said

“What?! Bu-but my king-” Lord Henry started

“I suggest you brush up on your fighting skills Henry, because if Maximus succeeds you will have to battle him to keep your current position” King Ferox stated before turning to leave the room just as gracefully as he entered.

Maximus finally released Henry. The slit on his neck began to heal instantly. Henry spun around angrily and punched Maximus in the face. The blow barely caused Maximus head to move. Seems as if Henry still hasn’t improved his fighting talents even after all these years. But when you’re a master manipulator, hand to hand combat doesn’t feel like a priority. Maximus straightened up and face a very mad Henry

“You know old friend I will enjoy killing you” Maximus remarked humorlessly. Henry’s lip curled up in an ugly snarl

“You won’t pull this off” Henry snapped. Maximus just shrugged casually and brushed by his old enemy.

He was sure of two things. One, he would find that girl and bring her back. And two, his actions today may have gotten him back into the palace, but after he completes his task The king will kill Marcos…

 Ana Pov

I stood there with a fake smile on my face and my hand out stretched. The whole parking lot had gone deafly quiet. Not even a cricket dared to chirp after my announcement. I looked around at all the shocked silent faces of my former classmates waiting for someone to react.

Hmm maybe they didn't hear me.

When I glanced back at Kim the rage in her expression was enough to confirm I was heard.

"You lying bitch" Kim sneered "You may be a lot of things but my fat ass sister isn't one of them" she ended looking satisfied with herself. Oh what fun I'm going to have shattering her world now.

"Oh you think I'm not Ana because I looked better than you right?" I asked sarcastically

"You!" She said pointing a finger at me "Are not hotter than me"

"Honestly Kim I could care less. But I am Ana would you like me to prove it?" I asked gaging her reaction. Her expression changed almost like she was worried. Perfect!

"Hmm let’s see, you wet the bed till you were ten" I began counting off my fingers "You keep your diary under a loose floor board. When I was five you broke dads golfing trophy and blamed me. You steal money from mom’s wallet every Tuesday. Shall I go on?" I asked looking at Kim's beet red face. Her anger sky rocketed and she was shaking with rage. I must be hitting the spot. Which means I should keep going right? Right.

"Ok I’ll go on. You cheated on Jace with-" I didn't get to finish that sentence because Kim began screaming at the top of her lungs like a mad woman.

"ANA YOU BITCH!" She shrieked seconds before charging. At least she believes me now.

 I stood waiting for the blow. Kim didn't disappoint. She hurled her body into mine and we both crashed to the ground. We rolled around on the hard pavement a few times before coming to a stop with crazy Kim on top of me yelling and slapping me like a lunatic.

"I'LL KILL YOU!" She shouted grabbing a fist full of my hair and slamming my head on the ground. Ouch!

I swing my right fist out and punched her in the face. She fell off of me with an oomph! We both lay on our backs panting for a minute before she jumped up and attacked me again. Once more we tumbled over each yelling and cursing

"I hate you!" She hollered

"I hate you too. You slut!" I shouted back.

When our rolling stopped I was straddling her. I took my hand and slapped the shit out of her. She gasped completely stunned she was bitch slapped for a second and then began swinging her fist out at me. I dodged each blow easily. I lifted my hand to slap her again when I was forcible ripped away.

"Control yourself!" Seb whispered angrily in my ear while pulling me away. Two jocks had also intervened and were holding back Kim.

"I went easier on her Seb. You and I both know that" I whispered to him while watching my sister try to claw her way back to me.

Her left eye was starting to darkened already from the punch. Yeah I went very easy on her. I could have easily broken all her limbs but instead I just slapped her around a bit. The maniac deserved more.

"You should have stayed gone Ana! No one wants you here!" Kim threw the insults at me still attempting to break the jocks hold on her.

I would be lying if I said her words didn't hurt. I looked around at my former classmates. Most of their faces were staring at me with a mixture shock, awe and just below the surface disgust. Even though I had a new body, some of them still saw me as old fat loser Ana.

And it stung. I thought coming back here I would show them all how much better I am now. But am I? Has turning into a beautiful vampire essentially changed the loser inside? Or will I forever carry a piece of that insecurity with me.

"You’re better than this Ana. Focus on the girl you became over the last two years" Seb said softly to me.

I will never understand how he reads me so well. I wonder if he's one of my mates. What am I thinking? Of course he is! It's Seb. He always had a connection to me that I couldn't explain, until now. He is right about one thing. I am different. And I won't hang my head and let these high school idiots intimidate me anymore!

 I stood taller and hardened my gaze on all my tormentors. When they landed on Kim I almost smiled. Why? Because beneath that entire tough exterior I could finally see it was her that was threatened by me! Imagine that.

"Hey Kim!" I yelled "How does it feel?" She gave me a confused face and I just chuckled "Let me clarify. How does it feel to see me now? You tried your best to keep me down because you were always afraid this would happen. That one day I would be better than you. But what you failed to realize was I was always better than you and now I have the looks to top it off. Oh and this too" I ended yanking Jace to me and smashing my lips to his lips. His body stiffened but I pressed my hand to the back of his head to keep him from moving. I had a point to prove.

 Jace’s lips felt like silk against mine and I tried not to get lost in this kiss and remember my anger towards him too. But it was hard.

I broke the kiss abruptly and freed Jace. Kim was screaming and doubling her efforts to get to me. Two points Ana!

I could see the evil glint in her eyes as she struggled but I don't care. She started this war over a boy. And I will show her I won't be easily taken down.

I sent her one last smile before I turned to walk away. The lousy hotel bed was calling me. Along with a shower. My thoughts are interrupted by Bobby coming to a halt in front of me.

"Piggy? Is that really you?" He asked with a confused smile. Oh how I used to hate that name. I had to fight to keep myself from hissing at him and driving my fangs into his throat.

"Bobby if you ever call me piggy again I will rip your di-"

"Ok enough. Bobby why don't you run along now" Jace said stepping in between us. Bobby looked Jace up and down for a moment before chuckling to himself.

"Always did have a soft spot for her huh Thompson?" Bobby asked mockingly. I couldn't see Jace’s face but the tension in his body was enough to know he was pissed.

"Back off Bobby or there will be another fight tonight" Jace’s voice was deep and dangerous. Even I wouldn't push him right now. Bobby held is hands up in surrender and jogged off.

Well at least that's over. I thought. That was until I tried to walk away and Jace’s strong hand on my wrist stopped me

"Jace-"

"No Ana listen. Don't you ever do that me again! I know you have your issues with your sister but never use me as a play toy to seek revenge on her. That's unfair to me because I have real feelings for you. Not to mention it's beneath you to act so childishly" Jace ended letting go of my wrist. He looked sad and angry at the same time. My insides ache to see it. But it was low of me to use him like that. That was totally wrong and so unlike me. Kim just really pissed me off and I just felt like I had to hit her where it hurt.

"I'm sorry" I said trying to apologize but he only turned from me and walked back towards the motel room. Ugh I really messed that up.

"When I said your better than this I expected you to show it" Seb commented as he passed by me

"Seb!" I called out after him. He also ignored me and continued walking. That's great! I managed to piss of both of my mates at the same time. I’m doing such a great job with this. At this rate they will reject me before I even have a chance to choose one of them. Wonder if I already blew it with the mysterious third mate.

I don’t even want to think about that right now. I just hope for my sake I haven’t met him yet. I Stand there for a moment with my head to the sky listening to the sounds of retreating cars.

“THIS ISNT OVER ANA!” Kim shouts from somewhere behind me. I don’t even dignify her with a response and instead just stick my middle fingers up.

My emotions can’t take any more pressure tonight. I need to feed before I hype out and rip everyone’s throat open. I’m so drained that I can’t even feel my powers. I must be too exhausted to tap into them. The sound of more doors closing and tires screeching relaxes me slightly. At least they are leaving now

“Hey! That was insane” Simon said bumping shoulders with me. The smile on my face at seeing him can’t be helped. His goofy grin, curly hair and witty comments always cheer me up.

“Yeah you can say that” I said gazing back up to the night sky. Simon laughed and headed back to the room. Marie offered a small smile before she too went inside. I was finally alone, or so I thought

“That was AWESOME! You have such an exciting life” Lily said as she bounced gleeful in front of me. Ugh when will I ever have a minute to just wind down?

“That girl was a bitch! I can’t believe she is your sister?! Wow if I had her for a siser I would hold her head in a toliet after I took a dump in it. I am officially happy I followed you here” Lily said and I got the feeling she wasn’t picking up on my body language.

“Lily can you head inside with the others I need a minute” I tried to sound as nice as I could but I was really edgy. Luckily she just nodded eagerly and pranced off. Gosh, what am I going to do with that girl?

My legs decided to give out and I dropped to the ground on my knees. I knew my hunger was starting to catch up with me and fast. With everything happening at Helia’s and then here there was no time to feed. I have so many things going on, that keeping myself fed seems like an impossible task.

Out of nowhere my fangs shot out of my gums. I could feel my pupils expand until nothing but darkness covered my eyes.

There is still a bag of blood in my duffel but I can’t go into my motel and get it like this. I closed my eyes and concentrated hard on pushing my fangs back but they wouldn’t budge.

The forest isn’t too far from here I could hunt a deer or something. The only problem is animal blood makes me sick. I shudder at the thought when I tried to drink it two years ago. I threw up blood so dark it looked black for three days.

The sound of something landing on the ground in front of me caught my attention. It was two bags of blood. I looked up to see who tossed them there and wasn’t surprised to see Seb standing a foot away with his arms folded.

“Hurry and drink before anyone sees” He said. I quickly snatched up the bags and savagely downed the contents in seconds. Every drop brought my body back to full force. I felt light and strong. Not to mention how wonderful it tasted. If Seb wasn’t watching I would lick the bags.

“Thanks” I mumbled wiping my mouth with the back of my hand

“You’re welcome. I thought you might need it. You looked a little off and you didn’t hear me approach. That not good Ana, you should always be on alert” Seb lectured.

His rant reminded me of the hundred other ones he used to give me during training. I waved him off and darted up. Kim is lucky she’s not fighting me now, who knows how bad I would beat her with this renewed strength.

“Come on you have something else to do” Seb said beginning to walk off

“What else could I possibly have to do at 2 a.m.?” I asked half complaining. He stopped and turned back to me with a serious face

“You have to tell your friends you’re a vampire or leave them forever. Your choice Ana..”

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day…

Kim Pov

Kim stared at her reflection in her bathroom mirror more pissed than she had ever been. Her eye had a purple bruise around it and her cheek was red from the bitch slap Ana gave her. She couldn’t believe her pathetic sister grew some balls and actually hit her!

But the worst part is that Ana is back and she looks…looks…Kim couldn’t even finish her thought about her sisters new figure. Because then she would have to admit that Ana looks good and that’s just something she would never do.

Kim hurriedly slammed on as much cover up as she could. Today she didn’t want to be late for school. If Ana was there she was going to beat her ass the second she saw her. Nobody makes a fool out of Kim. Let alone her loser of a sister that she thought was dead for the last two years.

The image of Ana and Jace kissing infuriated Kim so much she almost fell while putting her dress on. Kim always wanted Jace to love her like she loved him but he was stuck on Ana. Even the blackmail didn’t really work. Sure they kept up appearances like a couple but she always knew Jace never truly loved her.

And that only added gas to her fire. How could he possibly choose Ana! She was a nothing, a nobody!

Kim finished getting ready and stormed downstairs into her kitchen for her morning apple

“Good morning-oh honey what happened to your face?” Her mother asked all concerned. Kim rolled her eyes.

“That would be compliments of your other daughter. Ana” Kim sneered snatching the apple from her mother’s hand. Kim watched her mother for a reaction but when she didn’t get one she knew exactly why

“You knew she was back!” Kim accused. Lucy ignored her and went to the fridge pulling out some eggs. Kim angrily strode up to her and knocked all the eggs out of her hand.

“Why are you always protecting her?!” She yelled in her mother’s face

“I didn’t say anything to protect you both. Your hatred toward your sister is unnatural” Lucy said with sadness in her voice. Kim didn’t care

“What’s unnatural is loving one of your daughters more than the other!” Kim sniped

“That not true! Or fair! I LOVE YOU BOTH EQUALLY!” Lucy said raising her voice for the first time in years. Kim narrowed her eyes at her mother

“Next time I see Analise, I’ll kill her. Now clean this mess up before I call dad” Kim said venomously before walking out the kitchen.

As she left the house she could hear the small sounds of her mother sobbing. Like usual she ignored it and hoped into her car determined to get to school.

Once she was at school, Kim searched every for Ana, but there was no sign of her. Well she will show up sometime or Kim would have to go back to that shitty motel for round two.

Grudgingly Kim walked with Josie to her first period class. They took their usual seats in the back as people began to gossip about what happened last night. For once Kim didn’t join in, especially when a few people started gushing about how gorgeous Ana is now. One evil look for Kim had them shutting up.

The bell rang ten minutes ago and the teacher still hadn’t shown up. Kim was giving the old fart five more minutes before she just ditched. Right on cue the door opened an in waltz the teacher.

Except it wasn’t old man Gray.

The guy that walked in looked to be in his twenties with buzzed cut hair, dark eyes and you could tell under those jeans and button down was an amazing body. He exuberated confidence and mystery and was drop dead sexy. If the smirk on his face had Kim’s mouthwatering. From the looks the other girls in the class was giving him they obviously felt the same way

“Who is that hottie?” Josie leaned over to whisper

“I don’t know, but I want to find out” Kim said back not taking her eyes off the man. He turned to the board grabbing a piece of chalk. The class was silent as they all watched what he wrote.

T-A-L-O-N.    

He finished writing the letters on the board, dusting his hands off as he turned back to face the class.

“Good morning class. My name is Talon and I am your substitute for today” The geek god named Talon said as his eyes drifted over the class; almost like he was searching for something.

“Before we start, I’m looking for a girl. Her name is Ana; she has long black hair, blue eyes. Anyone know where she is?” Talon asked.

“Uh yes mister Talon she goes here but umm I don’t think she’s here todayyy” Amber the school slut quickly answered. Amber was twirling a piece of hair between her fingers clearly trying to look sexy. Too bad she was failing miserably.

Kim wondered why he was looking for Ana.

“Thank you. Ok humans take out your books and do whatever you want. I have better things to do” Talon said leaving the room.

It was the look in his eye that had Kim jumping out of her seat to follow him. He didn’t look like he wanted to find Ana because he loved her or missed her, but more like because he hated her.

“Hey wait!” Kim shouted once she was in the hall. Talon stopped and turned back to her slowly

“What?” He snapped

“W-why are you looking for Ana?” She asked. In a flash Talon was in her face, barely an inch between them. Kim’s heart began to pound in her chest. No one ever made her feel like this not even Jace and Talon hadn’t even touched her.

“Why do you ask?” He said taking a piece of her hair between his fingers. Kim had to swallow hard and force her knees not to buckle. He was just so sexy; all she wanted was for him to take her right there on the hallway floor

“Sh-she’s my sister” Kim sputtered out. Talon dropped her hair and looked her right in the face. She didn’t know what he was thinking but his lips looked so soft

“I need to find her because I want to kill her” Talon replied in a serious deep voice. He watched her waiting for her reaction. Maybe he thought she would freak out and try to stop him. After all that’s what normal sisters would do. Well Talon is in for a surprise

“I want to help” Kim said. Talon raised a brow and glided his arms across his muscular chest

“Help what?” He asked like he was talking to a child. Kim pushed her lust aside and looked him dead in the eye. She wanted to make sure he understood she meant exactly what she was about to say

 
“I want to help you kill my sister…”
