The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule

The line they were once in broke and they we're all now running towards us. I looked over at my brothers. We took off towards, all of us extending our wings and taking to the sky. Some on the other side took to their sky as well. I darted towards one flinging him into the ground. She quickly got up and went for a punch which I quickly blocked. I kicked her in stomach causing her to tumble over. I turn sharpest part of my wing and divided it into her chest. She died instantly. I retracted my wing and looked around as everyone began fighting.
As I turned my back I suddenly felt something pierce my right wing. I bent my wing taking the small knife out. I turned and was looking at a girl who literally looked like the same chick I just killed. I glanced at the ground then back at her. The girl on the ground was clearly dead.
"What the fuck are you?" I muttered.
"Bitch I'm a shapeshifter," she caught me off guard by kicking me in the stomach flying me a couple of feet and knocking me into Nathaniel.
"You okay?" he asked.
"Yes. I just encountered my first shapeshifter," I replied. "And I'm about to motherfucking kill her".
I quickly get up and rush over to her. I fly over her, flipping myself so were back to back. I grab her chin and pull her head back towards me until I hear the crack in her spine and her head comes off. I throw her head to the ground.
As I look up, I see Aurelia smiling at me. I go to advance towards her but Davina places a hand on my chest stopping me.
"She's mine," she says defensely. "The only person who gets to kill her is me".
I glance over to Damien who just so happens to be staring at us. He shakes his head at me.
"Alright," I say stepping back.
I could have sworn Damien said that wasn't the plan. I glance over at Damien once more but he's now busy fighting someone.
Suddenly a guy comes at me with a knife from the side of me. What's with these knives? I bend his outstretched arm with the knife bend it back towards until I hear it snap. He pulls his hurt arm to his chest. I take this chance and flutter my wings creating a strong wing, knocking him down couple feet from me by a wolf. She turns immediately and looks up at me.
"He's all yours," I say.
The wolf clamps his jaws around the guy neck ripping out his jugular.
"Xavier!" I hear Matthew call out.
"A group of 4 just left and went into the woods. There's a possibility they could be heading towards the cabin. We can't take any risks," he appears beside me.

I use the tongs and turn the chicken over. As I turn to wipe my hands on the dish towel on the island Arabela walks into the kitchen.
"Hey," she greets me as she goes into the refrigerator.
"Hey," I greet her back as I turn back to the chicken.
