The Mad Vampire Unleashed

"Issac..."

The male stared blankly at Steven, his glowing red eyes drifting to Maya.

Maya could feel salty tears well up in her eyes as she stared in shock. She tried to move, but her feet were practically glued to the ground. Like a deer in headlights. Her mind was screaming at her, urging her to move or take any action.

"Scream!"

"Say something!"

"Move!"

"Do something!"

"Anything!"

"Cat caught your tongue?" he purred, taunting her with a look of mischief in his eyes. "You're not real. You're just a mere memory of my imagination." The brunette stated, shaking her head and turning around, only for him to speed in front of her, locking himself into the circle."If I'm not real, then how can I do this?" His voice barely whispered to her.

He traced the back of his hand gently across her cheekbone, moving her bangs out of her face. She was frozen. She couldn't move. The moment his hand made contact with her skin, her eyes closed shut, refusing to look the male in the eye. The familiarity of his skin gliding across hers made her sick to her stomach. Memories of love and passion that they both shared, were replaced with feelings such as disgust and hatred.

"Get away!"

"Leave me alone!"

"Don't touch me!"

Her mind screamed, begging her to move away from him. His hand dropped, and she reopened her eyes, the anger and frustration clear. A single angry, hot tear rolled down her cheek as her eyes finally met his. His gaze was like none other she had experienced; cold, and sharper than a blade. He quickly wiped the tear from her face as a smile of satisfaction graced his features.

"Don't worry, love. I'll make it quick I promise."

Steven fumed at his statement, forcing himself in front of his sister, attempting to shield her from him. "Like hell, you will!" he said, a threatening tone lacing his voice "Is that a challenge, Steven?" Issac chuckled darkly, his smirk widening into a devilish grin. A sudden gust of wind broke the salt, causing Issac to look away, losing his focus on the two heretics. Steven took this opportunity to throw Issac against the wall, watching as the black-haired male fell to the floor. Infuriated, Issac stood and lunged at Steven, tackling the brunette to the floor. Issac punched Steven across the face multiple times, causing Steven to spit blood every time his face would turn and hit the floor.

Maya saw the blood come out of her brother's mouth, and she launched herself at Issac, kicking him off of Steven and into the doors.

Stefanie and Hope ran over to Stefan, healing him and untieing his restraints as quickly as possible. Stefan groaned in pain, falling forward, only for Hope and Stefanie to catch him. Issac saw this, and ran at Stefanie but was blocked by  Maya speeding over to him and grabbing him by the neck, pushing him against the wall. "Get out of here!" Steven yelled towards the two girls, only for them to nod and attempt to make a run for it.

Issac then wiggled himself out of the heretics' grasp and started to make his attack on hope. Maya attempted to interfere, but he grabbed her by the arm, and threw her into the air, her back hitting the wall. Issac continued to run at Hope, only for Maya to push him as far away as she could with her magic, and watched hope run out of the room with the two other Salvatores.

The three of them still on the floor, jumped to their feet, stalking towards the middle of the room, the tension becoming higher with each step the three of them took. Steven and Maya's eyes grew a deep red, magic flowing through their veins, urging to be let out.
