The Book Of Life

Chapter Twenty Five

The only thing I've done is stand up from sitting on the bench.

The Witch casts a spell to hold the rouge wolf still so Nikolai can free himself form their tumble. The Vampire manages to escape Alyx's crushing tackle with his speed, his fangs showing in the menacing grin he's giving her. He takes a step towards me as if taunting and Alyx moves to counter.

"Ah! So, your are protecting the girl." his voice emits cunningly.

"But you're not fast enough, wolf." he uses his supper speed to enact a diving lunge for me.

I feel my feet move before I give them the command to. I feel the friction of my fast movement in the souls of my shoes as they scrape the concrete ground. I feel every muscle in my body tense and lock itself. Waiting upon my command to use their ATP-CP. Within a few milliseconds, even to the Supernatural eye, I move incredibly fast and the Vampire dives headfirst into the seat- not expecting me to move at all. A loud metal clang echoes around the lower parking lot. I stifle a laugh while everyone looks at me with profound confusion and wonder. Alyx is the first to crack a chuckle than her farther follows, and the Witch cackles afterwards.

The Vampire stands and shakes head, likely seeing stars. "How, did you, move that fast." He takes long, stalking steps towards me.

Alyx steps in front of my but the Witch appears next to us and raises her hands, the Vampire halts mid step.

"Alyx." Aly looks over to the witch.

"I know who you are, your brother and your father are, Everett. You're the biggest pack around for hours. Bailley, Max, Maxwell at your service Your Majesty."

"How did yo-" I'm stunned.

"No other Supernatural could move as fast as you did, even a Vampire and your magic arura is stronger than Riley's'. I'd heard word that she'd past but to see you now, I have faith." Bailey states.

Nikolai is overpowered and punched in the face hen swept off his feet. Next the rogue wolf tackles Bailey, who loses control of her magical hold on the Vampire. the rogue rushes to Aly and the two become caught up in their own fight. My attention turns back to Bailey but she's on the ground, knocked out with the vampire now stepping over her, striding gleefully towards me.

He zips forward, I throw a punch, and it connects with his stomach. As The Vampire stumbles backwards, I put Brandon's training to use. He comes at me again, kicking and punch sloppily, some are making it through my guard but Brandon's training comes to my aid. Alyx is pinned down by the rouge wolf as I trade blows with this bloody Vampire, as he throws out a leg, I catch it in my hands and push it down as I deliver a front kick to his torso followed by a round house kick. I follow up with a hook kick then a side kick before hocking my leg around his ankles and sweeping him off his feet.

The rogue wolf grabs me from behind and I elbow him in the nose, I can tell it's bleeding because I can smell it. He goes to wrap his hands around my waist and neck to throw me, so I pull a koshi guruma on him and he lands on the ground with a heavy thud, his head bounces nastily. He knocked himself out from that headbang. It isn't three seconds after being freed of one attacker that the Vampire's hands roughly manhandle and seize my shoulders at my neck, making me kneel as I gasp from the pain.

What are you!" he snarls.

"Your worst nightmare."

"And how so?" The Vampire laughs.

My eyes being to glow a brilliant golden amber, so bright the Vampire has to blink once he sees my eyes. Both the rogues and Bailley gasp at my shocking announcement- for Maxwell, I'm just confirming it for her.

"Where is it?"

"What?"

"Where is it. Where's the book!" he shouts, hands tightening their death grip around my neck and shoulders as he shakes me slightly.

"Where you and I belong; in the garbage." I'm stupidly proud of that one.

"Why you little.... "he raises his hand to strike.

"HEY! Get your mother fucking hands off my best friend you fucking arsehole bitch!" a voice I never thought I would hear shouts.

Tori rams into the Vampire holding me. He's startled enough that hey fall to the ground and his head bobbles against the concrete. I don't know whether to feel proud for her and her bravery, angry that she put herself in harms way or dumbfounded that she stood up for me. Bold. But stupid. Very stupid.

I overpower the dazed werewolf rogue easily, and he slams into the concrete again. He stands up again, ready to fight but this time Alyx is ready to fight. she kicks him in the stomach, knees his head and gives him a so powerful uppercut that his head snaps the other way. Nikolai rams the confused Vampire's head back into the metal bench I was sitting on earlier, and it rings like a weird sounding cymbal. The fair fights back on- well, plus one human. Alyx immediately begins to defend Tori once she deals with the rogue wolf. The speedy Vampire keeps using his speed to not stay still, and it's working on keeping me form attacking. I constantly have to block his jabs or move to where he appears.

"Guard her with your life." Alyx growls venomously at Bailley.

I help Nikolai contain the speedy Vampire and wrestle him into an Ambar. With him detained Nik can get rid of the wolf rouge that won't just stay down- he ends up picking him up and tossing him over the railings, down to the ground two or three stories below. He'll live, with most likely badly bruising or one broken bone. But Tori doesn't know that, and she gasps in horror as Nik throws him over the railings. I'm sure she has no idea what she got herself into.
