"Time to die Michel!" Jennifer shouts at him. Jennifer, Zach, and I walk forward a few steps. We put our hands out hand feel the electricity from the telephone wires. We aim the electricity at Michel and it catches him and a blast of electricity.

He screams out in pain. He tries to contain it at first, but he just can't hold it in. I jab another blast of electricity at him and the lights in the houses around us start to flicker. Jennifer closes the curtains and the shutters on the houses with her free hand. Just to make sure she didn't send less electricity at Michel she shoves another jab at him.

Elizabeth shows up with half the army that we have. I look at my mother and see her shocked face. She looks over at Michel and cries out his name. She throws a knife at Zach's chest, and Jennifer catches it loosing focus on Michel. Zach looks down at the knife that was about to go into his chest and breaks his concentration.

I, however, double mine. I take my other hand and send a jolt of electricity through my mother. She flies back and hits the side of a building. I send the rest of the electricity at Michel and he screams louder than ever. He drops to the ground in a heap. My mother struggles to get over to him.

Jake hands me my bow and my quiver. I load my bow and aim at my mother. I fire a set of three arrows at her chest. Making sure one of them grazes her heart. She screams in pain as the arrows hit home.

At this one of the vampires charges toward us. Katherine turns into a werewolf and runs at him. The battle begins. Everyone charges toward each other. Jake and Isabelle tag team and start fighting side by side. I fire arrow after arrow at the oncoming group of people trying to kill us.

Jennifer and Zach start fighting together. Katherine tackles vampires and bites them and moves on to the next. A werewolf bite is said to be able to kill a vampire, and it helps that tonight is a full moon which means that all the werewolves here are stronger, and that they are wolves and not in human form.

A vampire charges at me and I fire an arrow at it, but it moves out of the way too fast. I hold us my hands and try to push him back but fire shoots out of my hands and catches the vampire on fire. I blur away from him and go find a demon to kill. I find a group of gross looking demons with stinger-like feet.

The charge at me and I pull out my Long black sword that all Nightwalkers use to kill demons. They all come at me at once and I flip out of the way like Isabelle taught me. I stab one of them in the back and it squeals. The others get angry and charge again.

I swing the sword at then and cut their mouths off. They start bleeding black blood. The sight of it makes me want to throw up. While they are squirming on the ground I cut at each of them again. They turn into a black goop puddle and sink into the asphalt.

I find Jake and Isabelle fighting a swarm of vampires. I blur over to the to help. I put the sword away as I run and grab my wooden dagger. I flip over Jake and stab the vampire in the heart with my dagger. I turn around a plant a quick kiss on his lips, then turn back around again the kill the vampires trying to kill us.

Isabelle nods at me and the three of us stab and punch the vampires. Isabelle stops and looks down at her arm. There's a big gash on her left arm. I watch it heal right in front of my eyes. I stare at her, my mouth hanging open. Jake looks the same way. Isabelle looks at us, "I swear I had no idea."

"I believe you." I say. Jake is still standing there dumbfounded. I punch Jake's shoulder to get him to snap out of it. The vampires get over there shock at the same time and start attacking us again.
