Thunder {Louis Tomlinson AU}

-Athena-

"Bringing a gun to a fist fight is pretty cowardly, Malik." Dad said, as he pulled Louis to stand beside him. "You know what else is cowardly: putting a gun to my daughter's head."

"Oh, sod off, Logan," Zayn snapped. "You're cowardly, too! You left your family alone for years!"

Before my dad could reply, mom grabbed his hand and laced their fingers together, keeping him in his place and preventing him from moving. Louis looked at me with worry in his eyes, as I jumped at the feeling of my baby, once again, deciding to kick. Though it was wrong timing again, I thank the baby for reminding me I had some things to fight for.

"Why are you doing all this?" I asked hesitantly. Zayn chuckled lightly and got real close to my ear, his breath hitting my neck.

"You see, Athena, Niall wanted to rule the world. He wanted to make everyone bow before him like he was a God, but you and your little crew ruined that opportunity." He began, my eyes towards the ground. "He wanted to make sure his little girl was taken care of. So he thought by taking over the world and crushing everyone who got in his way, she'd have everything she wanted."

I looked up at Louis, who had his arms crossed and was shaking his head in disappointment. "Sorry, but I'm calling bullshit." Louis announced. Zayn pressed the gun to my head harder, causing me to jump. "Liam and I read his journal and not once did he mention his daughter." Zayn pulled the gun away slightly. "He wanted the world to feel the pain he did from the time he was born till the time he was killed. He-"

"Shut up." Zayn hissed, catching me by surprise.

"-wanted everyone to feel helpless and alone, just like he did. He wanted the world to burn. You wanna know why?"

"Shut your mouth, Tomlinson!" Zayn snapped, his grip on my neck loosening. "You know nothing!"

"Because you rejected him." He said, causing me to look at him with wide eyes and my mouth dropped. What the hell was he talking about? "You told him you loved your wife more than him, and he went crazy. His ex kicked him out of the house, forbad him from seeing his daughter."

"That's a lie!" Zayn yelled. I was getting nervous, cause every time Zayn let up on his grip, I was closer to the edge of the building. "You have no idea what you are talking about!"

"But we do, Zayn." Liam butted in, looking at Zayn directly. "Without his daughter, his ex-girlfriend, and you, he went absolutely mental."

"I loved him! But I made a vow to my wife!"

"And ya still cheated on her." Harry said. Zayn's chest heaved quickly, his eyes wild in anger. "Tell me: did you love him before, or after you snogged him? Or after he was dead?" Zayn threw the gun to the ground, my eyes instantly darting up to look at Louis.

Before anything happened, Zayn's assistant walked up to us, confused beyond belief. "Bro-"

Zayn pushed me away from him, causing me to land on my knees hard. He stormed over to the husky man and grabbed his shirt on his hands. Louis ran over to me, helping me to my feet as Zayn backed Naughty up against the side of the deck. "I am not your damn 'bro', Shahid. I'm not your buddy, or your anything."

"Wha-"

"Stop pretending we're friends!" Zayn snapped, before picking the guy up by his shirt - surprisingly - and tossing him over the side of the building, his screams gradually getting quieter.  Louis and I looked at each other, his arms wrapped around me protectively and his eyes narrowed at Zayn.

"Give it up, Zayn." Liam said, standing tall beside Louis, Harry joining in. "We know all your secrets. You have nothing." Zayn looked around quickly, his eyes scanning around in panic.

It wasn't long until Zayn looked at me directly and smirked. I glared at him, before I felt something in my stomach that surely wasn't my baby. It was a fuzzy feeling that felt completely foreign, my eyes becoming clouded and hazy. "Athena?" Harry asked, causing Louis to look at me in worry.

I forced my way out of Louis' arms, my back facing him. I didn't know what I was doing, nor did I feel like I had control of my body. I felt like a marionette and I couldn't stop it. "Babe, what's wrong?" Louis spoke, his hands touching my shoulders. I was speechless. My mind was running wild, while my body was calm.

"Josie, I thought you took care of Jade?!" Liam yelled, as him and Josie started arguing. Louis and my parents watched me attentively, as my eyes were on Zayn, who was smiling evilly.

"Athena," Zayn said, my head nodding. "Attack and destroy."

And like a switch flipping in my head, I grabbed Louis' hands and forced them off my shoulders and faced him. I forced my claws out of my hands and narrowed my eyes at him. "Athena, snap out of it! Jade-" my dad began, before I attacked Louis, him quickly dodging me.

"Stop!" Louis yelled, dodging and weaving around my punches. "Athena!" I kicked him in gut, sending him stumbling backwards. "I'm not going to fight you!"

"That only makes it easier for me to kill you." I said, only it felt like it didn't come from my mouth. I had no idea what I was doing, I wasn't in control of my body, or mouth, Jade and Zayn were.

"This isn't you! You know it isn't! Jade is in your head!" He said, before I charged at him. I could hear Zayn laughing behind me, as Louis tried grabbing my wrists in attempt to stop me. But I couldn't be helped.

I was too far gone.

Oh damn. Stuff is about to go down.

Comment your opinions! x

I SAW 5SOS IN CLEVELAND AUGUST 21st WITH MY COUSIN AND IT WAS THE GREATEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE. I POSTED A FEW PICTURES AND VIDEOS ON MY PERSONAL INSTAGRAM IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE THEM. (Insta: loganepoole)

I'm also starting a rant book (not really a rant book, just a book that will be filled with my opinions, favorites and rants) here soon, and I really want to know what you guys would like to see me react to topic wise or if you'd like to know MY story. Lemme know.

Alright so, it's about to get real next chapter. It might take me a while to write the next chapter, so please be really patient with me. I'm not saying it's going to be a month until I update again, I'm saying I want it to be a long chapter and it might take me a few weeks to write it since I'm back in school. In the mean time, you can snapchat me (loganpoole28) you can follow my personal insta (IM GOING TO SEE ONE DIRECTION THE 29th OF AUGUST. EXPECT PICTURES THERE) I also love talking to you guys, so you can email me and we'll talk about anything. Just ask bella_brown12 (she and I have been emailing for a few weeks and she's awesome.)

I love you all!

Logan, xx
