Zayn's POV
My eyes widened as the dagger flew at me and quickly threw up my bow to deflect it. It hit the wooden part and ricocheted to Sophia, cutting her arm and slicing some of her feathers. She cried out, clutching her arm and wrapping her injured wing around her waist.

Javaad barely gave her a glance, lunging at me. I quickly retaliated, using my wings to push Belle, Liam, Calum, Louis, Harry, Niall and Michael aside to keep them out of the way. I used the dagger Belle made me, feeling that she had placed some of the creature potion that we had been making in Potions class along the blade. I just had to make sure that I didn't accidentally touch myself with it, or that could be fatal if I didn't get help in time.

Javaad swung at me with his sword, another dagger coming at me from the opposite end. I deflected the dagger with my bow and paired the sword with my dagger, trying to shove him away. I quickly shifted my dagger and made him lose his balance. As he tried to regain it back, I grabbed one of his wings and lifted him up, flying out of the Great Hall and away from everyone else.

Li, stay with them and try to keep Sophia away from Belle and the others. Be careful, her dagger has poison on it, deadly to creatures, I sent Liam as I struggled with Javaad. He sent back a wordless acknowledgement and I focused on Javaad again.

My cousin managed to get free and before he fell too far, spread his wings and shot to me. I braced myself and let out a gasp of air as his shoulder struck my stomach, him moving to pin me against the wall. I dropped my bow, but managed to keep ahold of my dagger.

"You may be older, Zayn, but I am more powerful, and much stronger. You will do best to remember that," he snarled, pressing the edge of his dagger against my throat.

I felt the metal cut slightly into my skin, but not causing me to bleed, yet at least. I had better work fast to keep it that way, or the poison on it would most likely kill me. Didn't fancy that.

"You are not more powerful, nor superior to me. I have the power of three great goddesses behind me, along with my own abilities as an elder Cherubim. I am above you, Javaad, and you would do best to remember that," I rasped, still struggling to get my breath back.

Javaad growled and shoved me away, me faltering as the blood suddenly rushed to my head. I regained my balance and quickly dove to my bow, scooping it up and expertly nocking an arrow as I maneuvered back up to face my cousin.

I sighted down the shaft of the arrow and let loose one, not aiming for a kill but rather an injury. Javaad managed to move but the arrow still embedded itself into his upper right bicep, causing him to cry out and drop the poisoned dagger. Thankfully the sword wasn't covered in the potion, so all I had to worry about now is getting stabbed in a fatal place.

I put my bow and arrow away and pulled my dagger out, readying it. Javaad ripped the arrow out of his arm, blood dripping from the wound. He glared at me and adjusted the sword in his left hand. Thankfully he was right handed, so he was crippled rather badly.

"Think you're so tough with that bow, huh Zayn? Not able to hit me close range so you have to hit me long range. Well you're a coward, and a weakling, and a waste of space on this Earth," he snarled, adjusting his sword to rip a strip from his shirt and bind the wound on his arm.
