It was morning the next day. More importantly, two days until the full moon. Two days until Apollo takes Harry from me. Two days until my world would crumble. Two days until I would lose the one that I truly loved with all my heart.

The door to my room opened and Zachariah walked in. He smiled his lovely smile at me and sat next to me on the bed. Zach really did seem like a great guy. It sucks that I'm about to do this, but I have to; I have to save Harry.

"I'm so sorry," I apologised in advance.

Confusion filled his facial features for a brief moment before his eyes were overcome by the pain in his chest. I took no time to see if I'd stabbed him directly in the heart with the silver knife. Instead I raced down the steps and out the door, ridding myself of the glove I wore in the process.

I really needed to get out of here as soon as possible. The only problem was the gigantic black metal fence in the front. My eyes closed, feeling defeated, when there was a creaking sound. I peaked with one eye and saw the fence opening gradually. Once there was enough room, I ran straight out and in any direction which was away from that creepy mansion.

As I reached the centre of a town, it seemed to look a bit familiar. Yes. This is where Dacey and I went "shopping". The house isn't too far from here. I raced round the pavement trying to find my way. Soon enough the house came into view and I was skidding across the gravelled drive up to the door. I banged on the front door repeatedly until someone answered. Zayn looked at me with his eyebrow raised.

"Where's Harry?"

"He's upstairs."

"Thanks."

I pushed past him and went to Harry's room. When I opened his door he looked up from his position on the bed where he'd held his head in his hands. His eyes looked like he'd been crying. I wanted to hold him and tell him it was all okay, but we needed to get out of here and find my mother.

"Callie?"

"It's me. But listen, we need to go."

"I thought you were dead."

"No, Harry; I would never leave you."

He didn't say a word, just got up and cupped my face in his hands, pulling me into a kiss that felt like it could last forever. When I pulled back Harry looked disappointed.

"We really need to get going."

"Where?"

"To my mother."

"Selene?"

"Yes."

"Where is she?"

"Come with me Harry. Trust me."

He nodded slowly and I took his hand dragging him out of the room, down the steps, out the front door, and into the woods. I'm sure he was thinking I was crazy right now, but I didn't care. Something was telling me it was this way and so I went.

After a whilst of walking a gazebo came into view. There were outlines of bodies visible from our distance. I dragged Harry with me as my pace quickened. When we got there it was not what I'd expected.

Apollo stood in the centre of the gazebo with his arms crossed. There was a lady with long black hair tied up to a chair. Her eyes met mine and I knew that was my mother. Apollo gave a sinister smirk and looked over at Harry.

"Good, you've brought the boy. I'll take him, thank you."

"Never," I replied stepping in front of Harry.

His smile turned to a frown as he shoved me aside, sending me into the railing of the gazebo. He smiled at me as he took Harry and snapped his neck right in front of my eyes. I fell to my knees and tears poured down my face as a silent scream left my lips.

"I told you to bring me my son."

Apollo walked up to my mother and caressed her cheek. She tried to turn away, but he forced her to stay still.

"My darling, Selene. You wouldn't want to see your daughter die, now would you?"

A/N: HARRY IS NOT DEAD GUYS. Just clarifying.
