Calypso locks eyes with me and smiles .
"He's mine girl, he gave up resistance to me to save your little sister. Fair trade to me but its looking bad for you hunny" she says her voice a mark of cruelty veiled with faux sympathy.
"So what your going to kill us and live happily ever after with my man. I don't think it's going to play out like that" I say glaring at her.
"Wow you're so close. No He is going to kill you then we'll live happily ever after,I just have to watch" she turns to Noah "Baby do me a favor and take care of the angelic meat shield in front of your ex's sister"
Noah looks at Colton a moment and says "A pleasure" his razor sharp canines extended and visible from my place across the table.
Noah jumps forward,faster than most can see bit I still catch the movement. His nails shifting to claws and slashing at Colton who catches one arm just to be struck with a viscous blow from the other. Sammie backs up to take cover. Noah raises his arm to hit sammie. I rush over their to have enough time to grab his arm and force him back away from her. He looks at me and blinks blankly and I hear Calypso say "just get rid of her baby" he lashes out at me with his claws staring me in the eyes. I jump back and say "Noah please I know your in there your stronger than her". I hold my hand out to touch his cheek. "Wow the cliche line lovely is there going to be a 'I love you more than whatever power she has' line " Calypso says. Noah grabs my hand and for a second I loosen and then I'm sailing through the air landing next to Uela and Xalvo on the table. I stand up weakly and say "do whatever you want to me I feel nothing inside you've taken everything from me".
Xalvo looks down at me disapprovingly and puts Uela down, and leaps at Noah slamming him to the ground. Noah grabs Xalvos neck and says " so much for obey me always eh buddy" and throws him through the ceiling. Uela screams "Xalvo!". I get up and charge at Noah, my claws extend and I slash Noah's chest ripping his shirt. Noah looks down distastefully at his shredded shirt and cuts the rest of it off. The scars covering him visible. Then like it had always been there a sword sticks out of his chest. Raniel stands behind him and whispers in his ear " So if you two are over I'd love to take Shiloh to dinner" Raniel puts his foot on Noah's back and slams him to the ground while removing the sword. He looks up and winks at me. Calypso screams "Noah! Get up and destroy them". "What do you think I'm doing" Noah snaps at her while pushing himself up. Raniel looks at me and says "At your orders milady". I say " get the chains from Noah's room". Raniel lifts his eyebrows at me and smiles before a fist smashes into his jaw and his sword falls to the ground. Noah finishes picking himself up and grabs the sword focusing back on me. Raniel gets up behind him and nods at me and runs to the staircase. I say "come at me" taking out my sword. Noah chuckles and swings the sword at me ,I block it and punch him in the gut. He absorbs the hit and swings again adding a flourish that cuts my leg. I chuckle and say "is that all you got". I swing at him slicing his stomach. Noah looks down and says " well there's this" his arm shoots to the side and yanks out a concrete piece of the wall off and slams it against my face pain flashes across the entire right side and I hit the floor. I get up and say " you hit like a bitch...my tu-"
I'm cut off by him thrusting his sword through my shoulder and sweeping my leg out. I fall on my side and reach at the steel buried in my shoulder. I yank it out and get up again and twirl behind him slicing his back. My claws extend more and I shove them into his back. He laughs ominously and fur covers his body sharp wolf ears take place atop his head and his human ones are gone. He howls and his tail wraps around me like that one time he was flirting with me. Then it squeezes and yanks me away and tosses me off I land on my feet and he turns to face me. His fierce lycan-like face and wolf eyes staring into mine. Then a loud shot rings out through the hall and he growls and looks over turning his towering figure the other way. Sam is there holding a smoking rifle and starts lighting Noah up screaming and backing up. I jump on his back wrapping my arms around him strangling him. Raniel runs back and I yell "chain Calypso". " Sam go help him". I yell at Sam. Calypso smiles at Raniel and says "damn took you forever. Anyway I'm glad to be a part of this now" she laughs and the chain in Raniels comes alive and reaches up at his throat. "Bitch your predictable" he says and jumps at her the chain wraps around both of them and he smiles and says "helloooo pretty lady" and plants an obnoxious kiss on Calypso. I would laugh if I wasn't hanging for dear life trying to squeeze the breathe from Noah. Noah tosses me off and I grab my sword and run toward Noah and jump back on his back and pierce him with the sword. He falls to the ground and I get off of him. I grab his arm and drag him and drops him in front of Calypso. I say "wanna see a new trick I've learned just for you". I remember what Raniel told me to just let it take over. The blue mist comes from my fingers once again and I say " do you know what this does". She says "no fucking way". She screams and a blast of energy sends me through the wall. I have to get to him and she won't let that happen. I hit the ground and the pain sets in I turn over and jump Xalvo is there out cold, but still breathing. I crawl over to him and slap his cheeks waking him up. I say " Xalvo get up we're getting our asses kicked". He opens his eyes and weakly gets up and helps me up and he shifts into his true huge molten magma wolflike demon. We rush back through the hole in the wall and I say "oh Calypso did you miss me bitch?".
I focus on her no later longer chained and tossing a beaten and unconcious Raniel to the ground. Tati has her hands busy throwing every harmful magical thing she can at him including some burns that have probably added to Noahs long list of scars. Colton has Sam in his arms as he is flying and she's shooting down at Noah. Despite all the attacks and damage nothing is stopping them. Something needs to change. Uela is collapsed on the broken dining room table with several cuts that I feel very potently. Xalvo trots over to her and licks her cuts. He turns to Calypso and growls at her lava dripping from his teeth. He braces to run at her but she just turns to him and smiles and he's stands wisely still hackles raised. We are really getting our asses kicked. Everyone is either busy trying to take Noah down or unconcious. I run to the table jumping over Uela's body and roll to the weapons.Guns,useless. Swords, trash. tranquilizer gun, nothing but a toy. Ughh nothing. My foot hits something I look down and theres 6 bricks of C4 explosive there. The detonater has been smashed by the table. I scream to Colton " get Sam out of here now!" He looks at me doubtfully and flies up to the hole in the ceiling "no stop !" Sams yelling at him. He flies up and out and I look at noah and run at him and strike him uselessly on the back. He looks at me and I'm staring up at a mindless beast where my Noah should be. I run as fast as I can towards the table. Noah gets down on all fours and bounds after me an ice spike hits him from tatis magic and he still keeps running. I dodge a claw and I hear someone yell. The blood pumping in my ears doesn't allow me to make it out I look up and its Joseph tossing me something. His sword. The sword. I jump high and grab it and land on the table tumbling to the ground after tripping on something. I don't have time to see what it is I can only hope. I sling the sword in Calypsos direction. I hear her scream. Everything is so blurry I look up and Noah's jumping at me. I hear Tati yelling. And Joseph. I leap forward and chant a spell fasster than I thought I ever could. Noah's long claws pierce through me and I feel it. A spark. Then everything is dust and fire and I can't hear anything I can't keep my eyes open I think I'll throw up.
***
My eyes open and my ears are ringing loud I pick myself up. I don't know where I am I feel mud on my hands. I fall back down my balance is gone all I can do is try to regain my sight and see where I even am. I lay there for what seems like an entire eternity until things come into focused there's wood ,stone,and other debris everywhere I'm in some wooded area and the ringing is fading allowing more noise to come throw I dare to get up again legs weak but this time I succeed.
The trees are destroyed in some places and theres a fog so thick I can't see through it for shit. No not fog. Smoke. Smoke and ashes. I stumble trying to find my way to where I'm going and I have no idea where that is. Slowly things come back to me. The battle. Noah as a wolfdemon. The explosives. They must have gone off when I hoped andy spell worked. The protection spell Noah taught me. Which means thats why I'm not bloody chunks right now. He must be okay to because he was in contact with me. Urgency flashes through my chest. Where is he.
