[Lily's POV]




"Oh my god. Isabelle turn around. Don't look."

"But-"

"Turn around!"

April and Hannah's bodies were battered and broken, their eyes wide and unseeing. April was in worse shape. Her long once beautiful hair was matted with fresh blood. Her mouth was parted and a single line of blood dripped out. Her fingers were curled around something.

I rushed over, my hands prying hers open. My eyes widened as I saw what was inside. It was a necklace- my necklace. My key necklace my grandmother had given me that day at the train station. It's blue jewels were still bright and shining as I took it in my hand. The chain was snapped in two, making it impossible to put around my neck.

I hadn't known April for long- I barely knew her. Yet she seemed so nice, so gentle. Her caring eyes had always been welcoming and bright. My fingers brushed against her eyelids softly. I slid them down, her eyes closing forever.

I gasped as I felt a hand touch my free hand. I spun around, my eyes widening as I saw Hannah coughing. She wasn't dead. I wasn't sure wether to feel happy or angered. She had tried to get us killed. But she was a person no person deserved a death like this. Her eyes were still cold as she blinked slowly, her bloodied fingers wiggling. She had an arrow through her stomach and a bite mark on her neck. Not only had a vampire bit her but they had attacked her with weapons.

Hannah would die either way. She was loosing too much blood too fast. Her hands were already starting to twitch before stopping. Her eye's were half open half closed as she let out a painful groan. Her dry lips parted as she stared at me.

"P-project" she muttered to me. Her eyes closed and she fell limp. Her raspy breaths were no longer heard. She was dead.

I let out the choked breath that I had been holding. They were dead-but questions still remained. Where were the others? Jenna, Marcel and Perrie? Who did this? What exactly happened? How did April get my necklace? So many unanswered questions.

In a way, Hannah had saved my life. If I had went with them, who knows what would have happened. Would I be the one in their place? Would I be able to protect Isabelle till I took my last breath?

"Can I look now?"

"No-"

"L-lily." Isabelle's soft voice cried. I turned to see that she had turned around. Her eyes were wide and filled with tears that were already starting to travel down her face.

"Shh...Isabelle...." I walked over bending down and holding her in my arms. She wept, everytime her gaze flickered over to their bodies she would let out another wail. Her cries eventually died down.

"Are they d-dead?" She asked, holding onto me tightly as she saw their bodies, dripping with blood. There was no point in lying to her.

"Yes, Isabelle. They're dead." I agreed, glancing at them. A sudden noise of someones foot scraping against the ground from behind us man me jump. I turned slowly to see a person looming over us. His blue eyes sparkling. His hands were raised as if he was about to grab us and choke us but he put them down.

"I-I can't do it." he cried. "I just can't do it."

"Can't do what Louis? Kill us?" I sneered, anger rising in me as I saw the face of my families murderous. I wasn't going to let that go. Ever. I even found the courage to push him backwards, sending him stumbling slightly as he was unprepared.

"I can't. I just can't."

"Why?!" I screamed in his face. My angry voice echoed through the stone walls and back. "You didn't have any trouble killing my family!"

"Your too important to Harry ok! I didn't see it before but I see it now. You mean so much to him Lily! But I know you'll end up hurting him in the end like she did!"

"Who is she?!" I was tired of hearing everyone constantly say 'she' or 'her'. I needed to know.

"Helena! Have you ever wondered why Harry is so bitter? Harry and Helena were inseparable, they were in love. But then she left- leaving just a note. 'I'm sorry Harry but I've moved on.' He was heartbroken. Then a few days later his family disappeared without a trace. You'll be the same Lily, I know it. You'll leave him heartbroken and this time, he won't be able to recover." Louis shouted. His breaths were heavy and his hands in fists. I was frozen with disbelief. That's why Harry was so bitter. They'd left him. Everyone but his best mates who stood by his side.

"But your wrong Louis. I won't leave him. I'm not her." I said softly. It was true. I wouldn't.

Before Louis could open his mouth to speak, quick footsteps could be heard. Soon a man rushed in, panting. He was wearing a lab coat- most likely one of Liam's scientists. His face was paled and his expression was horrified.

"M-my king! K-king Louis!" he stuttered.

"What is it Jake?" Louis asked, worried.

"R-remember how a few days ago, L-lord Harry gave L-lord Liam his blood? F-for the project? T-the project was c-completed last night."

"And?" Louis pressed.

"The battle at the kingdom was just a decoy. Someone slipped past the defenses of the lab caused my the chaos." he took a shaky breath.

"Someone stole the project."

So...Chapter twenty! OMG someone stole the project! For those who forgot, who ever drinks the project will have all the abilities the lords and king have. Zayns ability to see a bit of the future, Niall's ability to heal, Liam's smarty pants brain, Harry's fighting ability and Louis's power which is still yet to come!
