BROKEN

CH.5-the truth

*ACE'S POV*

I'm glad that I spoke to her.

It's strange to think that we can still talk like bestfriends after nine years.

Nine years.

How did I live that long without her?

"You didn't. There's a difference between surviving and living."

"What are you thinking about?" Fin said resting his hand on my shoulder as I sat in the library.

"Don't touch me." I growled.

"You know, Amity is going to be put back in contact with the association," he said releasing his hand from my shoulder.

"Why should I care?"

"You should care because my master has given her a mission to fulfill before she is to join the association."

"Oh yeah? Still don't care."

"The mission may or may not involve a certain girl that you hold dear and-"

I grabbed him by the collar and threw him against the wall before he could say anything else.

"What did Cloud tell her to do to Kara!?" I yelled grabbing his neck and lifting him in the air.

"He knows you care for her. He thinks if she is killed off that you'll become too weak to do anything or you'll finally give up and end it all. Actually, I'm not sure what that crazy pureblood thinks. All I know is the minute she kills her, I'll have a smile on my face as I watch you cower in pain."

"She won't kill her. Amity may have the blood of her family line coursing through her, but she has heart and Kara is her best friend. She won't touch her and if she does, you'll get a front row seat to the murder of your pathetic sister. Let me guess, the association found out about your not killing me and decided to get your sister to do the dirty work instead."

"The association doesn't know. They just want to lower your standards a little more than they already are if that's possible. You don't have any right to call my sister pathetic when you yourself are worse off. You are nothing but a coward who is too afraid to kill people."

"I'm not afraid to kill and I'll prove that to you now if you want," I barked tightening my grip around his neck.

I just watched him struggle as my fingers tightened. I could just hear his blood coursing through his veins and the sound made me sick. I wouldn't drink this guys blood if someone forced me to.

"I have a question before I kill you." I muttered.

"What do you want, demon?" he coughed.

"I want to know why you aren't a pureblood yourself if there are purebloods making up your lineage."

"My grandmother had 3 sons and one daughter. Her daughter married one of her brothers to continue the lineage. One of the sons didn't marry which was my uncle and my father who took up hunting because he hated what he was married a human vampire hunter that he met while working at the association."

"But that would still make you a semi vampire."

"Exactly." He said with a grin as his eyes slowly turned into a shade of red and he grabbed my hand and threw me across the room.

"You honestly didn't believe I would just let you finish me off did you?" He said as his eyes turned blue again and he shot me in the same shoulder with the scarlet fragment.

"So you're a blood sucker too huh? Is Amity one too?" I muttered as I grabbed my shoulder.

It's been through a lot.
