*Brandon's POV*

Chris looked back behind him at me and Josh. We looked at each other then at the two in front of the car. Cracking our knuckles I can't help but feel like I know one of them. Call it a hunch of mine. I became a member of the Cerulli coven not that long ago. A year ago I think it was. I was apart of a different coven for the past 255 years. So yeah you could say I was born into the coven thanks to my parents. I'd rather not talk about what coven that was. The girl stepped in front of the dude that had pushed her behind him.

"Brandon?" I KNOW THAT VOICE! But it can't be her. No it's not possible I saw her die! I saw one of my best friends kill her. I quick looked around to see everyone staring at me. What?

"Sami?! Is that really you?!" She smiled and ran towards me. I picked her up and hugged her. Not wanting to let her go though. I saw her die once and I don't want to see it happen again. I could tell she was dying along with the rest of her new coven. "I thought you were dead! No. I know you're dead I saw Trevor kill you. Your brother killed you in front of the whole search party!" I was starting to get pissed. We all saw her die. Hell Trevor made me pour the gas on her. He said we were only going to find her and bring her home. Sami shook her head. "How?"

"No you all thought he did though. I remember him telling you to dump the gas on me. Thanks for doing that by the way I couldn't get the smell off for weeks." Yea not to happy with myself for that. "You of all people should have known I couldn't be stopped that easily. You were one of my guards weren't you? You were also the strongest out of everyone in the coven were you not?" She had a point. "You couldn't even take me down by yourself." Another good point. "Not that you ever really did or wanted to. Unless it involved rope and handcuffs." The guy behind her shifted uncomfortably.

Astrid was staring at him trying to figure something out. My guess is that he's Sami's mate and was getting protective of her for that reason. That and he wasn't to comfortable with her talking about that. To be honest it kind of made me feel really awkward.

"Shut up. Tell us where you took Willow and go back to your fucking mate." She didn't move she just continued to stare at me. I knew something no one else did about her. She was deathly afraid of her brother. And for that matter the coven now that he has taken over. "Fine wanna play that way? Expect to see your brother tomorrow early morning. Tell him I said hi won't you." Fear took over any and all emotions in her. She didn't know I was bluffing though. No one did.

"Fine. I'll take you to her. Oh! By the way Brandon. You know how we always said 'Down with the king!' Didn't expect you to be his little guard dog. Or at least one of them. Seriously thought you would know better after what happened to your parents." I looked down and started walking back down the hill where Willow fell. No one followed. I didn't think they would.

They went with her to get Willow back. I don't know what to do anymore. Chris didn't kill my parents. His Mom and Dad did after the attack on his coven that was blamed on us. Come to find out it was Astrid's parents coven the whole time. With so many things running around in my head I didn't pay any attention to where I was going.

After a while I stopped and looked around. Great I'm in the middle of nowhere in the Badlands. I sat down and as soon as I did I passed out. I must have been walking longer than I thought.

*Sami's POV*

Brandon has been gone for awhile now. I was starting to worry. Most who got out into the night in the Badlands never come back. He was like the big brother I never had. Well I had a big brother, but he tried to kill me and thought he had succeeded. We got to the house and as usual Connie was staring at the TV. Stevie messing with her Bass. Magz was on the phone. Crystal was blogging about My Little Ponies and Black Veil Brides. Victor was being himself and raiding the fridge... again. He's the reason we have no food right now. He keeps eating it all. By this time next week I wouldn't be surprised if we started to die off one by one.

"Daddy! Mommy!" I turned to see Willow running to her parents. I wish my parents were still here. Kind of. Not really. My parents didn't love me. They were terrified of me. If I were them I would have been afraid of me to.

"Stay here I'm going to find Brandon before he gets himself killed." Everyone looked at me and I left. He could be anywhere out here and so could my brother. "Oh and Connie you're in charge until I get back." Time to either get myself killed or somehow make it out of this alive.
