Chains Of Blood

Chapter Four

She felt something stabbed in her neck and she rubbed it, her vision was fadding and she couldn't move, the last thing she saw was a syringe in her father's hand.

She woke up in her bed with a bandage around her leg and saw her father standing on her bedside. "Father what happened, why am I bleeding, I can't remember anything" she said she was scared. "Maia, fell over and cut your leg, it's fine if you don't remember anything. Maia couldn't remember anything like her memory was her wiped. She attempted to walk and she fell down, her father catching her, he caught her and carried her downstairs and and placed her on the sofa and put a blanket over her and gave her the TV remote and gave her a kiss on the cheek and walked to the kitchen. Then the front door opened and Matthew can running in, and jumped on Maia, she yelled out in pain, when Matthew jumped on her leg, where the injury was. "Maia, what happened to your leg?" Her little brother asked. "I fell", she said. Jonathan and father were talking again, it was only for moment and then me and Matthew started to watch power rangers, Matthew sat in front of me lying down, I hugged him. I could Jonathan and father talking, even though she knew they where in the kitchen. "Maia, got attacked by one of the demons in the attic, she got bit, she will be fine, I gave her my experimental dose, she couldn't remember anything that happened to her" her father explained. "When will the plan proceed?" Her brother asked. "Soon, we have to wait, Jonathan", her father's tone was hardening. She was very confused and felt betrayed at the same time. She didn't have the best relationship with her father and her brother, so she didn't think anything of it. She was just worried about the future of her life.

*FLASHBACK END*

Still tied up she was silent, while trying to pull herself free, she fell off her bed and her back hit her bedside table, her skin scraped the corner of the table, she felt the blood trickle down her backside, she moaned in pain. With anything reason she managed to get the restraints off and took off the cloth covering her mouth. The only problem she had left was she was still locked in her room.

Maia hid behind the door and hid next to the door, Maia screamed long and loudly. Jonathan came rushing into the room, Maia walked behind him and kicked him and he fell forwards on the bed and he turned around and growled at her. Maia slammed the door shut and locked the door. "Maia, open this door" he yelled. "I have to save Lacey, I have to save my girlfriend, Jonathan, even if it kills me" Maia voice was breaking. Maia grabbed her bag and coat and rushed out the door, she ran all the way to Lacey's house and saw that her parents where home. She was knocking on the door, very calmly. The door opened, her mother was in front of her, "Where's Lacey?", she said. "Maia, how nice to see you, she upstairs" Lacey's mother said. "Thanks", she said quickly. She ran upstairs and rushed into room. "Lacey" she said.

"You're okay, oh my god" Maia said. She saw her girlfriend, she is okay. Her father lied to her, but why, she didn't know why. "Maia, what are you talking about I'm fine, its like seven in the morning, what's wrong?" She said confused. "It's just, my father he came, I thought he took you away from me" she said breathless. "What, are you okay, did he hurt you?", Lacey said. "No, not really, but it doesn't matter", "I just....I don't know" Maia said. "Alright, Maia, I am going on holiday now with my family, so I'm sorry for what happened, but I have to go" she said. Maia understood and she wasn't annoyed at her girlfriend, she knew she couldn't be the centre of attention. Maia kissed Lacey and then Maia ran out of the house and back to Jonathan, knowing he would probably kill her for what she did.

Once she got home, she unlocked the door and Jonathan grabbed her wrist and threw her across the room, she hit the wooden chair, breaking it into splinters. She saw her bleeding arm and the blood and dripping down the deep cut, with bits of skin curling around the sides. She grasp our in pain, her brother's eyes were like black, long tunnels which had no end.

"Jonathan....", she said, out of breath. He didn't say anything, he just looked at me, he looked betrayed. "....please stop", she was still catching her breath. "You're acting like father, stop it", she screamed at him. He ejected his claws and teeth out, his veins were bold and black. Maia growled back at him, with the same eyes, claws and teeth but her veins were red. Then the door opened behind them both, Jonathan was leaning down ready to strike at his sister. Maia saw William, "Maia...", he said speechless. William with delay, rushed towards the kitchen, opened the drawer and stabbed a knife through Jonathan the side on his body. He fell to his knees and William grabbed Maia wrist and pulled her up and pulled her towards him. Jonathan grabbed his sister around her waist, she screamed, "William....". Jonathan was too strong for him and he dragged his sister towards himself. William fell forward and Maia and Jonathan fell backwards. She tried to crawl away from her brother towards William. Her brother was dragging her back, "You little shit, come back here", her brother yelled. William kicked Jonathan and Maia was pulled up by William, they were both holding each to her wrists. Jonathan stood up on his feet, like he wasn't injured, like nothing happened to him, it scared her.
