Hero?

The movie just ended when the sound of gunfire is heard. Jacob and Ana look up in shock. "Jacob, get Ana to her room and out the safety escape." Calum orders as the men rush from wherever they were before to take defensive positions.

Jackson comes racing in from outside and pulls the two out of the room they were in and shoves them to the stairs. "Get going, Ana! Jacob! Get your asses out of here now! Jacob, you are in charge of her safety. Go!"

Ana and Jacob race up the stairs. They go into Ana's room, but Ana instead of going to her walk-in closet where the escape route is goes over to Damen's room and races to his secret entrance to the study. "Ana! What the hell do you think you are doing? We have to get out of here." Ana ignores him and opens the entrance and steps down the stairs that will take her to the study.

Jacob has no choice but to follow. Damen is going to kill him if anything happens to Ana. "Ana, what are you doing?"

"I don't have any weapons of my own. I know where Damon keeps some in the study." Ana replies as if the answer is obvious.

"We need to leave and get to safety. Do you have a death wish? or perhaps you wish me dead?" Jacob thinks the second option is the truth.

"Stop being so melodramatic. I just need to get-" just then the door to the study breaks open and Hawk enters. He looks around and finds the two kids and smiles.

Jacob tries to stop him but Hawk just picks him up and throws him against the far wall. Jacob hits and slides down leaving behind a hole in the wall the size of his body.

"Jacob!" Ana screams but he doesn't move. Ana's furious now. The only weapon within reach is Damon's ornamental dagger that he uses for letter opening. She grabs it and hides it against her arm.

Hawk grabs her and brings her up to him. "My aren't you a pretty little thing?" He starts touching her.

Ana's anger is already high from what he did to Jacob, but his touching her like her father makes her beyond furious.

"Damon says, that I don't have to let anyone touch me there if I don't want to, and I don't want you to."

Hawk smiles sickeningly, "Damon isn't here, what are you going to do about it?" Ana could scream, but the sound of guns firing would most likely cover it up. The fact that Hawk is this far in means that Jackson is down too. She is on her own.

The anger Ana feels ignites into an inferno, "This." Ana swipes the dagger across Hawks crotch with as much force as she can. She sees blood on the dagger so she knows that she's scored. That and he lets her drop. She then eviscerates him. As he goes from clutching at his family jewels to clutching his intestines to keep them from falling out, she slices his throat.

"You slimy bastard. The first slice was for touching me, the second for hurting my bodyguards and the third is to stop the fighting." Ana says then spits on him before turning from the dying man to check on Jacob. She lets out a relieved sigh as she finds him breathing and a strong steady heart beat.

"Jackson!" Ana Calls hoping that he isn't too hurt. Jackson pulls himself into the study holding his gun out, he's bleeding from two locations and Ana is more furious.

"Are you badly injured?" She asks in concern.

Jackson, looking from her to Hawk's mangled form says, "I think I should be asking you that. I'm in better shape than he is."

"I need help." Ana says in frustration.

"Where are you hurt?" Jackson asks urgently. Ana is covered in blood.

"I'm fine, this is all his blood," Ana says shortly.

"Jacob?"

"He's out, but breathing and his heartbeat is strong. I need help cutting Hawk's head off, I'm not strong enough and we need to stop the fighting."
