"So Hope, what are we going to do now?"

Hope POV

Sometimes in life you are faced with difficult choices. Not just that but life or death choices. Choices that years later will wake you up in the middle of the night to remind you of what you had done. A choice that might haunt you for the rest of your life until you finally left this world. 

I know that because I was about to make one. 

One that could change everything.

On one hand my Dad was fighting for his life against wolves that were trying to kill him. I did not want to lose him but on the other hand Josie had both hands on someone's neck but the wolf had aim and was ready to shoot. I had to make up my mind quick. I chose and ran at the guy just as the arrow fired. I crashed against him and we went to the ground in a tumble. I snapped his neck in quick succession while looking at Josie. Jade had stopped the arrow and nodded to me.

After making sure Josie was safe I looked my Dad almost expecting the worst. To my shock but not total surprise Lizzie was standing beside him holding the neckless I gave him. The werewolf's that had previously had him cornered were now littered on the ground. My Dad smiled at Lizzie before jumping back into action.

I stood up and a pain ripped through my shoulder. The place were the arrow hit felt like it was on fire. That just added to the wound I still had on my stomach. If it wasn't for the vampire blood in my body I wouldn't have been able to walk at this point but even it couldn't heal these injuries that quick. My body was tingling. A strange sensation that I couldn't quite place right now. I couldn't think about it right now.

I had to reach Lizzie. 

I began walking before I was pulled back and something connected with my face. I fell and felt something slash across my face. I held it as a searing pain came with it.

I looked up and I couldn't believe who I saw.

"Penelope?"

Lizzie POV

After fending off more werewolf's and helping some witches deal with a pile of them I made my way to another street where I saw Hope's Dad wrapped up with four of them. He was a bit trapped but still managed to rip ones heart out. I quickly ran and hit one in the face while taking magic from Klaus. I used a water spell to hit the other one who was caught off guard. 

Klaus quickly grabbed him by the shirt and bit down on his neck before draining him of blood. He quickly let his body drop and turned around to me with a smile. 

"Thank you love. That is some quick thinking there."

"I know this is not the right moment but is it possible I could have that neckless. It's really important that Hope wears it."

Klaus glanced down and without a second thought gave it to me.

"No problem. Make sure she gets it. Now I need to get back to it."

A werewolf had jumped up and was coming for Klaus but he turned and in one swift moment caught her and tore her head off before letting the body drop down. He shifted into a werewolf and took off in the battle again. I went to look for my girlfriend.

I had to get this neckless to Hope.

Josie POV

Jade and I had made it up to a rooftop. Wolves coming behind us as we knocked them back and kept climbing higher. Jade bit the neck of a werewolf and tossed them off the roof. I cast a fire spell to send some running as they caught on fire screaming as they went. There was more coming. I looked to the other roofs and saw wolves approaching as they all were coming at us at once.
