Our Only Hope

The Assault

1 week later...

3rd POV

Once the ship lifted off last week Lilith has done nothing but train all week but this time she had a partner. After what seemed like forever it was finally Liliths turn to train in the training room with Dolion.

"It about time," Lilith said to the guy who exited the training room. Lilith realized that Dolion was staring at the floor and wasn't focusing at all. "Dolion are you ok, it seems like since last week you haven't really been yourself did something happen."

Dolion now looking her in the eyes explained, "No...sorry I've just been calculating a lot...anyway let's get started." Before they could continue the door to their training room was opened and Klaus walked in with a wicked smile on his face.

"Hello I apologize for interrupting but it appears my technician found a way to speed up our ship so we'll be on planet earth a month sooner than expected...that won't be a problem...right Dolion." Dolion now with an emotionless expression replied, "of course not father the sooner the better"

"Perfect then I might as well explain our plan to you both...the ashronian boy that we are targeting is called Ethan Monroe his little 5-year-old brother the one who Dolion will kidnap and kill first is called Kai Monroe, the father is called David Monroe, and the pregnant mother is known as Isabelle Monroe.

The plan is that when we are close to earth we believe he will be able to sense us causing him and your sister to leave his house because he will want to draw us away from his family. During that time my men will take down any human police or army that tries to stop us, this commotion will be the perfect distraction to get you to kidnap his family it's up to you but if the father resists we don't need him so you can kill him if you want."

"Ok, then what're we supposed to do with the pregnant mother and the brat?" Lilith questioned. Well, we will hold the mother hostage and use the 5-year-old boy to lure Ethan and your sister out of hiding. We will give them an hour to reach us but the moment he reaches your destination give him the hope of saving his brother then kill the 5-year-old on the spot that way Ethan will lose rationality and he won't be able to think properly then you can use that to your advantage to fight and kill him.

And while this is going on Lilith you will be fighting your sister who will no doubt be just as powerful as the ashronian boy so don't let her fool you I want her and that ashronian boy dead no matter the cost, they are the only ones who can stop us from taking over this universe so I can't take any chances...Do you understand Dolion?"

"Understood," Dolion stated monotonously. Klaus then gave his son the death glare before he walked out. Lilith looked at Dolion who was looking as tho he didn't care at all. "Hey, are you sure you're ok?" Lilith asked worriedly. "Yeah...let's start," Dolion stated with a bored tone.

"Just saying I'm kind of excited to see my sister after so long...too bad I have to kill her tho, but that doesn't mean I'm not gonna be sad about it, she is family after all," Lilith explained. Dolion had a soft smile and walked up to her and laid his head on her shoulder and whispered, "Don't react because they're watching us but what if we run away together just the two of us away from this mess, away from my father." Lilith taken back by what he said took a few seconds then quietly responded, " Dolion you and I both know that even the farthest planet in the universe isn't far enough away from your father's wrath and when he does find us he would torture us in the most brutal way possible before he kills us...it just isn't a good idea."

Dolion lifted his head up and smiled, "Yeah your right it was just a thought, just know tho, I'll always protect you." Lilith smiled back and responded, "I know." before kissing him gently on the lips. Dolion kissed her back before stating, "Lilith I'm sorry I'm not feeling very good can I train with you tomorrow." Lilith put her hand gently on his forehead before releasing it quickly after as her eyes widened with shock "Dolion your boiling hot, I don't get it you were fine a second ago!" Right as soon as she finished her sentence Dolion collapsed as he started breathing heavily. "Oh my god...GUARDS COME QUICK DOLION COLLAPSED!!"

After about 30 seconds 2 guards came in with a nurse. The nurse came and checked his pulse, "He's crashing...I need a stretcher in here immediately we have to take him to my clinic.

After a couple of seconds, they removed Dollion from Lilith's arms and sent him to the doctor's office and stabilized him, and began to run some tests. After about an hour Dollion still wasn't awake and had several seizures throughout that time. Once the test results came back they explained to Lilith what happened to him.

"It appears that he had high doses of poison in his system that caused all of this, we were lucky we caught it on time cause if not he would be in a coma for at least a month with brain damage, is there anything that Dolion ate that you remember so that we could report it to his father and have the person responsible arrested for treason."

Lilith still shocked by the news responded, " He hasn't eaten anything in the past 24 hours cause he wasn't feeling hungry but he did have a couple of drinks...with...his...father." Mumbling the last part of her sentence Lilith rushed out of the room to go find Klaus.

After being told Klaus was in his office she rushed in and slammed the door behind her getting Klaus's attention. "You sick son of a bitch, you poisoned your own son...HE ALMOST DIED!!!" Lilith yelled. "The poison wasn't enough to kill him calm-" Klaus unable to finish his sentence for he was too busy catching Lilith's foot from slamming into his side. "You are so stupid...just like your father," Klaus explained after throwing Lilith against the wall.

Lilith recovering from getting thrown against the wall asked rather hesitantly, " What do you know about my father?" "I know I'm the one who killed him...he was a lot easier to kill than your mother I blasted a hole straight through her but the bitch just wouldn't die eventually when the planet exploded she went with it...finally."

Lilith almost in tears started screaming as she charged towards him unfortunately it was a futile attempt for he easily avoided her punch and grabbed her same arm while also grabbing a pencil on his desk and slamming the pencil straight through her hand and against the wall pinning her to it. "AHHH...fuck" Lilith screamed as she tried to free her hand but again it was no use.

"God will you shut up...you know I really tried to be sentimental since you look like my little brother and all, but I couldn't you just annoy me too much...you want to know why I killed your parents simple the same reason why I killed your grandparents because I wanted too, that and they were in my way from becoming king of Ashron.

I'm the firstborn I should've been the one to take the crown but instead, they gave it to little James because I wasn't "fit" to rule. So, of course, I killed them then I ran to axel and became king here."

"You're a monster," Lilith exclaimed. "I'm no more of a monster than you are sweetheart I killed my little brother just like how you are trying to kill your little twin sister. In fact, we are more alike than you think." Klaus stated amused. "Your wrong I would never ever no matter how mad I am I would never try to kill my own kid." Lilith defended.

"Oh lord, you and the doctors are overreacting the dose wasn't high enough to kill him hell be fine in a few days that was more of a warning to him on what happens when he disobeys me. But anyway moving on just like how you want to kill your sister and rule the world I want to do the same even if Dollion gets in my way.

So if you don't pull your part of this mission I will kill him no hesitation then I'll torture you for a couple of days and eventually when you can't scream anymore that's when I'll end you...got it." Lilith began to chuckle causing Klaus to get confused as she forcefully pulled her hand out of the pencil.

"Screw you... fine we are a little alike but eventually, I'm gonna want to be the only ruler of this universe with only you standing in my way and when that day comes I will kill you." Lilith explained.

"awe sweetheart I doubt that will happen but go ahead and dream big but let's be honest the only person you show any kindness to is my son... and showing kindness while treating everyone else around like they are nothing but garbage in your way, that is the definition of a monster, but I have no weaknesses, not even my son is a weakness and as long as he's your weakness you will never succeed in ruling this universe so go ahead and try to kill me I look forward to the day when I can go all out against you."

And with that said Lilith slammed the door and rushed out of the office and to the hospital to go and check on Dolion. "Only 2 more months until I get to see you sister and I can't wait till the day comes that I take everything away from you just as you did to me."
