pure vampire - Chapter 63 ANA vs KIM The Duel
.
……I was so caught up that I didn’t realize I had been stabbed…
………….Until I looked down and saw the tip of the blade….. Covered in my blood…. jutting from the center of my abdomen…..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This happens when you anger a vampire…
Ana Pov
“Look who’s the slut now” Kim whispered in my ear as she forcibly pushed the blade further inside me.
She may have gotten the jump on me because of my distraction but my reflexes are still good. I ignored the pain and reached behind me to lock onto her neck before front flipping her; she flung hard into a nearby tree.
Seb quickly sat up and ripped the blade from my back. It was luckily an ordinary weapon, so as soon as it was removed the wound healed like something was zipping it up. We both then sprang to our feet just as Kim was getting to hers.
“That wasn’t very nice” She said dusting off her very short leather shorts.
Excluding her promiscuous clothing, something was different about her. Kim’s hair was cut short, almost in a pixie style that made her look dangerous instead of cute. Her body also changed; it was well toned and athletic, the gut she was getting from alcohol was gone. I sniffed the air for her scent but found a new one instead. My mind refused to believe what my eyes were telling me. Even so I focused hard on her heartbeat but the only one I could hear was Seb.
The three of continued to circle each other; waiting for one to make a move. Kim watched me as I studied her, like she was waiting for me to say the last words I ever wanted to speak.
“You’re a vampire” I finally said
“Congratulations! Your smarter than you look” She taunted sarcastically. I couldn’t hide my shock. We don’t have a great relationship especially with her trying to kill me, but this isn’t the life I wanted for her.
“Why Kim?” I asked concerned
“Oh shove it Ana! You think you’re the only one who can be a vampire! You think you can have it all! You took Jace, mom, this guy” she said pointing at Seb “And you want to be the only vampire too! Talon was right about you. You do deserve to die” She spat. Her last words had Seb growling. Kim’s eyes darted to him for a second and she actually looked scared before shaking it off.
“I don’t know what lies Talon has told you. But listen to me, he’s playing you. Let me help” I said trying to reason with her. Kim only laughed
“Do you hear yourself?! You’re such an idiot! I just stabbed you and here you are trying to be all reasonable and shit” She ended still chuckling.
From the way she was acting I knew there was no reasoning with her. She seemed a bit mad in the crazy sense. Maybe she’s hyped out. But a small part didn’t want to give up. She is after my sister; whether were blood related or not I don’t care.
“Kim please. There is so much about being a vampire you don’t know” I pleaded
“Talon has taught me and he’ll teach me anything else I need to know. He’s my soul mate” She said proud of herself
“Did he tell you that? Because it most certainly is a lie” Seb piped up to say. Kim narrowed her eyes at him, trying to figure him out. Good luck because I haven’t even figured him out yet. She eventually just shrugged off his comment all together. Kim was in a delusion; one only she could save herself from.
“How’d you find me here?” I asked. It not like I was just waiting down the road for her to show up and stab me.
“It was easy really. Talon tracked your scents in the forest to the sewers. He sent me down to finish the job but you weren’t in there. Then I saw this wall that moved and waved like water. When I touched it, it sucked me in. After that I followed the sounds of you being a whore to here. By the way what kind of vampire are you that you didn’t even hear me?!” Kim taunted
“That won’t be happening again” Seb jumped in replying in a deep angry tone. I know this isn’t the best time to think about this but I can’t help wondering which part he as referring to. The distracted part or the actions that caused us to be so distracted?
“Look Kim it isn’t too late to put all this behind us and start new” I tried again to reach my sister. I know it may seem foolish after all she’s done to me but if I don’t have hope then what do I have? After our last fight I realized that I’ve spent so much time being angry at her that I never offered her a chance at redemption.
“No thanks. Enough talking too I just want you to die so I can have Talon.” She ended with a sly smile. I watched as darkness bled from her pupil until no whites could be seen. She hissed loudly flashing her new fangs at me. Kim was challenging me to a fight. Seb took a step in her direction; always my protector but my arm stopped him
“No Seb, I got this” I said to him before I faced Kim “You should be warned that you can’t beat me” I told her taking slow steps to her. She laughed at the top of her lungs. Of course Kim didn’t believe me but I was more than willing to prove it to her.
I let my own fangs elongate in an explosive hiss. Kim jumped a little startled but hissed back to cover it. I could see the contemplation in her eyes. She knew I didn’t fear her; just like I knew I was going to show her why she should fear me.
She shrieked loudly before charging. Kim came at me fast but with my enhanced vision it was like watching it in slow motion. Her movements were quick but so uncoordinated. She swung her fist out but I caught it easily. Then pinned it behind her and threw her to the ground.
My sister got up fast and tried again. This time when she swung I just ducked; she tried to punch me several more times and I just ducked and swiveled from them all. I’m going easy on even though she is a vampire.
Kim screamed in frustration, the sound almost made me laugh. Until she decided to cheat. Kim flipped two pocket knives into her hands and charged me again. I grabbed onto both her wrist to stop her from stabbing me in the face and then I head butted her. She stumbled back, dropping the weapons.
I took the opportunity to send my knee smashing hard into her abdominal. Just a little payback from interrupting my moment with Seb. Kim rolled onto the ground grunting in pain. Talon definitely didn’t train her to fight
“What the fuck!” She shouted
“I tried to warn you” I said to her. She only hissed in response as she got back to her feet.
“You know” she said wiping a little blood from her forehead; the cut already healed. “You may be a vampire but I can still see fat, pathetic Analise under all that” She taunted. I folded my arms, forcing myself to stand tall.
“No matter what that’s what you’ll always be. A fat loser with only one equally loser of a friend. No one could ever love you. Mom always felt sorry for you. Dad didn’t realize you existed half the time” She said with a laugh “And Jace! He always knew you liked him!” she continued
“Shut up” I said so low I barely heard it. I knew she was trying to push my button. And it was working; her words were getting to me.
“Jace knew the whole time you were in love with him. We used to laugh about how stupid you were! To think the likes of you could get a guy like him? The thought disgusted him. Just ask, I’m sure he’ll tell you himself. Just like I’m sure this guy over here doesn’t love you either. How could he? Your nothing” Her venomous words had me shaking.
I could feel my eyes water but I refused to let any tear fall. Kim had that triumphant look on her face that she used to have after our fights.
“Don’t listen to her Ana, she’s wrong” Seb whispered beside me but I barely heard him. I was right back to feeling like that fat girl dying to be accepted. I was back two years ago with the whole cafeteria laughing at me. Was she right? Could anyone truly love me? Look what family I grew up in. How could anyone love me? My looks may have changed but has the person within really changed? I looked back at my sister as she smiled evilly at me. She still knew how to hurt without even using her fist.
Something inside me snapped at the moment. I knew my vampire instincts were taking over because my humanity was weakening me. I felt the separation of the two wash over me.
I was hyping…
Over the last two years Seb has helped me keep my hype under control so I never lost myself in it. The only problem was he only taught me how to control my hunger and desire. Not my rage.
And that’s what I’m feeling right now…. Nothing but rage…
I cocked my head to side and smiled a fang filled smile at my sister. Her expression changed to confusion because she thought she had won. She was ready for me to fall on my feet and cry. Well no such luck. I felt my powers bubbling in my core. Strong and dominate. The air began to snap and pop around us as a wind began to pick up
“Ana don’t! You can control it!” Seb yelled over the now howling wind.
It was no use.
My anger was all I could focus on. Kim began taking cautious steps away from me. Her face finally showed the fear I knew it would. My feet lifted from the ground as I began to levitate. Kim’s jaw literally looked like it hit the ground. It brought me some satisfaction but not enough. I held my hands out as blue blots danced around my fingers.
” Run ” I whispered looking at my sisters frightened face.
She didn’t hesitate and disappeared from sight in seconds. I shot my palms out and two bolts sprang from the. Each so powerful that they turned the trees they hit into ash. Seb was yelling but I couldn’t make out what he was saying. I was too eager to chase down my prey. I lowed myself to the ground preferring to run.
I could hear Kim’s desperate steps up ahead. The speed we were going would look like a blur to human eyes. Just to mess with her I threw another bolt out and hit the tree beside.
“Shit!” She screamed using her arms to protect her head.
From the direction she was traveling I realized she was heading right for the portal. Oh no you don’t. Kim had awaken the monster inside me, now she has to face it.
A few feet away from the portal I tackled her hard to the ground. We rolled as she tried to escape me, but I wouldn’t allow it. Her fear fed my need to cause her more. When we stopped I punched her hard in face and got up.
“Come on Kim, that’s the best you got” I taunted.
She wiped her bloody lip and glanced at the doorway that I made sure I was positioned in front of. She must have known it was no use because she slowly rose to her feet. Kim opened her mouth to say something but I was in no mode to hear her voice again.
Moving like the wind I was on her wrapping my hand around her throat. She tried to pry it off but that only made me tighten my hold as I levitated both of us off the ground. Her black eyes widened with the realization that she had pushed me too far. Any second now I could kill her…
Out of nowhere a massive body tackled me to the ground. I lost my grip on Kim as we fell. I landed hard on my back with the weight of another on top of me. When I opened my eyes a pair of glowing yellow ones were staring angrily back at me. Seb…
I hissed at him, pissed he had just stopped me, but he only growled at me in response while still holding me down. On a breeze I caught the scent of the others approaching.
Acting quickly I used my strength and shoved Seb away. He flew back a few feet and skidded to the forest floor. Kim was making a dash for the portal and I threw a bolt her way to stop her.
But just as I was getting to my feet invisible ropes wrapped around my body locking me in place. I couldn’t move no matter how hard I tried. Suddenly Jace and the others broke through the trees
“What’s happening to me?!” I screamed struggling to break free of my invisible prison. Jace walked up to me and he was holding out his hand and chanting.
“It’s a restraint spell” He said before going back to his chanting. I hissed loudly. So irritated that it was him holding me back. Probably didn’t want to see his girlfriend killed.
“This has been fun! Until next time little sis” Kim teased before diving into the portal
“NO!” I yelled doubling my efforts. I could feel the ties on me loosening
“Someone calm her down! She’s too strong I can’t hold it much longer!” Jace shouted now using two hands and chanting even faster.
“What’s wrong with her? Why does she look so evil with those red eyes?” Simon asked concerned and fearful.
“She hyped” Seb said recovering and walking to me “Ana remember who you are. Calm down please. This isn’t you” He said gently.
I ignored him and continued trying to free myself. “I hate to do this but you aren’t giving me any other choice” He added. I didn’t know what he meant but I didn’t care. One of my arms was free and I could feel my power building back up like I was going to burst. “I’m sorry ” Seb whispered as he moved behind. I held my hand out ready to blast Jace when I felt a tiny prick in the back of my neck. And then everything went black…
