Chapter 72 - Family reunion 1

Clueless of his intentions, the quick glance I gave told me otherwise; he stood there with a dark fur wolf by his side and before I could address or even be on my feet again, he quickly moved his right hand and I was sent flying in the air but luckily with my added agility I landed on my feet just a couple of meters away from Hunter's body, not just me Cassuis and Leo too but they lost consciousness almost immediately. There is no doubt that the man I was facing was the biggest threat as they come because he is just different and extremely powerful.

"How dare you?" My voice sounded different to my own ears staring at the man in a robe.

"There is more from where that came from, little sister"

No!

Eyes grew wide and the made fist by my side loosen

'Little sister?'

I then focused on the features of him; shoulder length wavy hair, slender, about 6 feet of height, olive skin tone, edgy long face, sharp nose, tiny lips and a black dot just to the right side of his chin below his bottom lips. He wore a really outdated fashion; from way back over them a flowing cloak all the way to the floor. His eyes are what caught me the most, the look in them immediately reminded me of a man I saw yesterday for the first time; Luther. Instead this man I could see his eye color, yellowish green the depth of them owed to Luther's there is no doubt

'Is he really my brother?' One corner of his lips crept up as he realized my state

"Flynn?" I asked

"It's been a long time" he said taking a step forward and the wolf beside him marched forward with him. I looked at it, and in no one I recognize the empty eyes, it was like just body and no soul

"What is he doing with you?" I asked my heart skipping beats

"Serving his Master" that was the last thing he uttered before he retracted his hand and Kai lunged towards me in a rapid pace. I leaped in the air landing just in front of my brother

"We don't have to do this" I urged him as family; I was still in shock of the realization. But he retracted his hand intending to connect it with my face but I dodged to the side another blow came towards the other side and I dodged too but not until he used his raw power and blasted me with a power orb at my midsection. I was sent back; my booted feet dragged against the floor and filled the air with the sound of friction. I heaved before I looked into his eyes again

"Why are you doing this?" I asked still unsure of his intentions for coming after me, he retracted his hand again and Kai charged towards me in an impossible speed but with my swiftness the loose dirt followed my motion to his side as soon as I was out of Kai's prominent attack Flynn gave me another charged blow and I was sent flying through three grown oak trees, the moment it stopped and I was on my back it was like both Kai and his master teleported and towered me, the next thing I registered was Kai's sharp razor teeth penetrating through my upper arm; crushing my bones. I yelped and reached right under his chin and put pressure around his throat just enough to break him away from the grip in my arm. I pulled my arm out of his mouth and it instantly healed all the way from inside, with one great blow I heard Kai whine in pain as he laid probably with fractures in him. I was left to face off with my big brother.

Everyone around was passed out and I wasn't going to get help from the vampires because the sun will do the kill for him, I looked around for strategies one thing I suck at was combat for sure and he−my older brother of all times was clearly good at it. He has the grace and the arrogance written all over his movements and I know even with such a power I had my work cut out for me. Every blow I seemed to send his way looked like he had already anticipated it and would dodge it just in time, those ripples I don't know how to activate was not an option to use, it will not only harm him but all others there as well. The next blow landed in his grip and just as quickly he wrenched my arm around snapped it and kicked me behind the knees and pressed in three of his finger through my tissues and under the bones in my shoulder, I fell on my knees so he would be behind and my arm with him; I shivered in pain as I feel the tear repair and he would tear it right there again making me bleed both ways.

With a short pitched whistle from behind me I noticed kai coming at me first, opened his mouth and jammed it in the length of my shoulder and that surge immediately came up instinctively. This didn't have a crackle to it but the visible work of the ripple bursting from inside me and consuming us three, but just as it was going to its peak for maximum damage I left it come to a still before it crash back inside of me with a heaviness I had never felt; my body quakes uncontrollably just before I notice brightly white light passing through my abdomen from my right side; no pain but it dissolved every bit of strength inside of me. In my ears I heard his delirious voice

"Everyone has a weakness," before I dropped backwards in a really uncomfortable manner my hand underneath me and my legs too and I couldn't move; my mind scrambled and everything stopped officially. For a moment darkness consumed me, then I could feel myself move; strain in my right arm before my eyes narrowly opened and I saw a metal shackle around my wrist and a chain extended and he held to the other end; I could only see his cape and the brightness around me; the ever tall green trees before they close again.

It took long for me to regain consciousness or it seemed I felt. There was no pain, no strain but that weakness was submerging me in a river of darkness, active darkness. Hunter's death played in cruelty in my mind while hopelessly I was drawn away from him; just like all the others. Lightly I opened my eyes; the first thing I saw was his black fur and boned face. My head was rested against the inner side of my upper right arm and it was elevated to an angle; I felt the shackle around my wrist but anywhere else was free. My legs where put together and my other arm rested by my side lazily, as my gaze became clearer looking down I was in a bed with its mattress barely dead and the bed was made of iron, one great move from me would cause it to break. I took notice around me, the room was clear and there was a lot of fresh air around me; there was little to nothing to look at in the space except that it was very old and musky.

"Kai" I breathe, although I was drained somehow every vital in me was checked and ok all I had left was the stain of blood in my dress.

"Kai, where is Hunter?" I yelled indefinitely, the burn reenacted in my chest. I would stand to lose everything but not Hunter; he has to get what he deserves. Kai seemed to have no knowledge of my anymore like he wasn't conscious, he simply paced back and forth guarding me. It was useless trying to talk to him just then I heard someone else join us; Flynn.

"Why are you doing this?" I asked just before he came to view standing about a feet away from pacing kai.

"Why do you have me here? If you think you need to do this to talk to your sister−"

"Then it means I didn't just want to talk. Isn't it?" he said

"What do you want?"

"Just as I have you here, that is what I want"

"Alright, you have my attention. You have me, where is Hunter's body? I need to bring him back"

"Sure you can now with all that power in you," it was mocking and I knew I wasn't getting my request granted

"Hunter's my family," there was a brief silence, my voice grew hoarse and my emotions were strained more

"We can be a family again please don't do this"

seeing my older brother made me hell of emotional and I knew he was too; my existence took a lot from him and I would understand if he hates me for the rest of his life but I wanted him to give me a chance to enjoy having a sibling. But having him stand between bringing Hunter back will screw all the chances I was willing to give to him

"Oh but we've never been family," he ranted his voice rose to an impossible flare of madness

"But I am not that cruel," his tone died down to being delirious again

"Dear sister we have some holding up to do"
