THE NEXT MORNING ~~ ETERNAL SHADOWS ~~ CASTLE
Ava was putting on a black cropped hoodie and a black fitted jean with a pair of boots. Her hair fell freely on her back as she stared at herself in the mirror.
"Good to go!" She muttered with a smile.
She turned to look at Lucian who stared at her with an unreadable expression.
"I will be okay!" She said.
"Not like I care about that. What I care about now is the fact that you know where we're staying and you can send your people over here!" He said and she bit her lips...
"Just trust me!" She said.
He stood speeding to stand in front of her.
"The moment I see a werewolf in this clan, I will kill you myself Ava!" He said his eyes glowing red.
She stepped back.
"I won't bring any werewolf here! I promise" She muttered..
"I'll be off!" She said and walked out of the room.
She walked downstairs and sighed.
Gorya suddenly sped to her and gave her a dagger.
"You'll need this!" She said and sped off.
Ava furrowed her brows before staring intently at the dagger. It was made of a werewolf tooth and it had silver on it. She pocketed it before leaving the house.
The guards opened the gate for her and she ran away speedily.
Lucian stared at her through the terrace.
"You're sure this is a good idea?" Zuko, his guard asked him.
"No!" Lucian said without looking at him.
"So why did you let her go?" He asked.
"She wants to know how cruel her clan is, I shouldn't deprive her from that!" Lucian said.
"What if she betrays us?" Zuko asked.
And he turned the side view of his face to him.
"I will end her myself!" He said and faced front.
"She's thé fàted lunã master, it won't be easy!"
"I've killed her before, I can do it again!" Lucian said and zuko sighed.
He sped away immediately.
REDWOOD FOREST ~~ CALIFORNIA
Ava arrived in front of the forest and she smiled a little.
Somehow, she missed this place. She missed the people and her parents.
She sighed before walking to the gate.
The guards at the gate gave her a deadly glare.
"Let me in!" She said and they did.
She was a bit shocked at first but she smiled before walking in.
She looked around and some people who were outside gave her glares.
"The hell with the glares!" She said and one spoke.
"You have no right to tell us that. You broke a rule and you shouldn't even be here. It's not fair cos if anyone is to get banned in this clan, they won't be let back in buh you, you're allowed to come in, this is not fair!!!!" The lady yelled and the people around agreed.
"You're acting as if you've never done anything wrong in your life. It's not my fault if they don't get back in. TBH, I don't even want to be here buh I just came to clarify something. Excuse me!" Ava said and smiled before leaving.
The girl got angry and turned into a wolf running towards her. She was about to slash Ava with her claw but Ava did a back flip landing behind her.
The wolf turned and roared at her.
She ran towards her and Ava smiled before using the back of her palm to hit the wolf's face and it flew distance away from her earning gasps from the people.
The girl turned back into normal loosing consciousness. Some people rushed to cover her up before taking her away.
She smiled before walking into her father's mansion. She opened the door and met her parents sitting in the dining room having breakfast.
The moment they sighted her, Luciana flew from her chair running to give Ava a very tight hug.
"Sweetie!!!" She called breaking the hug.
"I missed you so much!" She said and Ava smiled.
"I missed you too!" Ava said and Lucas walked up to them.
She looked at him before hugging him. He smiled reciprocating the hug.
"My Lunã!!" He said and broke the hug.
"I'm sorry for banishing you.!" He said.
"It's okay! I deserved it!" Ava said.
"Come back to the clan sweetie!" Luciana said and she smiled.
"I'm sorry buh I can't!" Ava said.
"Why?!" Lucas asked.
"I'm married already!" Ava said showing them her ring.
Lucas eyes widened remembering his dream.
"Who's your husband?"
"Actually, it's a vampire! The Lord of Garberville!" Ava said and Lucas moved back.
"You will divorce him and come back to the clan Ava.!" Lucas said and Ava frowned...
"I can't do that. Why should I?"
"It's for your own good dear. You're living with a ticking time bomb." He said and she furrowed her brows.
"Ion understand!"
"What if one day he suddenly wants to end you, what will you do?" He asked.
"I'll fight back!"
"You think you'd win? You've not even had the desired training, you've not mastered your abilities, you think a mere werewolf like you who's just learning some things can defeat someone like him?!!!" He snapped and she frowned..
"This is the reason ion want to even come back here.. You use every opportunity you get to call me weak!!!" She yelled.
"Don't you dare yell at me!" He warned and she scoffed.
"Sweetie, just calm down!" Luciana said and Ava inhaled and exhaled.
"Why did you guys attack the vampire clan?" Ava asked and they froze before looking at each other.
"Where did you get that information from?" Luciana asked.
"My husband and his people!"
"Ava!" Lucas called with a frown and she smiled.
"Isn't he my husband?!" She asked..
"He will kill you Ava, why can't you just listen?!!" Lucas said...
"I can defend myself dad. I know you're worried about me but please, I know what am doing. I will be fine!" She said and then she smirked..
"Trying to change the subject yeah? Why did you guys attack the vampire clan?!!" She asked.
"We didn't! Some traitors of a werewolf did!" Lucas said.
"Come have a seat let us talk!" Luciana said.
"No mum! I want you to tell me here, I'll be leaving soon so just be fast!" She said and Luciana sighed.
"Some werewolves in the clan never liked when your father ruled the clan. They hated the vampires for no absolute reason. One could say they were threatened by them. So then a thought occured to one of them to end the vampire race and so they began growing getting werewolves who are willing to work with them and then they set off into the vampire's past hideout and attacked all the vampires there. They killed allot of people and some were able to escape. When we found out what they did, we killed them!" Luciana said and Ava stared at them for a while.
"You're lying!" Ava said and stepped back.
Luciana's eyes widened.
"How could you say that?!!!" She half yelled.
"You're lying mum. You and father were the ones threatened by Lucian's parents and so you went after them. You guys killed his brother!!!!!!" Ava yelled stepping backwards.
Lucas inhaled.
"That's not true Ava!"
"You killed innocent families!!" Ava said still stepping back.
"They're not innocent, they've ended the lives of many humans!!" Lucas snapped.
"And are you trying to say you guys never did that?!" Ava asked a tear drop rolling down her eye lid.
Lucas just stared at her with no reply.
"Mum! Why?!" Ava asked another tear rolling down her eye lid.
Luciana looked up at her.
"They were a threat and they still are! You're going to tell us where they are so we'd prepare for ambush!" Luciana said and Ava chuckled.
"They never even attacked you guys!" She muttered and then she smiled.
"If you guys try to attack the vampire's clan again, you'll have me as your enemy!" Ava said with a deep frown on her face.
Luciana frowned before walking away.
Lucas smirked and left.
Ava opened the door and ran into the city. Tears filled her eyes as she kept running.
She saw some werewolves heading towards her and she blinked back her tears before stopping. She wiped her tears and gave them a glare.
"Get the hell outta my way!" She said.
"The Lord asked to kill you if you return and that's what we're going to do!" One of them said and they launched at her.
She elbowed one on the jaw and gave one a kick.
She brought out the dagger and smirked her eyes glowing golden. She stood and they came for her. She slashed anyone that came closer to her and they all fell to the ground groaning in pain.
~~
"How the hell did she find out?!!" Lucas yelled at Luciana.
"Don't you dare yell at me. I don't know how she found out I was lying buh then she's thé fàted lunã, anything is possible!" She replied.
A guard rushed to them and they faced him.
"Your daughter is being attacked by the werewolves!" He said.
"I thought I warned those people!!!!" Lucas growled and left the house going to the location where Ava was.
He met her fist fighting with one of the werewolves. The rest were injured on the ground and surprisingly they weren't healing.
Ava punched the guy and used the dagger on him. He groaned falling to the ground bleeding from the injury.
Ava turned to her father her eyes golden.
"I told them not to attack you when you come!" He said.
"I know!" She replied and his eyes went to the dagger.
His eyes widened a bit.
"Who gave you that?!" He asked walking to her.
She looked at the dagger and then at him.
"You don't need to know!" She replied.
"Sweetie, just tell us where the vampires are. They are a threat Ava!" Luciana said and Ava looked at her.
"Nothing in this world would make me tell you mum! Goodbye!" She said and turned to go buh then she stopped.
"If I find out you guys send someone to follow me, I will kill the person and come for you both!" She said and her eyes glowed before she sped away.
The parents looked at each other with wide eyes.
"She's getting her powers back!" Lucas muttered.
"Your dream honey!" Luciana said and Lucas sighed.
GARBERVILLE ~~
Ava got to the entrance of the city and she began walking in.
She met Rina in her way and she scoffed.
"Where did you go?" She asked and Ava ignored walking past her.
Rina pulled her back by the hair.
"Let me go!" Ava snapped and pushed her off.
"What's your problem?" Ava asked angrily and then she remembered what her parents did.
She sighed.
"I'm sorry for what happened to your family!" She said and Rina chuckled.
"Sorry can't bring them back!" Rina said.
"I know but I'm sorry on their behalf!" She said and Rina scoffed.
"That's still not going to bring them back or calm the rage in my heart!"
"Then what should I do?" Ava asked.
"Divorce Lucian and allow me kill you!" She said and Ava just stared at her with a bored look.
"You ain't going to....." Before she could finish, Ava bursted into a loud laughter.
"What's so funny?" Rina asked with a deep frown.
"I thought you were joking!" Ava said and cleared her throat.
"I won't do that! I apologize for their deaths! My deepest condolences!" Ava said and walked past her.
She was about to pull her hair again when Ava spoke.
"Don't you dare!!!" Her voice sounded cold sending a shiver down Rina's spine.
