Hours seemed to be more like minutes now as the day flew by and turned into night yet again. Another celebration, crowds and groups of every kind gathered laughing rejoicing, plotting for the battle. Dominick's voice sprawled out above everyones voices until it was quiet.
"Yes we have trained well and practiced what we needed to but have yet to decide a way to begin the attack, and where we are going to come in and start from. The wedding ceremonies always take place in the elders bush. I believe we should wait until the ceremony has ended to begin surrounding the bush. They will be in process of celebration and not focused or concerned about the outside surroundings. I think that is when we should make our move. Any objections?" No one disagreed with Dominick, why would they he knew what he was talking about it was after all his haven. "Ok, so we will have groupings, wolves, vampires, witches, goblins. We will make our attack with each of our own kind and then break up once inside the ceremony. The elders cannot be killed they are far too quick, we will have to take down Ivy and whom ever else comes at us. When they are down we can convince the elders of our ways. They are all about strength, power and wisdom. And if we take down those who they think carry that, they will realize we are better choices. As long as this can be done we should be in the clear. If not we may have a larger battle on our hands. Is everyone prepared for this." Roars flew up around everyone. Cheering and screaming, this was really it our last evening before hell!
People were clearing back up into their little groups again to continue there celebrations. Except for Dean he just sat by that tree staring. I got caught in his stare as we locked eyes and stayed glaring at eachother for far too long. Dominick stepped in between our stares and embraced me with a tight breath killing hold. "Pay no mind to him Christina, he is just afraid, he shows too much fear. Which makes him weak, do not worry of what he thinks." I still couldn't help trying to look around Dominick back into Dean's deep stare.
The hours passed by quickly as everyone continued their training, soon enough it was night again. And we were beginning our journey to the elders bush. You could hear gathering creatures making there way to the area. We just sounded the same except from a distance to them, there for we had nothing to worry about they would expect nothing.
Dominick and I climbed a tree high up to get a view into the wedding, this way we could signal the attack. "She is wedding Alexander, I cannot kill him Christina, he was like a brother to me." "Then don't kill him stun him so he cannot fight back. But do not back out now Dominick we have come to far. Do not talk of others weaknesses and then show your own." Dominick gave me a very nasty snub as we both looked back on to the wedding. Vows were in the midst of being exchanged. We could hear clearly from where we were in the tree, on top of our extra abilities.
-Do you Ivy take Alexander to be your soul partner for the rest of eternity?
I Do.
-And do you Alexander take Ivy to be your soul partner for the rest of eternity?
I Do.
-Please read your vows.
-Ivy I wish you to be by my side, day and night, for the rest of eternity, I wish you to be my love, my match, my soul mate until it is our time to rest.
- Alexander I wish to share my strength, wisdom and power with you and you alone, for the rest of eternity. But I wish to do so on our own path, far away, away from this haven. I wish to give up my rights as queen to someone else and live out the rest of my eternity with you on our own path. I tire of being in the position I hold. Be with me on our own path Alexander.
Gasps rang out above everyone, even the elders were in shock, but however Alexander seemed to be so calm.
-Alexander do you accept Ivy's vow?
I Do.
-Please fill each others blood viles, exchange your drink and kiss.
Watching them both drink their exchanged blood kind of made me sick to watch.
-I now pronounce you soul mates for eternity. Please kiss and seal your love.
Alexander pulled Ivy in to kiss her and then her legs just gave out and she collapsed in his arms.
-Ivy, Ivy what's wrong, Ivy please open your eyes look at me.
There was no response Ivy's spirit had moved on. "Dominick what happened what's going on?"
"I don't know, I don't understand. But well they are focused this is our best time to attack." Dominick signaled the groups for the attack. Screams, growls and cries blended together as everyone began to collide. Some began to fight back, some chose to run and hide. The elders disappeared and Alexander just stood and watched.
The battle was over quite quick our army over powered theirs like no other. Alexander walked through the piled bodies straight up to Dominick. "What are you doing brother, we thought you were dead." "Obviously their was no concern from you brother you did not bother so help me." Dominick snapped his teeth at Alexander.
"Dominick you chose that abomination over your own family, why would I come to your rescue when you were to abandon us so quickly." "Christina is not an abomination and she is my soul and my eternity now. Do not speak of her so poorly. This haven is still my family and I intend on taking it over and doing what is right and what is good for it. Ivy is obviously no longer an issue. Do you choose to fight me Alexander or do you choose to stand aside."
"Be reasonable Dominick I do not wish to fight you, but I will not let you take my crown. You may have been re born to this privledge but I was crowned. It is mine now, if you wish to work along side me for this haven it would be my greatest pleasure to have you, but you must get rid of the abomination."
Before Alexander could continue Dominick had pounced onto him and began to attack. They rolled around quite a bit on the ground before any out come had been decided. That's when I watched the most horrid thing I had ever seen Dominick do. Dominick bit into Alexander's throat and ripped half of it out with his mouth. I couldn't believe what I had just witnessed him do, I now knew that this truly wasn't my Dominick any more. This was that touch of Lucinda I had given to him.
Dominick stood up and watched as Alexander's body erupted into blood and dust. He picked up the crown, blew it off and placed it on his head. "My queen" he whispered to me as he took my hand and guided me over to Ivy's body and ripped the crown off of hers and placed it on my head.
The elders re appeared just then. "Dominick we thought you to be dead. Why have you done this, we cannot decide what to do with you until we have heard your reasoning's. You were one of our greatest Dominick, we had such hopes for you. Why have you done this?"
"Great ones, I did this for you, Ivy planned on abandoning you, she had me banished and Alexander had not enough strength to rule your haven. Bless Christina and I with this power and I give you my soul and her soul into your hands. We can do for you what no one else can. We are right for this."
