Sophia’s POV
“Good try.” the vampire says in a cold, empty deep voice.
“I wasn’t trying to kill you, Drake. And don’t even try read our minds. Victoria put memory blocks on us all.” Isaac states calmly.
“And you cannot do anything to Sophia, Chase or those unborn children or as you will call them; the hybrids. We just wait for reinforcements and…”
“It doesn’t even matter, because behind us fighting are both our forces. Now Sophia, come with us.”
And with that our plan goes to ruin.
“You leave Sophia alone, you twisted, sadistic psychopath of a vampire” Chase shouts at Drake, guarding me and standing to the front.
“Sophia, you know what this means.” Chase says to me.
“I know.” I grimace, knowing what I have to do.
“I can’t… kill you. I can’t… use that stake… to kill you” I confess, as my voice starts cracking, during my bursts of tears.
“So you try invoke that protection clause, Chase. By letting your lover kill you. You cannot do that Sophia can you?”
“Don’t listen to this son of a bitch. See in to the future. And I’m sorry there is only one thing you can do Sophia.” Isaac gives a solemn but knowing smile, encouraging me to change the cause of history.
“Sophia.” Chase calls out to me “Please!” he adds in desperation. But can I really do this? There is only one way to find out and that was to see into the future…
And what I saw, should never happen. Therefore, my choice was made. So I had to do what I had to do, to make sure that the events followed the right course. Then I saw everything.
“Sophia, know that I will always love you. Never forget me.”
“How could I?” I tearfully laugh.
He gives me a smile as we embrace… and then he slips away.
"I love you.”
“I love you too.”
He says in his dying breath as I remember, the good and the bad times, til’ death did us part.

I, I can't get these memories out of my mind,
And some kind of madness has started to evolve.
I, I tried so hard to let you go,
But some kind of madness is swallowing me whole, yeah
I have finally seen the light,
And I have finally realized,
What you mean.
Ooh oh oh
And now, I need to know is this real love,
Or is it just madness keeping us afloat?
And when I look back at all the crazy fights we had,
Like some kind of madness
Was taking control
Yeah
And now I have finally seen the light,
And I have finally realized,
What you need.
And now I have finally seen the end
And I'm not expecting you to care
But I have finally seen the light
I have finally realized
I need to love
I need to love
Come to me,
Just in a dream
Come on and rescue me.
Yes I know, I can be wrong
Maybe I'm too headstrong
Our love is
Madness

And with that Chase’s ashes flew in the breeze, free and detached from reality.
“What are you going to do now Drake?” I taunt him, as I did what he did not expect. “Now leave me and my unborn twins, the fuck alone. I don’t actually know if they are twins, but you cannot touch them, him or her. You cannot touch us for 21 years. And by then we will be long gone.” I yell at him in anger
“You actually did it.” Drake says with a small hint of shock in his otherwise emotionless voice.
“You know what happens next.” Isaac looks at me.
“And you don’t!” I shout at Drake and his associates, walking down the street, before stepping to the side.
“I must find out.” I see Drake in the distance straining himself to read our minds.
“You will find out soon enough.” Isaac states, looking forward.

Haley’s POV
“Alex, I have to do something. I can’t let more people die.” I tell him, knowing that my best friend is out there a lone, Isaac is stuck and my friend is dead.
“Sam, told me to protect you and keep you in here. I must honour his wishes.” Alex says, looking away at me, because he knows I am right.
“What the hell is happening outside!” Alex shouts whilst looking outside through the window.
“Come on Haley, if there is anytime to use a power it is now.” I think hard to myself. Concentrate Haley. Concentrate…
“Haley!”
“Woah, I’m invisible!” I shout in excitement, going through then locking the door to keep Alex safe inside
“Of course I had to have the key and this door had to be made especially to act as a cage for vampires!”
“Sorry!” I say, before I run out.
* * *
Sophia’s POV
As my parents car speeds at over 100 mph.
As chaos descends.
The car swerves and smashes into the vampire to Drake’s right.
“You may have got one of my kindred, but did not get me Dane Bishop.” Drake arcs his head back grotesquely like the monster he is.
“…”
“Isaac. Uncle.”
I see Isaac lying on the floor, still.
And then another vampire stone dead.
“No you don’t!” I hear Haley chirp as the other vampire to Drake’s left is staked.
“This can’t be!” I see Drake sprint off towards the waterfall.
“Drake.”
“Dane, don’t be foolish. You are a foolish human.”
“But one tasty snack.”
“Get the fuck off me!”
“Humans, so predictable. So stupid.”
“Dane?”
“NO! DANE! PLEASE GOD NO!”
* * *
“Haley, will you protect my children?” I ask Haley.
“Of course, Sophia. You are my best friend.” she answers me in a quiet tone. “Why?” she adds in worry, as her nostrils flare.
“Because, Haley I’m bleeding and I’m in labour.” I mumble.
“You are going to be fine.” Haley tries to calm me, but instead sounds panicky herself.
“I think. No I know… I’m dying Haley.”
“Sophia!?”
“Alex, somebody. Please I need some help!”
And everything goes black.
* * *
Dane’s POV
I awaken. My body full of Drake’s venom. In pain. As I see everything.
“Chase. Isaac. Sophia.”
I sprint towards my daughter at inhuman speeds. One of the positive things about a vampire. That really does help when destiny is bitch, like it is today.
“I’m going to change this.” I think to myself.
“Dane!”
“I’m back baby. Now please, we need to save her. Let’s get her to the hospital! I’m not letting him win!” I say determined to at least right this wrong.
* * *
* * *
“Sophia, wake up. Please Sophia. Please wake up!”
* * *
“No, you just have to wake up! Too many people have died. Not you too!”
* * *
Sophia’s POV
And everything goes white.
“Please come with us.”
“Grandma. Granddad?” I ask confused
“Wait aren’t they dead.” Chase says in confusion.
“Then that means we’re dead.” We both say in unison.
“So no stupid vampires then.”
“Hey, I’m not stupid.”
And we embrace, knowing that at least we are together.
“No you are just amazing. The love of my life. For eternity I guess?”
“This is going to be one hell of an eternity. In a good way obviously.”
“I know, idiot.”
“Hey, I’m not an idiot.”
“I love it when you get annoyed.”
“I hate it. But at least your smiling. And I do love that.”
“Good.”
* * *
This dialogue could go on forever (no pun intended), because I love those two. I have a funny way of showing it, I know. Do not kill me because of it! Next generation will be happier I promise. So please don’t kill me!
See you soon (maybe)!
