The Cemetery
The first arrow that was shot was quickly caught by Liam who threw it back in the same direction it came. Which was from the blue eyed Elijah.
It grazed Elijah's shirt causing a rip on it, he barely escaped from the outcome. Out of anger, he shot another arrow at Liam while Tony lunged towards him with his daggers.
Liam moved away before the arrows could touch him and caught one of Tony's hand in the air, kicking away the dagger on his other hand.
He pushed Tony away with force causing Tony to crash into the dining area scattering a few of the seats and slightly nudging the table in the process.
Elijah quickly shot three arrows at Liam, who dodged one, caught one and got hurt by one which stuck to the right side of his chest. Using his non human speed, he sped up to Elijah knocking him off balance with a punch.
He kicked the man on the floor sending him flying to the staircase. He turned around to find Tony getting back up. Staring at the arrow inside his chest, he held it frowning as he separated it from his body. He cursed as he watched it draw out blood from him.
Tony picked up the knife in the fruit bowl on the dining table and started off attacking him with it. He tried stabbing Liam with it, Liam was already growing weak due to the injury on his right side chest, he could barely protect himself.
He turned the small sharp knife around breaking Tony's wrist bones as he pointed the dagger at Tony's chest. Tony groaned, feeling the forceful pain coming from his wrist. His Stern eyes never leaving Liam who had an annoying smile on his face.
Elijah got back up, seeing Tony at a disadvantage, he quickly searched for the nearest and closest object. Sighting one of his arrows on the ground, he picked it up and aimed at Liam's back stabbing the middle, causing Liam to stop his actions at the huge impact the arrow made.
The arrows were dipped in medicines that could actually hurt vampires. Tony dropped his broken wrist to his side as he took the knife into his other hand taking control of the situation, but before he could do anything, his entire body lit up on fire.
He screamed at the sudden penetration of heat. Elijah watched Tony burning at the side whilst screaming loudly, his eyes widen at the scene that he just stood there remaining frozen.
He felt someone behind him, he turned around only to find a slim black haired lady staring back at him with a sinister smile on her face.
She raised her slender fingers and before he could comprehend what was happening, with a snap of her fingers, his neck twisted to the side sending him straight to the ground lifeless.
Liam stayed on his knees as his shirt soaked with blood. The only time he lifted up his head was to stare at the woman in all black.
" Jonie", he called out before blacking out completely and falling on the well tiled floor in his dining room.
She walked over to him, squatting to his level, she reached out to touch his attractive brown hair but stopped midway resigning to helping him up instead.

Maddie smiled at a job well done. Staring at her reflection on the floor to ceiling mirror in her room, she looked absolutely marvelous.
She was dressed in a white short sleeved knee length gown which she paired with black knee length boots. Her hair was tied in a nice ponytail and the constant small smile on her face added a faint glow to her cheeks.
She looked utterly marvelous and that was what she wanted, to look best in the presence of her late parents. Other than that she was in a pretty good mood, well yesterday was the most strangest of all days in her life.
Maybe it was indeed a prank, maybe Vanessa played that prank at her and ran away from home afterwards, just whatever the theory was, she was glad to know that everything was fine.
Her life was back to normal, although there was never anything fun to do before, it was back to normal and that was all that mattered.
She walked over to her wardrobe opening one side of it, she searched for the bracelet, bringing it out. Was this some sort of parting gift from Vanessa because it really sucked. Anyways, when the bitch returns, Heavens forgive her that she cursed, she would give the bracelet back to its rightful owner.
She picked up her white sling bag as she headed out of her room. " Headed to the cemetery already?", Brenda asked her as soon as she saw Maddie walk into the kitchen all dressed up.
" Yeah", Maddie says nodding her head as she quickly picks up a sliced bread and started smearing butter all over it. She turns her head to the side only to find her little cousin eating breakfast in the slowest way ever.
" Leah?", she exclaims in shock. " What are you still doing home, it's almost eight thirty?", she asks walking over to the brooding youngster who ate a teeny bite of her buttered bread.
" Oh let her be Madisyn, I caught her pretending to have slept in, now she's eating slowly but I don't have to worry about that nuisance because I need all the rest I can get", Brenda screams all the way from the kitchen with her face glued to the fridge.
" Come on, I will give you a ride", Maddie offered softly, Leah hates school and they all know that, she must have been looking for an excuse to skip school, poor thing was caught by her strict mom.
Leah got up but not without scraping the chair on the floor then she walked out with her head down. Her black pixie cut hairstyle made her look like an angry cute boy, well she never did dress like a girl but a boy.
" Oh would you stop being such a big baby, you are acting as though I and Madisyn won't go back to school tomorrow, you know all too well it's because of the death of our history teacher that we are currently at home", Julianne spoke softly as she watched the youngster walk ever so slowly away.
Leah raised her head wanting to reply but held it in as she made it to the door, got out of the house and shut it behind her with force.
" I should probably go before she does something dumb to my car", Maddie exclaimed after the childish drama. Stuffing a piece of bread in her mouth, she walked out.
" Drive safe", Brenda wished as she watched Maddie walk out of the house shutting the door behind her softly.
She padded her bare feets on the floor heading to where her niece Julianne was lying comfortably on the green couch.
Julianne turned her head away from her phone screen as she stared at the eyes of her inquisitive dark skinned aunt.
" Is there a problem?", she asked sitting up throwing back the inquisitive gaze. " No, no problem", Brenda said calming down and arranging her stance.
" Ok I'm concerned", she said before Julianne would go back to lying down. " Stop shortening your sentences, what are you trying to say Brenda?", Julianne asked already getting irritated at being disturbed.
" Why didn't you follow Maddie to see your late parents?", Brenda asked and the blonde girl frowned just as the words left the woman's mouth.
She got up from the couch and walked past Brenda then stopped at the stair case. " I would rather go on my own Brenda, Madisyn and I are not related in the slightest, I am the only child of my parents and I would love if it stayed that way, thanks for ruining the atmosphere", she said whispering the last part before disappearing upstairs.
Brenda set her lip in a thin line. God damn it brother in law, Your daughter is so like you, sassy and stupid, she thought inwardly.
