Lucian smirked, but there was no pretense of pleasantness in any ounce of his posture now. His expression and voice were icy cold as he said calmly, "They're under the false impression that they're getting any farther in here than they stand without being ripped to pieces. Simple misunderstanding." He inclined his head and smiled. It wasn't a nice smile. "I'm sure it will be easily corrected."

I shivered a little inside. I was getting a little creeped out by the way Lucian was talking. I had no idea what to do. I just basically stood there, waiting for the right moment to make a move.
{Vivian's POV} I stood there narrowing my eyes at Crystal. She had Rose held close to her. I smiled evilly at the little girl. I looked at Lucian and smiled and said, "Oh really." He scared me a little inside, but I would never show it. If Crystal was the only one we were dealing with this would be a whole lot easier.

He smiled, his eyes dancing almost gleefully. He seemed to thrive on confrontations like this. "Oh yes, witch girl. Really." Jezebel stepped forward, her hazel eyes reflecting the moonlight with an eerie light. She had enjoyed playing him before, but the time for play was over, and there wasn't a single person standing there who didn't know it. "You're going to hold off three of us on your own, then?" "I've held off much worse than two witch girls and a vampire, trust me." His eyes narrowed. "Because I'm... slightly... reformed, I will give you once chance to run." He grinned. "And quickly, because wolves like chasing."

I stood there knowing that, no matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't avoid being involved in this. I would stand by Rose to protect her until I had to help. I mean it had to be absolutely necessary, or at least until one of the girls got so much on my nerves that I was able to actually rip there head off. "I would take this opportunity if I was you." I said looking directly at Vivian.

Lacey just gave that creepy insane smile and padded farther into the house. Her eyes landed on Rose, and the girl shrank back, her blue eyes wide. Lucian appeared soundlessly behind her and tilted his lips up in the beginnings of a smirk - close to his normal expression, if not for the dangerous, slightly manic look in his eyes. He flicked his eyes skyward. "Dolce madre di misericordia..." he muttered, and suddenly grinned - a dark, disturbing expression that lent no warmth to his eyes. "Some of these leeches just never learn. Rose, hold this, will ya?" He gently tossed her his amulet; she caught it with an instinctively deft move and looked up, the fear in her wide eyes replaced, at least for a moment, with inquisitiveness. "Um... what is it?" "It's the handy little trinket that keeps me from ripping people - assuming you count filthy bloodsuckers as people - to bloodly shreds." He smirked darkly, his eyes glittering with a cold light. "At the moment," he added, "Its services are not required. Oh, and Crystal? Unless you get random fighting skills from nowhere, you may want to call in the cavalry, also known as my little brother and his... friends."

I felt better knowing I could also rely on Shadow, Kierlan, and some other vampires to deal with this situation as well. This is not just fight anymore. I had a feeling it would soon be a war. I quickly grabbed my cell off the counter and ran back next to Rose. I opened the phone and dialed Shadow's number. I didn't even wait for him to say hi. I heard the phone click and said, "You need to get over to my house right now, and bring your vampire friends." I was still a little shaky from the situation, so my voice shook as well as I said this.

"Crystal?" His voice sounded surprised. "What - never mind. I'll get there as fast as I can." Lucian chose that precise moment to lunge for Lacey, shifting into over a hundred pounds of snarling, snapping canine fury in mid-leap. He slammed her to the ground without effort, but just as easily she twisted to the side with vampire speed and slipped out of his grasp. Lucian snarled and stalked towards her slowly. Nothing about him was cold or composed now - he was furious, and a furious werewolf in their true form was bad news.

"Okay." I said to Shadow as I hung up the phone. I watched the scene now from the door. This was gonna get really bad, really fast. I so hoped the vampires would get here fast.
{Vivian} I stood back watching Lucian fight with Lacey. I smiled a little at how easily she could get out of his hold. I wondered how long it would take before Crystal got involved. I put my powers to use, glad there were some big rocks out here. I picked up a huge one and threw it at him.

Lucian ducked effortlessly and turned to look at her, and although he was technically capable of human speech, his expression said clearly enough, Seriously? He shifted to human form for a moment, narrowing his eyes and glancing around as he tried to figure out what to do - and Shadow's urgent knock came on the door. "Are you serious, little brother?" he snapped. "We're in the middle of a fight for our lives, and you knock?" Whatever plan was forming in his head seemed to snap together, because he chose that moment to spring for Vivian, bowling her to the ground and pinning her there, his sharp teeth inches from her throat. Shadow padded in slowly, eyes flickering as he assessed the situation. Kierlan was close behind - his expression was mostly unreadable, but there was definitely a cold fury there.

{Vivian} I struggled to get the wolf off of me as he had me held there, about to kill me. I had to use a lot more force with him, but eventually I was able to use my strength and power to push him off, sending him back to where he was before he charged. I stood myself back up gracefully. I then noticed the two vampires. "And who are you?" I asked confused by why Lucian would send for vampires. They did seem familiar, but I had really no clue who they were. If I'm remembering correctly they were part of their group.
{Crystal} I walked back to the window noting that Shadow was the one who knocked from what Lucian had said. I now saw Kierlan and Shadow. I smiled seeing them here. I saw Lucian attack Vivian. He was about to kill her. I turned away quickly, but looked back to find that she had pushed him off. She was such a tiny girl. It was hard to believe that with her amount of muscle she was able to get him off, but she was a witch so of course she would use her powers to help. I looked down at Rose and said, "You know at some point I'm going to get involved with this, and I'm going to take her down." I pointed at Vivian. Vivian would never know that I said that. Lucian might, but he has his concentration on the fight. He probably would just ignore it.

Shadow was frozen solid, staring straight across at Lacey, who looked as cool and collected as she always did for having almost been killed by her werewolf ex-boyfriend. She waved cheerfully and grinned, flashing her fangs at him. He wasn't surprised to see her nails were painted red. "Hi, Shadow!" she said brightly. "Lacey," he half-choked, half-snarled. Lucian stopped fighting for a moment and gave him a look that said as clearly as his voice: We all know what her name is. Kill her, idiot! Shadow hesitated for a split second, and Lacey seized the opportunity to lunge forward. Lucian rolled his eyes skyward and leaped forward, shifting into human form as he did and wrapping a vice grip around her neck. "Didn't I warn you what would happen if you came near my little brother again?" he hissed in her ear, and then shoved her forward into Shadow. He watched the pretty much even fight for a moment, then grinned wildly and lunged for Jezebel instead.

{Vivian} I saw how quickly he went for Jezebel. I picked a huge boulder flinging it at him as he had his focus on her. He wasn't going to mess with my friend. I caught Crystal out of the corner of my eye. She was watching the scene, protecting the little human girl. She had her eye on the other vampire. I smirked knowing I would go after him next. She wasn't going to stay in there for long. I was going to make sure of that.
{Charm} I was walking through the woods trying to find Vivian. I hated to walk alone, but I had to be sure she wasn't hurt or in trouble. I heard her voice close by. I stayed in the shadows. I watched carefully as the people fought. I tried to keep from the werewolf picking up my scent. He might think of me as another animal, but if he tried to mess with me he would be killed. Vivian seemed to have everything under control. She used her powers to launch a rock at a vampire. I would just stay here to keep an eye on her, and protect her if she needs any help.

Lucian evaded it with the natural grace of the wolf and raised his eyebrows at her. "Don't you know any other spells?" he yelled tauntingly, then turned and lunged for Jezebel, not bothering to shift into wolf form, just slamming her against the wall and holding her throat. For a moment, her lips twisted in the usual cruel smile - then it suddenly vanished, giving away to a look of total confusion. "Lucian? What the hell are you - oh." She sighed. "My sister." He released her, his bright blue eyes reflecting an eerie luminescence. "Angel?" She nodded mutely and pushed off the wall, staring at the fight scene with growing horror. "She's never come out for that long. She must be gaining power - crap." Lucian's eyes narrowed. "And I know this isn't a trick because...?" Angel felt the tingle of fire in her fingers; she smirked at him and then turned to Lacey, releasing a blast of fire that split her and Shadow apart without harming him. "Someone told me vampires hate fire," she said with a shrug, and turned back to him. "Answer enough?" He shrugged nonchalantly. "Good enough for me," he muttered, and changed direction, heading towards Lacey, who had quickly managed to stifle the fire herself.

{Vivian} I rolled my eyes at Lucian. Of course I knew other spells. In fact I was going to use a spell on the other vampire right now. I smiled evilly at him while he was still looking away. I chanted, silently, a spell that would cause him to fall out of love with Crystal. She seemed to figure out what I was doing. She walked to the door and opened it as I finished the chant. Right as I sent it off she screamed, "Kierlan!"

Kierlan jumped a little, then gave Vivian a small smirk. "Yeah, as if," he muttered, rolling his eyes at her, and then looked around at the ongoing battle, and Angel who was now back to herself. He smirked again. "You're one ally down. It sure looks to me like you're way outnumbered."
