Disclaimer: The following is a fan based work of fiction whose characters I do not own, with the exception of my OC's. I also want to apologize for the delay in updates and that this chapter is short. School has been extremely hectic, but I will attempt to get back on the ball and update chapter when I can. By the way, this chapter is going to be a tad more gory than the previous one. If that's not your thing, then press the back button on your computer, and find something else to read. If you do like what you're reading, be sure to leave a vote and a comment.

In the previous chapter: The two of them looked down at their prey with black and grey eyes, and glasgow lines on their mouths. Andy was now in a state of panic that words alone couldn't describe or shape. The coal, black darkness in their eyes only added onto to the sadistic and murderous intent that shined behind them

Now: Adam made the first move and brought the hammer down again, but Andy managed to grab ahold of it. The two of them now had a tug of war for the hammer, until Adam sucker punched the vampire in the face. He stumbled backwards against the washing machine and just barely managed to dodge the next strike that Adam tried to bring down on him. Unfortunately, Andy wasn't quick enough to side step the slash that Ileana delivered to his chest, with a shard of glass that she had hidden away. The blood flowed out of the wound like a river, but wasn't enough to put Andy down. Because one of his hands was now clutching the fresh wound, he now had to rely on the other one to defend himself. But that did nothing to stop the siblings next barrage of attacks. Specifically, Adam sucker punching him in the face again, and then kicking his feet out from under him. Andy now fell on his front, hitting his chin and biting his lip on impact. He ignored the pain and tried to push himself with his free hand, but Adam was quick to stomp on it; promptly breaking all 27 bones in it.

Andy shouted at the top of his lungs, but it was abruptly cut off by the sudden force of Adam's other foot going into his mouth. The vampire's eyes widened in shock and pain as he tried not to taste the filth of the shoe blocking up his airway, and practically suffocating him. When he tried to scream, it came out as nothing but a strangled muffle. Even biting the young ghoul was out of the question. Andy now struggled and fought with everything that he had as he took notice of Ileana coming forward, and bending down until she was on her knees and near his level. She reached underneath him and unveiled the other hand that was clutching his slash wound. The vampire looked up at her with sheer terror in his eyes, as Ileana began to lick his blood from his fingers in a nearly sensual gesture. In any other circumstances, he would have found this attractive, but now he was just plain terrified.

Andy didn't have a moment to react before his middle finger was swiftly broken and placed back in Ileana's mouth where she proceeded to try and bite it off near the base. The muffled screams that he let out, were loud enough to alert the people outside, burning his lungs, and only getting louder as Ileana struggled to bite her way through the bone; blood spurting and dripping onto the floor as sinew and muscle began to pull apart with her biting. Slowly, but surely the bone started to crack and tear under the force of her jaw. The finger finally came lose with a sickening popping sound that rang out in the air and almost made Andy pass out from the pain. His whole body began to shiver and shake, causing more blood to spill and stain the floor beneath the three of them. While his sister contently chewed on his finger, Adam relished the control that he now had over the vampire.

"You're in pain right? I can see that you are. But not as much as the pain that you made her feel, you fucker!" he shouted at the top of his lungs, as his other foot crushed the vampire's other hand, completely mangling it. By now, both of Andy's hands were burning with pain, the wound on his side was still bleeding out, and his mouth was starting to salivate uncomfortably. Even breathing through his nose was starting to become uncomfortable. He closed his eyes thinking that it would help him block out the pain, and ease him into a state of unconsciousness even by a little bit. Even the sound of Ileana spitting out the leftover bone, was starting to inducing him to sob. But Andy knew that it was just wishful thinking, as he felt Ileana grab his other finger and repeat the process of biting it off again. This time, it was his ring finger. Once again, she was met with some resistance when it came to his bone again, and held his mangled hand out for Adam to take.

"Here. Do you want to take a crack at it?" She asked in a tone of voice that was too casual for what they were doing. Adam leaned down, took the hand without a second thought, and bit into the bone with a force and intensity, that sparked another painful fire in Andy's hand. The young ghoul took less time than his sister and quickly severed Andy's ring finger from his hand, and created another spray of blood. It was pointless to scream at this point, so Andy just groaned and moaned to himself, hoping beyond hope that he sink into a black sea of unconsciousness where no pain could touch him. Was it even worth it anymore? The chase, the hacking her bank details, the haunted house attraction, being harassed by a psychotic whore of a kitsune. If this was his reward for all of it, then bittersweet wasn't enough to describe how shitty it was. Even sibling's words sunk the vampire deeper into despair.

"Not bad, reminds me of that dipshit who came by my place and started snooping around". said Adam.

"The one who stabbed you last night? Why didn't you just kill him?" asked Ileana.

"Didn't think that far ahead. As soon as we're done here, we can look for him if you want". Your Ex here can be lunch, and that guy can be dinner. It's more than he deserves for what he did last night. Unfortunately, we can't take him back to the house for the usual routine, but it's better than nothing". responded Adam, with malice in his voice.

"Works for me". replied Ileana. Just as Adam handed Andy's mangled hand back to his sister, the sound of a key being inserted into the front door's lock alerted the siblings. They immediately went silent and squeezed themselves further into the utility closet with Andy. When it sounded like the front door was finally opened, a new pair of footsteps echoed throughout the living space. Accompanied by a voice that Ileana knew all too well.

"Andy?! Are you okay? Where are you, dude?" Ashley shouted as he moved all around, trying to find his friend. When he got no response, he called out to Andy again.

"Dude, Chris is freaking out! He said that Adam got the jump on him, and that he may be headed your way! He said he called you, but got dead air. I came as soon as I heard". he said. As the siblings listened to him move around the house, his footsteps now indicated that he was in the bedroom.

"Dude, you know that Ileana is gone, right?" She's not here! I thought you brought her here last night?! Dude, answer me!" he shouted frantically. Adam and Ileana didn't have to look at Andy to know that he was struggling to get out from under the two of them to alert his friend as to what was going on. It was a good thing that Ileana turned off Andy's phone once she hung up on Chris, lest Ashley find out where they were. But Ileana knew that it couldn't stay that way and looked over at Adam. She motioned her head towards the door to say that she would make herself known to Ashley. To which Adam frantically shook his head to indicate that they shouldn't split up with two vampires in the same place. It was now that Ileana decided to speak.

"I'll be okay. Besides, as far as he's concerned, I'm still here and Andy went out to run some errands, which is what I'm going to tell him. Right now". she whispered. While she attempted to clean herself of Andy's blood, she kept a ear out, listening to Ashley make his way past the utility closet and back out to the kitchen. Using this as her opportunity to escape, she quietly slipped out of the closet and back into the bedroom. Adam closed the door in behind her and kept tight hold of the vampire beneath him. Ileana now followed closely in behind Ashley, giving off little to no sound. It was only when Ashley was done rummaging around in the fridge did he notice the female ghoul behind him.
