Part 24
Though fear and panic were running through my body I knew I had to keep my head. Looking to the statues beside be I see a pair of sais being held by some weird creature, deciding I needed them more then he did right now I took them from him. Twirling the weapons I decided to go from room to room no matter what sights lay before me I would find Aro and Petra not to mention kill Alexander the moment I saw him.
Coming to the door before me I could hear whimpers and a deep make voice telling whoever the cause was to keep silent or he would slit her throat gave my my answer as I kicked the door open. Obviously I was not in my Roman clothing but black pants, a loose black shirt and black boots. Needless to say whoever was in there could easily tell I was an outsider. Not sure what to expect it did shock me to see my father in law holding a sword to his daughters throat while another young barely clothed woman held a spear to Aro's throat.
"Get out, of my house." I tell them not missing a beat.
"Your house? Ha! This is the house of my son, you were just some lucky whore who managed to get his attention." Thanos laughs making Petra try and hold back even more tears.
"Apparently there is more then one in the family." I remark looking to the half naked woman holding Aro hostage. "I will give you one last chance, get out of my house or die."
"Well now what makes you think you can go around barking orders." I hear the snake himself as he walks into the room, Alexander winks at me and it takes all my will power not to throw one of my weapons into his throat. "I must say Diana, you look good in black. A shame you weren't here when we fist arrived, could have saved so many peasant girls."
"Their blood is on your hands not mine, you shall have to pay in the next life." I reply as Alexander walks right up to me.
"Here your own father in law holds your husband and sister in law hostage just as I paid him to do, everyone has a price you know." Alexander says getting right in my face as he caresses a piece of my hair.
This was my moment my head thought and obviously my body agreed for I quickly used my sai to scratch his face and kick him down to the ground. This however give my father in laws whore to try and attack me. She comes at me with a loud amazon yell as she tries to hit me with the spear but once again I am faster I manage to cut through the spear and start to fight her.
"You are a killer for hire?!" Aro demands of his father as he now holds a dagge to his throat forcing him to release Petra.
Petra looked at me completely scared and not knowing what to do as I continue to fight the unknown woman who clearly hated me for some unknown reason.
"RUN! GET OUT OF HERE!" I yell at Petra as loud as I can.
Petra seems to get the message and bolts out of the room, just as I knock the woman down Alexander smiles and readies his sword. Oh for the love of all that's holy why can't these people just stay down.
"I do what I must to survive, you however were granted everything when your mother died and I was left nothing." Thanos replies to Aro's question.
Alexander comes to charge at me only to get tackled by Ares who literally comes out of nowhere. Ares stands back up and looks at me.
"Did I miss the party?" Ares asks with a laugh as Alexander gets up and tries to fight him.
Just as I was about to go to Aro crazy ladies grabs me by my neck and holds me against a pillar. I tried my best to kick her or somehow get out of her hold but nothing I did would make this woman budge at all.
"Chose son, your father or your wife." Thanos laughed as Aro looked my way.
It was clear Ares was too pre occupied to help me at this moment and I had a feeling I knew what Aro would chose, perhaps that was what scared me. He would risk releasing his father to perhaps kill him in a risk to try and come save me. He did exactly what I feared. Aro pushed Thanos to the ground as hard as he could and ran over to help me. Grabbing the woman he practically threw her away from me just as i feared I was about to black out. Thanos grabbed the woman and fled as I fell into Aros arms and he slowly lowered me to the ground.
"Your alive, thank the gods." Aro said holding me close as I took in a deep breath of air.
Smiling I look up at Aro. "It'll take more then that to kill me." I tell him as he leans over and kisses me.
"ABIGAIL!" I hear Ares call out at the top of his lungs and I barely have enough time to look up and see what is about to happen.
Ares was on the ground trying to reach for someone, Alexander who was standing talls with a bow and arrow in hand. He had released the arrow just as Aro and I kissed. It was heading straight for me, this was it, this was how I was going to die. No longer would I ever have to think about having a future for I would die here in Aro's arms. What struck me as odd was that I was not afraid to die, after all I had lived so many lifetimes maybe this was how it was supposed to happen all along. I was wrong. At the last moment Ares turned us and instead of the Aro hitting me it went right into Aro's back just as Ares stood and shoved his sword through Alexander.
