Mika stood in the doorway looking at the bat like creature who was over Ari. Blood covered her front and downt he creatures claw. Insermountable rage filled Mika. He heard her whisper his name and the amount of blood covering her made his posessive instict kick in hard. He rammed the creature away from her tearing at its wings to keep it from taking off. Drax wailed in agony as his wings were shredded and partially torn from his body. He reared back to grab Mika and sling him across the room. Mika sailed through the air but landed fine on his feet and rushed back to Drax sending blow after blow to his sides making the vampire contract to protect his core. The vampire slashed at Mika's snout causing his blood to splatter on the floor. Mika growled his disapproval and caught the second wrist in his massive jaws and *SNAP!* *Crunch* he crushed Drax's wrist. The vampire roared with outrage kicking Mika with one of his three toed feet. This time Mika did loose his footing as he had not expected such an impact. Drax was on him snapping despartertly to get to Mika's throat. Teeth razor sharp snapped and fought their way to inch closer to him. Droil began to drip from the monster's giant mouth. He could feel the three toed feet holding his own ankles down, digging into them to pin them to the ground. The creatures hand were supporting itself atop Mika so it could angel itself to tear him apart with its teeth.
"Here." Ari was on top of Drax putting the chair as far back into his mouth that his teeth could not chop down on. She was gagging him pulling his head far back making Drax back flex forward. Drax tried to snap and growl at them but the gag made the noise more of a rumble from his throat. Mika grabbed Drax's throat to keep him in place for less struggle for Ari, and drove his other hand into the creatures chest cavity. Drax tried to buck Ari off but Mika locked his long legs around him pinning him on top of hisself. When Drax couldn't get her off by bucking he began racking his good claw across her back while he balanced on the weakened wrist. Ari bite her lip and stiffled the cries even as her flesh ripped and blood heavily coated her backside. Mika drove harder till he found his prize. Drax's eyes enlarged and he became frantic. Mika gripped the withered organ and snatched it from his body. A sickening suction sound followed and Drax went limp. Ari slid off the creature's back and sat her self on the ground. Breathless and in an incredible amount of pain, she watched as
Mika crushed the withered black organ in his claw watching it turn to dust. He then threw Drax dead body off of him. For good measure he sliced his head from his body. Throwing it into the flames of the fireplace. Comfortable that Drax would not regenerate his attention went back to Ari. He shifted back to his human form in seconds returning to her. She was very pale and laying on her side in a puddle of blood. Panic filled his soul. "No. No" he breathed. She smiled up at him no fear on her face. She felt so cold and her face was so pale. He could feel her life force ebbing away with each heartbeat.
"Ari please don't go." he picked her up genetly. Her white cotton gown clung to her front sticky from the large gash taht came across her left collar bone to her breast. When he lifted her to see the back he could see the dress was slashed and stained red. He saw the gapping wounds on her back were deep and many. He craddled her in his arms as gently as he dared. "I am so sorry to bring you here Ari. I did this.." his voice so soft and low. His heart was threatening to break right there and he choked on the last sentance. "Mika." she whispered her bottom lip busted and swollen. Forgiveness, her forgiveness to him. She did not blame him. She never would've. She made the choice to follow him. He'd heard that vary tone before. What seemed like so long ago he'd heard it in his dreams. It had been her, it had been this point that he had been warned about. "I can't loose you Ari." tears filled his eyes. She tried to speak but she started choking on her own blood. The ruby liquid causing offense against her ivory skin tone now. She coughed and Mika helped her to tilt her head to clear her airway. When she had control over herself again she placed one bloody palm on his face. She gave a weak smile, but her eyes showed no fear but utter love for the man holding her now.
She began to shake and her eyes rolled in the back of her head. Mika could hear her heart trying to push blood that was no longer in her body. "No!" He made wailed and made a split second descion. He craddled her neck close to his mouth and bite her deep. Praying to the goddess to let her take his mark and it not be too late. Barely any blood came into his mouth which worried him but he kept on. He brough his wrist to his own mouth and ripped a gash in it spilling his own blood on to her. Her titled her head and opened her pale busted lips letting his blood flow into her. *Goddess please let this work.* he prayed. Devion came into the room to find Mika holding a bloody Ari. Watching from a far their alpah with who was suppose to be their future luna, dying.
Ari's body began to convulse more. Red foam dribbled from her mouth. Her eyes remained distant and unfocused. Mika laid her body ont he gorund and tried to keep her from choking. He felt lost, so compelty unsure of himself watching her die. Then she went still. He did not hear her heartbeat any more. Mika's breath left him. He would follow her into the afterlife. He cold not bare the thought of never seeing her again, never hearing her again. He did not deserve to live after this.
