Third Person POV

Carrie and Joseph wait until the night falls. Everyone begins to descend to their dormitories and though Candace is still feeling a little weak, she is taken to her room with Harou.

She hates that just yesterday, she was able to feel the movements of her baby, and today, she feels an emptiness inside, almost as if she had part of her soul ripped away. She hates the fact that tomorrow she will have to say her last and final goodbyes to her dear little one. Dreaming of how she could have looked like, and how she would be as a grown women, the silly things that could of been as she grew and took her first walk, her first shifting, her first words, her first actual hug to her mom; nonetheless, those moments have long now left her future line.

She rests her head on her pillow, and though she dreads to sleep, her body is beyond exhausted, making sleep almost instantly after laying her head down. Harou sits on his side of the bed, his mind turmoiled by the whirl of thoughts in his head. He knows he should be sad, melancholic, and angry that he just lost his first baby. . . but he has a relief in his heart that the woman he is deeply in love with is still alive. He dreads the idea that he could have lost her. Inside, he misses his little girl. He wishes things could have gone differently, but the fact of the matter is, that they didn't. It's something that he and Candace will have to learn to deal and live with for the rest of their lives.

***********

Joseph waits for the right time to move. The moon is in a beautiful crescent shape, with a deep blue tint, giving the heavens the opportunity to the numerous stars to brighten in all of their glorious beauty.

Elena turns and tosses in her bed. Something inside of her telling her that there is something awfully wrong. She sits up on her bed, Alarick sitting up to the feel of her movements.

"What's wrong Elle? Can't you sleep tonight?" He asks her, getting himself closer to her, wrapping his arms around her, embracing her tight, and kissing her shoulder.

She sighs deeply, closing her eyes as she tilts her head closer to him. "I can't seem to be able to sleep tonight. Something just doesn't add up. Why did Candace's baby die? She was strong enough to withstand this? I just don't understand." She nods her head and sighs.

Alarick narrows his head, it's true, the elders had informed him that this treaty, along with the ritual would have been a complete success. He was certain that no one could get hurt by this. It was nothing but a joining of bloods among friends, or brothers. IT had been done before, without drastic consequences.

He tried to ponder of anything he could have missed. His senses had always been impeccably good. Standing to his feet, and walking towards his window, he sees movement outside by the infirmary. Alerting him that there may be an intruder among their territory.

Quickly, he places his shoes on, and alerts Dylan along with his trusted guards to join him and investigate what may be going on inside the infirmary.

Elena looks at him confused, trying to gather his attention to no avail. She holds his hand, quickly making him stop on his tracks and looking at him.

"Alarick? What is going on? What's happening?" She looks at him, making him bring his arms around her and kissing the top of her head. "I don't know Elle, but I hope nothing bad. Please, stay here, and I will return as soon as I replace out what is going on." He moves quickly, vanishing from her sight in a mere second.

Joseph moves steadfast, but not fast enough to be undetected by Dylan and the guards. Dylan stands before him. HIs face unamused by his presence angry with the words he heard earlier from Joseph and his mother.

"What are you doing in here Joseph? The infirmary is closed at this time. Only the ladies in charge of the infirmary and patients are allowed in here, and by the looks of it, you don't seem to be sick or hurt." His presence emitting dominance over Joseph. He lowers his head and backs away slowly, stopping on his track by the feel of a brick wall behind him.

A brick wall he had unexpected. The wall moving and growling at him, startling him as he flinches in his spot. He slowly turns, realizing Alarick is behind him.

"Joseph? Dylan asked you a question, what are you doing here? I was not aware that you had someone sick in here. The infirmary has been free of patients since we arrived in this land. So what are you doing in here? Did you suddenly fall ill? Or hurt badly that you need special attention from the ladies that you can't tend to for yourself? You seem unharmed to me, and it doesn't look like you are suffering in any way. So what business do you have in here?"

Joseph stutters, unable to respond to his interrogation. "I- I, I'm sorry. I just wanted to ask the elder ladies for a tonic to sleep, I seem to be unable to fall asleep tonight; and as you know, I have many duties to tend to tomorrow. I need to get some sleep before the sun begins to rise."

Alarick chuckles, and brings his hand to his chin. biting his lower lip, exposing his canines, and his eyes turning dark. Joseph suddenly fears for is life, he knows Alarick is stealth and can be very deadly when angered.

"Joseph, did you know I have always been able to tell when someone is lying to me? And I can tell that you are lying to me, Joseph. I don't like being lied to." He sneers, coming closer to Joseph, making him take a step back.

He gets closer, and closer, taking one step closer after another until Joseph is pinned against the wall and Alarick. He tilts his head to the side and closes his eyes. He knows he's going to have no choice but to tell him why he is really here. But if he does so, Carrie will be completely angry at him; and that means he will be doomed either way.

"Alarick? What's going on?" Alarick becomes startled to the sound of Elena as she stands by the infirmary's entrance. She takes a step close, realizing what is happening, she gulps and looks between all the men. A loud chlash warns them of another intruder inside the infirmary.

Quickly, she runs towards the room where they had laid the body of Harou and Candace's baby. She bursts in to the room, but realizes that while the men were arguing with him, Carrie has already made her way inside, the lifeless tiny body of Candace's baby is in her arms.

"Mom? What are you doin in here? what are you doing with the baby? put her down at once!" Elena pants, she slowly walks to her mother, focusing on not turning her eyesight away from her.

Carrie brings her arm forward, a small surge of energy emitting from her hand, making Elena stop in her tracks.

"Get back Elle! This doesn't concern you. Now, step away, and let me get out, and no one will get hurt." Elena narrows her eyebrows and her eyes turn dark. "I can't let you do that. Put the baby down mother, or I won't be able to stop my wolf from taking over. Now, slowly put the baby down. I mean it!" She growls, exposing her canines as the men make their way to the room.

"Elle, what's happening?" Elena quickly turns, seeing Emma by the door and feels a surge of energy blasting her and making her hit against the wall. Carrie had taken advantage of Elena's distraction from Emma and blasting her with her energy. Emma gasps, and quickly runs to aid Elena, dropping to her knees and lifting Elena with her hands. Elena sees her chest, a dark red mark from the impact of Carries attack quickly fades away.

She's shocked by how quickly she heals, and looks at Emma. Emma smiles and shrugs her shoulders, a stray tear running down her cheek. " I guess I'm exposed now! I'm not just a vampire Elle, my mom was a healer. I have always been able to heal instantly when I get injured, and now you can too due to our joining of ritual. But I'm afraid that it wasn't enough to save Candace's baby." She narrows her eyebrows, a big knot caught in her throat as she turns her head away from Elena.

She stands, giving her hand for Elena to take and rising her to her feet as well. Elena takes her hands in hers, and hugging her. "Thank you Em! For all your help, I don't hold it against you for keeping from me your lineage. There is nothing wrong with you for not being a pure blood of the vampires. You are still you, and I will always be your friend, and sister." She smiles at her, but their distraction is to the advantage of Carrie, as she comes forward, penetrating Emma's back and ripping away her heart from her chest.

Elena's eyes widen in shock, as Alarick's who stands by the door. Emma's eyes slowly loose their light, and turning her into a grayish morbid look. Slowly her body falling in front of Elena, The blood tinting Elena's night gown as she holds Emma steady, shock in her face as she begins to cry and holds Emma embraced tightly.

"No! What have you done? Why did you do this? You treacherous evil witch!" Elena's voice broken, and filled with a turmoil, disappointment, and anger.

She quickly stands, ready to rip Carrie apart, but she vanishes before her eyes. Alarick comes close to her, embracing her tight, and kissing the top of her head.

They feel a sudden wind, and turn to realize Keiran stands before them, shock in his face as he sees the lifeless body of his wife. He stands in shock, and slowly, his face turns towards them, furious, he growls, realizing Elena's gown is filled with her blood.

"You! What did you do to my wife? It was you! You killed her. . ." Steadfast, he exposes his fangs and launches towards Elena. Alarick, instinctively shifts onto his wolf and begins to attack Keiran, pinning him down to the ground to stop him from attacking Elena and hurting her.

"Keiran, this isn't what it looks like. Listen to me!" ALarick tries to get through Keiran, but to no avail. His anger is too strong to get him to reason with the facts.

He kicks Alarick off of him, and runs towards Elena, holding her by her throat and lifting her off the ground. "I'm going to kill you, just like you killed my wife. She did nothing but love you like a sister, and you repaid her by stabbing her in her back." He readies his fangs, sneering close to Elena, unwilling to give her a chance to explain the event.

Alarick quickly tackles him, pinning him down once again on the ground as Elena heaves and coughs, trying to catch her breath.

Dylan quickly makes his way as he comes back inside after dealing with Joseph, and aids Elena to a safe spot. She fears and shakes as she sees Keiran and Alarick fight. Quickly, they are both torn apart by their own guards. Though they struggle to maintain them apart, they hold their ground and keep them in place.

"Mock my words Alarick, this treaty is now considered a treachery in your behalf! And this. . . means war! I will have my revenge on my wife's behalf. Doesn't matter how long it takes me. . . . I will have MY. REVENGE!"
