He who makes a beast out of himself...

Mikey's POV*

Shit. How did Amanda get back in the picture? And why isn't she dead? I ripped her heart out for fuck's sake. Being an angel/vampire hybrid, that should've killed her. Thank god Jacqueline didn't believe her when Amanda told her what I did. That would completely destroy my plan. I already have to work around the fact that the boys from Avenged are helping her unlock her powers but if Jacqueline found out who I was then things would go to shit. For me. I knew these guys weren't human but I didn't know exactly what they were. Even though Amanda has some vampire in her, her angel side is stronger so she can't read minds. But I had no clue what these guys could do. Speaking of which, Zacky V is glaring at me. Oh shit...

"So what brings you here Mikey?" Jacqueline asked with a smile. Her voice is so sweet. I can't wait to hear screams, her cries, her pleads for me to kill her. It'll be music to my ears.

"Yeah Mikey. What brings you here?" Zacky repeated in a bitter tone. There's now no doubt that he can read minds.

"Just checking on my favorite tattoo artist. You hit your head pretty hard." I said nonchalantly.

"Oh I'm fine, I just..." She put her hand on her nose and gasped. "J-just had a nose bleed."

Perfect. "Are you sure? It sure looked like you broke your nose..."

"I uh..."

"Just a nose bleed. They checked her head and then let us leave." Brian butted in, catching on to what I was doing.

"Well I hope you get better sweetie. When do you think you'll be back at work?"

"Monday." Amanda said, voice chalk filled with fear.

"Monday?"

"I was just reunited with my best friend after 4 years. She's coming back on Monday."

"But it's Thursday." Jacqueline retorted.

"Does it look like I give a shit? Anywhore, we're a little busy so she'll talk to you later." Amanda mumbled while avoided eye contact with me. I have her right where I want her.

"Alright but can I ask you something in private?"

I watched her tense up and nod slowly. We walked outside and I pushed her up against the wall. She winced and I chuckled at her fear.

"Don't worry sweetheart, I won't kill you. Yet. Don't think I didn't forget about our little meet up last year. And you better not try to keep me away from Jacqueline or you'll end up like poor little Mary. Don't test me." I hissed in her face. She was practically shaking but her eyes showed anger.

"I'm going to kill you." Amanda spoke. "And I guess you're surprised at why I'm still alive? An angel and vampire isn't all I am. But you don't need to know what the third part is. And neother does Jacqueline who, speaking of which, won't fall for your bullshit. She's gonna get your powers and we'll kill you Mikey. Or should I say Lucifer?"

I let out a throaty growl and wrapped my hand around her throat. "Watch who your talking to you little bitch. Don't think I won't end your pathetic little life right here, right now."

"But then that'd ruin your plan, now wouldn't it? And I don't think you want me going to heaven and getting the big guy involved now do you."

"You would'nt."

"Try me bitch. I have no problem in asking for a favor. And I'm sure you would like to know that his son has taken a liking to Jacqueline. And I'm positive Brian isn't going anywhere. So run along little cunt. I'll be with Jacqueline waiting for your sorry ass to make a move. Then I'll rip out your heart just like you did to me." Amanda smirked at me and I let my hand slip from her throat.

"This isn't over Amanda. I will take what's mine in a matter of time and you won't be there to stop it." I pushed myself off of her and walked away.

"That's what you think." I could feel her smirking and crossimg her arms. How I wish I could kill her now. But I have to bide my time. Her punishment will come in time but for now she can think she has a chance. I like it when they fight anyways.

Zacky's POV*

I pulled Brian into the kitchen and looked over to Jacqueline. Jimmy was explaining to her about why her broken nose is gone. I moved my gaze to Brian's.

"I read that fucker's mind. He has a plan to kill Jacqueline amd sacrifice her so he can harvest her powers. I couldn't go any deeper cuz he was catching on but apparently he ripped out Amanda's heart last year..." I trailed off in disgust.

"Amanda was talking to me a couple minutes ago. She said he was the one who killed her mom but Jacqueline won't believe her."

Damnit. This kid knows what he's doing. Down at the shop he said he's the only one who knows what her name is and what she looks like. He must've gotten really close to her. Thank god we found her before Mikey tried anything.

"Mandy? Are you okay?" I heard Jacqueline say as the door slammed.

Amanda walked over to then and grabbed Jimmy then dragged him into the kitchen. I heard her tell Jacqueline to stay with Matt and Johnny then she sighed.

"We have a problem."

Third Person POV*

The three men looked at the small purple haired girl and shot her confusing looks. Amanda sighed and rubbed her forehead with the back of her hand.

"There's something you guys need to know before I explain this to you. But you can't tell Jacqueline or so help me I'll kill all three of you." Amanda warned.

She wasn't telling Jacqueline for her well being but Amnada knew she had to tell someone. She'd much rather tell Brian and Jimmy but Zacky could read minds. It'd me much easier to tell him aswell.

"We promise we won't tell her. So what is it." Jimmy asked as he looked down to the 5'1 girl.

"What Jacqueline is. A maxime creatura. There's only one other in the world. That other one... is me." Amanda spoke carefully in a hushed voice.

All three of the guys' jaw dropped. What Amanda had just told them was amazing but terrifying. Who would've guessed the most rarest species in the world that only had two of its kind didn't even know that they were best friends. Who would've guessed that the first maxime creatura hadn't tried to use their powers until they were 22 and the second one was best friends with the other and never told her what she was. It was weird. The things those two could do. Together, those two could be so powerful they could wipe out humanity. Or worse.

"So that's why you didn't die when Mikey ripped out your heart." Zacky mumbled, dumbfouned.

"Speaking of Mikey..." Amanda trailed off.

She tried to form the words in her mouth but couldn't. What was she supposed to say. God's fucking son was right next to her. Was she supposed to say 'So you like Jacqueline? Well that guy who's after her is secretly Satan just saying'. This was gonna get rough.

"Jacqueline should be here for this too..."

"Here for what?" Jacqueline walked into the kitchen with Johnny on her heels. "Oh and guess what just happened."

Before anyone could ask Matg walked in with a huge burn on his arm. Johnny was helping Jacqueline with her witch side and Matt got in the way. Long story short, he got burned by a huge fireball. Everyone laughed at the poor singer as he searched for an ice pack. Amanda's face fell amd she looked back at the boys and Jacqueline, ignoring Matt's groans in pain.

"Like I said, speaking of Mikey, you guys should know something about him."

Zacky gasped and stared at her wide eyed with a mouth slightly opened. Amanda shushed him and continued.

"We had a talk outside and he's planning on killing you Mo. He said that he'll take what's his in time and we won't be there to stop him. What I didn't tell you about last year is that, when Mikey killed your mom he tried to kill me too. But it didn't work. Then when we talked outside he talked about harvesting your powers. And one more thing about him-"

"Shut up Amanda! You're lying!" Jacqueline screamed at her.

"I'm not! Just listen to me!" Amanda shouted back.

"You just don't like Mikey! He's a good person I swear!" Jacqueline turned and walked out of the kitchen while Amanda and the boys followed.

"Jacqueline stop. You need to listen to me!" Amanda screamed while running after her friend who walked out the door.

"YOU'RE WRONG AMANDA. I'm going to Mikey's."

"Jacqueline..." Jacqueline walked out of the driveway. Amanda and the bous were hot on her heel.

"Jacqueline stop.." She kept walking.

"JACQUELINE RENEE TANNER. YOU WILL STOP WALKING THIS INSTANCE." Amanda's voice boomed throughout the area.

Suddenly Jacqueline couldn't move. Her feet stayed glued to that very spot.

"Now walk over to me." Amanda commanded.

Just as commanded, Jacqueline walked over to Amanda with a scowl.

"Now listen. Mikey wants to kill you. I'm not sugarcoating this. Mikey is gonna kill you. Then he's gonna sacrifice you. Then he's gonna harvest your powers and FUCKING KIKL US ALL." Amanda screamed at her best friend.

"LIES. FUCKING LIAR. Mikey wouldn't do that!"

"Oh really? Did it ever occur to you that Mikey is a devil? NOT JUST ANY DEVIL EITHER. MIKEY IS THE DEVIL. MIKEY IS FUCKING SATAN. MIKEY ISN'T EVEN IS FUCKING NAME HIS NAME IS LUCIFER. MIKEY IS LUCIFER AND LUCIFER IS OUT FOR YOUR BLOOD. THEN ONLY THING STOPPING HIM IS US. ME AND THE GUYS. HE KNOWS WHO BRIAN'S DAD IS AND HE KNOWS IF HE KILLS ONE OF US BEFORE YOU THEN GOD'S GONNA FUCKING DESTROY HIM. SO LUCIFER IS GONNA TAKE YOUR POWERS AND OVERTHROW THE BIG GUY CUZ YOU'RE A MAXIME CREATURA AND HE DOESN'T KNOW I'M THE OTHER ONE!" Amanda smacked her hand over her mouth and cursed under her breath.

"What the fuck did you say?" Jacqueline breathed.

"Mikey is Satan and I'm the second maxime creatura?" Amanda squeaked.

"I can't believe you." Jacqueline muttered before running off. She ignored the calls for her to come back and ran into the woods.

Jacqueline felt a sudden inclination of speed and felt the wind get stronger against her face. Seconds later, Jacqueline was in the middle of the woods. She felt the anger grow in the pit of her stomach. She felt the rage consume her body. She felt her icy blue eyes turn completely black. Her demon was taking over.

Notes

BOOM CLIFFHANGER.
It's hard to write while talking to your friend about disappointing our parents. Apparently tattoos are a big nono.
Anyways, MIKEY IS AN ASSHOLE SERIOUSLY.
What do you think his plan is?
Will Amanda and the guys find Jacqueline?
And the fuck is up with Jacqueline? Some paranormal shit right there.
Btw, next chapter, shit's gonna hit the fan. Just a warning. ;)
Stay tuned and enjoy. :)
