Charles swore softly and closed his eyes. ”Henry. Bring the witch to us. We need her help.”
Lysander knelt beside Betty and held his hunt up to her. ”Here. Drink this. It’ll give you your strength back.” he said gently.
”Father?” Henry bolted upright, jostling Tyler, as he heard Charles’s call.
"Henry?" Tyler asked.
Betty looked at him before she sunk her fangs into it
”Why can’t you leave me alone?” Henry buried his head in his hands. ”I'm sorry Tyler. I was just surprised. I’m alright.” he sighed.
Lysander gave Betty an encouraging smile as he watched her and gently took her uninjured hand in his.
Betty finished drinking and thier was blood on her lips and a drop going down the side of chin.
”Do you feel any better?” Lysander asked, still holding Betty's hand as Charles continued to apply Wolfsbane to her bite.
”Hey, Tyler?” Henry asked softly. ”Would you mind if I took you somewhere?”
" no" she said and shook her head.
(Wait. Who said that? Betty or Tyler?)
Henry nodded and stood up before gently scooping Tyler into his arms against his chest. ”Is this ok?”
Lysander sighed and held Betty's hand a little tighter. ”It’ll be ok, love.” he told her.
Henry gave her a caring smile and held her close as he started off.
Lysander nodded at her before glancing at Charles. ”Is that working at all?”
”It would be more helpful if I had the time or tools to make a poultice out of it, but it is weakening the poison.” Charles stated.
Henry held her closer, in a protective hold, as he ran.
Lysander looked at Betty in concern. ”It’ll be alright. You're stronger than anyone I know. You’ll be fine.”
Lysander shook his head. ”Don’t give up on me. You’ll be fine.”
Henry stopped running and gently set Tyler down before taking in the scene. ”Oh my-” he cut himself off before he finished the expression. ”Wolf bite?”
”Yes. And we need the young woman’s magic to help stop the poison.” Charles explained looking at Tyler. ”I know you don't care about my daughter but if you ever considered yourself her friend, you will help us.”
Tyler nodded stepping forward quickly snapping her neck
Henry's jaw dropped in shock as he watched, stunned by how easily Tyler just did that.
Charles gave her a firm glare. He knew that she understood exactly what he meant with his request.
Lysander didn't move. He couldn't. He didn't want to believe that she… He couldn't.
" problem solved " Tyler said as bettys hand released from lysanders and her body went limp
”No. Nononononono.” Lysander was in complete denial. His hands were shaking. He didn't even know what he was feeling at the moment.
”Tyler… Why would you… How…” Henry stammered.
”This was more than just your own abandonment issues.” Charles said lowly, still glaring at her. ”Tell me the truth: Why do you hate her?” he demanded.
Betty's veins turned black dignafying a vampires death and Tyler rolled her eyes
”Answer me, witch!” Charles now stood, towering over her. He wouldn't be surprised if she wasn't intimidated by his actions, though it had terrified many before.
" how ya feeling" she asked Lysander with a smirk
”S-she’ll come back. She has to.” Lysander mumbled in near hysterics. ”She did before. She’ll come back.”
Henry placed a hand on Tyler's shoulder. ”Happy now?” he glowered. ”What do you have against my brother? Betty; I sort of understood but, what did he do?” he raised a brow slightly. ”Don’t tell me you're jealous?”
