Chapter 13: Betrayal
Brianna laid her head on Alexander's chest, his heartbeat soothed her, each beat getting her closer to slumber. The children, now adults, slept in their beds in their home. Alexander woke up, and went to the refrigerator, he got some plums and he slowly ate them. Something in his brain snapped, however, he grabbed a knife and his wand, he went to Darren's room. Darren was fast asleep but woke up when the door opened. "Sorry to do this, son" Alexander said, and with that, he stabbed and mortally wounded his son. Darren lay there, dying, and screaming. Brianna heard the screams, and grabbed a metal bat from under the bed. Alexander cast Avada Kedavra on his second son, Alexander Jr., then he mortally wounded (Sectumsempra) Shay, as he was about to stab Freddy, Brianna snuck up from behind and clubbed him as hard as she could on his head, the blow was hard enough to kill him. Freddy got up from his bed and hugged his mother tightly, then Brianna took Darren and Shay to the hospital. A few days later, the two mortally wounded children survived, and were well enough to go to their father's and their brother's funerals. After the funerals, the remaining children went home with their mother, Brianna called the godparents of Alexander Jr., who didn't yet know of his untimely death. Adrenn and Sally weren't together, but they were Alexander's godparents, they stopped by when they were notified of their godson's death. "Oh my God, poor Alex, you say that his father killed him?" Sally said, shocked, then Brianna replied "had to kill the father of these children so he wouldn't harm them again". "You were very brave, a lesser woman would've been dead before they'd ever get a chance" Adrenn said.
