Liam nodded his head. He stayed in the room, sitting down on the couch. He started to cry. He wiped his face again, and walked out. He looked around for James, and eventually found him in his bedroom. Liam immediately went into James' arms, and started sobbing. "Hey...! What's wrong..?" He lifted his chin, and looked into his eyes. "Where were you..? What happened..?" He asked, concerned. Liam shook his head, "I can't talk about it.." He looked back down. James sighed, "You can tell me anything..." He kissed Liam, and held him close. He guided him to his bed, and laid with him. He held Liam as he sobbed. --- Chris sighed, and followed his wife. "Well..? Is this about what had you so worried earlier..?" He asked.

Her hazel eyes looked into his, "It's about Liam. He warned me of something very important." She let go of his hands and ran one of them through his hair, "It's not safe for you to go to Hong Kong Jay, I know how much this trip meant to you, but you can't go.." Marcella knew that he was going to ask her why, so she thought it would be best to try and explain it to the best of her ability.. Or, to make it easier... "Do the names Lilian and Elliot Crawford ring any bells to you, Jay? If they do, I suggest that you stay home with your wife and children.."

Chris sighed, and sat on the bed. "Elliot and Lillian Crawford... I have haven't heard those names in a long time..." Chris then came to the realization... Liam's surname was Crawford.. Chris stood up, his jaw tightened, and his body tense. He went straight to James' bedroom. James and Liam were standing at this point, when Chris gripped Liam's shirt, and pushed him against the wall. "ARE YOU HERE TO HURT MY SON!?" Liam was shaking. James tried to push his father off of Liam. "DAD STOP!" Liam was silent, just crying. Chris got incredibly close to Liam's face. "Are you here to hurt my son..?" He asked again, calmly. Liam shook his head. "N-No..." CHris let him go, and stepped back. "Where are your parents..?" Chris asked. Liam cried again, "Are you going to kill them!?" James looked at them both in confusion, "Kill them!? Dad, what the hell is going on!?" Chris looked at his son, "Go in the kitchen with your sister, now." James got angry, and stood by Liam, "No..! Whatever you have to ask him you can say in front of me." Chris frowned, and looked at Liam. "If they threaten my family, yes. I will end their lives. Where are they..?" Liam was shaking. James looked at his father in horror, "Get out! You're scaring him!" He yelled. Liam shook his head, "It's not his fault... He has his reasons..." Liam then returned his attention to Chris. "Mr. Williams... I can go... If I-I need to..." James shook his head, "No! You're staying.." He looked at his dad, "He's staying, dad..!" "I'm going to ask you one last time, Liam... Where are Elliot and Lillian?" Liam's eyes were red at this point. "My mom is at the airport waiting for you. My dad is at home preparing.." Chris looked at him sternly, "Preparing for what?" Liam was still shaking. James eventually took his hands, and held him. He didn't care if anyone was watching, he wanted to comfort Liam. "He's preparing to take out your sisters..." Liam said, quietly and ashamed. James looked down at Liam in great concern. "Are your parents some kind of assassin..?" Liam looked up at him, and just nodded. James sighed, and held him even closer. He looked at his dad. "He's not going back..." James said sternly. Chris nodded. He was in Liam's position once upon a time... Chris left the boys, "Marcella!!!!!" He walked to his wife. "I need to handle this. Call Anna and tell her Elliot Crawford is coming for her. She can handle herself. She has Sorin and Daniel to back her up." He looked over at Celina, "Stay here, protect your brother..."

She exclaimed, "Let me go with you, you can't do this alone. Let me help you." Marcella grabbed her husband's hands, and looked at him with pleading eyes. She knew he wouldn't let her go, but it was worth a shot. "Or." She started to give him another choice, just to lighten his mood a little, "I can settle for a kiss or something, about to go kick another lady's ass at least give your wife some romance before leaving, hehe!" Marcella always figured out a way to make a serious situation, not so serious, anything to help Chris calm his nerves down so that he could concentrate fully. She kissed Chris, deeply, before letting go, she placed her hands on his chest and flashed a smile at him, "Come back home okay? Your babies need you here. I love you Jay.." --- Celina ran over to her brother and Liam, and did her best to protect them. She knew how much Liam meant to James, given the situation, it puts her in a tough spot as well. Looking at Liam, she placed her younger brother behind her, "You best start explaining Liam..." She stretched her arm to her side, so James wouldn't get pass.. "I understand what you have between my brother, but, I love him more than you ever could, if you or anyone of your family members even try to come near, my mother, my father and damn sure my brother, I will personally kill you myself and show no dearest mercy for it.." Celina may look like her mother, but when it comes to her craziness, she is definitely Christopher... She glared at Liam, wanting to protect her brother... "Talk. What business do you have with my family?"

Chris kissed his wife, long and hard. "I love you, Cella..." He frowned, "Their business is with me, they won't hurt you..." He held her close, "If I don't come back, Cella... Explain everything to James and Celina..." He was frowning, "Lillian is the most savage woman I have ever met... If it comes down to it, contact Anna. She will get you out of here. Elliot isn't as much of a threat as Lillian is, so she can get you out." He sighed, "I love you.." He said, before taking his leave... --- Liam was shaking, he looked to James. "Celina... Move..." James said. Liam shook his eyes, and breathed. "My parents are contract assassins. They worked for your grandmother..." James looked on, "Dad's mom..?" He asked Liam. Liam nodded, as he sniffled. "Your dad and your aunts killed your grandmother. I don't know why... But my parents lost out on a lot of work because of it." He shook his head, "I've already said too much..." He clenched his jaw, and stared down Celina. "My parents are going to kill me anyways..." There was fear in Liam's eyes. His whole body was coated in sweat. James put a hand on his sister's shoulder. "I don't think I'm the one that needs protecting, Celina... If you truly know what he means to me, you'll stand aside..." He said. Liam's bottom lip was trembling. If push came to shove, he could protect himself from any attack. His parents assured that. However, he wasn't here to hurt anyone. He was here to be with James. "Look at him, Celina... He's terrified.." James started pleading with his sister. "Please move. I don't want to use force on you."

Watching him leave the house, Marcella didn't even want to close the front door, it hurts so much to love a dangerous man. But she knew Chris played this game plenty of times, he was a master of it, he'll come home... Walking towards James' room, Marcella noticed her daughter doing exactly what her father told her, which was to protect her brother... Including herself in the room, she placed a hand on her daughter's shoulder, "Stand down solider, no need for that now." She sat on the bed, as she looked at Liam, Celina and James. "Listen Josie, your brother is right, we need to focus on protecting Liam rather than trying to fight him, he isn't our problem, his parents are." She made sure her point got across to her daughter, "That's why Daddy left, to take care of some unfinished business. I also have to call your Aunt Anna, to warn her." Marcella got up to go call Anna, to warn her of the presence of Elliot Crawford, picking up her phone, she dialed Anna's number... Meanwhile back in James' room, Celina looked at Liam, "Wow, I guess I owe you an apology Liam.." She crossed her arms, "But just because I'm apologizing, doesn't mean I'm taking what I said, back."

James scoffed, "You don't have to be such a bitch about apologizing." He took Liam into his arms, and held him tight. He kissed Liam's forehead, and then kissed his lips. Liam pulled back. "Your sister..." James shook his head, "I don't really care..." He kissed him again. Liam laid his head on James' chest. James looked at his sister. "You think dad will be ok..?" He asked. "Is your mom dangerous..?" James asked. Liam just nodded. James frowned. He sniffled, "My mom was apparently the best...." He looked up at James, crying, "I'm so sorry..." James held the sides of his head, "Don't be sorry..." James turned back to his sister, "This must have been what dad tried to hide from us..." Liam pulled back, and sat on the bed. James took his hand, "What do you know...? You don't have to answer or talk about it.." Liam shook his head. "Um... All I heard was my mom saying... 'What a shame that the great house of Williams fell because of three ungrateful children'.... I know your aunts were world renowned assassins... I'm not sure about your dad, though.. He more than like was an assassin aswell... They said he was her bodyguard, and closest worker..." He looked up at Celina, "I'd almost rather you killed me..." His eyes welled up again. "You don't just leave that world..." Tears ran down his face. "There are no true ways out..." James stood in front of him, "No... We'll protect you." James looked at Celina. "I swear if you lay one hand on even a strand of his hair..." Liam shook his head, "Don't threaten her, James... She's just trying to protect you." James frowned. He didn't feel he was the one needing protecting. Even now, Liam was protecting him. "You must have warned my mom.." James said. Liam nodded. He laughed a little, "To be honest.. I've heard stories about The Johanna Williams... I was always kinda scared of your dad... Seeing as he was her son..." James' heart broke a little. "He's nothing like her... From what you're telling me, she was a killing machine... Dad's... Dad's loving, and caring, and..." He touched the bruise on his jaw. Liam frowned.

She waited for her to answer, so that she could warn her about Elliot.. While she waited for her sister in law to pick up, she sent a message over to her husband, "Chris? Are you okay sweetheart?"Sure, her husband has been in worse situations, but that doesn't stop Marcella, she just wanted to make sure that her husband was safe and sound. --- Celina listened to her brother and Liam, she scoffed once her brother threatened her, like he would actually do anything to her? Though, she stopped her cocky attitude, and tuned in when Liam mentioned about his fear of her father, saying that he was almost identical to her grandmother, Johanna. Frowning, Celina couldn't deny the truth. Looking over at her brother, she had to confirm it, "Listen James, our father isn't the same man from our time as kids, he's...different now. I mean, the evidence is right on your face!"

Anna answered her phone, "Hello, Marcella..! You guys should really stop by.." She was eating. "Sorin made the awesome ribs..." Meanwhile Christopher did not respond... --- James looked at his sister. "Dad's not a monster, though..!" He looked at Liam and then Celina again, "He's... dad!" Liam shook his head, and stood. He placed a hand on his bruise, "From what I can see, he's good to you two... For the most part.." He smiled, and looked at Celina. He sat on the bed. "I guess when my mom is dead, I have to go back to New York..." James frowned, "back!? But.." James remained silent. They both sat in silence...

Marcella placed her hand over her face, sighing. It just never seems to end does it? "Eliot and Lilian Crawford are in town, and I can guarantee that they are wanting to pay you a visit. Chris already left out, so I'm here with the kids." Her voice was filled with much disdain, Marcella had no clue as to how much she would be able to take of this... --- Coming to her senses, Celina looked at the two boys, with a serious glare in her eyes. "Look!" She spoke towards them, "We have more serious problems on our hands, we have to focus on protecting Liam. Right now, his parents could come flying through that front door and we will have no means of protecting ourselves. So I suggest we stop the sulking and get prepared."

Anna was silent for a moment. "Get over here. Now." She said. "Right now, Marcella." Anna sounded very serious. --- Liam stood, "You're right.." He said. He reached into his bag, and pulled out a knife. He held it close, and looked out of the window. He was scared. He knew what his parents were capable of. He noticed Chris running back to the house. He turned to Celina and James, "Your dad is back..." James nodded, and went out to see his father. Chris stormed through the front door, he was covered in blood and cuts. He leaned against the door, and fell to the ground. "Shite..!" He yelled. "I think I got her..." He was breathing heavily, "Eliot is still out there.." James ran over to his dad, and helped him up. "What can I do to help!?" He asked his father. Chris shook his head, "You can let Anna and I handle this.." The door then blew open by a small explosion. James and Chris were knocked to the ground. Liam ran out when he heard the blast. When the fire subsided, a woman walked through. The had a small, athletic frame, long dark brown hair, and blood and cuts all over her. She wielded a knife in one hand, and a pistol in the other. "I told you we didn't have to take this to the children..." She said, throwing the blade at Chris. Chris caught the knife, and flipped over, throwing it right back at her. Lillian dodged it, and ran to him. She sent both feet to his sternum. Chris caught her by the ankles, and threw the woman against the table, breaking two of the legs of the table. She rolled onto her knees. "MOM STOP!" Liam yelled. Lillian sneered, not taking her eyes off Chris. "Go home, Liam... Mommy's working..." Chris frowned, "Marcella, get the kids out of here, NOW!" He silently reached down, and grabbed a pistol from underneath the end table. He cocked it, and raised an eyebrow. Lillian smirked, "Get out, Liam!" Liam turned to James. James was baffled by the entire sight. He was scared, and Liam knew it. Liam helped him up. "C'mon..!" He pulled James to the door, "C'MON!" James pulled away, "DAD!" James yelled, as Liam pulled him out of the door.

i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h377/Rainen20/phoebe_tonkin_cute_smile_zpsajqem54e.jpg Celina heard the front door of the house slam, she was just about to run out to see her father until an explosion occurred and the intense smell of smoke and flames engulfed the home. Covering her mouth, not wanting to breathe in the fumes, the older twin walked into the foyer of her home to witness her father and an unknown woman tussling. Putting the situation together, she knew that had to be Liam's mother! While the woman was on top of her father, Celina ran over and pulled the woman off, the force of the woman knocked Celina back into a table, knocking off a picture, as the frame fell to the marble floor and shattered on the cold ground... Just when she was about to retaliate once more, Celina heard her father call for her mother... --- Marcella heard her husband call out for her, she ran out of her room only to come in contact with smoke and debris. Coughing, she shielded her face from the fumes as the spreading fire encased her home.. "What the hell??" Marcella said to herself as she guided her way through her now broken home until she came across her husband and daughter. She noticed Lilian on the ground and her daughter in the moment of retaliating, in an instant, Marcella grabbed her daughter and placed her over her shoulders. "C'mon Josie! We need to leave now...!" Marcella carried her daughter out of the house only to meet up with her son, and Liam outside of the house. "C'mon! We can take my car!" Marcella bolted over to her car, sat Celina down on her feet, unlocked the luxury car. Once inside, she honked the horn for Liam and James to get in.

Liam was struggling to get James out. Marcella and Celina ran outside. Before Liam could even react he felt cold hands on him. He turned to see Victoria. Liam looked at the taller blonde with wide eyes, "Victoria...!" She took his arm, and walked him to her car. James finally tore his attention away from his home burning, to see Liam being taken. "GET AWAY FROM HIM!" James sent a punch at Victoria, who dodged the punch, and elbowed him in the throat. He gagged, and fell to his knees. She then gripped Liam's arm tighter, looking back at James. He looked familiar... She couldn't place a finger on it... But at this moment, she was more concerned with getting Liam out. "Victoria, they're helping me, I want to stay..!" Liam pleaded with her to let him go, and he eventually pulled away, running back to James. Liam turned, after making sure James was okay, and looked at Victoria. This was unlike any contract she had ever taken before. Liam wasn't entirely sure about Victoria's history, all he knew was that she was a very skilled assassin. Victoria took note of Celina, aswell... She wondered... "Come on, Liam..!" She said. James stood in front of him, "You'll have to get through me, first.." He said with a raspy voice. Victoria laughed, "You have no idea how poetic that is..." She then pursed her lips, as she walked toward him. "James, right..?" She said. James' jaw remained clenched. "You know.. I'm not sure why they hired me to babysit Liam, when I know he can defend himself, even against daddy dearest.." She shrugged, "But here we are... and this can end in two ways... You dying, or him coming with me.." She looked at Liam with her deep blue eyes, "Make your choice."

i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h377/Rainen20/phoebe_tonkin_cute_smile_zpsajqem54e.jpg Celina ran over to help her brother, when she noticed an unknown woman attack her younger sibling. "James!!" She yelled as she ran over to protect him. She knelt down next to him, looking at the woman who laid her hands on her little brother. "Who the hell are you?! What do you want??" --- Getting out of the car, Marcella hurried over to protect her children from the woman standing before them, she stood in front of Celina and James, glaring at the woman in front of her. "I'll give you a choice. You either leave, and I do not harm you. Or if you decide to stay.. I'll have no choice but to kill you." She looked back at her children, to check on them, before looking back at the woman, "The choice is now yours to make." Marcella seemed calm, but on the inside she was preparing for the unknown assailant's next move.. watching her move very closely..

Victoria looked blankly at Marcella, "Your son should be smarter than to interfere in other people's affairs... and..." She looked at Celina and James both. She wasn't sure before, but now she definitely knows who they are. She looked back at Marcella, "Isn't that what you taught them..?" She placed her hands on her hips, "I just need Liam... It's that simple.." Normally Victoria would have ripped through all three of them, but this time... It was... different. The question Celina asked her rung through her, and Victoria wondered if she cared enough to answer... Meanwhile, Lillian and Chris fought neck to neck in the house. Chris was in a corner, holding his gun, and Lillian was behind the broken remains of the table. "Why are you even here, Lillian... Revenge isn't exactly your style.." He said, gritting his teeth... Lillian chuckled, "No... It isn't, but keeping my word is.." She said... finally standing, looking at Chris. "I'm here to grant your mother's final wish..." Chris looked up at Lillian, finally standing on his own two feet. "To kill and replace me..? I don't know if you met my children, but they aren't cold blooded killers... Not like we are.. And if I recall correctly, Steve and Daniel rejected their purpose, and Sorin rejected my mother..." He laughed, "So Good luck with that.." Lillian shook her head, "Sorin... Is a skilled fighter... Nina's daughter Diana can be swayed, but you Chris... Your replacement has already been taken... She's a skilled fighter...." Chris' eyebrows furrowed, "What are you planning to do with Celina..?" He felt anger well up in his gut, as he pointed the gun directly between Lillian's eyes. Lillian laughed, "Not Celina, Chris... I'm referring to... Victoria..." Chris' eyes widened, Victoria..? He didn't have another daughter, atleast none that he knew of... Outside, Victoria looked at Celina, and with her hands up to show that she wouldn't attack, walked toward them. "You wanna know who I am..?" She was looked at Celina, "I'm your sister."
