"Thanks. If the demons aren't taken care of, they will make more
fire. I'm going out to stop them." She said and took her sword from
her belt. It was light and thin, but also fast and very sharp. She
stepped outside.
''no problem'' replied Blake, nodding as well, ''I'm blake by the
way, also, if you excuse me'' he said, and went to the are where
the fire started. He started breaking down the burnt wood and
throwing it outside. ''I leave those guys to you two'' he finished.
The head and the decapitated body became shadow and spawned nearby,
harmless. ''hey, attacking from behind? that's not nice...'' he
said, and used a black flamethrower on her. ''that guy has a shadow
body, you can't cut him!'' said Blake, from behind, while breaking
the burnt walls
Isis flew upwards as he used the dark flamethrower. She jumped too
late, and the fire burnt her feet. She flew very fast and high to
escape. The fire started spreading and she got rid of it with the
holy water. She generated a small amount of light energy, and threw
it into the demon. She tried her best to ignore the pain left
behind by the demon's fire.
Melez grins as the two demons taunt her. (By the way, she looks
like a light skinned demon but her wings are the only thing that
make her look like an angel.) She looks around at the empty street
and she cracks her neck. "I haven't danced in a while... This
promises to be fun..." She slips into the shadows and appears
behind the one with black flames. She draws one of her daggers and
slits his throat. And she slips once more into the shadows and
reappears in front of the other demon.
''damn you!'' said the first one to Melez, as he tried to close his
neck's wound with black fire, succesfully. A drop of holy water
Isis spreaded on the fire reached his arm, which caught on flames
and fell off. ''GAAH!'' he cried out, and jumped back, near the
forest. ''damn it... it won't heal!!'' he shouted, as he tried to
reattach his arm. ''you'll pay for this!!'' he said, and he jumped
to the roof and up to Isis. His feet caught on black fire before
kicking Isis to the ground, followed by him. ''You're dead, girl''
he finished, as he approached to her.
The second demon jumped away from Melez, and shooted black flame
arrows to her from his hand as if it was a gun. ''you're mine!'' he
said, grabbing his sword and running to her
She draws a dagger, but not fast enough, the flame arrow pierced
her shoulder. She growls through clenched teeth as the flame seals
the wound. Ignoring the other demon, Melez throws the dagger in her
hand at the demon charging at her, as she draws two other from
under the flap in her armor.
Isis fell to the ground. Gravel and dirt got caught in her wings.
The dark fire was blazing, rapidly covering her legs. She almost
screamed. Isis flapped her wings quickly until she was off the
ground. She couldn't stand because of the dark fire burning her
feet, so she hovered. Isis charged her magic with the holy water
and threw the magic t the demon. She then used the holy water to
stop the dark flames.
The first Demon caught in fire and ran away, screaming, a few
seconds before disappearing from the world. ''damn you!'' said the
second one, as he saw his friend dying. Melez' dagger stabbed him
in the arm, cutting an important vein and stopping him from
running. ''All we had to do is bring back Shadow the de-''he said,
before a flying hammer hit him in the head, killing him instantly.
''those guys were always annoying'' said Blake, from behind, after
throwing the hammer that did the final shot. ''are you two okay?''
he asked
Melez stares at the hammer then looks up at the owner. "Just
peachy..." She says sarcastically as she holds her wound from the
arrow. She walks over to the body and grabs her dagger.
''...I'll heal you both, It's my fault they are here so that's the
least I can do'' he said, as he searched in his bag; only a pair of
mid-sized health potions, a pair of runes and a smoke bomb left.
''I should craft some stuff later'' he thought as he got the
potions out. He gave one to Melez and went to Isis. Blake grabbed
her carefully and put her in one of the tavern's tables. ''don't
move'' he said, and gave her a health potion as well. He grabbed a
rune and opened it, and the darkness that was infused in her legs
got absorbed by the rune, which became pitch-black. ''This should
do'' he said, as he burnt the rune with a candle's flame.
Melez nods and drinks the potion. She walks back into the tavern
and the bartender walks up and pats her on the back. She winces as
he hits her injured side. He chuckles and goes back to fixing and
cleaning. Melez turns back to Blake, "Who were they and why were
they after you, if you don't mind my asking..." She asks as she
lifts the flap revealing the many other daggers as she puts the
other two away.
Blake stood up. ''...I', Shadow Blake and I... betrayed the
underworld'' he said, as he walked to a near window, and looked
through it. ''used my alchemy knowledge to craft holy water and
killed Hades' son'' he finished, and looked back at them. ''you two
aren't normal people, you're an angel right, Isis?'' he asked
''also, can i know your name mrs. halfbreed?'' he asked as well
''I felt a slight darkness coming from you, It felt different from
demons or fallen angels though'' he replied. ''and i didn't know
she was an angel until she flew escaping from that demon'' he said.
''how does it feel? flying i mean...''
Melez sighs, "Flying is the most wonderous sensation there is...
Its freedom... You feel light as the sun dancing above the
clouds... But there is darkness as well... There is the constant
feeling of falling... The nagging at the back of your mind that you
will plummet to your death..."
''i see...'' he said, smiling, and turned back at her. ''does your
boss need a carpenter or an alchemist on this place? I feel like
staying here for a while'' he said
