The Thist for Blood (Sakume)

OoC: Ok, I know that the title is a bit cliche, but I really do suck at titles. Hope this will be very fun for the both of us. I will be using my newest character, Kinar. Link in sig.

BiC: Kinar hunted in the cold night, searching for food. No matter how much he had the urge to help the humans, he can never rid the hunger for human flesh.

I must find food for the night, Kinar told himself. I cannot stand this hunger for their flesh. It is irritating me.

Leaping from one rooftop to the next, Kinar used his senses to find his food. But sadly, there was nothing he could really find that was nearby. Suddenly, his head started to produce images, and Kinar looked into the near future. Maybe I might find food after all...

Kinar watched the future, and saw what would happen. He landed down onto the ground, into an alley. Walking through, something overhead seemed to be leaping over him, keeping an eye on him, most likely. Kinar swung his elbow blade when the figure tried to attack from behind, and Kinar swung it behind him.

The glimpse into the future ended, and Kinar became aware. Finally, some food for the night. Now I will not have to feast on that old man...

Kinar leaped off from the rooftop he stood on, and landed into the nearby alley. Once he landed, he heard the footsteps of the human-like figure. He knew that his food would soon come to him, as was predicted by his head. He started walking down the alley, slowly, listening to the movement of the human, leaping over him.

Suddenly, as was shown in Kinar's glimpse into the future, the figure jumped down from behind Kinar, and lunged at him. Kinar unsheathed his left elbow blade, and swung it behind him. The human figure jumped back, hiding half of his, or her, body in the shadows.

The smell of the human made Kinar eager to attack. Who could such a fine, juicy piece of meat be, I wonder? Finally, my stomach will bother me no longer.

OOC: Sure. It's okay. You say a human, eh? Very well. I'll use Sakume as before.

BIC: "Faster, faster, faster!" she told herself in a hiss. Her dark orbs ceasingly scanned the town as her feet pushed her high into the air. She leaped from one rooftop in the top to the next, always sensing the air. Her brother's scent, that of a thick mixtures of wood, came to her. He seemed to be further off than before. "How?" she wondered silently to herself.

She took a moment to land in an alley, semi-deciding on if she wanted to dine on the delectable heap of trash nearby, it mattered not what she ate, but rather that she consumed it quickly. She had no time for trifling matters such as eating and sleeping. She knew her condition likened to that of obsession, but she didn't care.

She came down almost on top of someone, very shocked. A flash of bright light came to her in the form of a blade, and she narrowly dodged. She leaped into the air once more, her dark eyes glaring knives at the person that dared to attack her in such a time. She snarled as she stepped forward out of the shadows.

"Who are you?" she snarled, her eyes slitting together.

"One who needs to feed." The reply came to her ears.

"So we are alike." She replied, knowing very well herself the need and pangs of the hunger unsatisfied. "I sense you are in fact not a werewolf like me, your appearance tells me this. However, you seem to be a creature of darkness, perhaps a vampire, one of my hated enemies. I cannot help but doubt this, though." She heard a licking sound, almost as if her opponent slid his tongue about his lips in anticipation of her blood. "You do want me then. I can sense it. Well then, if there will be no changing of your mind."

"There won't be." His voice stated, almost calmly.

"Well then..." Sakume trailed off, drawing her twin claws and clashing them together, her hair put back in a ponytail as it swayed slightly in the breeze of the wind. After twirling once to show she found herself ready to fight, she motioned for him to come closer. "Have at me."

OoC: Looks like we both are thirsty for blood XD.

BiC: Kinar was not foolish as to go straight after the girl. Therefore, he unsheathed his elbow blade he used before to strike her with, and hid into the shadows nearby, silently walking towards her. Sakume tried to smell his presence, but the garbage overclouded the demon's scent.

"Damn, I can't find him," Sakume muttered to herself, turning her head around to see where the demon might be hiding. Kinar knew he cannot be found, and the shadows were endless in the alleyway they were standing in. He knew the best time to strike was now.

Unsheathing his wrist blade, he lunged from high above the werewolf, and attempted to strike her. However, Sakume quickly countered by moving behind him, and as Kinar landed the werewolf swung her claw at his back.

His blood sprayed out as she ran her claws into his skin. The acidic blood flew onto Sakume's hand, and started to burn her skin. Kinar recieved more of the pain.

"What the hell?" Sakume said irritably. "What is with your blood?" Then something came into her head, and she realized the truth about the demon. "You aren't a vampire, are you?"

Kinar fell to the ground, and tried to hold the pain of the wound. The blood started to burn his skin, and opened up the scars more. How did this happen, he wondered. A weak mortal able to hit me with such precision? How did she even see me?

He got up, ignoring the fact that his skin was still burning. He unsheathed his elbow blades entirely, facing the werewolf that struck him from behind.

"You are a coward, striking me from behind like that," Kinar told Sakume.

"Are you angry because I struck you before you struck me?" Sakume smiled sarcastically at Kinar. "Maybe if you take off that bandanna from your eyes you could see me better."

"I do not have to see to see anything," Kinar explained. "I can sense you just fine."

"If you say so," Sakume said, opening her claws up to be ready for another attack. "But I was only reminding you of how easy it would be for you, that's all. But if you don't want to have it that easy, then suit yourself."

"If you want to fight me, then do not speak!" Kinar snarled at her. "Fight me!"

Sakume charged at the demon at her fullest speed. Kinar did the same. When they collided, the werwwolf's claws and the demon's blade collided, creating a sound similar to that of thunder. Then the two creatures pushed each other back, and charged once more. Kinar swung his blade at Sakume's head, but she dodged by ducking under the sweep, and came up with an uppercut. Kinar moved back, and back flipped towards Sakume, trying to kick overhead. Because it was unexpected, Sakume recieved the blow to her face. She was pushed back by the momentum of the kick, and she started to spit out blood. The werewolf looked at Kinar's face, wondering what sort of look he had in his eyes.

"I want to look into your eyes, demon!" Sakume shouted. "Take off that bandanna from them, now!"

OOC: I know it's somewhat short, but I'm running low on Inspiration right now. Forgive me, would you?

Sakume didn't understand enough about her foe, and it made her even more irritable than she was to begin with. She wanted to finish this battle quickly, but his slightly irregular movements made it difficult. She spat a little bit of bloody residue towards a nearby trashbin, smiling all the while. "You're more difficult than I thought." she uttered silently in her mind.

"I want to look into your eyes, demon!" she spontaneously shouted, wanting to make sure it was not a person, but in fact something other. "Take off that bandanna from them, now!"

"Come and take it off." Kinar waved her forward, challenging her.

"FINE!" Sakume jumped towards the wall of the alley, pushing off with incredible dexterity and leaping to the roof of the small house, after a few wall jumps. She hardly flinched when he did the same, his weapons drawn. Silence followed for a few moments as they each appeared to gaze into the other's eyes, drawing out what they could and hiding what they knew they didn't want the other to find out.

After a moment of waiting for him to make the first move, Sakume pushed her foot against the shingles of the roof a few times, a wolf's way of challenging someone for authority. Her tail stood out behind her, rigid and puffed up slightly, her hair on the back of her neck straight. "Shall we dance?"

OoC: I forgive you, but it's really nothing to worry about. As long as you are continuing the battle that shows a bit of inspiration, I think.

BiC: Kinar was not so hasty about making a move. He knew that the opponent herself will make the move for him. Once she comes at him, he knew what to do.

Kinar followed her movements closely, feeling the way she moved in the air, where her foot is landing everytime it hits the ground or the wall, or the rooftops that they are leaping off of. He knew that the werewolf is being cautious about where she is leaping to everytime her foot leaves the roof of each building or house. He knew that the werewolf knows how to hide in the shadows well, and seeing how it is night, then the battle will be... an equality of a sort for the both of them.

Your eyes deceit you, and your scent shows no promise with helping you fight me. I can be found nowhere, because I am everywhere. I am the shadow, foolish mortal, and there is nothing you are able to do that will help you defeat me.

The werewolf leaped across the large gap between the two buildings that they were each on. She swiped her sharp claws at the demon once she was at least a foot from him, but the demon moved aside from the attack, and countered with a blow to the stomach with his fist. She coughed up blood, which fell onto the demon's face. Then the werewolf fell to her knees, holding her stomach, coughing. The demon smiled, and picked her up off her feet by holding her throat.

"See, mortal? I cannot be defeated by you!" Kinar then licked his lips, where the blood was running down his face. He smiled wickedly, and he said to the werewolf, "This blood of yours is very delicious. You don't mind me eating your flesh, do you?"

Then Sakume grabbed his wrist, and told him, "Of course I don't!" As she said those words, she scratched his skin severely off his wrist, and more acidic blood came out, burning his skin off his body more. The werewolf jumped back, and stood in a defensive position. "But you will have to kill me, first."

"You stupid..." Kinar began, but then he stopped, and smiled wickedly once more. "Ok, then. If you want me to, then I will kill you. Before you can say die!"

OOC: Thanks. I'm glad you say that. I'm just...really busy lately. I don't reply to battles very quickly normally.

BIC: Sakume had now felt several mouthfuls of blood gush through her, but this did not phase her in the least. She had tasted this crimson river before, and she enjoyed it. She devoured flesh, not this being, whoever he was. Now he had the gall to ask her if he could eat her flesh? Hah. As if. With a flick of her claw, she skinned his wrist.

What on earth was that horrible acidic solution that coursed through his veins? Not blood, that's for sure. His smile reeked of wickedness, obviously not a trifler for fighting, he took what he did seriously in every way. He spat some needless comment at her which she hardly listened to and came at her in such a whirlwind it caught her off guard. His knee connected with her chest, pushing her up.

She felt her ankle locked with his hands and she was thrown with considerable force into the roof, where she lay for a moment. As he came up and peered over her, that horrible grin on his face, she latched both of her feet onto his neck and smirked, her eyes opening, though one had turned black.

You're a fool if you think I'm going to let you win that easily. Even though every bone in my body may break, I shall not die here. Not to someone like you. Only one thing shall ever kill me, and it's not you! She vaulted up, twisting with her legs to slam his body into the roof as she had been. "DIE." she stated purely out of spite, to show him that there was no way she was going to back down.

She licked one of her blades with her tongue, lapping up the blood while smiling. "I don't know why you wish to kill me, but you are not mortal obviously, neither am I." She hissed softly. "Wish I knew something about you before I kill you. I'm minding my own business, and here you come, trying to kill me... Is that all?"

BiC: So, she wants to know something about me, Kinar spoke to himself in his mind. The demon smirked, and stood up from the rooftop which he was thrown to. You are a mortal, for you possess such weak blood, coursing through your veins. Nonetheless, nomatter how weak your blood may be, it still quenches my thirst for the night, and your flesh will become my dinner.

Kinar leaped into the air, casting a silhouette (sp?) on the moon. Sakume saw him, but he went too fast for her to move away in time. Kinar grabbed her by the throat once more, and threw her viciously onto the ground, into the city streets. The demon jumped onto the ground, a few feet away from Sakume. The werewolf stood up, holding her throat and coughing, trying to regain her normal breathing. She noticed the demon walking slowly towards her, and took caution.

"So, you want to know something about me?" Kinar laughed, his demonic voice echoed through the city streets. "I guess since I will soon end your 'mortal' life, it will not hurt to let you know who killed you."

And with saying that, Kinar took off his bandanna, which covered his eyes. Sakume could not believe what her eyes have witnessed, for it did not seem possible.

"Your eyes... they're..." Sakume was shocked to know the truth of her opponent. "You are blind?!"

"Why are you so surprised?" Kinar asked with a smirk. "Is it because you now know that I was blind from the very beginning? Now you know that this whole time you were killed by a blind being." Kinar continued walking towards her, with a wickedly-made grin across his face. Sakume had the shocked look on her face still.

"Damn, he was blind this whole time?" She was annoyed by the idea, and knew that he did not trust sight, but his other senses. "Doesn't matter, since it's just like fighting anybody who has their sight. I just have to be more cautious, since he is a well-trained warrior."

Why does she think she will defeat me? Does she not know who she is dealing with? Such stupidity, coming from this being. It does not matter, for I will end her life soon enough, and get rid of this hunger that still bothers me.

Kinar noticed that the werewolf disappeared into the shadows nearby, trying to attack Kinar from behind or whatnot. Kinar just let out a small laugh, as he listened for her footsteps on the hard concrete they were standing on. I know you are here, Kinar said in his head. You cannot use my weapon against me, so do not try to attempt such foolishness.

But to his surprise, he did not hear any footsteps. Then a vision came to his mind. It showed the werewolf striking from behind him, as she jumps from the shadows behind him. More of his acidic blood comes out from his back, burning his skin even more.

Unfortunately, before Kinar could react to what he witnessed in his vision, the werewolf darted from behind him, unknown to him, and she swiped her sharp claws at his back. The demon let out a large yelp, letting the werewolf know that he was in more pain than before, when Sakume countered him before. "So I guess that you will not be so hard as I thought, so long as I try."

"You stupid mortal," Kinar spoke to her, clenching his teeth. "You still do not know who you are dealing with. As you already know, I am not human, and I do not possess such weak blood as you do, and as the rest of them do."

"Weak blood?" Sakume asked dumbfoundedly. "Oh, you mean the acid running through your veins?"

"Call it what you will, mortal, but it is 'acidic' because it is stronger than yours. Any beast that tries to feast on my flesh will die from the inside-out!" Kinar grinned wickedly. "Looks like you know something else about me. It doesn't matter, for you will die by my blades."

Sakume indeed was quite surprised as she realized her opponent was blind. Surely he had some sort of otherworld abilities to see her then. "You see things." She spoke plainly. "I can tell." After a moment, she backed away. "I have no wish to fight you, you know that. I defend myself. Why do you wish my blood and flesh above others? Fraid I can't let you have them." She hissed, exposing her canine teeth.

"So what if you have acid and stronger blood? I don't want your blood, anyway!" she cried, now frustrated as well. "You're the one that wants to eat me, remember?"

"I will destroy you and feast upon your foolish flesh one way or another."

"Why's that?" Sakume asked, snatching a nearby drainpipe and clambering up it with an extreme measure of dexterity.

He followed behind her, but said nothing. The very peak of sunrise was beginning to take place, and Sakume began to grow slightly weary of the fight. Her energy ran a bit low.

"I don't think either one of us will win this battle." She remarked, completing a very energetic cartwheel and smacking him back with a sickening crunch as her foot collided into his chin. "I think we should end it. I have no reason to fight you, and you can find some other poor defenseless being to feed upon. I have things to do and people to kill, and you're not one of them."

OoC: Sorry for the long wait. Exams are one hell of a nuisance.

BiC: The blind demon smirked as he listened to what the werewolf told him. Even if she is correct, that there are others to feast upon, she is trying to avoid fighting me. That is something I cannot allow. Kinar knew very well that avoiding a fight meant only one thing: his opponent is a coward. Well, that's more of a reason to end her life. Cowards do not deserve to live.

"I do not care what you say, fool! You avoiding this fight shows you are nothing but weak! I will make you stay here and fight me, or else you will die more painfully!" Kinar wickedly grinned once more. "And the reason I wish to eat you, is because eating someone who appears to be stronger than a usual mortal makes the flesh taste a lot more... stronger. So if you abandon this fight, that would make me much more disappointed than I already am."

"I don't care what you call me," Sakume yelled a reply, "But you and I both know that the sun is coming soon, and we both cannot survive the sun's rays of light".

Kinar noticed that the horizon is nearing the arrival of the sun. He knew that he would have to quickly get the werewolf, or else he would have to retreat back to the warehouse and get himself prepared better for the sun. All he had with him was a mask to protect his face from the sunlight, but his clothing and armour was scarred and ripped. Fighting in the light was not brave, nor smart, but a foolish decision. This mortal will not be able to stand in the sunlght, either, Kinar thought to himself, for she possesses a similar weakness as I to the luminescent nuisance. She would also have to escape the light, meaning that if I do not catch her to feast upon, then I will be bothered by my hunger for flesh. That old man will not like being nea me when that happens.

Then Kinar jumped at the werewolf, who tried to run from the blind demon. Kinar followed her closely, making sure he didn't get attacked by her. Both of them leaped from one buildingtop to buildingtop, attacking each other periodically as the chase continued. He had to make sure that he caught the werewolf in time, and then took her to the warehouse, so that his feasting would be a safe one. You will die by my blades, mortal, and you will be devoured by me. I promise you, mortal... I will dig my teeth into your body and rip you apart!

OoC: This one seems a bit weird, but don't worry, I'll do my best later on. Exams ruined my train of thought for this one XD.

OOC: It's okay. :3

BIC: Sakume, who in fact, was anything but a coward, only hated for fights to go on for so long, especially when she had better things to do than fight someone like this. She sighed as she lept from building to building, ignoring her weak body. The sun actually didn't bother her too much, she just disliked it. She sprawled onto the next roof, dodging a quick attack and replying with another cartwheel kick, though it didn't make contact.

"Eh, go ahead. Continue fighting me. I won't lose to you, but I don't want to fight you, either. You're not worth my time." She chuckled evilly. "You will die if you continue to pester me." She felt the throb of her pain every few moments. This angered her enough to deliver yet anther slice to the demon, specifically in his chest, where more acidic blood spilled out.

"That can't be good for you." She commented, chuckling as she saw him yet again follow her. I just can't seem to lose this guy. No matter how hard I try. It seems too difficult for me. Not like I can't defeat him if I tried, but still. Why do I always get the crazy ones?

"Too bad you wish to eat me. You're not going to. You'll just have to be hungry." She avoided a quick swipe by ducking down. "I don't really give a damn if you're disappointed. I have no one to account for but myself."

Why won't he leave me alone? I despise him already. He's annoying. Even though I deliver attack after attack, he doesn't seem to weaken. Why? He must be good at dodging pain. Oh, that sun! I hate it so. Oh well. It won't kill me. The rays of the morning light cascaded over the town, illuminating Sakume's blood-stained dirty figure. She glowered at Kinar. "Seems like morning has come."

OOC: Same with me. I'm running low on creative juice lately. I don't know how many battles I can uphold at once. Forgive the lack of imagination.

OoC: Well, morning did come. As you might guess, my character could survive in the sun, but his armour and clothing is ripped, making his skin exposed. However, that will not stop him. The sunlight at morning creates many large shadows...

BiC: Kinar's skin started to burn as he stood in the way of the dangerous light. Damn, it is already here. I should have stopped toying with her, and started to feast on her flesh! The torn-open skin on the demon's body became even more painful, making him yell out in pain this time. I must hide myself in the shadows. Only then will I have a chance against this mortal and the aggravation of the sun!

Kinar jumped down into the shadows, scaring the people who stood outside. He knew that since he never showed himself during the day, except in the area of the warehouse, the humans do not know of him. However, since there was such a large group of them, which he could undoubtedly feast upon, he never lets prey wander off. He used the shadows as a barrier from the sun's rays, and leaping from one shadow to another without feeling the effects of the sun is as easy as breathing for Kinar. I may be affected by the sun, and you may use it as a strength, but do not forget that where there is light, there is also darkness. Not one can survive without the other. You seem to underestimate my abilities, mortal.

Kinar lept through the patches of light between the shadows of the buildings that swallowed the ground beneath them. He avoided being burned by the sunlight that shot down from the sky, and tried to follow her. Only problem was that he lost her presence nearby. Damn her, he cursed. I cannot believe I lost her presence! This is impossible! But as he said that last word, he recieved a vision into his mind. I might find her with this...

Kinar saw the werewolf leaping onto the buildings. It wasn't long until she landed into the streets, infront of an old building. It looked like an old movie theatre, seeing as how there was the name "Cinemax" above the entrance, the same name of the popular movie theatre during 2200. He noticed the werewolf entering the building through the broken window, since the door was closed shut and barricated. The werwolf looked tired, and fell to the floor, sitting up with her back on the wall. Kinar smiled wickedly, now satisfied with the outcome of the supposed end to this battle. Finally will I rid of this hunger that stll lingers inside of me.

He jumped high, going into the sun. The light from the sun burned his scarred flesh severely, as Kinar tried finding out where this theatre was. Ignoring the pain of his scars in the sunlight, he searched, sensing far and wide in the area. Soon enough, he found it, north of his location. Nice try, mortal. I admit, you have fooled me and escaped me. However, this ends now. We will not converse with each other, for when I come we will only fight without word.

OoC: Sorry for the shortness, if it appears so. I can't tell, since my computer shows everything bigger than it usually is XD.

OoC: It's not that short. Especially when compared to my recent posts. I really am sorry for the lack in quality, I find myself extremely busy during the past few weeks.

BiC: Sakume lost sight of Kinar, but she knew better than to assume herself safe. He wouldn't give up until he lost her, which she deemed near impossible. She glanced behind her for a moment, but she didn't see him. She hurled herself towards the next building, stopping in front of the old abandoned theater. She once more took a small look behind her and leaped silently through a broken window, unable to use the door.

"Boy... This guy doesn't give up, does he?" Sakume asked herself, slumping against the floor. "I can't take much more of this."

Her thoughts lingered for a moment upon her past. She wondered where her brother was. She sat down, panting heavily when she heard a creak in the western part of the building. Surely he had not followed her! She growled softly, slinking back into the shadow. Sure enough, his figure soon appeared, though hidden, she could smell him. Her eyes locked upon his, though she knew he couldn't "see" her persay, he knew her location. He must have also sensed her tired panting, but she withdrew her claws, her lip curled back.

No words were needed. The sense of the end of the battle arose within her, urging her forward with an unknown strength. She paced her feet apart slightly, moving one claw behind her slightly and the other pointed towards him. She knew without a doubt, he wasn't going to eat her or kill her. However, there was no accounting for the impending nausea she knew. She snapped and in that moment, hurled towards him, with every force of hate and vengence she knew.

OoC: Sorry I took so long to reply. School is keeping me from my other activities, but everything settled down now so I will spend more time on it. I hope you still have the urge to continue, because this is far from over XD.

BiC: Kinar sensed the mortal coming after him, her sharp claws gleaming from the sunlight that shone through the small cracks and crevices out from the wall. His skin still burned, opening his wound up more and causing more pain along his back. He turned his head as far back as his neck would allow him to. Damn these scars. How can a weak mortal cause this much pain? Hmm... Maybe I shouldn't call her weak. He turned his head back to the werewolf, and she was a foot or two away from him. She swung her claw horizontally at him, but her simply ducked. The werewolf quickly swung vertically at him with her other claw, but he dodged to the side. The werewolf continuously swung at Kinar, and he simply dodged each move as it were child's play. The werewolf began panting harder than before, and was losing more of her strength after each attack, as it was evident to the demon.

"You bastard, die already!" she yelled at Kinar, demanding him to do as she said. She did not stop fighting the blind demon, as she was letting out a loud and aggresive groan every time she attempted to attack him. "Why won't you just die?!"

Unexpectedly, Kinar thrusted his hand at the werewolf, his sharp nails driven into her skin. She froze due to the pain she felt in her stomach, and coughed up blood. Kinar smiled, his sharp teeth showing and making sure the werewolf saw him. He let out a cold, wicked laugh. "You want to know why I can't die? I will tell you why." He twisted his hand that was in the werewolf's stomach, and she let out a cry of pain. Holding in the pain she felt, she clenched her teeth. "I cannot be killed by such a weak mortal as you, because my blood is stronger than your blood not only because it is acidic, but because it is royal blood." I know I am a fool to tell her this, but I am no longer part of the Taikuja Clan. They could not do more to me if I told her.

"What do you mean royal blood?" the werewolf asked throught clenched teeth, holding onto the demon's arm which is driving his hand deeper into her stomach. "Are you a king or something?"

"You can say that," he replied with a grin. "I was once prince of my people, the Taikuja. We were the dominant species over the humans that live above us. We feed off of them when it comes time, but we are not stupid to eat them all like our enemies, the vampires." He noticed the surprised look on her face when he told her this. He continued, "However, I was banished from my clan because of my father's stupid fear of the future."

"What future would that be?" she asked, scared to do so.

"He was told by a stupid servant of his, who could supposedly see the future, that I would kill not only humanity but my own people. For that I was banished, and now I am to live on my own." He let out a small chuckle, and explained further. "I shouldn't have told you this, for I would be executed." Kinar threw the werewolf vigorously to the wall. "That gives me more of a reason to kill you, I guess. Even if I am already banished and he no longer has me in his memory, it is still fun to kill such a... deliciously vicious mortal."

"Damn you, you son of a..." she began, but was interrupted by her coughing up of blood. She was holding the wound in her stomach, aching from everywhere as if she was hit from all side as hard as her stomach.* "I will execute you myself."

Kinar looked at her with a smile that showed delight in him. "This shall be fun, hopefully."

* Sorry that this seemed grammatically incorrect, but I tried to make this one make sense. I hope you understand this one.

“If you won’t leave me alone, I have no choice!” He’s a prince? Or was? “You hate vampires, I hate vampires, and we’re equal in that.” She dealt him a spinning kick to his jaw, knocking him back as her blood spattered on the ground. “Your story reminds me of a Greek myth, perhaps you’ve heard of it? Oedipus Rex… his story sounds much like yours.” She snarled slightly, picking herself up and coughing once more, wiping away the blood that stained her once pearly canines. She didn’t mind, in fact, she liked the taste of the liquid, even her own.

She wouldn’t have always, especially when she was younger, but her lycan urge forced her to lavish in the pool of blood, even wallow in it. “Now let me tell you a story. I used to be a human, before werewolves attacked my family. My brother did nothing to save us or defend us, and I defeated them myself, getting bit in the process.” She hissed, her hair hanging in reddened strings as they dripped with her own fluids. R
