It had been hours since she was left alone, it was dark too, Mara was smart, she knew that if Ollie and his team could find her that easily then she would most definitely need to get out of the woods and into a more unconventional spot. So, here she was nearing the edge of the forest, where the desert began. There was a war long ago that had a lot of the continent turned to desert and the area where the was still plants and life was where the districts were. Then she heard the cries of a girl. Grabbing her Holy Blade, the blade that could only be used by those who are of Angelic blood or at least have been permitted by the Coven to be part of the Twilight Hunters. The descendants of the fallen angels that have fought against demons for centuries, protecting humanity and for the last twenty years, there had been a war. President Martin Carleton, a former Twilight Hunter was now a employee of the devil himself; or so everyone thought when in fact, he was enticed by a powerful sorceress named after the goddess; Morrigan. Now, Mara was running to rescue some poor girl from a demon or worse, hearing the girl's desperate cries for help made her feel more desperate to help her. Once, she spotted the girl and the demon, she instantly knew that it was one of the demons sent by Martin Carleton. With many teeth, slimy skin and black eyes
"Hey! Leave her alone!" Mara yelled causing the demon to stand and take the form of her father
"Brave aren't you, Princess" he said and she got into battle stance
"More than you know" Mara challenged as the demon charged at her, dodging it, she took her Holy blade and slashed at it's back, killing it and then turned to the girl; looking at her she couldn't have been older than 12 or thirteen, she had no runes and Mara didn't recognize her
"Who are you?" The girl asked as Mara rushed over to her
"I'm Mara. You need help, you've been bitten" Mara said as she looked over the wounds, tears streamed down the girl's face
"My name is Kali" she said and Mara looked at her and smiled gently
"You know what attacked you, right?" Mara asked
"A demon. Your best bet would be to take me to the Fellowship" Kali said as she winced in pain, Mara froze and looked up
"Fellowship?" Mara questioned
"Yeah, Twilight Hunters" Kali replied as she took a deep breath
"Okay" Mara said hesitantly as she went to stand up but Kali grabbed her wrist
"Use your adama to make a healing hymn. That  should help keep the venom at bay until we can get back to the Fellowship" Kali said, reluctantly Mara grabbed her adama and drew the hymn on Kali's arm, helping her stand
"I can't believe that I'm actually breaking my oath" Mara muttered to herself
