Flight of the Pendraig Ch3

[Near Safe Harbor]

Jade couldn't believe the day she was having. Jade was out hunting for some food when she saw this blonde succubus with dark skin, ram horns, and red wings flying towards Safe Harbor. She knew that there was going to be trouble. If there's one thing succubi are known for it's causing chaos and eating people. Jade raced to Safe Harbor as fast as she could, when the succubus landed in front of the settlement. There was no way Jade was going to let her eat the people she had sworn to protect.

In front of the succubus was Tamira, she is a knight with a short red ponytail; blue eyes, and wearing plate armor with her sword and shield. Tamira was the only survivor from when Jade destroyed her village in a fit of ravenous hunger. She sought to avenge her family and friends, but she lost the fight and agreed to help Jade to protect Safe Harbor from predators like this succubus.

"Where is your precious protector Jade? I didn't scare her off did I?" The succubus asked with sickening sweetness.

"Scare Jade off? You invade our home and threaten all of us, you should be scared!" Tamira shouts in retort as she draws her sword and shield made from a Naga scale. The succubus smiled down at the female knight and laughed.

"Why should I be scared of a giantess who has rejected her nature? She is no match for me." The succubus boasted and reached down to Tamira.

Jade couldn't let her harm Tamira or the others, so she charged towards the demoness and rammed into her side. She was taken off guard and fell to the ground hard. As she began to get up, Jade used all her weight to push the succubus away from Tamira and slammed her fist into her stomach.

She released a horrible screech as she was knocked into a nearby tree. She got up and stumbled backward and smiled wickedly at me.

"So, your Jade? The giant protector of Safe Harbor?" She chuckled and stood up and introduced herself.

"I am Princess Chastaine, daughter of Queen Faldhatée. Ruler of the Fire Succubi. I have heard a lot about you and I must say, you are far less impressive up close. Why do you give in to your predator instincts, Jade?" She asked Jade in a sickeningly sweet voice.

Jade couldn't help but look at Tamira for a second. All the guilt she had felt for devouring Tamira's village came back to haunt her. Tamira looked at Jade with a cautious look on her face. After all, she had every right to kill her for what Jade had done. They both looked at each other for a second until the succubus laughed in front of them.

"You both look guilty of something. You remember what you did, Jade?" She asked as she strut forward with a wicked smile on her face.

"You ate her entire village and left her all alone, they welcomed you to their village and you killed almost every last one of those tasty humans." Chastaine gloated as she saw Jade trembling, that painful memory was tormenting her mind.

The savageness and ravenous appetite, the screams and... that horrible taste of human flesh. It was too painful to remember. It was because Jade lost control that she devoured Tamira's village when she was a child. Jade was so hungry that she couldn't control herself, but it still doesn't justify what she had done. But Jade had sworn an oath to protect those she once preyed on, never again will Jade be a predator. For she was their protector now. Jade looked at Tamira and nodded her head towards Safe Harbor. Jade knew that she would protect them while she faced this demon. Tamira nodded and fell back to Safe Harbor as Jade turned to the succubus.

"Oh! Sending your little pet human to protect the others? Hah! Your little human won't be much of a match for me. She could barely hold her own against the weak and pathetic demons in Hell." She mocked as she looked at Tamira.
