Amaris Compton.

Symphora Compton from 'Ancient being.'

SYMPHORA COMPTON

'What is this oppressing terror reigning down on me...??'

I could tell just from a glance. No demon or dragon I've faced up until now would pose as much a threat as he will.

The blonde man approaches with aloof eyes casually glancing around the stadium which was constructed right before our eyes. Could this be the epitome of death...?

"You... who are you?"

"Does that matter? One of us is about to die and—"

He stretches and points to the seats behind me.

"He's watching over us. There's nothing we can do agai—"

I lunge forward with the intent of penetrating my daggers through both his eyes, but far quicker than I can react, he disappears from my line of sight before a stinging sensation suddenly assaults the base of my neck.

'Impossible!'

The black gloves seemed to seamlessly flow through the air as blow after blow drummed deep into my conscience and rooted a fear unlike anything I've felt.

'His punches are effective against the scales!? I have to activate the runes—'

AMARIS COMPTON

A chill struck my spine and ran down it like lightning to a rod. My instincts cried out and sensed the impending doom which I was facing. I drop all other actions and quickly grab his head; immediately crushing it as a precautionary method.

That was close.

I could feel it.

I was about to die.

When was the last time I've felt fear like this?
