Akumi: Redemption

The Alpha Widow

James Began to stir from his slumber. His eyes slowly opened, as his vision refocused. What shook him from his state of malaise, was a young woman staring at him with great curiosity. Her face being inches from his, James pushed her away and quickly stood up.

"Hey, what was that for you jerk."

James didn't answer, he was to busy trying to figure out where he is. It definitely wasn't New Hanover or New Austin. Looking to the sky, Wyverns can be seen flying overhead. What looked like fairy's where perched on a tree branch. Little green creatures where running around as well. James was becoming overwhelmed by the unfamiliar environment. His breathing becoming shallow and wheezy. He frantically looked around for any familiar sites. He was starting to feel an emotion that wasn't foreign to him but was uncommon, that being fear.

"Are you ok?" she said while trying to touching his shoulder.

He whipped around, locking eyes with the strange woman. She was possibly, the most strangest of all, her complexion was nearly as dark as his. But what stopped him from assuming she was of African American descent like himself. Was her long silver hair that was about the length of her waist, and violet colored eyes that he seemed to be filled with concern. Not to mention her unusual dress sense, a peculiar black coat with the brown lapels and the sleeves pulled up with a long red scarf comfortably tied around her neck. Long metallic boots, reaching the length of her knees. Sportimg a fitted navy blue leotard that perfectly caressed her curvy body. It also put her gorgeous legs on display, with her thighs that glisten in the setting sun.

"Are you gonna answer me or just keep staring" she said while blushing and crossing her arms.

James expression went from perplex to serious.

"Who or what in God's green earth are you, and where am I."

"Well..."

Before Akumi could answer, a blood curdling yelp caught their attention. A sense of dread came over James. He knew that sound well and immediately darted towards the source of the noise.

Darting through the dense woods, a labyrinth of ancient trees casting elongated shadows as the sun's golden glow began to fade, plunging the surroundings into an eerie twilight. The air thickened with an impending darkness, mirroring the desperation that gripped James as he frantically weaved through the underbrush, searching for his closest friend. His senses heightened, each passing minute cloaking the forest in deeper obscurity.

James's mind swirled with a tumultuous mix of emotions, a chaotic kaleidoscope of worry, fear, and a flicker of hope. Yet, amidst the whirlwind of thoughts, one incessant plea echoed in his mind like a haunting refrain: *Be okay, please be okay.*

Abruptly, a chilling symphony shattered the hushed ambience of the woods the blood-curdling lamentations of a familiar canine, a soulful cry that pierced through the encroaching darkness. Without a moment's hesitation, James sprinted toward the haunting melody, the sound growing louder and more desperate with every stride. As he approached the source of the distress, the air thickened with an almost tangible tension.

Finally, breaking through the thicket, James was met by a horrific sight. The eviscerated remains of his sleek black border collie lay scattered like a gruesome celebration of horror, resembling macabre confetti. The once-beloved companion wore an expression of terror etched into its lifeless visage. Crouched amidst the ghastly scene, four demonic entities voraciously feasted upon the dismembered corpse, casting an ominous and nightmarish tableau.

"NOOOOOO AAARNOOOOO!"

The monstrous beings abruptly ceased their gluttonous feast, their collective focus shifting towards the solitary bounty hunter. Six eerie green eyes fixated on him as they slowly rose from their hunched positions. These infernal entities bore an uncanny resemblance to ordinary human females, albeit with greasy, jet-black hair cascading down their shoulders and distinctly feminine silhouettes. Yet, the stark divergence became evident in their abnormal features-three pairs of breasts adorned their chests, massive batwings extended ominously from their backs, and menacing scorpion-like stinger tails flicked menacingly. Sinister smiles materialized on their mouths, tainted with the residue of blood and innards, creating an unsettling tableau of demonic allure. A tangible tension hung in the air, and James couldn't ignore the peculiar anomaly in their groin regions. An unsettling sight unfolded before him they were dripping like leaky faucets, and their nipples protruded erectly. A cocktail of confusion and terror gripped him in this bizarre scenario. Summoning his courage, he drew a deep breath to quell his nerves, locking eyes with them as he prepared his weapon for the impending confrontation.
