Riley jerked awake as a loud bang sounded off. She looked to see a giant with a human oak tree log in his hand, inches away from the cage.
"Get up you lousy, Angel, or what ever the hell you even are," the giant snarled, confusing Riley.
She looked at her hands, which weren't even human hands, but reptilian hands, almost dinosaur like. They had webbing and dragon like claws for fingernails. She had a longer jaw, which resembled a tyrranotitan and an ophiacodon's jaw. She saw that she also was covered with feathers and had a spiked tail, along with giant wings on her back and on her arms. She also had raptor like feet, wolf ears and more details from dinosaurs and what seemed like dragon abilities. She looked in her mirror with awe, then jumped when the cage opened, and a giant hand grabbed her suddenly. She squeaked with fear, then whimpered in pain as the pressure around her torso tightened. She thrashed wildly, her spiked tail hitting the surface of the giant's skin a couple of times, denting the thick, leathery hide. She snarled, then roared.
"If you keep this up you won't even have an upper torso you feathered pest!" He snapped.
Riley stopped thrashing, and glared at the giant. He looked at her dead in the eyes, and she froze up completely at the sight of his face. She could also hears pleading for freedom, souls pleading for freedom.
SoulKeeper she thought. She remembered hearing about them, how they could steal souls and make the bodies do whatever they wish, but she thought they weren't real.
"Y-y-you're a SoulKeeper," Riley breathed.
"Really, how could you tell?" The giant said, holing her up to eye level.
"I can hear them, pleading for freedom, from you!" Riley snarled, lashing out.
She knew that the only way to kill a SoulKeeper was to stab them in the heart with an steel blade. She also knew that SoulKeepers could steal souls when the victim least expects it.
Oh, please hurry guys! Riley thought, thrashing in the giant's grip.
***POV Swap!***
Markus banged on Cori's door, panicking. Saint and Parker followed.
Riley is unstable. BloodLust can use her as the ultimate weapon and soul seeker. She can be the cause for the death of the human race if we don't retrieve her! She can and WILL be forced to kill any human that is alive! Akatosh's words rang through Markus's head as he tried to recover from running all the way to his brothers for help.
"Yeah?" Cori said, slightly opening the door.
"Cori, we need your help." Markus said. "Get Alex and David, and tell them that we need help.
Cori looked at Markus confused as he explained why he was here.
"Wha- how- huh?" Cori said, confused greatly.
"Riley's a nuke. She can cause devastation and death if she is manipulated into thinking we've been lying. She is a bio weapon just waiting to go off." Akatosh said, currently as a giant.
"Weren't you human?" Cori asked.
"I am a sorcerer, I know every spell created, every enchantment, and every potion." Akatosh said.
"Well, can't you zap her back here or try to find her, rather than ask for our help?" Cori said.
"Her form must've changed since the strand of hair I collected to track her had been burned to ashes, rather than leaving a trail of smoke that leads to her location, and my teleportation spell has been warded against." Akatosh replied solemnly.
"Well, let's get this bio-weapon humanoid then! I'll get the others." Cori said, opening the door.
The others went in, and Akatosh stopped Markus from following.
"May I borrow your gun? I know a certain enchantment that can help us." Akatosh asked.
Markus looked at the colt, then handed it to him. "Don't jack it up. It was my father's. He passed a while back, and this is all he left for me."
"It will be quick, go join the others." Akatosh said.
Markus nodded, then went inside. Akatosh's hand began to glow as he began muttering an enchantment. The gun and his hand glowed for a short while, then it stopped. He went into the house, shutting the door behind him and went into the living room. Markus, Saint, Parker, Cori, Alex, and David were all waiting for him. Akatosh handed Markus back his gun, and sat down.
"So, what's the plan Marky?" David said.
