Knights - Earth

The awaiting

It took two weeks for the United Alliance to gain enough ground on Earth to scare the Corruption. The grounds of Oil City had become a battle field. At the head of the battle was Maxwell Raza, in midst of the battle Max was forced to run as a new... powerful enemy had attacked him. This enemy is the leader of whom sided with Azriel. His name..... is Zorcon.

chapter 1 the awaiting

Upon opening my eye's i sit up, my vision darting around the room looking for some signs of an escape. Then i realize my hands are tied to a rusty pipe. Across from me is a girl who wears a dark blue shirt, blue jeans, and a makeshift eye patch. She's laying in an uncomfortable position but is asleep. I turn my attention to a clanking sound, then a door opens a man wearing armor that has an up side down cross walks in and slaps the girl saying. "Wake your ass up." Glaring at the man i yell. "Leave her alone!" Which in turn causes him to slap me, then he grabs me by the shirt saying. "If lord Azriel didn't need you alive i'd kill you myself." He throws me back. and walks out slamming the door shut and the clanking sound follows. "I hate that asshole." Whispers the girl. I look to the rusty pipe trying to find a sharp edge. A smirk builds on my face and i rub the rope against the sharp area until i'm free. I look to the door making sure its completely locked. Knowing that it is i walk over to the girl making sure not to make a noise. Reaching into my pockets i pull out the box cutter Amilia gave me while we were unloading resources in the United Alliance home base and cut the girl loose. "I'm Maxwell Raza of the United Alliance. I'll do everything in my power to help you escape. We need to break that door." She nods in understanding. We walk to the side away from the door and sprint at the two doors. Much to our surprise the doors break open easily. At which we are equally surprised when we fall to the ground and roll for a few seconds we stand up and watch the truck screech to a halt. The girl and i slide down a hill. By this point at the soldiers from the vehicle are shooting at us. We get to the bottom of the hill and sprint through the woods until finding a house.

The girl and i enter into the house and i look at a wall finding a red couch, with various picture frames with photo's of people with X markings

(flashback)

I wake up finding myself back in that house. This time i'm in the basement. 'I knew those pictures had meaning.' From the shadows he steps replying. "And a mind reader. I will kill and eat you." He walks out of view and seems to be picking tools up and setting them down as he says. "If you had done as i said wouldn't have to eat you. But a man has to eat." I struggle saying. "Let me of this table you fucking phsyco. I'M NOT DIEING WITHOUT A FIGHT!!!"

(end)

The girl looks at me saying. "My name is Helen, thank you for saving me Maxwell Raza." I nod and say. "We can't stay here for too long." Raising an eyebrow she questions. "Why can't we stay here?" I look around the room trying to find a hint of the cannibal man. 'Do i tell her?' The evil man makes his presence known asking. "A good question boy. Do you tell her what i am? Either ay it will not matter." Helen seems a little shocked by the mans presence. It seems to shock her even more when i step in front in sort of a way only a brother would if he were fighting to keep his brother or sister safe from harm. "Oh come now, was it not so long ago that we shared good memories?" The man... no that thing questions. Helen understanding my protective nature and readies for a fight. With a sigh that thing in human skin says. "I thought i could do this without making a mess." Helen grabs a chair and hits the thing with it. To my horror it stands up a satanic smile on his face. Helen steps back. I pull out the box cutter by this point. "Amilia said i would need this." The thing draws a hand gun. I charge with a new found vampire speed making a cut on the mans neck and kicking him back, my vampire fangs now revealed i glare at the man with a new found anger. 'No, calm yourself, anger is pointless in a fight like this. Its what he depends on to win.' Helen gasps at the sight of my fangs. "You vampires are no different. I eat human meat. You drink human blood." I turn to Helen who only says to the thing. "He might be a vampire but he is in the United Alliance. They protect the good of all beings. If he does drink blood then he has a damn good reason for it." I nod in agreement adding. "I only drink blood from evil like you." Revealing my fangs i sink them into his neck and drain it of its blood. At first the monster in human form twitches, but its body falls limp. Raising an eyebrow Helen questions. "Why did that man know you, and what was he talking about?" Turning to her i answer. "He's a cannibal. two years ago i was almost his dinner." She nods in understanding saying. "That's why you said we shouldn't stay here for long." I nod and we head out and run along a path in the woods.
