Darkness Rises

Ravashing In Red/ Chapter eight

Salam slammed his fist into the creatures jaw as it tried to sink its teeth into his face, how could he forget, Oxyen had been plaged by demons for centuries untill the rise of the Dark Lord the had bern whipped out and enslaved but some had escaped and still terrorized villagers, living in this shitpit was a great place to hide from the Lords rule, the demon hissed tearing apart his breast plate, Salam elbowed it causing it to back away, it bellowed in anger sweeping its claw across his chest sliceing his flesh, Salam clucthed his teeth in anger as reached for his sword, the demon face broke into a crule smile as it raised its talons ready to finish him "STOP"  he felt his head cloud as Malena's sweet voice full af panic screamed at them he turned to look only to see her teal eyes blaze bright blue as flames shot from her hand colliding with the demon sending it flying off him, it screamed in pain as it brust into flames its black blood splashing on his face "Salam!" She shouted rushing to his side only to be attacked by the demon she left behind its talons flashed in the fading torch light as it swept across her back making her scream, but the demons soon followed as it also brust into flames. Salam rushed to her side before she could hit the water holding her against his bleeding chest "Malena?!" He shook her worried ignoring the burning pain as he touched her skin. He breathed a shigh of relif as she moaned  pained "hold on lass" he wispherd to her as she whimpered lifting her up in his arms, he had felt the gust of air and he knew they were close to the opening, he gritted his teeth in pain as his legs shook, his vision becomeing foggy. It was that damn venom in those bastard demon's claws it was made to paralyze their victems, being much stronger than Malena she was already unconciouse, he crused as he stopped the sun's light making him blink the pond below shimmered in the sun light this was it the opening "you can punish me for trying to drown you when you wake up lass" he grunted as vision began to double and without a other word he jumped, the wind wisking around him before he plunged into freezing water.

                                                          Micheal rolled of the fur made bed leaveing the female sleeping and stated as he pulled up his pants horick perched on the highest wooden split of the tent "such a naughty bird what do you have to show me little one?" He chuckled as horick chirped gliding down and perching on his shoulder, Micheal gritted his teeth as the sting of their connection strengthed he blinked back the haze as he momentairly only veiwed fog however soon all horick memories started to serface, he saw the forsaken lands, the demons, trees upon trees and then micheal blinked as he wacthed on old couple pulling a man and a woman out of a gleaming pool, he narrowed his eyes he could not see clearly who they were and all too soon horick pulled away, leaving him dazed "micheal ?" He growled as the woman wrapped her arms around his tarso in the process scaring horick off and servering the connection leaving a damn head ach in its place.
"What!" He barked shaking his head to clear it , she slide off the bed like the snake she was gloriously naked poseing before him her slender legs on full display as was her supple breasts tipped with frosted pink nipples, her slender neck and oval face was fanned with lush bright red hair that stopped at her narrow waist
" why do wont you join me for another round of bed sport?" She asked her red lips curved into a smile and slit yellow eyes gleaming, her nose buttoned and tiny ears pointed like an elves she was a beauty but behind that was disgusting beast.

" i will have to decline silla" he grummbled he only bedded her when he felt the urge unbareable and that urged had now passed "casting me aside again" she smirked running her talons along his jawline.
"Silla" he shighed voice cold and full of warning " every the frosty one- where is your king little bird?" Micheal hissed at her he loathed when she did that " where and what my lord does is no concern to reptile" she
Laughed leaning in and kissing his forehead "ok love i will behave however if prying will earn your wrath i will happily push" micheal shook his head grinning as annoying as she was she was a great worrior a known around Vandar's soilders well known "however returning home will be delightfully i miss my demons" she whined micheal wacthed her dress laceing up her corset and fixing her breast plate, pulling on her leather pants and laceing up her boots, "why do you refrain from you true form silla?" She snickered opening the flap of the tent and looking over her shoulder "i only show that to my favorite lovers micheal" she flashed her fangs before leaving  micheal got dressed annoyed and knowing that woman she had many.

Malena shot up gasping for air she groaned as tears came to her back stang "oh! Goodness darling!" A sweet voice exclaimed Malena looked up comeing face to face with a smiling old lady who eyed her with concern Malena stared at the old woman despit her aged face she was beautiful her eyes bright green and her gray hair was fixed into a neat bun. "Are you ok dear?" She asked touching her forehead testing for a fever Malena nodded smiling before panic started to set in where was Salam? Upon seeing her face she patted her head " do not fear dear your husband is safe" her face flushed at the old woman's words she shook her head furiously face burning "no-no hes not my husbad he-"  the old woman blinked before nodding "well lets get you changed then i wont as what you were both doing in the drains but i am glad you are safe" she smiled helped her to her feet and pulled her along into a other room the little cottage was comfortable and warm
The wooden floors creaked as they went up the staries the burning fire place blackened with uncleaned cinder "here we are" the old lady wisphered pushing the door infront of them open made of oak. A other bed greated them as did a small closet and a small rocking chair pushed in the corner, a well desgined window of the dragon crest sat in the window pane " look for something to change into while i heat up some water the water did wash away the stench but i think you would like to wash up porperly dear" malena nodded shyly a light blush upon her cheeks.
She opened the closet timidly and skimmed through the dresses each as small and fancy, she stopped at a lavsh red gown with a low cut neck line and off shoulder sleeves the needl work on it was devine and small jems sewed into the hems, it was breath taking "oh you have a good eye girly" the old lady said carrying a wooden bath of steaming water in her arms Malena blushed haveing been caught.
"You can wear it dear i have no children and it would suit you well although" she giggled as she helped her strip down "your bust will be abit overflowing in this gown but that will make young lads come running wont they?" She asked a michivios smirk on her face malena blushed before giggling also she already liked this woman.

Vandar smiled tapping the shivering girl's as the men brought the fighting old man into the town's square "Henla!" He shouted as he spotted his daughter in Vandar's arms, he smirked under his cloak the man did not know who he was yet throwing insults at "release my daugther swine!" He bellowed a full blown smile swept across face as he pulled  hood of his cloak, he wacthed as the old man's face paled and he fell to his feet bowing his fear unlike the wolves he could not smell fear but he could see it it like sickness it had a sickly pale colour a man could train his face to be emotionless around him however his aura could never be hiden from his eyes "My lord please forgive me and please i beg you spare my daughter" he begged shaking " do you know why your here?" He asked voice clam and clipped making everyone silent "no-no my lord" he answered Vandar caressesd his weeping daughters face she whimpered flinching away from his fingers good to know his legend still lives " scouts said that they spotted your cart on the main road of oxyen you allowed a man and a women into your cart however by the time you reached the main gate your cart was empty" he smiled coldly at him the man shook his head " my lord as was travelling back from from fox's bridge when i spotted them a man and a young woman they looked tired so i helped them the woman passed out as soon was we started to move the man said they were escaping from maria but before we got to the gate stopped me and left" he nodded he had underestimated the little solider
"How far did they stop from the wall?" He asked curious now the old man gleared at him angry " if i answer will you relase my daughter?" His eyes glazed over with rage, the man had spirt he had that. "If your information is accurate and relivant then yes i will however" he grinned as the girl yelped as he sank his fingers in her flesh "she must have bleed already now a full fleged woman it would be a great honour to give this little flower to my men gods knows they need a females touch" "no!" The old man shouted "they stopped in the east end of the gate and the only thing there is the filt holes no man alive would go down there lower level demons reside there" oh but the soilder would his grip tighted on the girl causing her to cry out in pain at the thought of his flower going through that filt, he whipped the girl's tears and let her go gently " and where does this hole start from? or more importantly whers is the nearst fresh body of water to it?"
