My father always had me keep a hunters knife stowed away in my dresser drawer in case I got into a situation like this one. I also got really into boxing with Bella when I was human, a lot of people in both of my worlds would see me as weak, but they don't know how strong I really am. I felt pretty confident I could get away from these two demons.
I decide the time is now. I speedily drop the necklace, swim to my dresser and have the knife in my hand in mere seconds. The Diru decide to strike as well. One lunges for my throat, I duck and slice his arm with the knife. He makes the most horrible ear-splitting sound I have ever heard. He then curls back and tends to the wound that is spilling purplish liquid into the water.
The second Diru grabs me from behind, I jab him as hard as I can with my elbo to free myself. Then turning around I slice at whatever I can. He speedily swims at me and scrapes my arm that is holding the knife with his claws. I let out a blood curling scream and drop the knife. I put pressure on my bleeding arm to help stop the blood.
Both Diru take advantage of this and grab me. One around my tail, the other finishing what he had wanted to to. Grabbing me by the throat he squeezes. I scrape and pull at the claws around my throat but he squeezes harder and harder. Finally I'm to the point where I can't fight it.
The last thing I see are the Diru's red eyes staring into me before it goes black.
