I am sitting here looking at my next victim. But before I go into detail on what I am doing I am going to tell you who I am. I am Wolfrick Warwolf. I am the son of Hades and the nephew of Anubis. And as of lately I have a new job as the Wolf Fang Rider. Also known as the bounty hunter of the ever famous Count Drewel, leader of the vampire kingdom. I first got this job 100 years ago when I killed the original Wolf Fang Rider named Scar. We got into a duel to the death in the end I drove his sword through his skull. When I went to release his sword, my hand was stuck to the pommel of his sword. That was when a circle of men came around me and started chanting this magic spell. "Let his fire bring darkness to day and light to night.Let his fire bring darkness to light and light to darkness. And let all those who are evil fear his flame."
Then from the eye holes of the previously burning skull came two snakes that wrapped around the sword all the way to the top were my hand was and then they bared their fangs and bit me! That was when I felt their venom start to course through my veins and I started to change. I started to feel hot and as each moment passed I felt hotter and hotter and then I burst into flames! These flames were different from any I had ever seen... these flames were black as night. When I was fully transformed I saw what I thought was the most beautiful creature I have ever seen then in a burst of purple flame in the place where the beautiful girl was standing there was now a purple flaming arc angle.
As my senses became clearer, I saw a man standing next to her. He was a tall slender man with dark features and dressed in a red lined cape. He started to speak and his voice had a low and calming tone to it....almost mesmerizing! He introduced himself as Count Drewel.
As our eyes met, she looked back at him and introduced herself, " I am the Dark Angel, but you can just call me Angel for short" I then introduced myself.
I was about to ask what had happened to me but I was cut off by the Count. "You are now under the employment of Count Drewel, as my bounty hunter."
"What? I did not sign up to work for anyone!"
"You didn't have to, you were chosen for this job when you were just a boy by the Vampires of the Black flame."
"What do you mean I was CHOSEN?"
"With you being the son of Hades and your mother being the Egyptian queen Anocsonimon as well as your uncle being Anubis, it was destiny that you would be brought up with many powers and abilities that meremortal men could never have. So you were chosen and have been trained since you were a child." The count's eyes began to glow as if they were small crystal balls filled with fire!
I then started thinking back to wrestling with Hell Hounds as a small boy and how normal I thought that was. I thought of the heat when I was growing up and how I was never cold and I never questioned why. I remembered playing in the pyramids with my uncle Anubis and how beautiful my mother was. Then things started coming together in my head and I started believing what Count Drewel was telling me! As my memories struggled to get through to clear thoughts, I became angry....very angry! I could feel the blood running through me like it was on fire but it was a comforting feeling to me.
I remembered my mother being killed right in front of me and the creature's that tortured her and took her from me and no one could stop them. I had to find out who did this to her as well as what had been done to me and I needed revenge for all the pain they had caused but right then, the Count spoke and his words directed my attention and anger back to him and his commands. I was under his spell, guidance and wishes but it felt right for me.
Count Drewel began speaking: "There are natural enemies as well as vampires that have turned against their own kind and your job will be to find these beasts, take their souls and destroy them! The Dark Angel will be your companion to accomplish these tasks. I also have another helper for you that can only be used by you and you alone." The count then opened his hand and there was a small, marble sized stone in his hand but it began to pulsate faster and faster and the colors began to change and then it started to slowly grow! The Count grabbed my arm and bit me just enough to draw a small drop of blood that he squeezed out of my arm and into the palm of his hand over the rock. As soon as the blood hit the stone, it began to spark and grow even faster! Within just a few seconds the count handed me a sword....The Black Flame Sword! The count then opened his hand again and there was another stone in his hand and he repeated the procedure but only with the Dark Angel's blood and again, the count handed her a sword....The Purple Flame Sword!
As soon as we held the sword's in our hands, they seemed to grab a hold of us and became part of us....we were one! Not only did they feel like an extension of our hands but it empowered us...it made us strong and unstoppable!
However that was not the end of the stones....they were still in the count's hand and they again started to grow and grow and they took on different shapes and colors. The one that took my blood stopped at black and the stone started to break into pieces that grew to look like the bones of a large reptile with wings. The one that took Angel's Blood did the same thing only with a smaller and leaner body and purple flames. That was when it hit me that these creatures that were forming in front of us were dragons that would either be friendly pets or the first and last thing I would kill for the count.
