The night was dark, cold and lonely. The odor that was felt in the air did not turn out to be normal. The environment itself gave indications that something very bad was approaching, with accelerated strides.

The quiet streets of the village were only lit with lamps, that provided dim lightning for those who passed by. Night moths and insects seemed to be the only ones that were attracted by an elucidation that seemed most to be dead. Small clouds of fog hovered over the ground, managing to hide a small dog that wandered that late hour. His little head looked in several directions, searching for a place to lie down in an attempt to dry his wet fur from the humidity from the night.

On the ground, beneath his icy body, the shadow of something approachig him was drawn. Curious, he observed this phenomenon trying to find out what it was, at the same time he sniffed.
The one approaching him, carried and enormous amount of evil energy and black intentions. Without warning, a body fell from the sky and landed on top of the animal, resulting in its immediate death.

With the force of impact, the fragile creature's body shattered in several directions, leaving much of the ground covered with blood and bits of organs.

Delicate movements, full of beauty, wiped away the stains of blood that had dyed her clothes. It was the woman who had made such violent entry. Elegant silhouette, straight blonde hair, and and out-of-the-ordinary outfit, gave her a truly somber look. All her clothing was made of leather, showing itself fairly fair, adjusting to the curves of her enviable body. Her face could not be seen, it was protected by the darkness of the night, implying that she also wanted to protect her identity. Only her purple eyes were illuminating the incredible darkness that made up that scene.

Her head made a number of movements, causing her neck to crack. It had given her a delicious pleasure that traveled through her spine, scattering through out the body. On the bottom of her shoe, the creature remains had been left, leading her to a deep rage at the unexpected.

- Idiot dog! - She kicked what was left of the carcass.

She shook her shoulders and returned to the main mission, walking down the old village road. Her pace was slow and focused on what was around her, analyzing everything minutely as if she were looking for someone.

- I'll have to look for the target - she used her nose to sniff - He asked me to watch him while i was here. So i have to find that boy as fast as i can.

Her scent gave indications of being quite powerful, managing to feel and endless list of scents. Between them, she identified one that looked like a stew, coming from a house that was nearby.

Curious, she walked towards him, always in the shade, only seeing her purple eyes piercing the icy darkness of the night. As she approached sneakily out of the window of that smelling house, her nose felt and even more delicious scent, making her feel quite out of the ordinary.

Quickly she raced, dancing among the dim lights of the street lamps, reaching the blessing dwelling. Near the window she lowered herself cautiously, getting a broader view of what the interior would look like. Immediately, a young man seem to be sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading a book. It seemed to be quite interesting, give his composite expression, which made him completely disconnected from everything around him.

Feeling her purpose fullfilled, she smiles a completely malevolant smile from the corner of her mouth.

- I have found you...
