A shadowy figure emerged from the darkness in the old church. The moon was full and the night was young. The figure pulled back her hood to reveal her glistening white hair. As she stood on her perch of the church, a man walked by. She watched patiently as he turned the corner.

She ran the rooftops of the little town of  Sunkiss, chasing her victim into her shadows. Leading him into a dead end. She approached slowly toward him. Her red eyes burned into his soul.

"You know what I'm here for. May as well just give it up know." the girl whispered.

As if he stood no chance against the girl he dropped to his knees. She waved her hand in front of his face and 'pulled words' out of his head. She placed them in her little notebook. "On your feet."

The man stood with a look of confusion. "Where am I? Who are you?"

She gives a devilish smile. "I the one who saved you.. good evening sir. There is an inn down the street. Go there now. They will give you a place to sleep for tonight. "

And with that she made her exit, returning to the shadows of the church in which she dwells.
