"Insolent kyvalso-morphs, they stole it from the Qurak't!" Cried a muffled voice in a collection of stars.
"What?" Questioned a second voice. Then a claw reached out from the abyss to grab them.
A girl bolted upright in her bed, panting from fear.
"What was that?" she said questioned herself, calming down in her bland bedroom. Her room was roughly a five by five meter attic room, with sloping ceiling towards the outskirts. She had a small bookcase used as a bedside table to he left. She glanced across the room and saw an empty bed with the pink quilt disturbed. A small hand touched her right side making her jump, but then she saw her little sister with her little blonde pigtails and freckly face looking up at her. She place her hand on her heart in relieved.
"Are you okay Evy?" Questioned the little girl.
"Yes," answered Evelyn she picked up the little girl and brought her into her bed giving her a great big hug "It was just a bad dream, ." She said pushing her face into her little sister's neck.
Evelyn got herself and her little sister ready for the day. Firstly, getting out of her crop top and bottoms and into some skinny jeans a cyan long sleeve top and a grey zip up jacket. She then, put her oak colour hair into a ponytail. She looked in the mirror, she was five foot four inches not the most feminine but was slightly better than average. Evelyn helped her sister into her school uniform, packed her lunch and walked her little sister to school. After that, Evelyn walked to the centre of the town. Although, the sun was out, there still was occasional white clouds that would block it and cool down the temperature. Where she met, infront of a church, two teenagers sat on the granite steps to the court yard.
The young lady stood up. She was an inch and a half possibly two taller than Evelyn. She was covered black skinny jeans, a denim jacket overlay a sky blue Hippocampus shirt and black camo boots covered her feet. Her face was like an upside down water drop shape, coming to a point at her chin. She had thin eyebrows that arched ever so slightly over her copper glazed eyes. Her hair had some waves and some strands that curled. The auburn hair reflected and brightened in the sunlight giving out an illusion of gold.
The two girls embraced and the young man got to his feet. He towered over both women, being six foot two. His eyes were a rare turquoise, with his hair being a solar red. His face was long and rectangular, clean shaven and his cheeks freckled. He wore a grey shirt with long black sleeves and a black shoulders. He had saw dust chinos and white trainers.
"Hey Evelyn," he said, "We were wondering whether you were going to show."
"Speak for yourself Connor," said the other girl giving him a stare.
"It was a joke Abi," Connor answered back, raising his hands as if he was about to be arrested. Evelyn let out a giggle, with her two friends looking like one was going to kill the other.
"Don't ever leave me with him!" Said Abi "or you might just have to bail me out of jail."
"Abi where are your glasses?" Asked Evelyn.
"My new prescription came. I've got contacts now, I know they are meant to hinder my sight but there is no difference as if I'm not wearing anything," she answered.
Evelyn, Abi and Connor moved along the town walking from end to end doubling back on them selves once or twice. They had some food from a fast food restaurant and spent the time chatting. As it started to darken, the group decided to make their way back to Abi's house where they had arranged to stay the night. Moving through an area of council owned houses people on the pavement became less and less common until.
"Okay so a real girl asked you out Connor?" Abi asked in disbelief to which Connor replied, "yes," smugly.
"Grrrrrr," the gargle sent shivers down everyone's spines. They turn to the origin of the noise and see a 40 year old man. The man was almost dead pale, he was obese. Shorts that were worn and torn covered his legs. He was shirtless and it was clearly visible the scars on his body. He had what looked like a collar made from muscle and a type of fungus. "Grrr... fresh blood for mistress... new bodies for mistress... more power for mistress..." he struggled saying under his terrible condition. The fat on his body began to shrink and muscle started to grow on the outside of his arms and torso. He rushed towards them pinning Connor to the ground and knocking Abi and Evelyn to the floor.
The two girls quickly got to their feet.
"Evelyn call for help!" Abi ordered, as she picked up an empty glass beer bottle from the floor. Evelyn pulled out her phone and started to call the police. Abi ran behind the monster of a man and hit him on the back of the head with the bottle. He turned left Connor on the ground and pinned Abi to the side of a house. Connor started to get up and saw Abi against the wall as the monster smashed a fist into her stomach. Connor's eye dash from Abi to the monster and a black scaled, dragon like form overtakes his body and punches the monster in the face and Abi falls to the floor. At this moment Evelyn comes back and tries to help Abi as the two men battle it out exchanging blows with each other, until Connor is knocked to the ground and he turns back. The monster now imposingly strides over to Evelyn, looks down at her and raises a fist. She hears the sound of sirens approaching. A surge of warmth and courage pulses through her body, she sees white light reflecting off his face...
