If you had been there on that cold snowy night. a night that changed this lonely life forever. (Have you ever had to scarifice something to better yourself?)
''you'll catch your death if you remain out here'' a women's words aimed at a man laying in the snow just outside a mansion of a house located north of Psion. with on answer his eyes stayed locked at the heavens above. "at least put a jacket on'' her hair blowing in the wind as she approaches the dead silent man.
"you should go back inside" breaking his concentrated silence. noticing her approach he turns and says "i love how your dressing gown dances in the snow with the slightest glimmers of light always showing your true beauty".
"And why should you get to have all the fun, my love" she says sitting across his lap. it is 15 mins to the stroke of midnight, not a soul should be out on that christmas eve.
"your eyes, are like a spell piercing my being. not even your beauty can distract me from whats to come" he says brushing her off. she pauses to herself "…whats to come …?" as she goes to stand she realizes the couple are surrounded by 50 mysterious shadowy figures.
a sinister laughter howls out amongst the shadow.
" looks like the hounds are out" she says.
"KATRINA, i won't tell you again" the silence lost, but now a demanding power found "GO BACK INSDIE, NOW!"
caressing his face with her finger gently being calm and reasonable she says "just because I'm your bitch, don't think you can ever talk to me like one, Elijah"
he can't help but fall victim to her fiery eyes. but still agues "i MUST protect you"
"you cannot protect what is not yours" a man with blood red eyes steps from the shadows " you've taken something from me" he says with cold eyes fixed upon Katrina " my dear, shall we be going. come now lets not make his death any worst then it needs to be"
"that taunting smile" she thinks "it still makes me sick!"
a flying arrow volts out of the shadows towards the couple in the snow, narrowly missing both Elijah and Katerina.
50 bow and arrows are aimed at the couple, each carrying an additional 20 arrows.
"they are carrying over a 1,000 arrows between them Katerina. I NEED YOU TO GET INSIDE, so you'll be safe" Elijah stresses.
"you cannot protect me all the time, if you truly wish to save me you will show me how to protect myself. is that not how your master taught you?" she says smiling.
"let us go Katerina!…. return home to our child…" the blood eyed man says as he aims his arrow at Elijah's head.
"…a child" hearing this for the first time, Elijah ponders to himself "how much do i really know you… Katerina"
"do not let him doubt what you know of me Elijah! " "he speaks of a made up fantasy he believes true" "i am your women and you my man"
Elijah breathes deep takes one more glance up at the heavens, "you're right! … in order to save you, you must protect yourself!" he says with such disappointment.
they all turn to Elijah. the mysterious blood eyed man grins "the loner has come to his senses"
"Elijah no…." a soft cold tear runs down Katerina's face.
"so be it!" Elijah says "we shall fight together!! i shall be the one who teaches you to protect yourself!"
"as good a marksman i may be i can't guarantee you won't be caught if you stand there" he says slowly walking towards the couple.
"Then i die, and you don't get what you want"
