I could hear squeals and screams but above the noise was the sounds of laughter.i looked through the trees in to a opening,where a small shack lay half collapsed.all of a sudden the door launched off its hinges in to the woods then a man followed but he hit a tree ,he took a moment to breath but before he could catch his breath a tall shadow figure ,couched down though the door of the hut ,a black shadow of a man in cape but this was no man this was a horrifying monster with horns,this was death.he pulled he pulled his double sided synth off his back ,the synth a ring with a line down the middle to separate the two end of the synth,chains held on to the synth leading up to the two blade which one read in crows language and one in enocion but both saying the same thing "death "I whispered .the man who was trying to catch his breath finally stood up ,death just stood there and watched him "death please get your man to leave my wife and child alone " the man cried through breaths "mr grounden,I wish your family no harm because my man does" death said in his calm soothing voice, the man screamed and his whole body set ablaze "now mr groused no need to get so angry ,I will call off my man if you let me take the debt you owe." Death said in the most soothing voice "NO YOUR NOT TAKING MY NEW BORN SON!" Grounden screamed ,I could tell he was about to charge death but just before he could the screams stop and so did the fire on mister grounden,"what have you done?" He said at death ,death just smiled as a tall man walked out of the small shack with something human size dragging behind him and with something in his other hand .the figure moved in to the light,it was morrigan but something was different ,his armour was darker more detail to the symbol and a lot more symbols but as his face came in to the moon light,purple glowing cracks where  in his skin from his eyes to under his beard ,he had been tainted by death. I wasn't paying ation to the two things he was holding in till he threw the thing he was dragging behind him right in front of death "she's put up heavy resistance so I broke her resistance" morrigan said In a robotic tone.the thing he threw was a small fragile women who was wrinkled and old with grey hair ,her face stuck in a frozen state of horror ,he had absorbed her,her life ,grouden fell to his knee with tears down his cheek"here is the baby bearly alive from the snake" morrigan regraded death just nodded I couldn't bear this anymore I pulled out my revolver,clocked it and pulled the trigger in a single blink of an eye .the bullet flew through the gap between the trees and in to the side of morrigan skull but didn't go out ,the bullet exploded in a bright blue light as morrigan fell purple and white light burst out of his eyes and mouth and his skin flashed to reveal the bone and a black and white orb in this chest ,his soul ,it was consumed in darkness more than I have ever seen before.i ran out of the trees feeling my blood start to boil, my skin start to stretch and my bones growing .i was full of rage ,I thought my hands well claws where on fire,I reached death in a matter of micro seconds and swiped for him but he swung his double ended synth which missed but the darkness that followed didn't and sent me flying but I landed on my feet and paws which where on fire so I stood on my feet and launched fire balls right at death but he block as he walked towards me with walls made of shadows blocked all of the blazing balls of fire,I felt my blood rushing through my veins and my heart beat speed up as I pulled my sword out of its heath and sprit towards death I could hear my daughters screams of war it gave me more strength as I charged,as I got close to death he sent black shadows towards me but I just mowed them down as if they where nothing.as I reached death I could see him about to swing so I blocked it with my sword and shoved him with my shoulder and I swung again but as I did I saw black hammer flying towards me I caught it but it pushed me back a bit as it was thrown with a lot of force and I look at where morrigan should have been laying but he wasn't any more he was standing there with shock on his face " you where trying to kill me with my own work ha" I turn back to death about to take another swing but I blocked that with one hand and whipped out my revolver before the hammer hit the floor and blew a hole in to deaths chest which gave me a little space so I picked up the hammer and shouted "to thyn who is worthy shall cast the hammer of Odin" morrigan face dropped as the grey hammer craved and revealed a gold hammer with glowing green symbols ,I felt it's power flow through me,all my powers felt stronger.i swung for death but he still blocked all my attacks but this time I could see he was struggling,but that grim horrifying smile still haunted his face before I could react the sound of chain links clattering echoed in my ear,I already knew it was to late.his synth separated and while one side blocked the hammer the other side shined in the dark sicken sky,while it came down and burying in to the hammer,as he did so the glowing green symbols faded away and turn purple,I felt the hammer get heavier and it started to burn but the more I resisted the heavier it got and the more it burned I kept it in my hand but I started to relised that the hammer started to crack where I was holding it ,leaking white and green light like the hammer was trying to fight back the darkness,but there was cracks forming where the synth was dug in as the cracks neared each other I could see that death was trying to pull his syth out of the hammer but he couldn't and all of a sudden the the hammer exploded in to a bright green and black light .i flew in to a tree that hurt more than when death done it ,I looked around the hammer was gone but death wasn't,he wasn't holding his syth anymore probably because he doesn't have that arm anymore or half of his arm through the ripped sleeve and that's when I relised that My own arm was destroyed basically the flesh ripped and torn I could see the bone but what was wierd was the symbols that where on my bone they resembled the symbols on the hammer then my skin started to reattach it's self and rebuild when I looked up again death was standing tall in front of me  .i tried to stand and when I did heavy boney fist clobbered down on me ,after a few punch's my right arm felt numb,I lowerd my arms and the fist beat down on my face.everything started to go blurry and the trees multiplied then everything was on its side fading in to black but I felt the anger rush through my vain and I felt my self stand again this time I was taller than death but I wasn't in full wolf form not yet anyway I could feel my body was more stronger and more muscular so as death went in for an attack with his syth I grabbed it as it came down on me and stopped it,he struggled and I was getting sick of it to so I kicked him and he was sent flying in to a tree ,he fell off the he fell to one knee clenching his stomach with right hand .i stepped towards death As I  reached him I grab him by his spinal chord underneath his skull and lifted him in the air and said "any last words before you die" he just look at me and as I was about to thrust sword through his heart I heard it that all to familiar sound of chains but before I could react my left arm at the upper tricep had been have sliced off ,I backed off and looked at my arm and saw that he had nearly cut of my arm and the wound started to glow white as I tried to heal but before I could get my bearings the syth was in my upper thigh I look down the black space that was sunk in to my leg and what I knew was one of the only things that could kill me I look at death and growled at death and that sickly smile just got bigger and I instantly knew what would happen but no amount of preparation would prepare me for the pain of the syth going from my upper thigh to my knee cap,he stopped there as I collapsed ,the pain was horrible I couldn't move my right leg but I could feel it trying to heal and before I knew it death was standing over me and he had one of his Bonney feet on my chest " any last word Seth" as death said that I feel for my sword with my only working arm but I dropped it after deaths first attack ,I just watch as he lifted his syth I wasn't gonna give him the satisfaction of begging for my life because we both know I don't want to live anymore ,I had lost everything and my life means nothing to me so I want this but as I stared at him he said "it looks like someone as joined the party" I thought axil and Aires had came to fight at first I was relieved but then I was angry but it wasn't them,when I was thinking death had taken his foot off me and turn around when I sat up I relised it was much worst than just axil and Aires it was levy well a ghostly version of her self death had her by the throat as and in the air "she was trying to do what you couldn't Seth I guess failing at killing me runs in the family" as she said this levy started to seem less and less transparent in till she was back to her old self "i guess you where hiding in your dads sword thats why deathstrider couldn't fully consume him,well this was a fun family reunion but I only brought her back so you could watch me kill her and for good this time and as he said that he grabbed her wrist of the hand that had my sword and then I seen her grit her teeth and then a crunch and a scream.i heard a voice in my head "put me on Seth I can save her" the voice said I replied "no" I felt all my power rush through my body and before I knew it I had my vampire teeth sunk in to his boney neck ,I felt the darkness fill my mouth ,I also had my right arm through his chest but it didn't look like mine more like a werewolf but I knew it was me and then a white light holding my left arm together and grabbing his skull and then loads of black shadowy spike coming through this skull and through the cracks white light leaking through .all my powers at once it felt amazing and so does this power I'm drawing but before I relised I was sent flying away by a wall of darkness I saw that death was weakest I landed on in my feet .I was ready but then my body buckled and the pain flooded in I fell to one knee ,I needed to recover before he did but as I stood I was taken off my feet by levy and her golden wing I started to feel week as we rose above the trees.
