The Angelic Devil they called me,a devil with looks similar to an Angel with thick silver straight hair hanging up to my waist and eyes a mixture of violet,grey and blue.Attired in dark fighting gears and a cape of purest black with tendrils of crimson rising from the hem.I exactly looked like a devil straight from hell.

I've become a nightmare for so many,mothers warned their children about the monster who lured people with her looks and left corpse sucked dry in her wake.

I couldn't kill the girl and the failure of the king's champion soon reached the castle,which had led to this test,to walk into the street and unleash myself.So I had done exactly what I was told,luckily there were only rebels stirring up trouble and I did not think this time,I let the devil to the surface and from there everything was a blur of blood and  metal. There was only one thing in my mind and that was, as long as I was in the king's good graces he would leave Victoria alone.

Victoria.

My little sister.I still remember the day I was forced to freeze out all my emotions,to become the cold and hateful monster everyone feared and the face of an innocent eleven year old girl with bringht blue-green eyes
and dark hair,her face twisted with pain,tears streamed down her face
as the knife at her throat was pressed deeper drawing blood while I stood there helplessly,her pained eyes never leaving mine.That day had changed my life,extinguishing all hopes for a life that I could call Life wholeheartedly.

Even four years after the incident I still have nightmares,after which sleep completely abandoned me and to escape from the stress I plunged myself  into excessive training,my skills increased and I lived up to my reputation.

I walked past Diem,eager to get away from blood and death towards the huge castle that loomed over the town to meet the man who made me a husk of who I was before .The question still remains unanswered,who I was before all the bloodshed and misery ,perhaps I would find out someday or may be never.
