Men. The plague that runs the earth and all the planets around it. They are evil, corrupted, untamable. And I was born for one purpose only: to wash the planet with their blood.I'm looking at New York City. The city of lights.I'm wearing my golden armor that gifted to me by my people and blessed by Athena - The Goddess herself. The armor gives me strength, let me fly, and makes me invulnerable. I'm also fast and got crazy reflexes.My people trained me since I was four. And when I turned eighteen, my people gave me one mission to prove myself or I shall never return to them: Kill That Demon Dean.

And finding him wasn't so easy, not till I got to New York City. I'm making my way into a bar. The night skies are dark, as if the starts are hiding in fear. I don't fear anything. Amigo walks by my side. Amigo is a white lion, very rare of his breed.He's been there for me since I was young. And he's been blessed by the gods to be immortal, and strong as a he always was.As I'm about to walk in, wearing my armor, I get stopped by the guard at the entrance. A man. "Your dog have to stay outside." He says. I nod, turning my look to Amigo. He growled at the man, unhappy with the insult. "He'll stay outside." I said. But he still blocked my way. "Look, this isn't a nerd convention." He said, looking at me, scanning me from head to toe. "Good, because I'm not going to one." I said in anger.He smirked. "Suit yourself." He said while I walked in. Amigo stayed outside. Sitting and waiting, while having a staring content with the guard. Inside, I find myself in a very old-fashioned bar, as if it was taken out of a cowboys movie. Yes, I'm quite invested in Humans. I need to be ready for anything.

Suddenly I stopped. I've turned my look to a table with a few young people sitting there. There sas a blonde haired gal with green eyes. Wearing a dark green dress and high heels. She was holding a glass of wine, and laughed while looking at another girl. Who has a blue long, long hair. I only see her from behind, but she smells... like a fish.And then I see him. My Prey. The demon. I'm ready to take my sword out, but then I see him joking with the rest. Acting as if he's completely human. Now is not the right time. I should lore him outside. Mentally contacting Amigo, I'm setting up a trap. Amigo starts to cry and howl outside, as if he's been hurt. I hurry to the table where the trio sits at, without a breath."You guys are the Power Inc kids right?" I asked. They looked at each other and then back at me, as if I fell from the skies. "Who are you?" The blue haired girl asked. "I'm Athena." I said, and Amigos cry was finally heard. "What was that?" The Blonde girl said, she seemed in pain. "My..eh...dog. he's hurt, and you've got Nature powers, right? Can't you help?" I've asked.

"What are you talking about?" She asked. Dean stayed quiet. "I know who you guys are. Now please, can you help me?" I asked with fake tears coming down my eyes. They looked at each other then got up and followed me outside. As soon as we got outside, Amigo got silence."Is he ok, Sky?" Dean asked the blonde girl. "He seems to be ok." She said. She tried to get closer, but Amigo growled at her. "If you want us to help your dog, he will need to calm down." Aqua said."Amigo is not a dog." I said, raising my hand and reaching for my sword on my back, and taking the shield off the belt. "Who are you?" Sky asked, confused. "My name is Athena..." I said, and instantly turned around. "And I'm here to slap Dean!" I said, as I jumped and attacked with my sword. They all dodged, rolling away.I kept chasing him, ignoring the girls. Dean seemed to dodge all of my attacks. "You are good, but not good enough." I said. "What do you want from me?" He asked, he seemed angry. So was I. "To rid the world of men like you!" I screamed, and stabbed him on the shoulder. Dean groaned in pain. He was bleeding pretty badly.

My red hair was all messed up, and I was even sweating abit. I almost got him. He's mine. I swinged my sword again, and heard Sky screaming for Dean to move out of the way. He did, and Amigo now ran towards Sky, jumping on her from behind and biting her shoulder. He has a very venomous bite. Sky fell to the ground. I tried to stab Dean again, but he dodged and rushed to Sky. "Leave her alone!" Dean screamed. Aqua summoned a wave and pushed me away. I put my shield against it and was able to stop it."Please, let her go!" Tears went down on Dean's face. I stopped fighting as I saw this. Aqua stopped too, rushing to them. "Amigo, let go." I said. And so he did. Releasing Sky from his venomous teeth. "Sky..." Dean mumbled, as he held her in his arms. I walked towards them. Aqua was ready to attack me, but I stopped her. "I'm done fighting." I said, and threw my shield and sword on the ground.


I turned to my belt and took a little bottle off of it. I sit on my knees close to Sky and pour it through her mouth. The bite seems to heal fast. Sky is waking up. Dean hugged her closely. As if he had a moment of realization that he almost lost everything he loves in his life.I looked at them for abit, then got up and went to pick up my weapons, attaching them back to my armor. "Where are you going?" Aqua asked in anger. I stopped walking, and Amigo stopped next to me. "I don't know. I didn't complete my mission." I said. Dean and Aqua looked at each other. "Athena..." Sky mumbled. I turned to her. "Why...why did you attack Dean?" She asked. I sighed. "My mission was to slay the demon. But the demon might just be human after all." I said. They all looked at each other, then at me, as I turned around and walked away with Amigo by my side. I can't go home, I can't be seen, where do I belong now?
