That horrible creature emerged from the sludge and slime from which it was spawned from. I watched it as it crawled out gasping for life, life that it took freely and without mercy. I saw it take form, that of an old wrinked up creature, maybe it could be human, maybe. I know it is her, I know I must kill her, it is my sworn duty, and my life's quest to do so. She killed my brother, and for that she must pay with her own wretched life.
I am Maeve, the 107th demon hunter of my clan. I am 20 years old, and the last one of my clan. I was born with this birthright not by choice, but I have no other choice but to obey it. Only the women in my clan are demon hunters, and one by one I watched the evil take over the land, and kill them, slaughter them off slowly, until I was left. I cannot bear children until my 21th year. To do so is to relinquish my powers, and I will not let that thing have that joy, not after what she did to him, Dermott. I will kill that wretched being. I will kill you Rumina.
My grandmother and mother faced Rumina ages ago, one the same moon as this, as the same conditions, they failed, and so she took their lives slowly and Dermott's. Now she has returned and now I will kill her, I will finish what they started, I will end it.
I see her being greeted by her minions. I draw back into the dark cloak of night. She orders them to take her somewhere. She has until the next full moon. She is weak and pathetically vulnerable now. I can take her. I follow her decaying body through the foilage of the dark forest.
She must find him, a male to drink his pure blood. She needs to find him before the next moon, so she may live. She will drain the life and essence out of him so she may live. But I won't let it happen. She needs his blood, the blood of a virgin in his 21st year. She will never find him. She will die by the next moon.
to me
My body reacts, as a body stands before me.
"My brother is dead" I hiss
"I've missed you"
"My brother died years ago. You are just a demon parading in his body"
"Is that any way to talk to family?"
"Get out of my way!"
But he won't, he stands there protecting that damn creature. I raise my blade and strike. I pray for the strength to finish it.
I feel a force wrap around my neck. His eyes pierce mine.
"Big brother knows best" He throws me across with a force like no other. I feel the warm blood spit out.
"My brother is dead"
"Soon my sister will as well" he hoovers over me
"You can join her!" I let the fury inside me release in the form of a fireball that explodes, blowing the cave into tiny bits. It's raining small pebbles now...by the gods...I cannot die, not yet, I have to finish this. I am the last one.
