~Greeley Valley, Iowa, Midnight~

A black robed figure ran down the street at an alarming rate. Her face and hair is hidden in the hood of her long hooded cape, with the exception of her glowing, yellow cat eyes. Long black claws glistened from the long bell-bottom sleeves of her black robe. Her DDD-Cup boobs bouncing slightly. A second later, a series of snapping and gnarling noises began to catch up with her. "Oh no," She whispered, turning a very sharp corner. Her bruised, scratched, bare feet slapped against the wet cement as she broke into a full out sprint. "Their gaining on me! I can't go back, father will be even more furious with me!"

Thunder rumbled overhead and Lightning flashed, causing the hooded girl to cover her ears. The creatures that were chasing her began hooting loudly as heavy rain began to pour from the sky. The girl cursed under her breath, reeling in her bat wings flat against her back. Her long, black as pitch tail slapped against the cement. Her tail was made of material that was stronger than diamond itself. Her tail also had cresent moon shaped blades that were evenly distributed on her tail. And lastly, she had three "fingers" on the end of her long tail. They were actualy blades, and could move like actual fingers, except they had poison and were as hard as the rest of it.

When she knocked over a gargoyle that dared to venture near her powerful tail, she knocked him flat on his ass with a abrupt slap of her tail. "That will teach it!" She cheered, mentally giving herself a pat on the back.

Before she realized it, she smacked into a really hard object, knocking out all the air in her lungs. She fell flat on her butt onto the slippery street. She looked up at what she ran into and cursed. It was a tall, bald, yellow skinned, one-eyed creature with teeth too big for its own mouth. He had a long robe that covered the majority of his body, with the exception of his hands, which were wrapped up in long, white bandages. "Serenity," his booming voice made her cringe. "Stop this foolish act and return with us at once. Your father wants you back immediately."

Serenity scoffed. "Well, Damodar, you're just going to have to kill me then. Cause there is no way on this entire earth that I'm going back!"

Damodar narrowed his eye at her. "We are under strict orders to bring you back, with or with out force. Your choice."

"Well," Serenity trailed off. "I choose…" Before any of the rest of the demons could realize it, Serenity's tail wrapped itself around Damodar's legs. With a mighty battle cry, she lifted him off the street as easily as she would a feather. Before the rest of the demons could even react, Serenity threw Damodar straight into them, knocking them all down. "Force."

The rest of her pursuers backed off a bit, knowing the full extent and power of her tail. Serenity took this to her advantage, quickly flinging herself into the air, and with a beautiful acrobatic flip, landed back on her feet. "Stop at once!" Damodar called, but Serenity was already gone.

~Morning, Jim's Coffee~

Serenity gasped for air as she sat down in one of the wet, hot metal seats outside Jim's Coffee shop. The heat of the chair had no effect on her. "Finally," she wheezed, making her wings and tail disappear as a group of humans came into eye range. "I lost them for good."

"Hello," a loud, feminine voice came from next to Serenity, making her jump out of her skin. "Welcome to Jim's Coffee, the best little coffee shop in all of Greeley Valley, how may I take your order? Coffee or juice?"

Serenity had to use all of her will power to NOT release her tail and stab the woman through the chest. Clutching her heart, she looked up at the women. The cloudy sky made it hard to see all of her features, but all Serenity saw was curly black hair and glasses. Her name tag read: 'Jennifer' in big black words. "Uh…" Serenity trailed off again. "What's 'Coffee'?"

Jennifer gave Serenity a funny look. "Do you want juice?" Serenity, not knowing what in the world that was, nodded absentmindedly. Jennifer gave her an awkward smile, disappearing through two see-through doors just as a group of teenagers sat down at the table right next to hers.

The group consisted of two males and two females. Both boys were muscular with wide shoulders. One had short, spiky sandy-blonde hair with a black leather jacket and blue jeans. The other had long black hair that was shaggy, sunglasses, a zip up hoodie with a plain white shirt and blue jeans.

As for the girls, one of them had long red hair tied back in a sloppy ponytail, a pink t-shirt that said "World's best kisser", no real chest to speak of, and blue short shorts. The final girl had black hair that covered the left side of her face, black hoodie, black jeans, and black shoes.

Serenity then noticed that the Goth girl was staring straight at her, sizing her up, trying to find her eyes. Serenity made eye contact with her, purposely making her eyes glow yellow. The girl gasped, quickly averting her gaze away from Serenity.

"Isss there sssomething wrong," the blond one asked, concern hidden deeply in his voice.

The Goth girl shook her head, trying not to turn her attention to Serenity, who was still watching her. "Don't worry about it, Troy. It's nothing." Troy nodded, not fully convinced by her answer. "Besides, I think I found something."

"And what would that be," Samantha asked, examining her newly red painted nails. "And it had better be good this time! Cause last time you thought you found someplace haunted, Artemis, it ended up being a fake!"

Artemis shook her head. "No. I think we may have found something here! I heard it from the gas station guy about it!"

"Your juice, ma'am," Jennifer said sarcastically, making Serenity jump again. Jennifer set the juice box on the table, walking away. Serenity glared after Jennifer, resisting the erg to kill her.

Artemis leaned closer to her comrades as more people began to fill the place. "A haunted Carnival!" Her three companions stared at her for a second, snickered, and began to laugh uncontrollably. "What?!" Artemis inquired, turning towards the brown headed boy. "What's so funny?!"

"A-A haunted c-carnival?!" Ridley, the black shaggy haired boy, barely managed to breathe out as more laughs escaped him. "Your s-serious, r-right?!"

Artemis gritted her teeth, her right eye twitched. "Hey! A least it wasn't a "haunted" SUV like last time!" Her three companions choked on their own laughter, realizing that she made a really good point. When Artemis was sure that they wouldn't laugh, she continued. "And get this, he also told me this. "When the moon is full and trees are bare, walk through the cemetery if you dare. Where skeletons rot and corpses fester, locate a tomb with the skull of a jester. Feed him the token all shiny and new, it is then that CarnEvil will return for you!" She made sure to exaggerate on the 'you' part.

Serenity raised her eyebrow, though you couldn't tell because you couldn't see her face through her cloak. A haunted carnival, she pondered, penetrating the juice box with her claws, causing a loud 'pop' sound. Serenity ignored it, allowing the liquid to splash every where. Troy turned around in his seat at the sound, looking at Serenity. Serenity wanted to slap him when she realized that he was actually staring at her chest. Since he couldn't tell if she was looking or not, Serenity cleared her throat. Troy blushed, turning away. Just to mess with them, Serenity turned her head towards the frightened group of teenagers. "You said a haunted carnival, right?" She asked, scooting her chair right in between Troy and Ridley. Serenity sneered when she saw the two boys turn red as tomatoes and the two girls give her nasty death glares.

Artemis looked at Serenity, trying to catch a glimpse of her face, but her face was hidden in darkness and the cloudy sky didn't help at all. "Yes. You know something about it?"

Serenity shook her head. "Nope. I was just curious. And in that riddle, it said, "when the moon is full", right?" When none of them gave her an answer, Serenity continued. "Well, in exactly two weeks from now, it is going to be a full moon." She could feel the group's gaze on her, demanding more information. "So, if you're going there to see an actual haunted place or something, I would wait until then. Are you guys some kind of ghost hunters or something?"

Samantha, when she finally had control over her mouth, spoke up. "Yes. We vanquish evil, as well as monsters that step out of line and bring peace to the earth."

"Is it your job?"

"No. Our destiny."

Serenity resisted the erg to burst out laughing. Finally, Ridley mustered the courage to ask, "What's your name?"

"If I tell you, then I'd have to kill you," Serenity said plainly, getting up from her seat. Just as she was about to say something else, in the corner of her vision, she saw a gargoyle fly over head. Shit, they found me already, Serenity glanced back at the four, giving them a small wave. "This was a nice chat and all, but I have to get going."

"Will we ever see you again?" Ridley asked, sounding pretty pathetic.

Serenity shrugged. "Maybe." Before they could ask her anything else, Serenity was gone.

Troy leaned over to Ridley, whispering in his ear. "Ssshe wasss really hot, even though we couldn't ssssee her faccce." Ridley nodded in agreement. The two girls cleared their throats loudly. Both boys turned back to them. "Sssorry." Troy apologized, scratching the back of his head.

"Wait," Jennifer called, running out of the coffee shop, out of breath.

"What is it?" Artemis asked, raising her right eyebrow. The other three turned to Jennifer, resisting the erg to tell her that she is really late.

"That girl left without paying for her juice!" Jennifer shouted, still looking around for the mysterious girl.

The four anime fainted.
