Black Roses and Silver Blades

Prologue
"Faster! Or he'll kill us!" yelled a voice in the dark woods. Two figures, a girl and a boy, both clad in black, raced through the trees and brush, dodging limbs and undergrowth in the night. A black shadow raced behind them, hot on their heels.
"Shit!" yelled the boy as he stopped. He dashed to the side, while grabbing onto the girl's wrist. Running to a tree, he just about shoved her up it. He climbed up after her and peered out through the dark limbs at the dark shadow that had stopped a few feet away. A silver sword tipped with wood flashed in the moonlight. The boy narrowed his violet eyes and almost hissed out loud, but he caught himself. The dark figure below scanned the ground for signs of its prey. Seeing none, he cursed and walked away.
The violet-eyed boy smirked as he leaped out of the tree and stared after the shadow.
"Stupid human…" he sneered.
