Prologue
A heavy, forbidding silence hung in the air and the pale crescent moon was not visible due to the thick canopy of trees overhead. It seemed as if the entire forest was holding its breath as the two winged figures stood facing one another in a small grassy clearing. The taller of the two started pacing, but stopped as abruptly as she had started. She emitted a dark laugh and proceeded to pull a bloody dagger from the pocket of her black hoodie.
"I'll give you to the count of three to tell me where he is…" She paused, twirling the dagger on her fingers and smiled slightly at the other girl. "Or I'll send your ass to the depths of hell"
The other girl just laughed and shifted her weight slightly from foot to foot as she held the gaze of the taller girl.
"Don't worry you'll be reunited with that piece of scum in no time." She spat, smiling with satisfaction as the taller girl stood staring at her with a mixture of shock and horror.
The taller girl emitted a small strangled gasp as the true meaning of the other girl words sunk in. The small cocky smile that had been playing across her lips vanished, as if the other girl had slapped her. She clenched her fists to keep from lunging.
"W-WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM!?" She said half screaming, half growling as she stepped aggressively towards the other girl.
The other girl laughed again in response and closed the distance between herself and the taller girl, until the tips of their noses where inches away from touching. she smiled slightly, her clear sliver eyes mocking the taller girl.
"Let's just say...I helped rid the world of a worthless evil." She whispered, in a voice softer then the autumn breeze swirling around them.
The taller girl took a step back and howled in anger and despair. she spread her ebony wings to their full length and slowly raised the bloody dagger that she had been holding limply in her right hand...then with a scream of pure rage, she lunged.
