Chapter One: Innocent Devil

The moon was white and pale in the black velvet sky as the city came to life unaffected by the heat that still lingered from the suns unrelenting blaze.

People moved and music bounded which gave the city its very own heart beat. The people changed as the night fell, bringing them promise of darkness and pleasure, the life that seemed out of reach and childish when the sun watched them through the day.

Though behind the curtain of decadents and pleasure laid something darker that would strike fear into any well minded human, Lin was not that kind of human, in fact she was as far off as a human could get without being called a creature, she lived in the darkness her skin needed and craved for it because it was her ability to be free that set her body on fire even as the sun died.

Her life was nonexistent when the suns watchful eye settled on the people in the city, her life was all for the hunt and the capture, the feel of the creatures death cursing through her like a drug, the rush of something dark as the beast fell to the floor, their last curdled screams like beautiful poetic music.

These animals that dwelled in the darkness, only ever showing their face when the moon was high and the sins of the city came to life. Vampires, Shifters, demons of all kinds lived in the city of Brisbane, though to those of their own kind and anyone with an open mind would see that they weren't evil, in fact like every living being, they were trying to survive to live and be allowed to live, though with Lin on the hunt killing them off, one by one it seemed to be turning into more of a nightmare then a dream.

As Lin walked through the city unnoticed by the other humans crowding the streets she could smell the fear of the creatures that hid behind the blanket of shadows, her long red hair and pale skin and face gave her the look of an innocent child, until you looked into her pure green and odd eyes staring out into the darkness like a warning and a challenge. Her long black coat snug at her hips and flapped in the light night air that flowed through the streets and wrapped around her like a lovers welcome. Her red sleeveless shirt tight on her body showing her curves in a sensual way, black tight pants falling down her hips and settling at the tops of her boots like a silk sheet, a black simple belt looped around her waist.

Lin, the innocent devil, her title given to her by the fearful creatures of the darkness, they say then when she claims her victim she laughs like an innocent child as her green eyes bore through the creatures very soul stealing their last breath.

And thus the 'Innocent devil' took chase to another frantic victim, the poor boys eyes filled with fear as he stumbled over his own feet, his breath shaky as he clumsily ran for his life like a pathetic rat caught in the act of stealing crumbs. "Come on boy" The firry red head called "No use running, either way I'm going to run your belly threw with my blade, it's truly useless" But the boy didn't listen as he continued to run. Other humans took no notice of the hunter and the hunted, she flowed like a feather keeping an eye on the beast, though when the animal looked back she was gone. She had slipped down an alleyway, running and weaving gracefully around the obstacles that got in her way.

She got to the end of the path and took a sharp left, cutting the shifter off at the corner, her green eyes widening while pleasure as the smell of fear washed over her, sending her nerves a light. "You, have been playing had to get" Lin said almost breathlessly. "Why are you doing this? We just want to be left alone, we haven't done anything to you" The shifters human form was young man, slender, pale and blonde, blue eyes stared up at her, full of cold hatred and fear. He was wearing a simple white dress shirt and black slakes. "Because it pleases me" a low dark chuckled emerging from her throat as she began to walk closer to the scared child searching franticly for a way to escape.

"Don't worry boy you will feel the fires of hell soon enough" She said softly, as though trying to sooth the young man in her own twisted way. "Please" the boy begged a scared yet confused look on his face "Why do this? I don't understand why you must hunt my kind"

"It's very simple really, my Master has this of me, shone me that you and yours are just stains on the back of the strong human rase, all you little demons do is whisper into our ears promising us beautiful lies and the poor souls who listen are never to return but I am here to recterfy this, to fix what your kind has broken, to kill each and every one of you to show that evil will not stand" And with that a sickening crack echoed through the ally as Lin stabbed the poor confused boy ripping the knife upwards breaking bone and muscle as she did so, the boy tried to scream but the evil woman covered his mouth with her hand, blood gushing out as his life was slowly lost.

"Now I have to clean up"Lin said in a child like sulk as she pulled a larger knife from a sheath settled on her back, bring the blade down quick and hard a sweet though sickening to anyone else's ears snap flowed over Lin, shivers running down her back as she began to cut the body of the shifter to make easier to depose of.

Hours later Lin's hands and both her knives were covered in blood, her green eyes shining with joy as she saw the bloody mess she had made of herself. Going back through the alleyway she had run down Lin stopped at a tap and washed her hands and knives.

The 'Innocent Devil' had taken another life as she laughed child like while she walked away from the bloody scene "My message is now sent, come and fight me if you dare 'Tainted Angel'" she said to the empty ally way walking back into the lively streets as if nothing happened. The other people still paid no mind to the gruesome murderer of a creature who had just wanted to live.
