As Gia Nightwell walked through the night streets of Dublin she had only two thoughts on her mind, where the hell that raum demon was and whether or not Brendan had gotten himself killed yet.
Suddenly she was hit with a powerful stench that provided the answer to her first question.
She pressed herself up against the building next to her and peered around the corner into the alley next to her. Through the darkness she could make out the unmistakable features of the demon. Silently she reached into her gear and pulled out a seraph blade. "Azrael" she whispered and watched as the tube elongated and lit up into the sword. Slowly she crouched down and began to move towards the demon. She closed in on it and lifted her blade preparing to make the killing blow when out of the sky a brief flash of light shot by and then the demon was on the ground.
She jumped then looked at the demon and ripped the arrow out of its throat. Goddammit, she thought upon noticing the arrow head was made of shining adamas. "Brendan get out here!" she screamed and just then she heard the scuffle of boots and a figure appeared at her side.
"I win." Said the Brendan, he pulled down the hood of his gear then plucked the arrow out of her hand and inserting it back into the quiver on his back. He grinned at Gia before saying "You called?"
"Damn it Brendan, I had it." The girl responded glaring at her parabatai.
"No, you almost had it but I killed it." He said grinning matter of factly. "In fact you should be complimenting me on my archery skills, I mean could you land a shot as good as that from the top of that building?" He questioned gesturing to the store across the street.
"You know what…" she said angrily. Brendan was always good at archery but when it came to knife throwing he would be lucky to hit the target unlike Gia who excelled at it.
Brendan quickly smirked before taking on a serious look. "That is the fourth one this week." He noted staring at the as that was once a demon. "I wonder what's getting them so active lately?"
"I don't know but we should definitely report it to my dad." Gia replied.
Her father Marcus Nightwell ran the institute along with her mother. Gia's parents were really good friends with Brendans parents so when they died Gia's family took him in. His parents died seven years ago when Sebastian Morgenstern attacked the institute he was living in, Brendan was luckily not in the institute at the time so he was able to avoid the attack. However when he arrived back at the institute to see the carnage that awaited him the image was implanted in his brain and has stayed there to this day.
Two years after coming to live at the Dublin Institute Brendan and Gia had become parabatai.
Once the two fourteen year olds arrived back at the institute they informed the Nightwells of their worries. They didn't look as shocked or confused as they would have liked but instead they just said how it's normal for these demons to be around.
Marcus Nightwell then went on to say "There will be a new child coming to the institute tomorrow, she is about your age and she just got out of the Academy in Alicante so be nice when you meet her." He looked at Brendan when he said that last part.
The teen put on a mock hurt expression and responded "Why, I am the nicest person I know and I can't believe that you would accuse me of being rude or obnoxious to anyone."
Gia who was sitting next to him started to laugh knowing that Brendans ego tended to make him a bit of an asshole at times.
"I'm serious Brendan, I don't want to here about you being rude to her in any way. Am I clear?" Marcus said in a stern voice.
"Crystal" He responded before declaring that he was hungry and went with Gia into the kitchen.
"Brendan, you are going to play nice tomorrow won't you?" Gia said watching Brendan make a couple sandwiches.
'Of course, I don't know why you people think I am so rude. I mean when am I ever obnoxious? "
Gia gave him an incredulous look before grabbing one of his sandwitches and exiting the kitchen. She sighed pitying the girl that will have to be stuck with Brendan.
