Stone walked through the chilling down poor of Seattle's latest rainfall, wishing he'd taken Bairds advice and brought a poncho. His current mission seemed simple enough find the carnivorous Water Sprites and send them back to Black Lake where they belonged. The one glitch being that Seattle was bursting with thousands of Water Sprites and only a handful had turned carnivore. So here he was day four of being soaked, soggy, and chilled without even a hint of evil Sprite.
" Cursed Sprites, why couldn't it be something more me like a bar fight " Stone mutters to himself
Stone stops turning toward the darkened alley where rustling sounds had caught his attention.
"Probably just dogs." Stone thought to himself.
As he turned to walk away he heard the unmistakable sounds of muffled screaming. Racing full speed into the alley ahead of him Stone came face to face with the Sprites he'd been searching for as well as what would've been their latest meal. Two almost identical redheads were pinned beneath the five inhuman creatures, one had been paralyzed by fear tears streaming down the young girl's face, while the other was doggedly attempting to free herself by wildly thrashing about with a piece of broken bottle in her hand. Both girls locked eyes with Stone one a colbalt blue desperately seeking help the other a defiant emerald green with fire burning within them. In that moment Stone knew that even after saving these girls and banishing the Sprites; there would be no turning back. Stone and both girls fates were woven together; and Stone was not happy about his realization.
