She had been chasing him for what seemed like days and he was just sick of it. Lava turned to face the tiny woman who had been making his last few days' hell. She was not letting up and he knew she was eventually going to kill him if he so much as slipped up for a second.
"What do you want with me woman? I left most of those villagers alone. I only killed the ones who attacked me first. I took what I needed then left." Lava yelled at her from across the field.
"My name is not woman, it's Miyu and your kind running free is not allowed. I am the guardian and I am here to send you back to the dark realm. Your kind does not belong with humans. No more talk return to the darkness or die by my hands." She said almost in a whisper as she yet again began to advance on him.
He had been to this dark realm she spoke of and he had no intentions of ever going back. The creatures that were trapped there were more sinister then anything anyone could have imagined.
He decided he had to fight her here and now. He would at least put up a fight she would never forget. He got into his battle stance and shed his cloak.
He was very good looking for a demon. He had short hair but the silver shine was catching the moonlight in almost a hypnotizing fashion. He was tall about six foot two. His eyes though red held a warmth to them but was lost in a burning flame when his life was on the line. His body was finely cut after years and years of constant battles with humans and demons alike.
Miyu also prepared for battle. She was shorter then Lava but tall for a woman. She was about five foot eight. She had long brown hair that flowed with the winds. Her eyes were a piercing blue, like the ocean bottom. If she wasn't trying to kill him he would find her almost mesmerizing.
Miyu shed the short silken kimono she wore and magically donned a beautiful white kimono. Her body was unusually tan for a vampire. Her body also was tone from what he assumed was years of fighting demons. Apparently she was good because as shown she wasn't dead…yet.
"Now that we are all set let us finish this." She spoke as she ran and closed the gap of the last remaining feet.
When she finally reached him he reached out to slash her with his claws. He just missed her but she didn't miss him. With a strange fireball that had come from her hand she drove it deep into his right shoulder.
The pain was white hot and he couldn't feel or think of anything but the fire that now seemed to be flowing through his veins.
She came at him again and he saw her just as she drove another fireball into his left side. This time though he managed to grab her. Maybe she was getting careless or he was even more desperate, it didn't matter. What mattered now was that he had her.
As hard and as fast as he could he drove his right arm into her stomach. Her scream of pain momentarily made him feel a sting of guilt. It was very momentary because after her scream she silenced herself by sinking her fangs into his neck.
He knew with this move she would recover by sucking all the blood from him and he would die faster and more painfully. Oddly though a strange glow started to emit from their feet. Where the blood from his neck met the blood on the ground from him stabbing her, it was a bright white light.
Thankfully this odd event managed to distract her long enough for him to push her off of him throwing her to the ground. She hadn't gotten enough of his blood so she would probably die.
It bothered him to think that way but it was either she died now or she would heal and come after him again later. Eventually one of them would die from their encounters and he didn't want it to be him.
He ran for the forest leaving Miyu on the ground to whatever may come along for her. He felt guilty he really did. So guilty that before he reached the woods he turned back at her lifeless form.
"I'm going to hate myself for this for the rest of my life, how ever short she makes it." He grumbled and went back and picked her up.
The second she was in his arms she woke with a start and hit him again with a fireball on his other shoulder. This he couldn't stand and he dropped her on the ground. He fell to one knee for a brief moment and got up and ran when he realized she was getting up again.
Miyu took one look at the direction knowing he would not get far and proceeded to slowly go after him. She was hoping she would heal before she ran into him again.
