Prologue
The battle raged, just like it always did. serpiente verses avians, again and again.
This time it was different. An onlooker watches, watches people die. A waste, all a waste. She notices something from her perch in a tree. A small boy, too small to be fighting, for sure. Just a child.
Anger coursed through her. A child! Fighting! This shouldn't be happening.
It was a young serpiente boy. An older boy, obviously his brother stood close to him, trying to shield him from most of the attacks. The brother appeared to be not much older than the child.
What has this war come to? The silent watcher thought to herself. Suddenly there was a shift in the battle. The Avians surged forward, swamping the serpiente.
The onlooker watched with horror as the older brother was killed by a knife straight into his heart. The child backed away, terrified.
He was quickly felled by a knife jab straight into his face.
The onlooker felt rage course through her as the child toppled over, landing next to his brother. The avian soldier who had killed them both laughed at his small victory.
She felt her form change. A shifting, rippling feeling went through her.
She jumped form the tree, landing on the boy's killer. He was quickly disposed of, as she moved on to the next avian in her immediate area.
She was in a blood lust, but she didn't care. All she could think about as the murder of an innocent child, all she could see was the child falling to the ground, dead.
She lost herself in the blood lust, fangs tearing and claws flashing, killing any avian who dared to come across her path.
