Run
A girl ran through a dark alley. Blinded by darkness she crashed into garbage cans, empty boxes, and other objects
Turning a corner, the girl stopped to catch her breath. Panting, she glanced back through the direction she just came from and spotted a dark figure running in her direction.
He's coming . . .
Panicking she immediately took of again. As the girl continued to run, she spotted streetlights and pedestrians, filled with relief the girl began to run in that direction.
Closely the distance between herself and people that could help her, the girl continued to run with the thought of safety planted in her mind. If she could somehow escape from this alley of death and reach the police then she will truely be safe.
If you become distracted, he'll get you.
A hand crept out from the shadows, grabbing the girl by her shoulder and slamming her against a brick wall in the small alley.
"If you scream, I'll break your neck"the man whispered into the girl's ear as his hand dug into her shoulder causing the girl excruciating pain.
The girl struggled but it was useless and it only caused her more pain in her right shoulder.
Removing his hand from the girl's shoulder the man pinned both of her hands above her head, and with the other hand, covered her mouth.
"If you move it'll only be more painful," razor sharp fangs flashed in front of the girl's face as the man's opened mouth began to descend toward her neck.
Panic stricken the girl began to squirm desperately in an attempt to break free of the man's strong, bruising grips.
But if he does, she'll come
An arrow shot out from the dark alleyway and impaled the man's chest missing his heart by a millimeter.
Crying out in pain the man backed up and turned toward where the arrow came from to find thewielder of the deadly weapon.
Another arrow shot out striking the man in the forehead, followed by another that impailed his heart, turning the man into ash and causing the girl to fall to her knees from the unexpected release.
Terror stricken the girl turned her head to look in the direction the man was. There, deep in the shadows of the alleyway she saw a woman standing gracefully with a bow in her hand and arrows strapped to her back.
The girl looked in awe at the woman as the moon's lunar rays broke through the clouds and bathe the woman in a heavenly light.
"What was that?" the girl asked the woman. Her voice wavering with fear of what could have happened to her.
"That was a vampire," the woman said in a cool voice before turning her back to the girl and walking into the shadows, disappearing as if she was never there.
And kill the vampire for you
"Kikyou has just killed another vampire, sir," reported a young girl with red hair tied up into two ponytails on the side of her head.
"Very well, that'll be all, Ayame" answered a small old man with a white mustache and white hair streaked with gray.
"Myouga sir, May I ask what will happen once Kikyou finds Naraku?" Myouga looked at Ayame and then down at his hands on his lap.
"She'll have to fight him," answered Myouga
"And if she loses?" Ayame asked curiously, staring at Myouga with questioning green eyes
"We will have to find another to take her place . . . probably her sister will"
"But . . . " Ayame stared at Myouga before a knock at the door caused both of them to jump and look toward the large wooden doors with symbols and carvings of demons and hidden inscriptions.
As the doors opened an elderly woman with long white hair with black streaks, a patch over her left eye, wearing traditional Japanese shrine clothing stepped into the huge room that was stacked from top to bottom on each wall with books from different eras.
Looking toward the desk in the middle of the room, the woman noticed scrolls laid outwith books to help decode the inscriptions.
"Kaede, what brings ye here?" Myouga asked standing up and walking around his desk to go toward the equally small human woman.
"We have a problem" Myouga stopped in his tracks just a few feet away from Kaede "Kikyou has found Naraku"
"That's great now we just ha-"
"Naraku has killed her," Kaede said cutting Myouga off. "We must find another slayer immediately for Naraku's vampires are getting ready to strike the organization"
Kaede turned her head toward Ayame "Go and contact the organization of elite vampire hunters, and tell them that we need everyone out and hunting, even ask them to enlist the help of demons if we must" Kaede ordered
"But demons are much worse than vampires!" Ayame protested "Especially demon-vampires!"
"Yes, but we may not have a choice and we only need one person…we need Inuyasha" with that Kaede turned and walked out of the room.
Myouga fell to the floor after Kaede exited. "Our best hunter, killed?"
Myouga turned his head toward Ayame and said "Do as Kaede commanded, we need whatever help that we can get."
Standing up Myouga dusted off his gray suit and turned to the door "I will go and break the news to Kikyou's family and then I'll immediately begin training Kagome to take her sister's place" with that he left and broke the news to a small shrine family about the lost of their eldest daughter.
