~~~~~General POV~~~~~
Levy watched in horror as blood gushed out of Mr Al's now headless neck. He remained hovering over The Coffin for a minute before crashing onto the ground right in front of Levy. She tried to move her fatigued body away from the puddle of blood collecting at her feet but failed. She felt a few tears slip out of her face when the warm blood began staining her legs and clothes. Her mind couldn't make sense of what had just happened.
"Seriously! The first meal I have when I wake up was an old man! That wasn't tasty at all!" Levy whipped her head towards The Coffin where the voice had come from. And there stood a... woman? Well she would have been if not for most of her flesh having rotted off, and her very visible bones. But even with all that she looked kind of familiar...
She watched in utter fear as the Monster licked her bloody lips and turned towards Levy. "Now, you on the other hand... you would do nicely." The Monster said and tried to take a step towards Levy only to fall over in a heap of bones, her weakened limbs no longer being able to support her weight.
Levy saw this as her chance and tried to pull herself up again, but she had used too much energy. She couldn't move. She was literally at the monsters mercy.
The Monster sighed and looked at Levy again, this time with an even more sinister look. "This must be my lucky day, I was freed of my prison and the one to do it was my next host." She chuckled darkly. Levy gulped, "N-new h-host?" She stuttered out.
"Oh what do you know! She can talk!" The Monster said sardonically. "Yes my little lamb, I'm going to take over your body and be on my merry little way. I do hope you don't mind. I mean, not that it matters. Now just hold still while I finish up this rune."
Levy heard the sound of scraping and took in a deep breath, 'Ok Levy, you cannot escape right now. The only option you have is to gain more information and stall her Long enough for you to regain Atleast a portion of your strength.' With that in mind, Levy picked herself up and began to use her best weapon, her words.
"What do you mean by 'prison'? I thought you were the one who placed those runes." "Trying to get some information outta me huh little lamb?" She said in a mirthful voice. "I mean y-you are going to k-kill me so you might as well tell me." Levy said with as firm a voice as she could. This was the oldest trick in the book for a reason, and thankfully she brought it!
The Monster guffawed, "You have guts little lamb and you are also right. Well allow me to tell you a tale...
