Prologue
"Nice parry," the man said, letting his sword down, the tip touching the floor.
"That was a weak attack," said the girl, swinging her sword around for show. "I've had better attacks from amateurs."
"Brenn, I thought we agreed to save the insults for the vampires."
"I know Pryce, but you know me, I can't resist," Brenn said as she smirked openly. "I'm going to go to bed now."
"Good night."
Pryce kissed her softly on the lips and Brenn left the training room and went to bed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Brenn got out of the shower and stretched. She had never felt so refreshed in her life. These couple of weeks of vacation had been good for her.
"Pryce! I'm up"
There was no answer. That was strange because he was usually up before her. She listen harder. The apartment was totally quiet.
"Pryce?"
She walked out of the bathroom and into his room. She noticed that his bed hadn't been slept it. She left and went into the living room.
"Pryce?"
Her eyes didn't seem to be helping her at all, so she opened her ears to all sounds. Silence. She was down to her last sense, smell. She took in a deep breathe, and she caught his smell. It was everywhere, not unusual, since he lived there. She was about to relax, and then she was hit with the other smell, the black acrid smell of pure evil. Vampire. It was strong, there had been lots of them in there.
"Shit."
How had they gotten in for one thing, and how had they been in here without her detecting them. Her senses were usually sharper.
She was fuming, blazing mad. She knew the vampires must have kidnapped Pryce. Without even thinking she grabbed her stakes, sword, and headed out.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She tracked the vamps to there nest. It was an old run down place, with a lot of exits, but she had the advantage because of the fact that the sun was up.
She lifted her foot and kicked down the door. Judging by the screaming, she figured she had dusted a few vamps in the process.
"Where is he?" she said, her voice littered wit hatred and loathing. She walked in, staying in the sunshine until she saw what she was up against. "Where is he?"
"Right here," said a sickly sweet voice.
Brenn looked and saw the speaker. He was an Apothy demon, a priest. He gestured to the pole in the middle of the room with Pryce tied to it.
"Pryce!"
He didn't answer. His head was slumped. He was unconscious. She scolded herself for not noticing before.
"You are too late, the ritual is performed. You may say good-bye though."
What ritual. She didn't know and really didn't care, as long as she killed them and Pryce was okay.
Before she could free Pryce, she had to get rid of the road blocks. She unsheathed her sword and charged the nearest vamp. She decapitated him and another in one swipe. The next one she staked with a well aimed throw.
It didn't take her long to kill all but the priest, who was huddled in a corner, trying to be out of sight.
"I'll deal with you later," she said as she began to untie Pryce. When the last rope was cut, he fell to the ground, still unconscious.
"Pryce," she said softly. shaking him. "Pryce!" She kept shaking him until he disappeared. "Pryce! Where is he?!" she shrieked at the priest.
"Where you will be soon, Hell."
BOOOOM
Something big landed in front of her. She looked up and saw a huge demon, one she had never faced before.
"Shit."
