Chapter 3
Lyani looked at the blue sky and the lush green forest around her. It reminded her of home and her family. It also kept her from seeing the trap a few feet ahead. With only one step to getting her leg caught a girl on a flying horse flew in front of her, "Stop!"
Lyani was about to attack until she saw the trap, "What is that human?"
The girl, who Lyani now saw was a woman, laughed, "It's a trap, tiger demon."
Lyani wanted to claw the woman's eyes out of their sockets. However she attempted to stay calm realizing that the woman was from a tribe, "I am not a demon."
"Then what are you? A human?"
Lyani lunged towards the Indian, "I am half demon, and do not say otherwise."
"Yes I can see you're not very strong, Yes maybe stronger than humans, but demons? No."
Lyani got ticked when the human ducked her attacks, "So you are a mere human, I could kill you in a few hits or kicks"
With a shake of her head the human spoke, "true, however I must change the subject."
Lyani eye's had the look of hatred, "change of subject? Fine, change it."
"ok, cat demon, oh I'm sorry, half demon. What's you name?"
Her voice was sweet and innocent not one shred of sarcasm; still, Lyani didn't trust her, "Lyani Diango. Yours?"
"Alina Invere, and this is my horse Kiako We are traveling from the tribe Tanaika. I am the chief's only daughter."
Lyani looked at Alina, "Then why did you leave?"
"Mostly because my father is trying to force me to marry a man in the village; however, I refused."
Lyani nodded her head.
"So you left?"
"Yes. What about you?"
Alina and Lyani started heading north, "I left my mother's cave when I was five, and moved into a village were I met my best friend Juna. Sadly when I was sixteen, Juna was killed by cat demons. I miss-"
"Killed? Why?"
Lyani wiped away a tear, "they thought that if I wasn't full demon I didn't deserve a friend."
Alina let it go and they kept walking north towards the Kiana village. A few hours later Lyani heard a noise in the brush ahead of them. She put her finger over her mouth the quiet Alina. What was it??
