"Slayer Strength"

Prologue

Out of the fog a woman appeared. Her face stained with tears. Her feet never touched the gray and rough cement that covered each alley. She stumbled as she ran; every few seconds she looked back. Something was after her, but what and why. The fog circled around her as if to slow her down. Running she proceeded down a dark alley still glancing behind. The thing gaining fast she picked her pace. Then she tripped. She fell to the ground with a load thud. Her yelp echo through the dark alley. Her elbow red and wounded from a nearby stone that had come out of the road a few months ago. Pushing to get her self up she stopped as she was on her knees. She could feel the things hot breath on her neck. Her hair stood on their ends. Fear raced through her body like electricity. Finally she got up her courage. On the count of three she would turn around.
1..2..3 she whirled around. Only her scream pierced the silent night. Then only the sound of her neck being snapped echoed through the alley. There was silence once again.
