-The Offer-
"Ah a new century" Angelica said
"And yet here we are at our own New Years party and we haven't killed anyone yet" Victoria said impatiently
"I wanted to start off the New Year with a ..." Angelica grabbed the closet person singing the New Year song and cracked his neck "...bang"
A few screamed erupted around them after seeing Angelica kill that man. Many ran to doors but Victoria saw to it that all were locked
"Cam down everyone!" Angelica said
"I'm glad you all enjoyed the party but now it's our turn for fun," Victoria added
Suddenly an arrow flew at Angelica and Victoria caught it just before it would have struck her middle. Their eyes flashed menacingly. They had learned how to expose their fangs without going into their demonic visage and they were clearly exposed now.
Five beings were standing confidently and unafraid. They all looked human but the duo could spell the demon blood all but one possessed. One of them stepped forward and clapped
"Who the hell are you?" Victoria said clutching the arrow down at her side
"Impressive. That is the first time Hugh has ever missed" he replied in a deep voice. He wore all black and had brown hair that hung tied in a ponytail.
"You didn't answer me!" Victoria growled
"Yu come to our party uninvited. Now reveal yourself" Angelica sneered
"I am Richard. My comrades are Hugh, Sara, Dee and Jack"
Victoria saw Hugh covered in up to date weaponry. Sara was a vampire with black hair. Dee looked Amazonian and Jack constantly emitted hissing noises.
"What do you want?" Victoria asked
"A test" he snapped his fingers and the other four attacked. Angelica turned Hugh's crossbow on himself and impaled him. Victoria staked Sara with the arrow as she charged. The Amazon stood still and let Jack fight. Angelica took one of Hugh's swords and took his head off in less than five seconds and watched him writhe on the ground.
Dee yelled and charged with a scimitar sheathed. You would that thought by her demeanor that she would have lasted the longest but Angelica slashed her across the throat and she fell to the ground and the blood oozed out of her like sap from a tree. Angelica wiped off her hands and pouted
"I broke a damn nail"
Richard began clapping again while the rest of the party whimpered in fear and had backed up against all the walls. Some tried to get out but Victoria growled and they instantly stopped
"You're got two seconds before we add you to the body count" Victoria snapped
"I represent the Order of Taraka." He said simply
"And why are you here?" Angelica asked while examining her nail
"You have been under our watch since your memorable start but it as been difficult to set up a test. You certainly move around a lot"
"Is there a point to this?" Victoria asked
"We want you to join us," he said
The two looked at each other then burst out in laughter. Richard looked angry
"This is a great honor," he said
"Haha, Maybe for someone else. We're not ones to have a calling." Angelica said
"And certainly not assassins" Victoria added
"We kill who we want," Angelica said
"How we want"
"When we want"
"And manage to look good in the scheme of things" Victoria said finishing their switch off
"Do you want payment of some sort?" he asked hopeful
"Payment?" Angelica said in another wave of laughter "Look at where you are. We don't need anything"
"We are not dogs who come when you whistle"
"You could finally make a name for yourself," he said
"If we really wanted one, I guarantee you we would have one" Victoria said
"But it's best to kill and remain unheard so that slayers don't constantly pester us. We have our story in one account and that's all we need"
"Now then, we have killing, maiming and torturing to do so if you'll excuse us"
"No one turns down the Order of Taraka and lives"
They started laughing once again
"We just took out four of your assassins without even taking a hit ourselves" Victoria said "and by yourself you think you can take us?"
"I know I can"
He pulled out a sword and ran towards them with all speed. Right before he struck, Victoria crouched down and swung her leg sending the man flying into a wall. Victoria walked over to him as he was getting up. Despite the fact that she was in a dress, she kicked and pinned him to the wall with her heel at his neck. He hands grabbed her ankle but she didn't let up
"Wow, you know I was really expecting more" Angelica said
"Yes, you seemed so confident"
Slowly Victoria moved her leg up and lifted him off the ground. He struggled even more.
"You and your Order better think twice before bothering us again" Angelica said "we'll send them you as a warning"
His face looked hopeful for a moment until Angelica pulled out two daggers and stapled him to the wall. Victoria opened his shirt and took a look.
"Not a single scar. I think we can fix that" she took her nails and buried them beneath his flesh pulling down so that deep cuts were left. He didn't make a sound but the pain could be seen upon his face.
"Sharp, blunt, cold, hot, loud. Where should be begin?" Angelica said
"I thought you already had," he said with blood slowly dripping from his mouth.
"No, that was just a sample." Victoria said.
No man to date had ever suffered such a horrific death as the one Angelica and Victoria imposed upon him. They tortured him with every resource available and finally ended his shrieks and cries deep into the night. However their bloodlust wasn't satisfied and many more suffered similar deaths.
They left just before sunrise and the room was practically painted red. But to look at the state of them, you'd never know because not a single drop of blood stained their clothes. The massacre was all over the papers by the next day and Angelica and Victoria were proud of their work. Although they did have to leave town and lay low for a while.
"Let's see someone top that." Angelica said as they rode away in their carriage.
