LEGACY OF KMAS CHAPTER 4
ENTER THE UNKNOWN
What an odd man that ninja was. So mysterious, little did I know that my experience with mystery and unknown was just beginning. I was almost out of the woods. It was strange that how vast these woods were, this was only a fraction of the way Kazuya directed me to. Come to think of it I never told you where the hell I was going. My destination lied in the warehouse district in the heart of a place called Dark City. Funny that Kazuya would choose a meeting place with such an appropriate name. I was basically in the dark with what the hell was going on!
As I came from the woods I realized it was morning, yet it was still dark. Not as dark as before but I could see the sky and it was very gray. I guess it was gonna rain soon. I emerged from the depths of my forest and into a neighboring cemetery.
"It's not as dank and decrepit as mine is...but I guess it's alright", I thought to myself.
I heard a little bit of thunder as I passed through the silent graves. The silence nearly overwhelmed me. So quiet, so depressing, so full of death...I loved it!
"Enjoying the scenery Dark One!"
I spun around quickly. I looked amongst the graves and peered past the monastery. I saw nothing, and sensed nothing.
"Ah yes, the sweet sound of death, does it not intrigue you?"
The voice was feminine and it was quite young as well.
"Who are you?"
"Hmmm. The master was right in choosing you. So demanding, so dark".
"I grow weary of this game, show yourself".
I suddenly felt another presence. But unlike the ninja, it did not have even the smallest scent of a human. Through its soul I sensed the taint of death.
"You are not human creature! My guess is you belong with these corpses".
For this scent was the unmistakable sign of the undead. A field I knew all to well.
"Hmmm..... You are smart necromancer. But I could say the same about you. Both in life and soon death."
"Is that a threat?"
"No it's a promise!"
"What are you creature?"
"I am simply known.... As Unknown".
The creature revealed itself to me in a purple haze that rivaled the gray sky above. She began to take form. She was about an average height, and wore a gleaming metal breastplate of, what I could tell, the finest silver I had ever seen. Her skirt was dark purple as that of Kazuya's business suit and she wore long jackboots. Her hair was as white as death's face and waved with the howling winds as her violet eyes gazed into mine. As she glared at me two fangs dropped from the sides of her mouth. So she was merely another member of the site, ...and quite an attractive one.
"So you are a vampire," I said coldly.
"Yes Darkling. I hoped you would stay for dinner".
"Well, you don't sound nearly as humble as you did on the KMAS site. You caught me off guard, but even so, you will not find me such easy prey fledgling".
"I'll show you "fledgling". Come here morsel!".

As the ghoul rushed towards me in a violet haze, I thought to myself as to how laughable this attempt was. As she swiped at me with her claws I easily dodged them. Faster and faster she swiped and even tried to get a few kicks and bites in but to no avail. She stood, a little out of breath but still very active. I knew she wanted my blood. But this meal was not on the menu.
"Why don't you fight? Are you afraid I may hurt you?"
"If I was afraid of that I woulda stood still and not have to deal with this pathetic act. Besides... I don't hit ladies".
"DIE Dark One!"
She came at me with all of her rage and fury. She swung so fast that for mere mortals they would be dead multiple times before they hit the ground. But to me, it was a simple process of moving the hell out of her way. To be quite honest, it started to become boring. She finally ended her attack and dropped to one knee. She was out of breath and fatigued. Her eyes widened in disbelief and I think she finally understood that she had no chance in hell of even scratching me.
"How? Th..... This is...impossible! How could a mere human like you even sense those attacks? You...SHOULD BE CONFETTI BY NOW!
"You don't know anything do you? I am a necromancer and a strong one at that! I can sense all movements and activities of the dead, or in this case, the undead. I knew your every intention before you did".
I could tell she was weakening. She was undead and needed blood, that and it wasn't really even night, had this have been, and her strength be at it's maximum, she probably would have had me. But this just wasn't her lucky day.
"No." She stammered "This can't be".
"But it is. And it seems you have forgotten something. I can also manipulate and control the dead as well".
Unknown's face grew with a new horror as this revelation crushed any belief of defeating me. I cracked my knuckles and raised my right hand. As I did a bolt of lightning struck me. I pulled in the energy and imbued it with my sense of telepathy. The bolt went from electrifying white to a mind-shattering gray. I hurled the bolt at the weakened vampire. The bolt hit her with ease and the aura spread around her. With her body in my control I raised her to the sky and then with a strong force I pulled her back to the ground. She was injured badly. Merciless bastard that I was, I pulled her up again and with that same merciless power I pulled her down again. She was begging for mercy, she could take no more. I knew this; one more slam would have sent this vamp back to the grave. She screamed as I lifted her limp body again. But I think common sense got the better of me this time. I let loose my grip and she fell half the way to the ground and was knocked out.
(End Event)
I walked to her body and simply said, "Know this I let you go only because of your allegiance with Kazuya. Had it had been any different your soul and blood would be mine!"
I turned around and walked past the silent graves. As I neared the cemetery gates I saw a bright flash from where Unknown lay and when it subsided a bat flew from the area we battled. I simply watched as the bat flew into the gray sky. When it was out of sight a bolt of lightning struck and it began to rain.
