Chapter 1

"Taylor, look out!" Saige Adams yelled to her best friend, just as the big evil demon, they had been fighting for the last hour, caught her with an powerful upper cut and sent the young teen into the nearest brick building.

Taylor collided with the building and landed hard on her side, knocking the wind out of her. She grabbed her side, letting a yelp out, as she tried getting to her feet. "Sai, I'm not sure how much more I can take," She said breathless, as she walked over and helped Saige to her feet. "He's kicking our ass."

"I know," Saige said, as she wrapped her hand around her upper part of her left arm to stop the bleeding from the open gash, she had received a moment ago. "We need help fast before we come his next dinner meal."

"That would suck," Taylor said as she took her fighting stance again, "I personally, would like to grow old and gray and have a family and lots of grandchildren. I'm too young to die."

"You? Me! I'm too young to die," Saige argued, taking her stance next to Taylor, "I just got my licenses, my parents bought me a new car, and I haven't had the chance to wreck it yet."

Taylor laughed. "Your dad would have your ass if you wreck your car," She told her, as she turned her attention to the tall beefed up, four eyed demon. Her laughter faded and her face turned an icky white, as she could no longer see the demon. He was gone. "Uh Sai, we have a problem here," She said, pointing to where the demon was last saw, "Mr. four eyes is gone."

Saige quickly turned her head and looked where Taylor was pointing. She was right. He was gone. She swallowed the hard lump in her throat and tried to speak, but couldn't. This didn't look too good for them. They took their eyes away for one second and gave him the perfect time to get away or come up with the perfect plan to ambush them. "Shit Tay, I think we're in big trouble now," She said.

"You can say that again," Taylor said, as she started walking around the area for any signs that could lead them to the demon. Saige followed closely behind, with her hands on her Sais, ready to attack anything or anyone that came at them.

"Do you hear anything?" She asked, as Taylor tried to focus on the sounds around her, trying to pick out anything out of the Ordinary, but with Saige breathing down her neck, she could not concentrate, "Shhh," She said, quietly, "You're not helping."

"Sorry," Saige whispered and quietly walked away. She walked a few feet away and started to look up, around, high, hoping for any clues that Mr. Four Eyes had gone this way. But there wasn't a thing around. She sighed frustrated, whimpering, when a sharp pain shot through the right side of her rib cage. She looked down and could see a small slice in her outfit with small drops of blood flowing from her open wound. "Shit," She said, as she pressed her hand against the wound, "This is going to leave a scar."

Taylor stood there for a minute, trying to separate the noisy sounds from the people talking in the small town of Maple Creek, but there were too many. Her head started to hurt and she could feel a headache coming on. This wasn't the time for that, she could deal with the earth shattering pound in her head later, in her own room, but for now she had a demon, that needed to be destroyed before it could kill anymore, to find.

She took a deep breath, held it in for a second, before letting it out slowly and closed her eyes. Slowly letting all the noise and sounds that were in her head fade from her mind. She concentrated on anything that was weird to her, ignoring everything else. Doing so, took a lot out of her and she could feel it in her body.

When she didn't think that she would be able to find what she was looking for, a low husky, growl, she managed to find. It felt as though it was close, but yet in a way, it was so far away. Then she heard it again, this time, a little closer and she could feel every hair on her body stand up, shivers ran down her spine. She quickly opened her eyes, it had felt creepy, and even though she had been hunting down demons for the last 2 years, it had scared her. But what even got her more scared then anything she had ever saw in her short life, was what she saw when she looked over at Saige. The demon, Mr. Four Eyes, was close, almost on her and all that she could do, was yell," SAIGE! WATCH OUT!" But it had been too late. When Saige turned around to see what Taylor was yelling about, the demon, they had been searching for was standing next to her. With an evil grin on his black mutant face, he brought his sharp fingernails up and sliced her across the chest, cutting into her flesh like a wild lion tarring into his prey.

Saige fell to the ground with a loud thud, crying out in pain, as she looked down at the freshly made cuts and her blood poured out like running water. Taylor quickly rushed to her fallen friend to make sure that she was alright. Giving the four eyed demon a powerful front kick to the chest, sending him straight into the side of the dumpster. She bent down and examined her wounds, then quickly she tore a piece of cloth off her cloak and pressed it against her chest to try to stop the bleeding.

"Tay, it hurts," She cried, tears spilled from her eyes, as pain shot through her chest. It had felt like she had been hit by a car and every bone in her body had been broken. "It hurts, It hurts so bad."

"It's going to be okay," Taylor told her, feeling her own eyes begin to water. She felt the anger in her blood boil. How dare that four eyed freak, hurt her friend and get a way with it. She stood to her feet; her fist formed at her side, and walked over to the demon, ready to take her anger out on him.

But he was ready for her, smiling his rotten teeth at her, he dodged one of her punches and kicked her in her stomach. She gasped for air, trying to ignore the pain that ran through her mid section. She kicked him again as hard as she could, but it only knocked him back a few inches. He laughed at her, as if it had not fazed him one bit. She kicked him again, then quickly with all her might, she punched him in his jaw. His head snapped back. He lightly rubbed his jaw with his fingers and slowly turned his head to look at her and gave her an evil grin and laughed at her.

He reached out and grabbed her around her neck tightly and picked her up off the ground. She struggled to set herself free but his grip was to strong. She started gasping for air as she could feel her life being sucked from her. Her face turned a dark red, feeling light headed and dizzy. He gave a husky, low laugh before he launched her in the air and she went flying, landing hard in the building behind her, leaving her print and part of the bricks came crashing down on her.

Saige struggled to her feet, staggering into one of the dumpsters. She reached for her dagger and threw it as hard as she could. The dagger came connected in the demons back. He let out a horror scream as he tried to reach and grab for the dagger to get it out.

She stumbled over to Taylor, who lay motionless, buried under the rubble. She fell to her knees and with her free hand; she started to remove the bricks.

Taylor moaned loudly, as Saige got the last of the bricks off her. "Tay, are you alright?" She asked, grabbing her shoulder and gently rolling her over on her back.

"Ohhhh," She moaned again, trying to move her now sore then ever body. "That's going to leave a mark in the morning."

"You're okay," Saige cried happily.

"Yeah, I'm fine," She said, as Saige helped her sit up. "I think." She pressed her fingertips against her forehead and felt something cool and wet. She yelped in pain as she looked and they were covered in blood. "This is diffidently going to leave a mark."

Taylor sat there for a few seconds trying to gather herself, before she tried to get to her feet. Saige sat there. She knew they weren't going to win this fight. He was too strong for them. She didn't like it, but she knew that it was over. They were going to lose. Tears fell from her eyes, she glanced back at the demon who looked even more pissed off then he ever had been before and she knew that, that wasn't a good sign.

"Tay, I can't go on," Saige cried. "I can't do this anymore."

Taylor looked down at her. "I know, I can't either," She told her, feeling every muscle in her body scream with agony. "But we have too. We've come this far to not give up now. We have to give it all that we can. Even if we don't make it through."

Saige looked up at her. Their eyes met and Taylor smiled. "At least we'll die trying."

She got to her feet and carefully as she could, Saige got into her fighting stance once more. "Let's give this four eyed freak a lesson to be taught."

"Now that's what I'm talking about," Taylor said, as she stood next to Saige, ready to give all that she can. "Let's send this asshole back where he came from."

"Yeah!"

With their tired, battered and sore bodies, both girls ready to fight for what they stand for, to give their all, Saige and Taylor ran at the demon, weapons in hand and started to hack and slash, kicking and punching, throwing anything and everything they possibly could.

Taylor grabbed her whip from her belt and whipped it, slicing into his flesh, as it wrapped around his neck. She pulled as hard as she could; Mr. Four Eyed went spinning in the air, landing hard on the cement.

He groaned and growled as he stood to his feet, Saige took this chance as her turn and threw her boomerang knife, catching it when it return to her. She smirked at the demon, when he fell to his knees, holding his stomach, and doubled over in pain. Blood flowed through his hands and dripped on the ground below him.

"You came to the wrong town," Taylor said, whipping her whip again, catching him around one of his arms, and pulled.

He fell to the ground and slid across the ground and smacked into the building. You heard a loud grunt come from him and a moan of pain. He shook his head, dazed from the blow he took and staggered to his feet. He turned to face the two young girls and growled.

"Let's finish this freak," Saige said, pulling out one of her daggers. She twirled it in her fingers and caught it when she tossed it up in the air. She glanced over at Taylor, who only nodded, and with a smile on her face, she threw her dagger.

With a loud, horrifying screeching scream, the four eyed, black mutated demon, fell face first to the ground, with Saige's dagger sticking in his heart.

The ground shook and lightning flashed across the sky. The girls screamed as they were rocked back and fourth.

"Taylor, what's happening?" Saige screamed, as loud deafening booms rumbled through the air. The wind picked up and blew fast and hard.

"I don't know," Taylor yelled out, as she tried keeping her balance, when the earth beneath her feet shook faster.

An energy vortex began to open behind them. Blue and green energy flashed across and around the small opening of the vortex. Before they knew what happened, Taylor and Saige were thrown back hard into the building and were ripped into the vortex, only leaving behind their cries for help.
