Call To Darkness: The Assassins' Story
Chapter 10: Twins of Peril
A/N: This doesn't reflect the people that represent Asha, Ebony, and Dayus. This is to Lucian. It will flow with the story mind you but understand I am seriously pissed. I've tried and tried to be a good friend. To comfort when you're down, to make you laugh when you've had a bad day. Sometimes I feel like it's for nothing. No one likes the cold shoulder.
Okay sorry for the tirade. This chapter will have a sister one about what Asha dreams but right now its Anna's dreams.
Anna changed into her dragon form in order to allow Asha to have a warm pillow. She drifted into a light sleep where she dreamed.
Down the hall from where Anna slept she smelled the blood of new birth. That's right Anna was in the hospital. They were twins from her guess. Getting up she stalked quietly down the hall. The Nursery door was standing wide open. The two newborn twins lay in their cribs fast asleep. Their scent was off for some reason. It made her all the more curious about the two. Stalking towards the two beds she read the name tags. Alysia Star Black, the little girl and the boy Brandon Aaron Black. She sniffs the twins carefully but nothing comes up again. Must be my imagination.' The small girl grabs her finger. Their eyes met and Anna was taken by surprise.
Excuse me miss you're not suppose to be in here, a nurse said quietly.
I'm sorry, I just wanted to see.
It's all right. You better get back to your bed Anna.
A slow smile graced her features as she walked away.
Years later...
Anna fought hard against a pack of devils. They were a fierce bunch this group. It consisted of five of them in total but their best warrior Kane was amoung them.
The scent of human twins came to her nose. The scent was familiar. There was fear within their scents. Finally throwing back the devils she tore into the darkness to find the twins. When she found them they were cowering together the boy was protecting his sister from the man with a gun. Without a thought she lunged forwards but it wasn't soon enough the boy was already dead whereas the girl was barely clinging to a fading life. Their blood sprayed across the brick wall of the building. Anna didn't want to analyze what was on the ground. The man turned the gun on himself and blew his brains out. Turning from the man she knelt over the dying girl. Her eyes were glazing over in death. Unshed tears stood in her eyes.
she pleaded.
I'm sorry, I...
The girl grabbed her hand. Anna was taken aback. This girl had done that before. Then she remembered the hospital long ago.
A slow smile graces her features as she passes away. Anna dipped her head in sadness. A sense of loss swept through her like a tidal wave. A feeling of guilt washed over her as well. A familiar scent caught her nose it was the scent of death and brimstone.
she muttered.
Backing up she saw a man kneel beside the twins. He had long black hair tied back in a loose ponytail. His ears were lightly pointed. His eyes were a glittering amber. The stranger stood about six foot even. The business suit he wore was white and black.
So young, he crooned. They'll make perfect spawns.
Anna didn't know what to do. The two twins rose older than they were a few moments ago. The girls eyes had changed drastically. The boy seemed different too but she couldn't place it.
the man said.
Anna backed up a small bit. Do not fear Annabelle. You have done well protecting my children.
Who are you? Anna stammered out.
I am Lucifer, Annabelle. These are my children Ebony and Lucian. That was the scent you smelled long ago.
Why was I drawn to them?
They are to be your companions in the future Anna.
I don't understand.
The three of you will forget until the day you are needed to rejoin each other in order to fight an evil even which I would deny.
Lucifer turned towards Anna and captured her gaze. Darkness swamped her vision.
Anna came awake breathing heavily. That dream... A small smile graced her face as she raised her head. Lifting her head up she scented the wind knowing Ebony and Lucian would be there to help her soon enough.
Elsewhere...
A pair of twins smirked as they looked up at the moon finally remembering their mission in life set to them by their father. Even Lucian the one that followed God was ready to accomplish his mission to help the were dragon.
A/N: It didn't turn out as bad as I thought. I'm still mad but writing this helped me so on ward.
