23 Interesting eyes, part 2 (1/2)
”Arrrggg!” a cry came from Snow, she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes trying to reduce the pain.
The knife was plucked out harshly, but Snow refused to let the pain show and gritted even harder on her teeth. In the next few seconds she was swung from the wall to the grass behind them.
Snow rolled a few times before landing professionaly on her feet, taking her usual fighting stance. She clutched her blooded shoulder with her right hand, trying to put presure on it to prevent it from bleeding to much, she could feel the warm blood trickle down her arm, and without weapons, she'll have to stratigise carefully before taking on this unknown attacker.
It was at that moment that he stepped into the light.
”You, you're the one from earlier” Snow said in a accusing tone. He didn't say anything, but a wicked smile came accros his face not long after.
Snow began to feel something sinister in the air, and when she looked towards the man, she could almost feel the power radiating off of him, she has never felt anything this strong, but it also felt familiar, in some ways.
He at first looked like an ordinary person, but then things began to change, things, began to shift. Flaming red patterns began to spread across his body, his ears became pointy like an elves ear. His dark eyes became red as a blazing fire. The short hair that he had shifted into longer ones, he completely changed.
Snow eyes widened, she never knew this existed.
”W-who are you?” Snow exclaimed, ”no one in particular, but I'll tell you this, you can call me Demonic.” he said with a sly smile, ”what are you doing here?” Snow asked, trying to maintain a calm posture, ”well, I was just a passerby, but then I saw your interesting eyes. I haven't seen your sort in over a 100 years, and here I thought that I've killed every single last one.”
Snow couldn't utter a word, she was shell shocked, 'and here I thought I killed every last one'. It kept repeating in her head, what did he mean by that?
”What do you mean?” Snow asked loudly, demanding answers, ”well, how do you think I've lived for over a hundredyears?” He answered, a big smile on his lips, like he's actually proud of killing all those people.
”Your power is truly something else. Everyone knew what you people could do, stopping the darkness, killing big threats of the world, yada, yada, yada, but no one knew the full extent of your powers, nor did I. After a while I became very interested in your abilities, and so I've been experimenting a little. Do you know what I found out-” he gave a wicked smile, before continuing, ”- your powers can make anyone stronger, if done and collected the right way.”
Everything began falling into place, and Snow connected the dots, ”you killed all of those people for your experiment, to become stronger, more powerful!” Snow roared, how can anyone be this cruel.
Snow now knew why his power felt so familiar, he took it from other people just like her, she felt disgusted thinking about it.
Snow couldn't ponder over the thought, because out of nowhere, he appeared right in front of her, he lifted her up by the neck, choking her.
