Running through the forest ((OPEN))

[Angel Killer]

((OOC: Continuation of " Conversations with Dead People in the Graveyard thread))


She knew she was able to stop now, she was sure of that ten minitues ago when she had first entered the forest clearing, but it made her feel better to run, she felt almost in control as the wind smacked her in the face. She tried running faster, releasing all of her energy on having her legs continue their back and forth motion while she ran, barely letting her feet touch the ground for an instant for fear that if she stopped in that mere second someone would come and take this new found, sudden freedom and sweep her away.

As she ran, her periphials took in the large towering trees, their branches hanging low like witches' fingers trying to touch her, she laughed this off however at her own mind playing tricks with her continuing her run until she seen a large brick building, judging by the worn colors, this was a very old building which was suited with broken glass windows.

Angel stopped in front of it in awe, she had never been this far into the forest before and had not known it had been here. Being more brave than she should be at that moment, Angel stepped forward, she had one of those feelings come over her, one that sensed dangerous territory, however she did not care, she was alone, and accepting of that feeling of lonlieness as it gave her strength in some way.

[Liam]

Liam strode casually through the forest, hungering for something, preferably something innocent that could take the edge off. He had been in the human relm for what felt like a long time, when in reality it was only a short while, he hadn't been this long without feeding off of the soul of a human, and he was unsure how much longer he could go, this is what had brought him to Mitus Forest, feeling he would settle with a dear or something, better than the bacon and eggs Roman insisted on feeding him, saying they needed to get used the the human diet if they were going to fit into.

The smell of something sweet caught his nose, Liam hid behind a large tree when his eyes caught something, no it was definately a someone running in the forest. It was a young girl, Liam allowed her to run ahead of him some more before unhiding himself from the hiding spot as he began following her, hoping she would stop running, as he was sure that she would be enough to satisfy his hunger.

So quickly he ran behind her, seeing she was oblivious to the darkness his aura was generating, as he followed her with a hungry stare. The girl surprised him when she had stopped her run, seeming to be intrigued by a old building, It's not that interesting. Liam thought scratching his head as he watched her step forward to go inside. These humans make things so easy.

[Angel Killer]

She was unaware that places like the one she had just found existed, however even more unaware that she was being followed.
Her eyes tried to focus through the darkness of the building, but failed miserably, she wished she had some sort of light, which in that very instant of thinking so a little ball of light came from what seemed to be inside of her. Something that caused a tad bit of discomfort, how had it been she just thought of it, and it came to her.

She tried something else, thinking of how she wanted the ball of light to be bigger and it expanded to almost twice it's size, still floating there in front of her lighting the floor a short distance in front of her so that she could see where she was stepping. There was something about this place that seemed to be affecting her powers, perhaps a magical entity, she didn't know, whatever it was she liked it, she felt in control, like she could now tame the beast that reared it's head outside of her, keep it contained and only use it when she needed it, not the other way around.

She tried to think of something else, she wanted a flash light, nothing came, so she manipulated her thought and instead of wanting the flashlight she had needed the flashlight and suddenly a large plastic handle materialized in her hand. Angel looked down and seen it was the flashlight she had thought of, a beam of light shone further before her so she could see further threw the darkness.

Don't you think you need to know who that darkly dressed man standing behind you is? The thought hit her so suddenly that it felt like being hit in the head with a frying pan, she would have moved if it hadn't of been for the uselessness of her legs at the moment. She tried to force herself around, but somehow she didn't know how, she just knew that once she did so, there was going to be a face, she could now sympothize with those character's that she used to yell at on the television, the ones where she would get angry at with how stupid they were for just standing there like transfixed idiots, for if this is how they felt, it wasn't pleasant.

Her eyes shifted around her, still too scared to look behind her as she spotted a large staircase, she thought of how badly she needed to move, preferably up there and in that instant she felt her body disappearing from the spot where it had been standing. Now it was her turn to stare at the darkly dressed figure.

[Liam]

He watched from the far side of the building as the young girl moved slowly about taking, or trying to take in her surroundings. Unlike him he new she wasn't able to see through the darkness, which in times like these made being a demon a very handy thing.


He stood there silently and had to shake his head at something he seen, a ball of light, it had just come from the girl? He shook his head, that was impossible, balls of light never came from mere humans, unless they had some sort of magical entity inside of them. No, she was just a regular everyday girl, one which Liam was craving to have a taste of at the moment with how hungry he was.

Slowly but surly Liam climbed in through the window, being a demon, gave him the ability to be stealthy, to come and go as he pleased to be both unseen and unheard, he walked closely to the girl, he was able to smell a scent, a mixture of strawberries and cream, probably an enjoyable smell for someone else, but highly unpleasant to him.

He cocked his head to the side as he watched a flashlight appear into the girl's hand, while he just stood there rooted in spot with his arms folded across his chest. Watching to see what she was going to do next, that was when he felt something from her, a sudden scent of fear, a smile crept across his face, he would reach out and grab her, just a little taste, no one would miss her, but suddenly she had disappeared. Liam looked around, her scent was coming from up the stairs, " I'm coming to get you." He called out into the darkness, then his voice became nothing more than a board drawl, " There's no way you can stop me, no matter what you are."

[Angel Killer]

Angel watched as what reminded her of a serial killer who somehow always seemed to manage reaching their victims no matter the obsticle approached her ever so slowly. She tried to remain calm but the thing was so close to her, and she was beginning to feel an all too familiar warmth coming from the thing as it did so.

What she needed now was a diversion, someone else to take his attention away, and that is what she seemed to be looking at as her eyes focused on a mirror image of herself standing at the bottom of the stairs looking up at Liam who was standing dangerously close.

" Down here, you big oaf." The aspiration called up to Liam, in a very unnerving sort of giggle, one which she would never brave in this situation.

It did the trick, Liam had now turned around, it seemed his attention was on her second form down the stairs giving Angel time to look around her not really knowing how long the form would last.

Now, it seemed she had two options, try to run down the stairs past Liam, or jump. She looked down from what seemed like half of a brick wall, it was a long way down, and heights weren't exactly agreeable to a human.

You can make it. Just jump, you'll live.


She was unsure of the voice inside of her head, but it didn't seem to fail her thus far, if it wasn't for it after all she probably would have been dead at the hands of whatever that man was. So she took a deep breath and stood up on the edge of the wall. Keeping her eyes up at the ceiling she slowly walked off the ledge, feeling herself fall, slowly at first, but than quickly as she was drifting downwards towards the floor until finally she felt her feet touch the hard ground beneath her, whilst her other self was taunting Liam, very amusingly. Angel wondered what else she could do with this power though, she had always been so scared of it, and herself she didn't have a clue of what she could actually be accomplished if she learned to control it before.

[Liam]

He heard the giggle coming from behind him and turned around to view the owner, he then seen the girl standing there far too bravely for her own good, mocking him, calling him an oaf.

If there was one thing Liam took seriously, it was pride, his demon origins were important to him, and to be made a fool by some kid caused him great annoyance. These preoccupacions were what kept him busy while he let the real Angel slip past his grasps.

He went to reach for her, the aspiration of what he thought was real and touched nothing but air. Liam roared loudly, his eyes filled with a fireous rage. He had been looking forward to feeding.
