The Dark

[Russell T.Baar]

Russell recovered from the blast and approached the creature, "Subtle Seph..." A terrible noise filled the air, he tried to ignore it. He loaded his weapon with one of the fairie shells.  

[Seph Jones]

Seph grinned in the satisfaction of shaving at Russell's patience, Seph loaded another explosive shell in to the launcher and aimed it at a group of hoarding smiling daemons.

Seph" This should be fun, lets see what you both have got?"

Seph sent another shell hurling towards some daemons sending them in the air.

He placed his launcher back and donned his dagger in anticipation for the battle ahead.  

[Russell T.Baar]

Russell looked frantically between the creatures and Seph, what ever they where they weren't attacking. Even those that had been blown away by the grenade regrouped without attacking, still they grinned. Russell looked at the creature beside them that looked like it was recovering. Russell drew back his whip and lashed at Sephs wrist, "Stay on task! They're decoys!" He commanded.  

[Seph Jones]

Seph observed the slithering creature beginning to animate, he ran with his dagger above his head and within feet of the massive monstrous body Seph leaped.

With a quick and harsh landing Seph impaled the creature with dagger and gripped to it tightly, he knew this was already a bad idea.  

[Russell T.Baar]

The creature raised its head making a near miraculous recovery, it shuffled then reared its head, Seph still in tow, it snapped and shrieked as he hung before its face. Russell tugged desperately on the whip but he wasn't strong enough and any attempts to freeze the creature failed. Thinking quickly he drew one of his blades and forced it up through the creatures jaw so far he felt his grind against Seph's nice; now the creature seemed to mellow...  

[Sheava Bloodvain]

At the same time Russell had plunged his blade into the creature's skull. Nevaeh pulled out one of the arrrows he had made the previous day. She landed two of them into the monster's belly. Chunks of the beast went flying everywhere when the arrow tips exploded. She knew it could probally still function even after all the hits it had taken.

She ran over to the two pulling the blades off her hips, ready to help if needed.  

[Russell T.Baar]

((Yours is the final blow Seph))  

[Seph Jones]

The creature still wriggling violently as it tried to regain its strength to fly and mount another attack.

Seph knew he did not have long to finish it, he slowly stood on his knees, trying to keep his balance.

Seph could see the creatures head before him.... with one more groan he balance himself on his feet, slightly crouched holding on to his embedded dagger.

Seph: "Game Over!"

Seph raised his right hand in the air whilst holding on with his left, with a seconds paused Seph lunged his raised fist down and through the skull of the beast.

A sudden thud shook the ground as the creature collapsed instantly, Seph slid a little but kept his footing as he pulled his lower arm out of the mucky hole he had left in the creature.

Seph groaned as he jumped down, he had broken something in his hand but smiled in pain as he was satisfied with the result.

Seph: " Well... Bigger they are, easier they fall"  

[Russell T.Baar]

Russell grimaced and with drew his own sword; the creatures blood was as black as its flesh and was thick like tar. To clean his blade Russell froze the coating then shattered it against a tree and the black goo crumbled away. Looking around the strange smiling creatures edged back into the shadows, the sounds they made now where that of weeping though the smiles remained.
"Everybody ok?" He asked looking around, the flair was beginning to fail and Seph and Nevaeh where turning back into gloomy shadows.  

[Sheava Bloodvain]

((Guys, I still have us enveloped in a light from a spell we used. It's not super bright but gives kind of a ghostly glow ))

Nevaeh was shaken up a bit, she had black splatters of the thick blood all over her. She wiped her face with the back of her hand and gave a feeble smile. "Yeah, I'm... I'm good." she managed to choke out, "You?"  

[Seph Jones]

Seph was clicking parts of his hand back into place, his concentration was broken as he notice a grin that had not disappeared in the distance.

Seph:"What is that?"

Seph said pointed into the distance but as soon as he points the grin replied with a distant chuckle and turned away... travelling in the direction of the compass' direction.  

[Russell T.Baar]

Russell narrowed his eyes, "I don't know, I think it was there before that thing showed up" He brushed himself off... "If you're going to get sidetracked though I'm out of here, where is it we have to next?" He looked over at Neveah, she seemed to be doing ok, he was starting to feel weird. "Seph are you feeling, alright?" Over exposure to the Dark he assumed.  

[Sheava Bloodvain]

Nevaeh felt they were on a wild goose chase, "Seph? How much longer?" She felt like a whining child but she was starting to feel tired and worn out.

She looked at Russel and shrugged. Making sure she had all of her things she stood ready for whatever was to come.  

[Seph Jones]

Seph's head was feeling light and quite incongruousness, but he knew what he was after would be worth it.

Seph: " I'm fine" He said sternly,

Speh picked up his items and started to pace towards the cave.  

[Lights Dark Hue]

Elena, a young girl about the age 14 or 15 stepped from the darkness, into darkness. Banished from the netherworld she called home for a crime she didn't commit.

Leaving a grochy stepfather and a laid-back alcholic mother, a world of darkness wouldnt be that bad would it?

She stepped into more darkness, only to here a soft crunch under her sneaker, she looked down. Grass? Was the darkness finally getting to her?

She snickered at her self and kept walking, only to face plant herself right into a large oak. She looked around, a forest? How is this possible. She looked to heer right and saw a sign laying amoungst some dried leaves.

"Welcome to Havencrest"

Maybe, possibly, this could be a place Elena could call home
