Darkened Hearts

darkened hearts 1a.
The appearence of the beautiful angel did not deceive her.

She wrenched her hand from it's chest along with the still hot pulsating heart. Pitch black, it still continued to beat in her hand.

She looked up at the face that had deceived so many. He looked at her shocked still able to move even without the heart in the chest. Then a shadow cast froze his features as he watched her fingers curl over the heart to squeeze the bloody mass.

'How???' barely made it past his lips when his body suddenly turned to ash and blew away in the wind.

She grinned in the moonshadow. Battle cries were heard as men and horses came pouring through the night at her.

'Bloody fools. They still believe that 'I'm' the devil. Well, if that's what they want...that's what they'll get.'

With the black blood still covering her, she unleashed her claws and ran screaming into the mass of armored bodies bearing down at her.

DH...1B
Darkened hearts..(1b)
Two hours later...
****
Her collection of hearts was getting larger.

The foggy mist thickened in the night air.

The men, the 'angel', sent after her were large in number but little in the tactical department.

Believing blindly that the 'angel' would protect them from the devil, they came in a full rush.

Their foolishness was their destruction, and fed the darkness within her.

Bloodsoaked, she piled the bodies at the edge of the forest line whence they came. The horses ran off deep into the forest jungle once she had pulled their riders off.

The general remained where he laid. He was pinned to the ground with the spears of his soldiers. Spread eagled. A spear in each limb. He was shuddering and was turning pale from the lack of blood which pooled the ground around him.

She used one razor sharp claw to remove the hardened armour from his chest. Grinning widely seeing the large man shudder trying to be brave, she sat down hard on his abdomen making his limbs go further down on each spear.

'Hmmm...don't know whether your just a sucker for pain or just plain stupid.' retracking one claw, she tapped her index finger to her lips in thought allowing her whole body to return to her normal human shape.

Bracing both hands on his chest, she leaned closer taking in his widened eyes. She knew she was completely covered in blood.

'What? They didn't tell you I was human? Or what one would pass for a human?' She got just inches away from his face.

'Oh, did they not tell you that those *beautiful* angels were the real demons with no pulse, no life and lived on blood?'
