Chapter 6 - Live fast, try not to die young (6)

The Nightwalker stood there with a triumphant smile on his face. You could see the excitement and superiority plastered all over his face. Even a bulge formed in his pants. He was the victor of this fight and all should see him and that was the last think Arianta saw as she lost conscious.

"Arianta come here my little angel. Come on, come here.", a woman with completely white skin said. She looked like Arianta. Had the same stunning body, but she was snow white with her hair being crystal blueish-white and her hair were long and wavy like crystal blueish-white waves. Her eyes were diamond like transparent. She was a tad smaller at 1, 95 meters.

"Mom there you are. I searched everywhere for you. You are to good at hide and seek.", the small Arianta said to her mother. She was happily jumping into the arms of her mother.

Around them was blackness. They were in a room, but weirdly that room moved. Arianta looked out sometimes but it was to dark to see anything. Maybe some trees, but that was the limit. She didnt know what was happening and her mother didn't want to tell her. Her dad didn't treat them well because he was a Nightwalker and they don't like crossbreed very much, but even for Arianta's dad, the mother of Arianta was just stunningly beautiful. Never before had he seen someone like her. So they lived in a big building till a moment ago, but now they where transported somewhere else and nobody wanted to talk to her. She didn't understand anything, that's why she just played around. Till her 20th birthday Arianta's life was blissful, but on that day everything changed.

"Mom why won't you tell me where we are going? Are we on a vacation?", she asked her mother. But Arianta's mother shook her head left and right with a sad look in her face.

"Your Dad is letting us visit my parents in the north. You always wanted to meet them right and it is your 20th birthday so I thought why not.", she smiled, but something seemed off. Arianta saw her mother's sad face, but didn't ask. Her mother's sad smile wasn't that rare.

They talked and played around for an hour, as outside a commotion started, some screams were heard and weapons collided. The door in the front of the room broke open, through the moonlight that came in you could see some benches on the sides and cargo that got transported with them. The goods were more then you needed for just a visit, which Arianta's mother claimed it to be.

" Milady Alischa we need to run. Bandits are attacking us.", a Nightwalker screamed, while grabbing Arianta's mother's arm, dragging her along.

After some struggling and trying to get back in, Alischa screamed, " Wait goddammit, Arianta is still inside. She was hiding as we played hide and seek. ", the second she ended her sentence, the carriage got blown to smithereens. Pieces were thrown tens of meters into the air. The blast threw everyone near the carriage away, only Alischa stood there, without reacting. She was hit by pieces of wood, but she didn't care. Some weak mumbling was heard and tears started to flow down her perfect face. The Nightwalker guard besides her, grabbed Alischa's arm again and brought her away. This time she didn't struggle, she didn't even react.

Around 50 meters away from the explosion inside the forest a damaged wooden box opened up and Arianta crawled out.

She had only light wounds, but hit her head pretty hard and went unconscious because of it. " Awww my head hurts. What happened? Where am I?", She thought while walking faster and faster to the only light source inside that dark forest. She leant on the trees and moved slowly, feeling the pain for trying to run so fast at first. She moved to the light while hear mind tortured her. She didn't know what happened to her Mom and that made her almost break mentally .

" MOOOOOMMMM, MOOOOM WHERE ARE YOU. PLEase answer me...", Arianta's voice became weaker and weaker till she reached the place where the rests of the carriage was. Everything was burning, the bodies, the carriage and the nearby trees. The burned corpses weren't even in one piece. On one leg she tripped over, while walking backwards after seeing such a scene. For a small child like her, that was like a 8 or 9 year old human girl, everything went upside down so suddenly, was to hard. She grew up in a mansion, not many hardships till this day only with her father a little bit. Now she sees a world of fire and carnage. Her mind almost shut down completely.

After falling down she jumped up and started to walk backwards again because she heard some people coming closer. She run and run without stopping to wail.

" That must have been the people that attacked and killed mother. ", she thought while clenching her fist together till they bled. She run till she couldn't anymore and after hours she saw a hole in the ground perfectly for her. She went in it and just lied there. She cried silently holding her mouth closed till she fell asleep.

Arianta's eyes opened up, tears flowing down uncontrollably.

"That nightmare again. Why did I remember it. 25 years ago now it seems. Such a long time, but it still hurts, mother.", Arianta thought, while her tears flew down her face even stronger.

She lied there in a hay bed with some pelts as blankets. Around her where a table, 6 chairs and a fireplace to cook, but nothing more. Still enough to survive. Suddenly a hand appeared, cleaning her tears away.

Arianta jumped up and put her guard up. She remembered losing to the Nightwalker and knew her new fate, but that hand felt warm and caring almost like a loving mother's hand that tries to wash the pain away, by touching the cheek of her child lovingly.

Looking to her left she saw a beautiful Elven female. She had long golden hair tied into a ponytail that went down to her bottom. In her blond hair, some streaks of green were seen. Her eye color was golden with a little hint of red. Her skin was beautifully rosy white. She had well-shaped breast that fit perfectly into a hand and her bottom was full, but not too big. She was more the athletic beauty.

" Don't be scared. You are safe. My name is Schajana and I looked after you for the last four days.", the Elven female called Schajana said, while smiling beautifully. But her smile seemed weird, because canines where showing a bit.

" Where am I? Why are you treating me so good?", Arianta asked still confused about the situation.

A light snicker left Schajana as she started to tell her, what happened the second she lost her conscious.
