THE FALLEN ONE
"Cain had fallen from the heavens and with him his blade which remains lodged in the earth unable to be drawn "A man with graying golden hair on his head ended as he closed the book he held in his hands and looked his listeners in the eye.
"Come on dad that can't be the end what about Lord Cain's revenge, his first love?" The girl who appeared to be the older of the two siblings asked excitedly.
"Yeah dad that can't be the end "The boy joined in, both siblings had silver hair which seemed to shine even in the candle lit room and their aqua blue eyes glistening with life as the man chuckled to himself .
"Sorry my little soldiers but this isn't a story book so I can't tell you what I don't know "he continued to laugh until a knock came from the door and a slim woman with silver hair stepped in she had golden pupils which stood out far more than her hair color "Is it that time again?". He asked with a solemn expression on his face
"Sorry little guys daddy has to go out for a while be good and go to bed now" she told them as their father slowly walked through the door after her .
" Alright Abel story times over you heard mom". The boy got up as he stared at the door for a moment .
" Vanessa aren't you curious what happens when dad leaves like that? "The boy as looked at the door one last time before being dragged away by his sister .
Outside their parents were Standing opposite each other the man had his arms crossed over his chest and the woman held a short sword in her hand with a serious expression on her face" it's getting harder to hide from the bounty hunters especially with your lapses becoming shorter" the woman said as her golden pupils started to glow and the man just nodded.
"I know" His eyes turned red and his hair grew longer as the middle part of his hair turned black , his finger nails trimmed into claws as his body stretched beyond his normal height.
" The curse of Cain, this brings me no pleasure my darling" her golden pupils were now fully glowing as she readied her stance staring at each other for a few seconds before they both vanished, clashing with each other in the middle " you've gotten stronger again I'll have to use some more power, don't die "
Her blade flashed as she slashed across his chest, he stepped back but at the expense of an arm " Tch I was too slow " she complained as he seemed to immediately regenerate the missing limb and give her a slight smirk before lashing out with his hand at hand at her, she deflected the blow with her blade but the aftershock had knock9her to the side like a ragdoll. She rolled on the ground before driving her Sword into the ground to regain balance ' Serves me right for marrying one of Cain's strongest worshipers' she thought when he had suddenly appeared in front of her.
She reflexively swung her sword only for it to be caught in his one of his hands and he picked her up with the other she struggled and clawed against his hands to no avail, in one last attempt to escape she hit his joint so he would bend his arm to bring her closer and placed a kiss on his lips before giving him a palm to the stomach " I really love you too much " she stated as he fell to his knees and coughed up some blood, he attempted to recover but was kicked in the side of his head causing his face to skid across the floor
" Far too much "The golden light from her pupil's had completely hidden the rest of her eyes and her silver hair had turned green "I haven't fought like this since they banished Cain from the god realm " she sighed as she casually blocked a strike from his claws and smacked him to the side " I don't want to hurt you James I really don't you chose a good god to serve of only he had been stronger" .
He roared as his muscles bulged and tore his clothes even more his claws turned black as his appearance became more beast like, a black aura erupting from his body as he crouched down preparing to lung at her, however she just smiled and said "Cain really was a strong god huh wonder what he's up to these days " Her golden aura started to leak out of her body as the two prepared to clash again .
Their swings collided causing an explosion that drowned the surroundings in light, The two now lay on the ground with the man having returned to normal with her lying on his chest " you know I may not have been in control but that was kinda fun " The man said in a voice almost Like a whisper and she just responded with a light nod of her.
" How long do you think we can hide this from the kids?" he asked now attempting to sit up .
" Not much longer their already 8 years old and very smart I can bet They're already curious ". The man just sighed as she helped him Up and took another glance at the destruction that he had caused .
" You're getting better at least the fight didn't last as long and look you can even move around now remember when it first happened" she laughed as they slowly walked back to their house "We'll have to move Again"
"Shame I actually liked this place " she liked at the now damaged landscape, she quickly waved her hand as the land started to fix itself and the man Gave her a look." What?! I'm still a goddess of nature I can't just leave the land like this , he just patted her head gently.
" I know "
