the broken blade piece fell harmlessly to my feet as I gave an annoyed look to Marie.
I pushed the remaining blade out of her hand before looking around, this was a far cry from her mansion a thousand years ago.
"what happened to your house?"(syn)
"taken over by the bitch herself."(Marie) grumbled.
"bitch herself?"(syn)
Marie looked even more frustrated as her face was hiding anger beneath its forced calm surface.
"the one they call shadow queen, I call her shadow slut since she's half succubus."(Marie)
so Amira really was behind this, I thought Raya might've lied, but she really didn't.
"so this shadow slut, how strong is she?"(syn)
Marie laughed before realizing I was serious and adopted a holy hell expression.
"way too strong for you to handle."(Marie)
"fine then I'll just get stronger and I won't go alone, I will kill that bitch."(syn)
Marie nodded in agreed sentiment, we both hated her.
"alright, Raya can go along, I'm not helping you though, everything is on you."(Marie)
"MOM!"(Raya)
she eye rolled and sighed, giving her daughter a what now look.
"you would've already gone with or without my approval."(Marie)
she might actually know her kid, I just assumed she only had kids for some weird power rule for vampires.
you learn something new every day, I guess.
Marie nodded off in the direction of some tents, Raya dragging me in that direction soon after.
she chose one seemingly at random and the inside blew me away, the outside was a large white canvas tent like structure while the inside looked like a tiny rich kids room, what the fuck?
"so, you're going after queen bitch?"(Raya)
"not at this moment but eventually, yes."(syn)
"you'd need an army."(Raya)
"no, I know exactly what you're going to suggest and the answer is no, hell no!"(syn)
"why are you so against it?"(Raya)
"I'm not doing this."(syn)
I just turned and walked from the tent, burying my feelings a bit deeper as I choked back tears, memories I'd hoped to be long forgotten surfacing.
Luan wasn't the first person I'd had kids with, she was the only one who'd survived.
those memories were haunting, the gore and the pain, I'd wanted to forget all of it.
but it didn't work that way, never did for me.
Raya tried to talk to me again but I shut it down, walking away as I couldn't get the memories from my mind, I was so stupid back then, I believed what my system voice told me, the degenerate it still was all that time ago, I believed it, I was so naive, so stupid!
I'd kept walking, creating distance from the camp as I found my way eventually to a large hill over looking it, a sniper tower right behind me, I didn't care about them, right now all I could focus on was my own past failure.
and in the end of that failure I couldn't even keep my own kids alive, I felt so worthless there for a while, but I can't be dwelling on that right now, depression later death and revenge now, that shadow bitch needed some payback shoved up her overused ass.

Amira pov...
"WHAT?!!"(Amira)
"he's still alive ma'am!"(demon) responded shakily.
a rage inside me exploded, filling my entire body like a raging tsunami, it shouldn't have been possible!
"he's harder to kill than cockroaches."(shadow monarch) the echoed voice responded.
"you didn't keep your end of the deal!"(Amira)
"don't you dare back out now!"(shadow monarch)
I threw my chalice through the head of the worthless demon in front of me, killing the useless schmuck instantly.
the decor of the room was next, in a fit of rage i tore at it, destroying whatever I could get my hands on, the room was utterly chaotic and destroyed by the time i was done.
"feel better?"(shadow monarch)
"much."(Amira) I responded, regaining a calm composure before sitting on the bone throne I had made, had to look evil somehow, it was hard to do as a half succubus, I looked harmless and fuckable, damned fools wouldn't know power if I used it to tear off their nuts!
"he's the only threat to you, and it seems he's evolved, his power now exactly what he needs to destroy us, either he's lucky or is being helped along."(shadow monarch)
"he has the first system, THE first."(Amira)
the demon didn't respond as I sat there, my boredom growing as this conversation has led exactly nowhere.
I called in another demon, ordering them to send the second strongest army we have to search for and destroy Syn, I won't risk my best army, not yet.

only other evole in existence pov....
my feet moved faster and faster as I kept looking over my shoulder, those damn demons wouldn't leave me alone!
I'd gotten a tip about a neutral vampire camp up north and my goal was to head there, hoping to either join or be turned, demons left vampires alone most of the time or were friendly towards them.
and all I wanted was peace, these bastards need to get off my ass!
turning and looking again a strand kf my gray hair blocked my view as I lost my focus and balance, tripping over a rock and stumbling on the forest floor hard, pain shooting through my left shoulder, fuck!
the camp was in view as I stood and hobbled over, going as fast as I could, the sound of something whooshing overhead and exploding, an angry looking person with glowing eyes now in front of me and blocking my way to the camp, thing is he didn't even care about me, it was like I wasn't even there.
he vanished from view, sounds of bone breaking and pained acreams coming from behind now, fearfully turning and looking that same person was now brutally beating the demons, killing them with his bare hands alone.
now was the time to run!
