I sat on the ground trembling and folded my legs to my face level. I rocked back and forth with my legs folded. I heard foot steps coming from the door direction so I hastly walked towards the door and Locked it, trying my best to push the couch to block the entrance of the door, then I stood on the couch and leaned towards the door using one of my hands to support the door while the other to shut my mouth and prevent me from crying.
"Sabrina, you are safe now." I said, now appearing by her front. I don't know why I saved her, maybe it's because I pitied her. I had to convince my brothers that she was dead if not they were going to kill her. I bent down to her level and placed the wet strands of hair behind her ear. She was beautiful with her emerald eyes she looked like her mom. She was only thirteen and this was happening to her. I stood up straight and disappeared into thin air.
"Mom, mom." I screamed and ran downstairs after opening the room door, dad wasn't breathing anymore and my brothers they were all dead except mom, I heard her cough so I rushed to her and knelt close to her head placing it on my laps. She was in her own pool of blood, she was trying to say something so I leaned closer to her lips.
"Sabrina... She said and made a short pause, it was obvious she was in a lot of pain. Sabrina... She repeated my name and coughed out blood. Its your time." She said and opened my palm, placing the biggest responsibility on my head.
"No mom... I said and shook my head violently. you are going to survive... I said and gave her back the ackermanns demon slayer symbol, It was a ring that held a lot of responsibilities. Take it."
"No you have to... She said and coughed again but this time she spat blood from her mouth. If you don't demons will dwell in the land of avantical, pls take it. She said with a reassuring smile and slipped the ring into my finger. I love you and I'm always going to be there for you." With does few words she was already at sleep. My mom was a lady of few words. She was always harsh with her words but deep down I knew she loved me. I placed my hand on her eyes and prayed before removing it. I have to live here before they come for me but to where. Why didn't they come for me I thought.
"You foolish demon, how could you make such a great mistake now she has the demon slayer ring." I saw lother and his son loucesa but loucesa saw me but turned his head away. Just for a second I thought I was in trouble but no I wasn't. I looked at him and Wondered why he was helping me. He distracted his father lother until lother gave up on finding me. I tried to search for lother with my eyes but it seems like he had already left. I proceeded to stand and leave but something felt strange, the gentle cool breeze and sudden darkness, darker than it already was, that's when I knew he was behind me, With a swift move I grabbed my daggers from my pocket and raised it, getting ready to strike.
"Its that how you thank someone after saving you?' He said and walked closer, he was so close to my face but not close enough.
" why are you helping me?" I said and started shifting back, still in my attack position.
"Now demon slayer don't get to comfortqble around me... He said and smirked. I only saved you because the people of avantical are in great danger and only you can stop them but you lack the skills."
"So you are not going to kill me?" I stared at him trying to see if he was lying but he looked honest but one thing I learnt over the years was never let your guard down and also never trust demons.
"I'm not going to kill you but I might." He said and sat on a small stool.
"So you aren't going to kill me." I said and tried to look for a way to escape.
"I know you are trying to escape, but thats good because if they find you they will kill you." He said but this time held my hand which startled me. We disappeared unto thin air and next I found my self close to the ocean.
"You will go to my old friend oliver, he will take care of you." And with that short sentence I was no longer in avantical, where was I. I looked around trying to figure out where loucesa had taken me to. I could sence that where ever I was the creatures here were not surging with power. I started walking down a field of flowers. It was already dark, after walking for hours I decided to rest. Where was I going to, I had no food nor water and it was getting cold. As I was about to sit down on the ground I notice something, it was a sign board, it says welcome to vrindes land of the warrior's. I was in vrindes all along. I had heard of this place several times from my father. This place was located in the human world which means I was in the human world. It was known for their Savage men and women, it was the kingdoms of the ancient Vikings. I looked around and wondering where to go, that demon told me to go to his old friend oliver, but it was such a big kingdom, where was I going to start.
