The Next Morning: With two changed sickles stabbing into the wrists of a mixed black haired woman. A Dark Tentacle kept her standing, and I asked her why.
"Why were you stalking me. . .?"
But then out of nowhere as I looked into the eyes of this woman, it was as if every ill emotion in my body came n went right to her, 'cause my body was disgusted by her.
"No. . .I take it back, I don't wanna hear you say a word"
"Instead, let me tell you a few things miss. Like how wen I was young I believed there was hope for everyone, well that's not the case anymore. Your people is actually the cause for me feeling like that. And now I'm here facing reality as I spent the last 16 to 17 years in a spell. . ."
Telling her this, a dark tentacle came from her shadow and with it's rubbery skin it started coming around her body and up to her mouth where it covered it wholly.
Emotions started bottling up and cracking out of this bottle I build a second ago, Mella had seriously hurt me, because her life outweighed my own, way too much.
Stepping in front of the woman as blood dropped down from her impaled wrists, flowing down like a river to the ground, bleeding her out, I came before her and said.
"So after some recollections"
"YOU CAN SAY I'M IN A PRETTY BAD MOOD. . ."
Her eyes trembled as our eyes met and the rubbery skin of the Dark Tenticle covered her nose, soffocating her.
"I lost everything, so I don't care who you are. . ."
"Though I'm a rash person, so I'll give you two options"
"Nod your head if you don't want to die by my hand"
"But if you do, then you'll lose all rights to your life"
"Because I'm both a Witch and a Bitch and I won't dare deign myself to a lowly Sorcerer such as yourself. . ."
Her life was placed into my palms and there's only two options, live in shackles as her kind has done to mine, or die with her worthless pride, that's the only way out.
"Now what will it be, you wanna live or die?"
And saying that. To explain how it came down to this is rather funny, so I ended up getting stalked this morning while I was buying supplies with the money I found in my room, but half an hour while shopping I found something unsettling, I was being stalked?
This girl who was stalking me was a Rank 2 Sorcerer.
And I can tell by the Magic Power surrounding her.
An if I didn't know any better, she's hunting me.
So after half a day of shopping and trying to lose her.
Now I'm confronting her, but she said my name.
Meaning she knew me, and from the tone she's close.
Yet I don't care, none of these people matter to me.
I only know two people right now.
Catherine and Rika.
And I'm okay with them.
Everyone else, fuck them, they're pests.
And looking at a pretty one in front of me, she was losing blood and she was losing it fast, and not looking away from her eyes, as she was shaking in fear.
She with a heavy airless gulp, nodded her head.
And in doing that, I put down my bags and grabbed two things out from one of the bags I had full of materials for a transmutation and location spells. So grabbing a pouch of purple grass and night shade graphites.
I took the two plants out and crushed them in my palm, using a mix of demonic energies, I infused them, and I twisted their very core beings, their natural essence.
Squeezing them of their essence, they let out a purple blood that and a hazy blue blood that radiated mist in my hand, and letting them leak, I let go of the plants.
And clapping my hands together, I rubbed the essence.
The Dark Tenticle around her neck and mouth started shifting and loostening up letting her breath, but as it then came undone and removed itself. . .I stepped in.
And grabbing her throat, I hit my palms on the front of her throat an slid them both back, reaching all around and touching my hands on the back of her neck.
Taking a step back after slathering purple and blue on her neck, I then clapped my hands together as I got ah distance away from her, "Enjïmor!" I said and the plant blood lit up, sinking into her skin leaving a transparent mark of ownership; that I can probably shape later?
Anyways, with this out of the way, I released my spell.
The Black Tenticles vanished in a haze of black and she fell to her knees, on the ground with two sickles still impaled in her arms, but snapping my fingers.
They vanished too. . .
And looking down at her as she pressed up against the ground, gasping for air, I spoke to the feeble Sorcerer.
"You chose life over your pride? Sorcerer"
"Honestly, I expected that pride to be your downfall?"
"But instead you gave your freedom to me for life?"
"Honestly, I'll never understand you sorcerers?"
"You consistently belittle us, but look at you?"
"A Sorcerer being enslaved by a Witch"
"Oh, how fate is a crule bitch"
Hearing me she flinched, picking up her head.
Looking at me with a heavy breathe, I looked down at her and as our eyes crossed, and I clicked my tounge.
"Ah how fate really is crule, I guess I'm not a witch no more than I am of the coven, though what I am is not of any concern, cause i still, severally dislike you all"
But as I said that, I misunderstood her look.
"I'm... Losing blood..."
"Oh. . ."
Stepping back over to her, I squatted down conjuring a sickle made from my shadow again, and holding it in my hands, I lightly cut my wrist, letting a little blood drip out.
"Here, the blood of a demonic being should either in theory. Heal, null, or infect and convert. Do you wanna have your hands amputated or test out my theory?"
I asked her with an ill tone, and she looked as if she saw through it, but looking me in the eyes, knowing that I had despised her existence and was curious to my own for the fact of Aster being, possibly abyssal in origin?
Her eyes didn't leave mine and I clicked my tongue.
"Very well, I'll adjust the energies in my body so this won't kill you, though it saddens me to see your not for the risk in a sense of experimentation, what a shame"
Shifting the energy in my body so mine doesn't shoot into her body through my blood. Which just means so I don't accidently transfer over a lethal amount to her.
Struggling to move her hands, she moved on a steps worth infront of her, and lifting her head as I moved up my hand, I turned my head as she went on to lick my wrist, taking that blood down her throat like a dhamp.
An erotic, brown skinned, horny, Dhampir.
But looking away and trying to not get anymore turned on than I already am getting, I said over to her. As she was sensually kicking the cut on my wrist.
"Just suck on it already...."
But then turning my head to her!
"Not in an erotic way! I just mean drink it already!"
And looking at me with a bazzar look on her face, she had me blushing with her looks, and looking away.
"Just. . .Ignore me and drink the damn blood"
Her face is seriously dangerous.
. . . . .
Minutes after, my wound stopped bleeding and it had not really worked out like how I thought it would, I was expecting it to work out like how vampires blood could heal, but lookin' at her, she was just blushin' an' in pain.
So abandoning her, I came back with a mini potion of healing not long after as I wasn't goin to just leave her in this abandoned area, what if a drunk man came?
Ma always said drunk human men were crazy rapey.
And I would feel bad even if she's an enemy that she got raped out here because I left her, so coming back imma just bring her along with me to leave this town.
The coven isn't accepting of outsiders but since I'm not actually Mella or a witch anymore, I guess I'm also, like, included as an outsider, also, I'm a Sorcerer like her?
A clanless, Demon Sorcerer.
Damn, that's a new one?
After she drank it and her wounds closed, not fully healed, but now we don't have to cut her hands off.
So I guess it was worth the gold piece I spent.
I then stood up after waiting for them to heal up.
And looking over to her, I asked her.
"Anyways, what's your name?"
And looking to me, her eyes darkened.
"Mari. . .Mari Natsu"
And hearing her, I looked up remembering something.
"Hm? I used to know a girl named Mari Dawnsworth?"
Looking at her, this girl and her looked nothing alike.
But also looking at her, Mari, I chuckled at her look.
She looked a bit hollow, I should enlighten her.
"Cheer up, if it makes you feel better, before I became this Demon known as Aster. If I can recall it correctly, I was a human girls, sorry but my memories still foggy"
"I used a spell earlier to remember my first year here"
"I'm currently around, the start, it's kicking in now?!"
"But anyways, so don't worry, I won't r@pe ya~"
And looking at me, her gaze darkened more...
I guess that didn't make her feel better?
Scratching my cheek anxiously, I turned away looking over down a ally, where I saw a silhouette, and looking at them, I looked back to her turning more serious.
"You're hands will heal on their own, now it's time to go, I need to return to Shevjires Grove also know as Sheep Rock, it's where my coven is, and I need to see them"
This widened her eyes, and then I said.
"I need to make sure the lot of them are still alive"
That's all I need, that Litch couldn't have kill them all.
Maybe she never even came and it didn't happen?
But at the same time, magic is tricky, she might've too.
"NOW, follow me. I'll protect you as a companion and expect for me to put my life in your hands as well, also don't ask many dumb questions. Talk to me if you like"
And nodding her head, I grinned and said to her.
"Also, you know how to act, don't be a fool. . .Mari"
Walking away, after a few steps I heard her follow behind me, now I just need to find out how to get to back Sheep Rock? Maybe a location spells will work?
But scratching my cheek, I couldn't find any silver chalk or Treant branches, so I might need to find a treant and also see if another town has the silver chalk.
Turning around, I then asked her.
"Actually hey, do you know where I can find the silver chalk, it's for formation magic, and the branch of a Treant, there like these living trees, really pesky?"
I asked her and she spoke back without spare.
"This town doesn't produce materials for formation magic, or any magic affinity materials, you'll have to head north towards the capital for that" Mari
"As for the Treants, you can find pre-mature ones in the forests around here, the older they get, the more they start heading south for some bazzar reason?" Mari
And hearing her out, I guess I know what to do now.
I'll head south, kill some and harvest some magic shards maybe even an orb and sell it in the next town.
But then again, the spell of tracking requires someone who was born there so I might have to hunt down the current Mella and nag a piece of her hair, or essence.
That'll make it easy to locate her birthplace, sheep Rock.
Then I can go there and see what happened to it.
"We're leaving town, where's the nearest gate?"
"The eastern gate is in district 1..." she mumbled.
"Good thing you stalked me to the slums then"
I said as we were already there,
And looking to her, I told her
"Now, Mari, were going on a trip down south, okay~"
And hearing me, she heavily gulped not uttering a word.
But that look in her eyes, said she was worried.
