Chereads / Wolf-Blood / Chapter 19 - Battle of the Inhuman

Chapter 19 - Battle of the Inhuman

3 YEARS LATER

The sky filled with ash,a Raven clan city burnt to the ground and its people with it.

As I lead the charge towards the Fortresses Rokenslad.A giant accumulation of stone and power.As I sprint through the cracked stone path,blood filled dirt and peices of people infront of me.My ears ringing from the catapults landing all around me.

Hundreds of slicing noises fill the air as dots of fire fill the ash sky.Enflamed arrows,To me they are only such a nuisance,a delay to their doom by axe.

TCH!!TCH!!TCH!!TCH!!TCH!!TCH!!TCH!!TCH!!

The arrows dig deep into my body,All im wearing is a fur cloak of a wolf,those same wolves I met long ago who changed my fate.

All 4 etched and sewed together into a monstrous look and size.Blood soaked into the black fur of it.

Bjorn-RAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

The thundering of my footsteps fills the air,as they raise the draw bridge.Arrows and spears flying from everywhere.

With a single leap I cross the 40 foot gap,flying over the ditch of snakes.

Midair I bring my axe over my head,Striking the wooden gate with everything I have.

!BOOOOM!

It explodes into thousands of splinters as I fly through the hole in it.A large dust cloud forms itself around me as I land.Through the smoke I count the men I can see.

64men crowd the courtyard.

Bjorn-ROOAAAAAAAAAA!!

As I explode out the dust And begin hacking men apart.

The last 3 years fill my mind as this battle does not take my focus.The dozens of forced transformations,the innocents I've killed.It's weighing on me,I cant escape the sight of all those people I have murdered,thousands of innocents.Their life-les remains being thrown to a pile and burned to ash.The stares of children who fear death.

The entire Storm Bear army knows what I truly am,and they appreciate to have me by their side because there could be other way.I had saved them all from certain death more than once.Costing me my humanity.In return they have agreed to keep my true nature a secret from all those who mean unwell.

Bjorn-hah...hah...hah...hah...

As i strike the last man down he pleads for his life,But it was over as soon as the battle started.My body drenched and dripping profusely with blood.I don't know which is mine and which isn't.

CLUNK...CLUNK...CLUNK...CLUNK...CLUNK

I turn around to see a heavily armored man almost matching me in size,a black cape battering in the wind,his silver armor making him apear like an angel in the ash background.His Silver greatsword the size of a man.

Lunar Knight Aziel-I know what you are,The size,power,speed,injuries.No man can have that...No true man.

Pheraphs he's right.

!Woosh!

I lunge at him bringing my axe down on what should have been his head.Instead our weapons clash together sparks and chunks of metal fly off our weapons.

He could be a problem if im not careful.

Bjorn-Then you should know the silver isn't for me.

Aziel-It's not,Its for your other more...Monstrous side.

He kicks me back but I swing my axe as it roars through the air it slams into his side,He stumbles to the side before chanting something.His weapon begins to glow slightly pale.

Bjorn-Pathetic!

He lunges at me tearing up the ground as his sword cuts through the air shimmering like the moon.

I dodge the flury of attacks as they fly past my head,!Boom! I punch the side of his helmet making a big dent it,as he falls to his knee I raise my axe to kill him but he leg swipes me and rolls away.Springing to the air as he gets back into guard.

I explode off the ground on all four limbs like a dog into the air.A shockwave shaking the ground beneath me.

Bjorn-RAAAAAAAAAAAA!

!!DIIING!!

Our weapons clash once again annoyingly.A

shockwave comes from his sword.Knocking my weapon back.

He lunges at me,his attack is too predictable as I had expected him to use it.The aura he applied to his sword made it explode like a canon when the user wanted it to.

Just as he lunged I brought out my Iron dagger.Driving into his chest,driving him to a wall and staking him to it.

Bjorn-I've heard the Raven clan had hired mutants,The silver hand to destroy me.You guys do live up to your title.The enemies of the Werewolves.

Aziel-So then you should know it's gonna take more than this to kill me.*he rips the dagger out of his chest,blackblood pouring out the hole in his armor*

He gets back into stance rushing at me.

Aziel-RAAAAAAA!

!BOOOOM!

Im sent flying across the court yard.As an excruciating pain explodes in the side of my head.

The world seems to have warped around because all my senses are dulled greatly.

I look around to see another knight in silver armor.An Inhuman Hammer in his hands.The giant block of silver the size of a man.

He begins running at me the ground quaking beneath his weight.He leaps up into the air so high it would be unnatural for any man of his size.Mutant or not.

!BOOOOM!

The attack rips my leg and a part of my abdomen off.The pain so great I fall unconscious for a second.I awake to see a sword coming down on me.

NOOOOOO I refuse this!!

I force my body out the way.Springing onto my right leg.I begin jumping at him on one leg.

BJORN-DAMM YOUUUUU I'LL KILL FOR THIS!!

I begin transforming my leg growing back rapidly,muscles,bones, everything of my body shifting painfully into the Beast.

Lunar Knight Ladiel-You shall Know Death Today!

I leap at him swinging my arms wildy as he gets thrashed around.I hear the other Knight running upon me.I spin so rapidly the air seemed to have spun around me for a second creating a tempest that sped up my attack.

!WOOOSH!

My claws explode on impact of the silver armor.But I continue attacking my bones cracking and fixing in my arms.I begin to tear chunks off the armor.He plunges his sword into my stomach.

THE BEAST-HRAAAAAA!

Biting down on his shoulder I rip out a chunk of flesh and silver.The Silver burning through my body as if were molten lava.

Lunar Knight Aziel-You can never hole to escape unharmed from this battle!HAHAHAHA!

!BOOOM!

The hammer strikes my back Ripping a chunk out of it.Revealing my spine and ribs.

As the sword melts through my body it falls to the ground.My stomach cut apart as Blood and my guts fall out.

I cant hold it back anymore!I just want to KILLLLLLLLLLL!

THE BEAST-HOUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Beast begins to thrash around the men in silver.It's arm's breaking and fixing rapidly with each hit.Chunks from both sides flying everywhere across the courtyard.

The soldier's who gathered to aid.Frozen in their tracks at a such a monstrous battle.They quiver in their boots as the blows rattle their bones.

The Beast grabs Aziel ripping him in two as Ladiel strikes it with his hammer breaking every bone in its body.

The force of the blow creating a shockwave.

As The Beast falls to the ground lifeless.Ladiel rushes over to Aziel whom is dead his insides pouring out of him.

Ladiel-Go My brother,To where we bathe in light.

He gets up turning to the beast.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can you not take it anymore.I thought you loved this,found ecstasy within the pain and anger.That We feel.

Yet here you are fading away like a stain of dirt.Have you had enough.do your anger not span this far into Rage.Will we bite it at the hand of such pathetic Individuals.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ladiel-Your still not dead.I can still hear that heart beat for more violence.*Raising hammer*So it shall be you life.

As the Hammer of Doom decends upon The Beast.It rises swinging its arm through the silver armor.

Ladiel-hrgh...

The Beast hold his heart through.In the palm of his hand crushing it.

It then turns to the hundreds of men gathered around.A rage so intense it could be felt all over the battle field.

As the wounds begin to open more instead of healing.As if it was being ate away by the injuries.

It lunges at them roaring wildy as it flys through the air.

As THE BEAST tears through men like starving dog on a peice of meat.

Afterall most men are powerless against a werewolf.Those who do manage to best one in combat are are beyond human.

After a several minutes all the men are reduced to a pile of guts and lake of blood.

THE BEAST stands amoung them panting,still itching for more battle.But there is no more,only a unsettling silence left in the air as a bloodmist plagues the ground.

After a few moments of nothing,THE BEAST begins to shift back to human shrinking and groaning.The wounds not going away.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I find myself on my knees,staring at the ground as some blood flows out my wounds.The wounds not closing my ribs and spine exposed.By stomach being held together by my arm.The cloak still on my back,otherwise im completely naked.As I sit in a lake of blood,hundreds of men torn apart.The smell of them making me hunger for more.But my body tells me to just lay down and die.

Still I get up on my feet limping slowly as my leg barely moves.I approach the drawbridge lever.But my legs begin shaking as I struggle to just stand.

Pulling the lever.The drawbridge goes down slowly.

Thud!!

I fall to my back.Just weezing for air as My wounds continue spilling blood.I hear the sounds of the men approaching,comotion rising as men shout and gasp and exclaim at the sight I've left them.

Gornan-Oi Look over there Bjorn's down!

I cant move,It feels as if my body is being sunk into a water.

I don't want to die...
