I could see his eyes darken and I averted my gaze. His dangerous gaze was giving me shivers and from the corner of my eye , I saw him turn back and I let out a sigh of relief.
I could not phantom why, but all my nerves disappeared soon than I thought it would. I was not scared of death any longer. How fabulous.
A mere human; just because my powers haven't manifested yet, was not afraid of the monsters that everyone else feared.
I darted my head to the left and just in time as I did so, I heard a very loud growl which was not very far from us.
" Wha...what was that?". I asked the vampire on the white horse, and of course, no response. He only stopped moving while the other two turned back at him.
" it's here..". one of them spoke but he did not look frightened like I was.
When he said ' it's here ' I knew exactly what he meant. The Nox, it was here and was coming for us, no for me.
The most deadly creature, that apart from the vampires was heading right at us.
From where I was, I could feel the Earth vibrate as a result of the ferocious beast running at us.
"keep a close eye on her". the one on the white horse leapt away from his horse and flashed towards the direction where the sound came from.
I looked in that way he went and I held a very anxious look like on my face.
The beast was overly sensitive to sounds, that was why it knew that we were in it's terrain.
Grrrrrrrrrrrr - Another loud growl filled our ear drums and I grew goosebumps.
I badly wanted to know what was happening down there but it was impossible.
" Rawan, wait here - I want to go help the general.". The one that threatened me a while ago spoke before leaping from his horse and flashed towards the same direction.
He didn't wait for reply from Rawan.
" Rawan..." I called out to him and he turned at me. Thankfully, that rude brat mentioned his name before leaving. I planned to coax him on getting me out of this cage.
" what?". He asked fiercely and my spirit died down. This one was no gentle, even if his face looked so.
" uhm- nothing" . I replied and he turned back.
Grrrrrrrrr - Another loud growl!
What the hell was happening?
I flicked my head to the right and I saw the two vampires running back.
I opened my mouth to speak when I saw behind them, a huge animal after them. It was dark over there so I could not tell what it was. Just then it dawned on me that it was still the same beast they went to battle with.
My whole system was filled with adrenaline as the vampires mounted on their horses before the horses started galloping away with speed. The rate at which the horse that dragged her cage along moved seemed like it has already noticed the threatening presence of the beast. It was fast!
I darted my head backwards and saw the beast still after us and it was pretty close to the cage.
Staring closely at the beast made me realize that the beast had been hurt pretty badly. One of its three heads had being cut of, it's eye was stabbed and the sword looked it went really deep.
Just before I could realize what was going on, my cage stumbled against a huge rock and it flipped over, making me land and on its bars with force with the thorns piercing my skin.
" ouchhhhh " I whined out as I tried much not to move my body if not I would be causing my self more pain.
" get her out of there! " I could hear one of them shout at the others and I knew the ' her ' he was referring to was me.
My whole body ached as I remained unmoving. The thorns pierced pretty bad into my skin and tears were already clouding my eyes from the unbearable pain I was feeling right now. And the most frustrating part of it all is that my hands can't still get free from it's binds.
The chains round them got tangled and eventually stuck, giving me the inability to move my arms.
Immediately, I heard a loud, agonizing growl and it sure came from the Nox. That damn animal! It caused me all this. It must have being attacked.
Remaining still as ever, I closed my eyes waiting for the god-damned vampires to come get me out of this hell. Nothing of such happened. No vampire came to my rescue. But I heard one of them saying to get me out of here, maybe I didn't hear I right. They must be preoccupied by the ferocious Nox, that was why they forgot about me. My eyes were still closed through out this whole moment of waiting earnestly for who will come get me out of here.
Another growl.
Suddenly, I began to wish that I could find myself out of this place, out of this whole mess, free from this dangerous beings and that included the Nox. My prayers right there was for my powers to manifest themselves and get me out of here. Would it show itself when I die eventually? That I did not know and want. All I needed at the moment was to be free.
I heard the door to the cage open. I didn't know what happened next, opened my eyes and I gasped.
What the hell happened?
I looked round me and my eyes widened with surprise . WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED?
I was back home.
