I'm Ember and I never believed in the supernatural, despite growing up surrounded by mysticism and legends, the idea of creatures from hell seemed very stupid to me, I even believed that: that my father went with an Indian from the puddle, or supposed Ciguapa , a woman with dark skin , extremely long hair and backwards feet and with the strange ability to seduce men , was the most creative way of saying that she left us for another woman . Until one night... The barking of my paw, my dog a great Doberman resounded on the walls like the bells in a church, a rotten and metallic stench hit my nose, I tried to make him shut up, or I would wake up my mother and grandmother, who for some reason, when I was there, would have claimed to be a witch, I went downstairs and the stench was getting more and more, I tried to get my paw out of the house and I was shocked to see my mother impaled on the branch of a tree and a creature genomorphic, so black that it is difficult to distinguish between that and the night, with disproportionately long arms and legs, opening my grandmother's stomach while babbling nonsense, the beast turned its head almost completely and let me see its skeletal face and His eyes were bleeding, he moved his jaw a couple of times and without changing his expression he told me, with a double intonation in his voice. Beast: I don't know whether to kill you now or let the master do it... If I kill you I could send what would happen, but if I kill you they kill me, believe me I don't want to rip your head off and take all your blood but you destiny is not to die in my hands... I wanted to run but my legs did not respond, they did not respond, that beast slowly approached while its skeletal body wriggled, its bloodthirsty eyes watched me as if it were devouring me, in that little leg got hooked and with a thunderous growl made the beast stop, more large, stronger, large amounts of smoke came out of his nose and mouth, a smell of sulfur overshadowed the thick smell of blood, everything around me began to heat up, and the smell of sulfur became stronger and stronger, even preventing me from breathe. The beast began to retrace her steps, turned its head to its side and smiling said. Beast: aaaah Asaroth son of Cerberus, I was wondering when you were going to attack me, I thought that at least you would allow me to get close to her, you can fool a man, but not a demon like me, so relax, now he doesn't have to die. Then he jumped at me with his hands outstretched as if to catch me and his big mouth full of fangs are so open that he could devour me right away, but he just vanished in a cloud of black dust, my body was shaking, I couldn't even understand what was happening. , suddenly everything went dark and I lost consciousness . When I woke up I was still in the same place, it wasn't a dream or an illusion, my grandmother lay disemboweled on the ground, my mother or what was left of her was still on the same branch still dripping blood and my dog or well what I thought was my The dog had its back to me looking outside the house, I didn't even try not to vomit, and when I raised my face I knew that those things were only the beginning.
