General POV
At night where 2 moons can be seen above, one shine through the night and another behind 5 times bigger than the first one, but broken from the inside.
A band of 30 ruthless bandits made their way through the dense forest, their wagon creaking under the weight of its grim cargo. Inside the 2 iron-barred carriage were women, chained and shackled, their faces worn from fear and fatigue.
"Move it, you fuck kid!"
One of the bandits shouts at a kid who is
Trailing behind the carriage, in a single file with other children, barely able to keep pace, their hands bound together by thick ropes with minor bruises on them.
"Tch, we have been walking through this damn forest like for 3 hours and we are still not close to it! I swear, we better get some good money after selling them to our boss client at the black market."
While he was frustrated and thinking about traveling through the dense forest the bandit felt a tap on his shoulder and look to see a humanoid cat .
"What's with the long face Rok? I know we've been traveling through this forest a long time, but look on the bright side. Once we arrive and sell them to the client, we can eat good food, drink alcohol and maybe get to sleep with beautiful women!"
"Look mate, I know you try to make the mood good but it's just that we've been traveling for 2 weeks ever since we raid that village, of taking their resources, kill all the men and capture the women and children.
We even got our travel delayed because of that damn Guild sending their mercenaries since our boss is wanted for the crimes he did."
The man known as Rok glance at their boss who is a green orc, 2.5 meters tall wearing metal armor. He wielded a big axe with both hands on guard and beside him is a hourse carrying big bags of coins were from the village they raided.
The orc looks up to the night sky for a few seconds, then the leader of the bandits stops , his voice low and rough. "We'll stop here for the night," he called out to his crew, gesturing to a clearing just off the road. "Set up camp. We move at dawn."
The bandits quickly went about their tasks, some preparing a fire, others checking their weapons or drinking from battered flasks.
The bandit leader made a group total of 7 to hunt down some animals for food tonight.
The Orc goes to sit on a corner and starts sharpening his big axe.
---------------------------------------
20 minutes has passed after setting up the camp, at the other of it,one of the men, a scruffy bandit with a scared cheek, grumbled as he stood up from his spot by the fire. "I need to take a piss," he says to the other bandits, heading into the thick underbrush nearby.
As he moved deeper into the shadows, the air grew colder, and the sounds of the campfire behind him faded. He found a secluded spot, unbuckling his belt ready to pee , until he heard a big rustling sound in the bushes.
He froze, instinctively drawing a jagged knife from his side. His heart pounded thinking it's a predator, but when he turned around fast, he saw nothing more than a small, white rabbit with red eyes staring up at him from the shadows.
"Heh, just a stupid rabbit," the bandit chuckled to himself, relaxing. Then the bandit thought of killing this animal and have some rabbit meat for dinner.
"Might as well have something fresh for myself tonight than eating stale bread to wait for the hunting group to bring us meat."
But as he slowly took a step toward the rabbit, he didn't notice the eyes watching him from the deeper darkness of the forest.
A soft growl broke the silence. Then another.
The bandit stopped, his instincts kicking in too late. From the shadows emerged two massive wolves, each the size of a horse. One was as black as the night itself, its fur blending into the shadows, while the other was a pure white as snow, their eyes glowing with an eerie intelligence. They moved silently, their paws leaving no trace on the forest floor.
The wolf with white fur moved closer that it nose is close of the bandit face, he strikes at the wolf at it's neck.
The bandit thinks a surprise attack will kill it, but in reality he heard a loud clancking sound of metal, he looks to see the blade he was using is now shattered into pieces.
He looks at the white wolf crimson eyes and his body is shaking with so much fear he pissed his pants.
The white wolf bites his arm causes the bandit to scream in pain, but for a short time because the black hair wolf runs fast and bites the neck sinking it's fangs to his throat.
The bandit gurgles as blood slowly gushes out, he's trying to understand why it's happening to him, before his vision turns black he saw a beautiful woman wearing light, dark armor that clung to her body walking towards him.
[Image here: Aka this is all I can find for her]
She looked at him with cold eyes she coffs and says one word.
"Pathetic."
---------------------
More minutes passed, and back at the camp, the other bandits grew restless. One of them, a burly man with a scar running down his cheek, looked over his shoulder toward the forest. "What's takin' the hunting group so long@?" he questionly shouted.
"Probably fell asleep," another bandit joked, tossing a twig into the fire they'd built.
The orc bandit leader narrowed his eyes, his thick fingers tapping the handle of his axe. "You and Rok find him," he ordered.
The burly bandit nodded reluctantly, grabbing a torch and trudging off into the bushes while Rok grabs his sword incase of any predator tries to attack them.
As they neared the last spot where the hunting group they went, the faint smell of blood reached their nose feeling unease.
When Rok and the burly man reach where the smell coming from, their skin turns pale and frozen in fear of what they're seeing.
The hunting group that were task by their leader are now dead.
3 men lay on the ground with their limbs torn apart, 1 dead man is shown being hang with his own guts as rope, 1 man was cut in half and the other one has his lower half crushed and there was big round prints on the dirt floor.
Rok was completely shaken of what he is seeing and the burly man takes a few steps back as he was about to return camp not wanting to stay any longer. But something fell and hits him, the burly man was on the floor in a daze, he looks to see another body part of the hunting group with his neck slit open, broken jaw, teeth missing and eyes guaged is now top of him.
"AAHHH!"
Rok got the dead body away and he helps the burly man who is screaming to get up.
"Keep your damn voice down, we don't know
the ones who murdered them is close by and will hear you.
We need to go back to the camp and report this to the leader so we-!"
"AAAAHHHHHHH!!!"
They heard a blood curdling scream and it's coming from their camp, they run towards there.
-------------------------------
(Back at camp)
"AAAAAHHHH IT HURTSSS!!"
A man with gaping teeth was on guard duty to make sure the women and children won't escape.
He saw one kid was trying to take the keys from his pocket but grabbed his hand he was about to beat him until he felt something wrapped around both of his ankles.
He is screaming because of the black tendrils wrap around his ankles are crushing them while being dragged to the dark corners of the forest.
"SOMEONE HELLLPP AAAAAHHH!!"
The ork bandit leader ordered two men to help him, they grabbed their comrade's hands trying to pull away the black tendrils.
But it was no use as it forcefully pulled the bandit more that cause them to lose their grip and is now being dragged to the dark corners and his scream becomes silent.
The fire crackled as the bandits huddled together, eyes wide with terror. After the scream of their comrade, now they were left with the horrifying knowledge that something—or someone—was hunting them. The bandit leader stood tall, his thick fingers gripping the handle of his massive axe, scanning the dark trees.
A low rumble of thunder echoed through the sky, causing the remaining bandits to look up in fear. They barely noticed the wind picking up until it was too late.
Suddenly, from the treetops, a towering figure emerged— a 6 meter tall large owl-like creature with orange feathers and a white mask-like skull. It has large wings, two sets of talons and human-like teeth.
its mask glinting in the faint moonlight as its eyes glowed with an unnatural yellow light. It let out a bone-chilling roar, and the bandits fell to their knees, paralyzed with fear.
The bandit leader's eye narrowed. "What in the gods' name is that?!"
Without warning, a bolt of purple lightning crackled from the night sky, slamming into the ground where one of the bandits stood. The man didn't even have time to scream—his body convulsed and burned under the electric fury of the strike, his flesh smoking as he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
The rest of the bandits screamed in terror, scattering in different directions, but they weren't fast enough. The creature took to the air with a powerful beat of its wings, soaring above them with terrifying speed. Lightning crackled again, striking another unfortunate bandit and reducing him to ash.
At the center of the chaos, s woman emerged from the shadows. Her dark armor gleamed under the moonlight, the cold gaze in her blue eyes unwavering. She makes a hand sign, her black hair flowing in the wind as something is being summoned .
"Toad."
From the ground, a massive shape materialized—a colossal frog, its green skin glistening in the dim light. It towered over the other bandits, its huge eyes locking onto them with cold indifference. Before anyone could react, its long, slimy tongue shot out with incredible speed, wrapping around one of the men who had tried to flee.
The bandit screamed, thrashing his blade wildly as the frog's tongue tightened around him but it's not taking any damage. His terrified cries pierced the night air as he was pulled toward the gaping maw of the creature. "Help! Help me!" he screamed, but his comrades could only watch in horror as the giany frog chopping down his waist , he screams in agony feeling his lower half getting crushed, but it later soon be silenced as the frog's jaws opens one last time and snapped them shut then swallows as the screams of pain can be heared no more.
The giant frog looks at the other scared bandits in front it licking it's lips for more bandits to eat.
The bandits were in full panic now, their once-bold confidence shattered by the sight of their comrades being struck down one by one.
"Please Noo- GAAAHHH!!!!"
"HAVE MER-RAAHH!!"
"PLEASE I CAN'T DIE LIKE THIS!:
"I WANT TO LWRAAHHH!"
One by one the bandits are getting slaughtered by those creatures that are controlled by an unknown enemy.
The Ork bandit leader roared in anger, raising his axe high. "You cowards! Fight back! It's just one woman and those beasts!" He charged at this female warrior, his massive footsteps thundering against the earth.
The woman was calm, her focus unshaken. As the ork barreled toward her, she took out dual black blades now coated with blueish like flames.
[Image here]
The ork swung his axe down with all his might but she deflect it with her right blade and stumbled back. the bandit leader is stunned of this because he use his full strength on that attack and it was deflected by this woman who is smaller than him?
While he was distracted the female warrior dashes and sends multiple slashes at him with incredible speed.
The bandit leader noticed that his armor is getting damaged and feel all these attacks on his body and hurts badly. In his experience he never face against someone who is this fast and strong.
She kicked into the orc's stomach with crushing force. He staggerd back, clutching his stomach as he vomit mouthful of blood and some are trickling from the corners of his mouth. His eyes widened in shock as he realized he was outmatched.
"Die Bitch!"
A bandit was behind the female warrior with his sword as he sends a surprise attack.
"wait!"
*CLANK*
The bandit's blade completely shatters when it made impact on her with all his strength and yet it shows no damage on her skin.
*SHNK*
*SHNK*
*SHNK*
*SHNK*
*SHNK*
*SHNK*
"Wh?-"
Before the bandit who attacked the female warrior speak any further his entire slowly falls off and turned into bloody chunks.
Everyone was shocked and scared what they saw in front of them.
"You... you're a monster!" the orc snarled, backing away.
The woman looks at the Ork with not much emotions, she walks and says this.
"Me, am I actually a monster?" , her voice audible to the orc leader. "Is killing those who kill the innocent any different than the blood they spill, isn't the same how a soldier kill another soldier from other faction during war called them monsters?"
She gets closer to the orc bandit leader as he keeps stepping back but she continues
Or is it only monstrous when someone turns the tables on you?"
The ork's eyes widened, his face contorted with fear and rage, as he realized her words cut as deep as any blade.
"Besides, I wanted your head so I can collect 10,000 crowns for turning it to the guild, do you have any last words."
"YOU Bi-"
*SHINK*
In a blink of an eye the female warrior cut off his head before he finish his words, his body falls down leaving the remaining bandits, now leaderless and in a state of complete panic, scrambled to escape. But it was too late. It doesn't stop there she makes another hand sign and another creature emerged from the shadow a giant, whit serpentine creature, it is like a nightmare given for its giant form. Its fangs glistened with venom as it coiled behind behind her.
"You can eat as much as you want Orochi."
The giant snake nodded as it and along with the Giant frog, owl and 2 big wolves continue the slaughter.
The creatures are relentless, killing or eating them one by one as they tried to flee into the dark forest.
In a matter of minutes, the once-chaotic camp had fallen into a haunting silence. The air was thick with the smell of blood and burnt flesh, and the only sounds were the soft crackle of the fire and the faint rustling of the leaves in the wind.
The female warrior stood amidst the carnage, her breathing steady, her gaze cold. She spared a glance at the women and children still shackled in the carriage cage. They stared at her with wide, fearful eyes, unsure if she was their savior or another threat. She walked slowly toward the cage, the creatures melting back into the shadows as she approached.
With a swift motion, she broke the lock on the cage with her hand. "You're free," she said simply.
The women hesitated for a moment before they slowly began to step out of the cage, their shackles clinking as they moved. The children followed, their small faces etched with confusion and fear.
The female warrior snaps her fingers as multiple black tendrils shot out of her shadow and break their shackles so they can move freely and the black tendrils return to her.
One of the women looked up at the warrior, her voice trembling. "Who... who are you?"
She glanced at her for a moment, but gave her an answer . "Just someone here collecting a bounty of this dead bandit leader," she replied quietly, turning her back on them.
Without another word, she put the head in a bag and began to sink into the shadow, leaving the freed captives behind. They stared after her, their lives forever changed by the silent, relentless warrior who had appeared from the darkness.
