Hazel Evertwigh
I thought my life was going to end as Whisper's grip on my neck tightened. I gasped for air but couldn't get even a single breath in, my legs slowly became numb and I could feel the blood in my brain had stopped circulating. My vision slowly became blurry as I watched Eden desperately attack whisper with tears flooding his face. "LET HER GO DAMMIT!!" Eden yelled, his voice cracked with rage and desperation, my body became numb and then it all went black.

As I looked upon Hazel's as Whisper held her up motionless body, furry overcame me. I let out a barrage of slashes with my daggers, yet none of them had any effect on him, "YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS!" I yelled out in desperation. Whisper turned his to me and burst into laughter, "I think you mistook me child." His words were laced with mockery and his demeanor, cold.
He's words reminded me of my weakness yet again and the strength that I lacked, I was never going to be a match for him, my knees fell to the ground. The tears that were already pouring slowly from my eyes began to overflow as despair made its home inside my heart. As I knelt there, I thought to myself why fate chose to do this to me, why should I lose her? Maybe I was cursed to suffer.
"You must have forgotten that I am a Demigod. And I loathe children." Whisper said in a calmly voice as he tossed Hazel's body aside and slowly walked towards me. I couldn't find the strength to get up and run, my legs wouldn't move. "I can't let anyone know what I have in store for the world, not yet. And to think that the great Goddess Erebus would need a human child's blood as a form of payment for her power. I suppose It was fate that a human absorbed the map, and now the can be the payment as well." My eyes widened in fear after I heard Whisper's words, "I'm going to die." That thought run over and over again in my mind. I thought maybe I could try begging him to spare my life but then what would be the use if Hazel wasn't there.
Whisper threw a kick with vicious speed and it crashed into my head, his attack was weaker than it could have been but still left my vision blurred. I suppose he wanted to enjoy this.
He beat and cut me to a bloody pulp for an hour straight and laughed at my painful screams and cries. He then took a blade and cut into my cheek slowly, "You know, I didn't really kill your vampire friend. I left her alive but paralyzed so she can get a good look at the bloodied corpse of her so called hero." Whisper says as he lets out an insane laugh but stops abruptly as if he immediately got bored of mutilating me. He stood up and turned his head at me, with his mouth exposed, he had a joyous grin on his mouth, he then spat on my bloodied body. My dark blue hair became more of a velvet black and my face was beaten so much the numbness made me feel like I was unrecognizable.
I CURSE AT YOU FATE for letting this happen to us, my anger and rage overcame me as I thought about how the Gods were supposed to protect us. Every single day that me and Hazel would struggle, we'd still keep smiles on our faces, we believed that the Gods were watching over us and had a plan for us, so we kept our faith in them. But look at us now, it's laughable really, "I hate this and I hate the Gods, most of all I HATE Whisper." I thought this as I slowly began to lose consciousness.
"I'll kill you, I swear it." I said, my words barely above a whisper as I coughed blood.

As I slowly regained consciousness I saw Eden, bloody and at death's door with Whisper towering over him. "Your voice is annoying to hear." Whisper says just as he beheads Eden and tosses his body onto the altar like it's trash. He killed him right before my very eye's and I couldn't even get up. Eden died right in front of me and I couldn't do anything, my eyes overflowed with tears as a muffled scream ripped out of my throat. "Eden's dead." That thought replayed in my mind over and over and over again, my best and only friend just died and I couldn't do anything. I turned my glare to Whisper who seemed to have gotten what he was after, the ground turned bright red as the altar absorbed the blood from Eden's corpse. The ground started quake as great winds blew, dark shadow like silhouettes flew around chanting words that seemed to be an ancient old language. The room darkened as the silhouettes danced along the chaos, a haze of black and purple covered the entire room and seemed to consume Whisper.
"FINALLY!!" Whisper exclaimed with a maddened foul laughter, the dark haze reduced as did Whisper's laughter. Then suddenly Whisper's new darker presence came over the entire room, as if he power wasn't already tremendous, he then started to exit the room, but before he left he turned his head towards me. "Such an embarrassment to the Evertwigh name." he says with a voice laced with mockery and then departs.
I started to regain some of my strength and I crawled over to Eden's body, my mind was shambles and my body a weakened mess.
"Please, please. Please wake up. I can't lose you." I cried out, my voice shaking as my cloths get soaked in his blood. "You can't die Eden." My lips tremble as these words hiss past them and I breakdown.
I had just lost the only family I have.
