Kira walked through the plains, sweat beading on her brow. Her purple outfit didn't help with the heat and all the goods packed on her back. She stretched her demon wings lazily. Her employer was panting behind her in his sweat drenched noble clothing. It was her mission to get him safely to Ea. She turned behind herself and faced the noble and said in a tried voice " so why are we going through this detour." Earlier the noble changed thier direction so it took a longer time but she didn't know why. She didn't even know her employers name. He made a face and panted " I'm paying you so why does it matter." She returned to her normal position with a sigh.

Up in the distance was a tower. It loomed ahead like a bad omen. Kira had a bad feeling but the noble was right, he was paying her. In about a hour she reached the tower. She turned to face the noble and said " well we should spend the night here, at least we will have a roof over our heads." She laided on the ground, exhausted while the nameless noble unrolled a mini bed.

She shifted uncomfortably, her nerves were acting up. There was a presence here, a unwanted presence. Her reaction was to late. A red skinned demon, the size of a human with leathery wings. He pounced on the noble and raised a stinger about the size of pole and aimed it at him. Kira lunged and stuck out her arm to block the stinger. She let out a cry of pain as the stinger pierced her skin and a venom begun to flow through her viens. She stood to face the demon and drew her rapier. With great difficulty she raised her sword and pierced at his heart.

The demon dogded the blow easily with a evil smrik. Kira raised her wings, the venom not spreading there yet. She flew down and kicked the demon in the stomach and the demon flew and hit against the wall. He slumped down unconcious. Kira walked up to the demon and pierced it in the heart. Instead of dying, the demon dissapted into red smoke. Kira turned around swiftly, knowing it had to be a summoned creature.

Nesh Psion Spartan was walking through the forested area. The trees were huge and each looming over him as if spying on his actions. He had heard about an ancient tower in the grassland which is said to be habitated by a immortal demon king. But that did not bother him, for Nesh was borned with sword in his hands and valour in every beat of his heart.

As he was walking he saw strange animals pouncing about. They looked very much like a mutated forms of demons. This place is cursed said Nesh to himself. All the while he was clutching on to his katana anticipating strikes from any nearby blood thirsty demon.

But at a distant, he could hear panting. He could sense it was a girl. And probably she was hurt. He very cautiously carried his katana and ran forward for he was wary of tricks that these nasty demons can play. But to his surprise, he really saw an elegant girl on the floor, she was injured. Nesh approached her quickly, and asked do you need any help...wad happened? But Nesh also could sense that she was of a rare psion class just as he was.

Valathe ran in the form of a wolf, feeling the wind between her fur. She had changed so often, and she was becoming afraid that she would forget her natural form. She shifted to her state she was born in. Her long, elegant red hair sweeped down her back. She saw her reflection in a puddle. She hated it. She changed into a hybrid wolf. She walked clumsily, and noticed a fight. A women was lying their, and red smoke was dissolving in the distance. An old, noble looking man was lying, aghast from what he saw. Another man came up and asked if she needed help.

She quickly noticed that the hurt girl was a demon, so she shifted into her natural state with, two, large leathery demon wings. She began to glide lightly off the ground and meet with the two. "In case you didn't know, that was a summoned monster. Someone is nearby." Valathe told the two. "We should be carefull" She said, hoping that they would agree to her implying that they join forces. She sensed trust from them. "I am Valathe. I am a shapeshifter, here to shift into whatever you need." Her heratige was usally a secret, but they vibes these people sent out told her she could trust him.

She shifted into a dragon. Still small, about five feet tall and wide, black scales gleaming into the moonlight. She gave and experamental blow of poisen out of her mouth, making sure not to get any in the faces of her comrades. She flapped her wings, feeling unsure if they worked. She never was confindate with flight, she didn't trust the support of the wind. The man who summoned the monster should be attacking soon, this was it. The battle would start any minute now. "Be alert," She reminded the other two.

Kira glared at the two intruders. She shouted " just leave!." She stood, struggling as the poisen spread through her viens. She fell back on the ground with a gasp, panting as her energy was fading. Her vision began to blur as a red robed figure came plummeting down. Her vision returned slightly as she began to make out details. He was compltly bald, probly from a summoning gone arwy. She guessed this because small stubs of hair were begining to regrow. He wore a complete set of red and plain brown sandals.

The man also had a leather belt attached to his waist and a plain piece of wood in his hand. Kira concentrated her energy into viens, blocking and slightly delaying the effects but very little. If she wished to totally wished to neutralize the poisen it would take intense and expensive training, wish she had little time for. Kira stood up, not in time to stop the magic missle rocketing at her. It made direct contact with her and she was sent barraling at the stone wall. Her back made contact with a sicking thump.

She slumped on the wall and her head fell limp. She stood slowly and raised her head and another magic missle. This time stood in time to have a chance to react to the magic missle. The missle hit her yet again. She slammed against the wall and her head slumped down. She slowly raised her head revealing a bright red gleam in her eyes. This wizard had unleashed her inner demon and neutralized her inner angel.

A magic missle was flying her yet again. She kept her head low and stuck out her hand and caught the magic missle. She unvieled her demon wings and rocketed at the wizard who was in utter shock. The magic missle turned slightly purple under bieng control of the demon. She slammed it right into the demons chest and sent the man flying. The man, not bieng as durable as Kira, died as he slammed into the wall.

Kira turned to the two visitors and said coldly " you can leave now, your not wanted here." The noble was still in his conner as she laid down on the ground. She had to sleep a little to get the poisen out of her blood, and regain her energy.

Well actually i have my own business here...so im not intending to leave...you do not have to fear us...we can help you...share the burden of yours...you seem to be running an errand for someone? said Nesh Psion Spartan. He wanted to help the girl fight the demon that just appeared but everything happened too fast. She managed to ward of the foe single handedly. Nesh then turned to the other girl that came to help as well. Do you know this place? well the guy that just died, is he the one who summoned the earlier monster? Anyway, My name is Nesh Psion Spartan, a warrior psion...continuned Nesh.

Cecelia was walking through the nearby woods hitting a stick against all the tree's she passed. She stepped on a dry twig that echoed a loud twinging snap through the air. "Oops . . ." She said looking down at her feet. She shrugged it off and kept walking, hitting the stick harder against the trees and swirling it around in her hand. Just then she heard a noise behind her, like the same twinging snapping echoing twig she had stepped on. She closed her eyes and turned around. A giant black cloaked monster almost as big as sacrifice rock (7 feet 5 inches) was standing behind her. "Ooh . . ." She said under her breath. The monster mumbled something in elfish which was unique because few people spoke elfish, and the scary part was she understood it.

The monster drew a large thick sword (6 feet tall 6 inches wide) Cecelia's eyes grew wide and she dropped her stick and ran for. "All the days to have left my weapon at home!" She thought.

Running through the woods she didn't realize she had ran out into bustling traffic. Almost getting hit by a chariot rider. She turned around and the monster was flying over the woods and coming down. Screams were heard throughout the village. Cecelia just kept running for her life until she bumped into a boy who was standing next to a girl hurt and another girl who was a shapeshifter . . .
