Copper light originated from the burning small houses brightened the night around the premises of the castle. Unpleasant screams of countless victims rang across the streets. Most of the fellow guards didn’t even have a chance to leave the comfort of their beds. Guardsman and farmer alike, none was spared in this horrifying night. A small army of bandits and dark troops raid the city and surpassed the thick gates of the king’s keep, leaving a trail of blood wherever they walked. During their merciless campaign against the kingdom, they cleared a path for their dark mistress to follow. While her minions did most of the work, gross view of burnt corpses were her doing. She was easy to spot among the lowly brutes that surrounded her. A dark green bodycon hugged her form nicely. Magic wasn’t the only weapon of a witch. V-neck of her dress emphasized the witch’s cleavage, a deadly distraction hard to ignore. Under it, her smooth legs were bare. A pair of thin strips coiled each of the woman’s long legs. They ran around her skin in a constant loop like living snakes.
Leaving a massacre behind her, the witch entered the keep. Upon setting foot in the palace, a well-armed man rushed into to stop her. One of her lifeless magical minions that reminded a dark statue was quick to stop the said man’s interruption. It lifted the guard from the throat, while its mistress spoke to the choking guy. “Where is he?” Alanna asked. She showed little patience to his silence. Getting a subtle nod from the witch, the shadowy figure snapped the guard’s neck, leaving his lifeless body lying on the stone floor. A slight wave of her hand flew the next guard toward the witch. She stared at the man and softly asked again. “Where is he?” There were more people in the building she could question, but she had no time to waste on unresponsive warriors. She twisted her wrist, and watched the man turn into dust.
“Who are you?” One decided to ask first instead of outright attacking the woman. An invisible force quickly force the man to his knees, breaking both of his legs in the process. Alanna looked down at the suffering man.
“Don’t you remember?” She walked pass him. A bandit made quick work on the guy, slitting his throat in place. Same question regarding the whereabouts of the ruler of the land echoed across the grandiose halls. Those royal guards were indeed very loyal to their king, none giving the witch a clear answer. Although being highly trained, they kept falling down like little flies. By the time Alanna climbed the steps, she had left a small massacre behind her. On her way to the throne room, the witch had stopped asking questions, but began to just burn any attackers. The throne was empty, hardly a surprise. In between the agonizing screams of her still burning victims, Alanna gave the head of the bandits a new task. “Bring me more.” She ordered. With that, filthy group of bandits rushed out of the big room to find new victims that were more prone to talk. They weren’t very smart, but a good tool under the witch’s command. Although she didn’t give those lowly bandits much credit, they were about to hit jackpot when it came to whom they captured to bring into Alanna’s presence.
When the bandits returned to the throne room, their numbers were fewer than when they left. Some of them had fallen victim to a barrage of arrows and some precise pokes of a sword. Despite their losses, the head of the group seemed to be happy with his finding. A valuable asset to hand over. With an accomplished grin, he tossed the chained up body of a young girl on the cold floor. “Your trophy!” He saluted his mistress.
Although the witch couldn’t recognize the copper haired beauty, she looked familiar. “Who is this?” Alanna asked, keeping her eyes on Katrina.
The guy who had brought the girl to the witch grabbed a fistful of the girl’s copper hair to tilt her head up. “Why don’t you say it yourself princess?”
