The trials of Sheena
It was a new day. A new life. Sheena's daughter,
Keres had been returned to her from the clutches of Samoth. She knew Trenin
had a part in both her taking and release. But that did not matter now.
She had Keres. All was well. She will train her in the proper ways of the
kindred. Teach her how to avoid insane mortals with their sense of "righteousness".
Ahh yes. Things will be joyous again. Sheena cuddled Keres and spoke gently
to her in Market Square. Keres mentioned her hunger and Sheena smirked.
Looking about the area she saw mortals everywhere. Her eyes flashed as
she saw a gentleman by the name of Firehawk. Approaching him she asked
if he may be a willing small meal for Keres. He declined and though disappointed
she let it go. Reminding Keres in town we use only willing donors. Out
of town.. heh they were free game to hunt. That meddling Eleni and a few
of her friends took to arms at the comment. Before Sheena could grasp how
dangerous the situation was. She and Keres.. the only two kindred in the
area were being approached by quite a few og those annoying live flesh
beings. Keres spoke into Sheena's mind "There are too many of them" Sheena
nodded, biting her lip then sweeping Keres into her arms and leaping to
a nearby roof to watch the holier than thous. Shouting out with her vampiric
voice she called out to the other undead. Her brethren. All be damned if
they would be forced away by these fleshy pests. Soon she saw Paladins
and that damned dragron, Ryel stand in force with the fleshy ones. Sheena
sighed and took Keres hand as she spoke out loud "Take that Eleni wench.
She is weak. I will handle as many as I can. Damn them if they think they
can run us out" As we entered the area.. Maya appeared beside Sheena, speaking
to her mind "I felt your call. On this I am at your side" Sheena did not
let the relief she felt show. Next appeared Samoth in all his rotting flesh
glory. She saw Keres smile at him but this time he was there to fight beside
her. not with her. Sheena knew we were still outnumbered.. but we would
put up an excellent fight. Another appeared, one she had seen around a
few times and he came to aide them also. "Let the battle begin" Sheena
growled. Bodies flew and sword clashed. Whips cracked and screams echoed
as the two factions.. undead and flesh fought bravely. That pesty dragon
took Keres into his massive claw and Samother and the stranger attacked
him. Fighting with vigor and malice. Maya and Sheena both rushed to aide
the other when trouble arose.. But something horrible occured... to be
continued...
