The Girl from Hell

𝐌𝐫 𝐄𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐎𝐕

I am currently in my car going back to my pit. Well, groceries are done. Let's listen to some music.

Let it burn by Citizen Soldier

Not bad. Not bad at all.

*Krrrrr*

What the hell? The car just stopped. I did its maintenance just last week. Let's take a look what's wrong.

*Dak*

What the fuck? The door isn't opening.

The fog started to cover my surrounding, I couldn't see anything. The fog started entering through the window into my nostril. The vehicles in my surroundings are no longer visible.

I wanted to panic and scream all at once. I want to say my heart was beating out of my chest, but it too had stopped.

I have no idea about what is happening. All I know was I am somehow become paralyzed and could not move a muscle. I tried to strain myself, force myself back into motion. Is this what a paraplegic felt every day of their lives? Why can't I move? I struggled to regain some sense of movement. My brain was working because I can think and realize my situation. But NOTHING moved physically.

"HELP!!!" I mentally cried out. I could see the shape and outline of the person but couldn't make out any colour or gender. I just want them to help me. It is agonizing as I am waiting for them to come out into plain view, from the shadowy side of the building from the fog. I looked directly at them. It felt like Eons and yet there seemed to be no further movement from the person.

I can see a person in the fog. I focused on the person in the shadows. Only they had exited it a little bit. I could make out the silvery glowing eyes and the Dog like face. Had I confused a person with a dog? It was still too dark and far away to make out.

The Dog moved slightly more into the light, only the dog wasn't a dog, and it damn sure wasn't a person. The Fog swirled about its shoulders as it's massive maw exited the milk. The best way to describe what I saw was a Minotaur and a Deers head with dagger-like horns coming out of the sides of the beasts brownish-grey fur. The Silvery eyes locked onto mines as the panic returned. I have to start the car. Paralyzed like this I am keenly aware of the space and location of my body parts. Keys were hung mid-air near the ignition. Fingers were still near the door. I could close it.

The Beast had emerged nearly fully from the shadows and was now in the process of leaping over a blue Ford Taurus. Its massive right hand smashing into the trunk of the car, forcing it down towards the ground. My fingers have made contact with the door fully now. I just have to hope I could make it to the handle before that thing could get close to me. I have no wish to feel those teeth on any part of me, or that powerfully clawed hand reaching for my throat.

Launching itself off the car. It was in mid-air with its right foot pushing it higher. Looking up at it I noticed something else that must have been there but was ignored by my eyes in all the panic. Another figure was launching itself towards the top-most car on my side. This one had Glowing Amber coloured eyes. Fuck fuck fuck... A demon Stag on my left, and another demon-like being to the right. I gotta get this door open. I am not even sure if it was going to save me from what the Demon Stag thing did to the Ford.

The Demon Stag was in the process of coming out of the leap and was nearly 100 yards from me. It acted like it didn't even notice the Amber Demon as it...SHE had landed on the roof of the silver truck. SHE, however, did notice the Demon stag as it made its way to me. Using her left arm she pushed off the silver truck towards the White Sedan.

The Demon stags powerfully muscled left arm gripped the pavement rending it as if it pulled itself forward with sheer power. I noticed that time was moving slightly faster the closer it got to me. That must be how it hunts. It slows down the movement of it's victim and kills from the rear or by surprise. The doomed being not even knowing it was dead. Silly me I just happened to turn my head and notice it. I guess instant death was a blessing. But I know I was going to die and it was no blessing to me. I could actually see my hands fingers starting to move. Still agonizingly slow, however. I could now feel the sweat on my brow and frantic heartbeat resuming. I can't believe it's only been a little more than a minute. The Demon Stag was slightly ahead of the Amber Demon Girl, still to the left of me near a grey Honda. The Demon Girls skin came into clarity as she exited the heaviest of the fog. It looked like the veins beneath her skin were tracks of lava after a Volcano exploded. When it is sliding snakelike down the sides of the Volcano. Her skin was dark. Was it a black girl? A black girl with demon blood.

The demonic girl with amber eyes, glowing with short-styled hair.

As time sped up I feel confident in the fact that I could close the door in time. But even then those teeth claws and lava blood were more than a match for car windows. My hand finally made it to the ignition as I felt the key touch the slot. My groceries were still in mid free fall from my lap as I leaned back into the car trying to give myself space in case one of them made it first.

As time normalized I was happy that I had not yet stepped out of the car. I opened the door as the Demon girl slammed the door shut with so much force; it nearly dislodged my shoulder. Luckily I was leaning in when she did so. Her back to me she tried to block the window just as I made Ignition. But the Demon Stags mouth punched through an open spot near her side and right through the window. I instinctively closed my eyes as the spittle slapped me in the face. I am able to grab the gear shift, pound the gas and hit reverse. It is a life-saving measure, but a dumb idea. I hit the peddle so hard I went straight back into the hood of another parked car. Nearly knocking myself out. Stunned I blearily looked out the front windshield and watched as the Demon Girl lifted the Demon Stag into the air then slam the damned thing into the ground. Her hands were glowing red hot as she shoved it into the side of the beast's body. Its howl was so loud car alarms went off and people being to show up at the windows.

The Girl didn't even try to hide what she was doing. I couldn't tell if the beast was dead or just unconscious from the trauma it received. I opened the car door, rolled out of my car and puked on the ground as the smell of seared demon thing hit me. I heard a crack then a pop, then another crack and pop then a wet ripping sound. I saw the demon girl walking towards me, hands still smoking.

The mutilated body of the beast turned into ashes and was washed away by the wind.

"Who are you?" I stammered as she punched a crack on the ground.

"Where is the Vark?"
