Aeran

I staggered back a step as his face turned towards me.

Mike.

My patrol buddy.I bend forward and checked his pulse.Alive.A groan erupted from deep his body as I touched his arm.No later he sagged to the ground.Passed out cold.My eyes zeroed on the Court where silence reigned. I took the few steps near it and stopped short.

More bodies lying around the court in varying states.I checked the pulse of the one nearest to me.It was there.Faint but there.

It was then I saw it.

Her with those red flaming shadows.Standing so erectly with her features twisted into something evil.Something cruel.The dark red shadows around her turning brighter as her red eyes flashed at a subdued Rave.Kneeling before her.His head bowed.

I closed the distance to them.
