Saving the Innocent

I look around as the blood curling scream bounced off houses. My eyes wandering around trying to find where the scream came from. The moon shining bright as my eyes peer into the darkness that surrounds me. The lamps on the streets illuminating some of the alleyways. As the wind blows and I keep walking further down the street, the screaming becomes clearer. The high pitched wailing making my heart pound in my chest. My feet bringing me to the scream as the lights on the post buzzes out. I turn to where the scream stops. The alleyway dark and dingy and the wind blowing hard. My eyes wander to see two figures. A smaller figure shuddering like a newborn fawn. As the bigger figure looks down at the smaller one, a weapon in their hand. As an Atalaian, something hit me hard. Anger I suppose.

I walked down the alleyway, the bigger person turned and looked at me. "Well, well, well look what we have here?" The voice was harsh and unwelcoming. "No answer huh? Guess I'll have to do the same to you." His voice was rugged and raspy. Disgusting to the ear. He looked exactly like a giant. Like some sort of titan. "Do what to me?" I fianlly said, challenging him. My accent strong and overpowering. He was mad that I didn't shudder in fear. He threw his fist as it hit straight into my palm. Catching it as he did so, making him off guard. 'Good.' I thought. Now it's time to beat the living life out of him for making the poor woman scared senseless. My act of bravery though would surely be heard by my father. Was that the reason as to why I'm doing this? I doubt it. I could careless about my father as of the moment. My number one priority was the woman in front of me. I could feel my senses become clearer. I guess being a minor goddess of the Moon I had some sort of power. He kept trying to punch me, but I kept blocking. He slashed the weapon, which was a knife, straight at my face. The stinging sensation that slashed my face, even though I dodged it. I kicked him and he went back. That gave me enough time to touch my face. My hand wet with blood. Suddenly, I felt a power surge through my bones. Like electricity. I was flying in the air. Hair frizzing. My eyes probably all white and glowing. The giant man Looked at me like I was nuts. I grabbed him and in the air we went. I was spinning him around and around until I let go. He looked scared as he flew from my hands to somewhere I don't even know.

I flew to the ground walking to the woman. "Are you alright?" I asked. Breathing heavily as I did. " T-Thank you... I-I don't know who would have saved me if you didn't... I.. I.. thank you.." she said while crying. I patted her back then said, "I'll walk you home. No one deserves what happened." She nodded then said, "Then let's go...please." She cried all the way there. As soon as we got there she hugged me. "Thank you.. Thank you... so so so much..." She was hiccuping by now. I patted her back once again while saying, "Your welcome."

While doing so I erased her memories and walked away. No one needs to see the monster I am. Even if I did save her.
