Starfall (3)

Sirius Moonreaver. The Lord of the Moonreaver House. A thousand-year-old Vampire. The inheritor of the Sirius name and the owner of the Stardevourer, a weapon that records every one of its previous users' abilities.

That monster was now my opponent and one that I had to defeat. Even though I only needed to land a single hit on the man, it was easier said than done.

No matter how much I've trained and how incredible my power was, it still pales in comparison to the centuries of experience and overall fighting prowess that Sirius had accumulated. And so, for me to have any chance of winning, I had to set the initiative.

Bzzzztttt!!!

I raised my hand and channelled magic power to the ring of creation. Coils of lightning wreathed around my finger as they turned into an infinite white snake of electricity. I pointed my hand to the sky and sent the electric power flying. The clouds changed at my sudden movement, turning the moonlit night into one of pure darkness.
