Waking up

In a relatively quiet large forest there was a women who seemed to be in her early fifties, she was running at a very high speed which an average normal person couldn't even see even if they focused.

she was wearing a maid dress but it was dirty with dirt and other stains it was also ragged with cuts here and there, while her face and skin also had many small cuts and where also dirty, the most surprising part was that her face and her dress was covered with many blood stains.

she was carrying a wooden basket which was covered with a very beautiful and soft cloth and inside it where three small human babies who all had black hair and they all had a black ring tied to a rope around their neck each, which had a symbol of a dragons head and a human next to it with a gaint hammer almost two times the size of the human.

the black ring was a ring which was usually given to the heir of the várvaroi household and it was also their family treasure which has been passed down from their first ancestor.

they only had five of them, the count had one while the other one was with a dragon which was very far away currently sleeping, as for why all three of them had it, it was because of the current situation of the family because on this very evening they where attacked by not one not two but three Duke families and it was probably the end of the household even if some of the people survived they will either have to move on and get hired by another family or do other jobs but not for their bloodline because as long as these three survive their bloodline can still go on and that was the final mission of this maid.

she ran fast even though she was tried and was sweating very much but it was mainly because she knew that it was only a matter of time before she is hunted down and killed so she had to somehow get the babies to a safe place

there were all sorts of ideas popping up in her head like leaving them at a orphanage or at a church or pay a family or group to keep them hidden but it will be very hard because the three Dukes knew that they had three young masters and they all had black hair with high talent so it will be suspicious if all of sudden three babies showed up out of nowhere, she thought about spilting them up which was the best thing to do right now because even though they had many allies there is a chance for them to betray them tomorrow when they hear that the family is no more and the biggest problem was that none of the three babies had even woke up even though it has been a week but suddenly a crazy idea popped up in her head as she slowly stopped running and placed the babies in a small hole in a random tree and she turned back at the way she was running from and prepared herself by resting and setting up traps.

however what she didn't know was that currently there where three pair of black eyes looking around with curiosity and confusion at what was happening.

after a few hours the three heard sounds of fighting and suddenly a very loud sound was heard as well as a big wave of fierce wind blowed at the hole they were at and lifted the cloth that was over them, though they tried to move it with their small little hands it was too far up but now that it had flown away they heard the sound of heavy breathing looking at where it came from they saw a old women who was very close to death and behind her the ground was destoryed here and there with craters

as well as the trees were on fire with black smoke going up into the sky.

she came towards them and she smiled when she saw the three of them looking at her, though they didn't know why.

after coming next to them she said something which they didn't understand and after finishing saying what she was saying, she walked a bit away from them and bent down on the ground and drew on the ground with her blood and using her hands, with every minute passing by her breathing was slowly but surely slowing down and after she finished she once again said something which they didn't understand but they understood that whatever she was saying it was definitely a different language from before which she said to talk to them.

after she finished saying what she was saying the thing she threw on the ground suddenly started glowing a colour of bright blood red and a person came from below the ground from under the thing she drew and they talked for a bit then the person which they recognized as a demon from its apprence let out a crazy laugh before extending his black arm which had some slight black scales till his forearm and around his wrist, the things he was pointing at were the people who were killed by the maid their was five of them, probably a squad of assassins from their slightly intact black clothing after the battle or what they assumed was a battle between those five assassins and the maid from the sound they heard before the cloth blew away, after pointing his hand at them he then pointed his hand also at the woman in the maid outfit who after few seconds fell down probably died, then the demon slowly move towards us and picked us up before spreading his black bat like wings and flapped them which lifted him off the ground causing the leaves which have fallen down as well as the ones still intact to the branches to flutter just from the force of his wings and he bolted into the sky with insane speed at which the three had to close their eyes and after a while he didn't seem to slow down and they also felt like he was going to fly for a long time so eventually they fell asleep.
