Chapter 76

Arya felt the wind rush out of her when she heard that coming from Elijah's mouth.

A surprise attack?

Did they even have the numbers to launch a surprise attack?

What about the refugees and non-fighters? They couldn't fight!!

Everyone seemed to be caught off guard by the proposal.

Lucifer was the next to speak up.

"I think that's a great idea but…"

…..

Arya excused herself from the meeting after sitting through but must have been at least 3 hours.

The cold winter air felt even colder to her after she had been inside a warm house for hours now.

She just about stepped outside when a little girl came rushing over to her and grabbed her by her hand.

She yanked her, trying to pull her somewhere.

"Help, my brother broke his leg. You're that princess with a healing ability, right?"

"Yes? But wait, how did he break his leg in the first place?"

"We were climbing up trees and he slipped and fell down. Hurry!!"

Arya let the girl take her to where her brother was only…there was no one there at all.

They were really far away from the town now, so far away that they were practically isolated.

"There's no one here!"

"Exactly."

Arya whipped her head around to see that that little girl started to change.

She grew taller and older.

She didn't look human anymore.

She was beautiful. In a nightmarish and beastly sort of way.

The left side of her face was covered with lots of beady red eyes that blinked and glared nastily at her. The right side of her face was still human if you could ignore the fact that her skin was a pitch black color and her red eyes were silted like those of a cat's. Two curved black horns protrude from her forehead and her mouth was full of lots of sharp, pointed teeth. Her entire skin was milky white with patches of black all over her body: her arms, her legs, her chest and her face. Her hands ended in sharp claws that look like they could tear through flesh and bone.

Arya's first instinct was to run and get help. Her gut feelings, an almost animalistic feeling inside of her, told her that this monstrous looking woman was far too strong, way out of her league.

But the woman already made a decision for her when one moment she was there and the next moment she was right in front of Arya, slashing with her claws.

Arya barely dodged in time. She felt those claws graze her face and felt blood trickled from a small cut on her face. No worries there as her healing abilities quickly made the cut go away in an instant.

Kakia snarled. She was sure she had caught her off guard and she was confident in her speed. So how was she able to dodge?

Arya let out a blast of telekinesis force that sent Kakia flying backwards. Kakia felt the strength and power of this girl and she was taken aback when she was thrown against a tree. No, forget that, she broke through 5 trees, slamming straight through the trunks, before coming to a stop in a pile of snow.

Damn it, this girl is the one who will be able to defeat my master in the future, Kakia thought, I need to kill her before she grows too powerful.

Arya slammed a foot onto Kakia's chest, pinning her down onto the floor.

When in the world did she get here this quick?

Kakia tried to push Arya off but Arya wasn't budging.

"I'll break an arm or leg if you struggle anymore, bitch."

Arya's voice sounded murderous. 

Kakia laughed but it was forced and nervous.

"Trying to torture me, little human? Oh well, I bet you don't have the nerves to do it."

A sickening crack echoed through the air and Kakia screamed as Arya stomped on her chest, breaking a rib or two.

"Does it look like I'm kidding? You tried to kill me so be prepared for the consequences."

 Kakia knew that this girl was real trouble now. She originally only came here under the orders of her master to kill the green-eyed girl but she now knew what a threat this girl posed to her master.

It hurts to move as two of her ribs were broken and she was pinned under Arya's foot.

She knew deep down in her guts that this girl was too strong and that she could die if she tried to kill her.

Arya yelped and leaped back when Kakia turned to shadows, her entire body transforming into darkness, and disappeared.

She was gone just like that.
