[color=darkturquoise]Location:[/color] River Port
[hr]

Alaia flew her way over to Vrexen, the humming of her wings filling the air. [color=8b38c7]“So Mr. Vrexen, we need to head to the woods and find someone. I was supposed to meet them there to play a game! They want to be chased and really scared.”[/color]

[color=darkturquoise]“Game? I have no time for games, creature! Chase? No, I hunt. We hunt!”[/color] Vrexen almost sounded irritated yet there was a hint of curiosity in his tone.

[color=8b38c7]“No, I promise you will get to hunt. Just please help me this one time.”[/color]

[color=darkturquoise]“.......Fine. But don’t be mistaken. You serve me, creature. Now, find our prey.”[/color] Vrexen growled.

[color=8b38c7]“Okay! let’s go Mr.Vrexen.”[/color] She said as she smiled at him, moving towards the forest outside of River Port.

[color=darkturquoise]“Mr. Vrexen…”[/color] He muttered. He was not sure if he favored such a naming. It was formal but lack the power “Lord” or “Master” came with. He followed the fairy into the forest, maintaining his appearance as a reptilian demi-human. 

They traveled well into the forest. That was when they would spot a small young female [url=https://i.imgur.com/ebJckF5.png] goat demi-human[/url] in the distance. She was picking herbs and placing them into a basket.  Alaia stopped Vrexen, putting her hand in front of him. [color=8b38c7]“Shh.. That is the person we are trying to scare.”[/color] She whispered.[color=8b38c7] “Now I want you to roar just chase her but if she falls, stop and hide a little in the forest. Then, when I say run, I want you to show me violence okay? Oh, and take off that silly ring we can’t scare anyone looking like a lizard.”[/color] 

Vrexen stared at the young demi-human, his eyes unblinking. Without taking his gaze off of his prey, he twisted the ring, appearing as his normal self. His three eyes glimmered in the night from the moonlight of the two moons. He glanced at Alaia who gave him a confident nod. 

[color=darkturquoise]“VIOLENCE! THAT IS WHAT I BRING UPON YOUR WORTHLESS LIFE!”[/color] Vrexen roared, startling the girl who simply shrieked and ran once she caught sight of the monster that was Vrexen. With her first step, Vrexen took his first leap, running powerfully on all fours. [color=darkturquoise]“YOU BLEED FEAR! THAT WILL NOT SATISFY ME! I SEEK VIOLENCE!”[/COLOR] Vrexen zigzagged through the trees, prolonging the chase before the young demi-human tripped and fell onto the forest floor. Her ankle snapped! Vrexen bared his teeth but dashed away as he was curious in seeing how Alaia perceived the concept of violence. He crept down in the brush, hiding while his prey wept in pain and fear of death.

Alaia quickly flew towards the frightened and injured demi-human girl landing beside her.  [color=8b38c7]“Listen, shhh it’s gonna be okay. That thing is gone now; you’re safe. I am going to help you but I am going to need you to run home as soon as I heal you,”[/color] she told the girl, who was crying in agony on the ground. Alaia had begun to heal the girl’s ankle, bending to its correct position until it felt normal as if she was never hurt. Alaia picked up the girl back onto her feet and screamed. [color=8b38c7]“Ruuun!”[/color]The girl demi-human just nodded in shock, before turning and running for her life.

The sound of twigs and leaves being kicked up was heard as he lunged ahead, moving with no desire to stop as he had before. The demi-human was moving surprisingly faster. [color=darkturquoise][i]What is this?![/i][/color] He snarled. Despite her increase in haste, Vrexen caught up and swiped at her head, smacking her into a tree. After making contact she fell to the ground. The girl leaned against the tree and turned to face the monster, terror filling her expression as she screamed pleading for her life.[color=darkturquoise]“SHUT UP!”[/color] With an open palm thrust, Vrexen smashed her skull into the tree trunk, caving in her face. [color=darkturquoise]“Yes… YES!”[/color] He stepped on her chest and grabbed her arms before tearing them from her sockets. [color=darkturquoise]“BLOOD! VIOLENCE IS HERE!”[/color] 

Alaia was right behind Vrexen, watching this beautiful display; she laughed hysterically falling to her knees in pleasure. Her laughter stopped as quickly as it had started. Alaia’s face and tone grew cold.  [color=8b38c7]“You see, I told you this would be fun, the more terror one feels the more they die inside. It is the moment when hope becomes despair that death, fear and violence are at their freshest.”[/color]

[color=darkturquoise]“Hmm… Death is but a product of violence. I do not care how it is achieved. Violence is violence. Violence is violence…. Violence is violence.”[/color] He felt good saying it, trailing off with each repetition. 

 [color=8b38c7]“There will be more violence as long as you stay with me.”[/color] Alaia looked into Vrexen’s eyes.  [color=8b38c7]“This is our little secret okay?”[/color] She told him with an expression of blood lust. Vrexen displayed a rare smile.

[color=darkturquoise]“Alaia…”[/color] He finally spoke her name. [color=darkturquoise]“There will  be more violence as long as you [i]serve[/i]... [b]violence[/b].”[/color] He dropped the arms of the demi-human into the dirt. [color=darkturquoise]“A secret is worth what we both desire.”[/color]
