Completed Wormhole to Hell

He heard correctly, that much he was sure. Yet her finishing statement had cut deeper than any wound he'd suffer. A grimace slowly played across his face paired with a retching feeling that formed in his stomach, he had forgotten all about that one sentence he said to her, so many months ago, yet she didn't.

Violeta appeared just as quickly, draping herself over his shoulder "You know, I wouldn't say such means things to you." She purred quietly in his ear. His reaction however, startled even him, as he grabbed her by the arm, flinging her nearly 50 yards out before Violeta could right herself. "Fuck off!" he growled harshly at her.

Wordlessly, with a pout, Violeta took the hint and disappeared. Diablo didn't intend to be that intense, yet his instant reaction was clear that he was wounded much greater than first expected. Quietly he stalked back to camp, turning his attention towards the nearly completed boar.

Ripping a piece of the beast off, he'd sat down, taking small bites out of the boar. As he ate, he quietly pondered what Serene had said, he knew what he wanted, he was clear about that. Yet, his growing vulnerability scared him, he never knew how to handle women in the first place, yet here Serene was, the woman he wanted.

Not that he actively searched for her love, it just grew as time passed, and up until now, Diablo never quite understood it. Diablo looked down at his meal, which now, wasn't as appealing as before and cautiously Diablo glanced up at Serene, whom was tending to her own meal, then back to his own before setting the meat down.

"Ah... Umm... Serene..?" He cleared his throat before continuing "I uh, had wanted to stay... with you.. I... wouldn't be happy... if not with you.." His ears burned, his cheeks flushed, and yet his gaze fell upon Serene, searching for an answer. He felt completely out of his element with this sudden confession, it was one thing to say that he wanted her, and it was something different to him at least, to confess that he didn't in fact, want to leave.

She had made quick work of the second limb, just leaving the bare bone behind, it almost frightened her how hungry she had gotten after locking herself up in the dungeon. Just as she discarded the bone and finished her meal Diablo took her attention away for a few seconds but she simply looked at him in confusion.

"What...?" his words made no sense in the literal form, not even a sentence she could comprehend. Serene was struggling with her own mindset and now Diablo seemed to be saying exactly what she wanted to listen to, but at the same time he was only admitting his joy in being with her, perhaps that would be enough.

Serene huffed, shivering lightly as the weather turned colder, the night finally arriving to their mountain top.

"It's getting cold, we need to get inside, come with me." she invited him over into the tent, only a single bedsheet covered the ground, the rest was a mixture of a multitude of rugs to insulate the ground, the walls inside the tent were no exception, giving the aesthetic of a very cozy encampment where they've lived off the land for several weeks now.

As she unrobed and closed the tent behind them, the wind slowly started to pick up the pace, the tent fluttered under it's force, the rugs and garments keeping the interior war. Serene lit up a small lantern and placed it on a nearby wall, lighting up half the tent where she could sit down and take a small journal she kept from on of her previous endeavours.

Here she would write down the trajectory of the caravans she raided, the loot she'd take and even the amount of food both her and Diablo needed to consume to keep themselves from malnutrition.

The next page she would write down however, was a map.

A map of the mountain range, its roads and destinations combined with her memories of prior works from her past, winter was coming and she needed to ponder over their next destination where they could reside next as mountains simply got too cold to both travel in. Their presence there completely chased away any hibernating game they could find, so staying was not an option with such a lack of resources.

Serene bit the end of the small charcoal pen, her legs flexing over each other as she continued to draw out a mental map of their possible destinations. Her mind too focused in the task at hand she completely ignored where Diablo was.

"I suppose it is too much to ask for easy prey, easy environment and a comforting shack for the two of us to live in through the winter, we just need to find..."
Serene continued to both talk to Diablo but mostly to herself, her mental image of the nearby cities and roads a little foggy as it felt like an eternity since she left that life behind.
 
"What...?"
"It's getting cold, we need to get inside, come with me."


Diablo quietly raised a brow, it hadn't donned on him that Serene was affected by the cold unlike he. Disregarding his last statement to her however, he would kick dirt into the fire, effectively smothering it. Diablo grabbed the last of his boar meal, finishing it in two bites, before following Serene inside the tent. Quietly he disrobed his jacket and boots, setting his jet black jacket on a nearby hook, and his boots just under, and laid down.

Silently Diablo listened to Serene chatting away, more complaints than anything, which seemed to be more for her, then real conversation. Casually Diablo sat up and rested his weight on his left arm "Before you stare a hole into the book of yours, you should come to bed." Diablo had glanced over at Serene, patting the makeshift bed beside him as he continued.

"Besides, we will be better off once we restock at the next village. Its clear that we are not finding much anymore in the mountains, everything is too scared of us, you do understand that right?" Diablo raised his right hand as he shrugged. This was always the case, and he knew it. Yet somehow it always felt like a ongoing mockery of him from the gods themselves, that Serene was only just now, getting to know the feeling.

Quietly Diablo let out a sigh as he laid back down and slowly closed his eyes. He knew it would be soon that they would have to tear down the camp and move forward. lingering any longer would only hinder them, as food was scarce, and their tent would only keep Serene so warm, before winter closed in on them.

"We have to get out of the mountains before winter comes, otherwise we will be stuck here until its over." He had stated. It was the unfortunate part of traveling through the mountains, yet it still remained the quickest route for them. As Diablo pondered their options, he would roll to his side as he patiently waited for Serene to take her place next to him.
 
She huffed, something she mus thave picked off from the orcs to do very often nowadays. She closed her book and stretched then proceeded to crawl into the bedsheets. She took this chance to have her fill of Diablo's body, giving him a quick glance as she got closer until she finally laid on top of him, stretching her body whole, her feet casually finding themselves entangled with his.

"I was thinking of moving to the west and picking up some transportation to the south, we have to keep you safe." she kept ranting, wanting his opinion further as she laid on his chest, her bountiful breasts squeezing down on him as she used her forearms to hold her gaze of him. "However strong you might be you were already captured once, it's best to tread carefully until you are assumed dead."

She covered both their bodies with the bedsheet and simply continued to stare at Diablo under the dim light of the lantern, he was gorgeous to look at, she never understood the gimmick of women going for oversized men. She couldn't even begin to image how it'd feel and simply giggled of the thought.
 
Diablo smiled and scoffed at Serenes comment "you presume me crippled already. Besides, I was out numbered in that instance. Yet now...* his sentence trailed off as he paused for a quick moment to sneak in a quick pinch of her luscious rear "I've got you having my back. Nothing to fear now, eh?" Diablo winked and chuckled teasingly.

He then leaned his head back in thought "transportation isn't a bad thought. We have to be mindful however, our coin is scarce, and the lighter we travel the better. So we will be needing sturdy saddle bags." He had nodded in affirmation, it would certainly make their travels much easier on the two of them.

"Also, something to keep in mind. I have been in the south a few times prior, and those kind are not found of outsiders. So I may or may not be known in that neck of the woods." Diablo shrugged a bit, afterwards, he was certain he made no enemies there, yet he had a strange feeling he was forgetting something important. there.

He pondered that fact for a mere moment before his gaze met Serenes, he'd lean his head down, casually placing a soft kiss on her forehead while his free hand, Absent mindedly, had been playing with her beautiful long hair. Surprisingly enough however, his body had begun reacting to her ample breasts that were now squished against his chest.

Her soft skin against his own, felt like a cloud was pressed against him, which was thrilling to say the least, while the dim lantern light danced across her perfect skin as always. Diablo never understood why people had such distain for such a beautiful woman.

Reactions: Serene
Serena's eyelids were slowly falling down, her eyes just dreamy at the sight of her Diablo treating her like an equal, both agreeing but also giving his own strong opinion, it kept her heart calm while her stomach fluttered.

A poke in between her legs made her eyebrows rose up in surprise, it had only been a few times she'd been able to stay awake long enough to feel such sensation. She understood well the reason and even thought of climbing off of him, but she remained where she laid and slowly allowed her eyes shut entirely, her head gently falling on his shoulder as she moved in for a kiss on his lower lip, tender and full of respect and love.

She was beyond happy just knowing his body reacted so naturally to her, just as hers did as her body naturally secreted it's fluids between her legs. She didn't act on these instincts however, as sleep was getting heavier.

"I'm sure we'll figure this out..." she mumbled under her teeth, her mouth barely moving as she slowly started to succumb to sleep.

"I won't... let anyone... capture you again..."

Serene slowly snoozed off, breathing onto Diablo's neck as she remained where she laid, her heart and mind satisfied with the life she had with him at her side.
 
Diablo had casually watched as Serene had slowly drifted off to sleep atop him. "I won't... let anyone... capture you again..." Those words rang within his head, and yet he felt better, greater even, that Serene was that concerned with his well being.

Her hot breath however had caressed his neck, sending a shiver to crawl down his spine, distracting him from his thoughts as his body, yet again, responded in turn. His member now completely erect, had firmly placed itself against her abdomen, twitching every now and again in anticipation.

wide eyed, Diablo had glanced down, expecting to see a pair of glaring eyes, yet the only thing his gaze met was the peaceful face Serene was making, as she was still soundly asleep, he let out a sigh of relief and quietly shifted under her, into a more comfortable position before dozing off himself.

The morning came just as quickly as he closed his eyes, yet the bright light of dawn had only shot small pillars of light through the tent, making his morning much nicer then that of his previous travels. He'd yawn and slowly stretch, yet he still felt Serene atop him.

Not that he minded much, feeling her weight upon him felt safe for Diablo. Carefully Diablo brushed aside her hair that had covered her face, as a smile grew upon his own.

Diablo moved in to place a gentle kiss upon her lips, afterwards, he silently pulled back, admiring her peaceful smile "Time to wake up, sleepy head." His tone was soft as he stroked her hair, for his motivation to move, had quickly diminished, while he smirked and quickly stole yet another kiss.
 
"Mmmmmm...." she groaned, her eyelids were stupidly heavy, like the whole weight of the world was upon them. Her eyebrows however rose up with his kiss and a giant smile covered her face. She barely managed to keep her eyes open as she leaned in to kiss him back, her hands holding onto his cheeks as she continued to enjoy the flavor of his lips over and over again.

Eventually she'd stop and lean back, a purple blush colored her cheeks as she slid off his body and to his side instead, wrapping a leg and arm around him to keep him from going away, she still wasn't ready to face the morning again.

"Just give me a minute here..." she hid her face under the bedsheets and cuddled his shoulder close, her eyes shutting close once more as she lost herself to this blissful moment of peace and sleep.
 
"Just give me a minute here..."

Diablo had nodded in response "Of course dear." was all that was said. Casually he had began gently rubbing Serenes back as she laid next to him, all the while, without thinking had starting softly humming, the same tune that his mother, once upon a time, had hummed for him, when he was but a babe.

He wasn't sure as to why he had done so, yet he felt it appropriate in this moment. So there he laid, humming, the tune itself slowly escaping his lips, filling the air within the tent with his bravado tones. However different it may have seemed, since his pitches were not of his mothers, he still felt he did the song justice for his mother.

He'd continue this for a few moments longer before he'd lean down, kissing Serene passionately, and gently easing her off his now burning body, leaving behind his boots and jacket as he stepped out of the tent. "Don't take to long." He'd call back before turning his attention to the unlit campfire.

He had taken a few smaller logs from a pile nearby and placed them in a square shape before absentmindedly snapping his fingers, making a flame begin to dance upon his finger. Quickly he'd dip his hand into the logs until they took to flame and just as quickly pull his hand out, giving his finger a shake, putting the flame on his hand out. Striding over to the sack, he'd produce a waterskin from its contents, compliments of the orcs of course.

As he uncorked it, he'd dump its contents over his head, while he quietly rubbed his face, completely waking up. afterwards he would start his morning routine, with a few simple exercises, crunches, pushups and the like. Keeping his muscles from ever deteriorating like before was something he always kept in mind. He really didn't like how weak he felt as he recovered from two months of sleeping.
 
CONTRACT #11705-3
It had taken them a whole day just circling and checking half the mountain range, the fog had made it impossible for them to continue any further so they decided to call it a day. T

he following morning they began just before the sunrise, their equipment had started to smell, there was no water stream nearby and they did not want to travel far when they were so close from completing their objective, not to mention the amount of loot they had manage to scavenge from the remains around the forest were plenty enough to triple their normal pay, this was turning to be a very advantageous contract.

"Keep close, pull the knot if you find anything" the leader spoke out before giving his team a single rope with multiple knots in between, the knots were small and easy to snap open should their attention require it, a simple source of communication and warning should the need arise.

The explorer stood behind their leader, the warrior came on third and the magician fell on to the last position as she had plenty of magical defenses to protect her. With this position in mind they slowly made their way further into the mountain where the fog made it impossible to see feet in front of them, their objective was no longer to find any more evidence of something living in the forest, it was clear it was still residing this place, it was only a matter of where.

The leader was the first to pull the knot, a silent warning that immediately made the entire party crouch down into the forest, hiding alongside nature. A rustle in the bushes and a great shadow next to the trees, the leader slowly pulled out a small knife, ready to jump on top of the shadow. Just as he was going to however, the shadow turned to take shape and suddenly a neigh echoed from its direction before trotting away.

The entire party exhaled in relief, the leader immediately sheathed back and turned to make a new knot. The magician turned to rest on her rear for a moment, her weight falling down on a seemingly damp set of leaves. The magician cursed under her breath as she shrugged them off her garments, then turned to see what she had been covered with.

Her eyes widened and immediately she pulled the knot and rope entirely, bringing everyone's attention to her. On her hands lied black blood, it was just starting to dry out on the forest ground.

"Undead?" the warrior whispered, trying not to come out too surprised as they still had to worry about any dweller in the mountain, they were just above halfway through.

The explorer took this opportunity to take the rope and give one end to their leader, keeping the other end herself. The leader nodded and quickly saw the explorer disappear into the forest fog, the party waited quietly in place.

It wasn't long before she pulled the rope on her end and the party immediately followed, it wasn't but a dozen feet away when all the heat escaped from their bodies at the sight of what they had found.

"It's a— the magician mumbled, her stomach turning from the sight of a decapitated head.

"Vampire" the explorer called, a cold sweat running over her forehead as the leader picked it up to examine it. The entire party watched both in awe and in horror as the leader checked over the wounds along its neck, then signaled the warrior to pass over one of his empty sacks where he would place it over.

"Whatever had the strength to kill a monster such as this must be identified and hunted down by the entire city if needed be, they'll believe us if we bring its head." that's all the leader had to say, equally as scared as the rest of his party was.

They wasted no time to create multiple knots on the rope once more and continue their journey, their goal and mindset as one now.
 
The lack of Diablo's presence in their bed was enough to finally wake her up, his body had turned into an excellent heater she could almost swear she could survive the harshest of winters if she only cuddled him close.

The thought made her smile as she stretched her body over, kicking the sheets away as a groan escaped her, it was all just too damn comforting to be true. Serene took a few moments longer to wake up, stretched all over the tent with her entire body bare before finally sitting up and playing around with her hair. It was full of knots and probably needed a wash after the third day, not that Diablo ever said anything bad of how she smelled.

Once she asked him and he somehow stuttered under his breath, she didn't know she could until that moment, but since then she hasn't asked. Serene pulled a brush out of a nearby red sack and started to comb her hair for a couple of minutes, her hair was reaching just a few inches under her shoulders, it had never occurred to her to leave it growing until now.

Nowadays however she felt the confidence to leave it as such, if Diablo ever said different she'd cut it but out of trying to look good for the man she desires. Her mindset made her blush a tad bit before finally standing up on her feet, picking up a new set of clothes both for her and Diablo.

Once she was done she exited the tent and then had the glee of watching Diablo work out in the middle of the nowhere, still bare naked as the night before. It was a joy seeing his skin dripping with a mixture of sweat and dirt and he changed of routine every day, the frustration of still being affected by his deep slumber as clear as the sky was at the top of the mountain.

Content after having her own fill of Diablo's body and her own steamy imagination kicking in, she coughed up as loudly as possible to bring his attention to her, her hands holding the bare minimum of clothes, some pants and a loose shirt for Diablo, leaving his boots just outside the tent.

"I brought you clothes, you should be getting dressed before you catch a cold." she said as stupidly as it sounded now out loud, especially when she herself was still naked in front of him, knocking herself over in her head.
 
"I brought you clothes, you should be getting dressed before you catch a cold."

Diablo had glanced over at Serene, whom was just as stark as he was, yet she thought he would would catch cold? "Surely you mean you dear? Stand out here for too long you'll get the chills yourself. Yet worry not, I'll be sure to keep you warm." He let out a quick chuckle as his strides had taken him over to her.

Yet, as soon as he was toe to toe with her, his heart would begin racing. Between last night, and their blissful morning, Diablo was beginning to feel different, a strange primal feeling was starting to wash over him, while his glazed over violets eyes slowly devoured the woman standing before him. Her gorgeous smile, paired with her perfect body and ample assets, was more then enough to send him over the edge.

Slowly he would lean down, kissing a steady line down her slender neck until he reached her bare shoulder, gently he bit down, while a low growl escaped him. Deftly his hands would reach her rear, grabbing two handfuls as he lifted her up so that now, her face was level with his. As he firmly, yet passionately, placed his lips against hers, kissing her endlessly, catching her bottom lip with his teeth in-between kisses.

This feeling that only grew wilder as the time passed, if at all, was astounding to Diablo. It was as if Serene had opened a cage inside him and released a beast within him that he never knew about, ever before in his life. It was freeing, exhilarating, and terribly exciting. And by the heavens he didn't want the feeling to go away, not once has his body ever responded to anyone quite like Serene. She is special, and she is far different than anyone he had ever met he thought.

Before she knew what she was doing she was corresponding the kiss he had forced on her, no that she had much to say about it at first, her tongue scarcely escaping her lips and brushing his own as a hunger different from what she was now accustomed to began to overwhelm her senses.

When her body was started to get fondled and her hips slowly rose up to his hands practically squeezing out her rear she pushed herself away from the kiss, both of not knowing how to respond as she had no experience whatsoever in the matters of love of sexual relationships, and also because the lingering fear of something similar from the times in the dungeon happening once more.

"W-Wait, don't..."
her voice escaped in moans as she caught some breath, yet as she denied him from coming closer to her, her skin shivered and her hands just gently rested on top of his firm, slim chest. Her body was still in his reach, she did not bother shaking away his grip he had on her waist, not did she try to push him away.

Her head slowly rested on his shoulder, even as she tried to calm down her body was simply not responding according to her own nervousness, her breasts perked up to the point they were aching to be touched, her back arched as if her own body wanted to throw itself at him. And despite all of this evidence she felt the same as he did in that moment, when she looked up to see his hungering face, she watched on to him with a shy expression, clearly not knowing how to respond to his physical advances. "I don't... I've never done anything..."

Before she could say anything else however, her lips found their way back to his and her arms wrapped themselves around his neck, pulling him over to her.
 
CONTRACT #11705-4
A rustle of fabric.

The team slowly made their way to the top of the mountain, where out nowhere the fog seemed to grow thick and accumulate at one point on the ground.

It was clear something was living there but the fog made it too unclear for them to check out from afar. The team nodded to one another and swiftly exchanged positions, the explorer would approach first as her garments would allow her to sneak past the fog without much noise, if any.

With the leader's approval the team waited on the sideline, still holding on to their side of the rope as the explorer disappeared into the fog. Minutes later, rather than pulling from the rope in case of danger, the explorer returned with her head down, a clear blush over her entire face as she walked back with stiff shoulders.

The party looked at one another then back to the explorer as she muttered under her breath.

"Are we sure we're looking for monsters...?"

"Just tell us what you saw." the magician whispered, their distance to their target preventing them from speaking out loud

"I-I didn't, I just listened and..." her entire body was tense now, and the blush on her face simply glowed up further as she remained them like a solid piece of stone.

The party once more looked over each other before deciding their next action, the magician would lead the front as her spells could defend them better than the warrior could with his thick plating.

The explorer remained at the rear, her face glancing up to their leader who stood in front of her before finally shaking away her head from the images she had.

Under her breath and beyond everyone's ears she simply whispered her own concers. "There's no way I heard right..."

As the party itched closer they soon came into view of a large red tent, and just as they did they also began to listen to what the explorer did, their faces full of confusion and illusion as they all systematically pictured the same thing as the explorer did the first time.

A subtle, beast-like grunt could be heard from the other side of the rocking tent. Then under it a less subtle howl of a feminine kind of monster, the idea of what was happening from the rhythm of the tent moving back and forth and the beast like breaths in sync became clearer and clearer to the rest of the party who now had a blush over their face very much like the explorer had.

One detail that didn't escape the magician though, who was trying to distract herself from thinking of their actions, were multiple pair of humanoid limbs tied up to a nearby corner on the tent, clearly fresh and drying out. She got the attention of her party to it and quickly their minds turned to the task at hand.

No matter what they were doing, they were most likely intelligent monsters capable of untold harm towards their compatriots.

They had to soon find out their identities and escape before they finished whatever they were doing.

The party split into two and each carefully approached the other side of the tent from opposite directions. Their hopes being in their presence being overlooked.

Diablo Stood frozen in place, as he wordlessly stared down at his largely grotesque figure. She knows, She knows, She knows was all that ran across his mind, as it played wickedly on loop. While he stood there, with a cold sweat slowly making its way down his boney features, Violeta would appear as she took a seat comfortably upon his one of his massive horns

"You know, she is outnumbered right now, she could use your help master." Violeta wasn't fond of Serene, yet she didn't like the sorry state that Diablo was in, so rather than making things worse than they already were, she decided to kick him back into gear "Come on! You're a bloody demon, and some mere mortals are going to get away with priceless knowledge with you standing there being useless."

Diablos head soon cleared after Violeta's rude commentary as he roll his nonexistent eyes and nodded, making Violeta shake "Whoa master, a little less jostle, your massive remember?" She let out a giggle as Diablo turned, righting himself, before the scene that played before him.

The scene before him was chaos, Serene had taken a charge towards two of the mortals that had positioned themselves behind the tent, yet he knew there were more, quickly he scanned the area and soon spotted the other two, whom were high tailing it away.

He had to choose however, as the two went in separate directions. A smile cracked across his bone features as he recognized one of the two, was the mage, and probably the same mage that had fired off her useless magic's towards his territory, his Serene.

A horrid roar ripped across the blackened skies as Diablo fell on all fours and ripped across the mountain in pursuit. In the blink of an eye, he had deftly closed the gap, while his tail had whipped out and plunged his stinger into the back of the mage.

Carefully his tail swung back, bringing the mage mere inches away from Diablos face as he roared yet again, making the mage to scream in response. She fought hard trying to struggle free and get away, yet her struggle was in vain as he slowly ripped the mages head off.

Quickly and calculated he sent the head of the mage flying into the back of the warrior, which made him fall flat on his face, the warrior quickly spun around just in time to make eye contact with Diablo and watch as he threw the body to the ground and stomp a single bone clawed foot upon the body.

The high pitched pop sound that followed made the warriors face drain of all color as he stumbled to his feet and ran away. Diablo howled yet again, as his arm came out smashing a nearby tree, effectively ripping the trunk from its stump as it went rocketing toward the warrior, missing obviously, yet the message was still the same in the end.

Slowly Diablo had felt his body gradually changing back to a more normal size, as he took a few paces towards the stump and finally sitting as his shifted form had ceased to exist "Get my jacket, Vio." Violeta nodded and quickly left, soon after, coming back with his jet black jacket and quietly draping it over his shoulders.

Diablo sat quietly, hunched over, resting his arms on his knees as his thoughts raced within his mind. What am I to do know? She knows exactly what I am. he thought as that train of thought came the with the fear of the world looking to exploit her for it.

What if...What if she's is killed because of me? I couldn't even fathom the thought, it alone would kill me, I treasure her too much to let scum mortals near her. he thought as a grim face had replaced his previous somber look now.

It was all he could think about, Serene was his and his alone, he would sooner set the world ablaze before allowing anyone to hurt her yet again. As he pondered this thought, the time within the dungeon would play again, he wasn't sure if it would ever stop, but her screams haunted him greatly, he had to do better, be stronger. Nothing can ever happen to her again, he wouldn't allow it, never again.

"NEVER AGAIN!" He yelled at the top of his lungs, his voice, echoing off the face of the mountains as it shook the very ground he stood upon. He wasn't sure what the future had in store for him and Serene, yet he knew that the future didn't know what Diablo had in store either. A that gave Diablo some comfort, what little it may be.

She had to be swift but also quiet, she didn't want to spare a single one of them from their foolishness of looking at her Diablo, she wanted him all for herself and not even allow the gods themselves stare at what she found a beautiful being.

This thought of course was impossible to keep, a result of her euphoria after the impossibly good sex she just took part in.

But she could do something about their intruders.

Completely disregarding the burnt marks of flesh under her skin, she crouched down and leaped on the tip of her feet, the grass just barely bending under her weight before she took the next step forward. Her first victim as in sight, it was almost comical how it was staring right towards her yet not noticing her through the fog.

Serene waited in sublime quiet until the little girl turned her head away to rip it off her neck, her arm swinging in full force, sending her head towards the forest as a gush of blood exploded from the body's wound, still struggling to react before finally turning limp.

The blood must have spewed for quite the range because it only took a few seconds before an enraged man charged towards her, a claymore in hand. The man must have run out blind because she simply had to jump back a few feet behind for him to lose completely sight of her.

The man swinged his sword from one side to the other, crying out his tears as he covered ground towards her direction.

"Where are you?!" the man yelled out as he swung again, his sword tiredly landing on rock, bouncing off his hands.

Serene didn't give the man a reply as she ran at full strength towards him, tackling him out of the mountain top. She stopped her own body from flying away by the use of tendrils along her ankles and watched as the man's body was pierced by a tree branch, the wound larger than his chest, his body remained in place as he died of his injury.

Two more to go, it seemed now Diablo finally snapped out of his own trance and, with a roar that made her heart skip a beat for reasons beyond her current understanding, she saw him charging towards the one that had blasted magic at them in the first place.

She noticed a fourth person running to the opposite direction and gave chase, her feet springing her forward in a matter of seconds until she took a leap out of the mountain top. Her feet, strenghed with the tendrils, broke through the tree branches threatening to tear through her and helped her land on her feet with great impact force just feet apart from her target.

Crouched, she speeded towards him, swinging her leg to his chest, it made a hollow sound as metal bent against her muscle strength, but made no effect on the warrior who watched her with hatred.

The man responded in kind and swung his leg towards her chest, Serene had an opportunity to evade and simply got to watch as the tree next to her bent against the man's strength. She only took a moment to look amazed before evading the next swing coming for her, this time his arms desperate to take a hold of her, naked of any weapons.

Serene watched over his movements as she continued to dance around the man, he was much slower than the white monster they had faced before but clearly on par with Diablo's raw power.

That comparison annoyed her and soon she took the offensive. She allowed his next punch connect directly to her face, the shockwave sending her back several feet back to the ground but with no visible wound on her skin.

The man cried out, his hand missing entirely from the rest of his wrist. His anger could be heard from across the mountain as he watched her spitting out his hand away.

A disgusting flavor unlike even undead blood, Serene was curious of the man's origins and decided to cut him open to find out more when she was done.

With a grin she got to her feet and readied herself to continue the fight, but she was shocked when the man suddenly glowed brightly enough to blind her and disappeared out of her sight.

Serene watched blankly around the forest, arms stretched running to chase after him, but even his smell was gone, only the sound of her own feet accompanying her.

Teleportation magic.

Panic, followed by the possibilities this now opened. With a living witness the world would know Diablo was still alive and guess his general direction, more people would come flooding for him and capture him once more.

Anger was next, her expression turning sour and her entire body tensing.

Her message to the world clear:

Let them come and claim war, I'll rip them apart! I'll rip the world entire!
