WOW! It's been forever since I posted something here, this is what I have been working on lately. Here is a small teaser to it. Does it sound exciting?
The flames rose higher and higher into the twilight sky. They created a halo of light showing the agony of a dying people. This once sacred ground was now covered in the blood of the human nomads that traveled across the lands guided only by the wind. As the raging inferno consumed the wagons, a figure came running towards the scene. She froze as she witnessed the hell fire devouring her kin and destroying the only home she had ever known.
Crimson blood skin against the nighttime horizon, the demon girl with the tail rushed into the scene, "Sister! Father!"
Calling out, she sought out the only family she ever had. The girl braved the very hellish flames to find them, "CAPRICA!"
The demon girl stopped and looked around till she spotted the voice. It was her younger sister, Dawn. Crying out with joy, Caprica rushed to her sister, "Dawn!"
"Hm? A Tiefling? How amusing," A cruel voice laughed.
In front of a pillar of fire, a strange creature held a young human maiden in its grasp. The creature resembled a dragon, but it bore a masquerade mask and hollow blue, glowing eyes beneath it. Slithering its long neck down, the creature began to shift its shape into a young woman with a blue-feathered dress. Her long, glowing orange hair draped over Dawn's small body. The young girl's hazel eyes looked void of any life.
Stroking Dawn's pale peach skin, the woman stared at Caprica almost mesmerized, "It has been exactly 19 years, 23 days, 13 hours, 52 minutes, and 12 seconds since the last time I have seen a Tiefling alive. I am quite surprised."
Glaring at the mysterious woman, Caprica's golden eyes dimmed and blended in with the blackness that surrounded them, "Let her go."
The woman laughed, "A lowly demon has no say over the great Isleen."
Caprica's eyes widened as she took a step back. That woman was Isleen. The great, all-powerful Isleen the deity that rained over all others the strongest, Caprica had no chance against her, "P-please, just let her go."
The deity frowned, "Alright."
Melting, the deity transformed into a colossal cube of slime, and Dawn floated helplessly inside as she began to drown. Caprica hasty made her way to the cube, and she shoved her arms inside hoping to grab her sister, "KYA!"
Screaming in agony, the Tiefling girl quickly pulled her arms out. She looked at her arms. The fabric was burning her flesh looked like it had been branded, "You cannot hope to touch me unless I allow it."
Caprica begged and begged, "please! Don't kill her! Please don't take my sister away!"
"If I wish, I could do both and you can do nothing to stop it."
Caprica's eyes began to fill with tears, "P-please don't, I beg you."
The goop splashed against the surface, and Dawn was released. She coughed heavily as she moved her red hair out of her face, "C-caprica?"
The Tiefling smiled, "Dawn!"
Before she could run to her sister, the goop gathered together into a human form behind Dawn. The deity wrapped its glowing green arms around the maiden, "DAWN!"
Giant wings busted through the deity's back and spread across the sky. The deity began to shape into a titan-sized bird, a colossus of the air. Dawn was trapped, held by the creature's talons.
Falling to her knees, the Tiefling could only watch as the Deity fly off with Dawn in her clutches. With her eyes full of tears, Caprica muttered to herself, "I will save you Dawn. I will kill Isleen."
But how can a mortal kill a God?
