Chapter 1: A fight that leads to death
Amira ducks when the figure punches. It's black fist making even the air dent in. Amira jolts up and punches, and everything seems to slow and her fist is surrounded with wind attaching to it. She slams her fist into the figures black and purple eye. "GARGHL!" The figure staggers back clutching the eyes, that has decipated in that area.
Amira spins on her heel and darts into the forest. Her footsteps smacking against the ground. The figure snarls and darts after her, swiftly dodging trees and sharp branches. Amira just runs through them wincing as branches slash through her skin. She keeps running, her legs burning and aching. She wants to stop but she knows she can't.
She has to keep going.
Amira misses a step and jolts downwards. Rolling and tumbling over sharp edges and rocks. "Agh!" She hits her torso against a tree and coughs out spit. She stumbles up clutching her stomach. She looks around the green lushed forest. She runs ignoring the pain in her stomach and the earlier cuts. "I can make it, just a little longer." Amira says through clenched teeth.
The wind howls around her as the sun shines bright in the sky. Trees loom over her and grass stays firm under her rapid footsteps. Her heart races and her mind spins. She takes a sharp turn and bam!
Amira staggers back, her forehead red and her nose trickling blood. She bumped into a tree. Amira wants to screams in rage. But she knows she can't do that right now. Not until she finds a safe place. A ball of purple and black aura blasts the tree, splintering it, and Amira dives to the side into another tree. "Agh." She groans. Amira looks up and sees the figure standing in front of her smiling chillingly. It had no face, but it has sharp and pointed teeth on it's all black face.
Amira's eyes widen at it's speed, and the figure gets ready to stomp on Amira, but she jumps to the side again. She rolls away but the figure appears before her and kicks her in the torso up into the sky. The figure appears and slams it's leg down on her back and a sickening crack echoes. She slams down into the ground causing a big explosion of dust, and a huge dent in the ground.
When the dust clears, Amira lays sprawled out in the huge dent barely clinging to life. The figure comes down and smiles creepily then leaves. Amira groans in agony and pain. Tears spill put of her eyes, and she lays still on the ground. Her fruit pink looks dull and her gold eyes look lifeless.
*Flashback: Amira runs around the field giggling. She's younger, about five. A man with blue eyes and blonde hair smoothed to the side chases after her. His chest thick with muscles, his buil strong. Sweat trickles down his forehead as he runs after Amira chuckling. "Get back here troublemaker!" The man yelled. Amira giggles and runs faster, her little legs only taking her so far.
Orange-yellow grass stood tall and flowed freely with the wind. The sun creates a warm glow in the beautiful scene. The afternoon is beautifully sculpted as Amira runs from the man giggling.
Amira trips over a stick and falls onto her knees. "Ahh!" She sobs clutching her knee, that was scraped slightly. The mab rushes over and kneels beside her. "What happened?" The man asks frantically. Amira sobs and hugs her knee closer and the man's eyes soften at the slight scrape.
He places a gentle kiss on her knee then stands up. Amira looks at him with teary eyes. "You have to learn to get through even the cruelest injuries!" The man cheerfully says. He smiles bright and Amira looks at him mesmerised. The afternoon light catches his smile.
He looks firece, but at the same time......happy. "Toughest injuries?" Amira asks confused. The man nods. "yes my little troublemaker." He says holding his hand out. Amira looks at him bewildered then back at her knee. "But it hurts......" Amira softly says.
His face softens and he puts his hand out more insistently. "Come on babygirl." He encourages. Amira takes his hand and winces as she stands. "GOOD JOB!" He exclaims, scooping her up and carrying her. Amira giggles.
Amira twitches her aching fingers. Her body screams in pain. Amira opens her eyes and twitches her toes. She keeps in her screams of agony. She stumbles up, her body burning and aching, and tears rush down her face. It hurts, but she will keep going.
