Power of the Howling Moon part 3 (best part so far)
Auron had been near the village for three days. The girl was no where to be seen he had let her go because she distracted him from his fun. He smiled as he heard a stick snap a couple yards away "Soooo the fools decide to strike first how interesting."Auron prepared for the visitors and when they arrived he dropped from the tree in front of them."What do you want?" He demanded in a booming voice a dark aura swirling around him. The eight men tried to surround him but he tore them to pieces and devoured their souls his claws dripping blood. "Now for the village." Auroun ran to the village and enjoyed the silence of the night as the moon shown in the sky. He reached the middle of the village when barricades suddenly appeared around him a holy man stepped out of the shadows his sword gleaming in the silvery moonlight his white robe blowing in the wind. "Foul Demon you have terrorized this world for far too long and I have come to end your existence." Auron roared with laughter "Tell me priest how do you plan to do this Holy Water, Silver, Prayer Beads? I tell you now to spare your efforts you are not dealing with an ordinary demon, I have laughed at terrors that would have you shaking like a child, I have ended civilisations with my own hands the blood of mighty kings and warriors have dripped from my fangs and claws for centuries. But you think you can defeat me because of a god? I am greater than the gods they tremble at the mere mention of my name."To prove his point he easily destroyed the wooden barricade seperating him from the holy man. The priest looked uneased by the fact that the barricade was gone but his face hardened and he pulled out a vial of liquid and threw it at Auron. Just as it was about to reach him it mysteriously shattered and Auron grinned. "Come priest you seemed so confident in beating me whats wrong now? Heh I will make you regret challenging me." Auron charged and in a second struck the man to the ground. Blood pouring from his lip the man vainly shuffled back and pulled out prayer beads and began a prayer to his god for help. The sky rumbled deeply and the sky split unleashing a white hot bolt of lightning down on Auron. The priest smiled as the smoke faded and there was no sign of Auron. Then a voice sounded next to his ear "I must say priest you have entertained me with your fancy lights but now I grow tired of you." A clawed hand snaked around the priests throat and he was lifted into the air. As the air slowly left his lungs he pulled a small knife and pierced his heart "I will not be killed by a foul demon."As his body went limp a smile crept on his lips and the blade slipped from his hand. "You think you are safe because you died in the service of a god? Ha your soul is still mine." Auron drew the mans soul and corrupted and twisted his spiritual power until it fused with Aurons power increasing his strength greatly. He walked out of the village laughing but the villagers did not stop him. Deciding to test this new found might he gathered it into a large orb of complete demonic energy and threw it into the village. Igniting the entire area in a sea of black flame and he welcomed the screams as he absorbed the souls. "Now to find dear brother hehehe." Auron faded into the night silent as a shadow, Silent as death
