Thread: Do you know, what you are truly Hunting for? [Darjeeling x TinyThings]

The former Aspect of Lust had been fast as the wind, but never outdid Anellia herself. But when she felt the back of her head getting slammed against the wall behind her, and she gave off a destorted whimper, she knew she was outdone this time. After she got free, she barely even managed to move her head, before the attack of her face arrived. While her hood could protect her from cold weather, and being recognized, it did little to soften this blow. She quickly moved her hands back onto the Demon's new wrist, trying her best to pull the powerful hand away. But while Anellia was fast, she was also considerably weak. Only slightly stronger than a human, but far from as strong as this Aspect, even though it probably wasn't even the strongest Demon out there. A feeling of hard sand-paper against her skin, the wall behind her forcefully dragged the hood down as she was pulled upwards, revealing her fiery red hair, soon being messed by the hard rock. A few bruises and cuts formed on the back of her head, causing thick blood to mingle with her red hair. Her hands attempted to punch the Demon's arm, moving on to it's face when getting nothing for her work. Her panting had gotten heavier and more frequent, panic clearly striking the Demon Hunter, when the painful dragging finally stopped. About to kick her attack, she was soon thrown on to the ground, dust blowing up from the ground when she landed. She coughed a few times, a string of blood leaving her mouth when she did. She was far more frail than the Barbarian Nephalim out there, and didn't do well with a beating like this. This was causing fear to spread, her mind dazed by this sudden feeling, having only felt this so rarely before. Anellia wanted to move up from the ground, weakly trying to, before the Demon was above her again. Instantly, she moved a hand to the Demon's wrist, the other defensively hiding her face from the Demon's wrath. She felt her end stepping closer. The cold reach of death, that had always been on her heels, tickling her spine, finally reached it's destination, now causing her entire body to writhe with a mixture of fear and pain. Her bright eyes gazed up to the Demon, as it hissed it's words down upon her. At first, it was obvious she didn't want to answer, knowing feel well, that to answer a Demon, was giving up. But she had no choice. She could not fight now. Not yet. You.. Already know it.. I bet.. I told your predecessors children... After I.. Pierced it's filthy heart with a bolt.. Anelia sneered back, obviously unable to hold back her spiteful tongue, still hiding behind her hand. A tear had started forming in the corner of her eye, now trickling down the side of her head, dragging some of the discreet black eyeliner. Her pride fought her fear of death, trying to make her move the shaky hand, and face the Demon properly. A soft gulp, warned the coming of her stubborn bravery, dropping her hand down by her side, to face the Aspect properly, sucking up all the tears of pain, threatening to drop. Anellia.. Anellia Schmitt.. She snarled, narrowing her eyes in an angry expression of disgust. Seeing the mess of her red hair on the ground, hearing the name and seeing her face properly, would probably bring to mind, who she was. She'd gotten quite a reputation among the Demons, like all wielders of the Hand Crossbows she had. The Aspect of Lust, had only been the height of her achievements, but was far from the only Demon she ever took down. Many more had fallen to her abilities. They even gave her a nickname. Anellia's breathing had gotten more controlled, now silent in the thick air around them, her chest was the only indicator, that she was still breathing. She resumed her wicked stare, glaring into the Demon's eyes, before speaking. And who are you? How is it even possible, for the title of Aspect, to move on to another? It's not just the title after all. You even stink like your predecessor... She snapped at the Demon, clearly staying defiant till the end.
