Chapter One Wild curls of black smoke rose from the scene of the crime shadowing the full moon. Sharp flickering flames licked the sides of the house charring the wood and melting the vivid paint. A gathering of spectators congregated around the front of the house straining to see a part of the action while a police line tried to hold them back. No one paid any attention to the woman in the dark green cloak that partially covered her face. The firelight glimmered in her green eyes, a sadistically violent smile on her face as she watched the spectacle she had created. Firefighters were scurrying around trying to make sure that no one was inside the house but what they didn’t know was that she had taken care of the family before she set the fire. Thereby destroying any evidence she might have left. Nym was starting to get bored watching the flames until half the house collapsed almost crushing three firefighters. She giggled quietly and turned to leave. No one was going in the house for a very long time. She made her way down the street only pausing once to see the sight of the flames and smoke reaching for the sky and then she was on her way again heading to an unknown destination. She turned down a pitch-black alley and called out to the darkness softly. “Thrasher, come here.” She spoke as she leaned against the brick building to her right. Slowly her shadow moved and took on form. Half a bleached human skull covered the face only allowing the fangs of the creature to show. The top of its head came to a sharp point in the back and its huge hands had razor sharp nails that drug along the ground making an eerie grating sound. The same sharp nails were on its feet and as the creature walked forward toward its master they made soft ticking sounds. The creature was all black save for the white armlets and the knee portion of its body. It was thin and its eyes glowed red in the darkness. On its left arm a deep gash showed and crimson liquid flowed freely from the wound. “You did good tonight, Thrasher.” Nym praised. “I thought for a moment that one bitch was going to take a chunk out of me with that butcher knife. It was my fault but you saved me from possible discovery.” A deep growl escaped the creature’s lips as it rubbed against her hand. She pet it lovingly. “I was careless. And because of me you have been wounded.” Another deep growl and wine was its reply. She turned and grabbed out her dagger then cut her finger without flinching. The blood flowed and she gently took the creature’s wounded arm with her other hand and let her blood drip into the cut. The creature purred in its deep voice. The wound slowly healed until it was as if the creature had never been hurt before. She brought her finger to her lips and drank the blood until it stopped. She smiled down at her creature like a mother cooing over her child. “Is that better?” She asked and the creature purred again. She patted its head and started to walk away but stopped suddenly. Thrasher growled and walked in front of his master standing tall showing his loyalty to Nym. His stance was poised for a battle as it stared at the other shadow creature. It had no form but glowing yellow eyes burned in its darkness. “Your master, the Shadow Lord, wishes to speak to you.” It hissed. She shrugged as a smile crossed her beautiful face. “And if I refuse?” she asked nonchalantly. A hiss like laugh came from the creature. “You have no choice…” it said and the walls around her seemed to move with life. “Either you come with us peacefully or you will come forcefully. I prefer to use force but my master has said not to if you come quietly.” “Oh is that so?” she asked but her voice sounded bored. She looked down at Thrasher and smiled. “Why don’t you wake the others so that we can all discuss this?” as she finished her sweetly given command Thrasher howled and the darkness around them seemed to shrink away in fear. From her shadow four more creatures appeared. First came a giant lizard like creature that had sharp spines along its back and arms. Its tail was forked with venom filled needle sharp stingers. It curled into a ball showing only the spines and rolled in front of Nym. “Mynce, welcome.” She spoke softly. The creature unrolled from its deadly ball and hissed at the offending creature. Next came a huge half human half snake creature. Only the human like part was huge and muscular. Dark stripes covered its whole body. Its arms were gigantic with huge hands that could easily crush anything. A broken chain hung uselessly at its throat. Taking its place beside Nym she smiled at the creature that seemed so docile until she was threatened. “Krush, did you know, that evil little shadow over is threatening me?” Krush’s eyes visibly flashed red and every muscle tightened. Nym nodded and made a pouting face. “He threatened to hurt me if I don’t come with him.” she said turning to the next creature to form from her shadow. It was a demon that stood on all four with to giant fangs coming from its bottom lip up over his top. Along its back was deep blood red fur but only along it’s spine. A long wolf-like tail wagged at her. It’s eyes glowed red and a deep growl echoed. “Fangz good to see you.” She looked around and sighed. “Where his Skabb?” she asked impatiently tapping her boot. Finally from her shadow came the forth creature; it was small and seemed to have skin sloughing off itself. She smiled lovingly at it all the same. “I was beginning to worry Skabb.” She cooed and then looked up at the shadows that now began to shrink away even farther. “Now that everyone’s here I suppose we should settle this.” She growled.
