A loud yelp ensued through the darkness only to be followed by a snarl, a great beast with gray fur fell to the earth with a heavy thud. He drew himself forth once more, unable to back down from this fight, his pride wouldn't allow him such a thing. Blood cascades down his broad, furred chest, revealing that most of his neck was flayed with pieces of flesh and meat hanging limply off. This battle was not going well for him, but his thirst for power and change drove him onward, he wanted peace within the races, but his leader was hellbent on killing everything and anything. He turned those slate gray eyes to the smaller lycan before him, he was at least two times her size so anyone at first glance would've chosen the male to win this battle. However, the ring of riled up lycans would beg to differ, they knew, they all knew, that the near-anorexic female was alpha for a reason. His jaws part to pant heavily, his muscles felt heavier than what they should be, he had to end this now or else he would faint and likely die from blood loss.
He could feel it, the sudden intrusion into his mind, it felt like cold liquid mercury seeping into his brain, it was all too familiar. He couldn't do anything to stop this feeling from flooding his mind, all lycans had strong mental links with the pack, the alpha always had the strongest but she... she was unbelievable. She ripped through his mind as if all his barriers were nothing but paper, hooking onto memories that hurt him to remember as she dredge them up, she was cruel, the epitome of evil and hatred. He feel to his knees as she pulled up a memory, he could remember that day clearly he'd been forced to watch as Demetri tore into his mate's relentlessly, she had refused to do what the Alpha told her to do and Demetri on that day wasn't particularly in a good mood but that didn't give her any right to kill his mate. His chest heaved as the lycan sobbed outwardly, his large hands enveloping his cranium as if begging for the pain to stop, to allow him to forget.
The Shadow Demon, which she was aptly named by her pack in times of war, stood there unmoving with those emotionless electric azure orbs boring mercilessly into her opponent as he cried. The breeze drifts by to ruffle her shaggy, unkempt pitch ebony fur, revealing bare scars that litter her flesh. Unlike most female lycans, Demetri was highly unattractive, her attitude was cold and void of emotion, her sickly pale flesh when human lay in ruin with a patchwork of scars, and her electric blue eyes were highly unnerving as they seemed to rip through anyone's flesh with a mere stare. Suddenly, like smoke on the wind she seemed to evaporate from existence, or so thought any human observer, but Demetri was built with nearly impossible speed to mack up the lack in strength. She crashed head first into the larger lycan, jaws split open to reveal a gaping maw lined with well-used ivory fangs, he could see how large and black her pupils were as if they were sucking out his very soul.
A howl ripped through the silent night air only to be cut off into a gurgling choking sound as fangs sliced effortlessly through his throat, he had bee too distraught to move, to defend himself, but now he could be with his beloved as he crashed back into the earth. His blood feeding the hungry dirt as it spills upon the land, the small black lycan perched victoriously on the furred mound, her own fur slicked with crimson as if adorning warpaint. Tilting her head back, tattered ears flattening upon her skull as she emits a hauntingly long howl of victory, joined in by the rest of the pack with excited yipping barks from the younger generations who'd just only matured. Lowering her head as she listened to the chorus of howls, parting her jaws once more to allow her pink tongue to escape the darkness of her maw only to curl it over her bloodied muzzle, tasting the iron there before retracting it. Peace would never come...
Praise to my father,
Blessed by the water,
Black night, dark sky,
The devil's cry!
