Inside a giant cathedral, there are many rows of seats filled with families. A man wearing blue and white robes stands behind a podium holding a large book of religious text.
"And Lightbringer called upon the Lightness of Raphael healing the two hundred injured Lightlords And Lightwarriors after this great feat Lightbringer called down the Lightness of Michel and gave the Lightlords And Lightwarriors unrivaled strength finally destroying Darkkiller the third incarnation of the Death Masia and brought lightness to darkness, saving the great city of Theogapi." The robed man preaches.
A family in the back corner, obviously put there because of their noisy history.
"But I don't want to get married to that fat fuck he's gross!" a young girl with blond hair and blue eyes screams.
"Don't talk like that in front of Timathin," a woman cries, cradling a baby.
"yeah, but his fat wallet isn't gross," a slightly older boy says smugly
"Enough crying about it Faith. You need to start acting like a grown-up." the older man beside the woman cradling the baby says, annoyed.
In a grassy field, twenty children, all thirteen to sixteen in age, all practicing swordplay in a synchronized pattern of movements. In front of them is a man guiding the twenty students.
"Good, that's enough warm-up time for sparing, Light faith, Lightjoy, you two go first," the teacher says strictly.
Faith play bites, "I'm going to get you back for last week I'm not losing to you again"
Joy bites back "those are just words. Let's see if you can back them up with action."
The two young girls skillfully clash. Eventually, after a surprisingly long battle, the victor is finally chosen.
Faith disarms Joy and puts her blade to Joy's neck. The two girls' faces come together so close that their noses almost touch. Looking into each other eyes, time slows down as well as their hearts. The two girls pop away from each other, both holding their own hands awkwardly.
"uh, good match, Light Joy," faith says akwardly
"heh yeah.. yeah, it was," Joy says with hesitation at first but finishing with happiness and a laugh.
"Hey, you wanna see something cool after practice," Joy says ominously.
The kids finally finish their practice. Running down a hill, all the kids rush to the road to head to their family's house for supper, except for Faith and Joy, who sit waiting for everyone to leave.
"Ok, looks like they're all gone. Come this way," Joy says.
The two girls run down to the other side of the hill, shaded by a whole bunch of trees. Coming down the hill, you can see a massive gave yard, giant tombs, and monuments of great nobles.
"Woooah, this place is awesome!" Faith yells with a giggle".
"You know, I heard some of these sculptures are haunted," Joy whispered.
"Hey, what's over that way," Faith asks curiously".
"I don't know I've never been over there," Joy says.
"let's check it out," Faith cried joyfully.
Faith grabs joys hand and runs playfully around a large dead tree blocking the view of their destination. Walking around the tree, they see two recently hung women next to each other in front of them a little sign.
looking terrified at the sight, joy says while shaking, "wa, what does it say, Faith.." Joy stutters.
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.
"These two criminals have been sentenced to death for the sin of Sexual Degeneracy." Faith slowly reads
"wa, what's Degeneracy?" Joy asks, slightly confused and still shaking
"I don't know, but I think we should go back," Faith says uneasily.
Running down the road towards a giant mansion, the two girls are protecting them selfs from the rain with their jackets.
"Come one joy we're almost to my house!"
The two girls finally reach the house opening the door and joyfully running up the stairs to Faith's room.
Faith and Joy both sit down on the floor. looking into each other's eyes, subconsciously searching for the same feeling they felt in that sparing match.
Faith wakes up in the morning to find joy in her bed face to face, and joy gives a loving smile to faith.
Inside the same mansion, there sits a man at the end of a large dinner table. A woman sits at the end of the table and a teenage son on the side. Coming down from the staring way, the two girls come innocently running down for breakfast.
"Good morning Faith.. and.. joy.." Faith's mother says, confused by Joy's presence.
"Since when was Joy here," Faith's older brother says bluntly
"I let her spend the night it, so she didn't have to walk in the rain," Faith explains
"Yeah, we slept together!" Joy cheers innocently.
A sudden ominous pause in the room
"What?... you can't do that!" Faiths mother yells.
"Grab the girl. We can't let anyone know about this!" her father yells.
"Stop squirming. Lock her in the chambers!" her father yells as he tackles Joy
Faith's father and mother argue about what to do inside the father's study.
"What do we do?" Her mother quietly cries.
"The best way to fix a problem is to go to the root cause and remove it for good," faiths father says in a scary and determined tone.
"What do you mean," the mother asks, almost scared that she knows the answer.
"The only way to save our daughter is to murder Joy." the father says maliciously.
"That's crazy. Do you know how much she would hate us," her mother says.
"So you would rather see her executed?" the father says abruptly
"No, I didn't say that, but even if we were to murder her, how would we even go about it?" faiths mother asks
"easy, we frame her. We're rich. The court will believe in anything a noble says for the right price Joy is just a mere peasant nothing more. Make them think she's practicing warlock magick" her father plots.
Kicking a rock along the road, Faith walks with her head down in sadness. Off in the distance is loud, angry mob she hears a cry she recognizes.
"joy?" she says, paranoid.
Faith runs over the crowd to find joy tied to a stick on top of a bonfire.
"Jooooooy" faith yells, unable to get to her because of the huge crowd.
Joy pitifully lets out a whimper to Faith, muffled by a gag.
The executor finally lights the fire as Faith watches Joy's skin melt as she screams in agony, a sight she will never forget.
Faith slowly walks toward her room inside the house, passing her parent's room and overhearing their discussion.
"The execution is today. I hope faith doesn't suspect anything," her mother says quietly and paranoid.
Don't worry. All we need to know is that the parasite is exterminated. Faith will never know we murdered Joy.
The two parents hear a loud tumble down the stairs.
After hearing about her parent's betrayal, Faith impulsively runs away into the forest.
as Faith runs deep threw the forest, she rants her hatred out."I'LL KILL THEM. I'LL KILL THEM ALL. I WILL SKIN THEM ALIVE AND FEED THEIR CORPSE TO THE DOGS!"
After a few hours of walking thew the forest fuming with darkness. In the middle of buttfuck nowhere, she finds a little one-man camp.
"Weird, there's no one.."
Her words are interrupted by a knife at her throat.
"What are you waiting for? Get it over with I have nothing more to lose!" she yells, ready for death.
The knife stays at her throat for a second or two, then is slowly taken down.
"I sense much darkness in you, young lady," a grizzled voice says meditatively.
Faith turns around to see a man in a straggly old robe and two daggers at his side with a large black beard and long hair covering his whole head.
"You say you have nothing to lose. Is this true?" the man asks.
"Correct, my life is but an empty husk waiting to deteriorate," she says, almost like a poem.
"What is your name, young one," the old man asks
"Faith," she says
"How would you like to kill Faith and be reborn as someone else, someone superior to Faith," he asks ominously.
"what do you mean reborn?" she asks.
"I mean to be reborn as a warlock assassin. I can train you if you can destroy the illusion you call Faith. I can sense that desperation for revenge... I can help you fulfill that destiny".
Faith's eyes filled with darkness "there is no Faith,"... she says quietly yet intimidatingly.
"gooood..." the warlock says ominously.
She kneels down at the warlock as the warlock lets out an evil laugh,
"muaahahahahaha!... aaahh now I think I shall name you... Satania Deathstrider".
At that moment, Satania Deathstrider's blonde light hair turned into dark black hair, and her beautiful ocean-blue eyes turned blood red.
Ten years later:
A woman in black plate armor with a black hooded cloak and black verticle slit tattoos across her eyes, black lipstick, and two large daggers with a shadowy demonic entity by her sides, almost like a beast of darkness.
"Theogapi will beg for mercy as I burn them alive as payment for their betrayal. MAY THERE BE DARKNESS TO LIGHTNESS!!" she yells into the decapitated head of a recently assassinated priest"
