The smell of blood and bodies lingered in the air, yet she ran.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAH"
The baby cradled in her arms screamed and cried, she wondered if he knew what had happened. The blood continued to drop down her arm.
"They'll find me if I leave this trail for them." She tears a large piece of her dress off, wrapping the clothing around her large gash, stopping the bleeding for some time. The girl continues to run turning frequently to see if she is being persuade.
"WAAHHHHHHHHHH."
She looks down to the baby hushing him.
"It won't matter if I stop leaving my trail, if this little brat doesn't shut up."
"Hush, hus-
The girl looks up cornered at a cliff, the wind howling at the girl.
"There, that's the Girl!"
She shoots around looking to the purple clad men.
"Hand the boy over girl, lord Set doesn't care for you!"

"S-set?"
"Just hand the kid over Osiris!"
"I won't give him to you!"
"Osiris please!"
"No.."
The guard sighs a year flys down his ear.
"So be it.."
The guard unsheaths his sword raising it to the girl. But just like that the bushes rustle and a sword hilt clinks against it's sleeve. Osiris uncovers her eyes preparing for whatever she would see. Though she definitely wasn't expecting the guards head to be gone.
"What has happened guard?"
She turns to the voice.
"Anubis!"
"L-lord Grey'Mor, I-I can explain!"
"I'm sure."
*Clink*
He slashed his sword across the guards neck severing his head. Then he turns to Osiris.
"What has happened girl."
"Anubis they came out of no where!"
"The guards?"
"They were our own men girl."
"But their are more!"
"Many men clad in purple armor!"
"Man I just can't have one day of clear meditation."
He chuckles, at the thought.
"Father and the siblings can handle any normal rebels, I need to get you to saf-
"It's not just any rebels Anubis!"
He throws back a look at Osiris, she jumps a little.
"How so?"
"That guard said lord Set!"
"Set?!"
Anubis turns toward the road.
"Get to the road and to my boat Osiris."
He looks back to her.
"And get that cut healing as soon as you can."
She grabs his arm, tears flowing down her eyes.
"What are you going to do Anubis?"
He pauses staring to the stars. The wind from the cliff howls again throwing his cloak into the wind. He dark blue hair blending into the night sky. He smirks clenching his hand around his blade.
"Whatever I must to.
"Get going Osiris."
She starts running beginning to cry as she goes. Knowing that Anubis is walking to his demise.
"Osiris."
She turns back to Anubis tears streaming down his eyes.
"Take my knife."
He throws a dagger at her feet.
"Clan Grey'Mors dragon tail is my prized possession."
He winks at her and as his eye opens his his left side bursts into black flames, his eye color changes to a bright red from the blue they were before.
"Ring of power summons Leonaros, devouring flame!"
The rest of the side of his body erupts into flames.
He turns back to the houses direction.
"I will reclaim it when we meet again."
He continues walking, and a blade of pure darkness appears out of thin air. the white light slowly fades into view surrounding and consuming Anubis as he continues to the burning house.
