Aaia stood atop one of the tallest buildings in the city, watching all those below him pass, left and right they went, as small as insects... Ironically, that's exactly how he thought of each and every one of them, insects who meant nothing and were easily slaughtered. A dark smile spread across Aaia's face when a few looked up at him, from his point he could not be noticed uinder the cover of darkness, plus the rain made it that much more difficult... some lives would end tonight, many many lives... All at his hands. He shuddered at the thought, a child like glee filling him. He looked down agai and scouted possible targets, feeling especially cruel tonight... He found the perfect one.. how careless people could be, to walk the streets of this dangerous place at night.. this one would learn
Aaia wasted no time, he leaned forward and fell from the building, arms folded for the moment, plummeting toward the ground headfirst. Fro the looks of things, he was committing suicide, but no.. no no no... Aaia pulled out of the fall at the last second, landing on his feet, in a position to draw his blade. He drew and, using the remaining force of his landing, he bounded straight forward, seemingly a shadow the whole time. The young woman he'd landed near was startled, but she thought nothing was wrong and just watches as Aaia disappeared into some nearby shadows. She turned to take a step, but a sharp pain ripped through her, every nerve ending in her was screaming in pain, something Aaia knew all too well. In his twisted mind, he could hear the cry of pain and it was a symphony to him, a beautiful symphony. Her dying scream helped him along too, he was now trembling with delight, the child-like glee returning to him all at once as he watched the fruits of his kill. The young woman fell in two, cut near the waist, but the cut was very precise. He had not aimed to divide her, but something within her...
The young woman had been pregnant and, upon very close inspection, aaia had hit his target on the spot. Within her womb, which was now visible, was a fetus, apparently very close to birth. In one half of her was the child's body, in the other half, the head... Aaia had hit his mark dead on and he smiled that same sinister smile from where he was sitting, in a tree not too far away, again under the cover of darkness. He had his hatana drawn and it was glowing bright red, the blood from the fresh kill snaking along the blade and diminishing over time, as if it is being absorbed.
From nearby, two armed men came and looked at the body, the looks on their faces that of pure disgust, as if they couldn't even imagine this crime being commited, but here it had happened, the result lying right at their feet in a twisted mess. Aaia smiled, here were two more fools..tonight was going good, but sadly, after these, he would have to leave or he would be swarmed with guards.. Although they were fools for trying to bring justice to this lawless town, they were powerful fools in great numbers. Aaia jumped fromt he tree and dashed straight at them, catching them completely off guard. Though they had heard him, his speed gave them no time to react.
Aaia threw his sword like a javelin, putting it through the first guard's head, pinning him to the wall, the crimson blade pulsing in its new sheath, almost as if it is alive and feeding on its victim... it'd be a bit funny if it weren't true.. The other guard only had time to watch the blade rocket through his comrade's head and, though he did turn to face Aaia, his world was almost instantly torn apart as Aaia snatched him up by the head with his clawed hand and grabbed his shoulder with his other hand. He did not stop his charge, but he did plant one hand firmly in place, allowing his clawed hand to easily remove the guard's head. Aaia skidded to a stop and dropped the body, holding the head in his hand, staring into its dead eyes. He threw his head back and loosed a maniacal laugh, a mix of glee and a sense of accomplishment, but it was short lived.. he could hear the others. Aaia smiles a wicked grin and crushed the head in his hand, watching the blood drip from his gauntlet briefly before retrieving his blade and jumping, a powerful jump which rocketed him to the top off the building, to his former vantage point and, with another jump, he was off again, back into the shadows from whence he came, leaving a mass of death behind him.... unspeakable acts which no human in their right mind would commit....he however, was not human...
OOC: Look at the length of this sucker!! *thinks he went just a lil overboard...just a lil*
