A new beginning Chapter two

Chapter two

The fire spread inside the small room of the library,and the smoke became thicker with every passing second. Soon the librarian fell to the ground and did not move. Outside screams and shouting was heard as sting searched for the exit in the thick smoke. As he found it he smashed the door open and in the process breaking his paw. He looked at the crushed paw and wondered how he would manage with a broken paw when his body was dead. After a short moment he turned back to get the librarian. She laid on the same spot showing no signs of life, as he grabbed her she made a small noise that sounded like coughing. Sting began moving towards the exit of the library. He covered the young librarian with his wings to protect her from the flames that were tearing down the library. all around him there were flames and his skin began to slowly burn away. as he reached the exit the place began to fall down and he just made it out from the library before it collapsed down behind him. Outside people where staring in horror at him, most of his skin and flesh were gone from the fires. he were missing most of his flash at the back and head. Even his eyeballs were gone and only black holes with red light inside were left. he put down the young librarian and shouted for the healers "Healers! The young librarian needs help, she is terrible burned!". His voice were hollow and scary but the healers did not care as the came rushing towards him to get her. Sting followed close behind to the healing quarters of the church. When he went inside of the church he felt a strange feeling of becoming slowly burned. he sat down in a small room to rest even though he was not tired, but still he fell slowly into sleep.

As he began to dream he was in the middle of a cave which was hot and dark all he could see was a small red light in the end of the tunnel. He began walking towards it in a slowly manner. As he came closer it became slower and the heat stronger, also a small voice began to talk inside his head. "you have returned to me i see my puppet, and with great news also I see.". Sting stopped and looked around in the darkness, there where nothing there. when he turned back to where the red light had been it was gone and a face was staring him right in the eyes. IT lifted his hand and pointed at him. Sting began moving back, but he hit a wall. he was in a cage. The hand of the creature came closer and touched Sting right on the forehead. He instantly screamed out in pain. The creature began to smile, and pushed even harder. "You have such a nice appearance so it would have been a shame to only let you decay in the world when you make such a nice puppet. I will give you one last gift, just say the word of you curse and your flesh will be back when a claw from your paw touches your body". everything went black and he woke back up to the view of the high priest of Ravenhill sitting in front of him."why have you come to our peaceful town demon?" sting looked at the priest long time at him before answering" I need knowledge.". The old priest looked down at the floor where there was a book. He took it up and placed it in front of Sting as he left the room. Sting began inspecting the book before touching it. He did not want another accident with a flying book. He studied it for what seemed like hours, but in reality was days. when he had read it all he looked up. his body had began to rot and most of his bones showed. He tried the words he had been given in his dream and he put a claw on his left front leg. A small blue flame went through the claw and into the flesh. The fire began covering all of his body and he went away from all things that was made of wood or paper. After a moment the fire died out and revealed steaming new flesh and the paw was healed. Amazed by this power he walked out of the room and to the room where the librarian was. When he entered the healers still worked to heal her and they did not notice him. She was burnt terrible in her face and she was barely recognizable. she was not awake, but she was alive.

Sting stayed in town for a few more weeks, but he where not a welcome guest at the first. he had destroyed their ancient library and many have died in the fire. Sting was an outcast in this town and he had nothing to say about it, what could he had said. The only witness to the incident was cling to life by a thin tread. After a week something happened, In the middle of the night a horde of Dragons poured into town. They were not here by accident, they where here to plunder. They began attacking the locals and torching the houses in search of treasures. When they reached the tavern sting stood in the door. They stopped in front of him and the bandit leader came forward shouting " leave or feel our wrath dragon!". Sting began to laugh as he went down of the stairs. Sting just stood there laughing, as the leader charged at him. His iron spike tail struck Sting right at the heart and the blood poured down into the dirt. When the blood stopped dripping Sting still laughed. The leader became pale and backed away saying " what are you?!" sting stopped laughing and put a claw in the dirt and said "I am your worst nightmare. Now rise my minions and kill all this raiders!". All around him the ground started shaking, and skeletons came up from the dirt. The bandits began to run but the minion had awoken all around the city and the was no way of escape even the air was filled with flying skeleton birds which kept the raiders down. The battle was short and when the minions returned to their graves the raiders laid silent and deformed in a pool of blood and guts.
