Hatchet the dragon
The starry sky was dark
indigo, with a few small clouds strolling by. A peculiar planet-sized red
Pentagram pulsed with energy over a modern looking city below. Faint red light
colored part of the sky like moonlight.
But this place wasn’t
peaceful New Orleans…it was Hell.
The city was in chaos.
Not the usual Turf Wars fought over by powerful demons. This was pandemonium,
even for the Inferno.
And speaking of infernos…
Raging fires lit up the
streets in furious oranges, devious reds and blinding yellows. They consumed
broken windows, and several wrecked cars. One burning car was on the road and
another was partway inside another building. A neon sign of a posing Angel Dust
stood in contrast to the light of the flames.
But that wasn’t all that
was occurring.
With shrieks and
laughter, horned voodoo imps wearing top hats and fancy black clothing raced
out of a store, carrying bags of food and money they had just looted. One imp
stood over a red screaming demon, holding a sharp knife over him. The demon screamed
as he was brutally stabbed. Another imp proudly held a red demon’s head on a
sharp pike. Two other demons sat at a table with a white tablecloth, watching
the carnage below.
And the deer.
Deer were everywhere, of
all shapes and sizes. The brown furry deer lay motionless in the street, at
least four unfortunate ones. Some were stags, some were does, one had white
spots on its coat. They all lay in pools of crimson blood. A horde of imps
gathered around one deer and began feasting. A skeleton deer stood in the
background. Three hovering shadow stags grinned evilly in various spots, their
eyes glowing red.
Jack, a furry brown
animal huddled in fear against a building. Cameron, a blonde haired woman,
stood with her back and arms against a wall, a look of sheer terror on her
face. Animals were bad enough for this therapist who suffered from Zoophobia. Animal-like
demons were even worse. Tom, the teenage black-wearing incubus, sat on top of
another building, legs dangling out.
Thankfully, the three
fellows glanced at a small portal off in the distance. Cameron silently called
them over and they raced through it, back to their home world. The demons weren’t
so lucky.
