Default Arrival of a Spirit of Vengence

In a clearing of a unknown forest with moonlight glowing down, there was 4 demons cornering a young woman. The young woman was screaming for help yet it seemed that no one was coming to save her. The demons taunted her and laughed at her predicament while thinking of how much they were going to enjoy their fresh meal.

Right above them was some shimmering. It was like water ripiling. It started off slow but increased in speed quickly. A figure then fell out landing inbetween the woman and the demons. The figure was obiviously male by the way the voice sounded when the figure moaned. He was wearing a dark trench coat with two swords strapped on his back. He also had a long chain wrapped around his chest and shoulders. He then stood up showing that he wore black pants and black boots with spurs on the back of them.

He looked up and brushed away a few strands of black hair that where blocking his eyes. When they were moved the demons and the woman saw that they were a shade of pale blue that seemed to have no pupil at all until you really looked. The figure glanced back and forth between the woman and the demons and sighed. He then drawed out one of his swords and pointed it at the demons.

The demons looked at him and started laughing. On of them then started speaking and said," You think that you can defeat us. Your just a pathetic human while we are powerful demons." The man didn't say anything, he just continued to look at them. The demon could have sworn he saw a flash of fire in his eyes. The demon didn't care though and said," We'll just have to make a meal of you too then. The more the merrier." The demon then charged forwards intending to crush the man infront of him.

The other three demons then saw a flash of light and saw that the demon charging had stopped. They also smelled something burning. The demon that had stopped was inthere way so they couldn't see what had happened. The demon then fell and the other three saw something that scared them. In the place of where the man had been there was a person with a flaming skull and a sword that on fire. It looked at them and walked slowly towards them. One demon swung his fist and hit the flaming skull person hitting him in the jaw. The demon felt statifaction at hearing the jaw breaking, but stared in horror at the flaming skull just fixed his jaw in place. The demon didn't have time to do anything else as it was cut in half.

The other two decided to make a run for it. The flaming skull figure then unwrapped the chain from around himself and spun it around he then threw it and watched as he wrapped around the two fleeing demons. He then lit the chain on fire burning the two demons. The figure then pulled the chain back and wrapped it around his shoulders and chest again. He then walked off and stopped as he heard the woman from earlier whimper. He looked back at her and said in a gravely voice," You..Innocent." The woman then fled and the figure watched her run and then returned back to normal.

The man then looked around and said to himself," well I'm certainly not in Kansas anymore." He then walked off in one direction hoping that he might find someone or find some civilization.
