Now let's enter into the story of Scarlet Luna.
I smiled bitterly before bending down getting on my knees, bowing once in respect before adjusting the sword upon my back. "Well mom, how is you're night going? I have come like usual," I spoke softly, my words directed at the gravestone. I couldn't help but shiver, getting a chill down my spine like I shouldn't be here. I heard movement of soil which made me perk my head up towards the noise that was five feet behind me. It was coming from a grave of a dead cheerleader, who died a few weeks ago from cancer. The grave seemed to shake a little as a look of pure horror and fear crossed my face, I tried to move but my leg's wouldn't move as I was frozen with fear.
A hand popped up out of the dirt of the grave, as it did I tried to move again and couldn't. What was going on? Why couldn't I move? As I continued to watch the grave, more of the body started to show. Another hand popped up, little by little i started to see the head. Torn flesh that was rotting fell onto the dirt, where the rest of the body was. I was memorized by this, especially due to me being frozen with fear that was indeed keeping me in place, but at the same time I wanted to watch what was going on. To see if the rumors was true of people coming back to life in other towns. This is the first time, I would witness something this big in my own home-town. The very first person to know what was going on. As I was caught up in my own thoughts the Cheerleader's body was fully emerged from the ground and was staring right at me.
I gasped as she started to walk towards me and my paralyzed body was broken from it's spell, I stood up drawing my sword and held it in front of me. "Don't come any closer, I'm warning you." The zombie stops as though she knew what I was saying. "Do you know what I am saying? If you do take a step back." I waited and noticed that she backed up a step after a few minutes. I tilted my head, "Are you able to talk?" The cheerleader shakes her head and looks at me blankly. "Are you dangerous? Are you out to kill people?" Once again she shakes her head to both of my questions. I lower my sword and sheathed it back up, her head tilts and it looks like it's about to fall off so I look away.
"I'm going to go back to praying, hopefully no one see's you while I do, everyone has been on their toes since the rumors started about people coming back to life. That it just became real than just fictional. I don't know how you are like this and how you came back to life but hopefully you don't turn from whatever you are to evil and try to kill me." I stop talking and I look at her and nod. Turning away from the dead cheerleader I start to go back to my knees and lower my head at my mother's grave, hoping she is watching over me. My mind starts to wonder why this is all happening and why was the rumors actually true? So many questions run through my mind once I started thinking of them.
I feel a brush against my side and hear rustling. I look over to see the dead cheerleader bowing her head respectfully, smiling at the sight I once again bow my head. Closing my eyes after lighting the candle again. With a soft light coming through my eyelids for once I'm actually smiling as I pray to my mom except for the normal which is crying. A soft wind blows through and I still feel and evil presence around, I start to stand up and turn around. "Who's there?" No answer came but I see a shadow move and my eye's widen, reaching for my sword when I start to see zombies coming out of the tree line. "This is not good," I look at the dead cheerleader as her eyes are wide as mine, she looks from the zombies to me. "Hide, I am strong enough to take them, someone is resurrecting them. These are not like you." She nods to me and starts moving closer to the bush behind me and my mom's gravestone.
A voice reaches out to me from the shadow's, "You don't know what you are up against. You should also take your own advice to your little zombie friend right there, or run for help in your precious little town."The voice sent a chill down my spine, I stood up taller and straighter. I will not be affected by this person. I will destroy his pet slaves he is sending out to me. I smile evilly as the aura around me darkens and starts to swirl around me, lifting up my hair. "You think you will be able to scare me so easily? I think you underestimated me." I unsheathed my sword and rush in, slashing and cutting off their heads as I take one by one down. Jumping off some of them to use it as momentum to do more damage against the swarm of zombies. By the time I reach the middle of the swarm they start to close of the entrance of what i just made to get to this point. I close my eyes to reach the aura that's inside me to bring forth some of my powers. As I do i see a light through my closed eyelids and I open them to see my sword glowing.
"What how?! How is that possible? I do not understand why you wield that kind of power." The voice calls out to me.I blink in surprise as well as the sword awakens in my hands and changes colors. My hair blowing out behind me. What was going on? Where did this power come from? A light to the side caught my attention, I look over between the zombies to see the necklace on the dead cheerleader glowing as well. I look down and notice my own necklace is also glowing different colors. Words whisper around me as I stare right at the guy who was hiding behind a tree and controlling these zombies.Bringing my sword up I make a s***h through the air as it cuts his chest, cutting his heart in half in an instant. He groans and drops to the ground disappearing into thin air. The zombies who was being controlled drops to the ground turning into bones.
I stare in disbelief at the sight, the glowing disappears from sight. Dropping to the ground exhausted from the rush of energy I had left my body.
