This abandoned street has a horrible secret... below the six abandoned houses lies a small Umbrella Lab. The entrance is hidden in the closets of the homes... strange moans are heard at night here.

329 Daisy lane and it seemed as if it would be the perfect place to start hunting down infected. So, she thought. Lilith had been walking around for nearly thirty minutes and there wasn't any sign of infected activity. With her eyes glued to the scenery she couldn't help but feel bored. "Wow. There is like nothing to do around here. Why did I think that London would any different than Las Vegas? " Lilith narrowed her eyes in frustration and then stomped her White leather heel on the ground briefly. " Oh yeah! I remember now. They promised me Infected and disease but all I see is.. " She turned her head around briefly and looked into each of the building complex windows. " PLAIN OLD BOREDOM!! " Lilith lifted her head to sky and shouted this. Almost, for all to hear. Maybe she hoped that the infected would come more easily with some encouragement.
Nope. Nothing at all. Her shout had done nothing. Minutes were ticking by and she still lay idle in the same spot. " Well, this is a waste! " Lilith said in a higher voiced, angry squeak. She crossed her arms against her chest and rest her fingertips under each of her arms. Her patience was beginning to ware thin. So, she decided to walk around and scout a little. Lilith took further steps of course with her usual heel to toe sensual walk; her legs crisscrossing with every step. " Maybe I killed them all? " She said aloud with a saddened tone. Almost, as if someone had taken her favorite bow away or she had lost something precious to her. Her motives were beginning to dwindle and she was losing all aspects of her entire reason for going to daisy lane.
Lilith stood out of the enclosed housing area and poked her head around the corner curiously. Her gaze catching something in the distance as her lips lifted to a malicious smile. " Bingo. " She leaned her body forward and ran from one side of the street to the other. Her body concealed by a nearby corner. Maybe He has some other friends nearby?? I should be careful regardless. It would be ironic for me to die after having said all that. She whispered this in her mind with a more cautious feel rather than cocky. Her senses were still open and she could feel nearly everything around her. The brisk breeze that blew by every few moments and the. " Oh god whats that! " Lilith screamed but covered her mouth with a squeak. She had smelled something putrid. Something, like rotten eggs and decayed flesh. Her eyes had begun to water. So, she blinked them repeatedly to not blur her vision.
She had not really expected that smell and it caught her off guard. Her squeak she had hoped wasn't loud enough to alert the infected near her. There just had to be a swarm of them for a stench that bad or did the streets really stink that horrid? Lilith poked her head around the corner yet again. Her blond bangs hanging off the edge and being fully visible. She just had to see where that smell was coming from and to her astonishment it was indeed what she had suspected. Really?? That many!! Lilith shrieked in her mind as She quickly pulled back and gulped nervously. Sure, she had prayed for some infected but not that many. Her heart begun to pound wildly in her chest as she stood against that cement wall, concealed by its shadows. Would she really take on a good 20 infected by herself?!
Her heart pounding wildly and her fingers itching for some practice. Man, was this girl torn between two worlds. She took one final breath as she closed her baby blue eyes with a hint of pearl white and opened them moments later. Lilith calmed her mind slowly by thinking of the freedom she had searched for and was given by means of force. " This is what you are here for. NOW MAN UP! "She started first with a low tone, barely a whisper but then it grew into a loud roar. Her adrenaline was about to go into over burst. Lilith was indeed ready. She pushed off the wall with her heels and reached for the bow on her back. " Showtime! " With one final word she reached for two Needle Thin arrows and drew them back against her bows strings. Her confidence had reached an all time high.
Lilith was not sure if this was exactly the right way to go about killing a swarm of infected by herself but the one thing she did know, was that she needed to prove to herself; that she was indeed strong. She jumped out of the corner and released her fingers grasp on the arrows, aiming for the first two she saw. Her arrows flew like rays of light as they left her bow and reached their target within a second flat.
The sudden attack was unexpected and the two infected were shot directly in the back of the head; their bodies falling limp to the ground merely milliseconds later. Their bodies leaking their diseased blood all over the streets as her arrow fell along with the constant flowing liquid. The other infected turned their bodies in Lilith's direction and set their sights on her. They all ran after her full speed with a blood gurgled screech.
Liliths eyes opened widely. It had just registered in her mind about what had just happened. She just killed two of the twenty infected and eighteen more were running after her. Like a hooker in heels, her body turned the other direction and she was gone. " Oh damn it!!! " She cursed under her breath as she reached inside of her white leather quiver and pulled out an explosive arrow. Lilith had no choice but to run. She did not exactly dress appropriate for hand to hand combat with eighteen zombies. With one faith in good will, she turned around and jumped back, drawing her arrow and firing it. "Sorry, love but we need to break up. " She screamed with gusto, trying to appear cute.
The horde of infected all ran after Lilith, each having a look of absolute terror on their decaying faces and in their blood gurgling screeches. The arrow came directly for the front line of the horde of infected, they had no way of dodging. It blew up a good four of them as limbs and body parts exploded into multiple pieces. They instantly became startled and pushed back for a second before shaking their heads ferociously from side to side. Blood spilled on the already ruined streets as they all darted straight for Lilith at top speed.
Her attack had worked and she even took out a good four of them. Liliths body pushed back slightly and she started to do multiple back flips, going further into the Daisy lane streets. She wanted to put as much distance between them and her as she could. Lilith halted to a complete stop as she dug her heels into the ground and was pushed back a distance. With a sly smile on her face she muttered " Fourteen to go. " Her eyes narrowed as she reached into her quiver and pulled out three more needle point arrows.She turned her bow horizontally and drew her three arrows back, firing them a second later. She knew exactly what she was doing, she hoped.
The arrows came rushing at the infected horde and hit the first three that were the closest to her. One arrow shooting the eye of an infected directly a few yards away from her. His body fell on the ground and the arrow drove deeper into his eye socket. Another arrow shot an infected in her vulnerable mouth as the arrow shot to the back of her skull and severed her top teeth and tongue, killing her near instantly. Her body fell with ease. Finally the last arrow shot right through an infected mans chest and severed his spinal cord. His body fell to the ground helplessly but he still continued to crawl after the defensive Lilith. With having only lost two and a half members of their horde; the infected still pressed on as eleven came rushing further still after Lilith. The distance vastly closing in.
Her confidence had almost fallen. Still eleven infected were rushing after her and one was crawling at a reasonable pace. In an attempt of desperation Lilith reached into her quiver and pulled out three arrows. Barely even knowing what they were, she fired them at the oncoming horde of infected.
The horde had just about reached Lilith when she drew three random arrows and fired them; Without her knowing what they were. The first arrow was an explosive arrow. It brushed pass the further left part of the infected, blowing a huge hole through one as it jettisoned back and knocked another into a wall, crushing its skull against it. Another random arrow fired had hit three close together infected and started burning their bodies to ash. They fell down on the ground in agonizing pain and were soon dead. It was an incineration arrow. The final arrow shot in a straight line and met with the nearest infected in her line of sight. It blew a small pin shaped hole through the middle of his forehead and his body fell as a reaction. He started to convulse from the sudden pressure of an arrow going through his brain. There was still a decent five left and they were now feet away from the lone archer.
Her smile came back within an instant of knowing there were only five infected left. This would be cake. Lilith jumped back on her heels and pulled two more needle pointed arrows from her quiver. Without so much as hesitation, she drew them against her bow string and aimed for the two closest to hers head. She fired the arrows with confidence in her eyes.
The arrows flew at the two horde nearest her. The one that was within arms length was shot in the head. His body fell and slid against the stone street gravel. The other arrow shot the one behind him and he was hit in the head, following suit. The other three infected were now within striking distance as they all lashed out with their arms and hands, aiming for poor Lilith.
Her plan had worked after all and there was only three left, about to be none. Lilith ducked quickly and rose her bow to one of the infected. She aimed for his head as her bows metallic razor edges were sure to meet with his neck. Her leg raised as a reaction to side kick another in the head as she attempted her double combo strike.
The three infected had failed in their attempt to strike her as she ducked. Her bows metallic razor blade met with the nearest infected to the side and cut his head clean off as it jettisoned into the air and fell down with a crack. His body falling limp and doing the same. Her combo attack was successful and both of the other two zombies were struck by her foot. One in the face by a heel, knocking it a distance away into a wall. Its forehead meeting with the side edge of a wall, bleeding out. While the other was pushed back and fell on their infected buttocks.
Lilith smiled maliciously as she did a side sweep against their faces and it worked. She twist her body and grabbed an explosive arrow at the same time. Her body turned to now face the infected as she drew the arrow against her blood soaked bow and fired it. " Bye Bye. " Lilith said with a smirk as her victory had finally come to fruition.
The infected fell down and tried to stand. Its face met with the explosive arrow and blew up. It spurt out a fountain of infected blood and fell backwards onto the ground.
She looked at the dead corpses around her and sighed. " Next time, I will not complain at all. " Her eyes closed as she turned her bow to the side, letting the blood drip off completely. " Thank god I customized my bow this way. " Lilith smiled as she turned around and started to walk away.

Eric had been making his way down the street some time after the ruckus that took place there minutes ago. His face was tired and dirty, his clothes beat up and worn here and there. All in all though, he was in a pretty good mood making his way into what looked like a street littered with corpses.
"Ay, looks like someone had themselves some fun, they did. Goddamn massacre or somethin'" he said to himself, lightly kicking one of the bodies and chuckling.
The man had been travelling for months now on foot. It wasn't until recently he'd caught a nice little ride from the states and came back home in search for any relatives in good ol Ireland. That was a month or two ago though and everyone was pretty much dead there too. So here he was now, wandering through London aimlessly.
He'd pulled a cigarette out of his coat pocket and flicked it into his mouth. Scratching at the back of his head, shifting his hat around as he did so, he'd lit it and took in a deep inhale before blowing out a thick smog of smoke. He squinted his eyes a bit and looked about, observing the atmosphere.
"Wonder what did it all?" he asked, crouching down to get a good look at one that was missing chunks of it's body.

Lilith had just about left the vicinity when she felt the atmosphere change around her. Everyone possess that sixth sense and hers was acting up immensely at the moment. She turned her body around and saw a figure in the distance. He was kicking one of the corpses that she had first killed. Her eyes narrowed as a reaction. Not knowing whether or not to consider him friend or foe. With her eyes still on her surroundings, she decided to limp forward. Her leg being slightly injured from her previous kick against two infected. What exactly could he want?? Lilith thought to herself in a sour tone.
She made her way over the figure as fast as she could but ended up dragging her foot alongside the cobblestone gravel of the daisy lane street. Her foot was throbbing but her hands were still itching for some action. Why can't I ever control these urges or just get rid of them altogether?! Lilith always asked herself this question constantly. Not sure how to answer herself. She raised her bow in suspicion and reached for an arrow from her quiver. Lucky for her it was an explosive one. Her body made its way over to the figure as she was starting to see more details on it. tall, bulky and A man?! Her mind shrieked with glee as well as even more suspicion.
Lilith kept her distance as she tried to etched closer towards the figure. " Why did I kick those infected? " She wondered to herself aloud in an almost whimpering voice. Her eyes still narrowed and her mind still wary of the figure. Lilith raised her bow in the figures direction and held the explosive arrow close in hand. " Who are you?!! " She shouted from several yards away, not wanting to get too close. Lilith kept her stance firm and ignored her pain. Unlike most people who got injured; she would not allow herself to seem that way. " I won't ask you again. " Her voice was stern and firm as were her eyes, showing no hint of fear but maybe of slight exhaustion and pain.

Eric drew in a puff of precious nicotine before approaching the woman, blowing smoke into her general direction. She recoiled, grip tightening around her bow. He'd looked her up and down and gave out a devious lop sided smirk. This broad really thought she was intimidating. That wasn't moxie, it was just sheer stupidity.
"Eh Lass, mind puttin off the gunner chick rouse, wouldja? It's a bit of a cliche, ya know?" he responded before looking back at a few corpses.
"You do all this? Not bad. A little overkill, but not bad," he told her.

Lilith's eyes did not falter at all. Even as he dissed and made fun of her coyly. She positioned her head in his general direction and nodded. " What If I did? It is not over kill when it is survival. They got in my way when I was practicing. I had to dispatch them the most efficient way I knew how. " Her bow was not lowered despite his request. Lilith did not trust this man and she certainly had no reason to. She limped closer to him and bit her bottom lip in anxiety. Her heart was beginning to pound loud again. It was no unusual thing for her. Lilith was getting an adrenaline rush. Keep yourself calm Lilith. Even injured you can take down this man blindfolded. She reassured herself and nodded her head subconsciously. Her hope was that she didn't have to fight but she would if need be.

Eric took in one last drag before dropping the cig onto the blood soaked pavement without putting it out, the blood would do it for him. He then walked passed her, cracking his neck and then knuckles as most tough guys do. This bird had an attitude and wasn't worth his time as of now. Brandishing his weapon he said clear and aloud:
"Aye, lass I get it, backin' off now. Just askin' a question is all," he told her. It wasn't long that she was following him and he could make out her footsteps behind him. Of course she was following, she was a survivor. Tough b*tch or not, most people didn't want to be alone.
Assuming this was why she wouldn't p*ss off, Eric stoped and turned to her again. "Alright, I'll bite. What the hell are you doing out here with hordes of undead? Shouldn't you be hanging at a strip joint or some hellhole like that?" he asked.

Quicksilver, John, ‘That Thing’ as he had been called before, had no clue what to do with himself. He didn’t even know what to call himself, now that he thought of it. He’d stuck with a name, sure, passed it on to people and whatnot, but it had never been his name. He’ been named a lot of things in his time, but he didn’t know what to call himself now. He could think of a name, sure, but could people change their names when they didn’t like the origins of the old ones?
He wasn’t exactly a person, so he supposed he didn’t have to worry about that.
Right now he was sitting on top of a house, looking at the sky. He’d never got the chance to do something so… He wanted to say useless. He’d always had things to do, always had a mission to be on or someone to help. He’d never been able to just sit and enjoy the air, the sun, the sky. It was a real shame. He’d never quite noticed what he was missing.
And, of course, something drew him away from it. Something was always ready to come in and f**k up his good time. He stood up and stretched his arms, hearing the noise off in the distance. His ears could hear a pin drop on a pillow from a mile away, or so he liked the believe. He didn’t know if they were really that refined, but he could hear the signs of a relatively silent battle a ways away. It was good enough for him.
Using the rooftops to move, finding no trouble in clearing the distances that were sometimes twenty or more feet, he overlooked the massacre. Someone knew what they were doing, that was for sure. Voices to his right caught his attention, and he looked at the owners intently. His cloak was on, blending him to the air and materials around him, ensuring he was invisible to them. More people who looked like they may be in trouble soon, if another crowd like this came along. The girl looked like she was favoring one leg over the other. The guy, he looked like s*** in general.
He wondered if he would help them if the time came. Wondered if he wanted to. Helping people for no reason, it’d gotten him so far. And then his ass had been tossed out on the streets when no one wanted to work with a monster anymore. Seemed like he got tossed out on his ass quite a few times.
He continued to watch them, knowing in his heart he wouldn’t let them get mobbed by a group like that again. It was his normal MO, wander around and pull people out of hot water. Seemed to have worked for him in the past, but it always came back to bite him in the ass. Or at least throw him out on his ass.

Lilith smirked at him. He was someone who was very bold and thick headed, perhaps not a liar and someone she could come to trust. With her head held high she walked passed him and spoke briefly into his ear " I am not an enemy but I can be. I am just looking for a guard or a scape goat at least til we get somewhere safe. " She breathed heavy in his ear and put her lips right to them. Her intentions she had already made clear but then again everyone has other objectives than what they usually say.
Lilith walked passed him and now took the lead. " I will lead the way just so you know I won't stab you in your back. " With her eyes more relaxed; she took a great incentive to scout the surroundings with her eyes. Her eyes were known to be her best feature for combat and rarely missed any details. Not to say she doesn't mess up. Lilith turned around briefly to look him in the eyes " So, what do you say Handsome? " Hint of seriousness and seduction in her voice.

Eric sneered and stuck his pinky in his ear, twirling it around a bit before pulling it out and wiping it on the side of his pants. That was complete invasion of personal space and he was going to make sh*t clear that it wasn't going to happen again. As far as travelling with this tramp went, he would humor it for awhile. Just because it'd been awhile since he ventured with anyone anywhere.
"Next time keep your face out of mine and we'll be alright," he told her firmly before moving on, stomping ahead of her and muttering several explicitives.
Moving further along the street, they'd neared the end of it which introduced them to what sounded like howls coming from a block away. He also couldn't help but notice the countless flocks of crows that watched them through beedy eyes from roof tops and powerlines.
"Name's Eric, by the way..." he said, keeping his eyes up at the birds and his ears open for any of the howls. Of course little ways away, there'd been a pack of undead mutts making route toward where they smelled the faint scent of fresh flesh on 329 Daisy Lane...

Quicksilver’s pointed ears perked up at the sounds of the dogs, doing the closest thing he could do to cursing. A low growl, that sounded much like a cougar’s, sounded in his throat. He hated the dogs. Not because they posed a real threat to him, no. He just hated dogs, live and dead. He had no clue why.
He could see them, now that he looked for them. Several blocks down, it looked like. Letting out a sigh, he planted his legs on the roof and bent his knees, gauging his jump for a few seconds before leaping through the air. Mid flight, he pulled out a knife and waited for gravity to do the work for him.
Still invisible, he landed on the back of one of the dogs, snapping its bones from the impact while Quicksilver was unharmed. The dog let out yelps as it tried to move with a broken back, the noise ceasing when Quicksilver slipped the blade into the base of hits head, under the skull.
The invisible form stood, on guard while some of the dogs tried to find him and the others kept after the meal they could see.

Lilith was being very friendly with the man who she had just met but of course this was her usual act. Eventually, she would use him however she saw fit but for the time being she would let him play guide. She was never exactly trusting of anyone in her life. So, why would she start now? With his eyes distracted, she knew that he had spotted something. He would keep his eyes on the rooftops. So, she figured she should keep her eyes on the ground level. After having walked a good distance they heard a low but nearby growl. It could be heard a short distance away and only seemed to grow with each step.
" My name is Lilith. It is nice to meet you. " She finally decided to answer him. Lilith had no intentions of traveling with this man but until her leg recovered, then she would have no choice but to cooperate. Her expression had started to fade and she looked more depressed. The pain in her leg was starting to bother her. In the back of her mind she really wanted to just snap her leg off and replace it. Of course she did not have any sort of replacement limb or device. So, it was just a twisted fantasy.
The further along they went, the tighter Lilith held her bow. She limped cautiously into the area and shifted her eyes from figure to figure. Her intuition was telling her that something was nearby and that it was best to limit conversation until the eerie feeling had cleared. With worry on her mind she decided to grasp her explosive arrow tightly. With an arrow in one hand and a bow in the other, she couldn't help but become excited. It wouldn't be long until her fingers would start to itch again. Only Lilith knew what this meant. It meant one of two things. Either something serious was about to happen or that she was excited.
Lilith opened her mouth and spoke to Eric in a serious emotionless tone. " Something Is about to happen. I can feel it in my finger tips and bow. " She was extremely becoming weary now. Her senses were now fully awakening and she could feel her heart beginning to pound again. Her head vastly became dizzy. It was obvious to her that her adrenaline had started to build. Calm down Lilith. You are in control of everything. If he has to become a sacrifice this early then so be it. He is nothing and you are everything. Lilith comforted herself with a reassuring tone. She held her eyes vastly to the alleyways and housing complex's.
That feeling inside of her only grew worse. She knew that if that sound meant zombie dogs, then they would have to fight for their lives. This lucky bastard was not injured at all and didn't even have to fight twenty infected in one go. Lilith knew he had a better chance to survive than she did. While the thought of anger crossed her mind, she instantly shook her head from side to side, trying to shake loose any thoughts that might distract her
The hairs on the back of her neck and arms had now stood to full attention. This wasn't good. She turned her body. So, she was back to back with Eric. “ Keep your eyes peeled and reflex's sharp. I have a bad feeling. We are in this small area and its a perfect death trap. " Her breathing had only quickened since her heart had started pounding. Lilith was starting to lose herself in the pain of her leg and the anxious feelings her heart was limiting. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see the sun beginning to set. She knew she needed to find shelter and fast. Her good intentions told her to tell Eric about the conditions of the sun but her instincts said another thing. She would have a better chance of survival in the dark.

Eric had kept his handgun out, both hands tightly wrapped around the weapon and his arms firmly held out, fixing his aim on anything that seemed suspicious. When they finally stepped onto the end of the block, they could hear an inhuman growl and the sounds of flesh being ripped apart from a few miles away. Whatever it was, another dog's cry hasd echoed through the desolate wasteland that was once a peaceful street.
The damned crows began to flock into clusters and dove at the man and woman with intent to peck and pick at anything they could. Eric dove out of the way, rolling behind an old, broken down, car. The cluster that attacked him had pulled themselves upward from diving into concrete, smoothly flocking over the car he'd squoze himself under.
His heart pumped fast as he glanced from under the car to see the other clusters go for Lilith. He'd waited a bit before lurching his upperbody out from the undercarriage, taking shots at the birds, picking off two of them that were the closest. Another pair had darted toward him, forcing him to roll back under and their beaks to pang against cold cement.
"Heh, f**kin' birds," he grunted.

Moving through a nearby ally of the group of Lilith and Eric, Avalon came to a sudden halt, spinning around to point her hand gun down the ally. With a deep breathe she took aim, and pulled the trigged to fire the bullet which spiral forward into the front leg of a nice gruesome dog. ~Gotcha.~ She thought to herself, moving the site down the length of the animal, laying on the ground trying to stand once more, the barrel coming in line with that of the skull.
Another breathe, and fire, the bullet piercing through the skull into the head of the animal killing the beast in a split second. With the coast somewhat clear for the moment, Avalon stood, opening the clip to her handgun. ~One..Two..Four..Eight shots left for this clip.~ She took mental note of, making sure that every last bullet was accounted for, no ammo was to be wasted. Quickly she placed the clip back into the rear of the gun, cocking the bullet into the barrel for use.
At this moment gunshots were heard from the streets at the other end of the ally, ~What the?~ A thought ran through her mind, her body slowly shifting to look down at the streets, no emotion shown other than a slight sign of curiosity. Slowly she stepped, taking each footing with care, heading to the end of the ally to figure what was making such noise. A calm state of mind was kept, and her gun was at the ready, even anything was even to try and scare her at this point they would receive a nice present between the eyes.

((OOC: I didn't think it would be fair to take all day and night revising. So, here is what I have for my post. I didn't revise anything pass the first three paragraphs. Please forgive me for wasting time and the poor quality of my post))
Nightfall was starting to come sooner then expected and their daylight had begun to fade fast. They were not out of 329 Daisy Lane completely. Lilith's nerves had only grown worse as her eyes shifted from shadow to shadow. It was so dark that they were all beginning to look the same. A loud growling sound could be heard in the nearby distance. This was not good at all. She decided to turn around and face the direction the growling had come from. “ What was that?! “ Her voiced instantly climbed as she shrieked in shock. A sudden flock of ravens had suddenly attacked both her and Eric. They darted after her, squawking, and cawing with every flap of their ravenous wings.
Liliths first reaction was to dodge the crows and take them out without wasting too much time. She wasted no time further and jumped to the side as they came at her with killing intent. Her body tumbled and rolled against the cobblestone pavement as she tucked her arms and legs inward, doing a somber salt into a nearby corner. This had to end fast, those dogs were sure to be high on their tail soon.
The crows were inhumanely starving and so attacked Lilith and Eric. They came at lilith head on, squawking and flapping their wings ferociously. The agile bodied Lilith dodged into a nearby street corner and completely evaded them. Their attack had missed and they became riled up, changing the formation of their flock and guided their wings in the direction Lilith was headed. Each one looking like miniature black daggers as they all aimed to kill the woman.
Lilith wanted nothing more than these ravens to leave them alone but obviously that wasn't going to happen. She pulled her wounded leg off the ground and placed all of her weight on it. There was no choice now, she had to take some kind of action. Her mind cleared for that moment and she raised her bow to oncoming flock of ravens. Lilith gripped her explosive arrow firmly in hand and drew it back against her bows wire. She drew it back as far as she could and released it with an elicit moan. Her body was reacting to her sore leg and the pressure being placed on it.
They were instantly hit by the arrow and an explosion followed soon after. Their movement startled for a second as three and a half ravens fell to pieces. With their movement startled , the crows blasted in Lilith’s direction at Top speed. She would need to act fast if she were to survive or dodge in time.
The crows were struck with the arrow and some were taken down. Lilith's eyes opened widely in reaction. She didn't exactly expect them to be alive after that hit. Her eyes narrowed and she knew these thing needed be taken down with a much stronger force. Lilith’s mind was off in another place as she tried to think of something quickly. She was throwing together all sorts of thoughts and scenario’s when it suddenly it her. Of course! Her incineration arrow. Lilith knew she had one shot or she would be dead. Without wasting much time she put more pressure on her leg and darted abrasively to the side. She had goose bumps as her body moved and the rough texture of the cobblestone cement on the side of her waist, did not make her feel any more uneasy. Her chance was now or never.
Lilith reached her hand into the quiver on her back, searching frantically for a bulky type arrow. She twist her bow to the side and aimed it at the oncoming flock of raven. They were angry and wanted revenge. Her eyes suddenly narrowed further as she pulled out her incineration arrow and drew it against her sideways bow tightly “ I hope your in the mood for some soul food Eric! “ Lilith said cutely in her higher pitched, sensual tone. She then released her flat tipped arrow with a smile on her face. Her moment to make it or break it was now.
The crows dashed at Lilith at top speed and right as they were about to hit her, she darted to the side and bypassed them. They instantly took the sky and changed formation. Their killer blood lust had only gotten worse as they came down like one giant black missile from the sky. The flat tipped arrow came at them at top peed and hit the tip of the middle crows beak. The arrow then released some kind of gas, that covered all of the surrounding crows. Within a mile second later the true effect took place and their feathers caught on fire. The giant black missal had now turned into an explosion of flame and smoke. A burning flesh smell soon filled the air as a cascading rain of black feathers soon followed.
Lilith smiled proudly to herself and hoisted herself to one knee, holding her right side. “ Can I cook or can I cook?! “ She said cutely with the same previously used voice. One of her eyes closed because of the scrape to her side and the coursing pain that shot through her even more sore leg. Lilith had never seen a more beautiful sight. The cascading raven feathers made it seem very poetic. A sky raining black feathers as to tell the world that the angels have fallen and survival is up to them alone. Her hope was not gone but her faith in the gods had perished.
