Annie noticed that Desmond had stopped as they were approaching his street.  She looked back when Desmond stopped cold in his tracks, she could see a rather terrified look in his eyes as he stared at the rooftop of a house.  She turned to see a rather terrifying looking creature.  It had a strange feline like face with giant razor claws and a peculiar bright yellow eyes, the pupils were like sharp daggers that were meant to pierce the soul and fill it with cold fear.  It seemed to faze Desmond greatly, but Annie didn't even flinch.<br/><br/>She actually smirked a little and quickly drew her sword, the moonlight caused it's already bright blue glow to look almost heavenly in the light.  "Well, this mission might not have been a total waste after all" she said as she stood in a offensive stance.  The creature howled as it got on all fours and started to crawl like a bat towards them.  Annie calmly walked in front of Desmond, ready to defend him at all costs.  "Desmond, keep moving okay?  Go to your house, it's safe there.  NOW!" She said, not even looking at him, but her voice was serious enough.<br/><br/>The monster jumped to the ground, only a mere 6 feet away from Annie and Desmond.  She lifted her sword up and glared at the monster.  "Oh beast from the bowels of hell's fire, you shall be clensed of your sickness and cured of eternal damnation.  By order of the Watcher's Society and the angels above, I order you to repent!!" She recited with a fury near the end.  The monster started to run towards her, which caused a grin to slip on Annie's lips, "nice choice" she said as she ran straight at the massive beast.<br/><br/>The two collided at inhuman speeds, claws meeting metal as the monster and girl fought.  She managed to slice it's right arm off, causing it to howl in pain and black liquid started to spill on the pavement.  After almost having her head sliced off by the beast's other arm, Annie lunged back, 'I'm getting a little rusty, gotta keep up'.<br/>She took a few steps back and ran at the creature at full forced , jumping high into the air and stabbing her sword into the creature's heart, then quickly slicing it's neck.  The creature kept screaming as black blood continued to spurt from the sliced open parts.  Eventually the monster fell on the ground, finally dead.  Annie contimued to stab its heart till it was a pile of mush and she was out of breath.  She started to breath heavily as she looked at the damage she caused to the creature.  'Dang...went overboard again....gotta stay in control..'.<br/><br/>After a few seconds, Annie withdrew her sword and placed it back in it's holster.  She then bit her thumb as hard as she could till she drew blood and she let the droplets of blood fall on the dead body.  "Your soul is redeemed.  May you rest in peace" she said to the body.  Soon it started to turn completely white and glowed like a heavenly light.  The body turned into a smoky like fog and disappeared, along with all of the black blood.<br/><br/>Annie took a second to watch the clear night sky and sighed as she turned around and started walking to Desmond's location.
