The air was cold as it brushed past the tall trees that stood in the park. The tall metal lamps lit the stone paths brightly, bathing two individuals in their light.

Julie looked up at Tora, she looked into his blue as she asked her question, her question that she knew would change her life forever.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDEBYdJl8z
"Please tell me..." she said her voice trembling ever so slightly. "What is a half blood?"
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfFFrlEyJS
Tora with his arms crossed looked down at Julie. He hated these kind of talks, for he knew that they rarely ever ended peacefully, but maybe this time would be different. Julie had already seen so much, and their was still so much to see.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJHgbp8Fpm
"Half Breed, Half blood, mixed one, it goes by many names, but its fundamentally the same thing in the very end." Tora said, his tone becoming gloomy and joyless.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBLchsgTLz
Julie could feel her heart racing, she could feel the goosebumps forming on her arms. It was almost as if she was about to hear a forbidden truth, known to a very few people.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7y3o3u4rs
"A half breed or Half Blood is a person with human blood as well as another species blood flowing through their veins."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Md7y5g241
"Another species?" Julie asked. "As in more than one."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XcSuCd9F0
"Ahhhh!" Tora groaned to himself. "I hate having these conversations. Their always so complicated."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj51FWdMGTg
Julie watched as Tora began to scratch his white hair, she could tell that he wasn't very good at explanations but she decided to stay quite and be patient, which was something that she was still getting use to.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoav3ClqAIs
"Remember how I was telling you about the two worlds. The world of light Assiah, and the world of darkness Qliphoth." Tora asked, sitting down next to Julie with an exhausted expression.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmtQa8oXWm
Julie nodded her head. "Yea."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcPRAzpKmu
Tora looked up at the starry night sky as he continued to explain. "These two worlds are apart of one single plane of existence, the spiritual plane."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa3J7jfrrR
"The spiritual Plane?" Julie asked still trying to come to terms that such a place could really exist.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNq8CJdbZJ
"This plane is filled with different creatures. Creatures talked about only in legend." Tora smirked as he looked at Julie's face, which seemed so shocked with disbelief, that she could hardly even breath. "Don't be shocked just yet." Tora laughed. "The Spiritual plane is vast, but it's hardly the only plane out their." Tora continued. "Half bloods are born when creatures belonging to these extra-dimensional planes, come to the mortal plane and have children with regular people." He explained. "I mean, it's pretty revolting and pathetic if you really think about it," Tora remarked with a grimace.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67Qw8VXiOp
"What do you mean?" Julie inquired, her brow furrowing in confusion.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIfSaOM9y9
Tora shook his head, his features twisting with disgust. "I mean, these depraved Inhumane creatures descend upon our humble planet solely for their base desires, with no regard for anything else," he explained, his tone laced with disdain. "It's truly abhorrent."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjkkDNpx5V
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mAOm49vfo
As Tora finished talking, he once again stood up from the bench and began to walk down the path that led out of the park.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD9vjEeVJz
"Wait!" Julie yelled running after Tora, and soon walking side by side him. "So are you really saying that I'm one of these Half Bloods?"
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNrnTL3PZ8
"Yep." Tora responded without care as he continued walking.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mPV4jQfy1
"How do you know." Julie asked. "I mean last time I checked I look human."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpFKHkg8dG
Tora looked at Julie and smirked. "Yes indeed you do, to bad it doesn't matter what you look like." Tora points to his nose. "It's the smell."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbvkH0UZio
"My smell?" Julie wanted to smell herself, but refrained from doing so, not wanting to look weird to this white haired stranger with superpowers.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAcXbhc5TG
"Half Bloods subconsciously produce an aura of power around themselves. This aura can be big or small but either way it gives off an exotic smell that acts like a beacon for many beings." Tora said. "If you don't learn how to control it, it will become a problem later, because in the end, power always attracts."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAXdsytAaX
["Well that would explain that."] Julie thought to herself, grinding her teeth in annoyance. "So how about you?"
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo4EsWEWjK
"What about me?" Tora asked confused.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXLdjQNd2w
"Yea, your a half blood as well right?"
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA0Yh7F2qN
Tora stopped walking, his eyes stooped low to the ground. Julie stood next to him, looking into his eyes, eyes that seemed so conflicted.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLDLaKpp82
"Yea, yea Im a half blood as well." Tora smirked.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4ucpHDvub
Julie could tell that this whole thing was a touchy subject to Tora. She remembered how the creature possessing Trevor's body was talking about his father, she remembered how Toras demeanor had done a one eighty just from the mere mention of his father.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq0v19MA0F
["Master of the blue flame."] "She thought to herself as she watched Tora continue his walk.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JZMcT1cry
"What's the next step?" Julie asked following close behind. "What should we do next."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnTxA86kqL
Tora looked relaxed, as if he was just enjoying the nightly walk. "Well." He said putting both his hands behind his head. "We have one stop to make first."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jfPWlQ2RQ
"Huh."
***
It sat in a dark and damp ally way, this creature who had taken the body of a young teenage boy. It's clothes where ripped to shreds, it's sharp dagger like nails where plunged deeply into the creatures head. Blood that shined like crimson crystal fell from its scalp and its needle like teeth pushed against each other.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPb9lZklcYm
"I'm so h-hungry." It said in pain. "Flesh, F-flesh, I need flesh."
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsnK1YTEPt
The creature with its long nails began to tear away at its own flesh, leaving deep scars etched on its cheeks.
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypqMtDalPe
"Man flesh, tasty fingers, moist liver, juicy heart." The creature chuckled to itself. "Foolish half bloods, hateful half breeds. I'll kill them." It swore as it stood up to its full height. "Then I'll eat them whole."
