Demons Everywhere [Minor Demonic Incursion]

“You can’t be serious,” she said, scoffing at the large man. “Let me get this straight. Alessandra Arcuri is scared to put her life on the line and refuses to protect the innocent townsfolk,” he stated with a questioning look. It was almost as if he knew the right triggers. Alessa gave a dismissive frown. “How dare you?” she asked, before turning away from the man and walking out the gates. She could have sworn she heard the quartermaster snicker behind her back, but she didn’t care to bicker. The lord will give her another chance to put him in his place, she was sure.
Now, she put up a brave front and walked into the streets, but had no idea how she was going to survive this. The woman regretted sending her daughter away to round up some freaks. Had she known she would be in this situation, she wouldn’t have done that. Now she had no one to protect her. Ha! One would have thought she was worried for her daughter over herself. Why would she? Lucrezia was a sinner and it wasn’t her place to forgive her sins. Besides, while she would never admit it, deep down, she knew her daughter was a better fighter than she would ever be.

She was headed back towards the church after having rounded up the heretics she was ordered to capture. She had not had the luxury of time to conduct any investigation of her own, she put blind faith in the one who had made the request. Why wouldn't she, it was made by her mother after all... She had vowed to earn her forgiveness, for it was the only way to seek repentance for her crimes. Lucrezia had sworn she would do whatever it took.
When one of them started clawing at the ground and made it tougher for her to drag them along, she offered a swift kick to his nether regions. 'Don't make this harder than it has to be.' She said, rather coldly. A hand encased in the metallic glove rose to flick away a bead of sweat. The sun was high and yet the fire roared, almost in an attempt to outshine the glowing ball of fire that hung in the sky. Of course, it had no chance. Lucrezia did not fear the light, nor did she fear the cleansing fire. The young girl knew there was so much more at stake and despite her tender age, she could already see several practical uses for these sinners, they could make excellent baits.

Alessa made her way towards the smoke. She turned corners very slowly and as silently as she could. So far, she found nothing except the dead. No survivors. No demons. She was glad to have found neither. Dealing with the half-dead was as unpleasant as dealing with demons. She figured she would just walk until the fire, survey the area and head back to the church. She was supposed to look further deep, but no one had to know she didn’t.
Her plan sounded even more plausible when she finally saw movement. It was no demon. In fact, it was a very familiar figure. Lucrezia! Boy, was she glad to see her daughter in the middle of a demon-infested massacre. Not caring about the noise her armour made anymore, she began walking briskly towards her daughter. She watched her dragging three bodies—no, not bodies; they weren’t dead yet, but very close to it. Alessa wanted to do nothing but leave them to die and head back to the church’s safety. Alas! She couldn’t possibly suggest that out loud.
“There must be a better way to move them,” she said, once she was in earshot of her daughter. No ‘good to see you unharmed’ or any other loving greeting. This was how Alessa was; perhaps it would be surprising to Lucrezia if she did say something uncharacteristic like that.
