I hated this... I can hear my heart... it's... with that stupid Muran, but hell, I want it destroyed. NOW. He knows the secret to it, which exactly why I killed the Demon Lord, whom I promised my heart, literally, in exchange for power. I killed him, but he didn't know my other weakness, which Muran does. Being my Uncle, and more demonic than myself. I kicked a nearby wall, denting it. 'Sweet! My powers are coming back!'
I managed to stand, breaking the rope, 'Success!' I broke the door down, checking to see who was coming, no one. I sped through the... wherever I was... in the shadows, literally. Only spotting a few guards, I dispatched them quickly, they didn't even hear the wind graze past their ears.
Quickly, I found the room where Muran was, plotting, for something. Looked elaborate, but I didn't have time to figure it out, find my heart, and get the hell, out of there!
The pounding became more erratic, my focus centering on a pulsating slab of flesh in Muran's side pocket. I quickly swept in and grabbed a-hold of his neck.
I slammed him into a near wall, blood escaping his mouth, "Give me back my heart fucker, or I'll make you regret ever being born."
He smiled, sadistically, "You wouldn't kill your brother now would you?"
"You're not my brother, so drop the act!"
"Oh... but I am, do you know what happens when you eat a Harpies heart?"
Realization hit me, there were only few ways to become immortal and powerful, to be touched by a necromancer, to eat the flesh of a mermaid... or to eat a Harpies heart... and then, the two become one...
I punched him across the face, "YOU BASTARD! YOU KILLED MY BROTHER!"
"And your sisters, don't forget them."
I couldn't take it anymore, my nails dug into his neck, as I beat him to a bloody pulp with my other hand. "HOW COULD YOU?!"
He laughed, so I punched him again... but suddenly, I couldn't move, not an inch...
My gaze lowered, to meet his right hand, it was holding my heart.
"Release me."
With those two words, my hand moved quickly from his throat.
"Now, I order you to kiss me."
Luckily my voice box was still my own, "You're my uncle!"
"I'm not your real uncle, or I wouldn't need to eat your heart, I'd be a harpy myself."
He did speak the truth, my feet started moving of their own damn accord, 'STOP IT!'
But my thoughts weren't being registered, as I pressed my lips against Muran's, bile coming up in my throat.
He broke the kiss, and smiled at me, "Lovely."
"Go suck my non-existent dick."
"Hahahaha, sour tongue, I like that. But so sad to say... I'm going to eat your heart now, I can't WAIT to have your power, and for you to die at my feet."
"Do it, I'm not scared of you." I snarled.
He rose my heart to his mouth, and took a bite of it. It didn't hurt... which was strange... but I felt a little bit empty.
And true to his word, he finish off my heart in seconds, I could feel his power singing my hair, it was so intense. And yet, I was still alive. He looked at me in shock, "You're still alive?!"
"I guess so!" I quickly lunged at him, cutting off his head.
The blood spat everywhere, soaking me. I looked around the room, no one. I tore out his heart, and devoured it. The memories of my past... filling my head, it was so... strange... so... painful so...
I collapsed on the floor, sensing people coming towards me, I didn't care... for I was Alexandra Rose... and I could finally remember it...
