Rise of Evil Flame Princess

Prologue

(Finn's POV)

I ran all the way back to the fort. When I became nearer, I noticed a small emerging orange glow from inside the house. I haven't good smelling senses but I was quite certain that I smelt the scent of burning wood.

I opened the door and darkness fell before me. It was dark at twilight, and nearly everyone I passed by was asleep.

At the corner of my eye I caught something move, a dark figure sulking in the corner of the room. I ignored it, but planned to investigate later.

I had to find Jake first.

I climbed up the stairs that led to our bedroom. It was dark, so I felt for the switch and flicked it open. What I saw on the floor was horrid, so horrid that I gasped.

His lifeless body lay on the ground, splattered with blood. His face was burnt, as so was his whole body, as if he was burnt alive. He had scorched foot prints on his stomach, possibly because the murderer had stepped on him. There was a blank expression on his face. Like the murderer had sneaked behind him disguised as a shadow.
He had showed no mercy. And neither will I when I deal with him.
I ran toward him and hugged him. And I felt hot tears of sorrow form at my eyes. He was dead. It was the horrible truth. My best friend, my brother.
Murdered by my another. Sadly, I did not know.

I ran toward him and hugged his body.

"Jake! I'm so sorry I didn't save you…Forgive me Jake!" I shouted through sobs. I caressed him between my arms.

I never have felt so much pain, suffering and sorrow.

I vow to avenge his death.

I remembered the mysterious dark figure downstairs, so I left his body behind and headed there.

When I came down the last foot of steps, I grabbed my sword and drew it in front of me.

"Who are you?" I called out, hoping to get the creature's attention. "Show yourself, you savage beast!"

From the corner, two blood red eyes opened and looked at me with hate. I saw no mercy in those eyes.

"Who are you? Did you kill Jake? WHY?"

I want to know, why? Why did he kill Jake? Jake never had a fault on anyone.

"Stay away from me!" a voice hissed. It was…female…and familiar…

Wait, it couldn't be…

"Flame Princess?" I asked, shocked. My girlfriend murdered my brother? Doesn't make any complete sense, does it?

"Stay away from me Finn!" she snapped. For a second I could've sworn I saw her eyes turn orange.

"But why? Flame Princess, did YOU kill Jake?"

It was too much for my soul to bear.

"Stay away Finn! Or you might get hurt!"

I frowned. "I got hurt with you a lot of times princess! I sacrificed the pain because I wanted to be with you…"

"It's too late!"

I saw her transform into a vicious fiery creature, and she lunged at me.

She started to burn my skin.

"BURN!"

I couldn't fight her. As I lost consciousness, I heard her whisper to my ear:

"Don't tell me that I didn't warn you."

As Finn's eyelids fell, the last thing he saw was a man in blue robes trying to fight his unstable girlfriend.
