The rock walls flashed by in blurs of brown and grey. Gasping breaths echoed down the tunnels with the patter of bare feet against stone. Little noises behind the monster kept her running. She stumbles and falls, her palms tearing open to let her crimson blood splatter next to bloody footprints. She pulls herself up and continues running.
She hits a dead end and turns, knowing this was the end of the line.
She just didn't undestand. What had she done wrong? Why were these people chasing her? She hadn't done anything wrong. . .
Hearing a single set of footsteps feet away, she whimpers. Not an animalistic sound. A human sound. A word.
"Please. . ."

Isla was running after the girl her lungs burning as they struggled to suck air through her throat, she could barley keep the pain in her chest was unbearable but she never stopped running, she was going catch this girl who ever she was but she was alone why had she gone alone? once the foot steps subsided she stopped in her tracks "hello? "
The monster girl flinches.
"Please. . . don't kill me. . ." she whimpers.

Isla slowly approached the girl "I'm not going to hurt you…. "
The monster shrinks back, shaking.
"I don't believe you. You have weapons. You kill my friends."

Isla threw up her hands and slowly moving her arm down towards her waist and moved her jacket revealing a dagger she took it out of the sheath and dropped it on the ground "I didn't kill anyone and I'm not going to kill you. "
The woman realizes that while she may have nightvision, the human doesn't.
"You don't know what I am, do you?"
ac_unit
Isla stood in silence for a minute "no… I don't"
The woman stays tense, but slowly stands up.
"You've never been this far down. . . I am a monster. One of the ones that your kind hunts and kills for sport."

(How old were they because isla is a little young)
"What do you mean? " she shook there confused in the darkness she couldn't see anything and she couldn't really tell where the voice was coming from because of the echo
(Canonnically, 23. However. I can make her younger, if need be.)
"I'm not human." the monster murmurs, stepping close enough that the human girl could see fluorescent, narrow and slanted yellow-orange eyes, a slightly glowing red gem on her forehead and pale teal skin.

(She's 19)
Isla took a step back sucking in a breath "w-what are you? "
(Okay, so Reya is 20.)
The monster looks stricken, but she understood. Why should the human girl trust her or want to talk to her?
"It doesn't matter what I am, does it? After all, a monster is a thing to be killed. Not something you talk to or make friends with." she says bitterly.

Isla stood her ground but spoke as if she was frightened " I'd like to know what you are.. "
The monster sighs.
"Lupiere." she murmurs. "I am a Lupiere. My name is Reyna."
ac_unit
"What are you being hunted? "
"Because I'm a monster in the Dungeons. We are the hunted." Reyna says.
ac_unit
"But you didn't do anything bad though…. Right? "
"Unless self-defense is now illegal, no." Reyna sighs.
ac_unit
"You've killed people? '
"They tried to kill me first, and they've mercilessly slaughtered my people. What else was I to do?"
Reyna's tone is sad and bitter.
ac_unit
"Death is not the solution for either side " isla's voice was shaking but firm as she spoke to the woman before her
"Then what do you suggest? That humans and monsters hold hands and pick flowers and skip merrily through the fields? Don't be ridiculous, human. Such a thing will never be possible." Reyna snarks, sounding jaded and cynical, almost mocking the girl in front of her.
ac_unit
"I want my family to still be alive! " she snapped tears stinging her eyes and she stared at the creature in front of her
"So do I. But they're dead, because of you selfish humans. Humans started this. Your parents got what they deserved." Reyna snaps back.
