CHAPTER TWO

  Ryan was enjoying his down time, the battle against the seven princes took a toll on him. The loss of Maria and her return was one of the lowest and highest times of his life. Over the last three weeks he had taken Maria sailing and they traveled for fun and had really enjoyed each other’s company. But the time was coming that he had to return to work. The idea of returning to the battle against the fallen was something he was actually looking forward to. Ryan knew that the battles would be getting harder as the fallen that he was fighting would be stronger then the last one.

  Ryan walked out to his shop and looked at the figurines he had cast during his down time. He was surprised that as each of the last seven cast’s came out as a female. Fighting a female would be his worst fear as he was raised to never hit a woman, but a fallen really didn’t fall into the category of a woman.

  Ryan picked up the first of the female figurines and het was hit with the name of Lilith, the first bit of the information he received in his mind was she was the wife of Satan and she was referred to as the mother of demons. The information on her say’s she is a fallen of the night searching out infants to kill them, she seduces men so she can use them into propagating demon sons. Her home base of operation is what is known today as south eastern Iraq. Ryan went back into the house and found Maria,

  “Maria, I need you to find out as much as you can on a fallen female named Lilith. I jotted down some notes on what I received on her. Please find out what you can.”

  “I know a little about her, but I will find out everything I can.”

  “Thanks babe.”

  Several hours later Maria came to Ryan and told him she had what she could find. “Hon, this is a strange female fallen listen to this, Lilith possesses the powers of the Mesopotamian gods plus the occult powers derived from her degeneration into a demon, specifically a succubus. She has superhuman strength, stamina and durability. She has vast knowledge of magical lore and the ability to tap into and manipulate the dark forces of the universe, she is said to be the mother of all vampires.”

  “Vampires? Do they really exist?”

  “Vampires do exist but not as portrayed in the movies, they are not bats or anything like that, they kill their victims and drain their blood and drink it. The don’t have fangs to suck the blood off of people. They are just humans who drink blood.”

  “Thank god for that I wasn’t ready to start fighting some mythical creatures.”

  That evening the same delivery driver arrived at Ryan’s house and delivered a package for him. Ryan opened it and inside were plane tickets to Kuwait City, along with reservations for a car rental and hotel reservations in An Nasiriyah It also contained all the information on where to locate Lilith, along with information on Regina, Amy, Marchosias, Enepsigos, Naamah and Vepar all said to be at Lilith’s beck and call.

  Their flight was scheduled to leave at six the next morning. Ryan went back to his shop and checked all his weapons and ammo and sealed the boxes and called the number for the shipping company. In less than an hour the delivery driver showed up to pick up Ryan’s boxes and ship them to his hotel.

  The next morning Maria and Ryan were on a plane headed for Kuwait City.
