Fastwrite - I want...

'I want power. I want the ability to protect those I care about...' That was the thought that went through his mind as he saw his love running towards him, a creature of pure shadow chasing behind. The sky overhead was an eerie amethyst color, as if someone had painted over the usual crystal blue color he loved to stare up at so much. He watched helplessly as the shadow beast drew ever closer, occasionally the woman he loved looked behind her, all she could do was run, if she stopped to try to cast a spell to defend herself then the beast would be on her, it would be over. While she was distracted checking behind her, she failed to see an uneven bit of ground in front of her, a tile that caught her foot as she tripped, falling forward, landing on her hands and knees, the unforgiving, hard surface grazing the skin that made contact painfully. The creature gave a snarl of triumph as it leaped. At that time, he lost all control, a blood red circle springing forth around him, as the chaotic energies within sprung forth. With all his desperation, he drew the power from hid circle into his hands and flung it at the beast with all his desperation, all his might.
