Prologue
Our tale is not like any tale you may have heard before, this tale begins with one simple act, the abandonment of a small child.
Her mother had no idea that she had fallen for an Incubus, he flattered her, he lay in her bed he came to her in her dreams.
She was a young woman of 23 when she first laid eyes on the magnificent young man, he told her his name was Pietor and that he had come from Russia for a holiday, he had long blond hair, and dazzling icy blue eyes, he was a man mountain standing at 6ft7 he took Marissa on all kinds of activities like water-skiing, scuba diving and various other things.
She fell madly in love with him and each night she took him into her bed, as he seemed to almost feed on her sexual energy, she lusted for him, they had wild nights of passion. She thought that he would never leave her, but one day she woke up and all that was left from him was a note it had said that it should never have gone as far as it did, and that he was sorry, but he was a creature that couldn’t fall in love with just one person and so he had to leave.
Marissa sobbed for days, her friends nor her family could console her for the pain that she felt went deep into her core, she then found out that she was pregnant, she knew that she couldn’t possibly keep the child for it would remind her of Pietor far too much.
After she had given birth to her daugther, she knew that maybe she could keep her for a while, she called her Isabella, and for a while they were both happy, until one day when Isabella was twelve months old Marissa looked at her eyes, and they had changed from their normal colour of a dark green to a deep purple with flecks of gold and silver.
She became nervous and knew that her daugther was different, she wrapped up her daugther in a blanket before leaving her house in the dead of night and leaving her down an alleyway knowing that if she didn’t die first then maybe she would be found by someone who could take better care of her.
She kissed the top of her daughter’s head taking off a golden locket and placing it into the small bundle as she turned and walked away leaving her daugther to her fate.
Meanwhile, in a bar a vampire known as Mr Mime, was being involved in a fight with a group of Fae, for this was no ordinary bar it was where members of the Otherworld gathered, werewolves, zombies, vampires, and members of the Fae gathered and often there were no major disagreements until this night when a Fae had said something crude to a female vampire which Mr Mime took exception too, his eyes glowed a dangerous red as he smacked the Fae in the chest sending him flying over a table.
Another member of the Fae had drawn a sword slashing at Mime as it left a scar down the left side of his face, Mime was kicked in the chest as another Fae bit off part of his ear making him howl an unnatural sound, Mime spun around and broke the neck of the Fae who had bitten off his ear.
The owner of the bar….a massive werewolf by the name of Grimmau pulled out a shotgun aiming it at the warring parties as he said in his gruff voice “Don’t fuck with me Mime, you know what I’ve told you before” Mime glared at Grimmau replying “Hey buddy I didn’t start this fight, the Fair folk did by harassing my companion here” Grimmau snorted and waved the shotgun “I don’t give a damn who started it, get outta here before I start shooting someone” Mime growled and nodded glaring at the Fae as he slunk out of the bar sinking his hands into his pockets as he touched his ear pulling out a handkerchief to staunch the flow of blood.
His ears perked up, as he moved down an alleyway, he saw a bundle laying abandoned on the floor, he knelt down beside it and saw it was a young child, a baby of no more then twelve months old, he also saw her eyes and knew that she wasn’t quite human, she gurgled as she looked up at the old vampire and he let a small ghost of a smile cross his lips as he scooped the child up and carried her back to his apartment.
He noticed her eyes and knew that whoever had abandoned her had obviously fallen for the charms of an Incubus, he sighed softly saying to the child “Well, obviously we shall have to find a name for you won’t we, how about….Jessica?” the baby gurgled as Mime shook his head “No your right I don’t think that will suit you at all….how about hmm Jynx” the girl squealed in pleasure as Mime said softly “Well Jynx it is then” he then picked up the girl and carried her into a spare bedroom he always kept for guests, laying her down on the bed saying softly to her “Well little Jynx, you should get some sleep” he then kissed her forehead as he left the room.
After a few years, Jynx and Mime settled into a father daugther type relationship, Mime taught Jynx much in the way of how to read and write, she was pretty much home schooled as well as being taught by Mime’s friends. Mime also began to tell her what he thought that she was, she listened intently as she nodded her head gathering every bit of information that she could garner from him.
She knew she was different, she never knew how different she was until Mime told her that she was half human and half Succubus, she sat on her laptop most evening’s gathering every morsel of information that’s she could find and found out that Lilith who was Adam’s first wife was a Succubus.
Mime came to her one evening and asked her if she would work for him and become an Assassin, Jynx laughed softly and nodded her head knowing that she would try and repay Mime’s kindness in any way that she could.
From then on, as well as school lessons Mime also taught her how to fight and she got lessons on how to fire weapons from Grimmau, who funnily enough she struck up a very strong relationship with much to Mime’s displeasure, she never got on much with the Fae as she found them all far to vain and found they were never found far from all their various cliques.
Grimmau commented on how proficient she was with a sniper rifle, as well as with daggers, she blushed from the comment as she thanked him saying “Well I’ve had awesome teachers” she then left the Bar walking back to the apartment that she shared with Mime as she thought over her time with him, and how she wished her mother had stayed or that she had known her father.
She entered the apartment and sat down on the couch flicking on the television as some boring documentary came on she yawned softly and slipped into a deep sleep, Mime came in and saw her asleep smiling softly as he wrapped a blanket over her letting her sleep as he grabbed a drink of water from the tap and sank down into his red leather chair and watched the documentary that was on.
