Drabble Prompt: Equal

[garnigal]

She paced through the night, each step placed to make no noise. She was Slayer; Hunter; Warrior. None was her equal and none could ever be.

She lay in wait through the night, unmoving as her prey fell into her trap. She was Slayer; Protector; Defender. None was her equal and none could ever be.

She played the victim through the night, drawing predators to her. She was Slayer; Guardian; Champion. None was her equal and none could ever be.

They used all their advantages to protect the weak from evil. Eventually, they would be replaced, unequal to the task.

I loved the repetition in this. I loved the last line.

Thanks Ares.

I liked your use of the prompt, and turning it over at the end.

Thank you. I started with the arrogance of the slayers (no one could be their equal), but quickly realized that was less than half the story.

I'm back to my angsty drabbles!
