He was the winged death, sent to kill the vampire king.

This was his destiny. No matter the generous, kind leader who gave him a home, the years they'd been best friends, the villains they'd fought side by side.

Every battle, every friendly sparring match, had taught him. His target's tactics. His weaknesses.

This night would be the final round.

He discarded the shape of the pudgy cat, growing lean and sleek, his tan fur lightening to liquid-silver white. Extending his wings and his deadly claws, he launched.

They clashed mid-air, he and his mortal foe, the Iron Mouse, too, taking his true form.

This was his destiny, no matter how the soul-bond flared when the rat-scourge sank its fangs into his throat, the opening he'd left to let him reach its heart.

He was the winged death, born to kill the vampire king.

It was done.
