Aidan was cooking dinner when his ex, Brianna called. She was terrified, hysterical, blubbering about 'the rake'. "Please help. I think it's going to kill me."
"I'll be there. Just stay calm." A quick Google search told him far more than he needed. Calling the Anchorage regional FBI headquarters, he waited for the operator to answer, said, "The rake is in Wasilla," and hung up.
Turning off the stove, he ripped the plastic off his new right arm tattoo and ran out to the driveway. Slamming his fist to the ground, he watched streams of energy course up the twining celtic designs. "Good".
Since it was moose season, his bow and rifle were already in the trunk of the dark red luxury sedan he climbed into. The highway was literally one block away, and he sped away toward Wasilla.

A few moments later a man strolled into Pierce's office "You wanted to know if anything weird popped up well i just snached this before it was logged as an x file" the man slid a folder accross the desk to Pierce who looked it over within moments he was up grabbing his service pistol and racing to his car he hopped in to the blue camaro and sped off heading for wasilla.

Traffic thinned as he pulled away from Anchorage. It was seven in the evening, and most commuters were already home. As soon as he had passed the North Peter's Creek exit, he floored it, bringing his Lincoln to 120mph. If the FBI was sending a squad, they would notice that.
The remaining distance to Wasilla was covered in less than 20 minutes. Another three minutes driving through town at 50mph, and he slammed down the e-brake to drift onto a side road. If the speeding didn't get anyone's attention, the rice rocket maneuver certainly would. To be honest, the young man wasn't checking his mirrors, and his car looked government issue anyway. His driving certainly did.

pierce caught up and noticed the speeding car he followed it down the dirt path suddenly a voice in his mind registered (beware the rake for it feeds from flesh but fears fire and silver) before it was gone he looked in the mirror and noticed movement in his eyes the black was leaving. looking back to the road he followed the lincoln his siren switched off.
meanwhile the FBI was dispatching a swat team

The road was paved, but the road he turned into from there was not. Another turn, and he skidded to a stop in front of a cabin.
A girl, tall, slightly plump, but very curvy ran out. It looked like she hadn't slept in a while.
Aidan climbed out of his car, popping the trunk. "Stay on the porch! Close the door!" As she complied, he ran to the back, grabbed his rifle and tossed it to her, then pulled out his bow. "Where's Donna?"
"It got her. I think."

His reader ability was blinded by the sheer volume of energy. "Aidan Lane. I'm the caller. Don't bother. Any scan would have to cut through an entire Astral realm." His spiritual signature was familiar. The Astral vampire who ran the Spirit Library. Jobs of that scale were usually handled by ancient beings. Mortal humans simply don't have the power.

Pierce was a bit surprised but quickly recovered "something's out there you may want to stay inside" he picked up a radio set to the local police frequency then he spoke into it "this is FBI agent Pierce badge 5549 send SRT" however only static came back.

"Creepy." He led the way inside. As evening fell, he settled at the foot of Brianna's bed, meditating. Shortly, his image began to fuzz as he used druidic magic to blend himself into the natural materials of the floor and footboard. Soon, Aidan was invisible.
A few minutes later, Brianna went to bed.
The bedroom window silently unlocked and slid open, and the rake climbed through. It started to climb onto the bed, but froze as it saw movement through the bedroom door. Lightning reflexes drove it toward the door, such that it's legs swung forward when it was suddenly grabbed by the throat. "Give Hella my regards. Aiden!" The last word carried magic, as a glow lit up the young man's otherwise invisible tattoos. It raced down his arm to explode around the Rake's neck, igniting it instantly. Aidan shimmered back into the visible spectrum, rising to his feet as he threw the flaming creature out the window. Spine chilling screams split the night as it writhed in the wet loam. Brianna sat up, startled awake by the sounds, and shrank back against the wall.

Swat suddenly swarmed in with Pierce.
The captain spoke "target down"
Pierce looked at Aiden "you know I could use a partner in hunting this kind of thing a simple call and you could be that partner" he pulled out a card on it was pierces contact info.

He took the card, walking around the bed. Brianna tried to shove him away, but he bound her pajama sleeves to her headboard. "Sorry." He put his hands over her temples. "Forget." A moment later, he turned and rushed out.
They found him crouching at the base of a tree, right hand locked around a root, the druidic tattoos on his right arm pulsing with energy.

The swat cleaned up and left Pierce was to stand by and make sure the rake didn't come back.
Off in the distance a figure stood he had no face and wore a black suit.

Without looking up or around, Aidan suddenly threw an arm out, pointing at the figure. "Time to pay the piper," He sang just loudly enough for Pierce to hear.

The figure vanished suddenly and a scream emitted from the forest.
Pierce turned to see the figure vanish when the scream emitted he ran into the forest his side arm drawn.

"Shit. Should've just asked for his gun." But as he spoke, he was focusing. A moment later, he bounded up, springing off the rough trunks of nearby spruce trees until he could lu ge through the branches. His skin hardened to take the needles as he overtook Pierce. "He's already gone. If you stop, I can track him. He uses the Astral plane to teleport, and I own half." Dropping to the ground, he sank his tattooed right hand into a patch of soft earth.
