Unexpected resistance

Suddenly, you hear the roar of a heavy engine and the screeching sound of tires on asphalt behind you. You turn your head just in time to see a large delivery van with jury-rigged plates of metal armor soldered to the sides bearing down on you. Startled, you flare your leathery wings out and prepare to leap to the skies, but before you can launch yourself into the air the heavy van smashes into you, sending you crashing through the gas station's plate glass front entrance and slamming into the shelves before collapsing into a crumpled heap.

Melissa drops the phone and lets out a horrified scream. Through the haze of your pain, you see a young man and woman jump out of the van and hurry to Melissa's aid. Young and fit, the two of them look like they belong on the cover of a supernatural Urban Fantasy novel. The woman is trim and athletic with teased dark blonde hair, wearing tight leather pants and a black leather bodice that show off her toned physique and impressive curves, as well as wearing what looks to be a scabbard for a shortsword and carrying a pistol-sized crossbow. The male is similarly dressed, tight leather pants and a black leather jacket, left open to show off an impressive muscular chest. With handsome smoldering features, light bronzed skin, and black shoulder length slightly spiky hair, he could almost be mistaken for an incubus already if it weren't for the large silver cross worn around his neck and the shotgun clutched in his hands. You'd laugh at their almost stereotypical appearance if you weren't in such pain.

"It's alright! We're here to help!" The young woman assures Melissa as she grabs her and starts to hurry her into the van.

Your blood boils at the thought of these two Buffy wannabes stealing away your prey. Focusing on your rage, you manage to overcome your pain and injuries, leaping up from the crumpled shelves with an earth-shaking roar.

Melissa screams even louder, while the young man turns and levels his shotgun at you. You manage to dodge to the side as he opens fire. With supernatural strength, you lift a display shelf of peanuts and snacks with one arm and hurl it at him. He manages to duck just in time as the metal shelf flies over him and smashes through a window.

"Go!" the young man cries out to his female companion as he cocks his shotgun. "Take her and get to the safe house! I'll deal with this demon prick and catch up with you later!"

The woman looks as though she's about to object, but thinks better of it as she sees your looming figure rapidly drawing closer. A couple more blasts from the male's shotgun **** you backwards, and the woman quickly ushers Melissa into the van and peels out, smoke rising from the tires as she makes for the highway at full speed.

You growl in anger as Melissa's tasty cunt is snatched from your grasp, turning your attention to the interfering young demon hunter wannabe as he gives you a cocky grin and prepares to level another blast from his shotgun at you.
