How to Make A Pact With A Demon.
In 1692, a group of four women practiced dark magic in the safety of their confined homes as a group. They believed that in order to harness such magic, they had to pray to a set of "gods". Little did they know that the more they prayed, the easier it became for these said "gods" to walk in human form. As the women prayed, their belief allowed the "gods" to materialize a body and walk the earth parading as a human. In return for the women believing in them enough to materialze, each of the four "gods" placed a pact with one of the women. This granted each woman a unique ability, along with hightened sences and inhanced bodies, which age slower than the normal human (If she were 60, her body would look and perform as if she were in her thirties. Their bodies would grow normally till puberty, and then their bodies would slow their growing process durastically).
These women soon found out that these so-called Gods were demons.
To keep the pact and family name pure, and to keep a pact going with future generations, the demons caused the women to become pregnant with female babies. As these generations continued, each women in the family line gave birth to a female who would be used as an assassin in pact with the family demon. There was never a male in the line.
These female assassins killed the people the demons instructed for a couple reasons. The first reason being that they had been trained since they were children to believe that if they didn't kill the people the demons said to, that those said people would inturn summon a darker set of demons who would empower and enslave all of the beings of earth. The second reason being that the demons would eat the soul of the person the assassin had just killed and would live another few days, as every day the demon grows weaker without a soul to eat. Then the demons would live still to protect the assassins.
When the mothers give birth to their babies, they die. The pact is then transfered between mother to baby. The baby has no choice other than to live with the bloodline she has received, and to live with the power the demon gives them. They are trained from small children to be super assassines, trained in their specific power fed by each specific demon. While the demons have no assassin to kill for them, they feed from a stock pile of "missing humans" who they have horded during the whole time their assassin has been living.
The four assassins are all twenty-one, and well trained in their pact. Three of the assassins are female, and one is Male. The male, by a literal term, is a default in nature. He will be persuaded by his demon to grow to love one of the female assassins to keep the blood and pact line pure. They have grown and trained together as friends, and they "hunt" as a pack. Each of their powers balance out the others power perfectly. Pheromone attracts, Biological Manipulation and Acid Generation are both offensive powers, which would be used to trap and kill their target. The last, Intangebility, can be used as both a defensive and offensive power. As said above, they hunt as a pack, would never turn on the others.
It's present day Hollywood, California. The four assassins all share a mansion owned by the demons, who live in the highest level of the mansion. The demons are in human form during the day, and when dusk settles they have the ability to transport from the human world to their home planar, and can only transport back at the earliest point of sunrise. The assassins are cued for their kills by low employee's wishing that their bosses would die, women who accuse their husbands of cheating, those sick humans who perform horrible acts of crime and other such idea's, which the demons plant the idea to kill the said human in the assassins heads (for the reasons listed in paragraph four).
So, today, they are out to kill a cheating husband, who just so happens to be a big business man. This should be fun.
"We need them just as bad as they need us, Kelgri." He said. "We are tied to them by pact. They need us for their power, we need them for their weapons, for their crafty killing. You do not like it, but we are just as dependant. We could not do a better job ourselves."
