Ch 1: A New World

It was eternal night, the baleful light of the moon the only illumination to pierce the otherwise pitch black sky. The light of that pale moon illuminated against a seemingly endless expanse of bleached white sand. Every so often the skeletal fingers of petrified trees would poke out of the sand and a few lonely islands of stone would sprout from the otherwise endless expanse of sand. Alone in the light of the moon a creature stood sentinel atop one of the large rock formations.

The creature was wolf like in appearance with bright piercing red eyes and covered in a thick coat of matted dark grey fur. The creatures head was seemingly made of bone that mimicked the shape of a long wolfish snout. Stranger still, in the center of its chest was a medium sized hole, as if it's heart had been ripped out. As its gaze swept across the endless desert it's sharp eyes seemingly spotted something. As it squinted its eyes it saw two humanoid figures stumbling across the sand a great distance away. With a low hungry growl the creature began to slowly descend from its high perch down to the ground below.

As its clawed feet touched the ground it began to bound across the sand at break neck speed towards the two figures with a ravenous look in its eyes. As the creature closed in on the figures it slowed down and brought itself low to the ground and creeped quietly along until it was behind a small rock sticking out of the sand near the strange figures and studied their features.

The one closest to it appeared male, tall, moderately built with fair skin, neck length curly dark brown hair, and hazel brown eyes covered by black half rimmed glasses. He was dressed in a black short sleeved shirt and slightly baggy jeans and a small crucifix hanging from his neck.

The second figure was a head shorter than the previous one, with a slightly lighter skin color than the first but with close cut light brown hair and deep brown eyes. This one was also male but, leaner than the other one with slightly pronounced check bones and a childlike demeanor. The shorter one was dressed in a green short sleeved shirt and shorts with a cyan colored hoodie over its shirt. Both figures also had what appeared to be a broken chain attached to their chest.

As the creature watched, the figures began to consult with one another. "Where the heck are we man? I've never seen this place before?" Said the taller figure in a slight panic. The figures voice was masculine and moderately toned and gave an air of intelligence.

"I don't know where we are man, but I don't like this place one bit!" Responded the shorter figure looking around their surroundings worriedly. This figures voice was slightly higher pitched than the other one though still masculine. "How the heck did we get to a desert? The last thing I remember is walking home from school and suddenly some creepy looking creature of some kind came out of nowhere and attacked us!" Exclaimed the shorter figure.

"What the Hell! Why is there a chain coming out of my chest!" shouted the taller figure suddenly. With another strangled cry the shorter one noticed the chain coming out of his own chest. The shorter figure then slowly began to move his hands towards the chain coming out of his chest. With a sudden jerk the taller one grabbed the shorter one's hands and kept them from touching the chain. "We don't know what those are but I'm pretty sure they aren't to be messed with" he said to his companion with a serious look his eyes.

Taking his friends advice, the shorter one moved his hand away from the chain. "Fine Kenjiro, I won't mess with the chain. Though we still don't know where we are." The shorter one said as it addressed its friend. The taller figure now revealed to be named Kenjiro looked off into the distance and the empty expanse of white sand and dark sky in all directions. As he scans the area his eyes fell upon the lone rock behind which the wolf like creature was hiding.

The creature tensed up as it saw Kenjiro looking at its hiding spot. Believing it's hiding spot had been compromised it quickly leaped from the shadows behind the rock and into plane-sight with a low intimidating growl. Startled by the creature's sudden appearance Kenjiro exclaimed "Holy mother of God! What the hell is that thing Kyou!".

As the creature, slowly and methodically prowled its way towards them the two friends began to back away as quickly as it advanced. The two figures stared at the wolf like creature with pure terror in their eyes.

Suddenly the wolf like creature pounced with unimaginable speed towards the pair. In a whirl of hair and claws the creature collided into the shorter figure revealed to be named Kyou. Pining the young man down to the ground with its clawed front feet. The hairy beast opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouth full of razor sharp fangs and made ready to sink them into its latest meal.

The creature never got the chance. Just when its teeth were about to sink into Kyou's flesh an enraged Kenjiro slammed his shoulder into the creature's side knocking the monster off balance, causing it to stumble away with a high-pitched yelp of surprise. Kyou wasted no time in scrambling to his feet the moment the creatures clawed feet left his body. With his hoodie in taters and with many cuts and bruises from the initial confrontation Kyou stood next to his friend breathing heavily.

"You ok?" Kenjiro asked his friend worriedly looking at the tattered remnants of his hoodie and a small trickle of blood from his back.

"Yes, I'm fine." Said Kyou as he wipes some blood from his cheek and flicked it to the sand. "I just really want to beat that hairy mutt senseless!" Panted Kyou angrily. The creature still reeling from Kenjiro's surprise attack was beginning to regain its bearings and was obviously quite angry.

As the beast turned towards the pair once more a voice as rough as sandpaper broke the windblown silence "You two must be the most annoying prey I've ever hunted". The faces of the two friends contorted in horror as they realized the voice had come from the wolf like beast now stalking around them.

"What are you? What is this place? Why are we here?" Shouted Kenjiro.

The beast cackled evilly at the apparent distress in the young man's voice. "Since you've survived this long against me and put up a fight compared to all the other weakling humans I've killed, I'll answer your questions, but only because telling you will make your horrified reaction when I eat you all the sweeter." The beast said evilly liking its lips hungrily.

"I am what is called a Hollow. An evil spirit of a human. We Hollows must continue to eat other souls to become stronger and to continue our evolution. The place you are currently in is called Hueco Mundo, where we Hollows live, hunt, and die. As for your last question, your only reason for being here as far as I'm concerned is to be my lunch!". As it finished speaking the monstrous beast let out a howl of blood lust as it barreled towards the fearful friends.
