BEGINNING OF AN ADVENTURE

Chapter 1


It was a beautiful day in fiore everything was sunny and the day peaceful but none other than the village of grandel haul which was occupied by many happy villagers there was one family who stuck out the most and this was the orion family.

"Zack honey come down your foods gonna get cold and call your sisters so they can get there food as well". Said a woman with bright red ruby eyes, long white silver hair, and sky blue eyes, with an impressive bust who looked about 25 and she was wearing a traditional miko outfit with a tall get a with a white tabi, the sleeves of her haori feature a giant red-star shaped pentagram on her sleeves, surrounded by five smaller pentagrams in between the points, and this was none other than tera orion loving mother and wife and right now she was making breakfast for her family which was eggs with bacon and she was doing it with a smile on her face while she was doing it.

"I'll be down in a minute mom just let me finish cleaning my room and I'll call mana and nana in a second". Said a very cheerful voice and it came from a boy who was about 7 years old with shaggy black hair and ocean sky blue eyes with fair skin and pearly sharp white teeth and this boy was zack orion and right now he had just got finished cleaning his room like he did every day and as he finished doing that he went to his sisters room and knocked on the door lightly. When he noticed no one answered he opened the door lightly and said. "Mana, nana where are you".

He then went inside and started looking around and wondered where his sister were until he was tackled by two small blurs and when he finally lifted his head off the ground he looked up to see two little girls, one was a girl with creamy white skin like mrajane although they didn't know who that was with long frizzy black hair and darker blue eyes than zacks and pointed fangs on the right side of her teeth, while the other girl looked the same except she had short black hair with lighter blue eyes and they both had kind smiles and they both said." Big brother". These were my two little sisters and I love them with all my life just like any of my family.

I then soon smiled warmly at the two which caused them to blush and they hugged me even more which caused me to laugh lightly and I then rubbed there heads lightly and then soon spoke." Come on little sisters mom said we have to go down and eat or else we won't get to go to the park today and you know mom doesn't joke and remember what happened when we didn't get her the food like we were supposed to and we spent it all on that candy". Shivers went down through me and my sisters spines at the punishment we got and while our mom can be nice most of the time she also had a scary side to her and me and my sisters and dad did our best to keep that personality away. But anyway back to the main topic...

"Alright besides that come on mana, nana you guys need to clean up your room so we can go get breakfast and then have fun day at the park, wouldn't you guys like that". I already knew there answer as they were both little kids and they both nodded there heads eagerly with huge smiles on there faces and both shouted out." Yes, yes, yes, yes". They kept repeating that and I smiled warmly at both of them which brought back there blushes again.

"Well then you guys got to do what I told you to do and came meet me downstairs so we can all go to the park with mom and dad, alright". I said and they both nodded and stopped hugging me although I noticed they looked a little sad about it which confused me since we were brother and sister and we were going to be there for each other all the time. They then soon started cleaning up there room and I went downstairs where I was then soon greeted by my mom.

"Morning son how did you sleep". Said a man who looked kind of like zack with short spike hair, elongated teeth, hazel yellow eyes, with a well built body, and was wearing a long sleeve grey shirt, a black vest with green streaks on it, and black pocket pants and a chain hanging front the side with a sliver belt, and black shoes with silver on the bottom and this was mine and my sisters father Andrew orion and right now he was sitting on a chair at the table reading a book with a cup of coffee in his hand and when he asked me that question he didn't look away from his book and I guess he just really liked reading and I smiled at him.

"I slept great dad and mana and nana are already cleaning there room so we are already for our Park day". I said while smiling as me and my family had an annual Park day we want to every weekend and me and my dad invented it when we passed by there and thought that we should go and while me and my family were playing me and my father thought this would be a great thing for us all to hang out and have fun and release some energy.

I then went to go sit down and eat with my family and I sat across from my father and my mom put my scrammbled eggs and bacon in front of me and I thanked and I immediatly started digging in so I could get to the park faster with my sisters and mom and dad. then my two sisters mana and nana came down and mana said. " Hey mom, hey dad so are we going to go to the park or what cause we want to go play with big brother cuase he is the best brother in the world and no one is better than big brother cause he is the coolest". mana said with nana nodding her head very fast as she was strongly agreeing with her and I chuckled a bit because I knew how much they loved me so much and sometimes I think that they love me a little too much but then I know I'm just over thinking it because I know they couldn't love me more than just a brother, right.

"Aww how sweet you to love your brother so much and I'm glad you all get along so well and I hope you all have amazing relationships when you grow up". My mother said and I did a spitake at what she just said cause she just said that we all have an amazing relationship and mana and nana have big smiles on there faces and stars in there eyes and I said."w-w-what". I stuttered out wanting to know what she meant by that and she just looked at me and smiled and said." Why I just said that I want you to have a healthy relationship as a family is there something wrong with that". She asked and I sighed in relief as she said that but my little sisters looked disappointed and I wondered why but when my mom saw my sigh of relief her smile then soon turned mischievous and then soon said." My my zack were you thinking of something else maybe hmmm". She asked and I then soon looked up with wide eyes and said. "No no no no." Which caused my parents to laugh and my sisters to look disappointed and my mom said." Oh relax zack were only teasing you should know that, now mana and nanak stop standing there and come over here and eat your food". Mom said and they responded in unison with an." okay mom". They said which me and my parents thought was so cute and they came and sat down at the table and then we all began eating and talking like any family would and I was happy at how I had such a loving family and I knew we would always be like this forever...

Oh how wrong I was...

"Alright then children you better get going to the park so you can have more time to play at the park and we can have some time to talk about somethings". My father said.

Zack then soon asked. " you aren't coming with us". I asked wondering why they weren't coming.

My mother responded to my question." Yes we are coming sweety ut there are some things me and your father and I need to talk about, and I'm sure your smart enough to get to the park now go off with you". My mother said to us and we decided not to question them since it is probably pretty important if they need to talk about it alone so I then told mana and nana to come and they immediately cling ed onto me witch caused me to chuckle and we then soon walked to the park and when we left my parents stopped smiling and looked at each other seriously.

"They have to know sooner or later tera we can't keep hiding this from them forever". Andrew said looking at tea and she sighed.

"I know but I'm just so worried at what will happen to them when they find out the truth of the heritage cause you know there will be people who will come after them one they find out who we are". Tera said sadly and Andrew put a comforting arm around her and soothed her worries by saying.

"Shhh it's okay we will be there to train them and make sure they are strong enough so that nothing can hurt them alright". Andrew said in a soothing way and that released a bit of teras worries but not all of them and they just looked off to the park where there kids had went and hoped they would be alright once they found out the truth, but they knew they would be alright since they were always going to be there for them...

Oh how wrong they were...


At the park...

"Come on big brother push harder yayyyy". Both mana and nana and shouted with joy as there big brother was pushing them on the swing and zack and mana and nana were each enjoying it and zack was enjoying it because he loved seeing the happiness on his little sisters face and the sisters because they loved being around there brother.

"Alright mana, nana let's calm down for a bit don't want you to fall off and let's relax and play another game, wouldn't that be fun". Zack said trying to make sure him and his little sisters and him could have as much fun as they can.

"Okay". They both said in unison happily as they were always eager to play with him and always love him with all there heart, mind, body, and soul.

"Alright then now let's go see what else we ca-". Zack was then soon interuppted by rumbling coming from the ground and everyone in the town could feel the vibrations and mana and nana stored there swinging and had gone wide eyed at that and Zack as well.

Mana and mana then soon recovered and nana asked." What was th-". She was then soon interupted by the sound of something that shocked everyone to the core...

BOOOOMMMM...

There was a gigantic explosion, but that wasn't just it, there were explosions happening everywhere after the first one, but that wasn't what made zacks fill with horror as one of the explosions happened somewhere he didn't want to be and it was the biggest one...

His parents house...

"MOM, DAD". I screamed at the too of lungs and caused mana and nana's eyes to widen in horror as they saw what happened now and they screamed at the top of there lungs as well.

I then soon grabbed mana and nana's and told them." Come on we have to go check to make sure mom and dad are all right, let's hurry before anything bad happens to them alright". Zack said in a panicking vice but did his best to remain calm to make sure his sisters didn't start feeling as if mom and dad were dead and they both nodded there head and we all began running to our parents house as fast as we could. But while we're running I saw people getting attacked by people who weren't from our town and I actually saw some of them much to my shock shooting or blasting lightning, fire, and doing many other things that shouldn't be possible by ordinary people so I quickly assumed that they were mages, the one my parents told me about and how they could use magic, but then I realised that they were attacking innocent people and my parents told me about other types of mages that were callled... dark mages...

I then soon tried looking for other routes trying to avoid all there dark mages and took routes that lead to our parents house because of living here all my life I knew the town very well and knew some good routes but made sure to avoid the dark mages to ensure the safety of my sisters and we were doing pretty good so far and I thought that we were going to make it with no trouble at all.

That was all squashed away when we passed by a building that was on fire and while we were passing by it the building then soon collapsed and my eyes widened at that and I pushed my sisters out of the way before they got squashed, but I then soon realised that now they were trapped under the pieces of the building but luckily that weren't squashed under it much to zacks relief but then soon realized that the pieces of the building wouldn't hold up forever and I then soon began trying to pull on the pieces of cement and wood but they were just to heavy and hot for me to touch or pull but I couldn't give up, I had to save them both no matter what.

But mana and nanak then soon came and looked at zack through the pieces of cement and wood and they said." Go find mom and dad big brother". Zack then soon looked at them as if they had lost there minds and I said." No I can't leave you here you are my family and I never leave family behind". Zack said as if there was no room for argument but mana said." You can't stay here Zack if you do you will die here, you have to get mom and dad to help us if we want to make it out of here". Zack knew mana was right but he couldn't abandon them here and leave them a) alone but he knew the only way to help them was to get there parents here, and when he was still conflicted about it mana and nana saw this and they said.

" GO!". Both nana and mana shouted ou to me.

Zack then soon nodded my head and said." Alright". He then soon began running towards his parents house as fast as he could, but while he was running he didn't notice that there was a piece of cement falling down and it hit him in the back and it had injured him in the back quite badly.

Zack then soon got back up and now began limping his way back to his house which took a very long and painful while. While I was limping back to my house I noticed that everything seemed to be going more quieter and wondered what was going on, but I realized that wasn't the most important of my concerns and I then soon made it to my house and I felt relief that I was here and now I could get mom and dad to help mana and nana. But when I got there my eyes were filled with horror and made me fall to my knees, not because our house was destroyed, but what was on top of our house...

Zacks parents and a group of dark mage crackling over there dead bodies...

"Great job boys now we can go get our money from our client and be done with this." One of them said to the other guys.

"Yeah now we can be done with this stupid village and go live like kings with how much were being payed". Another one said although he was a bit skinnier than the others.

I know and all it took was this little gem to kill them how pathetic to think these were wizard saints and this is all the fight they had in them". Another one said and he was incredibly fat.

Don't be an idiot you fool, do you know what kind of beings these were if we didn't have this gem we would be dead in less then a second by these two". The skinny one said which caused the fat one to sneer but he paid no attention to it.

"Enough we got the job done and now we can go back to tartorus to collect ou reward and go get a rich life and go get some whores alright". The first one said and the others were nodding eagerly in agreement also wanting some of that life and action.

"Yeah your right but I what I really want is those two babes back in tartar us cause they really look like they know how to make a man go wild". The fat one said with a perverted giggle and the other giggled pervertedly in agreement.

"Yeah I mean besides the horns and bird wings, those two have hot amazing bodies and I would kill to get some of that". The skinnier one said with lust in his eyes thinking about himself with those two girls.

"But don't you already do that". The first one said and they all began laughing to themselves at that comment and then soon said." Alright let's get out of here before those damn Knights get here". He said as they then soon began walking away until another one of the thugs came panting behind them which caused them all to look suprised.

"What are you doing here I told you to round up the boys so we can get out of here". The first one said to the panting man but he then soon looked at him with fear in his eyes.

"Boss the rune Knights are here"! He said in a panicking tone which caused the other ones to widen there eyes with shock and fear as well.

"What how did they find us we made sure no one left to alert them!" The leader said with shock and panic at the same time and the other two were in that state as well.

"Yeah but that exploding idiot let off to many epos ions and some travellers probably saw it and alerted the councel". The one who used to be panting said as he regained his breath and looked his leader in the eye waiting for orders on what to do in this situation.

"Alright we alright practically killed everyone in this miserable village let's take the loot that we got from here and get the he'll out of here before those damn rune knights get here and ruin our big victory, let's go boys". The other thugs nodded in agreement and they followed there leader and took everything they could and left leaving only a destroyed town and a child to look at his dead parents with pain, fear, and horror in his eyes, he then soon began limping towards them.

He then soon finished limping towards his parents, he didn't care how much pain he was in he needed to check if his parents were alright but he had a feeling he already knew the answer and it was dreading him in the back of the head. When he finally got near them he said.

"M-mM-om, D-dDad". There was no repose from either of the two which was tearing him apart on the inside, so he tried again. "P-please wake up". There was still no response which were causing tears to slip out of his eyes as he already knew what happened to them. He started to sulk as what had happened to his parents. His sulking then soon stopped when he saw his father moving a bit which caused zack to become shocked and glad.

"DAD". Zack shouted with joy as he looked at his father and his father opened his eyes a little bit to look at his son and a small smile graced his face as he looked at his son and slowly lifted his hand to touch his sons face which brought happiness to the young boy, but his smile fell as his father's smile turned into a saddened one.

Andrew then said." Zack I'm so happy that your alive where are your sisters...". This caused Zack to slowly start crying againand zack told him what happened to his sister which brought devastation to his father's face.

"I'm sorry dad I tried to get them out of there but I wasn't strong enough... I'm so sorry". Zack said as there were so many painful emotions and memories flooding his body and mind.

Andrew then soon began stroking his cheek and said." Zack it's alright your not God you can't do everything...". This caused Zack to look at his father with teary eyes and Andrew then soon said something else." But Zack there is something I'm going to need you to do for me". This caused Zack to look at him wondering what he was going to say.

Andrew then said." Zack I need you to be strong now, strong enough so that nothing can ever hurt you, cause your going to face a lot of challenges in the future, and I'm sorry to tell you this but you are going to face these challenges on your own, but you will have friends along the way...". Zack was terrified at the news and new that he was going to be left alone.

"Please don't leave me, I don't want you to go... I want you to be here for me, I want mom here for for me, and I want mana and nana here for me... please don't go". Zack said as he was holding his father's hand and wanted to never let it go.

Andrew then soon smiled at his son and said." Zack we will always be there for you no matter what in here...". Andrew said pointing at his heart and more and more tears were spilling it out of his eyes as he couldn't handle it.

"Zack remember you be the man you want to be, not what others want you to be... goodbye my son, your mother and I, as well as others will be watching over yooouuu...".

"Dad,dad,...DAAAAADDDD...

Zack fell at the loss of everything, his friends, family, and town he collapsed as his body could not take it and his mind went into unconciousness and the last thing he saw were men dressed in robes of the same outfit.

Little did zack know that due to this event it would start something that he never expected coming...

The begging of his adventure...
