Well hello everyone to the first chapter of Hunter's Redemption, If you haven't read the previous story Remnant of Death then you'll be lost. Now before we begin

Now without further ado, let's begin
Death raised his gun up and fired
Death fired with great accuracy as Leo and his groups weapons were shot out of their hands "What are you doing!" Leo shouted at Death while holding onto his stinging hand
"I decided to do what I can to help the people and that means to put you lot away. I may not care about politics not even remotely but I know for a fact that acts like this can't go on so I'll do my part and end the White Fang, by myself if I have to" Death said as he walked up and pointed Redemption against Leo's temple
"They are just going to use you!" Leo shouted at Death who stared calmly at him
"No" Death said dully as he spun Redemption around and knocked Leo out with a well place hit to his head "No they're not, because if they did" Death said turning to Raphael who was waiting patiently for him to finish "Then we would have a problem" Death said as Raphael nodded as he signaled his team to apprehend the other White Fang members
"You did a good thing today Death" Raphael said as Death rolled his eyes knowing this was supposed to be some bullshit emotional moment of rights and wrongs
"The only thing I did today is beat up a supremacist, not sure if that is considered good in your vocabulary because if it is get a new vocabulary" Death said sarcastically as Raphael slung his shoulder over Death "Take it off or lose it" Death said as Raphael quickly pulled his arm off Death
"But still you did good, for a moment there I thought you were going to kill them" Raphael said as he watched his team and some of police drag them away
"Thought about it but didn't" Death said as Raphael looked at him
"Why didn't you?" Raphael asked as Death shrugged
"I just felt that with killing it just proves a point to these guys that they really don't have rights. I rather have them die with rights than kill them like animals like most of you bastards would" Death said glaring at the men who wanted to take the shot and kill them, they all flinched taking a few steps back away from Death when he glared harsher. He didn't care what others would think, he would never kill someone just because they are below him as he had learned long ago that all sentient life should be treated equally not by their appearances, but how they lived
"Well it's nice you have values like those" Raphael said nodding to Death's decision while ignoring his cold comment about killing them
"What will happen to them now" Death asked after a moment of silence as Raphael stood there silently in contemplation
"Well those guys will be going to jail and get a fair trial which will end with them serving time in prison" Raphael explained as Death nodded "And now I guess we should go to Vale's government department of Hunters to give you a licence as a Hunter as you already have the skills of one. We wouldn't want you to start school all over now would we" Raphael said jokingly as he snickered a bit while Death stared at him blankly
". . . . .If you did I would instantly quit and disappear without leaving a trace except the burning ruins of some random White Fang strongholds" Death said blandly while being completely serious that if they decide to send them to some teaching facility he will leave and hunt down the White Fang without their help
". . . . .O~Kay then" Raphael slowly said as he shook his head as he did so causing Death to narrow his eyes at the man dryly "Let's just get going then" Raphael said as Death nodded "Wait, no we have to wait until tomorrow as the government building is probably closed at the moment and the officials are probably out" Raphael said as Death let out a tired sigh
"So we just have to wait until morning" Death said dryly as Raphael nodded
"Come on" Raphael said as his team returned as they began following him while warily glancing at Death who didn't move from his spot "We're going to stay at the hotel we book and then go during the morning" Raphael stated as he stopped to stare at Death "You could come with us if you like" Raphael said with a smile as Death rolled his eyes at his friendly nature
"Or you just tell me where the government building is and I'll meet you there tomorrow" Death said blandly as Raphael stopped smiling and looked at Death seriously
"Do you have a place to stay" Raphael asked with a raised brow
"You could say that" Death said cryptically, truthfully Death wanted to be as far away from people at the moment so he could meditate about today and see if he try and locate a Serpent Hole
"Okay" Raphael said slowly before pointing into the direction of a large tower "That's where we will be going tomorrow, wait for us by the entrance" Raphael said as Death nodded before walking in the direction of the tower while ignoring their gaze along with the hateful gazes of the civilians that were still there at the scene
Death continued walking down the streets of Vale until he came to the V.C.G (Vale Central Government) building. Death walked up the many steps up to the entrance and walked over to the side where a lone tree was planted. Death sat down under the tree and started meditating
'What am I even doing, these events are of no concern to me but the way they treated the faunus should not be condone when life should be treated equal' Death thought as he began looking for a Serpent Hole 'Nothing, seems I'm truly am stuck here' Death thought dryly as he shook his head before staring up at the night sky
'The world may have the same populace as the other world but it's always the same though, no matter what world I am there is always some conflict among the species about who is superior. Especially with the humans. Makes me sick to think that's the creators children could be so vile and twisted' Death thought angrily as he still remembered the day he personally helped the child of the creator during the time he was mistreated by his own followers and yet he forgave them all. He still remembered the talk he had with the man before he passed his soul on
(Sorry, it's going to turn a bit religious for this part so if you don't really care about this then you can just skip this part and just think Death had an emotional experience about life and learned to value it greatly)
Death walked up towards the three crosses hung up. Three people were crucified as the two on both sides looked up to see him and saw the giant scythe he carried
"Seems our time has finally came" The one crucified on the right, Dismas said with a tired yet pained smile
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die just yet" The one on the left, Gestas said crying as painfully
"Calm yourself child for Death walks to take us to the new world" The middle crucified man, the man known as the child of god Jesus Christ said with a kind smile
"It seems you know who I am" Death said softly as he looked on to the man to see his bloody face of the crown of thorns placed on his head. He knew of the cruelty of what man could do but to hurt their own savior in such a way struck him in such a way that he couldn't describe it
"Of course I know, you are Death one of the last Nephilim who governs the worlds balance. It's an honor to make your acquaintance" Christ said with as much of a bow he could do from his position as Death couldn't do anything but stare in shock at how such a person could just openly bow to him like this "I can see it on your face you didn't expect such honor from me, but know I will treat everyone with equality as life is all but just and should be preserved for all to witness" Christ said with a smile on his face
"That may be so but the actions I have done shown but nothing but destruction for a race that shouldn't have fallen" Death admitted, he didn't know why he said it but he felt so open about it as the guilt poured out openly
"That may be so but redemption only truly begins when you forgive yourself of all the things you done and accept yourself for who you truly are" Christ said as Death already passed the two souls that were with Christ as he stayed there thinking what he just said
"But with the way people are, there are no way there could be redemption" Death asked as Christ just smiled at him warmly
"But that is what makes humans and yourself so special, you will find the path of redemption when it shows itself and when that time comes you'll know you've done the good thing" Christ said as his head was slowly going down "Just remember, life is sacred and shouldn't be tarnished, everything has a meaning. It just needs to. be. found" Christ said slowly as the last ounce of his life ended as Death stared solemnly at the child god
"May your soul find peace" Death said as he guided his soul on and knew the man was right to try and forgive those who deserve it even if they didn't deserve it
Death opened his eyes after thinking heavily on those facts and playing that memory back over and over again before noticing something in front of him. Death snapped out of his meditation and noticed it was Raphael waving his hand in front of his face
"Take that hand out of my face before I break it" Death said harshly as he stared up at Raphael
"Jeez, lighten up Death and have you been sitting there all night. . . . . with your eyes open because if you did that's creepy" Raphael stated as Death rolled his eyes and got up
"Let's just get this over with" Death said dryly as Raphael nodded as he still stared at Death warily
"Come on everyone, let's get Death a Hunter's licence" Raphael said as his team groaned at his energetic happy-go nature
They all entered the building as Death noticed the surveillance equipment was keeping an eye on them along with the two guards at every wall and corner they passed by "Lot of protection" Death said out loud as a few guards narrowed their eyes on Death who rebutted as he flared his Wrath through his eyes to pierce into their mortal minds causing them to flinch and back down
"Well this is heavily secure place because a lot of classified information is here along with meetings with the heads of the four kingdoms, generals, and even the headmasters from the hunter programs gather here" Raphael explained as he didn't noticed Death glaring at the guards to a mental submission
"I say up the guards because I see none that prove a threat, only numbers" Death said as more glared at his direction and more flinched at his gaze backing down. Death was kinda enjoying crushing the pride of people before getting bored after awhile and his Wrath was running on low due to constant use. Didn't mean it won't come back because ever since Death came here his Wrath replenished faster without the use of attacking someone to gain said Wrath.
"Alright we're here" Raphael said as they now stood before a elaborate looking door and Death scoffed at the vanity "Death, a word please" Raphael said as Raphael walked to the side with Death "Listen, these are very influential people and they demand respect so could you please be respectful just until you get your licence" Raphael pleaded to Death who groaned and rolled his eyes
"I temporarily damper my sense of decency and expectation" Death said sarcastically as Raphael stared at him seriously causing Death to sigh "Fine, I won't insult the power hungry pricks. Happy" Death said dryly as Raphael let out a tired sigh
"Well I'm guessing that's the most we'll get out of you" Raphael said tiredly as Death shrugged as the two returned to the group "Ready to begin" Raphael asked
"Let's just get this over with" Death said dryly as Raphael nodded and opened the door
Well I hope you all enjoyed the prologue of the this story. Sorry if it was a little short or too religious at that middle part, don't worry will never happen again. . . . Literally I don't really like writing religious stuff, it always offends at least one or two people.
Well anyways I hope you enjoyed so please leave a comment, review, PM and I'll see you all later, have a great day.
