Ok, ok. for this story you have to know that 'Faith' one of the character's is magic. She is my O.C! Well she is composed of it and if any part of it is separated from her, well you'll see. You just need to know something bad will happen very bad! She needs to hide her magic away from everyone else but a few people.

NOTE:!! This is the first story of a series NO.1 next story will be mentioned at end!

Faith a teenager with bright blood red hair and brown heavy leather armor over her red/tan shirt and her black baggy pants that just covered the top of her red high heeled boots. Hidden behind a large pillar in a ancient precursor temple with bullets showering the back of it. Sweat dripped from her shoulder length red hair, and long red scarf like hair-band. She quickly swung around pulling out an average pistol and firing as fast as she could at the Metal Head firing back. It soon fell dead as she swung back to behind the pillar supporting the temple to reload her gun. As soon as she pulled out the ammo from the leather pocket, a Metal Head out of no where shot and was aimed straight for her. She winced and shut her eyes tight in reaction. Immediately hearing the sound of a bullet whizzing by as the assault was pulled off. She opened one eye to meat it with another.

"FAITH!" The orange ottsle named Daxter yelled out for her safety.

"DAXTER!" Faith yelled back meeting the ottsle with a warm hug.

"You know you'll never get away without a hug from ol' Faith." She said squeezing tighter with ever letter. Soon the ottsle passed out from the crushing hug.

"Good, ok what did you find other than Metal Heads?" Faith asked a blondish green haired teen about her age, named Jak, wearing heavy brown armor like her but with a brown sleeveless shirt and tan pants with gun's strapped to back.

"Nothing more than Metal Heads, why did Torn say that there were artifacts here?" He wondered out loud.

"I don't know but this old precursor temple gives me the chills." Faith said shivering a little handing the tired ottsle off.

Just then the giant statue in the middle of the temple had one of the swords complementing it, something huge and black moved with massive speed moved from it. Faith heard the creaking noise ring into her ears as her friend moved onto the exit. She soon wandered over towards the statue noticing the missing piece.

"What the heck? Were did that piece go?"

"You coming or what? You said that this place gave you the creeps."

"Yeah, I'm coming, hey Jak, is it just me or is that statue missing something?"

"What are you, your right, it is, it's swords hilt is gone."

Faith glanced over at the wall, with large balcony's on it and saw the black figure as before hanging around the statue.

"Is that thing really moving?" she wondered.

As she did the figure darted at her with knife wielded. "WOAH!" She blurted out flinching.

The figure in black was covered entirely, no part of them was showing. Faith quickly dodged it, while the strange figure in black put up a force-field so no one could interfere with them.

"Who are you, and what do you want with me?!" Faith screaming with every doge.

There was no reply all they did was swing there wooden dagger at her but failed to plant a hit on her. The figure in black jumped up with a flip and back up to the balcony with inhuman speed. The very moment the figure touched the tip of the balcony it darted right back down with even more speed. Faith tumbled over a brick sticking up from the rest of the floor, the figure in black barely went over her cutting her chin slightly. Faith quickly turned around pulling her rarely used gun out again of her holster and began to fire at it, the mysterious figure in black ran up a pillar behind its self and began to run up it until they got up above Faith and launched its self down. Faith quickly jumped out of the way with dust flying up off the sand and stone ground, with the bricks beneath her breaking and shattering.

In the cloud of brown dust the black figure whipped about holding there head as spikes and claws grew from every inch of there body. Faith trembled with slight fear as she had never seen this kind of demon before. The demon darted three times faster this time at Faith. Just missing every shot at her. Soon she had her gun drawn and the demon had plowed its claw into a pillar in an attempt to hit her head. She shot it square in the forehead as it got it's claw free. Faith for sure had thought she had killed it but just as she lowered her wall of defense, the demon leaned back up on its heels with its head still drooping as it's gray blotched skin stained in slowly with its own blood. The horrendous beast leaned its eyes back on Faith its bullet hole wound closing up and the blood secede to pore from the wound. Its ferocious fangs just seemed to gloss over with saliva as it smiled at her. Again its speed picked up and Faith was just able to doge it this time. Charging at Faith it nearly took off her arm and destroyed the wall behind the target making it rumble to the floor. Faith quickly glanced over at past the force-field expecting too see the two standing there watching but only seeing the semi-conchs ottsle. Faith forgetting about the demon for a moment, it charging at her, her receiving a claw clean through her chest. She was picked up by the demon as it stared at her with a demonic sneer crossing it's face.

"FAITH!"

She heard a voice call out as she looked up from the demon seeing Jak coming through one of the balconies. He quick shot a few rounds off of the Vulcan Furry into the back of the demon. The demons eye's rolled back into its head as it fell appearing dead dropping Faith as well. Blood pored from the both of them. Faith opened one of her dulled blood red crimson ringed eyes to see help on the way. She held the hole in her chest with her eyes shut tight from the pain as she was being lifted into a slight sitting position to have one of her arms swung over Jak's neck. Faith even in her state of weakness heard the demon get up. The demon bolting up scraping against the stone and charging once again. Quickly she swung around from the figure, blocking the attack but taking five long claws to the gut. As it felt like time had frozen the demon made its claws retract a inch or so then extend at least five more with excruciating speed. It quickly swatted at Jak throwing him head first into the ruined wall. As it held Faith with its claws through her stomach it pulled out four orbs of light, as it pulled out its claws letting her fall to the floor with blood beginning too pool around her. The demon quickly turned into a human form, the shredded black body suit regenerating not revealing its self for a second, and lowered the force-field and soon darted off into the desert without a trace.

Daxter woke up with the halt of sound, noticing the broken wall, the destroyed balconies, and his bloody friends.

"JAK, FAITH!" He yelled with great fear for his friend's lives.

He ran over to Jak and shook him by his collar hoping he would wake up, but with no success noticing the blood dripping from the rocks behind him. He quick ran over to Faith noticing the giant hole in her chest and the five slim slots though her stomach. He dared not to touch her as he noticed the pool of blood around her stepping in it hearing it as his paw like foot splashed in it. Daxter quick ran out of the temple to the Sand Shark radioing 'The Underground'.

"Torn, TORN! Are you there can you hear me?!" Daxter yelled frantic as anyone had ever heard him.

"Daxter, what are you freaking over? Where are you ,I've been trying to get a hold of you three for the past two hours!" Torn retorted with anger in his voice obvious by very little static over the radio.

"We have a serious problem, Jak and Faith are loosing blood fast! I can't do anything, I woke up from being knocked out and found the temple far to the west in ruin and them beaten to death!"

There was total silence after that and in hopes from Daxter that help would be there soon.
