CHAPTER 1: A NEW FACE

"Please, brother, don't do this."

He grimaced at the figure on the ground below him. "I am NOT your brother! You are nothing but a nuisance to me! You are the reason my plans have failed! And now,"

He raised his sword over his head, the blade hungry for flesh and thirsty for blood, "Now, I will rid myself of you," He smirked evilly, sporting a menacing look showing determination, getting ready to slash his current target. "FOREVER!" he shouted as he began to swing down.

TWO WEEKS EARLIER

"WHAT IS THIS THING!" Finn shouted to Jake, jumping on the beast's head. The monster was 15ft tall, half as wide, had a six-pack, huge muscles in his arms and legs, and a wolf-like face with beady, glowing red eyes, and had shag black-gray fur.

"I don't know, bro, but if this fight aint over soon, I don't think we will be able to stop it at all!" the dog replied, grabbing the monster's fists and holding it in place.

"GGGGRRRRAAAAHHHH!" Finn shouted, he had gotten on top of their fort, and was now in a stabbing dive aimed at the creature's head. As the blade made contact, the beast screamed in pain, its skin cracking open, revealing a blinding light that engulfed it. After the light faded, the monster had vanished.

"Wooooo…," Jake said, falling in relief and exhaustion. "Yea, that was a close one." Finn added. They had started to relax, but the moment didn't last, for a cry had sounded off in the distance. Jake, tired of all the action, moaned quite loudly. Why TODAY? Why ME? Why NOW? Jake thought to himself, getting up, growing, and carrying Finn towards the heart of the Great Plains, where the cry was heard.

Finn thought for a while, mentally consuming something till he had a final thought, a look of confusion and a mental hunger for his friend's opinion on the subject that was storming the human's mind. "Hey Jake…," he said finally. "Yeah, Finn?" "Did that shout sound different to you… like more… human?" Finn asked quizzically. "I don't know, maybe." Jake replied, wondering the same thing. Jake had noticed the shout that they were following sounded weird compared to the usual candy person, princess, or sprite they helped. "Hmm…" Finn thought.

…

"THERE! JAKE!" Finn shouted, pointing to something falling out of the sky. The dog stopped, letting Finn hop off before stretching his middle out like he could because of his special stretchy powers, reaching out into the sky, catching the item. "WHAT IS IT JAKE! WHAT WAS IT?" "I don't know Finn, it looks human, but it's not." Jake said, lowering the person. When Finn saw it, he knew what Jake meant.

It looked like a boy, but it had pale skin. He looked different than the people he had seen before, WAY different. He wore a zip-up hoodie, un-zipped and hood down behind his neck and shoulder-blades, he had a plain black shirt on under it, a black belt, black denim jeans that covered the tongue of his black skater-shoes and went behind the heel and under it. He had straight, jet-black hair that covered one eye. He looked REAL weird, like nobody Finn had seen before. His skin and hair led the heroic duo to believe this mysterious-looking teen wasn't from around here, and left it at that, though Finn thought that he might be a vampire. Finn had immediately decided to ask when the kid recovered and he had a chance to ask before making this decision final.

Snapping his friend back to reality, Jake saw him inhale, and he instantly felt a weight being lifted off his chest. Finn saw the boy's breathing movement and felt less uneasy, but still wasn't himself. "I don't know what he is, why he was falling, or where he came from, but he's not dead." Finn said, as focused and serious as physically possible. "We gotta bring it back and keep it safe."

What is about to be happening? What was with this new character, and why does he sound like he's emo? What IS he? Why WAS he falling? Where DID he come from? Yes, this mysterious new arrival is one of my own creation, and his name and age is revealed next chapter, as well as whether he is or is not a vampire. Which I hope the want to know will be killing you till next chapter...heh heh heh... I'm horrible XD
