The Hunt

"Kuzo, it's time to go hunting in the forest! Remember to bring your bow and arrows this time instead of your swords!" Keith yelled across the house. He wore a white shirt, Black shoes and kaki pants. His hair is short and blonde.

"Alright I'll bring them this time Keith!" Responded Kuzo.

"Stop yelling you to and get going! It'll get dark soon!"

"Sorry father" Yelled Keith. "Come on slow poke."

"I'm coming man, hold your bow." Kuzo said as he slipped out of his room and followed Keith out of the house. Kuzo wore black pants that are made out of cotton and his shirt is blue with his sleeves ripped off. He had short brown hair that spiked up and had black shoes. He put his hands in front of his face to block out the light of the sun. "This definitely is a good day to hunt. Kind of bright thought, where's the new hunting spot you wanted to show me?"

"Right up here brother. Just a little further in the forest. Ah there we go, its there." He pointed to a large clearing in the trees, when they got closer Kuzo gasped. Keith let out a small giggle. "You like?"

"No, I love this." He responded with a smile. Kuzo sat down on a boulder to take in the view of the meadow. It was covered with flowers with trees here and there. "I've never seen so many Antelopes in my life. How did you find this place?"

"That's what I said when I found it. I was walking through the forest yesterday and found this spot by accident, I tripped over a rock and fell through a few trees that acted like walls." Keith said, stumbling through the words from laughter.

That morning they both hunted and caught a lot of antelopes. "Hey Keith! I'm going over there real quick."

"All right, don't take to long. We still got to go home remember?"

"Ya, ok. It won't be long." Kuzo walk into a set of bushes next to him and took him in front of an enormous cave.

"Awhoo!!!"

"Damn wolf. Die already." Said an unknown man.

Kuzo walks around to peak in the cave, Kuzo gasps while watching 2 men attacking a wolf. "Hold it you two!" Kuzo said pulling out both of his swords out of his sheath, the swords are longer than any katana, shaped like a crescent moon blade. The blade is pure black with silver streaks running through it. "No more hurting that wolf." He glanced to see it half dead.

"Who's going to stop us? You, HAHAHA!" Both of the men laughed and kicked the wolf once. "Kid you should have not interfered with our orders from the UZ. FEEL OUR WRATH!" They yelled, lunging toward Kuzo.

Kuzo launches toward them, both men sliced Kuzo's arm and leg. Kuzo whipped around and sliced the biggest man's head off. Kuzo drops to his knees in pain and noticed one of them get him in the stomach also. "Damn, how did he get me in the stomach, didn't expect these people to be this hard."

"Haha, stupid kid, you may have killed my brother but you wont kill me, I'm faster. Lets see if you can't keep up." He stabbed Kuzo in the back with his sword. Kuzo dropped to his stomach. "Lets see if you can stand shall we." The man laughed.

Kuzo slowly pushed himself and balanced against the cavern wall till he got his feet, stumbled toward his sword and picked it up with a painful moan and got ready to fight. "I will not give up so easily." He said in a low voice. But he couldn't help but to wonder how he was so fast.

"Boy you are stupid, you have a sword in your back, just run and forget what you see here. You can't keep up with me, just give up." The man laughed as he lunged toward Kuzo with his sword in front of him. Kuzo barley stepped away and in a swift motion he stabbed the man in the spinal cored. The man fell to his knees. "How could this have hap…" He dropped to his stomach and died.

Kuzo stumbled over to the wolf and knelt beside it. Wondering if it's ok he tries to check it but he dropped over the wolf and slowly died.
