Chapter 1: Setting Off

The boy looked over the cliff at his once proud village. It was now engulfed in flames. Demons in the form of fiery wolves leapt through the wreckage. The boy was young, 13 or 14. He had long brown hair tied back in a ponytail and in his hand he held a scythe. Around his neck was a Shikon shard. He was no normal child. His father had been a powerful demon, his mother a common peasant. He was a half-demon, and lucky one too. He was out in the forest practicing with his scythe when the wolves attacked. With tears in his eyes, he turned away from the pain and ran into the forest.

2 Months later

The young half-demon walked down the road, scythe across his back. He paused, sensing something amiss. A demon walked out in front of his. He held a club. "Who are you to attempt to passsssssssssssssss" he said in a serpentine voice. His voice had a hypnotic edge to it. The boy seemed unaffected.

"I am Nikk, if you do not let me past this will be the last day you see."

"Ignorant whelp!" The demon charged him, swinging his club wildly. Nikk ducked fast and sliced up with his scythe. The demon fell, split in two. Nikk walked over his corpse and down into the town. He walked into the inn and asked for a room. He went up to his room and deposited his things. He went back down and sat at a table. He noticed a young girl sitting in a corner booth. She had blonde hair and two swords lay on the seat next to her. She couldn't be over 16. Then he realized he had been staring and she had noticed.

"You." she said, her voice warm yet threatening. "Come here". Nikk walked over and sat down. "You're not a normal child, right. You must be at least half demon."

"Yes, I'm half. What gave it away?"

"No one our age travels around alone unless they are a demon or a demon-hunter like me. But I can tell you mean me no harm. I saw you kill a demon up the road. I'm Kate. So what brings you here."

"My father. He sent demons after my village, not wishing for it to be known that I existed. But he failed, and I escaped. I've been hunting for him ever since... his name is Kandon, the helhound master."

"Ah, I have heard of him. Well..." she got up. "We'll leave tomorrow!"

"What! What do mean we!"

"Well you can't find him yourself and I've got nothing better to do."

"I never asked for help!"

"Yes, but you need it."

"Fine, whatever, you can come. But don't slow me down!" Nikk stormed to his room. He was angry, yet strangely relieved. He could use the company. O well, better make the best of it. Nikk turned over and went to sleep.

That's it. Sorry it wasn't that good, but it'll be better from now on. PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 reviews and I'll update!
