The Beginning-Chapter One

It was a cold day, not like the other cold days on this planet, no, it was much colder. Amongst this coolness there was a heat; a heat so intense ice would melt by the slightest touch. On this cold yet warm day, a little girl was born to two outlaws. This little girl was given the name Hilda. Her outlaw name would be Hot Ice Hilda after her parents' outlaw names of Cold Ice and Heat Agony. And so the life of the great Hot Ice Hilda begins..

"She's beautiful isn't she?" says Hilda's mother with a smile. "Yes. She's a beautiful girl just like her mother" her father says with a smile himself. "Our little girl", said her mother happily, "our little Hot Ice Hilda. Do you think she'll have what it takes to be an outlaw?" "Of course, after all she is our daughter", said her father with a laugh. Her mother laughed as well and said, "Yes, I suppose your right".

With those few sentences spoken her outlaw life was determined; she was to be the greatest outlaw anybody had ever seen. Her life was lived as a normal little girl until the age of five. When she was five, things changed, and fast.

"I wish I could go with you on this bounty hunt, but someone has to stay with Hilda", said her mother sadly. "Yes I know. At least I know my little Hot Ice will be taken care of. Hilda come here. I want to speak with you before I go", said her father in a bit of a serious tone. "Alright dad", said the future outlaw following her father outside. "Hilda, let's go for a walk. You remember the forest I always took you to right?" her father said. "Yes father. I love that forest. It's always so calm and quiet and yet it feels so dangerous" Hilda said in an almost intellectual tone.

The two walk into the forest. In the middle of the forest are two tree stumps sitting alone. Her father had cut the trees when Hilda was born so that they could have a quiet place to come to and talk. One stump was slightly higher than the other was. Hilda's father sat on the higher stump and motioned for her to sit on the other one.

"Hilda I want you to promise me something" said her father in a worried tone. "Promise you what?" said Hilda questionably. "I want you to promise to become the greatest outlaw ever in the history of outlaws. I want you to become stronger and greater than your mother and I put together" her father said. "That'll be hard, but for you dad I promise" Hilda replied with a smile. "Thanks Hilda. Oh, and another thing. I want you to take this dagger to start you off" "Thanks dad" Hilda says as she takes the dagger. "This dagger Hilda, is passed down from generation to generation to generation. It is normally passed down to a son but unfortunately your mother and I weren't blessed with one. I have no other choice but to pass it down to you to keep the tradition going"

They sit not saying a word. With that the dagger is passed down to a girl, Hilda. In the battle with the bounty her father was killed. A few weeks later her mother went after the same bounty and was, too, killed. Within those few weeks, Hot Ice Hilda lost her only family and was left alone in the cold, cruel world of an outlaw.
