Chapter 1: Thirst for Death



A young hunter appeared from the large teleporter positioned near the Hunter's Guild, and slowly stepped from the glowing light.

His entire body was covered in blood, and his head was lowered as dark red blood dripped to the ground from a large gash on his forehead. He slowly lifted his head slightly, revealing the dark penetrating blue eyes beneath his dark gray hair. Most women would consider him handsome for he had a handsome complexion, and the long scar across his cheek seemed to heighten the overall effect. His black suit, now painted red, had many slots with which to put items in.

People stared in awe as the young hunter slowly dragged himself into the Hunter's Guild to the usually smiling woman at the counter, but her usually bright face was now replaced by a look of shock.

The hunter spoke, his voice deep and certain, but his words were barely above a whisper because he was injured so badly, "My.mis.sion.is..comp.p.." Before he could even finish his sentence he had fallen to the ground with a loud thud, and a puddle of blood appeared beneath him.

The woman screamed in shock and fear, and a ranger who was in the guild at the time lifted the young hunter on his shoulders and started running quickly towards the hospital.

Rachael, a hunter-in-training, was on Ragol fighting off several Boomas with her master Kireek, when the small communication device on her ear begins to crackle.

"Just a moment Master," She said and dipped into a bow of respect.

Kireek sliced through three boomas at one time with his unusually large scythe, and then he turned to her and nodded.

Rachael walked to a safe spot in the forest and tapped a small button on the device. "What is it?! Everyone knows it's bad luck to disrupt someone's training!" Rachael yelled into the device, not even caring who it was.

"I'm so sorry Miss Rachael.but we have some horrible news.it's Mr. Robert.." A young male voice responded on the device.

Rachael wasn't surprised, and she was amused to hear her brother called Mr. "What has he done now? I bet he stole some weapons from the shop, huh?" Rachael said amusingly into the device, smiling at the thought of her brother running from an angry clerk with swords and guns in his hands.

"No.you see. he's been injured horribly. They were Del Sabers from the ruins. We can tell his by the size of the cuts on him. He's in intensive..ca."

"WHAT!? MY BROTHER INJURED!! HOW THE HELL DID HE GET TO THE RUINS!?" Rachael cut him off, and her screaming made the communication device crackle violently.

"Please Miss Rachael. Just come to the hospital as soon as you can.." The man replied.

Rachael didn't reply and shut off the device. She then turned around only to be standing face to face with her master. Considering he was about two feet taller, however, she tilted her head up to him.

"I heard everything.you may go to your brother," Kireek's robotic, unemotional voice said, looking at her as if studying her.

"I'm sorry Master, and I promise I will continue my training with you as soon as Rob is alright!" Rachael said loudly, and she took a step back and bowed respectfully.

Kireek nodded and set up a glowing red telepipe for her. Rachael bowed again in thanks, and slowly walked to the telepipe. A loud thud near a large tree made her gasp in surprise and fear.



Cliffhanger! My first one anyway! Will Rob survive the onslaught from the Del Sabers, and why did he go into the Ruins anyway? And what sort of surprise is in store for Rachael and Kireek! All this will be known as soon as Chapter 2 comes!
