AN: Okay so here it is. The first chapter of my first Fanfiction. I've been Thinking of how i would do this but i was always afraid of my ideas not being good. So please review. I definitely need it. Oh, that and a beta. Please and Thank You!

Jacob sensed them coming closer. They were running at him. Him and the little boy he was protecting. The wall seemed to close in as he and the boy raced down the tunnel the light at the end growing closer. Adrenaline pumped through him as he pushed himself to go faster.

"Jake," the boy wheezed out, Raven locks falling out of place." I can't breathe." Grabbing the boy's hand, Jake urged the boy on. "Come on, Adrian. We're almost there." But Adrian felt himself losing consciousness from shortness of breath. Jake caught him for his head hit the pavement.

"Shit," Jake hissed. He stopped to tend to his young companion." Come on, Adri. We have to keep moving. Please?" he pleaded. Panic flooded his system. The growls and footsteps were getting closer and Jake's options were becoming limited.

Fuck I don't have a choice. Pulling out the long staff strapped to his back, he readied himself for battle. Standing in front of his unconscious friend, Jake drew all the energy he could muster. He closed his eyes and pointed his staff to the darkness of the tunnel. "As páei."

A beam of pure light shot from the tip of his staff, lighting the tunnel. The growling turned into screams of agony as the light burned at rotten flesh. Once the beam and the screams came to a close, Jake fell to his knees, utterly spent he knew he needed to grab Adrian and go, but his legs felt like jelly from exhaustion.

Then he heard it: the footfalls. He reached for his staff to defend him and Adrian, but his vision was spotted. The ground seemed to spin under him and he had no energy left, but he had to try.

The footfalls grew closer and Jake pushed himself to his feet. This was different though. No growling? He asked himself. He still readied himself all the same. It may not be a fight he was going to win but he damn well was going to try.

"Hello," a voice called, the echoes carrying over Jake's ears. "Is anyone there? My name is Alice. I can help."

"Help," was the last thing Jake said before his world went black.
