This is the first time he ever went on a journey by himself like this. He can't believe he's doing this. He knew his uncle and the rest of the Wylders can't go outside of Highland city. He knew that. But ever since his older sister left without a word and it has been a month since now. Will Wildtail couldn't take it anymore and tries to convince his uncle that he wants to search for her even if he has to do it himself and alone.

Soon after a month and a half, his uncle gave in and tells him that his older sister is volunteering at the church. The Naturia church. A church that is newly formed using his other side of the family's heritage as a religion. The Naturia mages. Mages who specializes in the arts of magic, dabbling in the earth's elements in order to secure balance to Mother Nature. Will is one of a handful of males who are born under the clan since the majority are women like the older sister of course. However, long ago the witch hunts have started in Europe which the Naturia witches have decided to take a path of the pilgrims and journeyed to the New World which is now North America. They first landed on Canada where they meet the Wylders. Former demons who escaped from the persecution of Hell after the millennium war against the Dark Emperor. The demon world believed them to be extinct however that's what the Wylders wanted as they reside in forests and want to live in peace and to be left alone. Sometime later, a demon and a witch fell in love and Will and her sister are the product of that love.

Will knew his sister very well but he cannot understand why she left as this isn't like her. Regarding the church….

The public believes Naturia is just another branch of Wicca and nothing else. But there is something that is completely different about this branch. The Nature Church had a deity-well some can argue that it's an omen that is there to enforce the balance between man and nature. It had many names. Forest Monster. The Horned One. The Enforcer. The Great Omen of Nature. But the most infamous one is the Beast. The presence of the beast plagues over Highland for a couple of months by killing criminals with serious crimes. They were called the Beastly Murders. Will figured Bella is following the Beast and maybe that's why she left. To stop the beast.

But why? Why did she go out there alone? By herself?

Will sighs as he got onto the train that is heading to his location. He already transferred from one train to another. This one is from Capulet and going straight to another town. He noticed the train is quite crowded. And so, he walks in a straight line as he is looking for a seat while the train is in motion. After a while, he finds one open until suddenly, it is blocked as there is a huge case taking up the seat. He looks up to the person sitting next to the window.

Huh? The other wearing the headphones is a bit older than he is. Maybe around the age group. He has the whitest hair he has ever seen. It is like the winter which is completely contrasted to his autumn hair that is mixed with red and orange. Not to mention, he has pale skin as Will has fair skin. But what caught his eye is his sling. Did he get in the accident? The redhead thought the other is part of some rock band and maybe he got his arm injury during a performance. That explains the tall metal case he has with him.

Before Will makes any more assumptions, the train came to a rough halt making the boy trip over the case and land right next to the other.

Oh….this is going to be a rough trip.
