Hello and welcome to RWBY: The BloodTinge Hunter this is my first Fanfic and certainly won't be the last i have rewrote this a bit by changing up and adding new stuff to it albeit small changes.

"What are you still doing here? Enough trembling in your boots. A hunter must hunt." - Eillen the Crow

Chapter 1: Easing Gehrmans Suffering... Start

Three figures covered in blood could be seen panting from exhaustion in the distance a corpse of a giant creature a few feet away from them if one listen closely you could hear one of them saying something.

"Holy shit *pant* *pant* w-we did it we actually did it," the first figure said panting and huffing as his lungs burned and left eye hurt from the long fight him and his other companions had.

"Well I be damned we *Cough* d-did it ha haha" the second figure said but his voice sounded … off like it was strained or should more say undeveloped.

Both figures looked at there third partner who was laying on his back panting and bleeding from his side he was holding his wound he seemed pale for that reason but his body language said otherwise he opened his mouth but no words came out, maybe it's due to the scars going across his neck were his vocal cords would be but you wouldn't know that seeing as how the armor he was wearing was covering that, to them they knew what he said. (AN* We will get to who they are really soon. But why figure one's eye hurts figure two's voice sounds like that and figure three's a mute will be explained later .)

"We fucked him up didn't we," the third figure started to sign before passing out from blood loss (AN* I maybe taking American Sign Language but typing it like how you're supposed to sign is hard as hell and confusing for people that haven't taken sign language)

Walking over to there downed partner the first figure bent down and stabbed a blood vial into his friends leg and watched as his injury's heal completely waking him up as well from his unconsciousness, the other two figures proceeded to inject themselves with blood vials as well the second figure turned to the first.

"Sooo, what are we gonna do now Matthew?" said the second figure (AN* Yep i'm in the story)

"Now Frosty, now we go after Mergo," Said Matt naming our second figure

"Are you sure we can even do that?" Signed the third figure

"Yes Lewk we can and we will nothing can stop us at this point," Said Frosty naming our final figure.

As the three were discussing there plans the moon shined it light onto the three showing there features.

Matthew was 17 years old at 5'10 a average height with his hair in a medium pony tail in the middle part of the back of his head with his left side buzzed. His right eye was a dark brown which use to be full of life and happiness were now dull showing he had seen many horrors and tragedies in his short life, he had a eyepatch on his left eye made from black leather it had a symbol of a eye on it, it glowed to show it was protecting him with arcane magic from whatever was behind it, a scar could be seen faintly behind the upper and lower part of his eyepatch, he has the body of a swimmer and runner put together showing he had speed and power in his muscles.

Matthew was wearing the Yamamura armor set a set of clothes that he attained from the corpse of Yamamura the Wanderer, the leather hat was called the Yamamura Hunter Hat, it was sorta like a top hat but it had a point at the front the sides were bent upwards like a cowboy hat which were frayed on the backs of them and the back was completely flat, it usually covered his head and eyebrows but was currently pushed back, he was wearing a scarf to cover his mouth but it was currently down showing a young face with a small nose and average size lips his eyebrows were cut and trimmed thinly, his Chest armor was the Khaki Haori which was a garb of a distant Eastern land and was made from silk and cotton as the name suggested they were Khaki in color, Matthew's gloves were called Old Hunter Arm Bands they were more like fighter handwraps though and his pants were called the Wine Hakama there color was dark grey so the name is quite odd.

Frosty was 19 years old at a amazing 6'6 his hair was medium length but was tame and was in a more emo flip he was very thin but wasn't a unhealthy thin it showed that he was fast really fast, his eyes were just like Matthew's, Frosty's were a dull Green he was wearing the infamous CrowFeather Set. Frosty's plague doctor mask called the Beak Mask just like the name implies looks like the nose of the mask is a bird beak it covered his whole face so nobody could see what his face looked like unless he removed his mask. It was custom made to look sinister, it had a blood splatter effect on it with dark red and brown wood paint with actual blood mixed in and where the eye sockets were the black glass was red.

His upperbody was covered in the CrowFeather Garb it was custom unlike other CrowFeather Garbs Frosty's had on a skintight leather chest plate which had two bandoleers of knives and quicksilver bullets on it the crow feathers and tattered cape were still there. He had standard CrowFeather Manchettes which were just leather gloves that went up to his elbow they had some crow feathers embedded into them, on his pants were standard CrowFeather Trousers.

Lewks was 19 years old as well he was a shocking 5'2 but even though he was short he made up in battle prowess he could tank even the strongest of foes his hair was a short well kept faux hawk hairstyle, he was very muscular but wasn't a walking dwarf mountain of muscle he had the body of a fighter, lean and strong muscles he was wearing by far the most interesting armor set out of the three of them, it was called the Bone Ash set it's hat looked to be a witches hat with a skull facemask with 4 eye sockets if one looked closely they would notice it was a real skull, it's upperbody was a leather jacket that protected the wearers body and neck from any harsh elements or blood. The gauntlets were custom made by Matthew to have the claws produce a very deadly bleed effect if one swipes at an enemy so it was also a weapon. The pants had a skirt made from chainmail and from cloth it was dyed black and grey

All three of them looked at the corpse of Kos and saw a black mist like figure standing there looking at the moon, Frosty and Lewk looked at there friend before Matt Sighed and walk up to it

"Cursed beast may you never harm another soul ever again " Matt said as he raised his chikage to kill the apparition.

It looked at him before Matt brought down his chikage and slashed at the ghost making it dissipate.

"Umbasa" whispered Matt both Frosty and Lewk looked at him as he said that and pressed there hands together in prayer "Umbasa" whispered both Frosty and Lewk, they didn't kill these beasts and just forget about it after all these beast as people saw them were once humans, sometimes after they return to the Hunters Dream they would say Umbasa as a prayer to send the souls of the beasts to an everlasting peaceful slumber. Even if the sweet child of Kos wasn't human or beast it was a Infant Great One, a greater being that had transcended to a higher plane of existence they were gods in laymens term.

Matthew stepped back as and watched the black smoke float towards the water with Lewk and Frosty, not hearing someone say something cryptic.

"...Ah sweet child of Kos, returned to the ocean... A bottomless curse, a bottomless sea. Accepting of all that there is and can be"

Frosty, Lewk and Matt went to the lamp that appeared after they had slain the Orphan of Kos and went to the hunters dream.

(HUNTERS DREAM)

Waking up in the hunters dream our three Hunters prepared for the worst, Lewk went to the messengers bath to see if the little ones had anything new while Frosty went inside the hunters hut above to upgrade his weapons and prepare for Mergo While Matthew went to talk to The Doll as she was called.

The Doll was created by the Dream to help the new Hunters that were dragged into the Dream she had the ability to channel *Blood Echos*

"Oh, good hunter. I can hear Gehrman sleeping. On any other night, he'd be restless. But on this night, he sounds so very calm. ...Perhaps something has eased his suffering" said The Doll with a small smile on her porcelain face

"I've noticed Gehrman seems quieter" said Matt with a smile on his face knowing him and his friends helped there teacher. "Well I have to get ready after all the hunt isn't done quite yet".

"Alright good hunter may your hunt be bountiful" said The Doll as she bowed her head

*Sigh* "Well I guess it's time to talk to Gehrman lets see how he's doing" Matt said as he walked over to Gehrman The First Hunter also known as the Watcher of hunters he had taught them how to fight and everything they knew... well okay taught is a REALLY loose term more like throw them to the dogs

"Hello Gehrman it's been awhile" said Matthew as he walked next to Gehrman and let the Messengers pull a chair out of there pool

"Yes it has my boy yes it has ... you know you three have been here for two years correct" Gehrman said as he looked over at Matt

Matthew thought about it he was 17 now and Lewk and Frosty were both 19 he thought back to when they first arrived at the hunters dream

*FLASHBACK 2 Years ago*

The three Hunters had just arrived at the Hunters Dream and looked around confused they had just died... Right?.

Our three hunters looked at each other and saw there appearance Matthew was 15 years old he was 5 foot 7 and weighed about 175 pound he wasn't buff but he did have muscle he had a more runners physique then anything he had brown hair that was pulled into a ponytail in the back and had his left side shaved like a undercut with his front bang on the right side covering his eye slightly it was a traditional haircut were he was born for men with long hair, his eye's dark brown and were currently bloodshot from the stress of dying.

Lewk was 17 years old he was short at the height of 5 foot 2 with really dark brown hair to the point were you would mistake it for black he has hazel colored eyes his hair was short it was a fauxhawk really but shorter and was a very talkative person who was very funny but was a complete smartass, His home town of Drovak was a city of merchant traders and fighters, Lewk himself being a master blacksmith after he forged a spear for there King of Drovak, King Murphy of Elsiar born in the small village neighboring Drovak was impressed by the spear that he asked who forged it when Lewk and his father stepped forward Lewks father told the king that Lewk wanted to prove to the king that there was no finer blacksmiths in Dravok then the Silver Wolf Fang smithy were even the best of the kingdoms knights and mercs shopped, upon hearing this granted the title Master Blacksmith to a young Lewk

Frosty was 17 years old as well he was a amazing 6 foot 2 and looked like a giant to people he had black hair with a streak of silver how or why he had it nobody know even he doesn't, his hair was covering his left eye seeing as he had medium hair it was in a unkempt flip style, another thing was that being 6 foot was a very common height for people were he was born from and the tallest person in history were he lived at was 10 feet tall and weighed 1500 pounds of pure muscle he was a archer who's name was lost in time sadly who wielded a great bow forged from titanium and another unknown mineral,

The three of them saw no damage to them no claw marks in there clothes nothing, they saw something laying against a wall curious they walked over to it they saw it was just a plain old Doll.

"How are we still alive? " said Frosty slightly paranoid after knowing he had a clawed hand shoved though his chest.

"I- I don't know I thought us three died from that- that beast!" shouted Matthew stressed from this whole crazy ordeal first he found out he had contracted a disease called ashen blood that's incurable with any type of medicine except for a rumored cure in a city called Yarhnam and traveled all the way to Yarhnam to get said cure for it, having a nightmare about said beast that killed them and hearing a female voice say "Ah, you found yourself a hunter" now he's in some strange place with two people he doesn't even know.

"... Maybe we are dead maybe were in purgatory" Lewk said sorta calmly but not so much if the shifting of his eyes to see everywhere in front of him was a indication.

Matt looked at them both and said "M-My name's Matthew but you can call me Matt ... What are your guys names?"

"Frosty b-but you can call me Frost" said Frosty with a small smile seeing that Matt was trying to calm them down

"my name's Lewk with a e-w-k not a u-k-e" said Lewk with a giant smile though still nervous

Looking at the stairs to the right of them they saw a watery void with thick fog coming from it laying on the ground, walking over to it they freaked out and jumped back slightly as small humanoid creatures came out and held three … Weapons?. A sawcleaver thing, a axe and a cane.

"They seemed to be trying to, give them to us" said Matthew weirded out by them slightly as the creatures had no eyes and made moaning and groaning noises,

Matt reached down and picked up the cane seeing as how the cane was like a sword being bladed and also feeling weak in the knees from exhaustion and well the axe looked too heavy and the cleaver looked too complicated,

Lewk grabbed the axe he always was a tank even in his childhood he fell from a 15 foot tall tree and got up like it was nothing didn't even complain when he noticed his arm was bent sideways he went to the towns doctor and had them pop it back into place,

Frosty grabbed the only weapon left the saw cleaver and saw how natural it felt giving it a few test swings he quite like the weight.

the three saw another pool and walked over to it this time not jumping back in fear when the humanoid things came out they saw 3 guns. (AN* I know there's only two guns ingame the Hunter flintlock and the Hunters Blunderbuss but since it's not 1 hunter but 3 gotta give it more flavor as my friend said.) The three guns were a flintlock pistol, a Blunderbuss and a rifle from the looks of it,

Lewk immediately grabbed the Blunderbuss no questions asked Frosty grabbed the flintlock and Matt grabbed the rifle, Matt looked at the creatures and said thank you before heading towards the door more up the steps they noticed another pool this time with three notebooks for them they said thank you and looked at the double doors and tried to open them.

"They won't budge" Matt said as he pushed then pulled to see if the door would open "Try the other one I saw it up the path next to the birdbath".

"Alright I'll check" said Lewk as he was about to check he noticed something, "Hey look there more of those things around that headstone!" both Frosty and Matt looked over to where Lewk was pointing to, to see that he was correct indeed.

Walking down the steps and towards the gravestone they saw a glowing name on the headstone it said *Iosefka's Clinic*, Matt went and touched the glowing name and before any of them could say or do anything Matt started to fade away.

"Wh-What?, what just happened" Asked Frosty as he was confused why did Matt disappear

"Should we go after him?" Said Lewk looking at Frosty, Frosty looked back and nodded and they both touched the head stone they both faded as well.

(Waking world Iosefka's Clinic)

(Matt's POV)

"Aaaaaaaaaah what the fuck" Screamed Matt as he started patting his body down to see if he was all there and not missing body parts he heard stories of people vanishing and appearing in pieces, seeing that everything was there he calmed down and waited for the other two to appear after waiting 5 minutes nobody came. "What the fuck!, whats taking them so long?" questioned Matt noticing he had 5 bullets made of … quicksilver? "What?, but quicksilver is a liquid metal it shouldn't be solid and is that blood!" Matt said as he looked at the quicksilver bullets and notice two red drops of blood on it.

"I have to get going then no time to wait on there slow asses" Huffed Matt in anger he hated when people took too long and with his fear rising it didn't bode to well with him walking through the doors they had just went though before they died Matthew heared chewing and flesh being eaten walking slowly and stealthy to the beast that had killed the three of them previously,

he knew he had to kill the beast so he got up close and swung at the beast hitting it in it's side drawing a thick and large amount of blood that hit him right in the face Matthew didn't flinch as the blood coated his face and covered the upper chest of his coat.

the beast didn't even care as it quickly swung around and tried to slash at Matt with it's sharp blood covered claws it was a few inches from clawing out a chunk of Matt's side but he jumped back at the last second not giving up his advantage he jumped forward and slashed at the beast cutting off the beasts hand and watched as it couldn't stand falling forward onto it's face, Matt not wasting anymore time shoved the sharp pointed stud at the end of his cane down onto the beasts skull with all his force not only shattering the skull but making the cane go right through it piercing the brain and going right through the jaw.

"See how you like it you fuck" Yelled Matt as he gave a warcry of victory as he got off the beast he noticed it had a glow to it's stomach so he cut into it's stomach to see what it was, three vials of blood with long needles were on it.

" ... Fucking hell why did it have to be needles, I hate needles especially long ass needles it looks to be over 5 inches long " complained Matt as he pocket them in this pouch he also received from the "creatures of the pool" as he dubbed them till he found out what they were called. Matthew moved out of the room and saw a body in the left corner with a glow as well but saw that it was more blood vials in his hand he just got 2 from a poor sod that died with a face of fear.

Matthew got down on one knee and closed the corpses eyes,

"Poor bastard died by such a beast may you rest in peace" he got up on his feet and walked up the stairs he saw a door "Better not be locked" thought Matt as he pushed the doors to see if they were locked they weren't just his luck.

he pushed them open and saw it was a … graveyard well fuck him sideways if one were to look they were the previous family owners of this place, Matt saw another glow next to a creature pool this time it was infront of a grave he walked over and saw it was … holy shit 10 quicksilver rounds JACKPOT (AN* XD this was what literally went though my head when I grab these the first time playing Bloodborne)

Matthew then looked at the pool and saw the little creatures they had a message, it read "Matt it's me Frosty I didn't see you so I left this message in hopes that you find it Lewk wasn't next to me even when we touched the glowing name at the same time if you're reading this i'm headed up the ladder up the road there's a lamp up it at the top see you again when ever that maybe. PS I found out your weapon has another ability there should be a small circular button near the grip press it then swing your weapon it should transform my weapons blade just extends but it's really useful I wonder what yours and Lewks weapons do"

His jaw was on the floor Frosty didn't leave him to wait he left him behind completely instead. "Wait how? I left before him!, and what does he mean I didn't see you or Lewk. Fuck it no questioning it"

he looked at the iron gate next to him and pushed as hard as he could seeing that the gate was rusted he pushed them all the way he walked forwards down the stairs on the other side of the street and looked at the surrounding towers and building of Yarhnam "*Whistle* damn Yarhnam looks amazing but no time to be looking around I need to find that lamp Frosty said he found" looking to his left he saw a corpse with that knowing glow walking over to it he picked up 4 blood vials.

"Why do I get the feeling that these are gonna be really important?" said Matt as he started to jog up the path and decided to do what Frosty instructed he found a small button on the grip and pressed it Matt noticed it made a noise and stayed pressed in so he flicked the cane sideways and now it was a whip blade … "Fuck the hell yes I chose a amazing weapon I do say so my self" shouted Matt not knowing that around the carriage infront of him there was somebody or should I say something ready to kill him.

Before Matt had anytime to react a woodcutting axe was shoved blade first right into his stomach and yanked out hard drawing a large amount of blood and gore quickly Matt's fight or flight alarms went off and he chose fight swinging the whip blade around he sliced up the crazed person infront of him not even noticing that as blood splashed onto him from attacking the person his wounds healed or a White colored light flashed around his wounds as Matt swung the whip blade he wrapped it around the crazed persons neck and pulled completely severing his head from his body.

Breathing lightly his looked down and noticed the huge chunk of stomach missing from the axe slashing him was healed and he felt like he was at his 100% he also saw a glow from the persons pocket it was a Molotov Cocktail walking past the dead body he saw another glow against the wall after a lever and grabbed it, it was 2 bloodvials he then saw two more crazy looking people and threw his molotov at one burning him alive the other one hopped up and ran like a drunk at Matt so he did the only thing he could do he grabbed the persons arm which had an axe in it and broke it and preformed a Osoto Otoshi, which means major outer drop it's a throw technique as the crazed person hit head first into the concrete ground his head split open killing the crazed bastard,

Matthew cracked his back slightly straight "Holy shit I will never do that again till I get stronger" he saw another glow in the corner and grabbed it it was 6 Molotovs little known fact about Matthew were he comes from everybody once they turn five learn whats know as CQC Judo a very deadly hand to hand fighting style in the hand of a master, just so happens that Matt was given the rank of master before he contracted Ashen blood but he's never threw a person that weighted 500 pounds

He walked back to the lever and pulled it lowering the ladder and started to climb it "I wonder if my Friend Ken is doing okay back home he said I shouldn't of worried about the disease and just head to Yarhnam" said Matthew as he climbed the ladder.

"Maybe I should bring him a souvenir yeah he wou-" Matthew was cut from his musing as a high pitch ghastly screech was heard across the sky almost making him let go of the ladder and falling to his death "What in the hell was that!" shouted Matt as he held onto the ladder and looked around for a few seconds before climbing again and making his way to the top and saw … a lamp

"Huh guess Frosty was right ... now how am i gonna light it" Matt said as he saw no way to light the lamp just as he said that a group of the little creatures appeared in there small pool holding out a... blue glowing Skull? "um okay little fellas, I guess" Matt said as he went to grab it, it turned to dust and absorbed into his skin Matt dropped down onto his knees in agony as his mind was assaulted with images of creatures, people, names and last but not least memories of a madman (AN* yes I know your probably wondering why I gave myself a madman's knowledge without even trying well I kind need the Doll sooner then later for the story and theirs a lot of reason for insight)

After a few minutes Matt crawled over to the lamp on a auto pilot of sorts and grabbed a burning incense stick that seemed to shimmer into existence when he absorbed the madman's knowledge and lit the lamp he saw his "Messengers" as they were called around the lamp praying apparently the Madman's Knowledge gave him insight on what they were and some other stuff looking at the lamp he felt tired and decided to sleep no one around to see his body fade

(HUNTERS DREAM)

Waking up in a daze Matthew heard three voices and after his vision cleared saw Lewk and Frosty standing by the Doll who was currently standing and talking to them about Blood Echo's The Doll looked at Matt with a blank face and said "Ah, good hunter your back come I was just telling your friends here about Blood Echo's"

Frosty and Lewk looked behind them super fast to the point were if you listen closely you could here there bones crack to see Matt standing there dazed but walking over slowly to hear what this Doll had to say.

"Good now we can begin, Blood Echos are memory's hidden inside the blood of the beasts you slay in Yarhnam they are a form of currency for the little ones or I can channel your Blood Echos to give you new strengths." The Doll said with a blank face "Any questions?"

A small choir of no was heard "Good now please head upstairs to talk to someone who you must meet" with that they ascended the stairs and pushed open the door to see a nice big but very crowded hut with books lying everywhere and a wall with weapons hanging on them they noticed a old man in a wheelchair sitting on the other side of the room seemingly sleeping Matt walked up and shook his shoulder to wake him up "Snore, Snore, Sno- Grumble, Grumble" looking at the three he said "Ah-ah. You must be the new Hunters. Welcome to the Hunters Dream. This will be your new home, for now. I am... Gehrman, friend to you hunters. You're sure be in a fine haze right about now, but don't think about all of this too much. Just go out and kill a few beasts, it's for your own good. You know, it's just what hunters do! You'll get used to it" said Gehrman as he started to dose back off to sleep but not before making something for the three hunters

*Flashback end*

He literally threw us to the beasts but his training methods weren't bad really it showed us that we had to rely on each other Gehrman made us three badges they looked more like dog tags then anything with our full names and birth dates, our blood types and they had our titles on them when we earned them during our journey through the hunt, they made it so that when we all went back to Yarhnam we would all be there and not in different time lines as he said that for some reason Yarhnam has a weird way of working thank to the dream.

"Gehrman how are you feeling I heard from the Doll that you're sleeping properly now" asked Matt with a smile visible on his face as he sat down on a chair next to Gehrman.

"Just fine my boy just fine, theirs still one more thing you must do though before the hunt is over." said Gehrman as he looked over at his favorite of the three, Matthew took Gehrman's teaching to heart and even if Gehrman didn't give them actual training his wise tidbits on what to do next helped them out in a pinch.

"I know… Mergo can't you hear him his cry's" and just like Matt said there was a baby's cry but it sounded to be coming from all around them "I still think we ca- Aah *hiss* fuck I hate this stupid eye " Matt said as he was interrupted by his left eye that was covered by a eyepatch hurting a really excruciating pain as his left eye had a river of bloody tears running down his face from underneath his eyepatch behind it was the eye of a Blood Drunk Hunter, a parting gift from the beast that took his left eye away.

One could see the Doll jog frantically to Matthew as she crouched and looked at his face she saw that it was just the eye acting up again and handed him something that would surprise anyone it looked to be a cigarette but when lit it smelled like... incense?

"Thank you Doll you can go talk to the little ones now oh and if you see Duncan tell him I said thank you for the Chikage it saved us" Matt said as he inhaled the incense to calm the beastly blood in him after all incense blessed by the dream helps calm the beast more then normal incense used by the Healing Church plus apparently it makes it smokeable too so whatever Dream incense is better.

"Alright good hunter I will see you later then, oh. And I will let Duncan know" said the Doll as she walked away still worried about her friend and that accursed eye that she implanted into Matthew's eye socket she walked over to the little ones and started chatting with them

Gehrman saw that Matt was fine and just needed time for the eye's pain to dull over so he decided to go to sleep like the tired old man he was and should be but before he could Matthew shook him waking him slightly.

"Gehrman I have something for you" Matt said as he pulled out of a Messengers portal, the Rakuyo

Gehrmans eyes widened in shock the weapon of his first student and the student he fell in love with … Maria, tears weld up in his old eyes as he got up and held the blade in his hand tears pored down his face as he dropped to his knees and cried real tears for the first time in along time not since he was trapped here in the Dream and that was 80 years ago when the first hunt happened he was 30 years old with Maria being 29 before she disappeared his age was stopped completely when he hit 80 .

Gehrman quickly recollected himself and hugged Matt "Thank you my boy thank you for bringing real tears of sadness and joy to me I haven't cried like that in quite some time, and I'm happy to see Rakuyo back again. But how did you get this?"

"You're welcome Gehrman you deserve it and for how I got it the blood drunk eye let us go into a nightmare like Mensis and we fought Blood drunk hunters from when you weren't stuck in the dream most notably the Powder Keg Branch, Maria was there she talked with us but we had to fight her and slay her she handed me that and said to give it to you after all when I mentioned you she seemed happy."

Gehrman smiled knowing that even though she didn't show it Maria loved him just as much as he did her "Well I better not take anymore of your time. Go now go slay that nightmare called Mergo and end this hunt" Gerhman sat down in his wheelchair and feel asleep clutching Rakuyo in a soft but tight grip

(Matts Pov)

I sat up and started to walk into the Hunter hut and saw Frosty going over his equipment all of it his blades of mercy and Reiterpallasch a rapier that had a firearm in the hand guard when it's trick form was activated the blade moves over like a bayonet, to his firearms Evelyn and the Hunter's Flintlock to his Crow Feather armor set.

I walked over and tapped his shoulder he looked over to see me and nodded and picked up his gear and moved over to the coffin chest as we called it so he could gather 20 blood vials and quick silver bullets.

I placed my gear up on it the workbench my chikage was the only weapon besides the threaded cane i used but I stopped using that, guess it's time to break it out even now both the chikage and threaded cane were the only melee weapons i used.

upgrading my chikage and threaded cane to to maximum using blood stones I grabbed my firearms Ludwigs Rifle and my all time favorite the Gatling gun, apparently someone in the Powder Keg branch made a portable version of Djura's Gatling gun so I grabbed it and fitted it with some custom Caryll runes, apparently Caryll wasn't the only one who had a nack for runes my custom runes can be placed on weapons with a rune branding iron made by yours truly.

My runes were called quicksilver it's symbol was that of three bulletholes and blood drops leaking out of them which allowed you to fire 5 times before consuming a quicksilver bullet, you can see why that's amazing with the Gatling gun as when you fire it once it shoots 5 bullets before consuming a quicksilver and reverse time flow which looks like a clock but the numbers are backwards when I kill any beasts or invading hunters it resets my quicksilver and bloodvials to 20 again but it's a 25% chance so it's not too over powered as Lewk and Frosty keep saying it is, i guess with both of them combined then yes i can see that there over powered but still there really amazing so both my firearms both my blades and my armor set which was the Yamamura set was upgraded to the max, I was ready.

(Matt's POV end)

The three hunters were currently looking at the Gravestone surrounded by the Messengers they were ready to to fight and slay Mergo, Frosty was in his Crow Feather Set,

Lewk was in his set the Cainhurst set an armor set used or should say was used by the knights of Cainhurst castle they found out that the beasts could cut through metal armor like it was flesh so hunters took heed of this and started using leather and cloth instead but then again after all of these years Queen annalesse fixed that problem, at least for Lewk she did seeing as they are both the last Vilebloods left. His weapons the Moonlight Greatsword and the Logarius' Wheel both infamous named weapons his firearms were both heavy hitting firearms the Cannon and the Hunters Blunderbuss.

Matt was ready looking over he saw Lewk and Frosty were ready he looked over at the Doll and smiled for her and nodded at Gehrman, Matt and Gehrman they had a plan to destroy the dream and break the curse of Yarhnam.

"Well lets do this then guys lets slay a true nightmare" said Matt as he put on his scarf and set his Gatling gun on his back

"And lets hope this hunt ends tonight" Frosty said straining his voice to sound clearer

"Yes lets destroy this nightmare once and for all" signed Lewk putting on his helmet

...

Tonight Matthew The BloodTinge Hunter joins the hunt

Tonight Frosty the Blood Addled Hunter of Hunters Joins the hunt

Tonight Lewk the Vileblood Executioner joins the hunt
