Chapter 0: A Prelude to the Calm
A warrior dressed in black is fighting in a field; his opponents are beastly creature's half human half beast. The half beasts have an army of 10,000 while he is alone; they charge him with swords, spears, fangs, and claws brandished ready to tear his flesh apart. Maniacal laughter suddenly pierces the din of battle, it's emanating from the warrior, his cloak is thrown back and two blades are at his side, he grabs them, laughs once more and they the beasts are upon him.
~15 minutes later~
The half beasts are now sitting by a fire eating and celebrating their victory, they have hunted this man for over a year, but now they have finally got him.
A shadow flits from one rock to another; the beasts are unaware of it presence.
*Rough tone* "I can't believe that it took so long to kill the wretched human, but in the end he was weak like all humans."
*Deep tone* "I know what you mean, he kept us chasing him for over a year and he turned out to be a weakling, to bad I was hoping for a good fight."
*Crack*
"What was that?"
All the beasts turn to look.
*Whispering* "Wrong move."
The beasts at the back are silently killed, as they continue to drop dead they others are unaware. They suddenly one of the beasts utter a scream when they to become part of the growing graveyard behind them. They others turn around and see the carnage; they get to their feet and ready their weapons. A figure steps forward from behind the newest corpse.
"Next time make sure your prey is dead."
He slashes his sword in the air and all the beasts in front of him die, except the warlord. The warrior dashes forward and knocks the warlord down, he points the tip of his blade at the warlord's neck.
"But it's not like you'll ever get to use that advice, heh."
*Squelch*
With his enemies dead he turns and leaves.
*Mindspeak* ("Next time we fight you're the bait ok Aalok.")
("I don't think so Ablade, if it wasn't for your unique abilities we all would be dead.")
("He makes a good point Ablade, you have to be bait or we all die.)
("Shut up Orpheus. Enough out of both of you, I have to change back.)
The warrior dressed in black, with one eye red, the other amethyst purple, and with hair dark black suddenly changes, his appearance goes to that of a boy around the age of 18 with grey eyes, white hair, clothes of a person you might find on such a planet like earth for example. His facial features also change from a harden warrior to that of an innocent kid with a lot on his mind.
"Well let's go, we have to get back to the inn or the innkeeper will charge us for another day."
*Hummmmmmmmmm*
The warrior, now civilian turns around, a green oval shaped object about as big as he is, is floating in front of him. He walks up to it and touches it, the next moment he's gone with the object.
