Chapter 1: The Meeting of the Two
Damn. This monster sure is ugly and hard to beat, Fiora thought as the huge monster started to rise again after her hit. She was having a really hard time with this monster. Damn. The gods would surely capture her if she stayed here any longer, but she really had to defeat this monster. It would terrorize and kill innocent people until someone stopped it. And that someone was her.
Luther's mission was to capture a woman named Fiora. Apparently she had rebelled against them. She would kill their armies, and spread word of their plans. They preferably wanted her alive, but her dead was okay too. He would do just that. According to the gods, she was fighting a monster right now, but the monster not their loyal minion though. It was a wild monster. He peeked out of the bushes to observe their fighting.
This monster would not go down, which was continuously irritating. Obviously, Fiora was better, but the monster just kept on healing itself. It probably had a skill which invalidated all her epidemics. Great. Just what she needed.
Luther peeked out the bushes and saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. In slo-mo. She had white hair, and wore a gold and red cape. He couldn't see the rest, but her face was amazingly pretty for a human. Her frustrated face was also delightful to see. He froze. I'm not a sadist like Zelha, right? ... No, I'm not... He stood by, watching her, secretly.
GAHHHH! This was really frustrating. She would have to use her bravery burst. She lifted up her sword over her head, and yelled " Flames of Divine Destruction, come to me, and help me destroy this beast!" . With a flash, the monster was gone, but also was all the shrubbery. Luther's hiding place was revealed.
Luther "observed" her carefully. She was starting to raise her sword to the sky, and he could see the energy gather. Uh oh. Someone could really get hurt with that. I;m probably in a really bad place right now… He started to scramble away, but he was too late. Fiora had already launched the attack. She yelled, and everything turned into ashes. Including the bush. Oh man, she saw me…
Fiora turned around to the unknown presence. There, behind the ashes of a large bush, was a young, blushing, startled (handsome) man with orange hair, a dark eyepatch, and all black clothes with three flaming swords in the air around him. There was a moment of silence between. Fiora herself raised one eyebrow in a questionable expression.
Luther was frozen in place. This woman was extremely overwhelming. He didn't know why- he just felt his face and ears grow redder by the second. The woman named Fiora looked at him questionably, with one raised eyebrow. Even then, she was pretty… pretty scary! He could feel daggers from her eyes.
Fiora stared him down like a sheriff. The man didn't move, and she pointed her broadsword at him. " Who are you? State your name and status." she stated, narrowing her eyes. A Burny popped out and started to rub himself against Fiora's leg. It became really awkward.
Wow, this is awkward… Luther thought as he looked at the Burny rubbing himself against Fiora's leg. This is my chance to create a fake identity.. wait, why? I'm going to kill her anyways... he thought, and Fiora turned back to him.
The man in front of her cleared his throat and said, " My name is, umm, Luth..aah! Yeah, Lutha! I'm a travelling lone… warrior!". Fiora raised her eyebrow. She had never heard of a man with such a girly name.
Alright, I think I pulled it off! "Lutha" thought. he smiled an awkward smile, and Fiora seemed to grow pink on her face. She turned around and walked away. Luther completely forgot about his original objective, and facepalmed himself. He stalked her again, quiet like a mouse. He had to be careful. Sometimes Fiora's hand would slip, and a fire rune would land near his face. He was okay. Slightly.
