Gah! SO sorry for not updating, but I'm having a busy week. I have only enough time to update this story, but it's going to be a short chapter. I'll extend the chapters once I find more time, but until then, please read and enjoy!

Reviewer Thanks

Elizabeth: You're a little off on Silver's 'friend'. And yes, Blu's family IS a little messed up, lol. And yeah, I love to put interesting things into my stories, that way my readers don't get bored. And hooray for pranks! XD And the mayor has his reasons… And it's hard to notice lizards climbing into your backpack when you find out you're on the mayor's hit-list.

PolarPurple: That name 'Bob' still cracks me up to this day, lol. …What a random chuckle you have o.o …And don't worry, the other two will regain consciousness eventually. And don't worry about Silver- he always finds a way out of trouble ;) And thank yous ^-^

Anthony's POV

I sat in the cottage, widdling a piece of wood with one of my claws, waiting for my plan to take action.

It was so damn simple. Trouble is brewing in Fairytale Land just as Silver and those kids he's so fond of arrive, and people get suspicious of the outsiders. All it needed was a familiar face to warn the people about a bunch of delinquents using witchcraft and summoning creatures to attack the town.

I was popular in Fairytale Land, so it was a piece of cake. It's not every day that a famous monster hunter pins the blame on his old enemies- especially after they got the Pent Towers search-team on my tail.

I wanted to handle them four years ago while I was in Jacque's castle, but after seeing that werewolf was loose and had a vampire and ghost on his side, I wasn't going to take any chances and decided to elude them and track them down one-by-one later.

One walk through the woods later, I noticed that 'curse' Silver was under was real, and he changed human, along with that Izzy-girl and some cat. I never saw the ghost-girl again, though. And since I vowed to myself that I would never harm a human-being, I was screwed, so I went on with my hunts for other monsters, all the while trying to avoid that she-kretin of a warden.

I must remind myself to get my hunting-license renewed.

I had lied awake for several nights weeks later, being haunted by nightmares of how I let that werewolf and his comrades get away, especially since those wretched boys (and that blonde-haired girl) caused a riot at my prison, having several of my kin slaughtered, wounded, scalped, put in a coma, or thrown into therapy. …One reason why I didn't bring them along with me this time.

So, imagine my joy when Anchantor came along and gave me a job-offer. Imagine my pleasure when he told me about Silver becoming a werewolf once again. Imagine my ecstatic expression when he told me he wanted me to capture three boys as well (let alone my confusion when I found out that blonde-haired kid was actually a boy). Then imagine my satisfaction when I tracked them to Fairytale Land- the one place they weren't familiar with, didn't know anyone, and where framing them for everyone's troubles would be easy.

I looked over at the woman asleep on the couch. That slumber-potion I used on her will leave her in a coma for quite a while, unless someone who has never been kissed smooches her on the lips. …But, what are the chances of THAT happening?

I looked at the clock, seeing it was getting close to afternoon. Once midnight strikes, I'll continue my hunt for that werewolf and those meddlesome kids- wait, why does that term sound familiar?

Someone Else's POV

I was never the strongest kid in school, or the best-looking, or the most athletic, or even the most liked. But, I still had my wits, my common sense, and my patience- despite it caused girls to tell me to take a hike.

I was rich too, richer than anyone could see. I lived in a beautiful castle with my loving family.

Troubles came when my father died, and my mother, brother and I fell into despair. One day, though, my mother re-married, and my brother and I were the oldest heirs.

My step-father passed away, leaving us with his three daughters. Two of them had already moved out, and my mother wanted the last one sent to the slaughter.

Vanity lead her to her death, and my brother and I both mourned. Rage, greed, and madness filled my brother's soul, and he promised to make sure our last step-sister would regret being born.

Anger clouded his mind, and he went after the wrong girl. Shot her and her husband, blew up the castle, and destroyed a young prince's world.

Like our mother, his hunt lead him to his death. Last I heard he was found dead, and I wish he didn't get into such a mess.

I didn't want to be like him or our mother, not at all. But deep inside, I wanted to see our stepsister and step-nephew fall.

Setting a bounty and hiring a hunter, I plan to take down my new foes.

For no one messes with the family of Steve Custoe.
