" Hey Rust, when is that convoy gonna come? Im getting hungry here man.", he asked.
" I don't know, Ecru is suppose to meet us here to let us know.", said Rust.
As they shifted around for a few minutes a group of soldier's with a small girl with red hair and blue eyes appeared on the path.
The two men quickly jumped out with their swords, the soldier's quickly readied their rifles but was quickly surrounded by eight other people all wearing black colored mask.
" Hand the child over now and i'll let you all live.", said a girl as she jumped down from a tree with a full helmet that looked like a Beowolf Skull.
The soldier's stood their ground," Don't flitch men, we must protect Miss Scarlet!".
The girl with the skull helmet shook her head," And here I am trying to be kind... Kill them all and leave the child to me!".
The masked members quickly engaged the soldier's, as all out choas broke out. The little girl managed to flee out of the mess and ran off into the woods.
Two members seen her run off and chased after her, they quickly cut down one of the soldiers trying to stop them then continued their chase.
" Quick, they are after Miss Scarlet!", one of the soldiers yelled as he spun around and fired.
A loud "BANG" rang out as a kid almost jumped out of his bed in a cold sweat. He looked around then cleared his throat and made his way to the bathroom after throwing on a pair of jeans.
He flipped the lights on to see his long black hair in the mirror, it was all messy so he grab a comb.
" Maybe I should get a hair cut today after work, I can also say hi to June when I stop by.", he said brushing his hair out of his eyes.
Reviling a cybernetic white eye with a cyan center, he looked at it in the mirror then look at his other eye which was a bright cyan color.
" Hmp. Guess the doc was right, the scar is all gone. I need to check in with him after work.".
" LANCE, Griffin is here to see you.", yelled his aunt from down stairs.
Lance quickly put his hair in a ponytail, threw on a white and black shirt, then grabbed his bag and keys before heading down stairs.
" Morning brother.", his buddy Griffin said leaning in the doorway with a bag in his hand.
Lance looked up to see his friend with short brown hair, lime green eyes, and his old orange school shirt with no sleeves and a black tie.
" You ready for the night shift after school this time Griff?", Lance joked as he threw on some brown boots.
" Not really, I might have to call in sick again. Gramps wants me at the shine today again for more training.", Griffin explained as he walked outside.
Lance followed him outside to see his old yellow motorcycle with scratches all over.
" You still haven't gotten the Glade off Gramps yet huh?", Lance asked walking over to the shed.
" No, not until I become a huntsmen he said. Hahahaha, so in a two year's about.", Griffin laught as he climbed onto his bike.
Lance opened the shed door and rolled out a white bike with a single tread instead of wheels and some armor plates. Griffin looked back while putting his helmet.
" The hell kinda bike is that, we arn't driving over a minefield.", Griffin said shaking his head.
" Says you, the last bike got crusted by a Razorback that YOU threw at it.", Lance said climbing onto the bike.
Griffin looked up then rubbed his head," Yeah... that was my bad.".
Lance shook his head and started up the bike, two vents on the side opened up as it roared awake.
Griffin started up his bike and rode off as Lance quickly followed.
Almost a hour into the drive, Griffin started slowing down to get next to Lance.
" Hey, do ya see that over there?", he asked over the helmet comms.
Lance looked over to see smoke trails," Probably just a few huntsmen training, we always leave a few when we train don't forget.".
" I guess, its not like...".
Before Griffin could finish a small girl jumped out in the path.
Griffin and Lance quickly locked up their brakes, Griffin layed his bike down on top of himself as Lance leaned the bike off the path and ran into a tree.
" Ow ow ow... That hurt like hell, you good brother.", Griffin yelled pushing the bike off him.
Griffin got up to see a tree had been knocked down as dust surrounded it, Griffin went to walk over when two guys jumped out and grabbed the girl.
" Hey, the hell do you think you are doing.", Griffin yelled as he watch the girl try to escape.
One of the guys looked back then pulled out his sword," This has nothing to do with you sinner, now scram before I have hurt you.".
Griffin looked closer at the man to see a moon with a star in the middle, he quickly held up his hands as a green light formed around his gloves," Try me false believer!".
The man looked closer then a angry grin came over his face when he seen the shrine's emblem on Griffin's Gloves.
" A sun with a shield, you're a believer of a weak god. NOW FALL TO THE STRONG!", the man yelled as he flew forward at Griffin.
Griffin quickly ducked as the blade went over his head, he then rolled out of the way as he seen Lance come charging out of the woods with white aura plates on his body.
" Try this for weak!", Lance yelled as he shoulder charged the guy.
The man went flying back but quickly recovered as he stabbed his sword into the ground.
" Grrrr, another one. Get the girl out of here Jet, we cant lose...".
Before he could finish a massive force of wind sent him flying into the woods as Griffin left a crater where he once stood.
The last guy turned and tired to run but a stream of cherry blossom cut him off as Lance appeared from it and kicked him in the chest.
He was send back into Griffin who quickly grabbed the girl and jumped out of the way as Lance flew forward again in a another stream of cherry blossoms, but stopped half way and switched over too the white aura plates.
The kid tried to block Lance with his sword but Lance shattered the blade over his shoulder then ran the kid into the ground.
He tired to stand but just fell to the ground and was out cold, Lance got up as the plates faded away.
Griffin walked over to him with the girl in his arms, she had buried her face in his chest before peeked out to see Lance's smile.
" It's ok now little one, those bad men won't hurt you anymore.", Lance said patting her head.
As he was checking on the girl, Griffin cleared his throat.
Lance looked up then back to see a group soldier's aimed at them," Oh crud.".
" Let the girl go now!", the Sargent yelled aiming at them with a pistol.
Griffin sat the girl down as she bolted off to the soldier's, but she stopped and yanked on the Sargent's pants.
He leaned down as she said somthing in his ear.
" Hmm, I see. Take these two in, make sure to grab their bikes also.", The Sargent said as he walked off with the girl.
" Welp, who we gonna call first Griff. Your Grandpa or my Aunt?", Lance asked.
" How about we just have them shoot us instead.", Griffin said as he looked at Lance with a smerk.
Lance grinned back before getting shoved by a soldier.
