Chapter 2

"You know, we should quick killing so many people that the king sends at us." Replied Hilde while they were walking near, the forest the next day for they couldn't stay where they had killed the men the other night. "We had to get rid of them or they would have killed us just as quick, but I think they would have done something else before they killed us" replied Sally

"That is very true since they were soldiers and we don't know how there minds work, do we?" asked Dorothy " Anyway we should make are way to the castle in the mountains of emerald." Answered Nion

"Why are they even trying to drive us out anyway they have killed almost every mythical race known to man and then some." Asked Relena " True that we are the only ones of our kind but we have all have had the experience of losing our families but that was due to our ancestry. Thus we are the imperials and no one can kill us for we in most ways are immortal, to man and mythical creature." Answered Dorothy "Well said Dorothy, "but we still have our weaknesses too. None the less we need to get the oracles so that we can end this stupid battle between magical beings and humans." Answer Sally " I see," replied Hilde who only asked about the topic because she couldn't stand silence that they were all in when making their journey towards the Magicaka their home. "When we get back to Magicaka we have to inform the Queen about the hunters and that we couldn't find the oracles." Answer Sally they continue to walk a little more until they meet up with some of their horses that were always stay at this certain spot of the forest. It was safer to leave them there, than to take them back with them on their missions. When they confronted the horses they went to their respected ones that belong to them, the girls always took great care of them since they were gifts from the Queen.

" Hello, Shigani." Asked Hilde to one pure black stallion horse that replied with a snort.

"Well that's no way to treat a friend, replied the gleeful elf as she mounted her steed.

"Hello, Yue." Asked Dorothy to a dapple-gray stallion that was quite unlike the others that were full life and glee, this one was quiet and mysterious. She chose this one because of those reasons and also because it was faster than the rest. She mounted quickly before anyone else seeing that she wanted to get out of a land that had no business with her life except that they wanted her life and her magic to be gone with.

"Hey, Hope." Asked Nion who now mounted her black horse that had a white diamond star on its forehead.

"Come on, Angel." Asked Relena to a pure white stallion that she now mounted on that somehow wouldn't budge from her spot.

" Hello, Widow" admired Sally at her black horse it was pure black with a hint silver on its back. She mounted with ease

Catherine was glad to see her brown stallion named Maple. She mounted the horse silently because the silence was very unusually here. " Guys have you notice that it is very unusually quiet unlike the usual chatter don't you think?" asked Catherine who was very uneasy for the entire journey.

Everyone was silent until they heard the sounds of arrows coming at them. " SEPARATE AND GO TO THE RIVER OF TRUTH NOW!!" yelled Nion who mounted her horse and left the group with her steed and heading in the direction of the river. She raced through the woods and trunks of trees and roots that were coming above the ground. Why am I running? She looked behind her shoulder and notice that her follower was a hunter but he wasn't dressed as one, yes the colors and the clothing look like a hunter but not quite right. Wasn't I appointed the leader, why am I running she asked herself because I can't stand being the one to kill so many immortals, Why did I survive the sacrifice, why did I survive why can't I just die now when I still can, No, I can't not now, I still have to finish my mission she continued to race her steed throughout the forest until she notice that her follower was no where behind her. She stopped her steed and look around her surroundings to see if her hunter follow her. It looked like he didn't and got tired of chasing her. She turned around to see if he was there when arrow shot by her ear and then another went by her arm. This made her fall off her steed she than quickly got up but not before seeing that before her pointed arrow. "Oh, dear." She said aloud she notice that the hunter didn't show his face for he had a hood covering his face. I wonder why I was so easily capture by this hunter why him and why now but didn't I want to die. Never, he, nor any mortal won't easily defeat me not now nor ever. " What do you want, stranger?" she asked the hooded stranger who was standing with his arrow and bow ready to fire at any slight movement.

"Your blood." He answered in a very cold and sinister voice that made her feel very cold but it was autumn it could have been the wind…no it couldn't…it was him and why would he hide his face away from her. Soon she felt his eyes traveling her body and with this she felt very angry being looked like a piece of meat being ready to sell to a customer. She decipher a plan as quickly as possible but something about this hunter made her fell intimidated and this was not a time to be in when any second he could have killed her but every chance he had to kill her he wasn't taking and it was annoying her very much waiting for her death.

"What are you waiting for we have been standing here for a few minutes and you still haven't killed me...who are you kind stranger?" she ask trying to see if she could catch him off guard and try to escape with Hope her steed was trotting very quietly behind him which would frighten the poor hunter but she would allow this man to go since he was able to defeat her but that was once of those one to a million things.

"Why did you call me kind?" He asked again his monotone, it was then that she noticed that his voice had a hint of sadness but she didn't know why.

"Because you haven't killed me yet and you are a hunter…am I right?" she asked again she was now entrance by this character who show up out of nowhere and didn't even thought about killing her more and less ask her about why she called him kind because of that reason.

"Nothing." he managed to chuckle to himself as he unstrung his arrow away from her face.

"Please leave before I change my decision to kill you." He said again in his voice he bent his head down. She noticed that a few blonde strands escape his hood and notice how beautiful they were but though better if she left for she would have been dead if he didn't have second thoughts about her and for that she was very thankful for.

"Hope!" she shouted in Elf before hope came rushing by her she jump on and continue her journey to Truth River where she knew she would be safe from him and any hunter that was awaiting his orders to kill her.

Why did I let her go and she was right that I had many chances to kill her but I didn't even bother to even let go of my arrow so that it would killed her, but she was beautiful that I couldn't killed her and why did I even let her go…it would never work after all we're enemies for a reason but if she wasn't beautiful then maybe I could kill her. It is very stupid now to go after her now all well better get on to the camp before I am missed.

Dorothy left and headed toward the plain since she could use her magic in that area. When she left the group she prayed to herself that her vision she had the night before was not coming true because she didn't want to meet the hunter not now because she had killed enough the night before to last her a life time, but didn't she enjoy the killings of others and blood. This thought had been pondering in her head and she didn't now what to make of the visions and thus it was confusing her. She was now dreading her dreams for they held the truths and the dreams was so vivid that they were almost the real thing and no one didn't understand why they were coming true and she was the one that loved the killed of mankind and had no emotion or mercy for those that died at her hands. Inside she was glad that they died because they had killed her family she never knew. She was angry at mankind for that and would killed thousands before she would accept death for herself but why at the same time she was afraid of killing more. This is not the time to be confuse there are more hunters that are after you and they don't care what happens to you, so be prepare to kill them. She told herself in her mind. She continue to gallop until she heard another pair of hooves unlike her own they were able to keep up with Yue and her which was astonishing since they were the fastest in the land and she was not going to accept death or be defeat that easily especially to a mere mortal. She encouraged Yue to go faster the steed continue to race until they saw the large river near view. She didn't know she had travel that far with her opponent. "Yes, I am almost near the river." She yelled to Yue. But what about my hunter he is only one maybe I can eliminate him when I get a little nearer to the river. After going for a few strides she turn her steed to face the hunter who wanted her dead for it was his mission. When she moved her steed to see him she notice that he wasn't dressed as a hunter but the clothing colors were the same only a little different. She noticed his steed was gray and had patches of silver showing. He was dressed like a hunter but he hided his face behind a hood of his cloak. " How did you do that?" she questioned the mask opponent who seemed to be staring at her, but she couldn't tell. "Do what?" he asked "How was your steed able to beat mine." She continued as she got off her steed and began to stroke the mare softly to allow the mare to rest. "Are you after my blood hunter?" she asked again at the stranger "Why do you ask, I though you weren't afraid of death" he replied in a clear voice. "Have we met?" she ask the stranger for his voice was starting sound all to familiar from some where but she wasn't positive as to where or from. "No we haven't for I haven't been this far from the palace." He answered for her. "Where are you going, only the imperials are able to go to that side of the river." He asked her, she then noticed that he didn't know who she was. "I see, so you are right but I think I will take my chances, I wish not kill you just yet my mysterious hunter." After she said that she jump on Yue and took off toward the river. "I really didn't want to kill you just yet not until I see you again and know why I am living this life!" he shouted to her before he kick his steed and race back toward the meeting place where he and the rest of the hunters decided to set up camp. Why was she the exact same person from my dream, can it be that we are going to see each other again. He asked himself while racing back toward the camp his blonde bangs kept getting in his eyes. Those piercing eyes are the same. Can it be that she really is one of the Imperials, Quatre continue to replay what had just happen and trying to figure out what was happening and if she was really a danger to his people. I might as well give up on this beauty I know I can never have her so why fret over her. Maybe because you are attracted to her, but there are more beautiful ladies who swoon over me why do I want this one…because her heart is purer than yours and also you are attracted to her personality? No use in chasing after dreams might as well see what the others are up to. Quatre continue to ride even faster than before and wasn't even heading toward the camp but was wandering out of thinking again which wouldn't be a first.

Hilde took off into through woods, which would be her strongest point if she had to defend herself. She continue to raced on ahead without looking behind since she knew that her opponent would not be easy to gotten rid of because he a dogged all of her arrows that she shot at him and they were sure shots to the body. There was no possible way that he was actually stronger than her because she was an Imperial and no one has yet to defeat her much less be able to match her skills with another. They all exceeded everyone, well that what she thought until she met up with this hunter. She then heard hooves, why now…now I wish I had Yue now she is the fastest horse that we have that can, before she could finish her sentence she was tackle by her Hunter from the side.

"Damn! I didn't even see him," She told herself as she was trying to wrestle her way out of his grasp. She notices that he had a hood on. I wonder she thought as her hand went for the hood she notice that the hooded figure was a boy with a braid and bangs that hided his eyes. He recoiled away from her and brought his hood back over his face.

"Why did you do that, lady?" He asked her in a voice that made even the most cruelest of people shiver in their skins.

"Because you wouldn't get off me, how was I suppose to defend myself kill you." She shouted at him, she notice that it was starting to rain…crappit I went to far into the forest at this rate it will take me two days to get back to the river and where is Shingani he wasn't that dumb for a horse.

"Will you quite yelling at me, I'm not deaf." He replied a little cheerful but it sounded amused than cheerful but much to the same extent it sounded the same.

"Looks like I'm stuck with you." She replied in elf and notice how confused he was, he shifted his weight incommutably in an effort to show he was ready for a siege on him.

"It wasn't a signal, I just forgot that you were a human and that you don't speak my language." She answered forcefully and quickly as to not confuse him more so that he would confuse him so that he would kill her.

"So you do speak English" He asked again amused at her, she then felt as if he was watching her as she was trying to find where her horse was since Shigani was always scare so he wasn't never far from her.

"Now where did Shingani go again?" she asked herself as she searched the forest closer to see if there was any signs of him being there or near there.

"If you are trying to find your horse then I suggest you come with me because more and likely he would have went to my camp where there is food.

"Uumm…no, I think I would know where my horse would've went if he and I should part." She told him, he was still hooded and still showed a cheery character but he was hidden behind that cloak if only I could see his face then I would know who he really is.

"I know Shigani and he will come back for me, so I will walk the rest of my way if you don't mind and also you wouldn't mind not telling anyone of this incident because I am a Imperial and it would give me a very bad reputation, ok…ok, I will see you around. And good day to you sir and May your journey be safe." And with that said she walk off into the other direction as quickly as possible.

"Wait!" he shouted after her. She only stop for a brief moment as he was trying to keep up with her since she did have a early start than he did but didn't he try to kill me a moment ago but I am trying to kill him but I don't have a urge to kill him he acts a like a child not a hunter. She then notices that he was having trouble breathing.

"Are you ok, sir?" She asked him as she notice that he was breathing very strangely even for a human he was breathing very irregular.

"I'm fine, this has been with me since birth, there is no cure." Replied the boy as he tried to get posture back which seem worthless since elves knew more about the body in all species than any other creature could and they are able to tell who tell the truth to those who lie and she notice very well that he was only lying because of a reason she couldn't quite place.

"I think I will be able to find a cure, what is it that you have a problem with anyway?" she asked the stranger again.

"I have trouble breathing and I won't let a doctor near me to bleed me because I think that is all none sense to bleed a person to get rid of the disease." He told her as they came near what appeared to be a camp.

"I think I have just the thing, well actually two but they should be most helpful to you and I won't poison you because you spared my life the least I can do is help you with your breathing." She replied

"I think you should take one cup of this in the morning it is ginseng with honey a type of tea that allows the throat to work when sore and take these herbs." She handed Duo two small bags that were filled with these items. They smell like the items and nothing seem amiss when he took a weft of the sweet smelling herbs.

"Here let me prepare one for you, ok?" she asked him as she placed him near the logs that were surrounding the fire that was very dim with light. He fell asleep as soon as he touched the ground.

"I guess you won't be having your tea then." She told him all ready knowing that he had fallen asleep. Why is it that humans can look so angelic when they are asleep but when they are awake they are full of evil and nothing good, except him, I mean what am I thinking I need to get out of here before I get caught. She quickly put a blanket on Duo before getting up and leaving.
