OK, RandomAuthor7 here with a new chapter, and no Someone the chapters will not be longer, it's my style, but this one will be longer by some odd reason. Oh before I forget, I will look closer for mistakes. Thanks for the heads up Kitala. Here we go!

D rode slowly through a forest. He admired the green beauty. The music of the birds filled his ears. He smiled, for the human in him was showing it's self. He felt happy, for the first time he felt happiness. He stopped his horse and all the happiness left him. Something was in front of him.

He left his horse and walked stealthfully through the undergrowth, approaching the noise. He saw a little boy of 9 or 10 crying to himself. The boy turned around and looked long at D. D felt very uneasy under the boy's stare.

"Wh-who are you?" the boy asked.

"My name is D," the hunter answered, "What are you doing here alone boy? It is very dangerous."

The boy stared to cry again, but this time loudly. D tried to calm him down, but he had little to no success. He just let the boy cry and cry. Finally the boy stopped. D did not show it but he was very irritated.

"A vampire killed our parents," another voice said. An older boy of 15 or 16 walked out of the brush carrying wood. He walked to a circle of rocks and put the wood beside it.

"My mother told me to take little Gean here and run, so I did." He said, "After we left the house we heard a scream."

"I am very sorry for your loss, I.." D started, but was cut off.

"You're that dunpeal, that vampire hunter, right?" the older boy asked.

"Yes."

"So are you after that vampire?"

"Most likely, yes."

"Then, then can we join you? I can fight and Gean here can take care of your horse!" The older boy exclaimed.

"First off, how do you know about my horse?" D asked.

"Well you see I figured that a hunter of your caliber would have a great horse, and well.."

"Don't flatter me. I will not let you join me, you are just kids." D said.

"But, I thought that..oh never mind." the older boy said.

"Meany! I don't like you!" the younger boy said. He walked up to D and kicked him. There was pure fear in the older boy's face. D bent down and looked and Gean.

"What is your brothers name?" D asked.

"Tragar." He said quietly.

"Tragar, you may join me," Tragar's face lighted up, "But, you must keep up on foot unless you buy a horse, I will not buy one for you, Gean can ride with me as long as he doesn't bother me. And you must fight, here."

D opened a saddle pack and took out two long daggers and scabbards. He threw them to Tragar. Tragar helped Gean on D's horse and they set off.

"What?" said all of the Karari Sisterhood at once.

"I said I want to join you." Tirla said.

The three women started laughing. One even knocked over her drink. They started to talk among themselves. After about 5 minutes they turned to Tirla.

"You can join us," the closest to her said, "Only if you learn extra fast, don't complain, and never help other hunters. We are very tough and feared, so must you."

Tirla nodded. The Sisterhood got up and were leaving the bar when one turned around and looked at Tirla.

"Coming?" one of them said

"Of course."

****

D rode slowly so Tragar could keep up. Gean had been talking the entire time.

"And then this one time I climbed up this one tree and I fell but I meant to fall because there was a leaf pi."

"Shut up!" a voice yelled. Gean stopped talking at once. Tragar looked around hands ready to draw his daggers. Seeing no one he looked up at D.

"What was that?" he asked.

"A parasite, in my left hand." D replied

"The first time you admitted you have me dunpeal. You fool, letting these two on the trip." The left hand said.

D stopped his horse and got off. He put his left hand to the ground.

"Let's see, 11 hours ago, we need to move faster." Lefthand stated.

Tragar looked in amazement at the hunter. He let the parasite make fun of him, and then help him. The hunter had amazing control over his emotions.

"11 hours? I need a horse." Tragar said.

"Yes you do." D agreed.

"Where is the nearest town?" Tragar asked.

"About 20 minutes north." The hand said, "Luckily for you, it's the way we're going."

"Well, no use standing here," D said, "Let's go."

With that, they set off.
