Chapter 1 - the school trip
Ryu: ...
Teacher: and remember! We are going to be together with another class from another school, and they come from a more respected school. And.. RYU WAKE UP!
Ryu: ...huh..? I wasn't sleeping... damit, why do we have to come? What if I say I can't act nice... is that going to let me stay?
Teacher: geez, you are hopeless... but you all need to come with us! We are going to stay there a for four weeks, and it would be stupid to get negative already! And it is also a part of the school! It is not just some stupid trip without a purpose!
the school bell starts to ring
Teacher: hmm well you can go now, be here tomorrow at 9am. And make sure to have the basic equipment for a trip like this with you.
-On another school-
the bell starts to ring
Teacher: I hope you all remember to be here. Oh, hey will you wait a moment Ayane?
Ayane: sure... what is it?
Teacher: do you know where Shina is?
Ayane: Shina? Hmm... no I don't. I really don't know why she didn't came today.
Teacher: can you tell her that she has to meet tomorrow at 9pm?
Ayane: sure...
later that day
Ayane: umm is Shina home?
Shina's mom: she is. She is in the backyard. She is practising with her bow. So it would be wise not to go there. She might be good, but if you suddenly stumble in there you might get hurt. Why don't you come in and wait until she comes back?
Ayane: I can't. I need to pack my things for the trip. I actually just came to tell her that we should meet tomorrow at the school at 9am.
Shina's mom: that's fine. Then I will just tell her that when she comes back.
3 hours later
Shina's mom: oh there you are! One of your classmates was here to tell you that you needed to meet tomorrow at school at 9am.
Shina: 9am? Hmm okay, sigh, I hope it isn't all studying on that trip...
Shina's mom: you aren't going to take that bow with you are you?
Shina: it is in a forest. I might get a chance to improve my skills on moving targets.
Shina's mom: okay, but don't do anything stupid okay!
Shina: sure, why would I do such a thing? Its not like I am going to shot down any of the others there.
Shina's mom: hmm, okay. Never mind all that. Lets get something to eat. Then you have to prepare for tomorrow!
the following day, when everyone was at the camp
Teacher: Okay, we are 40 here, and there are 10 houses, which mean there will be 4 in each house. To balance things a bit, you need to go 2 from one school, and 2 from the other school.
Ryu: (I guess I just wait here until no one else is left, or until someone asks me. Everything else would be too troublesome...)
Ryu leans against a nearby tree. Suddenly someone stands in front of him.
Shina: it seems like we are the last, so lets just find a free house and get our things unpacked shall we?
The two others was boys, and doesn't looked like they liked the fact that they had to be together with a girl, and they both seemed to hate the fact that they had to share a house with someone besides themselves.
Ryu: hmph... I don't have anything with me, so why don't you choose a house and then show it to me later?
Shina: (hihi... what a strange guy. He doesn't seem like he likes this trip either.) well it seems like we are one good group... neither of us likes this trip, and what's worse is, that we have to work as a group for the rest of the month. So why don't we all go find a house, and get the best out of this trip?
Ryu: I prefer not... but as long as you don't ask me to carry your equipment, I guess it will work.
Shina: hmm, you say I look like one who needs help all the time?
Ryu: actually not. Nevertheless, I was mostly referring to the two behind you...
The two other boys both let out an angry grunt, before turning around, and going towards the only free house left.
The following day.
Shina: isn't this fun...
Ryu: ...
All the groups has been sent on a "mission" which was to gather different kind of food, like mushrooms and then decide which of the things you could eat, and get rid of those you couldn't, after you returned to the camp. In short, it was a test to see, which groups that was able to gather food, and a test to see which of the groups who was able to group the things they found in eatable, and non-eatable.
Shina's group had found a bigger bag of food, and it was all eatable. Shina had some talent on such things, and the group got the best results. And their "reward" was that they only had to gather half the food ration as the others. The trip's weeks was divided into different themes. The first one was survival.
Ryu: I can't believe we actually won that test...
Shina: its actually sad we won... I wouldn't had minded gathering food. This forest is full of moving targets. See that thing there? Now it moves. Now it... AHH!
Ryu: what the...
Shina's target had turned out to be some moderate sized creature, and it looked most of all as some kind of super sized reptile.
Ryu: WATCH OUT!
The creature had charged towards Shina and had unsheathed its claws. Ryu threw himself in front of Shina and grabbed one of her arrows, then turned around and pulled both of them down, while he buried the arrow in the creature's neck. It fell to the ground. Dead.
Shina: what the...
Ryu: hell was that...
Ryu and Shina both looking at the strange creature that had attacked them: ...
They looked around to see if they could find the other two, but apparently, there was no sight of them.
Shina: did they run?
Ryu: I don't know, but whether they did or not we need to get out of here!
Shina: wait! We need to get back to the camp! What if one of these things attacked them!
Ryu suddenly froze. It seemed like his world was falling apart. His worst thoughts of this trip was about to come true
Ryu: ...then they are dead...
Shina: wha... what?... all of them..?
Ryu couldn't believe what he was saying. But he knew he was right. It was lucky that they were able to fend it off. But what about the others? Even though there is more than 40 people at the camp, those predators will kill them if they find them.
Ryu: We need to go back and warn them.
They ran back and when they got there, the camp was on fire.
Shina: no... it can't be true... this can't be happening...
Ryu: oh no...
Was all that Ryu could say as another 4 of whatever had attacked them earlier, came rushing towards them.
Shina: NO WAY!
Shina grab her bow and shot an arrow through the one who was currently attacking them. The thing fell to the ground, lifelessly.
The other 3 attacked, before Shina could fire more arrows.
Ryu: RUN SHINA! RUN!
Ryu stepped up with a dagger and threw it at the closest one, making it fall slightly, stopping the others in they attack. Ryu turned around and started running too. He suddenly felt something bury itself in his back and he heard Shina scream.
He fell to the ground, unable to get up again. He saw to his terror that one of the other 2 remaining fiends was about to grab one of Shinas leg while she was trying to get away.
Shina: HELP!
Suddenly a powerful light blinded Ryu. Ryu tried to regain his ability to see. He wanted to know what had happened. He suddenly felt the pressure on his back lessen, and he then lost consciousness.
: Ryu..?
Ryu tried to get up but found himself unable to. His back was aching. He then remembered what had happened.
Ryu: what happened?
Ryu finally got his eyes opened and saw that it was Shina who was sitting in front of him. No one else.
Ryu could see tears leak from Shina's eyes.
Shina: I... I... I don't know... suddenly... all the fiends were just... gone...
Ryu sat up. He looked around, trying to find a clue what had happened. There was one problem though. They weren't in the camp anymore.
Ryu: where are we?
Shina: I don't know... I fainted after I saw some light. I... I... I don't know what happened.
Ryu looked at her again. She was crying now. It was hard to believe, that the girl he had seen earlier fighting against some big predators who had killed the whole camp, sitting there, crying.
Ryu then saw she had a letter in her hand. Apparently, something she had found before they were attacked, because it was addressed to the camp. It was labelled "to Shina Generine"
Ryu: something's wrong?
Shina handed him the letter. Her hand was shaking.
Ryu read the letter:
Dear Shina.
I am sorry to inform you, that earlier this day, an incident happened to your parents. From the look of it, they had been out shopping, and when they arrived at home, they were ambushed by someone, and stabbed several times. I got word from your school that you were on a trip, and I think it would be best if you stayed there, until the rest of you were going home. In the mean time, you should try to find someone who can take care of you, until school is over.
It must be hard to hear. But I am sorry to inform you, that it wasn't only your parents that was killed. But your whole family. It would seem like you was one of the targets too, so you can thank the school trip that you are still alive.
We are still trying to figure out why your family had been targeted, and by who. So far, however, we have no clues at all.
-Police Officer Kent.
Ryu looked at the letter, and suddenly understood why she cried. To see a 40 people being killed by some kind of fiend, and afterwards find out that her whole family, including herself, had been targeted by some unknown people.
Ryu was unable to speak. How could you comfort someone, who just had experienced death from the best seats?
Ryu: I am sorry...
Ryu finally got out.
Shina still looked at the ground.
Ryu: you can say I lost my family too... they never care about me. They wouldn't have minded if I had been killed here. To be honest, I think it would please them.
Shina stood up and dried her eyes.
Shina: I... I think its best if we try to find someone who can help us...
Ryu looked at her. He tried to hide that he was amazed. It proved hard though. Because he was quite sure that most people with a normal family would be broken to hear that their whole family had been killed. Including himself. Sure he didn't had a normal family, but that wasn't quite the point.
Ryu: ...are you sure? Where should we be heading? To the nearest town?
Shina kept her mouth closed. She knew what he was thinking. She knew what he was trying to say. He was saying, that because someone had targeted her, it would be unwise to walk strait into the nearest town.
Ryu: ...unbelievable... this is the second day...
They both kept silent for a while, then Ryu finally got to a conclusion.
Ryu: we need to go to the town. If anything happens there, we have to deal with it. We can't stay out here. Besides, we are both wounded. We need the wounds treated, or we aren't going to last long.
Shina: ...okay...
Shina started to cry again. Ryu could fell she was confused.
Shina: I... I...
Ryu: don't worry. I wont leave you if anything happens
Ryu didn't knew why, but he somehow knew that was why she was confused. Someone had killed her family. And they wanted her dead. If they could kill them all in less than a day, it must have been organized well. He could just as well had been there with the only purpose to kill her.
Shina: you... you... thank you...
Ryu: hey... if I wanted to kill you, I would have left you back there. I couldn't had had a better chance. And I couldn't even have been accused for it, because it wasn't me.
Shina didn't say anything. She knew he was right. She just found everything hard to believe.
Ryu: let's go. We don't know what those things were, and there is no guarantee that there wont come more.
Shina dried her eyes and stood up.
Shina: you're right. Let's go.
