Will closes his eyes and reopening them. The train's power is cut off and now they're in the dark. He heard other passengers gasped and murmuring. The only source of lights is the outside which is the street lamps. However, the street lamps begin to flicker and start to shut down as well. Now the only remaining source of light is the moonlight.
"You got to be fucking kidding me." Will just heard Nero cursed. He looks over to him only to see, there is a slight blue glow. Huh? A glow from what it seems a cast. The sling.
"Nero-what-"
"Move!" Will immediately got off his seat as the other teen urged him to get up and move. He got out of the way and watch Nero exiting the car. Something is wrong. Without thinking, the redhead follows him out. Leaving the car full of panicking passengers, he exits the car and got a glimpse of Nero's coattails. Did he just get off from the train? The teen opens the door which led to the outside that is between the two cars. Of course, he jumps off as well.
What is with that arm? Is it-
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The sound of gunshots immediately halts Will's advances as he heard the screams from the passenger cars. The redhead winced then powers through it, walking to the source. He hears the sound of laughter and hissing. What are those sounds?
"I hope you guys enjoy the ride because I'm sending you all to hell!" Nero shouted before firing his trusted revolver, Blue Rose at the horde. A couple of scarecrows and cloaked figures carrying the scythes.
Are those-
"Will." The redhead looks up from his reading and looks at his uncle. Uncle Lucas. "Yes, uncle?"
"Outside." His uncle begins to speak. Uncle Lucas has who would look that is easily passable as someone who is in their early 30's for someone who lived over for 100 years. " Is different from what you know here at inside this very mountain and in Highland City."
"I know that."
"Yes but I do not think you know there are also other creatures that are like us but aren't like us."
Will tilted his head at him in question. "What do you mean?"
"What I am trying to say is even though we are former demons. The demons outside are vicious, bloodthirsty and demented. William. " He says his full name, "You must be aware of these things. If forced under any circumstances, you must fight. Do you understand? I want you to put your survival as your most important if you go through with this. Even your sister would want you to do this."
Sir Will! The redhead widens his green eyes at the female voice in his head as he rolls over and evading a demon's bladed leg. That was close. If it weren't for Rippa, I would be…the boy bit his lip. He couldn't imagine what happened if he didn't. The demon with the bladed leg keeps on cackling, approaching the young wizard. Uncle. Now, I understand now what you mean.
From his blue jacket, he draws out a sword. It looks like an ordinary sword, however, this sword is a magical weapon called Alchos. One of the Naturian weapons that can channel one magic. It can be channeled for anything of any one's infinity. For Will, his infinity is wind.
He aims his sword at the demon and fires a blow of gust. The demon shrieks as it got blown away and hits somewhere in trees.
The fuck?! Nero turns his head as he felt the strong breeze and widen his eyes to see the redhead. Why is he here?! Did he just follow him out?!
"HEY!"
"?!" Will jumped at the sound of Nero yelling at him. He turns to face him, and starts to talk, "I-I'm " The redhead goes to explain until Nero aims the gun at him. "Wait, wait, wait! I'm trying to help you!" Gunshots are fired then Will cracks one eye and hears the hissing, he turns around to see three demons on the ground. Oh.
"Get your ass back on the train!" Nero shouted at him.
"But!"
"I can handle it!" Nero retorted, doesn't want to hear it. Will blinked at Nero. He seems experienced at this but still, he can't leave him alone getting surrounded. As Nero is trying to fight the demons on the ground, the wizard noticed there are two other demons on top of the car, ready to pounce on him!
Will fires another gust of wind, sending the two demons flying. Nero widens his eyes and holds down his ground, gripping at the ground with his Devil Bringer. Because it was not only two but the whole group got swept up into the gust, sending them away. Nero snaps his head at the redhead and growls. "Hey! You almost hit me!"
"Sorry!" Will yelled.
What part of go back inside the train did he not understand?! Nero growls as he dusted himself until he hears some statics of electricity, he looks at the lamps as they flickered and the lightbulbs have shattered. Just his fucking luck. The demon emerges from the static and what did you know. It's a fucking Blitz. Great, another pain in the ass. Nero goes to shoot at it before grabbing it with Devil Bringer. However, the demon evades as it burst into lighting and appears right back on the ground. It attacks Nero.
Shit. He brings out his sword, Red Queen and revvs it up. He goes to deliver a downward slash but the damn demon teleports again! Nero yelled in pain as he felt a slash across his back from the Blitz.
Will stares at horror then looks to more demons approached. This is bad. This demon…can teleport by electricity. What happens if…huh, he begins to notice something. The lighting demon collides with other demons. Huh? Can't it see? He looks over to Nero who seems to be backing up and tries to shoot. So Nero noticed too. However, nothing is hurting the demon. He observes that Blitz has sort of lighting shield. This proves a problem. But there are more problems ahead. The scarecrows attack the hunter so right now keeping him occupied. Will darts his eyes back to the Blitz who roared and teleports. Eh? So where he is now?!
He hears a zap as a shadow looms over him which the teen snaps his head around only to see it behind, ready to sink its claws into him. He cast a wind spell, blowing it away but it was much tougher so it only creates distance between them. The redhead staggers away. That was way too close. The Blitz roars at the teen.
God-fucking-damnit. Why didn't he go back?! Nero gritted his teeth before cutting two scarecrows in half.
The Blitz sniffs at the teen and it growled. Then it starts charging at him. Eh?! Oh no! Will aims his sword at him. He prepares himself as green static came visible.
There is another infinity that Will has but it rarely comes out and proves much difficult to control. The Blitz shields itself within electricity as it came close. This is exactly what the young wizard wanted as he fires. So what's his second infinity?
Lighting.
A green blast hits the Blitz but it didn't stop him as it swings an arm at Will and sending him flying, making him hit onto the train car. Will coughed as he slid down.
SHIT! Nero managed to finish his side and goes to aid the teen by being in front of him with his Red Queen in front of him. Nero narrows his blue eyes as the Blitz starts to roar and then growls. Nero is ready to kill this lighting bug and- huh? What's going on?
The elite demon screeches to the air as there is green statics of electricity, stopping its movements. What the?
"Stun blast."
Nero looks over to the redhead in question. Will looks up to Nero and explains, "It's a blast that can render anyone immobile so I thought this is a good way to combat his element." Will explain. "For now, he won't be moving for a while." Nero widens his eyes in amazement and turns back at the poor paralyzed demon, he grinned. That's something he hasn't heard all day! With that, Nero easily defeats the demon as he cuts him down in half. Will closes its eyes as he heard the demon gave a strangled cry before it dies. He felt bad even if the demon did attack him.
Once that is over, Nero looks over to the redhead and approaches, "Can you move?"
"Huh? U-uh…yeah. " Will rolls his shoulders and picks up his sword, slowly standing up. He looks up to Nero whom narrows his eyes at him, having him under a scrutinized gaze. The boy became uncomfortable. "What?"
"Mind telling me what you are?"
"Huh?"
"Well? Are you a demon or what?" Nero asked with his sword over his shoulder.
"Uhh…." Nero raised an eyebrow. "Uh…..sort of?" Will smiled sheepishly with a shrug.
With that, the hunter stares at him in disbelief, wondering what kind of answer is that first of all. He knew this is going to be one long fucking train ride.
