Running. Running Running. that was all he ever did. besides hiding from enemies. He was scared and wanted his parents more then anything.
He felt alone especially now. Gareki was years old at the time.
Come on out kid I won't Hurt you. there was that word again. but this time he would truly be the one hurt. The man was getting closer to gareki's hiding spot. he started to panic what was he going to do to him. gareki was only walking to find a comfortable place to rest before the sun came up. that's when he saw the man but the man really wasn't a man he was a varuga.
Gareki had seen something he wasn't supposed to. The varuga killing a human brutally. there was blood every where. the man had turned around just in time to see gareki now here he was hiding behind a dumpster. with the varuga almost near him. He had to do something. He decided to run. as fast as he could he bolted from behind the dumpster.
But he wasn't quick enough the varuga had slammed him against a brick wall. Gareki hit his back against it. Get up! Get up! GET UP! He yelled in his head. But his young body didn't respond. The varuga had dark gray skin Red eyes and red hair.
Hey kid whats your name. The varuga asked. Gareki he said weakly. Well gareki I don't appreciate those who watch me kill. you understand the varuga said in a low voice. grabbing gareki by the neck trying to strangle him.
W- whats y-y-your name. Gareki said without thought of why he was asking the varuga this.
I don't know why you would ask me that kid since your about to die but whatever. he smiled showing off his razer sharp fangs. It's rider.
Gareki was almost out of breath when another varuga showed up. He to had dark grey skin red eyes but with dark orange hair. He looked scary with all the piercings he had sticking threw his nose. Rider it's time to go we've be spotted again.
Dammit why the hell do you idiots always get spotted when I'm trying to kill jeez.
Lets go rider! the varuga said louder. okay fine. Rider said. letting go of gareki he jumped up on the building the other varuga was on. your lucky that you didn't die today kid maybe another time. Rider and the varuga disappeared. into the dusk sky.
He got up after a moment of caoughing. Rider gareki would remember that name and kill him one day. As much as he hated humans he would also hate varugas.
Gareki woke up Breathing hard and sweating.
It was a nightmare he had occasionally just like his parents deaths. It felt so real. But it was reality again he didn't have to worry about dieing yet.
There was a knock on his door. Etsuko coming in. she in her training clothes. Hey third day of training can you believe it. huh? whats wrong you don't look so good. she said coming closer.
I'm fine. Just a bad nightmare nothing to worry about.
Yes there is. nightmare are terrible to have. she said
no there not. he said
Yes they said
no there not. he said making it clear for her to drop the subject.
She sighed alright fine I'll stop talking about it. she headed towards his bathroom coming out with a towel. wiping off the sweat on his head. she was close to his face but didn't notice to focused on wiping the his head. For some reason he felt his heart speed up. Why was he feeling this way. He looked at the way her caramel brown skin brightened from the moonlight she looked pretty.
Why was he looking at her like this?
He couldn't have a crush on her right. All right done etsuko said there you look better. now get a shower were leaving for training in 10 minutes. I'll bring a blood packet since you missed breakfast.
Wait. He thought. he missed breakfast he looked at his clock 10:02. The nightmare must have kept him a sleep. He said a quick thanks to her before He went in the bathroom stripping off his clothes and going in the shower.
once gareki had his breakfast and was changed into his training clothes. he walked with etsuko to the training hall. where there third session waited for them Dodging performance. there was a large square in the middle of the training hall with punching bags that came up on you unexpectedly but thanks to there vampire senses they could detect which punching bag would pop out at them. but the most two important things were of this training would be speed and how many hits you had while makig it threw to the other side.
If you got hit 5 times you would lose. Tsukumo showed them how to do it the correct way by keeping your hands held in front of you swishing to the left and right often to not get hit by the bags.
This training will help you dodge a varuga's punch which is really fast that's why we have set them up to punch you at there speed. Tsukumo explained. etsuko your up first.
Yes mam. she said. standing behind the starting line. once the horn was blown she walked in with her hands held up. the first punching went up quickly in front of her but she stopped just in time almost getting hit. The punching bags all went in a fast speed but etsuko went slow just like tsukumo had. just when she reached the middle of the square a punching bag hit her on her chin that was the first hit she still had four more. she moved aside as another almost hit her.
She was getting closer to the end when another punching bang landed her on her butt she got up but was hit again from behind landing her on hands and knees.
Etsuko recovered but almost getting hit in the face by another punching bag but pulled her head back in time. Great she thought that was three hits I have to win this with the last two.
Standing back on her legs she concentrated on the sound and the vibrations of the ground. she stepped forward dodging a punching bag with ease. she swifted to the left dodging two more punching bags on her right. making her way out on the other side. she had won. they clapped for her and high five her a good job. Thank guys she said to them.
Your making progress etsuko nice job. Eva said.
Thank you. etsuko said.
You made it look so easy and you came out quickly. Taka said. How'd you do it? All I did was concentrate on the sound and vibrations of the ground after that It wasn't that hard to dodge the punching bags. She explained.
When it's my turn I'll definitely try that out. He said. Well good cause it is your turn. And gareki your up to. said eva.
They both stood behind the starting line. After the horn had blown Gareki had tuned out every other noise to concentrate. Telling by the look on taka's face it looked like he was doing the same thing. they both walked forward with there hands in front of them. gareki watching the punching bags zoom out from under them in slow motion it was as if the world had stopped.
taka was 2 feet in front of him moving to his left to avoid a hit. but he moved to quickly which he earned two hits from the bags. Making him fall to the floor. but he quickly got up almost getting pushed back to the ground. Gareki walked past him in full concentration blocking every hit so far with his hands and moving to his left and right.
He would pass all the training sessions and get His revenge on varuga's and also leave this place. for good. But for some reason gareki's hopes of leaving the V,P,A
(vampire. pertection. organization). Ran low. There was a pull on two things. one of them being etsuko and the other for getting off of the ship far away from the eneimies/humans. He wanted that the most ever since he got there and now he was starting to doubt himself of the idea of leaving etsuko. What would happen to her. She hadn't told him what she was planning on doing after the fight with varuga were over.
He kinda didn't want to leave her side. she was the first nice girl he had met here. she was pretty and tough. That was the most thing he liked about her-
Gareki clenched his fangs together what the hell was he thinking. He could not have feelings for etsuko. He was to cold hearted. At least that's what he thought. Etsuko would have been and bailed on him for his cold attitude. But she didn't she must have thought he was a nice person at least in her eyes.
Gareki. Gareki. Gareki!
He snapped out of his thoughts how long had he just been standing there looking at the floor. looking up he saw Eva, tsukumo and the vampires staring at him concerned. you made it threw awesome. senji said. they all smiled at him. Gareki looked back at the square full of holes in the floor taka had just came out tired landing on his knees and yelled.
only two hits and I made it yes! he fist pumped the air. Eva came over and gave him a towel to wipe the sweat of his four-head. Nice job taka your all making good progress.
Ok the last two senji and aiko your up! eva said.
The varuga's liked to shape shift them selves into humans. they were only able to pull this off by drinking lots of blood. The shape shifting only lasted about ten minutes. But it could be interrupted just by slitting the throat with a knife or a machete. Hirato thought after reading a report from ship one. The varuga's would still have human guest attending the party also. Hirato suspected none of the humans knew of there true forms. Hirato had to make the decision to help these peaple before they were killed unexpectedly.
There was supposed to be a party specifically for varuga's disguised as humans tomorrow night at a mansion hidden in a forest. there were only a total of 39 guest in the event. there were 30 vurugas the 9 being human.
they were headed to the mansion now. they would reach it just in time for the moon to come up the next night. He had to make sure that gareki and the others would be ready. his phone appearing in his hand he called yogi, tsukumo, and eva.
WHAt! they all screamed in shock.
Yogi had to cover his ears. He had recovered from the last time him and gareki had fought. Quiet down and let me explain. he said
How can we calm down when were going to a party in a mansion. Aiko said like it was obvious. Yogi rolled his eyes. It wasn't just a party. He thought
Because this isn't just a party it's a mission also. that you all have to attend and sneak inside of it to secretly kill the varuga in it. But be careful some of the varuga are shape shifted into humans. But some of the humans there are just human not shape shifting varuga. Hirato has chosen this mission because he sees that you all have been training hard and have great senses to tell which is which from a vampire and human. You all will be in this alone. Unfortunatly for me eva hirato and tsukumo we can not help because all the varuga knows our faces.
This is you all's first mission facing the varuga. I'd like to see all the training we put you threw so far has helped. Don't let us down. work together and think of strategies to not get yourself killed. This mission is very dangerous. But you are all strong in your own way. Are there any questions?
Etsuko raised her hand. are we dressing up? And if so then how are you going to buy them?
Yes. you all will be in suits and dresses for this to blind in with the crowd. since hirato knows this he has order tsukumo and eva to make them for you. And don't worry there good at what they do. Yogi replied. they'll be given to you tomorrow night.
Any more questions? he asked? gareki raised his hand next. what about our last session of training.
That will be post poined until this mission is over. Is there any more questions? no one answered alright then dismissed. every one got up thinking and talking about the party tomorrow.
Good Gareki thought now I can get my Revenge on the varugas
Chapter 6 will be coming soon. Thank you all for viewing trust no evil. I hope your enjoying it so far. Thanks again
