He chased the raven-haired girl throughout the old town. The sun was setting as it always was and fall had just come, leaving leaves of crimson and gold scattered across the ground. There was no one outside, save for the girl and her pursuer. The boy ran harder, his feet pounding on the cobblestone road. He had to catch that girl. But he didn't know why. The girl looked back over her shoulder and, seeing that the boy was a distance behind, stopped for a moment.
When the boy finally began to approach her, she cried out, "Come along now!" She gave him a smirk and disappeared into a large hole in the town's wall that the boy had not seen before. He followed in after her and found himself in a large, wooded area. He looked around for a couple seconds, and then saw the girl walking slowly now no more than one hundred meters away. The boy thought it over and resolved to sneak up on her. He crouched low and began to creep toward the girl slowly, being careful not to step on any of the twigs that had fallen, now making up a large portion of the forest floor.
The boy had almost reached her when a rather animated squirrel appeared on a tree next to him. The squirrel sat there, staring. Now this squirrel, Bucky, was truly interested in this human boy and his short golden hair. He had seen another boy like this, but this could not have been the same one. This boy smelled different. The boy noticed the squirrel and stared back. The squirrel looked into the boys deep, green eyes and they shared the colour of a mighty forest.
Bucky got out an acorn that he had been carrying around all day, and held it out to the human. The boy began to reach out, as if he were accepting a gift. This scene would have been portrayed as a miracle of nature; an amazing bond between two very different species. Except it was at that moment that Bucky threw the acorn at the boy and scuttled up the tree, chattering mischievously.
The acorn struck the boy directly in the eye and he stumbled backwards, shouting and crashing into a pile of leaves. After reorienting himself, the boy got up and brushed himself off. He looked around. The girl was nowhere to be seen. The boy started to search.
After about twenty minutes, the boy got that terrible sensation he was being watched. He turned around and a hooded figure in a black cloak dropped out of a tree behind him.
"Wha!" the boy yelled as he spun around frantically, "Who are you?!" The mysterious person pulled back the hood, revealing the pale, dark haired girl he had been searching for. The girl turned her back on him and began to walk. The boy simply stood there watching.
"You coming?" the girl shouted back over her shoulder.
"Huh? Oh yeah…" the boy replied. She led him through the forest to a pair of black, steel gates, which stood in front of a large mansion.
The boy stared at the building in wonder. Though it had clearly been abandoned many years ago and was now overgrown, the beauty and masterfulness displayed in the architecture was awe-inspiring. Majestic columns and statues adorned the courtyard now crumbling and covered in vines; the stone pathway to the front porch barely visible through the plants that had long since claimed it as their home.
"What is this place?" the boy asked, unable to stop looking around.
"That is not important right now." the mysterious girl answered. "What matters is that any moment now you are going to wake up. Now pay attention. There are creatures, evil creatures that ravage this land. Beasts of Twilight as we call them. At first it was only a local issue, but recently more and more immigrants come here in search of refuge from these monsters."
"Wake up? Monsters?" the boy asked with a puzzled look, "What are you talking about?"
"I'll explain more once you arrive..." the girl said with a sigh, "Come find me my hero."
Hiro awoke in his bed. His head hurt and he didn't know why. There was a knock at the door.
"Hiro! Hurry up! School starts in fifteen minutes!" someone shouted. Kid. That was Kid. Hiro got up and quickly got dressed in his usual attire: purple plaid skinny jeans, white dress shirt, and black tie, and choker. He tossed his text books into his backpack. What was he forgetting?
"Oops…" he said aloud after remembering his homework that he had never finished. "Oh well", he thought and threw it in his bag anyway. He couldn't wait to tell his friends about his odd dream. He was sure Kid would love the mansion, as it was perfectly symmetrical~
