Here's the second chapter. The events here are similar to those of the previous chapter, except they're with Vexx and there's other minor differences not worth mentioning. Please enjoy! ^_^
2 - A Mysterious Enemy Emerges
In yet another small village, we hear the faint sounds of low grunts and pebbles falling in the distance. It sounded like someone was climbing up something, but what? There were canyons everywhere, so this person must've been climbing up one of these canyons in order to get somewhere. He - named Vexx - struggled to reach the flat area above him, but when he did, he stood erect and inhaled.
Ah, good old Astara. I sure missed this place…, Vexx thought to himself. He closed his eyes and sighed as the gentle breeze crept under his spiky, blue hair. He raised his hands - correction, red talons - very slightly, taking in the fresh scent of nature. Since when was the last time he felt so relaxed?
He recalled vaguely the many years ago that he lost his grandfather to a ruthless dark being. And he was tall; about 4 times Vexx's height, and he almost always sported a sinister grin on his merciless face. He recalled the time that he and his minions had enslaved himself, his grandfather, and the rest of his race and forced them to search for Wraithhearts; he didn't quite recall how many they were supposed to find, though.
He also remembered sneaking away from them and finding the Astani War Talons - yes, those giant red things with very sharp talons that he's currently wearing on his hands - and after all of this, his life was just never the same again.
But this time, he was now free of all of this; he could do whatever he wanted, now. He observed his talons for a moment before placing them to his sides once more, and he enjoyed the silence that soon followed.
But his quiet moments were interrupted when he heard a deep chuckle from a distance. He quickly turned his head to the source of the laughter and nimbly made his way there. Once he made it to the source of the laughter, he was left with eyes wide and mouth agape at the view he was seeing: fire. Fire everywhere. Every tree, every flower, every bush, everything was on fire. Whatever was on fire used to be a forest full of animal and plant life, but with it all on fire, these animals were either dead or homeless.
Before he could immediately react, he managed to get a glimpse at whoever was fleeing from the burning forest. It looked to be a red squirrel, about his own size, and he wore a blue sweater and green pants. He wasn't sure who this being was, but he knew for sure that he was the culprit for this forest fire.
Oh, so he's the one who caused all of this trouble…, he thought to himself.
With swift motions, Vexx rubbed the sharp metal parts of his talons together and smirked. A low growl escaped from his mouth filled with fangs.
Well, I'll show him to mess with my homeworld…, he muttered to himself as he quickly followed the being.
Second chapter done; I know it's short. I wanted to say that this remaster is pretty straightforward; I have everything planned out and, like I said before, updates will come at random times. Ciao! ^_^
