Note: The sparks that Lok emits are electricity and blue.
Dante's POV
It was a few streets away from my house, loaded with shopping bags. I heard an explosion and accelerated the pace.
-It seems that someone is being careless

Lok's POV
I was still on the ground, I was leaning on my knees and my hands, the floor around me was full of burns. I was panting in a desperate attempt to breathe. The men surrounded me, I was trapped, there was no escape. I began to emit sparks that I did not bother to hide, I was scared and cornered, my instincts told me to attack, but I did not know how to do it without being dangerous for whiskers everyone.
One of the men was contacting his boss, I could hear his voice from the other side of the headset, he seemed a bit surprised.
-They have the objective?
-Affirmative, he is surrounded, he can not escape.
-Perfect, the capture ends.
-Yes sir
After saying that, the man took out a blue pistol and pointed at me, I stifled a cry, I did not even want to think about what was going to happen to me.
-Excuse me?
When the person spoke he got the attention of everyone, the voice came from a man who was standing in the entrance, in both arms he carried paper bags full of food that prevented me from seeing his face. The man stepped between my captors, wearing a yellow raincoat, a black sweater, beige pants and brown shoes.
- Is there someone there? A little help? I'm carrying the purchases, can anyone open the door?
I was shocked to see how calm he was, one of the men went to attack the newcomer with a gelatinous green ray, to everyone's surprise the beam was blocked by a kind of reddish shield.
We all watched him go forward, when he reached my height he stopped and looked at me, at that moment I could see his face. His hair was reddish, he had a reddish knob and green glasses covered his amber eyes. He looked at me with concern.
-Hey, are you okay?
-I've been better, believe me.
The stranger looked me up and down, took a few seconds to process the information. The man grinned mischievously, though I think he was trying to hold back his laughter at my dishevelled appearance.
-I think it's time for them to leave.
The men looked at each other a little surprised and gave no sign of wanting to leave.

Dante's POV
I looked at the boy who was lying on the ground for a few moments, he looked a bit funny, but you could tell he was about to collapse, his clothes were tattered, he was pale and dishevelled, and not only his blond hair, but his ears and tails also had a scratch on the right cheek that was still bleeding. I continued observing the boy, it was an animal-type demon, that was evident by the ears and the tails, fox, to be exact, however that pair of black wings did not hit with a demon. While I watched him his emitted electric sparks of blue colour, before that I could not help but smile.
-I think it's time for them to leave.
The men looked at each other a little surprised and gave no sign of wanting to leave. Leave the bags on the floor next to the boy.
-Could you watch this? I have to take out the trash.
The boy nodded. I got up and looked at the agents of the Organization. The agents looked at each other a little surprised.
- Nobody challenges the Organization!
Two Redcaps roared and threw themselves at me, I stayed still until I was inches away from me, at that moment my feet shone in orange red and I jumped on them. The boy gave a moan of disgust that made me smile, land on the wall that surrounded the patio of my house. My glasses fell silent during my little flight.
-I warned you.
Take out an amulet from one of the pockets of my raincoat, it was oval, with three points protruding from the base and grey, in its centre had a blue stone.
- Go play! Calibam!
As soon as I pronounced my titan's name, the necklace glowed blue and Calibam showed up. Calibam was an Aztec warrior, dressed in ancient armor, with long white hair and eyes of blue fire, in his hand held a curved sword.
Calibam landed next to me. The leader of the agents did not seem very happy, although neither was.
- Help him!
At that order the two Redcap were launched against me and my titan. I frowned and jumped to the ground.
-Go
I just had to say that and Calibam charged against a Redcap, he jumped back with his sword to deliver a fatal blow. While I was dealing with another, I avoided his painful attempt to catch me, causing him to fall to the ground. Calibam landed and hitting his Redcap with the hilt of his sword stamped it against the wall, then I try to cut my Redcap with his sword, but he eluded it. Wanting to finish and take out another amulet.
-Let's finish with this once.
After my words the Redcap broke in half, became light and return to his amulet. I turned to face the agents.
-Come on, let's finish this as men.
The agents threw themselves at me in the same way the Redcaps did. After a while of dodging blows I found my chance and threw a man with long hair to the ground with a couple of punches. A woman with red and scaly skin started throwing magma balls at me.
-We'll take you to Defoe as a gift.
The woman scoffed, ignoring her stupid comment and I took a defensive pose again.
-The talk is over. Let's end once and for all!
The last man threw himself at me willing to punch me, grabbed his arm, pulled him over his shoulder and stuffed him into the garbage can.
The woman who remained crouched looking alone and ran away.
-Let me guess, you're Dante Vale, right?
The boy's shaky voice sounded capturing my attention, I approached him to help him up when one of the men had knocked out got up and called his titan, Mindrone, and ordered him to attack us. As soon as I saw it, I took out the amulet I used earlier to cut Redcap in half, the amulet looked like a star with three points on its side.
-Slowing!
I called my titan, he was a hawk with three suits and a Roman helmet and an Egyptian necklace. Screamed and flew directly to the Mindrone cutting it as he had done with the previous, then flew to the agent who had invoked him, who shouted and ran followed by the rest of the agents already recovered.
I looked at the boy, he was sitting on the floor, a little perplexed, hallucinated and relieved, all at the same time. I approached him and offered my hand, he took it and helped him get up.
-What ... what is all this?
I smiled pleasantly and looked around, fixing my eyes on my two titans.
- This is my house. Why do not we go inside?
The boy looked at me suspiciously and backed away from me a little, while his whiskers returned to emit electric sparks.
-Quiet, you're safe, if we go inside you can rest and heal your wounds.
The boy hesitated but finally accepted. We both walked to the stairs that lead to my house, I kept a hand on his back to keep walking and not give him a chance to leave.
We went into my house and told him where the bathroom was and where I could find a medicine cabinet inside, the boy went in the direction I had indicated with caution and kept looking at me from the corner of my eye until I went into the bathroom and closed the door. door. While I went to the kitchen to find him something to drink, not knowing his tastes I opted for a glass of cold water for him and a glass of tropical juice for me, I also made a ham and cheese sandwich in case I was hungry, I took it all in a tray to the living room and put it on the side table, I sat in one of the chairs and wait for the boy to leave.
When the boy came out he placed himself behind the chair opposite me, near the door. He had healed the scratches on his arm and cheek, a small bandage had been put on his arm, but his face had been conformed to stopping the bleeding and disinfecting it. He looked at me with suspicion, I had several theories regarding that, now I had to see what were true.
-Why do not you sit down and rest a little?
-Don't worry, I'm fine.
-Your mouth says one thing, but your whole body tells me another, why so much caution?
-I would not be the first vampire to attack me and leave me dry.
Those words confirmed one of my 3 theories.
-How do you know I'm a vampire?
-Eh ...?, This ..., I saw his fangs when he asked me if I was okay.
That I hesitated so much in answering made me think that it was a lie, although it could also be why I was tired and mistrusting in me, whatever it is now I had another theory.
-Don't worry, I'm not a sucker- The boy seemed confused by that name- Go sit and rest, drink a little and if you want to eat something.
The boy finally accepted my invitation and sat in the armchair next to me, and drank water.
- Since you know my name is just that I know yours, right?
-I supposes. I'm Lok Lamber.
-And you are?
My question surprised him a little.
-What?
-What are you?
-An-a hybrid
- I already see it, between a demon of animal type despoiled and ... what else?
The boy looked at me coldly, I smiled, I did not know if he looked at me like that for calling him dishevelled or for asking him that he was apart from a demon.
-Let's be, okay?
-If you want me to help you, I need to know who I'm helping, you do not look like a bad boy, besides, you notice that you do not like the Organization, so we are on the same side.
-What is the Organization?
-The people who tied you belong to the Organization, let's say they are dedicated to bad things, why do they persecute you?
The boy looked at me but this time with fear.
-I'm not sure at all, but, I think they loved me for what I am and they also wanted my father's diary.
- Why are you?
-You will not give up, will you?
I smiled mischievously so he would know he was right, he sighed and collapsed on the back of the chair, crossing his arms over his chest.
-An angel, I am a hybrid between a demon and an angel.
-Wow ..., that ..., this, ... you are, ... I ...
-Quiet, I usually leave speechless or disengage jaws.
The boy laughed nervously, I smiled shyly, I did not know what to say, I had never imagined that answer. I watched him curiously and I noticed his wings, they were beautiful, I had never seen anything so amazing, not only because it was made of glass, the pattern of spirals they had was hypnotic, in addition, despite being black they could see through of them.
-If you do not mind me asking you, why did not you fly away if you have wings?
-I have a broken wing." He shrugged. -Things that happen.
-Lok, you know if your parents were seekers.
-Seekers are the people who can use titans, right?- I nodded. -No, I do not know if my parents were, my mother died when I was very small and my father disappeared 10 years ago.
-Sorry.
-Yes me too.
I could not help but be sad, unfortunately my second theory had been confirmed. I looked at him with compassion and sorrow, I did not even want to imagine the things that had had to happen to be what it is.
-I almost forgot!
Lok's exclamation took me out of my mind.
-Someone told me that you would know what this is, it's broken, but ..., I do not know ...
Lok handed me an old book, and he was right it was broken. I checked the diary and let Lok explore the room, found my detective badge and I toyed with it a bit. It did not surprise me, since it was brilliant and the pup usually catches attention the things that shine.
-Detective.- He read the plaque out loud. -Does that mean you're a private detective?
I looked at him seriously and went to the table where he was.
-Yes, but what really interests me are the ancient secrets, like these.
Pick up the newspaper, Lok shrugged and left the plate in place.
-It seems that the Organization too, huh?
Lok looked at me for approval to have said the correct name, I nodded and Lok smiled and waved his tails showing how happy he was and tried to hide. I tilted my head and looked at the newspaper I had left open on the table.
-They are looking for this book of yours, or rather, what is left of it.
Lok emitted a moan of grief and looked at the newspaper sadly.
-Well, it's not going to do anybody any good now.
I hardened the look a few seconds and then softened it.
-Lok, this is serious. The Organization is a dangerous group, with agents all over the world. Once they propose something they do not stop.
Lok under the head, I know that's not what I wanted to hear, but it was reality.
-But ... there must be a way out!
Lok scream desperate and with a pleading look, in that moment I felt a lot of pity for him. I got very serious, I could not take away feelings.
-There is one, I have friends at the Huntik Foundation. They are trying to prevent the organization from getting too many titans.
Lok was thinking for a while, with his eyes fixed on the ground.
-Dear, exactly what are the titans ?, I only know what the legends tell.
-The titans are a kind of spiritual demon that can be controlled by people with great will. These people are called seekers. Magical creatures like you and me also have special powers, usually unique to each one, some humans can learn to use witchcraft powers, after they have been given, but more often than not humans can use titans and not powers The Huntik Foundation is full of strong seekers and can protect you.
-No! Lok yelled in despair -No more titans, no seekers!- His voice trembled - there are too many people who want me dead or in a cage, I do not need a world organization to chase me too! You have no idea what happened today!
Lok's body was trembling with confusion, fear and frustration, it was going to break at any moment. I looked at him with compassion, I tried to understand how he felt.
-Lok ...
I said as gently as I could, but I ignore myself.
-Do you know what?! Stay with that ruined and unusable newspaper, I do not care if it was my father's! I do not want to see those guys again!
Lok turned around and headed for the door.
-Wait!
I called him and little angry, not knowing why, causing him to stop with his hand on the handle of the door.
-I'm afraid they are not easy, you belong to all this.
Lok turned to me with eyes full of anger and frustration, his whiskers and tails emitting blue sparks causing a chill to run down my back and give me and a little fear, to hide behind a serious expression.
-What are you talking about?
I opened my eyes in surprise, the poor man had no idea of anything, I mentally slapped myself for not having noticed before.
-Lok, the sparks you emit are small samples of your power, I think it's electricity.
-Has no sense...
-Lok, listen to me, I think that at some point you woke up your powers and by not using them they have accumulated, the sparks are a way to unload that energy that you have accumulated, do you understand what I'm saying?
-It still does not make sense ...
- You see, the powers awaken by contact with their source of origin or by a strong will power, and ...
-I do not mean that, the sparks, I've issued them since I was a baby.
I looked at Lok even more amazed. I know of children who develop their youthful powers, I for example develop them when I was 8 years old, when my mentor picked me up, however it has never been the case of someone who has them since birth, although he is unique in his kind , your condition changes, you can not apply the same conditions as the rest of search engines.
-Interesting ..., from birth.
-I told you that today I had met a very interesting person.
Lok was surprised to hear about Cherit. Cherit flew in and stood next to Lok. Cherit is a small titan, resembling a gargoyle, with bat wings on its back, small fangs, long ears, yellow eyes, a lion-like tail, small claws on its hands and feet and white short hair covering all its body.
-Cherit, did you go to Lok whom you met in the Basilica, to whom you did not have to go?
Cherit nodded with a nervous smile on his face.
-And despite having lived as long as I did, I had never met anyone so fascinating.
-It's you!
Exclaimed Lok, after sharing a smile, Cherit went on explaining.
- You will see, my child, the link between seeker and titan grants special abilities.
Let Cherit continue explaining the basic things to Lok, while I went to the window looking at the patio.
-Lok, forget about Cherit for a moment and look at this.
-And now that?
Lok obeyed my request and stood beside me. When I look at the patio, I was speechless, the front yard of my house was full of agents, in front of everyone were Defoe and Grier.
-It seems that someone just raised the stakes.
Lok looked at me with pleading eyes and ears down, I smiled tenderly to try to comfort him, the poor man had already had enough contact with the Organization for today. For a few seconds I got what I wanted, but Cherit spoke more than the account.
-Wow, Lok! It seems that they really want to catch you.
Lok gave a groan of fear and annoyance. I looked at Cherit with withering eyes, causing her to shrug and smile silly, but he continued to screw up-We're trapped
-Ehh ..., did I mention that I have a story end tomorrow?
