Chapter 1 - Oasis: In the beginning part one

In the distant future.

As the darkness filled the land and fire rained down from the sky a being with scarlet red armor stood there in the rocky waseland overlooking the destroyed area. Reaching out to it a white light appears magically bringing a scarlet red sword with a black handle into his hand. Turning on a heel he's suddenly  struck by a fireball which sents him flying into the ground, quickly rolling to the side he avoids the next oncoming fireball only melting off the right side of his helment ever so slightly revealing his cold crimson colored eye getting back on his feet he grabs his sword dodging yet another attack. Getting more and more closer to his target he summons his shield taking a firey attack head on bashing striaght into his enemy who was surrounded in flames effectively stunning him to the ground.   As the knight raised his sword above his head he sent his blade flying down but before it could hit the flames die out revealing a young boy with dirty blonde hair and he just freezes up. Realizing his mistake he raises his sword yet again only for the boy to easily overpower him and knocking it out of his hands. Lifting the warrior up by his neck he stares at him with an orange like energy in his eyes as yet another fireball appears from the palm of his hand he smiles bringing it closer to him.Reaching out his hand once more the knight summons his sword and cuts off the hand that was holding him by the neck allowing him to drop to the ground unharm.  Unfazed by the turn of events the boy looks at his hand as it turns into ashes and reforms back on as if nothing happned.

warrior: Please I know you're still in there give up. I don't want to do this!

Boy: As if you could.

Pointing his hand outwards a stream of fire comes out of it forcing the warrior to put his shield up in hopes of sheilding himself from the flames but suddenly everything begins to come to a stop and goes black.

Kaz: (narrating) There once was a time where everyting in the world was simple. There was no bad guy, no world that needed to saving and there certainly wasn't no chump-- i mean "hero" that was obligated to save it. But since I'm the one telling the story i might as well tell it from the begining back when everything was still perfect.

Six years ago.

It was just another day in the great land of sunny sundan. The birds were chirping as the sun shined down on a small town named Newsham and for a moment there was nothing but silence until a loud crash came from a nearby bakery and with it a young boy by the name of Kaz bane running away from it before he could get away a small girl with short black hair around his age blocks off his path allowing the baker to catch up.

Baker: Give back what you stole boy!

Kaz: I didn't steal a thing old man.

Arian: kaz! Do what the man says.

Kaz: (sighs)

Reaching into his vest he grabs a little bag of flour and hands it back to the baker, turning towards the little girl he smiles.

Baker: I don't know what i would have done without your help. God bless you little Arian.

Arian: It's no trouble at all Mr. Smith.

Giving Kaz  one more frown he hands Arian a loaf of bread and walks off, waiting until he was out of ear range Arian then turns to kaz smiling.

Arian: How long until he realizes that the bag of flour you stole is half empty?

Kaz: Not long enough.

As both Kaz and Arian hear the cries of the distraught baker they run off laughing into the crowed.

Ten minutes later

Both Arian and kaz were still laughing as they walked along the river bank while sharing the piece of bread from earlier.

Arian: (laughs) I can't believe you made me do that.

Kaz: Like you didnt enjoy doing it besides Mr. smith has ton of flour i only took what i needed.

Arian: That reminds me happy birthday and consider this my one and only gift to you.

Kaz: How's that any fair?

Arian: well considering that my father would kill me if i was anywhere near you i would say that's fair, besides you better hope your mom doesn't find out what happened like last time.

Kaz: Last time your dad the sheriff caught me besides it's not like Mr. Smith knows where I---

Before kaz could finish his sentence he sees both Arian's dad and his mom on the porch talking to the baker as they all look up from their conversation a frown appearing on both the parents faces.

Later that day

After being scolded by both the sheriff and the baker kaz's mom pulls him inside tugging onto his ear.

Disa: How many times have i told you not to steal from Mr. Smith your lucky he doesnt ban you from the bakery!

Kaz: Mom i said i was sorry.

Disa: But are you really? How many times do i have to keep bailing you out of trouble?

Kaz: Mom I was only getting what we needed for my birthday cake...its not like we have any extra spending money for it anyways.

For a moment her eyes soften and  she sits on the couch rubbing her eyes together in exhaustion.

Disa: Kaz...now that your turning ten years old it's imporant that you know that I'm not going to live forever son. One day I'm going to have to go just like everyone else in this world it's only life but as long as I'm breathing no son of mine is going to be a thief.

Kaz: I'm sorry mom.

Disa: (sighs) I know you are. And as for your birthday party it's canceled your grounded go up to your room.

Kaz: But--

Disa: Go to your room!

Running up the stairs kaz runs into his room slamming the door behind him with his face covered by his pillow he screams into it. 

Later that night

Kaz just sat there staring up at the ceiling just alone with his thoughts did he really deserve this of all things it was his birthday he thought to himself but as his mind begins to wonder more and more he hears a crash from down stairs for a moment he doens't do anything but decides to go investigate. Slowly walking down the stairs kaz sees what looked like a monster pinning a dark figure to the wall as he got closer he could see that the monster he had found was his mother. Her dark brown eyes had turned crimson red and her finger nails claws. Now aware of his presence she turns back shocked.

Disa: kaz? What are you--

But before she could explain herself  the man presses a button  which caused an explosion to fill the house burning everything along with it.
