Death's P.O.V.
I faltered,
"What is the mission?"
She smiled and said,
"You'll find out soon, but until then you should head towards the darkness."
She pointed behind and and I looked. Then I saw it. A black shadow/cloud hovering above some place in America. I turned around,
"What is goi-"
I trailed off while looking around, there were no traces of her and I sighed. I guess it's time for a new adventure...
I went back to my home and started packing up. After I finished I teleported underneath the shadow. Unlike what I thought, if you were in the area then you wouldn't be able to see it.
"Hm... what should I do right now.?"
I decided on building a new place to stay. I found a good spot, closed my eyes, and imagined a place to stay similar to the one I had in desert. After a while I reopened my eyes and the blue flames diminished.
'It worked..'
"Excuse me miss, who are you and why are you here?"
I looked behind me, and saw a girl with dirty blonde hair and black eyes. She looked around 22 or 23.
"Excuse me. I asked you a question."
I sighed, so she was the arrogant type. I looked around and saw that she came with companions. There was a boy with brown hair and golden eyes and another girl with black hair at her roots and red hair at the tips and sea green eyes.
"Well I was looking around and decided to camp here, is there a problem?"
"Ahem"
I heard a cough and turned around again. There I saw a 23-24 year old boy leaning on a motorcycle.
"This is really unusual, Chiron told us there would be five people who could help us get rid of the shadow in the woods but I can only see two mortals."
Did the brown-haired one just call me and the other people a mortal? I mean sure we could be considered that but why are they using that term like they aren't??
"Sorry for my two friends words. I'm Serena, the boy is Aaron, and the other girl with blonde hair is Akira. What are your names?"
Okay, maybe the multi-colored one isn't as bad..
"You can call me War, it's nice to meet you."
The boy behind me spoke again. Why does the name War sound so familiar..? I shook my head and replied.
"And I'm Death."
"Are you sure those are your real names?"
I looked at the blonde, I think her name was Akira, and said,
"So what if it isn't? Why would you want to know."
"Let's not try to start a fight alright?~"
An unfamiliar feeling washed over me.. it made me feel cold.. I could tell that the others felt this way too from their expressions. I turned slightly and there I saw another girl maybe 22 or 21?
"I'm Famine, its a pleasure to meet you~"
She snapped once and all of a sudden it felt warmer.
"How did you do that??"
The brunette, Aaron, spoke up again. To tell you the truth I was quite curious as well.
"Let's just say I have my secrets. On another note, why is there a boat riding a on a wave coming right to us?"
We all looked towards where she was looking and she was right, there seemed to be a person on the boat as well.
And then the wave came over us, the boat landed in front of a tree and the boy in the boat was somehow, completely dry. He got out of the boat and smiled stiffly.
"I didn't think there would be anyone here. Anyway, I'm Conquest sorry about getting you all wet."
The blond asked him,
"How are you still dry? I mean I get how Serena's dry but how are you dry?"
"Akira, it's pretty obvious that they have some sort of powers. Anyway I don't believe I properly-"
She trailed off as she stared behind me. I looked behind me and saw an army of monsters, looks like it's time for combat. I got out my daggers, Famine got out knives, War got his two guns, and Conquest got out swords. The other three quickly got out their weapons and we started fighting.
