Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The Slaughter

Yuki was walking around his front yard, bored and nothing to do. He sat beside a tree and waved at his mom, who waved back. He sighed and looked up at the sky, what a bright day.

He wandered into the woods, looking for mushrooms for his mother when suddenly sky turned red, flames stirring all around him. ¨W-What the hell!¨ Yuki exclaimed as he ran back to his village and looked at the horror that had unfolded. A black mist covered the village like a blanket, once the mist faded away Yuki ran to his house to make sure his family was okay..... but they were not okay, not one bit.

¨Guys! Guys i´m coming!¨ Yuki said as he ran into his house and looked around. He saw his entire family laying in a pool of blood, each about 3ft away from each other. Yuki ran to each person to touch their neck, but to no evail. He fell to the ground and started sobbing. He knew he had to get revenge, but didn´t know how to. With nothing else to do, he ran out of his house...

9:00 p.m.

¨Damn...¨ Yuki said as he leaned against a tree and sighed. He closed his eyes and missed the old days, the happy days.... He was tired of running for almost all day. He slumped to the ground in sorrow, slowly he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep, only to wake up again in a few minutes.

He was mad, he was guilty, he was useless. He could´ve saved them, he thought as he pulled out his pocked knife and started writing into the tree, as he was bored and could not go back to sleep. He stopped after a couple minutes and started to get up. He fully stood up and continued to walk around, almost like a lifeless corpse. He was swaying side to side as he was walking, his eyes slowly starting to close, only to be shot open as he was try to stay awake. After about another hour or so he finally fell to the ground and fainted...

10:00 a.m. Mahō no mori

Yuki began to stir and slowly opened his eyes, only to be blinded by the bright sun. He turned away to see someone next to him. ¨Who- who are you?¨ Yuki asked, confused. ¨ Aura.¨ the girl said, her voice was gentle and calming. She began to stand up, her blue eyes shining in the bright light. Yuki also began to stand up, he looked at Aura, who looked the same age as him. ¨Hello, nice to meet you.¨ Aura said as she extended her hand out to shake Yuki´s. Yuki did the same, he was curious on why Aura had brought him here, or.. that´s what he assumed had happened, however he decided not to ask. He shook her hand, he began to walk away, only to be followed by Aura.

¨What do you need?¨ Yuki asked. ¨I want to be with you, to make sure you stay safe.¨ She bluntly stated. Yuki nodded. As they walked out of the forest, a Hobugoburin appeared. Aura went to blow it away, but it was to heavy. Yuki was confused, but was knocked to the ground, he slowly looked up, to see Aura get knocked to the hard floor. She began to breath heavy, her head began to bleed a bit.

Thump...

Thump...

Thump...

Yuki´s heart went, his eyes pinned. He began to slowly rise up, the skin around his upper face began to harden and turn red. Aura looked up with blurry eyes, to see Yuki standing up with fire all around him, she let out a small gasp, but her head fell back to the floor. Yuki then charged at the Hobugoburin, he punched it, and began to spew fire at it, burning it to death. The Hobugoburin turned into ashes, as Yuki fell to the ground, the fire and scales around his eyes faded as he fell to the ground and fainted. Aura raised her head one more time before fainting as well.
