Suddenly, their world have been shaken again,this time it's stronger than usual shake, they did not anticipate and felt that they are falling into the ground one by one.
This time, they landed gradually into a dark and grassy ground. Unexpectedly, the golden ball was drop into the surface and released a ray of light that creates or formed some words midair and a computer system voice over echoed enough for them to hear.
{ Welcome! You have arrived on your first destination, the land of Demon Hunters. Hello! I am Sephora, I am here to introduce to you the new and updated version of the time travel portal. I was created together with the portal to be the guide of the traveler for his or her journey.} The female voice-over said as she introduced herself. {To your journey here in the land of Demon Hunters, you would be encountering different kinds creature, beast, Vampires and of course a human, like yours. Of course, each of your abilities will be enhanced, and you will find it out slowly as it is still processing on your system. You have acquired it when you were still inside this portal. You are appointed to look for the chosen one. A girl in her upcoming 18th birthday will be face danger…} Sephora stopped from speaking when Nathalie spoke out of nowhere.
"Wait, wait, wait! You mean OUR lives here are endangered?" She asked hastily, still in shocked and still processing the circumstances at hand. "Vampires and beast? And what year are we even in, right now?" She added sarcastically while she turned to glare at Peter. She still has a lot of questions regarding the time traveling and currently in doubt and here it goes again, another problem that needs to be absorbed. He just shrugged his shoulder as he tried to observe the surroundings. This isn't a surprise for him as he had encountered Vampires numerous times before when he traveled back in centuries. There is no trace of worry in his eyes considering that he's good in fighting by hand or by sword.
{ My apology, Nathalie but you have to do everything you can to save yourselves here. Yes, Vampires and Beast are still living here today. You are currently in the future, 100 years later from your timeline. You are supposed to look for the girl named Eviery Cloak, she will turn 18 after two days. You will be given a weapon of your choice and the necessities for you to survive.}
"But how long will we be staying here, Sephora?" Peter said reluctantly. Jacob and Nathalie nodded in agreement to his question towards Sephora.
{ Your stay here will be indefinite this time. Your mission is to help Eviery save the world from all the Demons that have been multiplying rapidly. When your mission is done in this place, I will definitely appear and take you to another adventure that awaits you AND, I would like you, Peter, to keep the golden ball properly after I'm done talking. So...now I need you to choose from these weapons, as many as you can.} Sephora said and flushed different kinds of holographic weapons.
They all look into the hologram and saw some guns, swords, daggers, bows and arrows, whipped and etc. There were also bag packs, one for each of them. As they gathered near the hologram, Jacob couldn't stop himself from asking Peter who's walking in front of him. "Master, are those things real? They looked like a computerized weapons." Confusion flustered all over his face.
"Hahaha! Yes, Jacob, that is called holographic display. I have a feeling that when you touch it, it will eventually turn into a real weapon. Am I right, Sephora?" Peter asked the latter confidently for confirmation.
{ Yes, Master. You are right. Holographic Display is one of the advanced technology discovered in the future. You have to touch it first, before it turns into a real object.} Sephora explained.
"Woahh!!!" Astonished Jacob and Nathalie said in unison with a wide smile on their faces. Peter went straight to a golden sword and slowly placed his hand at the top of the holographic display, when his hand touched the display, a little spark was flashed over the sword and it turned real while grabbing it over his hand. A wicked smile flashed over his face as he excitedly glanced at the sword and slashed it into the air creating an X pattern.
Upon looking into Peter, Nathalie followed what he did and chose a dagger. Same goes with Jacob who choses a crossbow.
{ The weapons that you've chosen won't be visible to a human's naked eye, only you and those who have power would be able to see it. So, it would be an advantage for you to bring your weapons wherever you go.} Amazement could be seen in their faces as they continued to choose a weapon of their liking while Sephora is explaining everything.
After they finished choosing and examining their chosen weapons, Sephora begun to talked again {I must say that you are done choosing your weapons, so... it is time for me to leave. I won't show up unless it is time for you to travel on your next adventure. Remember, you have a mission to accomplish and you are responsible for your own lives starting today. Goodbye and be safe, everyone!} Sephora added and slowly the ray lights faded.
"Sephora, Waaiiitttttt….!" Peter roared as the light completely disappeared, it includes Sephora's voice. He wanted to ask her a few more questions but it's too late. 'How are we supposed to start looking for that damn chosen one girl!' he mumbled to his head, looking down into his hand holding a gun. He then transferred his gaze to the woman now beside her with a worried expression written all over her face, while Jacob is walking around studying the area. She looked up to meet Peter's awaiting gaze and he tilted his lips up to flushed a warm smile, hoping to ease all her worries.
She could feel the emotions flushed over his face, she didn't know why but his light blue eyes kind of comforted her as it looked intently towards her with a warm smile while tapping her shoulders. The bright moon light serves as their only light reflecting towards their eyes. They laid down into the grassy ground while their eyes followed Jacob's every movement.
Jacob then returned half running, headed to their direction with no hope expression, "Master, my apology but I couldn't see anything behind these big trees it is too dark down there even the moonlight couldn't help it." He said.
"It's okay, Jacob. We will wait for tomorrow when the sun comes down. Then, we will start looking for the girl." He replied calmly and Jacob nodded in response.
As the night grows darker and darker, the cold is also getting stronger it is as if it stings all over their skin. They decided to make a bonfire to at least, lessen the cold. He removed his jacket and put it over her shoulders, seeing her chilled body as it touches his once in a while. He wanted to give her a warm embrace and hesitated for a second, when he heard her sigh because of the cold, he quickly placed his arms around her to give her warmth and smiled when she turned her gazed towards him with questions in her eyes.
On the other hand, she wanted to protest but her chilled body didn't seem to care anymore, she leaned her head into his shoulder without a word and stared into the fire in front of them. And they fell asleep afterwards.
The next morning, Peter managed to wake up first and examined the surroundings. 'So you dropped us at the woods, huh...Sephora.' he smirked to himself as he walked straight and halted when he suddenly heard a sound. He quickly walked towards where the sound is coming from. He separated the tree branches and tall grass that is covering the whole area. His eyes dilated upon seeing what's in front of him. There were different structures, tall ones and average ones, wide ground with people playing sports, reading books while laying on the grassy ground and people walking everywhere. He blinked his eyes twice upon processing all the things he saw. 'I thought this land is helpless, that's why we are sent here? It doesn't look like danger is everywhere.' he questioned himself.
He went back to where his companion, who's still sleeping so soundly and woke them up one by one. "There are people behind that thick tree branches and grass." He exclaimed surprising the two, Nathalie and Jacob as he pointed out the direction.
Their sleepy eyes altered into wide and startled expression the moment they realize what he was saying. They quickly gather their things around ran immediately into the direction where he went and peek through the separated branches.
"We are dropped inside the school forest." Nathalie said lifeless and sighed. She couldn't believe Peter woke them up just because of this. 'Is this his first time seeing a school ground?' she said sarcastically over her own head and picked up herself from the shocked he brought towards her half asleep self.
