"I'm home mom,and boy I'm hungry " Yami said as he walked into his home. "Don't worry I'm making your favourite, Gyūdon . Good thing you made it back home early, I was getting worried you know" Hina replied while making dinner in the kitchen. "Yeah Yeah, I know already, that's why I came back home early. Where's dad?" Yami replied with a mumbling tone and asked after looking around. " Your dad went out to get something he'll be back soon... Have you set out the lights at the door to scare off the night crawlers?" Hina replied.... "I'm on it" Yami answered.
With Yami dad finally back, The family shut the door and locked themselves inside the house in fright of what the sunset might behold.
With the pleasant scent of the nice Gyūdon prepared by Hina saturating the atmosphere , The family , jigoro, Hina and Yami launched at the dining room eating their fill..
"It's another night again today *sighs." Jigoro booked the silence, "so it seems" Hina comforted. "I hope nobody falls victim to those night crawling beasts again tonight." Jigoro continued..
Aoga. The name of the village, it's a small village situated on a volcanic island surrounded by the sea. It's an island that has been cut off from the current state of the world. It is believed that 100 years ago when the night crawling beasts became active , Humans who longed for survival sailed to the seas and arrived at the island, Those are the ancestors of the Aoga tribe. The ships used to sail to the island were passed off respectively from the ancestors to the descendants being rebuilt every age..
Only a select few now, have access to the ships from their ancestors which includes the Chief of the village, Jigoro and a few others. Totalling about 12 ships owned by the Aoga tribe from their ancestors. This is without doubt that Jigoro bloodline can be traced back to one of the ancestors who owned a ship.
Having been cut off from information about the current state of the world, most of the Aoga tribe don't know what lies beyond the seas or if there are other humans out there.
After having their dinner the family went to bed, The next Morning arrived and the villagers were woken up by a scream.." SOMEBODY, ANYBODY, HELP.... MY FATHER, HE HAS BEEN EATEN BY THE NIGHTCRAWLERS!!!!!"... Hearing this jigoro jumped off his bed, waking hina as he seems to recognise the voice of the child.
A crowd gathered at the scene as early as sun rise.. "Hey Kid, What's the meaning of this?!!, Where was your dad last night?!!" A man among the crowd asked the boy furiously... "I.. I .. I dddoon't know, he told me he'd be home late but I neevv...never taught it'd be after sunset" The boy stammered with tears running down his eyes...."It's the drunkard Fushigami."... "That fool, what was he thinking wandering around after sunset?"... "Now he's left his son behind" .. "What a poor kid" ... *Crowd mummered.... Arriving at the scene, only to behold his friend Fushigami lying at the scene with half of his face chewed out, Inner organs gouged out and signs of being eaten with blood splattered all over the ground..
*Jigoro shouts in pain "FUSHIGAMI!!!!"...
