Crackle Crackle Pop drop Sizzle... Drooling over the fire, all I could do is watch the fire cook the horned rabbit, releasing the aroma of cooked meat. It started to rain lightly as I waited for what felt like an eternity for the food to finish. Dang it, I can't wait any more. I stand up and pull off a leg from the rabbit, and start devouring it. Oh, sweet gods! It's a lot warmer down in the valley. I climmed down to get wood and got to laz... I mean, hungry to climb back up and decided to cook it on the edge of the woods. Snap! Quickly turning around to a big bush like tree, I hold my spear ready. Crunchcrunchcrunch... Spinning back around to the new noise, I almost throw up seeing this, this, MONSTER! There was this thing with a monkey body, but it had spider fangs, four black eyes, and six spider legs just chewing up my rabbit. WAIT, MY RABBIT! You SON OF A BITCH! Do you know how long I have been waiting for that YOU INCONSIDERATE PRICK! Red fills my vision as I launch forward with my spear held straight. The tip meets this almost innocent, looking thing and tore right threw. The spear felt like a hot knife threw butter. It kept going until it skewered right threw the monster. I felt a rush of energy flow threw me after the spear met the monster. Rustlerustlerustle, Look around, where the woods meets the rocky mountain terrain. Dozens of monsters similar to the one I just killed crawl out. They all have different fur colors, mostly different browns. Fuck your all creepy I mutter as I pull my spear out of the corpse, as smile runs across my face. Whats your opinion of fire? The monkeys all show their knife like teeth. The biggest of the group charges forward with a silence only filled with the clacking of legs and crushing of leaves, swiftly followed by the others. I decided to meet them. Launching off the rock I stood on, I hold the spear in one hand and summon a fireball in my other hand. I meet the leader monkey with my spear and its front legs, making a loud Clang! I feel a pang of pain in my left leg, turning my head to a smaller monkey shredding my calf. My vision turns a darker shade of red as I pull a spear from the large monkey and thrust it into the back of the little one. I shove the fireball in my hand into the open mouth of the large monkey as it lunges at me. I summon fire, coating myself in it. The fireball burst with power, obliterating the head of the monkey. I get thrown back, feeling the intense heat from the fireball and my flame coat. I get thrown back into another monkey, smashing it as it breaks my fall. I summon a fireball after fireball throwing them into the croud of monkeys. After blowing up most of the group, I try to summon another, but nothing comes. Scoffing in anger, I summon two flame blades, as my spear is still in the little monkey. I rush at the last seven monkeys of various colors and sizes. They rip into me as I slice them apart, my flame coating puffs out. The rain comes down harder as I begin to slip on the slick and muddy ground. I feel an emptiness inside of me as my blades fall apart and disappear. Theres just one injured monkey and me left. Looking to the right of the monkey, I see with my red, hazy vision what looks to be an outline of my spear still in the little monkey. I take the first step in our stalemate. I rush as fast as I can towards the monkey as it charges in return. When we are within two steps of each other, I jump and roll to its right, running right into the little monkey's body. I quickly stand up, pulling my spear out of the corpse and in front of me just in time to see the monkey descend upon me. I prop the end of my spear into a crack of a rock, holding the spear in line with the decending monkey. Unable to stop itself, it crashes down on the spear, going threw the chest with a Spurch! Along with a bunch of other disgusting noises, the monkey slides down the spear, opening and shutting its jaw, angerly trying to kill the creature that slaughtered its family, inching closer and closer, only for everything to turn to black. Gasp, huff huff huuu~ Man, that was too close. I muttered, my red vision fading away. Uaggh, I'm hit with a spitting headache and a hurting body as my adrenaline fades away. My vision has turns all blurry. I feel my body give out as I lay upon the cold, wet ground, my bloodied hands sliding down the spear's shaft. I hear the system's dinging going off in my head as everything finally goes black...Rustling..step,step... O crap, Nick Go get Mia! StepstepstepCreak, Can you hear me? Shit, thats a lot of blood. Hey, stay with us you're gonna be okay. Nick! I must be hearing things, I think as I drift into the comforting embrace of sleep~
Creak,thump,thunk,thump~Groan,God damn everything hurts, opening my eyes i look around, I seem to be in a leaf hut like shelter, I'm laying upon what looks to be an old ripped sleeping bag, System what happened?

Step,step,step... Quickly dismissing her status window Celia jumps off the sleeping bag with her bandaged and aching body leans into a shadow next to the door while summoning a fire blade. The steps stop next to the opening, and a smooth yet rough voice sounds out. Little girl, if we wanted to hurt you, why would we have bandaged you up or saved you from your past peril? Also, I'm triple your level, so your little blaze could barley graze my skin. So lay back down while I go get our healer. Celia doesn't believe the man for a second and quickly darts for the other side of the leaf hut, hopping to bust through the wall to escape. As she is about to reach the wall, she is suddenly picked up and turned around. She suddenly faced with a handsomely rugged man with pitch black hair and deep blue, almost purple eyes. But the most intriguing part is the fact that he has wolf ears on top of his head! What the he-Now don't be a brat and lay down. He interrupted, Celia, getting pissed off by being picked up and treated like a child, even though shes in her early twenties. She swings her blazing dagger at his throat. His skin seems to glow for a second when the blade touches the skin. Leaving not a scratch. Celia's mouth hung open in shock. Mon-MONSTER! The man hearing this set her, shocked self down on the sleeping bag with a smirk, Now don't move, for I can catch you just as easily. With no other choice, Celia just nodded her head in compliance. Seeing this, the man turns away, and Celia finally notices something else except his tail. Above his head is a system box with a bunch of question marks!
Name-???Level-???Race-???
Wait, are those the same question marks I have in my title?
No, that is his identification bar and everyone has one, but similar to the title you are too low level to see what it is.
So he can see my shit! And what is he?
Yes, and that's for you to find out.
Well you're real helpful, Rustle. Quicky Looking over to the door, the wolfman walks in, followed by a pink haired woman. She had a rosy complexion with her pink lips and cheeks. Her bubble gum pink eyes stared at me in worry. Sigh, am I really that low leveled, I complain to myself as I look above their heads, seeing the same thing as the man. This woman didn't have any extra appendages tho, well as far as I can see. She looked at the man as he gazed at me. Turning to her, he nodded and walked out of the room. The moment his tail left the opening, the woman rushed towards me. Summoning a blade into my hand, I held it out threateningly not to take any chances. Ignoring my blade, she grabs my rist and pulls me into a hug. Confused by the sudden warmth, my blade dissipates. Oh, you poor baby, are you okay!? Do you feel pain anywhere? I was so worried when we found you half dead! Cried the lady. She released her python like hug and began examining me head to toe for injuries. She kept on interrogating me, even picking me up in a baby craddle and rocking me!?! You poor baby, I can't imagine what you had to go through being out there alone with these bad, bad monsters! She squeezed me as tight as she could. In desperation for air, I tap my finger on her back, hoping to get her attention. She lowered her hand, which was pushing my head into her chest too my back. GASP! Can you put me down?! I squeezed out. Dear, I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm soooo sorry, I'm not used to this strength. O please forgive me! DOWN, tired from my pride being hurt, I almost begged to be let down. Setting me on the sleeping bag, she neals down in her brown robe, giving my puppy eyes just begging for forgiveness. Staring into those eyes, I feel myself giving in. Uagg, fine, I'll forgive you if you tell me where I am, who you people are, and what happened! ??? Confusion runs across her face. You sure sound a lot older than you are. She said with piety in her eyes. Well, Miss Celaeno, you are currently, in gods know where, with me and my group. My name is Mia. The resident healer, the wolfkin that you just met, is Nick, our leader and warrior. There are nine others that you will meet soon with various classes. As for your last question, on our daily scouting mission, we heard explosions and cries of pain. By the time we arrived at the battle, we found you bleeding out and on the verge of death under one of those spider monkeys. I healed you the best I could, but you refused to wake up for three days. O curse the system for even dragging a poor child into this hell! Mia said with a tear falling from her eye. Well, I began, only to be interrupted by a grumble. Blushing from embarrassment, I ask, Do you by chance have any food?
