In a gorgeous dark night, the stars were glowing intensely, and the sky was dark but elegant. A little boy runs towards the forest, playing with his dog.

*(Come on, Basil! You are too slow!)

The dog jumps towards the kid, and they fall into the calm river, making him giggle.

*(Ralsei! Where are you?!)

A mother runs towards the forest and sees her kid in the river.

*(RALSEI! WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!)

The kid's smile fades as he notices how despaired the mother is.

*(Mom?)

The mother grabs the kid; the sky was really bright, and the stars were really beautiful.

The mother runs with much despair, and the boy says.

*(Mom, Basil!)

The mother looks back at the river; the dog is still leaving it, but as soon as he leaves, an explosion happens on the river, and the smoke covers everything. The boy was about to look back, but the mother grabbed his head.

*(Don't look back!)

She panics, she tries to run faster. The boy looks at the sky, the stars are multiplying, and their surroundings are exploding as they run.

*(MOM, WHAT IS GOING ON?!)

The mother panics, she starts to cry as she runs; a thunder hits a tree, and the tree falls in front of them.

The boy pants a lot, the mother grabs him and leans on the tree.

*(Everything will be alright, everything will be alright, everything will be alright-)

The boy looks at the stars... They are not stars... And as he realizes this... A thunder of energy hits them...

The trees got destroyed, and so did everything... The animals, the mountains, the rivers... Nothing was left... Except a woman, she was panting, she looked to her side, her heart stopped...

A burned corpse lies on her side.

*(Ralsei...)

She approaches the burned corpse to her chest, she cries really loud...

*(Why are you crying?)

The woman looked at the sky; a strong light was being shined at her, a man with white wings slowly flew towards her.

The woman looked at the creature with a lot of tears.

*(M-my boy...)

The man looked at her and approached her.

*(Don't worry... Your sadness will not persist...)

The woman looked at him, and the man gave his hand to her. The woman grabbed his hand, with a terrified look on her face.

*(Come on... Right there, all the survivors are there...)

The woman looked towards the forest, and she looked at her dead child.

*(I... I was supposed to protect him... From them...)

The man petted her back, and the woman took a deep breath; she turned around, and she started to walk towards the forest... Suddenly, she felt weak, she could feel her life fading, she tried to scream, but something covered her mouth.

*(Shhh... Don't worry... The demons will not get away with that...)

The man impaled the woman with a dagger, and she tried to struggle, but he held her still, and she slowly closed her eyes, falling to the floor lifeless...

The man looked at her body, he looked around, wondering; he opened his hand, an orb appears.

*Any more of them?

*We believe that no commander, all of them did as we requested; they remained at home with their windows closed...

*Great...

He closed his orb, the man spreaded his wings and flew away... But he forgot one person... The father, who ran to the forest with hopes of finding his wife and little boy... But what he found was the truth... The truth that haunted his heart... He grabbed his dead wife, and he leaned his forehead against hers.

*(I am sorry... I am so sorry...)

After that day, the man got much more rigid; the already cold hunter became a completely bitter man... One day, he left his cabin in the woods, carrying his faithful rifle, searching for any sort of animal to eat today... He spotted a rabbit with horns, and he climbed on top of a mountain, preparing his rifle loaded with pressure air, deadly but not messy...

He took a deep breath... As he followed the quick-jumping rabbit... He noticed something further from it... A hole, with smoke coming out of it...

He looked confused at that; he had never seen anything like that...

He walked towards the hole, with a confused look... A boy looked at him from below it; his eyes were green, as was his hair, and his look was emotionless.

*(Kid! What the hell are you doing here?!)

The boy tweaked his head.

*(Where are your parents?!)

The boy looked at him, confused.

The man was really confused by him.

*(You know what... Not my problem...)

The man turned around and walked off; he would eat the vegetables that he collected instead of meat today.

He arrived at his house, he closed the door, he removed his coat, and placed his gun on the side. The man sat on his couch.

*(Weird kid... He is not my problem; his parents will deal with him later...)

The man tried to get comfortable.

*(You know, kids are something to be careful with...)

He felt uncomfortable.

*(Even on days when they weren't supposed to leave...)

He opened his eyes... He missed them so much, he looked at the ripped photo on top of the fireplace; it is ripped right where they were, and he sighed.

*(Why are you like this?)

The man opens his eyes, the boy stands right in front of him on top of the desk...
