Chapter three: Fight Then Flight
Going from complete darkness to a green meadow, Kris was in awe at how real the wind and even the sun’s warmth felt on him he barely noticed the surroundings.
“Kill them all!” a masculine deep voice could be heard.
Pulled from his senses finally focusing on the scene before him, figures in dark robes unsheathing swords as figures in golden armor ran at them.
“this is, umm, very life like,” Kris let his thoughts out surveying the surroundings.
WHOOSH!
An arrow went past his head. It was so close that the air from it tickled his nose. It was almost real. Then something that shouldn’t happen in a dream began as he felt a pain. It was more like an agitation, like that of a sliver in his arm. It woke him from his delusional dream. This was reality.
Quickly looking at his arm an arrow stuck out of it but what was more strange then seeing an arrow was his arm it had now turned a grayish color looking more muscular and strange black lines ran up it. Hesitantly pulling the arrow out lucky it wasn’t deep but it was more painful pulling it out.
The chaotic battle of people shouting cursing crying filled the air looking behind him, Kris saw 5 very odd looking people like him they were dazed and confused looking around the battleground.
“this ones special, boy come here quickly”
Looking towards the voice Kris saw a man with a dark hood holding a black staff. Except it wasn’t a man its face was like a deflated balloon with orange color skin and dark eyes with no pupils. The man was extremely calm even though figures were dancing with death around him.
“he wants to rape me”
That was Kris first thought, looking for an opening Kris dashed away from balloon faced weirdo, lucky he had sneakers still on his feet.
“wait come back”
This wasn’t a dream. As he began running, Kris found a normal looking woman with brown hair in a ponytail wearing a golden tunic with a matching golden cloak carrying a sword.
Not caring that her sword was stained with blood, Kris called out to her.
“Please save me, I don’t know whats going on here!”
The woman looking at him, flashed a sadistic smile as she raised her sword into a charging position.
Yelling “Die monster!” she charged at him.
“Wait! Stop! I know I look weird but I’m the same as you.”
The woman didn’t stop. She slashed her sword sideways at Kris. Kris began moving back the fastest he had ever done before he managed to dodge the strike by falling backwards on his butt.
Kris’s eyes filled with tears and shock as the woman raised the sword with both hands intending to slice downwards at a unarmed Kris.
“Please, no,”
Nearly sobbing begging for her to stop, he called as he timidly held his hands up. Bracing himself and relying solely on instinct, Kris tried to block his head from the sword swinging downwards about to deliver the fatal strike.

Still watching her through now tearful eyes Kris saw something strange. She wasn’t moving, but looking more carefully he saw that she was moving except incredibly slow. Her eyes filled with anger and shock, went wide looking around trying with all her might to swing faster. It was only for an instance in the next moment a large fury beast running on two legs charged into her ripping her into the ground clawing at her.
Both went hurdling over a few feet from Kris. He was in shock at what had happened looking over seeing the wolf clawing the woman to death.
Blood gushed out the woman who was already dead her eyes still in shock. Kris’s reason fled him he lost sight of all the chaotic sounds just sitting dumbfounded looking up at where the woman had just been.
A strong grip held onto Kris’s shoulder moving slowly as he looked at the hand. It was a large figure holding a black staff. The man he had run away from. “You are very lucky, and very stupid. Boaaz come let’s leave quickly.”
The man motioned over to the wolf beast who saved Kris as soon as he was close. A light engulfed the three and soon they vanished from the battlefield.

Standing Thorax looked down at a woman's body her eyes open with a shocked expression forever engraved on her dead body. Her torso was ripped to shreds with many claw marks all over her, he had known this woman named Francesca they had both been sent to this world as heroes by the great god Osnir to slay demons sent by the evil god.
“pitiful”
Thorax with no pity in his eyes called looking down at her. She had been chosen by god to eradicate demons and yet she died.
But this was going to be fun, he had caught a glimpse of her killer. It was a grey like humanoid, he had frozen her with magic. He was stronger then all the others and the only one sent by the evil god that had killed a hero chosen by Osnir.
“how many of the demon god’s chosen devils escaped”
Looking behind at his subordinate a small man in his eyes, a relative of this world waiting for an answer
“three were found dead with the evil gods mark, two others in groups with demi-humans headed south and east. And the other he just vanished from the field”
“humph I know, when Vera and Kinsley get here have them go after the two in the groups, I want that grey one”
“but sir he just vanished we have no idea where he went, how do you intend to find him”
“ Osnir gave me a great gift to help me with my hunt”
Touching a small red dot on his right hands palm a small map popped up which only he could see
, showing two red dots east and south there was one north that was very faint. Now facing the direction north picking up his huge axe with eyes turning red,
“What a great hunt this will be”
He whispered as he began charging north to hunt an interesting prey.
