The three of us sat in silence together. I sipped on a cup of tea that the boy had made for me.

After setting the cup on the table, I said in a slow and calming voice, "My name is Xavier Edwards. Today, I was meant to die by execution but instead, I was given the chance to become a Hunter. I'm not a talkative and prefer a quiet lifestyle. So I trust that this partnership will be successful."

The boy who had been running around in his boxers, stood up and offered his hand nervously. "It's a pleasure... my name is Ren Okada. I was born here since both of my parents are hunters... I'm pretty awkward around new people, but I hope we'll do okay together." I shook his hand, and he sat down, still looking nervous.

The girl rose gracefully, twirling a strand of her hair. "The name is Gabrielle Elara. Much like my companion, I was born in the Hunter Sanctuary. I'm generally a nice person and enjoy having fun, but if you irritate me then I will kick you." she warned.

Rubbing the back of my head with a weak smile, "It's a pleasure. Would you guys mind showing me around?" I asked.

They exchanged glances before Gabrielle responded, "Sure, we have time to spare." Right after, Ren rose to his feet still a bit nervous.

Together all three of us went on a tour around the house.

We started in the kitchen, which was quite disorganized. "Random question, but are you good at cooking? Neither me or four eyes over here can't cook to save our lives and as you can see, it's quite chaotic." Gabrielle remarked.

"Actually I make decent meals here. It's only you who can't cook to save your life." Ren muttered a loud to her comment.

In response she begun to put him into a headlock, "Not in front of the new guy you dork." She said.

Clearing my throat I interrupted their argument, "During my time at my old job, I have learned how to cook many different styles of food. However, my specialty lies in chocolate desserts and cakes." I declared.

Both looked at me with a gleam of excitement in their eyes, "What types of chocolate desserts?" they asked in unison.

Looks like I caught their attention, "Chocolate pudding, chocolate chip and so much more." I noticed their mouths were watering.

"Lets continue this another time. Where are we headed next?" I asked.

The next stop was the pair of bathrooms, each presenting a completely different appearance upon arrival.

The first was pink, had healthcare mainly for women and tons of hair products, "This is my bathroom and no one besides girls are allowed to enter." Said Gabrielle.

I must admit that it is very well organised and clean.

Upon entering the room next to it, I couldn't help but ask, "Are you serious?" as my eyes scanned the geeky bathroom filled with anime posters, magazines, and a portable TV.

Both me and Gabrielle looked straight at Ren and said in unison, "Why is there a TV here?"

His face turned beet red, "Let's just go upstairs." He speed walk away.

We walked upstairs to where we entered Gabrielle room which was bright and colourful, filled with artwork, and tons of pictures of Rihanna, Kiko Mizuhara and Pavel Nedved.

"Looks like we have similar test in music artist. Which songs of Rihanna do you love?" I asked.

Gabrielle confidential crossed her arms with a smile on her face, "Unfaithful and Diamond." She said.

A smile crack on my face knowing that there Rihanna fan, "S&M and Umbrella." I said confidentially.

She begun to sing a song at first I didn't understand but it soon click in. It was a song called What's a man to do. Immediately I song along with her, "Looks like you and me might be good friends." As we both high-five each other.

After we started laughing, "Alright time for your room Ren." I said to which he seemed slightly embarrassed.

He nervously led us to his room which was plain and filled with geeky things. Like gaming console, figures, weapons models and a training dummy.

I don't understand why he is embarrassed by what he has, "My older brother used to have similar stuff but was far more into sci-fi. So, I more or less feel comfortable in here. What type of games do you have?" I asked.

Ren ran inside and pickup three games from his collection and return to me, "These are my favourite. Do want to play sometimes." he said eagerly.

I lightly giggle before showing off my smile, "Certainly, I'm a bit rusty, however don't go easy on me." I said as I rubbed his head and noticed a smile on his face.

"Aww is the dork blushing???" Gabrielle said in a mocking tone.

To which he loudly muttered, "Bitch."

Next thing I knew she tackle him to the ground, and they got into a fight.

I clapped my hands a few times to which they stop fighting, "Now now kids, I would like to visit my room now."

Next up was my bedroom which had basics items like a bed, a TV, a wardrobe and so on.

I turned to the two and asked, "Is it okay I get some alone time in this room?".

The pair nodded their heads, "Take all the time in the world." Said Gabrielle and soon later the two walked downstairs.

After closing the door behind me and I walked to bed and just dropped down.

The demon appeared and for some reason it stood closed to me.

It's hard to believe that is my family, "Can I call you Lezian for the time being? It has your first name initials and it's easy to remember." They seem to not mind the name. In fact they rub their faces against my head.

"Alright, your new name is Lezian. Now I'm going to sleep for a bit. Please be friendly to them." I said to them as I slowly closed my eyes.

(Two hours later)

I felt something gently shaking me awake and when I opened my eyes.

My family woke me up for some reason, and I pleaded, "Let me sleep a bit longer." In response, they wrapped their tail around my waist, pulled me out of bed, and placed me by the window.

I spotted Hinata outside the house. "She is already here?" I said to myself.

After a few stretches, I opened the window and called her out, "Hinata, hang on, I'm coming-" But as soon as she realized where I was, she disappeared from her spot and reappeared in my room.

She dressed a bit more casual today. A long white flowers sundress with sneakers, "Alright let's go Xavier." She takes her sword and cut through the air again.

I actually wanted to talk about something, so I follow her through. We arrived on a bridge, "How did it go?" She asked.

"They are odd little goofballs. They mentioned being born here. What is that about?" I ask.

Leaning against the railing, she turned to me and said, "Many hunters here eventually started a family, resulting in their children being born in this place. We call these children 'gifted.' The main differences is that they're not allowed to leave the sanctuary until they're sixteen and have achieved at least a C rank. This results in them being quite sheltered from Earth's culture, so they depend largely on their parents to educate them about the outside world." she elaborated.

"And what would happen if the parents decided to live somewhere outside the sanctuary?" I asked.

I felt a strong breeze blow as she remained slight for a while. Before coldly saying, "No one is allowed to leave the sanctuary unless it's a mission. Any other reason will result in your immediate execution."

We both stood there staring at each other. I was starting to understand the type of people that I got myself into, "Is that heartless?"

Hinata approached me, arms folded and a smile gracing her face. "I was fully prepared to replace my teammate who I knew for two years for someone far more beneficial. Every action we take is in the best interest of the sanctuary."
