***in a forest***
***Theo***
RUN!
Holy shit, this bear is quick. It's been tailing me for 2 hours already!
"Grr, let's see how fast you actually are" I stop for a second, crouch and start using 50% of my strength to dash forward.
*BOOM*
When I took off I left a huge crack where I stood, forming a web-like mark."Whoa! look at the beautiful web-like cracks I formed on the hardened sand" as I was admiring my "work" I hadn't noticed the wooden wall i'm speeding towards.
*CRASH*
"Owowow, that hurt" I turn to look at my surroundings and find a big room with a bed, a wierd glass-like thing that I suspect is a mirror, a big box full of clothing, a girl changing her clothes, and an- HUH!? A what? As I turn my head I see a short girl staring at me mouth agape, long brown hair, big sapphire eyes, small pink lips and snow white skin.
The girl, finally registering everything that happened, goes tomato red, screams and slaps me. My natural body's durability and endurance makes it feel like being caressed by a soft hand. I hear some footsteps running towards this room and after staring at the mirror, admiring the handsome youth with red eyes, abyss black hair with red streaks here and there, I realize I'm still butt naked, In a panic I cover myself in a cloak with a black shirt inside and black pants. The door opens and a female with long, messy brown hair and big black eyes dressed in a white shirt with an apron(?) and baggy leather pants looks around the room and stops to look at me, her face going red with anger.
"W-wa-wait! I can explan!" I shout while frantically waving my hands around. This doesn't help since the she picks me up by my hood and takes me to another room just like the other one, she sits on a chair and start interrogating me. "So, boy, mind explaining the huge hole you made on the other room?" She says to me with a smile that doesn't reach her eyes, her eyes don't seem to be smiling either... 'SCARY!' I thought while thinking of a lie 'i have to think up a believable story'. "I got lost in the forest and a big black bear came up behind me and smashed its paw against my back?"

I can see veins forming on her forehead as she says "boy, the forest is a 1 day walk from here" okay I'm dead! Plan B!
I start doing an "Orz" pose while smashing my forehead on the floor, once again forming web-like cracks across the floor. "I'm sorry! I was playing around with explosion magic and blew myself through the wall!" 'Let's hope this lie works'. She looks at me with pitying eyes, drops down and pats my head. "What's your name" Wow, that went better than expected, And by the way, did I mention I look like an eleven year old boy?
"I'm Theo, a deus- I mean beastman" how do I know about these races? Father included it in his memories and I thought it would be a good Idea to hide my race for as long as I can, being the only one of my kind and all. The female looks at me shocked, "I thought beastmen, couldn't use magic?" Shit! Lets make another lie! I stand up and beat my chest with my hand and strike an embarrassing pose... 'deal with it! This is for the sake of hiding your identity!' "Hehe! I'm special!" The female smiles at me and introduces herself "alright, theo, my name's maria and from now on, you're working for me!"
"HUH?!"
