"I use to have a purpose...„
A young boy playing with his friends in a lake and the sounds of laughter fill the air,a fire glows in the distance,the kids run towards the source of the flames.They bare witness to pure destruction as they lay their innocent eyes on the sight of death
"Get every single of these bastards!„A king doused in golden armor commands as his troops slay civilians of a burning kingdom,his sword swaying with intensity
The troops turn their attention towards the group of kids,"Off with their heads!„the king king points his blade at the direction of the kids
The troops charge and impale the kids as the try to scatter,one by one the sound of flesh being torn apart,screams and cries of children echo throughout
One manages to escape hiding in a small animal den out of the troops sight
"That was ten years ago...„A hooded figure enters a town,sounds of salesmen and kids laughing fill the air the boy looks around taking in the scenery and spots a bar.He walks over and enters the bar taking a seat and orders a glass of water
"Just a glass of water please.„
The bartender nods and prepares the glass of water and hands it to the young man
"Thank you„the boy pays and takes a sip of his water
"My pleasure„the bartender says while making her way to the drinks to make other orders
"BOOM!„
A loud explosion shoots the door open
"The hell? ——!!!„the hooded boy turns around to face the now smoke filled bar as eyes glow within the smoke
"You are at the mercy of the Black Sparrows„A muffled voice speaks out within the smoke
The smoke clears to reveal masked figures with weapons of sorts just standing there...MENACINGLY!
"Give us all your money now or face severe consequences„one of the Raiders take an elderly man and holds him by the neck while caressing his cheek with a rusted blade drawing a line of blood
"P-p-please...let me go I have nothing...!„the old man pleads for his life to no avail
The young boy sits at his table drinking his water until one of the raider lays their attention on him"Hey you small fry do me a favor and hand over your money and we'll let you out of here with only a few fingers missing ok?„the raider says while pointing a loaded cannon
The boy stays silent still sipping on his water wich the raider doesn't take to kindly,and he walks over to the man whispers in his ear
"Don't act all tough with me I'll skin you alive boy„the raider takes out a pocket knife and inches it towards the boys jugular
With a swift movement the boy slaps the knife out of the raiders hand and stabs him through the head with blood spewing everywhere leaving all of the people standing there stunned
"Kill him„one of the raiders command
They all charge at the boy
The boy catches the punch of one the raiders and tears the raiders prosthetic arm off and use it as a weapon against the other raiders breaking the skull of two raiders that dared to charge at him
The sound of metal and gunfire echoe throughout the bar with the boy taking down one raider after the other but also taking critical damage in the bloody altercation
"Take this you twat!!!„A larger raider picks the boy up and runs the boys head through a long table breaking the bottles on the table
"shit„the boy says,kicking the burly raider off him to recover and regain his composure
"BOOM!!!„A cannon ball hits the boy square in the stomach sending him flying through the bar into a salon
The boy grunts and gets up"Hello ladies don't mind me just...um taking care of business also can I borrow that?„the boy points at a broom "Oh...um s-sure„a young lady hands him the broom"Thank you very much„the boy charges at the last 2 raiders
"BACK SO SOON?!„the larger raider takes his cloak off revealing a bulky ogre,his silver gauntlet shining.The second raider takes his hood off to reveal a half man half machine as he charges a gun that pulsates a blue lighting
The boy charges and begins to fight the larger opponent while simultaneously avoiding getting his head blown off by a gun that shoots out bolts of lightning
The boy and giant ogre exchange blow with the boy punching the jaw of the ogre and the ogre down slamming the boy onto the cold hard wooden floor breaking it completely
"Gah!„the boy coughs up some blood
The ogre throws the boy into a wall but the boy leaps off that wall dropping kicking the ogre leaving the ogre stunned for a few minutes
The boy takes the opportunity and charges at the other raider "You're good at shooting but how good are those hands?„the boy pummels the man up and rips his gun from his body and shoots him with it
"BANG!!!BANG!!!„the boy turns his attention back to the ogre whos movements have become barbaric and random
"Something is fueling his body no normal ogre can get this big...eyes...is he using chemicals?!„the boy thinks while dodging the ogres attacks"His body seems to not be able to handle all this power at once——!!!„the ogres body begins to bubble and crack with the ogre screaming in pain
"GAH PLEASE!!!HELP ME!!!PLEASE KILL ME THIS PAIN!!!TO MUCH!!!AHH—!!!„the ogres body glows sickly green and just like that
"PFWOOOM!!!„it's body explodes,it's organs flying everywhere like shrapnel,sending the boy flying and tearing his clothes leaving him in half of his pants and partially some of his vest reamain
"Crap...„the boy looks around him taking in all the destruction caused by the explosion
The towns enforcers arrive and handcuff the boy placing him in a vehicle ran via steam and gears
"You have tons of explaining to do young man„a enforcer says haulting him in the car
They arrive at the wards office and question the boy
"tell me boy what's your name„a chief enforcer asks
"I'm Ryker,Ryker Darkhaven sir„Ryker says while sweating bullets and doing his best to avoid eye contact
"Well Mr.Darkhaven tell exactly what happened„
Ryker gives the chief enforcer a brief summary of the events that took place at the bar and how half the street was covered in ogre organs and smelled like rotten flesh
"I see so let me get this straight you took down all 17 raiders at once all by yourself? „the chief enforcer looking sceptical at Ryker story,Ryker nods "Yessir„
"Hmm I can't say I don't believe because you're living proof of what happened I mean look at you barely any clothes,the enforcer orders his low ranking apprentice to fetch Ryker new clothes
"You have alot of potential how's about you join the IEA?„the cheif warden asks
"The IEA?„Ryker tilts his head
"The INTER ENFORCEMENT ASSOCIATION how don't you know?„the chief warden asks
"I don't know„Ryker shrugs
"That doesn't matter now,let's get you settled in„he hands Ryker clothes and tells him to go change
Ryker changes in the bathroom and follows the chief warden to his dorm
"This is where you'll be living you will be sharing it with Laura but be careful she tends to be hot headed„the warden gives ryker more clothes and other living essentials
"Well that's all from me today you'll be hearing from the commander enforcer for training tomorrow so get enough sleep„the warden says while closing the door behind Ryker leaving him to fend for himself now
A voice echoes in the room"So your the new dumbass who took on 17 raiders ay?impressive„Laura moves closer and extends her hand for a handshake
Ryker shakes her hand and greets"Oh um I guess news travels fast in this town huh?„Ryker nervously chuckles
She squeezes his hands tighter causing Ryker to wince out in pain
"Whats wrong„she asks sarcastically"Can't handle a handshake from a girl?„she let's go chuckling and patting his head "Oh you have a lot to learn buddy„
"Hehe...yeah...„Ryker awkwardly chuckles
The both head to their beds and sleep
Ryker looks at the sealing "Mom...Dad...My kingdom I promise your death shall not be in vein...ill kill that bastard...„
Ryker closes his eyes going to sleep
Ryker wakes up in a grassy field with crosses and skulls laying everywhere
"The hell?...„he looks around taking in the odd scenery until he notices a shadowy figure
"HEY WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT IS THIS PLACE?„he yells out
The figure turns it's attention to him with in the blink of an eye is in front of Ryker
Ryker jumps back clutching his chest
"Give me a warning if you're going to do that„
The figure moves closer and walks right into Ryker "The hell?!„his body begins cracking
"AHHHHH!!!„Ryker writhes in pain and his body explodes into a ball of light
Ryker falls from the sky with a redish maroon ish hue covering his hands and legs
And all of a sudden chains pull Ryker up into the sky
Ryker wakes up in a cold sweat with a glowing tattoo forming on his arms it's pattern changing constantly
"What is this...?„Ryker looks at his arms in disbelief to stunned to really do anything
