Chapter 1 - Luciel

"Fuck, I can't let them catch me!" Said the black haired boy with black eyes, while running with everything he had. He was running and crying.

My name is Luciel. I'm 14 years old and...my village got destroyed by some organization.

They are currently chasing me because I am the only one that survived.

It was...scary.

Watching my family and friends full in blood. Villagers running away in all directions.

All their faces were filled with terror as they ran.

It was night, I ran away in the forest. My family's faces are still deep engraved in my mind.

Those faces...full of terror.

'A tree,'

'I need to climb a tree!' I quickly covered my traces and created fake ones. I had enough time since they were far away.

As I was climbing, I heard a shout from behind me.

"Where is he?!"

"We found his traces this way boss!"

"You two, go follow the traces!"

"Dorian and I will stay here."

I am sitting in the branch, trying to keep my breathing in check.

After 15 minutes, the other two returned.

"Boss, his traces lead to the bridge."

"Ha! Stupid boy." said their boss while laughing. "Let's stop chasing him here. After all,"

"If he runs over that bridge, he is going straight to death." said their boss while grinning.

Luciel took a deep breath. "They finally left."

Right now there was only one thing on my mind... those faces. Those faces of terror.

I might be the only one who survived.

"My family, my friends..." he said, his voice trembling.

Tears started flowing out of his.

"I'll take my revenge!"

"For my friends. For my mother. For my father. For my sister. For my family!" said Luciel with trembling voice.

"I should sleep here for tonight, they might come back."

Luciel woke up, gasping, sweat running down his back with eyes open wide.

He had a nightmare.

It started with him playing with his friends on the street. It was night. They liked playing together on night.

"George, pass me the ball!" said Luciel to a brown haired boy named George. They were playing football.

Since they can't afford a goal, they put their school bags on the ground as goal posts.

A boy was 5 meters in front of George. It was the enemy team's goalkeeper. He looked similiar to George. He was George's older brother, Tharen.

As George passed me the ball, Tharen tried to jump on the ball, but... he missed!

I quickly shot the ball in the goal. George and I celebrated and screamed "3:2!"

"This isn't fair!"said the boy behind Luciel. He was Verum. Beside him stood another boy with an angry expression. "Yeah, Tharen didn't play the role of a goalkeeper properly!"

"Why are you blaming me?!" said Tharen.

"Hahahahaha!" George laughed and said. "Verum, Joren, you're always coomplaining."

"But sti-" they both started to shout but then heard a voice behind them.

"Verum, Joren, they've already won 7 times. Give up." said their goalkeeper, Marek.

"Guys!" shouted a blonde little girl. "Dinner's ready!" That's my younger sister, Mirelle.

"We're coming!"

We took our bags. We went in the house and I hugges my little sister.

"Ew, gross, go take a shower!" she said. We were full fo sweat.

"Hahahahahaha!" laughed my mother and my father from behind.

I shouted at them "Mum, Dad!" They continued laughing. I saw my friends smirking at me.

'Come on, you're full of sweat too!'

"Okay, okay. Go wash your hands. Luciel, you should take a shower after we eat." she said.

Mum told me to come with my friends for dinner, that she will make something for us.

We washes our hands and sat at the table.

"Today we will be eating... a Trout!"

"Wow!" we all shouted.

"Thank yo-"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

We heard a loud boom outside. My father opened the door. His eyes widened and he grew pale.

"What is it, dear?" my mum said.

We all approached the door to look and at the sight, we were horrified. Houses were exploding and a lot of them were on fire.

A lot of people were running away in all directions... terrified.

Some people with black robes and were killing everyone they saw.

My dad quickly closed the doors and took the sword on the wall. He was looking through the window.

"Dear, you can't, there are too many of them!" my mum shouted.

My father looked at my mother and then... someone broke the door. Three men came in. My father attacked one of them. He thrust toward him, the man wasn't prepared and got stabbed in the chest. Blood started flowing out, from his chest and his mouth. It was flowing, like a little river of blood.

The man fell on the ground, dead. Then, dad attacked the second one, slashing downward. The man's sword tilted a little to the left, sending dad's sword to the right, on the ground.

He was shocked. Now he couldn't defend and the masked man was thursring towards his chest. But he dodged! He started lifting his sword but the third man slashed at him. He damaged left arm.

And the second man kicked my dad to the wall and said "Variel! Kill them! I'll kill this bastard!"

"Okay, James!" said the third man, Variel.

When my dad heard that, his eyes widened and attacked Variel, but James defended him. They were clashing while Variel was running at us. First he cut of my mum's arm. She screamed but the man kicked her in the face, sending her to the wall.

Then he attacked my friends. They were terrified. He stabed George's stomack, and slashed at Tharen. He cut off Tharen's both hands. He pulled out a knife and stabbed Tharen in both eyes and kicked him and George to the wall.

Then he threw the knife at Jeron. The knife pierced Jeron's left eye. Variel slashed at Jeron and Verum. They received heavy injuries and some broken bones. Now he stabbed the sword through Mirelle. and threw her at the wall. He didn't want to give us a qucik, painless death.

I was teriffied. I completely froze. I was scared. I watched him killing my family. Tears started flowing out. He turned around and when he saw me, my eyes wide open and tears flowing out, he grinned.

Then he threw the daggers at each of my friend and my mother and sister. He was grinning while watching me.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" he laughed. I was looking at him, scared, terrified. I couldn't move. "Hehehe, those knives that I threw, heh, they were poisoned!". Now I'll give them a slow, painful death! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

I watched them. They were screaming. Blood flowing out of them crazily.

"Well, let's finish this." he said and attacked me.

While he was slashing at me, my dad appeared and blocked. He was full of blood and injuries.

"Damn it!" Variel said.

"Why are you wasting time?!" James said and cut of the heads of my friends and my mother and sister. I couldn't do anything. I was powerless.

My dad push-kicked Variel and sent him a few meters away. Then he grabbed me and we went into one of the rooms.

My dad took the sword from the wall and gave it to me and said "My son, go, run away, to the forest and hide."

"B-But."

"Luciel!"

"Go, use this sword and grow stronger." he said. He gave me a long sword.

"Escape through the window, come on." he opened the window. I jumped through and looked back and saw my dad shout "Run!"

I ran as fast as I could. When I reached the forest I saw my dad waving at me with a happy smile and a tear flowing out of one eye. And then,

My eyes widened. I saw a sword goinh through dad's chest. Even when the sword went through his chest he still smiled at me and waved and he fell on the ground. I saw a man behind him. Looking down at him in disgust. Then he looked at me. Our eyes met and I began running away.

"Damn it." I said as I punched the tree. "To think I would have that nightmare."
