1 Prologue - The Red Stars

THERE IS SOMETHING ON THE ROOF. IT'S ONLY MADE OF COCONUT LEAVES all weaved together to make decent but flimsy hut. Gust of wind startled the people sleeping inside. A young five years old boy and a fifty years old man in bewilderment started to stand up while listening to what's happening outside.

"they are here!" a raspy old lady voice can be heard from the roof.

"I'm scared," the boy whispered.

The old man gestured to the boy to be quiet. He walks slowly to the window made out of bamboo and roll out the cloth curtain that is tied at the side to cover the window.

"they found us" whispered by the old man. "you know what to do".

Immediately upon command, the boy snap out of his fright and runs toward a foot tall jar to fetch out a ring. The boy started chanting incantation while holding the ring into his fist tightly. The boy held out his hands offering to hold the old man.

The roof started getting ripped apart by what it looks like a human-like birds with red glowing eyes.

"something is not right!" the boy yelled. "someone is interfering with the ring!".

bewildered, the old man grabbed what it look like a spear under the cot. The roof was now completely torn apart. "Beast! I'm warning you!" the old man is shaking, he is not trained to fight, but he needs to protect the boy. "you have to run as fast as you can", the boy understood and without hesitation burst out of the hut. He knew what he has to do, even if it meant leaving his protector behind.

Loud scream is all he heard as he run as fast as he can. He cant look back now, tears on his eyes, the boy look at the night sky as he rubbed his eyes to clear his vision. There he noticed, his hands are gone, his whole body started to vanish like it doesn't exist.
