1 My name is...

Out in the thick forest a man in red and silver armor can be seen jumping from tree to tree, while fighting a group of five slimes. They were all colored, one was red, one was blue, and three were brown. The three brown slimes got in a triangle position, and had started launching giant chunks of dirt in a wall shape slowly blocking his exit. He quickly ran along the dirt wall jumping straight at the blue slime. He quickly cut it in half, but it immediately started to join together again. Before it could, a hand had flung into the open cavity and an explosion erupted. With slime flying in every direction a voice sounds out, "One down four to go" in a almost demon like tone. He then quickly ran between the red slime and the brown ones, as the brown ones tried to hit him. They ended up missing and almost hitting the red. Immediately, the red threw a ball of fire that charred the dirt in to a black smoke. From the side, a frozen hand slammed against the reds face as the slime slowly turned crystal clear before turning into a gooey mess. He then turned to the brown slimes and quickly cut through them. Not only did they not regenerate, but the man's skin started to absorb them. Then he began walking out of the forest. He had heard a mysterious crying, he then turned and saw a young boy in the leftover body of what used to be the red slime. He couldn't help but have an overwhelming feeling to protect the small child.

Then he suddenly realized that, the boy should have been scorched by the slime or frozen by his touch. He quickly grabbed the child and ran off. He knew the sound of the child would alert more powerful slimes. When he arrived at the edge of the forest, there was this calm that he had never experienced. He chose to ignore it and head to the center of his town.

When he arrived there was a large street with many houses that were all packed very closely. There were many homeless people crowding the streets. Even though it was very crowded it had a homely and happy vibe to it, and everyone seemed to be happy. He walked down the street to a small house in the middle of the town. He walked in and was suddenly kicked in the face, and was then sent flying across the room. The child was caught in the arms of an older women. "How could you bring a child out into that hell!" The women was around eighty. She was the leader of a mercenary band that call themselves saviors, and this was their base.

The saviors were a band of "mercenaries." All that meant was they got payed to hunt slimes and other creatures. The silver and red armored warrior was named Sean, but his mercenary name was feral. The older women was named Jenny and her mercenary name was Dwarf. There was a large amount of mercenaries but Feral and Dwarf were at the top.

"I didn't do it!" yelled feral looking terrified. "This child is unique,as I had found him inside of a fire slime" said feral nervously. Dwarf looked at him in utter disbelief, but for some reason she was very calm. "If you found him then he is yours to raise, but first you must choose a name. Tell me, what will this warrior be called." "The child was inside a fire slime so his affinity must be fire and he must be a warrior class to survive so long. So what do you think about..."

Three years later, central city

A young boy running through the streets found a group of older kids. They were picking on a younger child who seemed to be homeless. This was uncommon, but it was happening. The young boy came running and punched one of the older boys in the face sending him flying a good twenty feet. The other boys quickly ran away. As the boy reached his hand out to help the younger child asking "what is your name." "Daimon" the younger child said." What yours." Asked Daimon in a nervous but cheerful tone "That doesn't matter, just know that I will be the one to kill all of the slimes" The boy says which a huge smile provoking a smile out of Daimon. Daimon was from a family that had no powers. He was the weakest and couldn't do much physical labor. They quickly became friends, who spent almost all of there time together, pretending to fight slimes. Day after day passed, until two years later when they were running around town. Suddenly Daimon stopped and started running a different direction until he passed out. Before he did, he yelled "Go, that house, right there, save her!" The boy thought it was peculiar that he passed out, because they went running often. He decided to carry his friend and check out the house. When they got to it, a ringing sound was pounding in his ears, warning him of danger. He had never had this chilling feeling.

Despite this ringing, he continued until the cries for help drowned it out. What he saw was worse than anything he had yet to see despite his constant viewing of battles on his battle pod, or AD for alternate dimension. He saw a young girl covered in scars, bruises, and bloodied up so much she didn't even look human. The most horrifying part was the men standing around her, looking as if they were true demons and worse than any slime. They seemed ready to kill her. As soon as he saw this he passed out. Once he woke, all three were laying underneath a tree with no idea what happened. He got up and woke Daimon up, and let the girl wake on her own. When she finally wakes up, he reaches his hand out asking for her name. She gives no response, not even reaching her hand to meet his. So he decides, he will try to get her to smile. "Hello my name is Aaron..."
