Chapter 8

*Rocks tumble off the steep hill*

Lock desperately darted down and across over towards his house.

Within a minute he bolted through and into his town ignoring any danger and smoke blocking the path.

*Smoke clears and Lock is revealed to be stood in front of his house*

He found his home shattered completely from the side with blood and all sorts sprayed across the walls.

With heavy adrenaline kicking in, Lock plowed through the rubble managing to single handedly push big wall peices up and over.

The more rubble Lock uplifted, the more blood was revealed.

Lock now absolutely furious and broke through the last wall piece which was the biggest one yet with his bare first, breaking it in half.

*Wall collapses*

*Dust and smoke fills the room*

Lock now having reached his destination looked down on the brutal fate of his younger brother and the orphan boy.

His eyes glared into the bodies of both.

*Scenary of Lock looking down with his face shadowed and his eyes giving off a glowing tint*

Lock now acting strangely calm, moves over to the body of Kennen.

With one hand, he lifts up the rubble which Kennen was crushed under and tosses it aside.

"You're far from saving"

Loyd then moves over to his brother Loyd and checks for his pulse.

He picks up Loyd and places him on his back.

******************************

"A strange shadow has entered the premises"

"Kill that too"

"...It was too fast to track"

"Too fast!?"

"...."

*Strange figures have a conversation*

Lock ran away from his town with an unreadable expression and speed.

*5 minutes later*

*Setting of a new place appears*

Ding!

*Door opens to a different style of interior housing*

"Well who do we have here?" Inquired an unkown figure

*Scene of Lock in what seemed like a shop holding his brother*

"Estimate your final results" Lock spoke whilst placing down Loyd on a large unusual looking asset.

"Well aren't you a different one?" Figure smirks

"Answer the question"

Lock glared at the figure

"Oh my! quite the scary one indeed"

The face of the voice was still hidden behind shadows

"I'm not completely sure but I'm pretty certain I can do the job"

Lock tossed a bag full of gold coins to the figure.

"Save him, nothing else"

"I'll see" Figure replies

*Door is opened by Lock*

"One week and that's it" Lock muttered as he left the unnamed shop.

*Inside room is shown with strange assets covered*

The figure pulls out a pack and lights a cigarette.

"One week huh? Not had a request like that in ages" Figure smiles slowly whilst puffing out the smoke.

*A sudden huge distorted shadow then appears behind the figure*

*******************************

Lock had mysteriously bought Loyd to a strange looking town completely different to his own.

*Scenary of a huge metal gate with unkown symbols on it*

By simply looking at the gate, anyone could tell this place was completely different and more advanced in all ways.

*Scenary of large banner displaying three badges and text underneath saying 'Alliances'*

*Lock disappears into the distance*

"You're telling me YOU DIDN'T CATCH THAT THING!?"

"I told you, it's too hard to handle"

"SILENCE!"

"....."

*Strange figure's conversation*

*******************************

Meanwhile in Loyd's hometown.

*The perspective of a huge beefy man appears stood towering over some townsfolk*

The strange tall man held a weird looking sword.

"PLEASE DON'T KILL US, WE BEG OF YOU!"

*Heads of 2 townsfolk fly off*

An evil grin appears on the man's face.

He then headed towards some broken houses which caved in enough space to fit in around 10 people.

With one swing of his arm, he broke off the entire side and roof of the mini shelter.

His arms were covered in some strange protection.

He stomped through demolishing everything and grabbed a young boy who was curled up hiding by the throat.

"AHHHHHHHH, THEY'VE FOUND US" screamed the people who were inside.

"WHAT DO THEY WANT FROM US"

*Kid's head is violently ripped off*

All of them froze in fear.

The man then smiles and pulls out his sword again.

*Suddenly, a shockwave of a presence emerges*

A calm yet deadly presence spikes the atmosphere.

A shadow forms behind the smoke of the beefy man.

Everyone turned their attention to this figure forgetting that they were just facing danger a second ago.

"You..."

"Bastard with those modified arms..."

Groaned a deep unshaken voice.

The expression on the man with the sword changed.

He seemed slightly fearful now and hesitantly asked:

"And what the hell are you?"

"....."

*The mysterious figure flashes something bright*

"I'll show you what I am"

Suddenly the left arm of the man falls onto the floor.

"WHAT THE-

The man was shocked to the bone.

Just a minute ago, he was enjoying his time killing and overpowering people weaker than him.

But now the roles have reversed and he was completely overpowered within seconds.

As he trembled in shock looking at his fallen arm in disbelief, the smoke starts to clear up.

He slowly turned around and faced the direction of the figure.

*Face of new figure is revealed slowly after smokescreen fades away*

An eerie blank expression appears on an equally tall but skinny man with a menacing presence.

His right eye was dark red and he had deep black scars covering half of his face.
