Garret Reed

When Vincent opened his eyes he was not in his body, Rather he was kneeling in front of a handsome man with jet black hair. He wore old-looking clothing that fit him well, His eyes were blood-red as he spoke. "So this is the new race huh? A ghoul transformation went wrong…" He spoke in a stern voice, "Head up" The man kneeling rose his head.

Dark brown, his eyes were filled with horror and hatred, "Zombie… many people thought your kind was just a myth" He notice the anger in the man kneeling and asked, "Do you hate me?" The man kneeling lost his cool as he yelled, "60 DAYS IN THE CELLAR!? BEING TESTED ON EVERY SINGLE DAY!" He raised his hands and he violently shook. Tears fell from his eyes, "O what I would do to see my family… just one more time" The handsome man sneered, "Look at you. You've become something greater than Human and you wish to go back to your pathetic race?" He did a loud humph and prepared to leave. But the man's kneeling anger grew to great eyes. In seconds he dashed in front of the man planning to do a finishing blow.

The handsome man's eyes grew more blood red and he spoke one word, "Kneel." The man who tried to attack fell to his knees immediately, And with Vincent witnessing his point of view he felt oppressed as if whatever that handsome man said was law. "Guards! Take him away" A bunch of guards came in and carried him to a deep shelter, When they arrived they threw him there with no remorse. The man sat there crying for minutes, And that's when Vincent left his body flying over him watching.

The man stopped and looked directly at Vincent, "My descendant…" He stood up and wiped his tears as he grabbed Vincent's arm. A system notification popped up, But he did not have the time to look at it as he was pondering what the man meant by, 'My descendant'. As the man grabbed his hands he felt like he was learning a new skill, [ Cursed Blood ] "What you just saw was one of my many memories, Listen here. You will inherit the sacred skill of the 8th Family. Compared to the other families it is seen as useless… but it has a whole different meaning."

He stared straight at Vincent as he began to fade, "Find Zeron Ree, He has the map" And when the man began to fade quicker, So many questions were running through Vincent's head, 'Map? Descendant? There's more of us? What is my ancestor??' Before The man faded away Vincent was able to ask one question. "Who are you?" The Man smiled, "Garret Reed".

Vincent opened his eyes slowly, and when he looked around he noticed that the book was gone, not a single trace. He opened his system and was surprised, "So that memory was not a dream? Garret Reed… funny we have the same surname" He checked out his system.

Vincent wanted to check out what the skill points meant and do but that's when he suddenly remembered something. He looked at his watch and screamed '30 MINUTES!' He stood up to his knees and suddenly ran at top speeds hoping and praying to reach the shelter in time.

He exited the cave and ran, he took a slight glimpse at the Crab who was still bathing in the sunlight, and noticed indeed that it got bigger. But he did not have time to worry that he had to make it to a shelter in time or he would fail. Running at top speed Vincent was able to make it to a shelter nearby, It was very small but Vincent was able to fit in easily.
