Reaching Out

A boy left all alone in the world after being abandoned by his mother in a poor clan that treated him harshly because he started showing signs of being different from other kids and the people around him. With him being ostracized more and more he became less and less of the cheerful young kid he use to be until eventually turning discreet and mute around others in hopes that they would stop being scared of him. Though that plan never worked out for him and, in the end he was left to strive on his own as best as he could in the environment he was left in. He explored the towns library and any books he could find in his Clan even if they were useless. Years on years of doing such things eventually led him into stumbling across a book that would help push him towards the thing he wanted the most. "The Basic Guide To The Astral Path" This book may not of been special to anyone in the long run but, it was to him because, it was his new beginning. With this new path available to him would he be able to push through all the obstacles and hardships waiting for him or in the end will he stumble and fall? Or will people be there to catch him if he does once again?

"Then you'll die."

Watching the woman walk up to him, he was slightly surprised yet relieved at the same time. "At least It's not the man, He might be a tough one to beat." The woman however only seemed to have sneak tactics so even if she was strong it wasn't too big a deal. Coming to that conclusion Hunter smiled a bit confidently while he ordered his men to attack the back group and stall while he dealt with her in the meantime. "Deal with the rest and don't disappoint me or else." Clasping his hands he summoned a short sword made of pure purple liquid that was the length of his arm. Grasping its hilt he felt a slight sting attack his hand but he long been used to the acidic energy that dripped off the blade.

"Poison Element."

"Oh, good eye, won't help much though."

"I know."

Staring at his purple blade she shivered at the damage some higher level people were able to do with such a thing as she looked back at Relia. "No wonder...poor thing, well whatever I just need to beat him. Though how should I go about it?" Thinking to herself she tried to come up with some way to fight before it hit her. "Ah, that would work." It was something she had always used to do back in the days when she used to fight but it should be useful for this as well. Making sure Eli and the rest were okay, Mel turned around summoning a long silver bow shaped in a heart that was the size of her body. "Hello, old friend." Watching it shine in the light as if it was greeting her she summoned an arrow made entirely out of steel and nocked it while she generated the Astral Energy she needed.

"Let's see if I've still got it." Watching hunter charge at her she fired an arrow as he got up in her face and slashed at her. Swiping he swatted an arrow made of pure steel out of the way with his bare hands before slashing at Mel unfortunately he only met empty air as he heard another arrow coming from behind him. "..?" Spinning around he continued his slash knocking the second arrow out of the air just to see Mel behind him. "Such speed." Not able to think too much about it with the amount of distance between them, more arrows flew at him at full speed and power this time around. Making sure his hand was working after that last arrow he summoned a shield on his arm as he charged forward blocking them with his Defensive Ability from his ring. It was nothing special or fancy like some others could be but it was perfect for this situation and that's all that mattered.

"Of course he does." Firing one last arrow she tried to aim it towards his legs as he appeared in front of her again. Blocking arrow after arrow he made sure to keep track of all them to make sure none were going for his blind spot as he approached. Once again he slashed down only to meet air though. "What...I didn't even see a blur." This time he was making sure he paid max attention while attacking but she still managed to escape. "Is it really speed?" With that thought crossing his mind an arrow stabbed his shoulder. "Fuck." Looking at his shoulder he ignored the pain as he grabbed it and ripped it out. He had been surrounded by pain his whole life so one little arrow wasn't much especially with his body.

Looking up at Mel as she smiled while holding her bow a flick of frustration flashed by him for a quick second before disappearing. "I just need one good hit." The way she fought was incredibly annoying, Constantly firing arrows then disappearing but if he got one hit the poison should be able to deal with her. "Hopefully, Maybe I should get some help after all." Looking out of the corner of his eye he tried to see the situation going on with his men but all he saw was them constantly getting tossed around by the old man. "Dammit, useless." With no help coming from them or any of the clan leaders he was in for a tough fight. "We need Relia." But beating someone who was ranged without some form of a ranged attack himself wasn't easy however he wasn't a quitter, the amount of stubborn peoples will he'd broken in his life wasn't for show.

Watching Mel's fight from afar Relia felt her blood turning cold as she held Tearia trying to stay as far away from everything as possible while her body shivered constantly. "Calm down girl." "I can't." Seeing the way she was reacting the woman knew it wasn't any different then before as she sighed. "If only I could help....." That was only a small want though, for now she just wanted the girl to calm down and take care of her friend while the other two protected her. "Look at your friend Tearia and help her then if you can't calm down. She needs you right now." ".....Okay." Looking at Tearia in her hands she saw she was still conscious somehow while she looked up at her.

"Rose?"

"Tearia..."

Looking at all the marks covering each other's bodies both girls winced at the sight of each other. It had been so long since Tearia had last seen rose yet somehow she looked so different then she remembered. "Or maybe I'm just going crazy...." Tearia was already struggling to stay awake as it was, so it was definitely a possibility but the feeling of warmth she felt from rose wasn't fake in the slightest.

""How have you been lately?""

Both asking the same question at the same time Relia smiled as she felt her body slightly calm down forgetting about Hunter. "Tearia...I've missed you." She was her only friend she managed to make throughout her short life but she was a surprisingly good one even if she could be a little high and mighty at times. In that moment though surrounded by fighting both of them smiled at each other like nothing was wrong in the world even though it pained both to do so. "Ow." Feeling pain run through her, Tearia wanted to take a nap but feeling Rose's body shake and the look of fear on her face she knew it wasn't the time just yet.

"Did you want to talk to me?"

Barely getting that out Tearia struggled to speak as the fights continued on.
