Chapter 1

"Have u got it set?"

"Yes, it's all done"

"Now let us leave"

"This better work completely with no faults"

"....."

*Strange figures converse in an unkown conversation*

A huge shockwave blazes through multiple towns with a slight hint of sound

But every neighbouring townsfolk brushes it off as heavy wind.

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

Kennen, a 9 year old orphan left stranded in the rubble of his hometown Bham.

His lifeless eyes looked nowhere but the direction of his collapsed home.

Kennen barely clinging onto his life, waits for death to take him from misery.

"mum.., help.." he barely muttered in his dying voice.

His silent cries reached only the empty void of his own mind.

Never to be heard by anyone.

He extended out his only hand slowly with all the energy he had left into the night sky... waiting for what seemed an eternity for something to happen.

His arm dropped and his head lowered.

His life, now what seemed like it was finally coming to an end, dropped to the floor and layed his head sideways.

'I'm going to die..'

That was the only thought occupied in his mind.

"What the hell happened here" muttered a strange figure with absolute shock

All of a sudden, from the depths of darkness, appeared a strong light piercing through, reaching even the corners of where he layed crushed under debris and rubble.

"Is anyone even alive here" shivered the figure.

The light shun across to the position where Kennen layed for what seemed like certain death.

"Hello?"

"Is anyone there?" yelled a voice

Kennen tried hard to reply back but had no energy to do so.

Then the light slowly started getting closer and closer, flashing brightly at all directions like a lighthouse.

Kennen couldn't see anything expect a figure and a light.

Distant yells turned to audible footsteps as the figure came closer towards Kennen.

And now stood before Kennen, a light was shun at his face.

The figure of a young boy who looked about the same age stood before him.

"Hey, are you alright!?" the boy asked

"I'm fin-"

Suddenly Kennen passed out completely.

The boy frantically pulled kennen out the rubble he was trapped under.

He picked him up and placed him on his back.

He used all his strength and might and ran as fast as he could.

The night grew darker and darker to the point where it seemed like an endless void.

But this didn't stop this new figure.

Huffing and puffing, he strengethed his grip around Kennen and carried him as far as safety was located.

The night was cold, empty and silently scary.

Slowly but steadily, he carried on into the distance further and further away from where Kennen was found hidden in the night.

*Shadow near the broken houses dissapears*

....

Next morning:

*Unknown distorted shadow appears in the background*

*Scene of human carcasses dumped into a pile appears*

Kennen slowly opened his eyes to come across a roof of a home.

He directed his gaze to the right then left, pondering about his current whereabouts.

"You're finally awake"

Kennen looked over to the direction of the voice.

He witnessed before him the face of the boy who saved him last night.

He was a bit taller than himself, less boney and had a healthy looking body compared to Kennen.

But it was still evident that he was also a teenager.

His hair was brown, unbrushed and his eyes were blue.

He then grabbed a chair placing it next to the bed where Kennen was resting.

*Unknown scenary of a murky forest appears*

*Figure of a man walking through the woods appears*

"Hey, how are you feeling?"

*Setting changes back to Loyd's home*

"Wait, where am i..?" he muttered in broken words

"Wait, you're still hurt, don't talk"

"..But to answer your question, you're at my house"

Kennen looked around the house for a couple of seconds then asked him for his name.

"My name is Loyd, and I am the one who saved you last night"...

*Scene ends with Loyd smiling*
