(Y/n's POV)

"How is a weakling like you here? Shouldn't you be in some foster home playing with dolls?" A guard snickered, him and his fellow guards menicingly chuckled to themselves. I stayed quiet, looked down, and continued to walk to my cell. "HEY! I'm talking to you, you pathetic worm!" He boasted shoving me forward, I almost loose my balance, but kept straight. I still don't say a thing, he seemed to get more annoyed, but as we nered my cell he seemed to smirk. The guards opened my cell and I walked in. "Hey boys, wanna have some 'fun~'?" He said and they seemed to catch on and smirked with him, "Yeah, I've been needing a good punching bag" said one of them and they walked up to me with their sleeves rolled up and their hands in fists.

------------------------------------------

I groaned and held my head in pain as I woke up. I looked around confused until I remember what happened and frantically checked myself. I groaned as I felt a pain in my side and head, I looked to see a big gash in my side and I felt a scratch and bump on the side of my head. I frowned knowing that it would take one to two days to heal just by seeing how deep and big it the gash was, and with the head wound, probably 15 minutes seeing as it wasn't that bad disspite being hit against a rock. I sighed and got up slowly, holding onto a tree and walked forward a few steps, getting ahold of myself. I looked up and saw that I was in the outskirts of a village. I grabbed my stuff and walked out of some back yard and onto the streets. The streets and overall village looked barren, like it went through an apocolypse.

I started walking around a little and found myself at a cemetary. I looked around and at one grave I saw a tiny doll sitting on the tomb. I gave a melencoly smile and picked up the doll, petting its hair and pulled it closer to gently hug it close. As I went to set it back down I heard howling and snarling of an unknown creature. I accidentally dropped the doll and went to run, but some beast jumped in front of me. I looked at it and it looked like a person, but the skin looked cold and gray, teeth like a sharks sharp and pointy, the body was hairy and disfigured, and the eyes hollow and filled with hunger.

I ran as fast as I could. I tried to hold in the pain of my injuries. I know I could control any animal at will, but this was knew. I for sure wasn't gonna test it out....

I ran and ran until I offically lost them. I breathed and noticed I was in a different area of the village. It looked more ancient, more.. like a worship area. "Ah! Hello there! I see you just ran in with some of the towns beasts, haven't you?" I turn around to see a jolly plump man sitting in a cart filled with goods and treasures. "W-who are you?" I said warilly, taking a cautious step to the man. "OH! Where are my manners? I'm Duke! What about you my fair lady?" He said with a jolly smile, he seems to be a kind man to trust. "Y/n" I walked a little closer to where I was a few feet away from him. He gave one glance a chuckled to himself and said "Well by the looks of it, you aren't any ordinary girl, my lady. Say what might you be? Because you are far beyond those houndish beasts lurking around here!". I rose a brow until I realised he had just noticed my unnatural appearance just from looking at my eyes and teeth. I shrugged "I'm just as human as you are, sir".

His smile widened and nodded "Of coarse, madamoiselle". He looked down at my wounds and motioned towards them "I see you are hurt, come, I have just the thing you need, it's on me!" and grabbed a bottle of some liquid. I walked up to him and grabbed it, I opened it and smelled it. It wasn't something that I reconised, Ilooked towards him and he motioned to put it on the wound. I did as told and my wound seem to heal right before my eyes, quicker than my regeneration as it seems to just vanish before my eyes leaving nothing, but a thin scar. He seemed to be only a little shocked at the rate of healing the liquid he gave me did. "Usually it takes a few longer seconds to heal a wound like that, but with you... Just in miliseconds to vanish... Very impressive" Duke seemed to mumble to himself, but loud enough to where I could hear too.

I nodded, then realised you had no idea where to go. "Say Duke? You don't seem to have a map do you?" I asked, he snapped his fingers "Ah, yes hold on a moment!" and looked through his pockets and handed me a map "Here you are, my lady!". I nodded and opened it and looked to see if there were any places that would be good to bunk in for awhlie. I nodded and looked up to Duke "Thank you! I'm sorry for the trouble!". He smiled widely and said "No worries, dear. I can't wait to see you again!". I then walked of to another part ot the village.

It was a more wide open area and some scraps could be seen lying around. I looked around and then saw something very unexspected. I saw a man a few feet away from me. He seemed to not notice me until I accidentally stepped on a piece of metal. He looked over and smirked "Why hello there, darlin'!" He said his hat covering his shaded eyes. He had a large hammer slung over his shoulder and a long trench coat, swaying at his leg. "And who might you be?" I asked in a monotone voice, but you could hear the intimidation in it. He chuckled and said "Why darlin'...-"

"I'm Heisenberg, Karl Heisenberg. One of the four lords of this land."
