Far Off Memories

Part 1: Forgotten Potential. Prologue

(POV: ???)

          How do I start..? Well, I don't really think my life is something interesting or something to be intrigued about. In fact, I barely even remember my actual family and when I realized I existed.. All that was left from my parents is only bad memories.. They fought a lot, mom especially... Dad always came home tired and overwhelmed with work so badly that I had fear he might faint. I rarely spoke with mom closely, I mostly asked her what's wrong with dad, and she wasn't satisfied with it.. Then the fights began to worsen... And one day, I woke up on the streets...in a box. Without thinking, I began running around and asking everyone if they had seen my parents, but no one responded positively.. For days, I searched appropriate food, but effortlessly.. However, somewhere in October of 1952...

(Author's POV)

          The soul who this story is going to be about runs into a dark alley, thinking he heard or saw some kind of dark figure stalking him. The little boy had black-to-dark-puple hair with orange streaks, sunset-coloured eyes and a bit tanned skin. His white horns were fancily shaped like a human would imagine a succubus' horns. His fluffy little ears were a mix of wolf and cat-like ears. His clothes were dirty and a bit torn, and he was overall skinny due to starving for days. The little boy slowed down and shouted "O-Oiya(Hello)? Oto tama(Who's there)?" He stopped as soon as he heard a loud crash-landing and squeaked "O-Oto tama?!" "Eto on(Is that him)?" A voice questioned nearby and the other responded "Famisse(Precisely). Get him!" Before the little boy could react, he was lifted and squeezed from the back by a tall man with dark armor.. He wore a helmet to mask his face. The little boy struggled "HEEELP-!" "Silence, boy. We're not going to hurt you. We just need to take you with us" Another armored and helmeted man calmly said, holding a rifle. The little boy shook his head in fear and screamed "STAY AWAY FROM ME!!" Then the two armored men infront of him flew away and harshly hit the wall. The one holding him almost fell back "CHARE(Shit)! He's too strong for a kid like him!" "Ugh, that's exactly why we searched for him! His Shionhō sensitivity is a whole other le-!" As the two armored men stood up, one of them was interrupted by a confident and piercing female voice coming from above "HAHA, THERE THEY ARE!".
          In a second, a heavily armored woman who seemed to be a Dragon hybrid turned on her swords known as Plasmablades and stabbed the two dark-armored men from the back and knocked them down. The other one holding the little boy held a gun to the child's head "If you step any closer, I'll shoot this child!" The woman laughs "Oh, I don't even have to! Diego, NOW!" Then the little boy felt the grip around him soften.. The last dark-armored man's head was noiselessly chopped off and knocked down along with the boy. Then he was approached and picked up by a man who had short and choppy black-to-sea-wave hair with lighter streaks, fluffy and pointy jewelled ears, double horns, sea-wave-coloured eyes and pale skin. His facial markings mostly looked like tattoos. Presumably, it was the one who the Dragon hybrid woman yelled out to, Diego "Well, just in time before any more of them could get you. To yovu ima, bun(What's your name, boy)?" "U-Uhh... Jagged..-" "WOOOOHOOOO! We caught Jagged Neiroking himself, HAHA!" The Dragon hybrid woman excitedly jumped and then Diego yelled at her "ZATNI(Shut up) AKANE!" Jagged looked at Diego and then at Akane "What's going on..? Where you going to take me..?" "Ah, you see, we've got a mission from Magister Dread-Demon to find the kid on the posters." Akane explained and took a poster depicting Jagged himself "You're that kid, Jagged. We're here to take you for ourselves so the Fectrix would have no chances of rising in power." Jagged was terrified, but did not understand the majority of the topic. The only thing he understood is that the men trying to kidnap him were called The Fectrix.. Diego scoffed "Akane, you seriously thought a 5-year-old would understand this?" "I mean- at least he knows why they needed him-" "Ugh, whatevs. You're coming with us now, Jagged. You will be safe with us." Diego activated his jetpack by using the Shionhō and so did Akane. They all flew to where they left their spaceship. Jagged held on tightly to Diego and asked "Where are we going..?" "To your new home. The Bounty Hunting Training Corps".

(POV: Jagged Neiroking)

         I can freely say that...this was my first ever happiest childhood memory I won't be able to forget... That's when I realized my life would be different. Far away from the dark corners and constant yelling.. Along with the mother's pointless anger..
         My name is Jagged Neiroking. And what happens next, you'll see for yourself. A total rollercoaster at times..
