The Mark

The Hunter

Mark Three:

Friday, Night

Another day for me and my team to hunt down those Reapers, and it seems to us they getting more and more as the day goes by. As if, someone is trying to mess up the innocence life of the humans living here in the Apple City.

"Another tough day." I heard Rafa said next to me.

Rafa Nox my best friend and a hunter too, same as me, he is our leader in our team. While, I'm, Chisuke Aviaq, is his right hand although most of the time, I move on my own. I am more of observant rather than to engage to a battle without looking at it if I'll win or not. And today is the same... not until something happens.

"At your nine o'clock." We both heard Euna speaks which we both look at.

Euna Freyja Rafa's fiancé and a hunter too, our third member, she's quiet aloof and snobbish to the other team but when it comes to us. She will gladly hang up and will just silently play with when we were a child that made her our last member.

"A human..." Rafa said.

Is she an idiot? Doesn't she know that, that place nestle in there? Or she just wants to be there food.

"She'll be the next target." Rafa commented and we all see the large horde lurking around the dark street of the District Five. They already surround the lady who's walking without fear, and anytime they are ready to attack and devour her blood.

At the back alley

I am so, so scared and my heart almost jumps out of my chest while all my blood draws out of my body. My face was too pale though the dark sky above me looks bright because of the stars that shown above.

How wonderful it can be if only I'm looking at it... normally?

"Hey!" I heard this rough and tough voice called out my attention. "How long are you going to stare at the night sky as if you aren't in danger?" he asked irritably and that the time I realize, he was my savior.

I slowly look at him and when I see his eyes, I got more scared. The color of his eyes is crimson red and those who have it are the well-known Vampires in our city.

"Oh, God!" I couldn't help not to say.

"You weaklings!" he exclaimed. "I am no God!"

"I... I know..." I said even though I'm trembling in fear.

"Of all places, you've choose to come here. Are you that eager to die!" he madly stated, yet I couldn't understand what he was saying because all I know, I'm beginning to lose my senses and slowly darkness envelop me.

Meanwhile...

"Suk!" I heard Rafa calling me, in my nickname short for Chisuke, over my earphone.
