(Y/N)'s POV

I was waiting for Lazarus and Ella at the edge of The Red Forest. I looked at the trees. The leeves were red, hence the name.  

(Y/N)'s mind: Why is it always snowing here? It's like this forest is cursed.

???: (Y/N)!

I heard someone calling for me. I turned around and saw Lazarus. My eyes widened.

Lazarus: Did you wait for long?

He was lacking any sort of clothing above his waist. The only fabric was some boxing tape on his fists.

(Y/N): Umm... i just came here...

Lazarus: That's great then! We didn't want to keep you waiting.

(Y/N): Why are you naked?

Lazarus: Is it a problem?

(Y/N): Well, no, but it's snowing. How come you aren't cold?

Lazarus: Ahh, you see, the thrill of the hunt keeps me warm. My blood is boiling.

I blinked a few times.

(Y/N): If you say so. Where's Ella by the way?

He pointed towards a top of a tree. Ella was standing there. I waved at her and she waved back.

(Y/N): When did she get there?

Lazarus: I dunno... She's super sneaky. And she always manages to steal my cookies without me noticing.

I chuckled.

(Y/N): What a lady...

Lazarus: What?

(Y/N): What?

Lazarus: What did you say?

(Y/N): I asked you if you want to go.

Lazarus: Yeah, we're burning daylight. Did you bring your hatchets? Ella didn't stop talking about wanting to see you use them.

I pulled out a hatchet.

Lazarus: Nice. This could do some serious damage.

I nodded and we entered the forest. Ella was watching from above.

Sophia's POV

I was watching from a bush how my beloved entered the forest along with that fat brute. His bitch sister was jumping from tree to tree. 

Sophia's mind: It'll be hard to catch her like that. 

I pulled out my knife.

Sophia: I have only one shot. I have to use it wisely. I started following them from a distance.

(Y/N)'s POV

We were walking slowly and talking. Ella was watching us.

Lazarus: So, what happened to your parents?

(Y/N): They both died in this forest. A bounty hunter came here and shot them both.

Lazarus: A bounty hunter? As in...?

(Y/N): They weren't criminals if you're asking this. Many reports for missing people came from this forest and... i guess they were just on the wrong place at the wrong time.

Ella: Nice going, Laz. Why don't you ask him if he burried them himself as well?

Lazarus: Damn... Forgive me. I didn't know.

(Y/N): It's ok. I often go on their graves to talk to them. But it's a one-way conversation only.

They kept silent. My ear twitched. I threw my hatchet at the direction of the noise and killed a rabbit.
