Y/N had two choices, get rid of the wanderer and return back to HQ or die right then and there. In all her days of fighting wanderers, she had encountered many instances that placed her in a fight or flight situation.

Considering the amount of times she chose flight, she figured this time she'd face the shit in front of her whether it meant dying or not. The cuts on her face had begun to bleed staining her mud covered skin.

Y/N remembered the words of her captain:

"Return in one peace, No matter the cost"

In the open, Y/N considered herself a bad bitch who wanted to live on the edge, after all, she only had little time to live. Why not just end it immediately and be killed by this wanderer. She chuckled and wiped away the blood that had seeped into her eyes.

"Well damn...". Y/N held her gun tightly and rose to her feet.

"Let's see who dies first...". She aimed the gun at the monster and began shooting at it rapidly while dodging it's counterattacks.

She sprinted to the side as the wanderer chased after her, her grunts echoing the forest with every strained move. The monster was bigger than her, standing over 8 or 9 feet tall, but there was no ounce of fear on her face, atleast none that she displayed whenever she worked. Her knees wobbled whenever she dodged the wanderers attack, her heart pounded violently in her chest and the unbearable ringing in her ears. She was frightened for her life.

Her doctors had told her that with her heart disease there was a very high chance she'd pass early. Y/N didn't want to die, she still had a lot of things she wanted to do with her lonely life.

"You fucking monster...". She said as she crashed to her knees, blood dripping down the side of her head. The wanderer stood in a spot for a few seconds then fell to the ground with a loud thud. It fell before Y/N who had her face to the ground and her fingers buried in the dirt.

The monster disintegrated into dust leaving behind the sole purpose of killing it in the first place. There was a subtle chuckle that echoed the forest. It caught Y/N's attention but she chose to ignore it, blaming the sound on her concussed state. Slowly, she crawled over to the gem and took it in her hand.

"Guess who's dead?..." She whispered to the rock and got up , her hand occasionally going to her head. Her heart beating at a very abnormal pace, it caused her immense pain, painful but bearable. Y/N made her way out of the forest, battered and bruised with a satisfied smile on her face, not noticing the glowing orbs that stared at her in the shadows, impressed by the way she had handled the monster.

*CAW CAW CAW*

The stinging pain in her head was awoken by the sudden bird noises. She opened her eyes slowly, pain surging through her form. Y/N could barely remember anything before the fight with the wanderer. Right now, she was back home still in her hunter uniform, the protocore sat on the nightstand beside her. She glanced at it and rolled her eyes, closing them once more.

*CAW CAW CAW*

"Shut the fuck up!." She shouted, turning her head to the window. Immediately regretting her choices when the pounding started. Y/N sat up and groaned burying her face in her palms. She squinted her eyes and took one more look at her window, a crow perched on one of the potted plants.

"What the fuck?..." she asked herself. Y/N tilted her head to the side making eye contact with the bird who also tilted it's head. She rolled her eyes and decided to ignore it. Groaning once more she looked at the white pillow already coated with blood.

A few seconds passed after staring hard at the pillows she decided to wash them as she took a bath wanting the mixture of mud and filth off her as soon as possible.
