Eyeshine

Chapter 1

 17 years laters 

The summer had finally drifted in on the colony, people began to open there shops and all of the hunters began to open there business and get to work in the forest and vallies. 

And as the sun began to rise all you heard the sound of metal striking soon to be cold hard precious steel.

BANG BANG BANG. 

Mr. Reichter had rubbed his bald head and felt the sweat on his face fall to the musty dirt. he had been work on the iron anvil for over an hour and his old heart couldn't take it. As he got himself sitauted he sat himself down and noticed a large sack on the table that stood next to the forge. 

He just placed his old self  on the bench and rested himself. He was a part time lawyer but found  the work to be quite dull at times. 

But as he sat down he wandered where was his apprentice? 

                                                                                           ******* 

In the valley filled with clovers and daisies a loud gunshot had cracked through the air along with the sound of a wild boar squealing with rage. 

It was running with a weight of 1,800 pounds of pure muscle with the hooded rider and his friesian horse galloping. In an instant the rider pulled on the reigns and his steed came to a complete halt with the boar still going north into the valley 

The hunter had gotten off of his horse and had and cocked his rifle. To follow he gave his steed a slap on the rear and it bolted back to the colony village. 

The hunter just became the hunted. The man had heard the boars bloodcurling cry to the East as he kneeled on one knee. He heard the boars hoofs gallop as it circled him. 

He turned to the direction of the sound and saw the boars steeming red eyes and blood stained tusk from it's last meal. The hunted took his rifle and had aimed at the boar right between it's eye and waited knowing that every second was twenty feet. At the range of thirty feet he fired, 

Missed.

Twenty feet, fired

Missed.

Ten feet, the hunted dodged and taking aim fired

BLAM!! 

                                                                                 ******

Reichter sat in his living room reading his favorite novel while hearing the children outside cry and shout as a large shadow of a horse filled his screen windows. 

"Mr. Malik, Mr. Malik," The children cried to the hooded man. Reichter had bolted from his lounge chair and had cried out,"DOOR OPEN!" The door slid open at fast pace and he saw friesar horse turning into the smithing house. 

Reichtar just left to the stables wearing nothing but his black pajams and green longsleeve. 

As he closed the doors he noticed the large bag. "Well did you get what you need or something better." 

The strange man had stood up close to old man and had instantly gave him bear hug. 

"Both actually" the man said with deep voice. Knocking the mans hoodie off Reichter had seen those glowing eyes that he raised from a little boy. "Unhand me you large child!"

Malik had dropped the old man had placed the cloak on the rack. "I got a nice boar for the whole colony to have. This could last us for the whole winter."

"Is that the beast that crippled old man Barts beagle?","Yep."

The dark skin boy had threw the beast on the table on had pulled out his hunting knife. 

"Well make sure you give that meat to the sargeants supply, also I think you may have time to finish that old project of yours," Reichter had nodded to the sack that layed under the bag.

"OH yeah, I'll finish it tonight. You goin' somewhere?","Yes just to the MP Office to pick up some old files it may take the entire day. Also the weather station said that theres going to be rain today so make sure you secure the hatches alright." Malik had smiled. "Yes sir","You know you remind me so much your father." Malik smile had turn straight as he heard those words. "Thanks."

Reichter had managed to put a smile back on his face. "Well I'm going to change and I'm heading out."
