I am the Demon Hunter

Night 3

" alright now..... Mix in the esscence of ivy, with the.... root of Valandra and slime.... of Eel. " I say weakly pointing to each item.

Evon grabs each item and pours them into the pot stirring it together. It becomes a bright blue color then slowly works to turn white.

" it's done... I think." He says wiping his forehead.

" let... Let me smell it." I reply holding out my hand.

He grabs a small vial and pours in a small amount then hands it to me. I bring it to my nose. I sniff it and pull my head away thinking, then smell it once more, nodding my head.

" it's good." I say.

I push myself up and sit on the couch.
I take the bandage off and bubbles of pus have started working their way onto the wound. I pour the cream onto my wound and then rub it , in gritting my teeth to bare the pain.

Evon grabs the bandages and wraps my arm. He grabs the vial from me and fills it again.

" you need to drink it, right? " he asks.

" not yet. Grab the vial of feathers i took from the demon. "

He runs over to where my bag sits and rummages through it finding the vial. Its nearly empty with only a small feather remaining.

He shakes the vial till it falls out and then runs back to me . He hands it to me and i place it into the vial. The feather disintegrates and then I take the vial to my mouth and drink it down.

I cough after drinking it and the bad taste remains stuck like wax in my mouth.

" i should be fine now. "

I look down at the wound and i can already tell its healing as the bandage is not burrning away and the stinging sensation has faded.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That night.....

I eat some meat and bread that Evon bought for me.
" you didn't have to. I was fine." I say, irritated
" you need your strength." He says with a firm tone.

I huff but continue eating the bread and meat. When i finish i change my bandages and go to my room to dress.
Then suddenly the door swings open and Evon walks in.

" HEY! Have you no decency?! get out!! I say throwing my bag at him, my face as red as a tomato.

"Sorry! " he runs out and closes the door. I finish dressing and walk out. I retrieve my bag from the ground.
" what was so important that you needed to burst in?"

Evon nods to his left. I look over and a tall woman stands in the middle of the room. She has short blond hair pulled into a ponytail, blue eyes and she wears black leather armor and has a two swords attacked to her back. I noticed her immediatly. Her name was Maya. She was one of the other most well known demon hunters. I remember when i had first met her. When i first became part of The Organisation.

Flashback....
A few hours after the death of my parents, two men and a woman arrived. They wore leather armor, hoods which concealed most of their faces and all had weapons of variety. They placed cloths over the bodies of my dead parents and the woman guided me out.

She helped me onto the horse and we rode for days. Everytime we stopped they asked me if i wanted to eat or drink but my mind was frozen in time. Even when i tried to hold a piece of bread, it would just fall from my hands. I couldn't think about anything else but my deceased parents. When we slowed to a gallop i forced myself to look up and a looming castle stood before me. The giant gate opened up and we rode inside.

We hopped off the horses and a few people led the horses away, to a barn i guessed. We walked inside and the castle was bustling. Servants walked around carrying baskets of clothing, trays of food, and assorted items. Some people sat polishing weapons and others practiced fighting in the room next door.

The woman leads me to a door and stands there gesturing me to go inside. I open the door and walk in. A large wooden table sits in the middle of the room and three women and four men stand inside talking amongst themselves.

One of the women looks up at me. She has short blond hair, eyes that are as blue as the ocean and wears leather armor. She taps her hand on another woman's shoulder.

This woman looks up at me. She has brown eyes, long brown hair and is tanned and wears the same leather armor.

" Leave us. " the brown haired woman says to the people.

Once the room has cleared the brown haired woman and the blond remain along with a man with short black hair.

" Hello Rize. I'm Kara. This is Maya and Torez. " The woman says pointing to Maya and then Torez.

" who are you?" I ask quietly.

" We are the DHO. Demon Hunter Organisation. Your father and mother were two very important people here and their death has saddened us deeply. Now we feel that it is your time to take your place. Your parents always planned to teach you and have you join but unfortunately with their deaths we have decided it would be good to have you join now. "

" Why?" I say so quietly it is like a whisper.

" why what?" Kara replies.

" Why were they killed?! My parents were good people! I dont understand!"

" Being a demon hunter comes with many responsibilities, one included is risking your life to fight. To protect. Your parents died to protect you."

I am silent for a while, but even though i sit there, contemplating my choice, in my heart, i know that i want to do this.

" I'll join. On one condition."

" what is that?"

" I will not be bound to hunt a single demon. I am going to avenge my parents. I will kill those demons who murdered my parents, and nobody is going to stop me. "

Kara stands listening and for a second i think she might say no but then she nods her head.

" Good. You have drive. Its what we need. You are now officially a Demon Hunter."

I stand and i dont feel fear. Or sadness or even happy. I feel vengeful and i know exactly what i want. It's my time to fulfill my promise. To avenge my parents.

A/n hope you enjoyed!! Thanks for reading!!!
