WW360: The Mage Times

Past Promises

(Serry POV)
I finally reached the black market, I opened the rusty door bolted into the ground.
I jumped down onto the concrete, having to bend my knees.
I pulled out my sword, knowing thieves are very popular. I punched in the passcode into the second door, it shifted open.  I pushed inside....
Clanging noises stopped once I entered..
"Who's there?! Show yourselves cowards!"
"S-scarlet? Is that you? After all these years! I thought you died!"
A man with a..... Yellow mask tied to his face stepped out, wearing purple underclothes. Looked so much like his skin...
"Who's scarlet?"
"You are!.... Bitch you ran away from me after I told you I killed those people!"
"YOU KILLED PEOPLE?!"
"Scarlet stop acting like a dumbass, you remember me! You're just too scared!"
"My name is Serry!"
"Oh, now you change your name! Jesus Christ scarlet I-"
"I SAID I WAS'NT SCARLET!"
I pointed my sword out so the tip will place on his neck
"So I see you've learned to fight too, kitten~"
"Look! I don't know you the hell you are, and why you think I'm this scarlet person! So I'm  giving you a choice: leave me alone and carry on shopping, or I will kill you myself"
"Two can play at that game"
The man pulled out a knife and pushed my sword away from his neck, bring me into a position close to his body.
"Maybe a little kiss will help you remember"
"Don't touch me you asshole"
I kicked him in his spot, then ripping his mask from his face..... His face... burnt.. All red and black..Full white eyes... He must've gotten mutated from the bombs..
"You biiiitch...." He fell to the ground.
He got up, knife is his hand; walking toward me...
He backed me up to a corner, I couldn't escape my death....
I closed my eyes... Praying to Niku to bless and watch over my family... And Iven.
I heard a glass shatter, I looked and saw the man passed out at my feet next to a broken beer bottle.
"Are you okay Miss Serry?!"
The market owner ran up to me checking for bruises and cuts
"Yeah I-I'm fine, but why did you save me? You kill anybody you can and sell their parts..."
"Your father saved me from some thieves, I promised to save him and his family as long as I live"
"And who the hell is that?!"
"Dimension traveler... Supposed to be in.... This one"
The owner dragged the traveler near a door.
"When he wakes up he'll be transported into his dimension.... Are you interested in something in particular?"
I stood for a while, then snapped back.
"Oh just some more supplies, and male armor and weapons; purple would be preferred"
The owner thought for a moment, then disappeared into a curtained room; he returned with the armor and weapons in a basket. Then, grabbed two supply bags, and some dried peaches and tea.
"That treat is on me."
He put put all of the items into one bag and handed it to me.
"Thank you, may be blessed my Niku"
"May Niku bless you and your family"
I smiled and headed out, along my way I saw a red headed girl, but her hair was natural. White shirt,jeans, and black jacket. We bumped shoulders and she made a confused look at me, she walked through the door, then shrieked a name I can't recall.
I climbed out the second door, starting my  journey again.
As I walked I thought for a moment... This amor is the exact same one from my... Vision or whatever. Now I'm starting to worry.
But now, I'm starting to worry about the weird ass bird in the sky. Oh perfect, a mutant bird. This one reminds me of that creature from Supernatural,  I used to study fandoms when I actually went to school. Some type of hybrid... The one I studied for a project was human and bird...WHOOPS! I'm getting off guard.
Oh right, weird bird creature thing.
"Let's fight, birdie boy." I snarled. The mishap with that burnt dude got me going.
It dived for me, I jumped at it. I slashed and cut it's neck. It fell to the ground, and I wiped the blood on the feathers.
I hate being in the after apocalypse, who though bombing Finen would be a great idea?!
Ugh, I need to stop getting off track and focus on getting back home and getting there safe.
