Jack walked down the dark path through the woods when suddenly a hooded stranger jumped down from the tree tops. Jack turned around a went to reach for his weapon. He looked the stranger up
and down. Realizing her large
chest and long legs. She was definitely a female even though she wore a black mask wrapped around her head.
"What are you?"
"Huh?" Jack frowned.
"I asked a question," she suddenly
was in front of him with a long dagger at his throat, "tell me now!"
She pushed his hair away from his ear. She felt the tip of his ear, he pulled away when she looked into his eyes. Her sweet, dangerous, bright red eyes seemed to glow. Jack looked at her beautiful figure.
"I-I'm Jack, the royal guard for.."
"King Richard." She growled.
Jack nodded and held his hand out to shake, she pushed his hand away, "I'm Emilia, the best demon hunter in any of the five lands." Emilia put her dagger away and laughed in a evil kind of way "so what brings a human peasant to the enchanted forest?"
"I'm not a peasant. What are you? Those eyes aren't human." Jack once again stared into her deep red eyes. Emilia looked up at the trees, her gloved-hands at her side. She stared off into space until
Jack spoke with wanting in his voice, "Richard killed my family. Lucifer told me to find those who Richard had wronged. Did he wrong you?"
"Fuck ya! He took my sister as a sex slave when we were only children. My guess is she died or was killed. She was a fucking child that he used as, as, as his play thing!" Her face turned into a deep red. Jack nodded and put a hand on her shoulder. Emilia jerked her shoulder away from him in one sudden movement. Jack sighed and stared walking along the path again. Emilia yelled "I will join you, but if you dare turn on me, you will wish Lucifer had his hands on you when I'm done."
Emilia slowly pulled her mask off. Her long, curly black hair fell down to her shoulders, her red eyes looked dangerous when together with her deep red lips and her pale skin looked smooth. Jack's breath caught in his throat, her beauty overthrew him.
"It's impossible to breath in this thing." She smiled.
"Yea of course."
They started walking together along the path until they came to a dark town. Emilia tucked her hair up as she put her mask back on. They started walking slowly through the town, it smelled of death and fear. Suddenly from out of nowhere a boulder of a man appeared. His stone hard face had a low frown.
"Come here bitch!"
A smaller man appeared, a look of fear on his face. "Eve-everyone else was killed I swear."
The boulder man pointed towards Jack and Emilia and shouted "THEN WHO ARE THEY?!?"
"We are Jack and..." Jack started as Emilia whispered in his ear,
"Frogmog the Demon hunter"
"And Frogmog the Demon hunter!" Jack finished but it didn't seem like they were listening. The bigger man turned and pulled out a small, long tube like thing and pointed it at Jack. He pulled a trigger and a small sliver, round object shot out
of the end of the tube, the side facing Jack. Emilia quickly jump in front of Jack and got hit in the shoulder. The huge man started laughing as he handed the long tube like thing to the smaller man, "finish them now!" With that he lumbered off. Jack fell to his knees beside Emilia, he held her in his arms as his grip tightened on her, "please wake up Frogmog. I need you."
Emilia let out a long breath and opened her eyes. A smile spread on her face, "you didn't think it was going to be that easy to get rid of me, did ya?"
With that she stood up and frowned. Jack stood up and quickly pulled her back "you're not good to anyone dead, except of course King Richard." He ran after the skinny man with his sword drawn. The man pulled the trigger but a tiny, silver object didn't fly out this time. Jack sighed as he rammed his sword into the man, blood filled the man's mouth. Jack twisted his sword and as he looked into the man's eyes, the man whispered "thank you..." Jack pulled his sword out and the man fell like a wet cloth. Jack sighed as he kneeled beside the dead body.
"God have mercy on your soul."
Jack stood up and walked over to Emilia and helped her up. Emilia pushed him away, "I can do it myself." Jack shook his head stood back as Emilia groaned.
Emilia nodded and laughed, "do ya know how to fix this?" She pointed to her wounded shoulder with her other hand. Jack nodded and picked her up, she pushed and hit as she said that she could manage herself. Jack brought her to an old inn near the middle of town. When they got inside, Jack gently put Emilia down. The webs hung from everywhere, the dust covered every object, the air was thick and the ground creaked under them.

"So now what?" Emilia looked at her arm as Jack finished washing the blood off the wound.
Jack sighed as he looked into her eyes, "I don't know. We need to get more followers so we can kill the king." He spit on the ground after saying king. Emilia nodded and stood up, "we should get some rest Jack." She walked up the stairs to one of the many rooms. Jack sighed and walked towards a bed.
