Felren continued walking throughout the forest down the path leading back to Marsh Village when suddenly the quiet, faint sound of silence was interrupted by the sounds of rustling in the trees. Felren stopped dead in his tracks and scanned the area. Up to down, left to right, he analyzed everywhere. Upon discovering nothing through simply his vision, Felren continued walking now in a more alert form.
After another five minutes of walking the sound of rustling sounded again as Felren this time held out his fingers and crossbow. "Come on out, whoever you are, you're not hiding from me". Felren said sternly. The sounds of rustling and movement stopped immediatly afterwards. Felren then unleashed a barrage of bullets from his fingertips at the trunk of a tree until it toppled over into the wilderness. "That was a warning, continue and I might accidentally hit you". Felrne said. He then walked again. After about twenty feet of walking the rustling continued as Felren became agitated and started firing in sporadic fashions in various directions. This continued until a creature came stumbling down from the foliage directly above Felren and landed on its back right in front of Felren's eyes. Felren noticed it and hesitated on shooting it until the creature stood up and stared directly at Felren. The creature had a deformed, scarred, scaly, black green skin covering half of his body while the other half was a dirtied, bruised, human flesh. Suddenly the name Rep- Sapien made much more sense to Felren as it seemed to be standing directly in front of him with its bright yellow eyes with a hint of white in the middle of the iris. Felren the noticed that the Rep- Sapien had on a black shirt, black shorts, a long wooden spear with a steel tip at the end of it in his right hand and various amounts of jewlery. The Rep- Sapien wore three golden necklaces around his neck, two rings of gold and silver on one hand and four on the other hand. The Rep- Sapien panicked and held its spear facing towards Felren as an act of defense. Felren then backed up in caution and aimed his crossbow at it. The two made no move leaving the forest completly silent. "What are you"? Felren asked with a frightened sense of disgust. "I'm the monster you've probably heard of around these parts". The Rep- Sapien said in caution. "I see". Felren replied. "He's the Rep- Sapien, I got to use this time to capture him while he's not expecting anything". Felren thought to himself. "If you're thinking about attacking me, don't. I've spent my life running from people so don't think I don't know how to protect myself". The Rep- Sapien said while holding out its left hand as his arm started to form a series of wood made stars. "What the hell is this guys power"? Felren asked himself. "I used the Wood Shard so I can create wood out of nothing and use it as a means to protect myself. But that's not it. I may seem like someone who walks alone but I got an ally". The Rep- Sapien said while holding out his spear. "Ikella I summon you". The Rep- Sapien yelled as the spear morphed from an ordinary spear into a white, pristine looking pegasus. He hopped on it and had his wooden stars at the ready to throw them in any case that Felren should decide to attack. Felren then put away his weapons and held down his hand. "You're not really a monster are you"? Felren asked. "What, why are you asking that"? The Rep- Sapien asked. "What's your name"? Felren asked in return. The Rep- Sapien pondered the Felren's question. "My name, it's been so long since I've used it". The Rep- Sapien said. "You don't remember your name"? Felren asked in confusion. "No, no I do it's just. It's been so long since I've had a conversation with someone rather then running or fighting someone. My name's Regenri". The Rep- Sapien revealed. Felren took pity of Regenri and held out his hand as a friendly offer. Regenri hesitated slightly but firmly took his hand as the two shook hands. "My name's Felren". Felren explained. Regenri then morphed Ikella the Pegasus back into the spear form. "So, why're you interested in me all of sudden? Most people wanna kill me". Regenri explained. "That's exactly why me and my friends are here. We're trying to dethrone the Ferocius Riders before they can find and kill you. So our original goal was to capture you and keep you in good health while our other friends took down the Riders and then free you". Felren explained. "Wait, seriously"? Regenri asked baffled. Felren nodded. "We're staying at Marsh Village, really remote part of town. If you stay there and we sneak you in, you might just be safe". Felren said. Regenri pondered the idea. "I, I don't know, it's been so long since I've been around civilized people, and I just met you so I don't know if I can trust you not to kill me". Regenri explained filled with doubt. Felren gave a reassuring smile. "Haha, don't worry, when you meet my friends you'll love them". Felren said. Regenri gave a hopeful smile. "Haha that sounds nice". Regenri said. The two then started walking towards Marsh Village together at new allies. "So tell me about your friends. Are they nice"? Regenri asked. "Huh oh yeah, you got me who found you, Anita she knows all about God Shards so she might know what happened with you, Eresil taught us how to use Pashiva and". Felren said before getting cut off. "Pashiva, what's that"? Regenri asked. "You'll find out when you meet him. Naytan, he's kind of cowardly but he's a good kid with a lot of potential, Array and Pyroy are brother and sister who're very strong so if you ever wanna see a good sparring match just watch them". Felren explained while Regenri hung his head in sorrow after hearing of the words "Brother and sister". "Then there's Melat". Felren said while suddenly remembering the argument he had with him and remembering the similar situation but reversed back when he was friends with Lucius. "What, is this Melat a bad guy"? Regenri asked. "No, not at all. It's just, we have different priorities right now. He's the strongest of us all and he's also really nice so don't worry, you'll bond with them really quick". Felren said. Suddnely Regenri stopped dead in his tracks and started sniffing the air. "Something's wrong". Regenri said. "What is it"? Felren asked in concern. "Someone's approaching, I can smell it". Regenri said while forming his wooden stars again. Felren got his weapon out and the sound of rustling bushes started again. Only this time instead of the suspence building for minutes, within seconds one figure came walking out of the bushes. The figure had on a steel armor similar to Felren's only with a black paint splattered on it, large steel gauntlets,, black, shined boots, and a desire helmet on his head. The figure carried a long, steel lance at his side and had two long, vertical slashes on the back of his armor. He took off the helmet and revealed to Felren and Regenri who he was. After the mask was off, a stern, scarred face with long, black hair seeping down his face with angered eyes staring directly at Felren. Felren was speechless at the sight of the man. "Lu, Lou, Lucius". Felren said in shock.
