"Where am I?" I wondered aloud as I began to see shadows emerge from behind me. I quickly turn around to see that my captors had been following me the whole time.

"You're in Azoria." A person with a black hood said. There was also another person in a black hood. They seemed vuegely familiar. Wait a second that husky voice. They were the people who kidnapped me earlier! I then tried to process what he said. Azoria... I've never heared of Azoria. Is it even in this world? Universe!? Why did they take me here in the first place. I contemplated which question to ask first. I just settled on asking two in one.
"What is Azoria and where is it?" The guy in the black hood sighed and pulled down his hood.
"Azoria," he bagan, "Is a place where different entities from different universe's and multi-verses come for peace, war, or just materials. Azoria was forged from the ground up by warlock named Zenix. Zenix believed that if he could lure different species with different powers that he could drain them for his own fortune. Zenix knew that the younger you were the more power you held. So he would go after children and capture them. Sadly none of them made it out if they ever got in. Thousands of years later a new lord (Malachite) emerged from the shadows of Bahemia. Malachite believed that everyone should be in harmony but also have a counsel to handle disputes. And he knew what Zenix was doing to the innocent so he challenged him and ultimately defeated him. In his way of handling disputes they battle it out in arenas until the one who cuts off the other's head wins."
Isn't it kind of contradictory to say you want peace but "solve disputes" with violence? I think aloud.
"It might be but don't let any of the towns folk hear you say that or they'll eat you. Especially since you're a human." He said pointing to the villages in Azoria.
"Why especially humans?" I questioned with confusion.
"Because," he sighed, "Here you're kind is a delicacy. Humans are so hard to come around that if you have one you can either sell them for riches or eat them in a feast. Don't worry though, our kind doesn't eat your kind." I shiver at the thought of some disgusting monster eating me.
"Oh and by the way my name's Dre and my sister's is Coraline." He said lightly nudging his sister in the shoulder. She just rolled her eyes and said,"Enough with the pleasantries and let's get a move on." Her voice was loud and surprisingly low for a female. Me and Dre just followed her for a second until she stopped.
"Here." She said giving me her hood. I put it on.
You'll need it so no one knows your human. I have come to these shops all the time without my cloak so they won't suspect anything with me." She says casually as if this has happened before.
"Thanks for the hood." I say to her smiling happily.
"It isn't a "hood". It's called a cloak."
"Like the one they use in Harry Potter?"
"I don't know or care what that is but yeah why not. Just make sure this stays over your face no matter what okay?" She was talking to me as if I were a child but I just nodded. There was no time to argue. Plus I still don't know what their capable of.
"Anyways let's get a move on now." Coraline says as she already starts walking. Me and Dre both follow her. My heart is racing to find out what kind of creatures lie ahead.
