The Villain I am Not

Chapter Two

(Amberle)

Waking up in the middle of the night without any reason its very common to me. All this Nights I have been waking up various times in the night just to think about alot of things, like the past day or things I have to finish Tomorow. Here I was, waking up earlier than usual so I could work a little harder to get paid. Sure I was a light guardian, but since the fall of the Master,s Temple back at Seratia, the guardians have been low since that attack. Many of the masters are hiding, others are never herd for or have been hunted down by the agents of the nine. The agents are a secret Order working in silence for Rohnan. They are very skilled assassins, and they spy on the council to share information to their master. I started working in a trading post. Exchanging money for cool stuff nobody wanted. It was amazing how many weird stuff came in, Ship parts, toys, machines, and even old books. I arrived at the trading post and Konney opened up the door to me, it was still closed. Konney is a Zethian an Alien race with big eyes and very tiny nose, yeah your typical alien basic. I sat down on one of the chairs and complained about how hard was sleeping for me last night. I had a weird dream, I was been chased by two Nemsword empire machines, and as they reached me I was saved by a man wearing a Black armor with a Mask. He destroyed the machines and reached his hand to me, as I rised to see my savior, i always seem to wake up. Who are you? And why you in my head? I said a little loud, Konney looked at me with his big eyes and smiled at me

"Day dreaming?" - he said in a low voice
"Oh? No I was just, thinking about something that has my mind running"

"If your mind its running... Better go catch it! You will need it for today!" - he replied waiting and answer

"Oh I'm sorry Konney! Congratulations on your new year!" - he smiled it was more like his birthday

"Its been 745 human years and I am still feeling like the first 100 where the best here" -he mumbled

It was time to open the trading post and as customers walked in and out with their stuff I was counting the hours so I could return home and do nothing for the rest of the day. It was a very good day, we traded alot and it was time to close the store, Konney left earlier so he could meet with some friends for his celebration, he invited me but I said I would be busy after work, he was a little disappointed but he understood. I finished cleaning the floors and closed the place. I walked home and on my way I stopped at a small vendor to buy something to eat tonight. I bought supplies and moved home. Once home I felt a little sad, no one waiting for me, no one to say "hey welcome back, how was your day?" Or anything.
I placed every thing in order and head to the basement that has a small training area for me to stay sharp on the light guardian training. I sat down to calm myself and meditation was in place. I rised and practiced combat skills and trained about and hour then the food was ready for me. I got in the shower and then proceed to eat. I was alone on the table when my door was knocked. Who could it be? It was a little late. As I walked toward the door another knock was heard. When I opened up it was a man on a hood.

"Can I help you?" - I replied scared

"Yes, you can... May I come in?"

"No... I mean, who are you?"

"Dont you know me Child? It is me... Master Yookai"

I was surprised to see him, since our last training he departed and said he would only come back if something terrible had happened. I opened the door quickly and told him to sit down on the table so he could eat. He walked and sat down. I served him the food and he prayed before eating.

"Master, why are you here?" - I dared to ask

"Hmm..." -he was eating

As he finished the bite he took of the meat he spoke back,
