The Jade Creature

Introduction

A long time ago during the Middle Ages, there was a hunter, a tribesman, a warrior. His name was unknown, over the ages he had long forgotten it. He also lived in an unknown country, in reality there is not much known about this man, but there is one thing that everyone that meets him should know......He is not the man you think he is.

Chapter 1 - The Birth

When he was in his late 30s he was on an everyday gathering mission, the kind he would normally do with his fellow hunters and gatherers. They were tasked by what the man vaguely remembers to be the so called 'Alpha of the tribe' to collect various animals and bring them to the headquarters for breeding. They were on their way to the cave where the animals that they were meant to 'collect' were said to be. He and his comrades marched into the cave with no intent on dying or being injured. The group started hearing strange noises that did not sound like any animal that they or any other tribesperson had ever seen before. The group kept walking until out of nowhere, their torches went out and they were in the dark. In their own language they argued on whether to run back or to relight the torches and keep moving. The arguing filled the cave, but in a split second the noise completely stopped and the man shouted in his own language for his comrades.......there was no response. He shouted even louder for his friends to answer to what he was saying..........There was no answer. The man had had enough and he relit his torch as fast as he could and started running in the direction that he suspected was the exit to the cave, he ran and ran and ran until he made it to the end, but there was nothing there, no exit, no means of escape, just a wall, a plain wall that ended his run in an attempt to get out of the cave. He leaned up against it in disappointment and started whining and moaning in his failure to complete his task, his failure to escape and his failure to keep his friends with him on the journey. He sat there for about 10 minutes in sorrow wondering what would happen next, the wall behind him showed a crack, a crack that hadn't of been there before, and a crack that seemed out of place on that kind of wall. He put his hand up the crack slowly wondering what had happened and how it had got there. As he moved it closer and closer.........The crack extended, and it got bigger and bigger and bigger until the wall completely collapsed and was nothing but a pile of rubble in front of his face. He stood up more frightened that ever and took short steps closer and closer to the darkness that was in front of him. As he walked more and more he got even more frightened and felt more and more vulnerable. A light appeared 10 meters away from him, a green light similar to that of an LED, however LEDs were obviously not a thing in those days so what could it have been. At this point he was frightened as he had ever been in his whole life, shivering as if it were -100C outside. The green light stood silent for a second, he stopped shivering and contemplated on whether he should run or not the light looked as if it were looking him right in the eye, and in the blink of his eye, the light shot right at him and right into his chest. He felt a power surge pass through his body, screaming in fear not in pain the power took over his body, begging for his life he fought to survive.
