Chapter Two: Flashback Part 2
I woke up in a large, soft bed. I sat up and looked around. It was a big room with old furniture. The bed took up most of the room, but the room has a home feeling to it. The wooden door creaked open, as the little boy from before, came in. He held a small tray of food.
“W-who are y-you?” I asked as he walked up to me cautiously.
“Are you cold?” He set the tray down next to me and went into a large closet in the corner. He brought out a fluffy blanket. “Here” He handed me the blanket.
“T-thanks.” I wrapped it around me shoulders. “Who are you?”
“The guy who saved you from the monster.”
“I-I’m the monster. I killed those men and my Master.”
“He forced you to kill those men. How and why?”
“I’ll a-answer your q-question if you answer mine.” I said boldly.
“I’m a Hunter. Well I’m training to be a Hunter.”
“W-what are hunters?”
“We are train to hunt evil supernatural creatures.”
“A-are you going to k-kill me?”
“Are you evil?” he chuckled.
“N-no…” Before he could say anything else, the door opened. It revealed an older man.
“Ash? Are you in here?” The man asked.
“I’m here Father.” The little boy, named Ash I guess, answered back.
“Who is this young lady and why is she in your bed?” I blushed and opened my mouth to speak, but Ash beat me to it.
“I found her. Some man was forcing her to kill people, but I know she’s good on the inside.”
“She killed someone?” He laughed. “She’s only a little kid. Maybe a five year-old.”
“I-I did kill someone.” I spoke up. “I-I killed a g-group of men and m-my master.”
“Dad! She has a power. Her eyes turn red and she can kill anyone.”
“My eyes can change with my mood. I-I have trouble controlling it. All I know is that I can change my eyes to red. If they turn red, I want to kill everything in sight.”
“Can we keep her dad? We could train her as a Hunter. We can help her control her power”
“Boy, don’t be blabbing your mouth to random strangers.”
“Please dad.” Ash pouted.
“Fine.” He turned to me. “Do you have any parents?”
“Y-yes, but they l-left me when I w-was very young.”
“Well now we’re your new family.” I smiled.
“T-thank you.”
“Do you have a name?”
“No.”
“Well, we can’t have that can’t me. Let’s name you Faith.”
“Now, come on. We’ll get you some real clothes.” I hopped off the bed happily
