EPISODE 4:A Howl In The Darkness
"If you don't mind me asking...what is my name and what is yours?" ''Your name" ,said the ghost like wolf,"that even i do not no,child,but you can call me Howl".''Howl?'',said the boy with a disappointed look on his face."What,is something wrong with my name?"With the wolfs blood eyes beaming down on the boy there wasn't much room for negotiation."While we walk i will be in scythe form,if you don't mind, less attention grabbing",said the wolf as his essence was slowly swallowed by the scythe.And so the two began there journey to the city.With unfamiliar weather beating down from blistering cold to desert sand,seeming all to no avail in getting any closer to the town the scythe previously mentioned.Finding themselves in a barren wasteland of sandstorms and metal relics, the boys guardian answers as many questions about the boy and himself as he can."Do you know anything about what happened prior to me waking up?",asked the curious child."Not entirely, mostly i see pieces, a faint tone or song being sung,then utter darkness enveloped my very being, and suddenly i felt split in some way as though my body was no longer whole, then i herd a small cry...it was you"."Me?" "Yes your voice brought me out of that darkness and it was then i knew you were my master no doubt about it".''But what happened to your previous master?"Before the boy could get an answer he felt an unease "Show yourself!!!" the boy shouted.A small voice came out of the distance "Make him suffer",then another,"Yes,master". ''Show yourself" the boy repeated, then silence. a gray figure approached him.As the figure came into focus the boy could see that it was a black cloaked man with two pistols at his waste and a large reapers cloaked draped over his slender body."You child, you must come with me, there is much that needs to be done"."Never ",said the boy,"I don't know who you are but there is no way i'm going anywhere with you".As the boy draws his scythe for battle the man vanishes."What,where did he...''..."Over here".The boy turned to raise his weapon, a shot was fired from the mans gun, the boy flipped his blade to block the shot, it misses him, lurching forward to the man for a slicing attack, he pulls his two pistols in cross to block."You're good,kid, your father would be proud".''What, how do you know my father?!"The man jumps into the air as his his body seems to be engulfed by the sand, but what falls is no man, but a black cloaked wolf with golden eyes stands poised in front of the boy."Now the real fight begins".( if you enjoyed this entry in the story view the first journal to here the whole story)
