By KeinanX
[In a world full of dangerous lands with deadly creatures, cities that are vile, full of gangs and troublesome individuals, and ruthless organizations that will stop at nothing to inflict terror on those that fall victim to them, comes a story of special individuals that at a cost are sworn to protect and serve those that cannot fend for themselves from the dangers that ensue their surroundings, these individuals being known as Crusaded Defenders.]
CHAPTER:1
Defenders on the scene!
May 2016 on a ship in the fierce Berlyra ocean comes a wealthy slightly older middle-aged man in a suit and his slightly overweight but gentlemanly looking brother shifting their way over on an expedition to a certain island.
Ryan: “This is it finally! Out at sea, after so much research and gaining the permission and authorization to go forth with this voyage, we can finally head for the island known as Glarera’s Rock!”
Charles: “Indeed, brother, we're really doing this! Father would be impressed.”
Ryan: “Ha I can’t wait to show that old man when the time comes that I Ryan Maxdell succeeded where he failed! It's only a matter of time!”
Ryan said with his hands out in the air.
Charles: “Don’t forget me brother I deserve some credit too, after all, Maxdell's together make quite the combination!”
Ryan: “By the way Charles where’s Luna at?”
Charles: “Oh she’s playing by the afterdeck.”
Ryan: “P--playing by the afterdeck?! You idiot, do you have any idea where we are?! These are not your ordinary seas! You should have kept her in the cabins!”
Charles: “Ah, well she said she wanted to get some fresh air and--”
Ryan: “Fool! It doesn’t matter if she wants fresh air, you should have told her to stay put like I insisted! It’s bad enough that she snuck on board the ship to join us on this journey, now she thinks she can do whatever she likes without listening to me?!”
Charles: “I’m sorry brother, i’ll go get her and return her to her cabin quickly!”
Ryan: “No need I will. I have to give that girl a piece of my mind!”
Charles: “Ryan wait!” (Oh boy.)
Meanwhile, at the afterdeck the young and beautiful blonde hair girl in a white dress was looking directly down at the sea looking like she was about to tip over.
Luna: “It’s so beautiful…”
She then saw a mass of bubbles appearing in the water, wondering what was the cause.
Luna: “Hmm?”
Mysterious boy: “Whoa! Hey girl, be careful!”
The boy grabbed her hand, pulling her back.
Luna: “Huh?! Let go of me, you idiot!”
Mysterious boy: “Whoa, hey! You looked like you were going to fall over!”
Luna: “I was perfectly in control, I don’t need someone like you getting overprotective of me, my father already does that.”
Mysterious boy: (Jeez, what the hecks her problem?)
The blonde spiky hair boy with a jacket like vest and slightly baggy jean shorts thought.
Luna: “Any who carry on with what you were doing.”
Mysterious boy: "Sure whatever." (Girls as usual.)
The boy walked away.
Luna: (Who was that kid, anyway? Aren't there only supposed to be adults besides me on board?)
Ryan: “Luna!!”
Luna: (Ah oh!) “Oh father, what brings you over here?”
Ryan: “Luna you foolish girl, didn’t I tell you it wasn’t safe at all for you to leave your cabin while we were traveling!”
Luna: “I know, father but it gets so suffocating in there! I don’t want to spend the entire expedition locked in my cabin!”
Ryan: “Don’t talk back! You're lucky i’m even letting you come along since we're already 4 days out at sea, you're still too young and your mother doesn’t know you're out here with us on a voyage as dangerous as this!”
Luna: (I’m pretty sure she’s figured it out by now to be honest.)
Ryan: “You're not ready for where we're headed, so be a good girl for once. Stop running all over the place and stay put locked in your cabin!"
Luna: “Father, I'm 15, I can handle this! Besides, we have all these paid armed guards with us that will shield us from any harm!”
Ryan: “That’s not the--!”
Suddenly the ship began rumbling.
Soldier 15: "What the?!"
Charles: "This rumbling! Everyone brace yourselves!"
Luna: "What's going on? Why's the ship rumbling like this?!"
Suddenly in the blink of an eye a large tentacle rushed up out of the sea and appeared behind the ship, grabbing Luna in an instance.
Luna: "Huh?!!!"
Ryan: "Luna!!!"
Soldier 7: "We're under attack!"
Ryan: "Quickly, what are you all waiting for?! You men fire at it and don't hit my daughter in the process!"
In the heat of the situation a group of 12 men gathered and fired at the tentacle's lower half avoiding Luna Maxdell.
Soldier 8: "We got it!"
Soldier 7: "Hang on Look at it!"
Ryan: "What?!"
Ryan and the soldiers watched as the small bullet wounds on the tentacle were healing at an accelerated rate to where the guns were ineffective.
Soldier 3: "Our guns, they!"
Luna: "Dad help!!"
Ryan: "Luna!" (Dammit, if these men don't do something now she'll be pulled into the ocean!)
Soldier 10: "What do we do?!"
Soldier 7: "Keep firing!"
The men fired again, hoping to do as much as they could, but none stood a chance against the monster's incredible healing factor.
Charles: "It's no use!"
Luna: "Help!!"
Ryan: "Luna!!"
Mysterious boy: "[Sigh] well guess I've gotta do it then huh?"
Ryan: "What?!"
The mysterious boy walked right beside Ryan, took out a revolver and struck the tentacle on impact, making it release the girl.
Everyone: (!!!!)
Ryan: "Luna!"
Luna: "Aaaaaaah!!"
The helpless girl fell but was then caught by Charles safely.
Charles: "You ok?"
Lunar q: "Uncle Charles!"
Ryan: "Both of you stop sitting there and get to the lower deck now!"
Charles: "Luna let's go!"
Luna: "Ok!"
The two rushed off, distancing themselves from the danger, while more tentacles appeared around the ship.
Soldier 15: "Shit, there's more!"
Monitor: "Everyone prepare defensive maneuvers and have all weapons ready!"
Mysterious boy: "Looks like we're in a real sticky situation here, pops."
The boy said casually next to Maxdell.
Ryan: "Huh?" (This boy, did he really just stop that tentacle alone and do it with that small revolver on top of it while everyone else was using assault rifles?!)
Soldier 8: "Fire everyone!"
The soldiers shot at a tentacle but we're not doing enough damage until the boy shot it with one round and had the tentacle dive back in the water.
Ryan: "Unbelievable!" (It's like the weapons the soldiers possess are mere toys shooting out tiny needles at the thing, but the gun the boy uses does more no 50% more damage than their guns put together!)
Mysterious boy: "Don't worry, we'll handle this."
Ryan: (We'll?)
Meanwhile, the tentacles around the ship started grabbing the men on board.
Soldier 4: "Gaaaaah!! It's got me!"
The boy shot the tentacle, saving the soldier.
Mysterious boy: (That's one.)
Soldier 10: "H--Help!!"
Another bullet was fired, saving yet another.
Mysterious boy: (Two.)
Soldier 12: "Hey revolver kid over here quick!"
Mysterious boy: "..."
Another tentacle shot, another soldier saved.
Soldier 15: "Aaaaaaaaahhhh!!!"
Mysterious boy: "Oh come on!"
The boy shot as many tentacles as he could, saving some men, but others were pulled into the ocean.
Soldier 18: "No!! Help!!"
Mysterious boy: "Dammit it got them!"
Ryan: "Tch."
Mysterious boy: (Come on partner, where are you?)
Ryan: "What are the rest of you fools doing?! Go and use the rockets already!"
7 of the soldiers: "Sir!"
The men went and brought a large crate of ammunition and went and loaded the rockets, blasting 3 of them off at the tentacles.
Soldier 7: "Did we get them?!"
The men watched as the tentacle beasts were still up and kicking, only having a mid chunk of its meat blown off, but had quickly regenerated.
Soldier 3: "You're kidding! The rockets proved to be of little effect!"
Soldier 11: "No, it did some type of damage but it didn't blow them clean off!"
Ryan: "I--impossible!"
Mysterious boy: "It's not, the creature we're dealing with is like no other, only someone with Forcer can do complete damage to it."
Ryan: "Forcer?" (I feel like I've heard of that before?!) "What's that?"
Mysterious boy: "I'll explain later, right now you should make your way back to your family in the lower deck."
Ryan: "But I!"
Mysterious boy: "Stand back and go find safety, I'll deal with this."
Ryan: "O--ok."
Ryan stepped back.
Ryan: (This is bad, was I prepared enough for this?)
Suddenly someone dashed pass Ryan and jumped over to where the tentacles were attacking.
Ryan: "What the?!" (A shadowy figure?)
Mysterious boy A: "Don't worry, our secret weapon to take that monster down is here!"
Ryan: "R--really?!"
The tentacle attacked the incoming person but was completely cut in half.
Ryan: "H--he chopped off the tentacle!!"
Mysterious boy A: (Heh, what took you so long? Were you waiting for your opportunity to shine or something, Lay Rylon or should I say Mr The Crazer?)
The person who lied before them was a boy with mid-long black hair and black jacket and jeans carrying a long blade.
Lay: "..."
