A visit to a village Episode 2

"Everyone gather around." said Rose.

When the whole tower C members gathered together outside the tower, Rose told them that they were going to level up going to different parts of the island but first they had to meet people that know more about the island.

Len asked who it was that knew more about the island, Rose replied :

"I took the whole of last night to study more about the island and its geological structure and I discovered that there were the same set of people like us that are trapped here, they joined together to make villages.

There are four villages in this giant island and we are going to one today, we will try our best to become friends with them, so we can work hand-to-hand with each other to get stronger and conquer all the rages. Let's head out !!!"

They traveled using directions from Rose's twinkler to get to the village. When they got there, they found out that the village they were in was the smallest of the whole four villages in the island.

They talked to the commoners and their few, not so strong soldiers about them being island captives.

Rumors spread fast and so it got to the chief of the village, the chief asked them to come to his palace. They arrived and introduced themselves, the chief welcomed them and also entertained them. He asked them for a favour, he said :

"The citizens of my village are weak and afraid, they can never stand to fight at the battle field, they would just die of fear because of a rage and so the inability for them to fight made some wild dogs from the forest to attack us and steal our food every night.

please help us to kill these beasts and we will reward you handsomely with money that will help you in other villages, crystals and food."

The tower members agreed to the deal. They stayed there for the night and they started planning on the 'hunt'.

Rose said that they will split up into 4 teams, two people in each team and three in the weakest.

Len came to Rose and asked her if they would be paired up together but she replied:

"I think it would be best to know more of our tower members and also have bonds with them too."

Len felt disappointed but accepted it. He was paired up with a boy with blond hair and looked a little bit younger than him.

On Rose's side, her partner was a man that also had blonde hair, he looked older than her.

"Wow, this place is so dark and cavy, don't you think ?"

They boy ignored him and kept on going.

"Hi, my name is Len Adams, I'm 19 years old ..."

The boy paused for a moment, but kept on going after. Len continued :

"I had a car accident, I was hit by a van, can you tell me some of your details ?"

The boy kept silent. In a slightly angry manner ;

"Ugh I'm talking to you, are you mute ?..."

"If your not gonna talk we won't be able to work together and so you'll just die off. Unlike me your weak.

"Alright, fine, I'm sorry, my name is Andrew Woods, I'm from New York..."

"Wait a minute, do you mean the Andrew Woods that got kidnapped four days ago !!?"

"Yeah, that Andrew Woods..."

"I was beaten up so harshly and mercilessly, my father was told to pay a huge amount of money for me to be released ..."

"My father was only given 3 days, but he needed a week and so they killed me.

My sister snuck in the hide out to rescue me, but ... She got ..."

"Ouch, that's hard to take in, I'm sorry I made you tell me."

"No I have finish..."

"They killed me afterwards, my sister is here in this island, she's Ashley."

He continued :

"All I have to do is survive, defeat the rages to see them again, my family"

"Its not that easy, you know ?"

"I do."

"So what's your best food, color sport, hobbies ?"

"I like eating french fries, cuz their crispy and crunchy, color, yellow, and I don't do sports and for hobbies, I like staying in the park and watching... "

From nowhere, a wild big and tall dog with razor sharp teeth came running to them !!!

It was about to jump and take off Andrew's head, but Len used his hand and weapon claws to clash the dogs face and teeth and so pushed the dog away and save Andrew.

"You owe me one, big time !!!"

"Sure"

The dog became aggressive and came for another attack.

"What's your mist level ?"

"It's 2, how about yours ?"

"Mine is 3, try to fight or at least help me or I may die !!!"

"I'll try but they look dangerous and scary."

The dog charged again, but this time at Len, it wanted to kill him so badly.

He used his claws to scratch it twice and then held it.

"Hurry, Andrew use your knife to stab this thing, fast !!!"

" I'm sorry, but I can't, it's just too dangerous and scary."

"Scary, dangerous, what am I doing !!"

The dog broke the hold and bite Len's shoulder, it was so painful.

Len threw the dog and forcefully grabbed the knife from Andrew and stabbed the dog's neck.

The monster died.

Len collected its fangs and claws and kept it in his little bag so he could use it to make blades.

He used Andrew's knife to take the dogs fur, though it was flat, it was useful.

Lastly he took the mist heart from the dog and absorbed the mist energy.

They kept going, but was slow, because he was injured. Andrew told him to rest, but he disagreed and kept going.

On Rose's side :

Her partner's name was Simon he was formerly a construction worker who died at an accident in the site.

Their hunting was going smoothly, Simon protected Rose as she had his back.

Simon uses a long wood carved as a bat as a weapon

"So, how old is your sister ?"

"She's 20 years."

"Is she cute?"

In a joking manner,

"Well cute enough for someone of her age."

In the next fight, Andrew was much more helpful.

Len used Andrew as bait, because fir some reason the dogs always wanted to attack him.

They killed more dogs and got their hearts (The hearts don't have blood they just glow and are spherical)

They absorbed the energy and saved some.

Andrew newly got to level 3, and Len was about to reach level 4.

They kept going... But...

"Argh, there are four dogs here!!!" Len shouted.

"Was this a trap or its just a pack ?"

Three dogs charged at Len and took him to the ground,

While the last dog was staring at Andrew and kept coming closer bit -by- bit.

Andrew tried to run by the dog pounced on him, it was about to rip off his head.

Suddenly, the dog got knocked out and the dog that was on Len got stabbed and so died.

They both looked up and saw Simon and Rose smiling at them.

"A thanks for saving my life would be nice." Rose said

"Thanks."

At day break, they all went back to the chief's palace to report the out come of their mission.

Just as the chief said, they were rewarded with crystal, food and coins.

"So, can you tell us about the rates of the island ?" Rose asked

"Sure... Its actually awful, the sky turns red and black...

The monsters are different, much stronger....

Its actually hard to explain, please forgive me."

"Its not your fault... So are there tricks or hacks ?"

"Well yeah, we know a lot of them ..."

Len interrupted,

"If you know tricks, why are you still like this !?"

Rose shouted,

"Shut up Len, try to have some manners !!!"

"Actually it true..." the chief said. He continued,

"Some tricks are, in finding crystals, rocks or ores,

Its best to go to caves,

fight monsters and go deep into the cave.

But you can still go to other places like mountains and forests,

but they aren't as efficient as caves."

"How do you maneuver and kill monsters?"

"You take them from their backs or belly, swiftly, quietly and fast... Well that's all we know."

"Thanks for that." Rose said

The next day they decided to stay in the village before they go.

Len and Rose decided to go swimming.

When they were about to jump into the water, a man fishing there stopped them

saying,

"Are you mad! Do you want to die?!"

"We swim all the time, we're used to it so we can't get injured."

"Not that, there is the demon of the sea surrounding this island.

If you dare to get past the fog there, you won't make it back."

"What's this demon?"

"It's a giant fish that eats you up once it sees you.

Don't you think your stronger than it cuz that's the mistake everyone made."

"Hmm, oki doki, no water, sure."

"You may think I'm just imagining, but I'm not!!! You hear me?!"

Len and Rose left so they won't anger the man more.

Night time. They were all sleeping but Len.

He went to got talk to the chief.

"Tell me, what do I have to do to get stronger."

"Well you can just go to a forest and fight all the monsters there for a month.

You can die, so I suggest you go to a village."

"Like this one?"

"No, all the other villages are better than this one."

"How?"

"First, Cassady village, the biggest, best village, with many districts, its almost a country.

Second, Selvow village, the strongest army, not much of love, but action.

Third Ulra village, best in animals, has all types known, unknown.

Lastly, Lao village, this village, weak, small, useless."

"Ahh, so if I wanted to level up, where would I go to?"

"Best is, Cassady."

"Ok... Thanks, I guess I'll need to sleep now."

"Good night."

"Same."

The next they all left to the tower. The tower members and the villagers agreed to be allies.
