Chapter 1-Everyone Starts for a Reason
Eighteen year old Lucinda Faith Singer had just grabbed her suitcase off the conveyor belt at the airport. She hadn't been home in two years. It was the last week of May and after attending boarding school in England for all of her high school career she was finally moving back home.
Her father, Bobby Singer, sent her there to keep her safe and away from hunting, unbeknownst to her. But that didn't really work out. Near the end of her final year of high school, just barely a month ago, some of her fellow students started disappearing.
The disappearances were gnawing at her. When her roommate and best friend Michelle didn't come to bed one evening, Lucinda's intuition kicked in. The next day when she still hadn't returned she called everyone on campus that was close to her but no one had seen her that evening. Finally, a fellow classmate, William, had some information. He'd seen Michelle heading out to the trails near the school for a run.
Lucinda changed into her worn brown combat boots, grabbed her phone, a flashlight, a map of the area. The police weren't acting fast enough and she'd be damned if her friend was out there in need of help. She felt she couldn't just sit there and wait for them to do something. The sun was just dipping down out of the sky so she pulled on her blue faux leather jacket for warmth in the chilly spring air and headed out.
After an hour of walking the trails and calling out Michelle's name there was nothing. Lucinda decided to change tactics and go off of the trails, even though that was advised against because it was easy to get lost in those woods.
The moon was out and the sky was dark. Lucy checked her phone. It was half past eight now and still no sign of Michelle.
She jerked her head to the right when she heard a crashing noise. She slipped her phone back in her pocket and crouched down. She half crawled in the direction of the noise. She froze when she saw the sight before her. A ginormous cave was in front of her and there, standing in front of it was a freaking giant!
She blinked. No. Way. Not possible. Sure there were people who defied the odds and were seven foot tall and usually played in the NBA but not THIS tall. The male was twice that size, at least thirteen feet tall. His head alone was the size of a car tire!
She was frozen, hidden under some overgrown bushes. She was trying to control her breathing and calm down. Could this thing, giant, whatever have kidnapped Michelle? She had to find out and as she watched him sit down in front of his, she presumed, cave she mulled over a plan.
She decided to distract him and would sacrifice her phone in the process. She turned the volume on it all the way up and went to her music, playing the song Satisfaction. As soon as she hit play she hid the phone under the bush, screen side down, and moved a few feet down from the bush. The giant swung its head around towards where she was moments ago. He clumsily walked towards the noise. While he was distracted she moved towards the cave as quickly and quietly as she could.
Once at the cave's entrance she looked back. The giant was bending down, looking for the source of the noise but making annoyed grunting noises at not being able to find it. She pulled a flashlight from inside her jacket and entered the cave, praying it would take him long enough to find her phone to give her enough time to get in and get out.
This was so stupid, stupidly dangerous. She wasn't even sure if she was of the right mind at the moment. But she tried to shake all that off and just follow her gut which was telling her to keep going.
After a few minutes she froze. The music stopped and she heard the giant coming back to the cave.
She turned off her flashlight and ran further into the cave depending on her other senses to guide her.
After a few minutes she stumbled over something. Groaning at her now throbbing knees and scraped up hands she sat up. She turned her flashlight back on to see what she tripped over.
She screeched then immediately clapped a hand over her mouth. She clamped her eyes shut and cursed herself as her scream echoed through the cave. But the sight before her terrified her more than any giant. It was Michelle, lying lifeless on the ground. And she wasn't the only one. As Lucinda moved the beam of light around she saw more bodies and a pile of bones. Tears streamed down her face. What the hell had she gotten herself into?
When she heard heavy footsteps she turned off the light and flattened herself against the wall. Unable to see the giant but hearing his footsteps and, she almost gagged, smelling him. She quietened her breathing as much as she could, closing her eyes since she couldn't see anything and hoping it would heighten her other senses.
She shook as she heard him pass her going further into the cave. Seeing this as her chance she slowly crept along the wall back towards the entrance. Her best bet was to get out of the cave and run for it. She'd alert the police when she got back to campus, if she got back. Did the police even handle stuff like this? They would probably think she was nuts.
When she felt she was far enough away from the giant she ran for it, cringing at the slap of her feet on the dirt below her feet. She could just make out the light of the cave when she screamed again as she felt a giant hand wrap around her.
"Where do you think you're going?" it said, his voice booming around the caves walls.
It lifted her up to its face and inspected her. Apparently it was able to see in the dark. She kicked and punched out, successfully hitting his nose. He merely rubbed at his nose like it had an itch and tightened his grip on her. She tried to squirm free when the cave was suddenly filled with light.
She twisted to see what caused it and so did the giant.
There were people below them! She yelled on the inside for joy. They held weapons and the lights were coming from what looked like a Hummer.
The giant roared and swatted. Lucinda jostled around in his hand and suddenly felt the need to throw up. She caught a glimpse of a man with a crossbow aiming for the giant. He shot at the giant, who staggered a bit, then a second and a third. The next thing she knew she was falling to the ground. The giant released her from his grip as the arrows pierced his heart.
She met the ground with a loud thud and as she did she heard something crack. A young woman who looked just a few years older than her came to her side along with a young man and they hoisted her up between them. They rushed back to the Hummer and put her in the back, climbing in next to her.
Lucinda watched as the others got into the vehicle and the car started. It reversed, jerking her back against the seat. The giant was falling towards them and the others were yelling.
"GO! GO! Faster!"
"He's going to squash us!"
That ended up not being the case. Once the giant fell the Hummer stopped and two men got out. They checked to be sure the giant was dead. Lucinda watched with her mouth and eyes wide as one man brandished a sword and with two swift movements had beheaded the giant. This time she really did throw up.
Afterwards the men worked to dig a hole in the cave to bury the giant in while the girl, Anna, helped Lucinda.
Lucinda winced as Anna wrapped her arm. "It's broken for sure." Anna said.
"How do you know? Are you a doctor?" Lucinda asked, gritting her teeth at the pain.
Anna shook her head. "No, but I've mended quite a few broken bones over the years. You'll be alright but you might want to have a doctor look at it and cast it properly."
Lucinda nodded.
A few hours later she was at a bar with the group who rescued her.
"So you call yourselves hunters. Okay. And you hunt supernatural creatures? So not just giants but vampires and werewolves too?"
Ben, the man that had made the kill shot nodded.
"And the only way to kill a giant is with silver arrows and then beheading it?" Lucinda asked.
The others nodded.
"So what exactly is a giant?"
A man named Paul answered, who seemed to be the leader of the ragtag group. "Well according to what we know giants are a rare offspring of a male angel and a female human."
"You mean like nephilim?" Lucy asked. She'd read about them in one of her father's books. "Wait," she said as she remembered something. "Wasn't the reason behind the flood in the story of Noah and the Ark because God was wiping out the giants? They're appetites were so big they started eating humans?"
Paul nodded. "So you do know a little something about all this."
"Just what I've read in some of my dad's books," she shrugged.
"Is your dad a hunter?" Ben asked.
Lucy shook her head. "No of course not, I think I'd know if…" She stopped.
It all clicked into place. Why her dad had all those books and strange objects. Why he had so many weapons. The weird conversations she overheard him having on the phone.
She sat back in her chair. Her mom…something must have got her mom, that's why her dad never liked to talk about her or what happened.
"Are you guys the only hunters out there?" she asked.
She left the question open, already knowing the answer. Her dad was a hunter. He sent her away to keep her from it. At this revelation she was stung with betrayal and hurt.
"No. There are hunters everywhere, all over the world."
