Recap;

"You want me to teach you? That's why you tracked me out here?" She nodded slowly as I gave her a nod while walking past her as I held a grin ear to ear "I have a plan and if I'm correct it'll go smoothly and since you want to be under my wing you'll know a lot and I won't show you any mercy...Are you in?" She knelt down behind me as she looked me in my eyes when I turned to face her and nodded "I want this" I nodded as I made her stand.

"Good because we got a lot of work to do tomorrow" I walked away with my hands behind my back as she followed behind me "What exactly would we be doing?" I chuckled as I sighed "We are going to a guild in the Kingdom" She became shocked fully as I started walking out the woods as I knew tomorrow would be a long trip for us and a glorious adventure.

NOW

ZACK'S P.O.V.

I was inside my house with my baby girl as she was eating the breakfast I made for her as I walked up to her with a smile on my face 'Eventually she'll grow up to be like her Mother, we still miss her everyday and I'm pretty sure that she's watching over us...aren't you Marie?' As my daughter ate in silence I then heard a couple knocks at the door as I was confused- I didn't expect any visitors.

The second I opened the door I seen one of the villagers as she was wide eyed as she grabbed my shirt tightly "Zack she's back she's at the bar" By the tone and the way she spoke I couldn't believe it I Immediately looked at my daughter who was dressed and at my side as she was looking serious as she held my hand ready to go.

"Come on daddy, she's waiting for us" She was confident- ready while I was totally unprepared and was worried about how she look and how she would react to seeing me but after all she was the one that left "Okay" I followed the lady to the bar as it was only around the corner but each step made me feel like I wasn't moving at all.

It was like one of those fearful moments each step you took the destination was getting farther, but eventually I saw double doors as the lady looked at me as I slowly lifted my hand as I hesitantly reached for the door as I knew what and who was on the other side and so I pulled the handle as I walked in with the lady and my little girl.

"You've grown up a lot Heather, How you been?" She smiled slightly as she stood up "I've been doing great, living well I've also learned to use my magic" She threw that in their quick as I looked down slightly in shame as I remembered the arguments we had time to time about her using magic.

"I see and what made you come back?" She walked over to me as she laced her fingers together "I left to get stronger so I could come back and save you all and when I had heard a boy killed them all I came on time to see him just sitting in a tree as for my motive...I'm gonna test him" She sounded dead serious as everyone just stared and even gasped at what she said.

"Why are you testing him for? He's done a lot for everyone here, he could kill you" She gave a look that suggested she knew more than I did "He's not that strong dad, I can sense it and since they've gotten that weak that means your little savior is too" The people stepped outside at my asking as they did so quickly only for a familiar face to walk in- my mother.

"Now child you know you can't be going around saying those type of things, that boy saved us from our burden while you on the other hand was living the high life and you dare come back and say things about the person who saved not only your father but your little sister from seeing a early grave" She looked shocked as I looked at my little girl who came back to my side.

"I understand that you came back to kill monsters Heather, but that boy is no monster" She was upset I could see that but the truth is she wouldn't have came back if it weren't for those monsters raiding the village all the time but how can I blame her? I was the one after all that pushed her away because she could use magic.

I watched her started to walk towards me and in my mind I expected to her to hug me or tell me she understand but in reality she walked right passed me without hesitation "Goodbye, Father" I could tell my mother was highly angry as she stopped her granddaughter in her tracks.

"Child I understand you didn't see eye to eye with your father as a child but right now you have the opportunity to reconnect with him- your baby sister and what do you think she will do if her only role model is abandoning her, you do not have enough darkness in your heart to treat them this way!" She stared me down as she dared to lean down slightly so we can be face to face.

"You don't have no idea what's in my heart" She walked passed her nearly bumping her as she walked out the door and slammed it behind her as I walked over to the counter and sat down as I drank myself a shot that was there on the counter "Your daughter has no respect, one would've thought that she would gain something in her absence" I merely chuckled as I grabbed the bottle on the counter that was used to pour the shots.

"That's your granddaughter too ma, don't act that way I know she got under your skin but if she's anything like me or her mother she'll come around" She hummed low as she then looked up at me "And if she doesn't?" I took another shot at the thought as I shook my head slowly as I put the small glass down "I have to believe she will" I poured us both a glass as we drank together.

MOMENTS LATER

HEATHER'S P.O.V.

I was a good distance away from the village as I had set up camp as it was getting dark out as I was highly upset, why do they have to be that way? Why can't they understand that without mother I can't stay the connection me and my father had is long gone and now that my mother is gone there's no way that I can stick around.

I was frustrated and tired and my eyes felt heavy and it was time for me to get some sleep so I can get back into town in the morning as I was laying down ready for sleep to claim me in it's calming darkness as everything would disappear in it- my problems, my insecurities, my faith in others, it'll all just fade away into the darkness.

*BOOM*

That one sound woke me up instantly as I ran out the tent as I looked up the path to see nothing but behind me I saw flames as my eyes widened as I know that the woods is behind me and my old home...the village as I ran as fast as I could as I was feeling a headache coming.

As I ran it felt as if a blood vessel in my head was gonna pop but I ignored the feeling as I eventually had seen what I didn't expect, it was dead bodies everywhere but some wasn't from the fire as I seen the blade slashes on them then on my left as I sensed someone watching as I seen a white haired boy standing on the roof as his red eyes looked at me as his black trench coat swayed slightly in the wind.

Anger coursed through my veins as I looked at him and every second my blood boiled as I charged at him with a war cry and the second I was near I was pushed to the side as I looked up to see the village hero as his face held rage as I felt something cold and dark coming off him in waves "You need to go daughter of Zack, it's too dangerous for you right now" The sky was getting darker as I seen small red orbs circling around him as they touched him as I felt the darkness get even stronger 'He can control the negative energy around us!' I ran away from the battle like he asked as I headed towards a house I knew that was nearby.

Once I walked inside I seen my grandma as she was laid out on the floor as I rushed towards her as she started coughing upon contact "Grandma? Are you okay?" I sat her up as she was holding a book as it's a old leather book but it held a picture of a bird on the front "Child, you need to take this book and guard it with your life, it was from your mother and she wanted you to have it" I took it as I noticed that she was bleeding as I shook my head slowly as I heard loud booming outside.

"Go child before it's too late" I got up as I was about to pick her up only to see the life gone from her eyes as I shed a tear as I remembered the days where things was simpler as I began to step outside to see them fighting still but this time I seen the one thing that would make me cry as I seen my father bleeding out on the ground as the hero was carrying my baby sister as he was coming directly towards me and once he grabbed me he launched into the air 'Is he fleeing?' I looked down to see the attacker coming out the fire as he face still held no emotions.

"Why are you fleeing? Surely you can kill him" He clenched his teeth as he landed on another roof and once he jumped off he destroyed the house as we was nearing the woods in midair "He caught me off guard he hid himself as one of the villagers so I didn't think to check the scent and he wore their clothing on top his own and was already killing them off while having a illusion draw me away from the town" I was shocked to hear that as he was clearly upset as we hovered over the woods and been doing so for a while now.

"How exactly are you doing that?" He looked up at the moon as he looked at me "Your village got this hidden power within it, I absorbed the spirit of it because I was curious and to find out that it was a Phoenix and judging by that book and by feeling your half of that" I was shocked as we landed slowly to the ground as it was the only path out of town.

"So what now?" He started walking as he turned halfway to us "Now we head elsewhere, I can't allow you two be killed" I looked to my baby sister as she was obviously upset with the way her face looked as we started walking and with the way things are looking this is the start of a journey with Me, my Sister and Kimaru is this how things are supposed to be now? I still can't believe that I lost both of my parents.

Will this be the end for us or a fresh beginning only time will tell.

NEXT DAY

I woke up as we was somehow in a room as I woke up next to my baby sister who just waking up as well "Where are we?" The windows showed that it was morning and a beautiful day outside as I got up to see people outside as I was surprised then in came the unexpected as it was someone in black armor almost like a knight as his jacket black as well but the cuffs have grey fur as did the hood as his took it off including the helmet as it was the damn hero.

Once he opened it I seen a group of three as it was two women and a man as they stared at me and stared at them as I knew eventually I would have to get to know these people and become their allies as I kept my baby sister close 'How did I let things get this far out of hand? Is it now my fate to listen to the man my father maybe considered his son secretly?' A lot of thoughts coursed through my mind but I did know one thing and I know that I will survive for my sister.
