Prologue

Somewhere in this world, in a deserted alley, there was a boy no more than 11 years old. He was running frantically. As if he was running away from something. But, what was it? What were they?

Half running and panting at the same time, he glanced behind him several times. Every time he did that, his eyes widened with fear. There's nothing behind him, were there? Then why was he running so desperately?

This mystery…let's leave it to the boy first, shall we?

He was running. If he stops, he'll die. He can't see them, but he can feel them. Something dangerous, something that belongs to the darkness, something that is not supposed to be on middle earth is out here somewhere, hunting him, wishing him dead.

He knows the reasons. He always does. But right now, he doesn't care, not yet.

Suddenly, he tripped and falls down face first onto the ground.

He quickly picks himself up. Unconsciously, he gripped his injured knee. He looked at his knee. "ugh…" he said, still looking. The cut was deep and it wasn't pretty. A lot of blood was flowing out from it. He can feel his tears flowing. Furiously, he wiped them away.

He conjured up all his courage and began to run again, but this time, more slowly. Half limping and half running, he strained his ears. He could hear harsh breathing and sound behind him. They are gaining on him!

"No. please…" he murmured desperately. Suddenly, something clamps onto his mouth and pull him backwards. Without even giving him the chance to whimper or cry, he could feel himself being pushed against the wall.

He closed his eyes tightly, waiting for the final blow to come. But somehow it didn't. Slowly, he opened his eyes.

There was a something in front of him. Human? He though. He looked closely at the person. Even with the help of the moonlight, he still couldn't see the person's face. But he could see the outline. Well, only a little bit. Surprisingly, that person wasn't facing him.

"Don't make a sound." The person whispered.

He looked at the person, bewildered.

"Gio-nii?"

Giotto was out buying groceries. As he was taking his sweet, sweet time walking and softly humming by the street, his eyes fell onto some movements. He froze in his place and looked towards the movements.

It was a boy. And this boy was not some random kid on the street. It was Tsuna.

Tsuna~ (Giotto's heart skipped a beat)

Anyway, Tsuna was running and not so far behind him was… Giotto rubbed his eyes and looked at the creatures again. He frowned. Those creatures don't look like demon. No. These are more fearsome. Even his Hyper Intuition screamed dangerous alert, which wasn't a good sign.

Those things somehow look like a hound but weren't. They are somehow bigger and have…horns? They were coated with thick black furs and have the red, exanimate eyes. And the most important thing of all was: they were chasing Tsuna. His beloved little Tuna.

Well, of course the moment he saw the expression on Tsuna's expression, fear, he sprinted into action. Within a flash, he reached Tsuna and quickly pulls Tsuna to safety. (Groceries got abandoned)

He could see the bewildered look on Tsuna's face and couldn't help but to chuckle softly. He pulled Tsuna to a deserted alley. Hands still covering Tsuna's mouth, he turns towards the creatures. Eyes fixed on them, he told Tsuna to keep quiet. (Hands removed from mouth.)

"Gio-nii?" Tsuna asked, bewildered.

"Shhh…" Giotto said, eyes still fixed on the creatures. The creatures stopped and looked at Giotto and then at Tsuna.

Giotto can see them…Tsuna though. He can see them!

"You're not from here." Giotto said at those things. "Leave." He said, in a very commanding voice which was full of authority. One if heard this can't help but will admire what he had said just now. It was simply…amazing.

Tsuna being a naïve little boy, looked at Giotto in awe. Giotto-nii is so cool~ (eyes glittering) As he could only sense the creatures, he had sense the "fear aura" from those things. Even though it was just for a brief moment.

The creatures back up a little bit and then stood firm at their places. They are looking at Giotto very intensely. As if they were studying him.

A few seconds later, the creatures position themselves and sprang. Giotto, who had predicted this would happen simply just sighed, dropped his groceries and whispered to Tsuna. "Stay here"

In a flash, he was standing in front of the creatures. And everything happened too fast. One moment the creature in front of Giotto was fine and untouched. The next, it was laying on the ground, blood coming out from his throat.

The rest of the creatures stopped at their paces and looked at their dead comrade. Fear was seen in their eyes.

They had wanted to run from the very beginning. The moment when the blond had commanded them. They know he is very dangerous. Yes. He may be even more dangerous than master.

But they know, if they fail, they'll die horribly. And their families would be dragged into this too.

Like their master had said. Successful or die trying. That's the only opinion they had. Run away? One would suggest. Well, yeah. It had been tried. And it didn't end well. Instead, it ends horribly. All of the creature's family, friend and foe alike were killed. Their bodies hanged at the Altar. What's the worth of having freedom if all of your loves one were dead because of you? Will you feel good? Happy? No, we wouldn't.

Ever since then, none had tried to escape. None.

So, as you see, they're not idiots. But they had feared for the safety of their families. That is the nature of a Segugi Nero. They used to be a creature that wouldn't care less to humans and some other creatures as long as they didn't have the intent to hurt the creatures' families. But ever since master came…things had... changed.

Now, they had braced themselves and face the blond. For the sake of their families…they'll die trying. For the sake of their families…

Human. If you can, for your friend's sake and also our families', please defeat our master. And save our kind from falling into the his hands… please... help our families.
