Enforcers

Father Darvin stood in his office as he slowly pulled a picture out of a cabinet. He let a deep and painful sigh escape his lips as he slowly fell to his chair.

"Why didn"t you listen..." The old man muttered out as he sat a picture down. The picture seemed to he some kind of drawing? In it, an orange crystal could be seen as well as several letters and numbers.

On closer inspection, it would appear that it was a blueprint for something?

Father Darvin let out another sigh as he clinched his teeth. "Why Yuesi..." He questioned to himself as he punched his desk due to frustration. "Why! Why! Why! What the h.e.l.l do I do Yusei!" He shouted out once again. "When they find out... When they see what I kept hidden..." He clenched his teeth as he stood up punching the wall. "My village... I worked hard to protect this land... I won"t let your mistake ruin it..." He said almost in a growl.

Father Darvin stood up wobbling slightly as he walked over to his door forcefully yanking it open. He nearly tripped out the door as he wandered into the hallway.

"Father Darvin..."

The Father stopped as he slowly turned to see who spoke. "Maudite..." He said slowly as his eyes locked onto the twelve-year-old girl.

"Yes..." Maudite said slowly as she took a step back. The man in front of her had a slight rose coloring to his checks... His eyes were gla.s.sy and he had a sway in his step. It wasn"t that hard to deduce that the Father was plastered. And judging by the look in his eyes he didn"t plan on stopping yet. Maudite gave a nervous gulp as she stepped back once more.

"Maudite..." Father Darvin said speaking the name again as he stared at the girl.

"Yes..." Maudite said again taking a third step back. She couldn"t tell if the man was actually seeing her, or if he was just mindlessly replying to reply. Despite that though the Father"s tired eyes stared into her innocent blue eyes.

Then slowly the man took a step forward. Then another. And another. "Maudite..." He said again though this time it almost came out as a growl. Then he marched towards her at full speed as he raised his hand up.

Maudite instantly squeezed her eyes shut as she grabbed onto the nice warm jacket Ken had given her to keep. The girl let out a whipped expecting a slap over the head but surprisingly it never came? Rather... She felt a gentle touch on the head as Father Darvin patted the girl on the head.

"Twelve years..." Father Darvin said slowly. "Twelve years, and yet I don"t think I"ve ever once shown you a hint of affection..."

"Father Darvin-" Maudite let out a squeak when the drunken man pulled her into a hug. Then he began to cry? He just broke down into tears as he clutched onto the girl.

"It"s so hard!" He said choking up. "Walking up everyday, knowing we could be wiped out by the Bestia Macht? Telling others to work on the village even though it"s pointless... Trying to keep things in check! Seeing you walking around, knowing what kind of cursed bloodline you come from!"

"What?"

"And knowing where we get our food from! How we grow it! It just hurts!" The old man said sobbing.

"He thinks he can cry after everything he did to use

Maudite reached out patting the old man on the head shutting her other self up instantly. "What do you mean?" She questioned. "It will feel better once you tell someone and let it all out?"

Father Darvin stopped crying suddenly as he sat there. "Maudite..." He said speaking in a serious tone. "I just realized. Twelve years and not once have I ever told you anything about your family..." He said slowly as he stood up. He let out a deep sigh. "Come with me..."

"What! My family?" Maudite said only to realize that Father Darvin was already marching off. She let out a slight yelp and started following after the b.u.mbling drunken Father.

Father Darvin, marched straight out the doors, and into the snow. Maudite hesitated but followed soon after. The two walked quickly past the rubble of what was once a village. Finally, after a few minutes, they arrived at a ma.s.sive hole in the ground.

The Father grabbed the hand of the twelve-year-old girl and didn"t hesitate to jump down causing them both to crash painfully to the ground.

The older man let out. groan but quickly stood back up as he dragged the girl over to a large stone wall. Then slowly he reached up and placed his hand on it.

"This... This was created by me..." The Father said muttering slightly. "Behind it... Behind it is where your father and mother died..."

Meanwhile...

"Holy s.h.i.t!"

"What the h.e.l.l!"

"Kitsune!"

"Thank G.o.d that wasn"t me!"

"Ken her off of me you"re heavy!"

Everyone stared in shock as a hand reached from the darkness of the cave and wrapped around the young fox n.o.ble, and just straight up yanked him kicking, and screaming into the dark abyss!

"G.o.d d.a.m.n it!" Jackson cursed out. "Alright! Let"s go get him!"

"We"re going in there!"

"Yes!"

"Like all of us at once? Wouldn"t it he smarter to split the party?"

"No!"

"Why?"

"Because I said so!" Jackson announced marching forward. "Now come on! We are not letting Kitsune die to whatever the h.e.l.l took him!"

"Wow..." Irene said slightly surprised. "I thought he hated Kitsune?"

"s.h.i.t, s.h.i.t, s.h.i.t! If Kitsune dies, then Katrina will skin me alive!" Jackson thought in pure panic mode.

"What happened to everything being dead!" Ken shouted in a panic.

"Hey!" Anga said throwing his arms up. "It was trapped for twelve years! How the h.e.l.l was I supposed to know it would be alive?"

"Well, what the h.e.l.l is it anyways?" Cloud questioned.

"How should I know!"

"Everyone shut up!" Zero shouted causing everyone to stop. "Look! We are all going in there at the same time, and getting that boy back! It doesn"t matter what is in the cave. If we all team up on it, then it really won"t matter!" He shouted out.

"I guess..." Hero said shrugging.

"Can I sit you down now?" Anga asked staring at Hero, and Ken who were still both in his arms.

"Sure..." Hero said jumping out of Anga"s arms. "I do agree with Zero"s plans though." He said as he dropped Ken to the floor. "Also. We are probably just wasting time! Let"s go now before anything happens."

Everyone took a deep breath and quickly walked forward into the darkness. They didn"t have time to consider what they were getting themselves into. Kitsune was in trouble right now. He probably wouldn"t appreciate it if the group let him die simply because they were scared.

Then again if he did die then he wouldn"t really be caring about the group now would he?

The party moved forward all of them practically jogging as they all went down a sloping straight hill. It went down, at an almost awkward angle. There was nothing but pitch darkness... Finally, though a small light could be seen up ahead.

It looked almost like fire?

"Kitsune!" Ken said with realization The group hurried forward finally finishing the slope as they came into a large open room...

The room was extremely large. Nearly half a mile big... The roof was visible but was still extremely high. The room looked to be made out of polished stone? The room was also filled with several large stone pillars. It was all really confusing, but one thing was for sure.

Whatever this room was, it was man-made...

Light-filled the room from several orbs of fire. Up above the ground, they heard a panicked yell as the body of Kitsune came crashing down. He was back in his Nine-Tailed form, so he was apparently the culprit behind the light, as the fire made from his tails, and ears, lit up the area in an orange glow...

"Kitsune?" Irene said when she saw a quick look of fear in Kitsune"s eyes as he looked at them. No... Not them. But rather the thing behind them. "Uh oh..." Irene said slowly as she could feel a pair of eyes on her from behind.

The whole group could in fact...

They all slowly turned around and they finally saw it... The monster.

It stood at 6" 4" feet tall, and had long frail-looking arms and legs. Its joints looked kind of weird and were snapped differently allowing them to bend in ways human arms simply couldn"t. The creature had an almost human-looking head, but it was missing a nose... The entire thing also had extremely flesh that was almost as white as the snow, and a pair of horns on its head that looked to be covered in what looked like a dark blue metal? It had two glowing orange eyes that seemed to light up in the dark. It had a stupid amount of teeth causing its face to he stuck in a permanent smile. A blue aura covered its body as it slowly c.o.c.ked its head at the group who all stared at it with shock, and fear.

But it wasn"t the creatures appearance that was scaring them. Yes, the thing did look absolutely creepy, but that wasn"t what bothered any of them.

No.

What bothered them was what it was wearing.

Yes. This thing was wearing clothing, showing off the terrifying fact that it wasn"t a Bestia Macht. This thing was a human...

And the clothing it was wearing.

A ripped up, and heavily stained, lab coat...
