The Hunter

Brenton finally decided to work in his office. If he had stayed in there he would have probably worn a rut in the floor, and he needed to do something, anything. He began searching the books looking for anything that could have caused such devastation. He settled on a very ancient tomb of creatures that where now mostly long gone extinct. He thumbed through it mind struggling to remember its ancient runes when he settled on one page. He stood suddenly taking the heavy book with him. A creature his ancestors had slain for it would have destroyed the world with its bloodlust looked back at him, a Shade.

Treasca rose slowly, she did feel much better now that she had gotten a full night's rest, but her burns hurt with a sharp pain. It took her several minutes to remember where she was.She blushed realizing she had slept the entire night in Brenton's bed. He was no where to be seen though so she decided to go looking for him. She opened the office door, and found him surrounded by scrolls, books, and tombs. The office looked as if a bomb had gone off. Brenton didn't look up at her, but instead spoke darting from thing to thing.

"I figured put what caused the devastation. It was a Shade! Can you believe it! That Neal thing you met was likely him, they are made of smoke and can take on nearly any form." Brenton said in a huge rush.

"Why do you sound so excited about this?" She asked puzzled.

"This is the most danger I have been in in years. I crave a good fight. See I knew the moment I saw you that you would make my life interesting again." He darted to her grabbed her by the shoulders and kissed her swiftly before darting around the room again.

"You are insane." She said face so red she could feel the heat.

"No, well maybe, but this is going to be one hell of an adventure." He said beaming at her.
