Hunters: The Prequel Caged?: I
With a massive boom and a loud blast that could only be matched by the deafening yet chaotic sound of a nuclear missile, an axe as large as – if not larger than – Pathfinder, appeared in his hand. The axe was as red as the crimson of his eyes, and its blade dripped with blood as though it was a conduit for a bloody stream. When that weapon speared in his hands, the atmosphere of the battlefield changed.“To think that he had a weapon all this while,” the female Wind Demon murmured as she slowly stepped back to adopt a more defensive posture.If before it felt as though Pathfinder was being bullied with numbers, now it felt as though he was the one bullying them! It was like placing a quality painting against ten inferior ones. There was no way one would pick the inferior ones, even as a collection, over the top quality one.“Why did he not reveal his weapon from the very beginning then? Was he looking down on us?” the bulky Wind Demon thought as a fury surged within the depths of his

In battle, momentum was very important. For it was momentum that birthed morale, and morale birthed courage while instilling fear in the heart of opponents. While for certain enemies, instilling fear was impossible, the effect of an increased morale could not be negated. People did things that they would not have done otherwise when they were chockfull of courage and emptied of fear. They took risks they would not even think about on a normal day. Wind Demons were foes that did not know fear. They who had served underneath the banner of the Wind Demon King had fought against the strongest of beings Cree had to offer. Pathfinder was not enough to bring them to their knees in fear; however, that did not matter when the person in question had lost all inhibitions due to the momentum he had built up. The smile on Pathfinder’s face and the fire that he was surprisingly able to control, had put him in a great spot, and he was brimming with confidence right now.*Boom*Pathfinder dashed forw

“Insane B*st*rd” the female Wind Demon cursed silently. She saw through his intentions as swiftly as a hare bolted from the arms of a predator. She could not help but be surprised by Pathfinder’s decision, given that this was not something that the normal person would do – or even try to attempt for that matter.“Barbarians are indeed as crazy as they say they are,” she mumbled silently as he eyes glowed bright green. The elements of wind baptised her in their love, causing the cloak that she had summoned from the strength of these very same elements to shimmer brighter than it had all this while. Surprisingly, even after seeing through Pathfinder’s intentions, she did not retreat. Contrary to what one would have expected, she went forward with her attack!While one would have regarded her decision a silly one, one had to remember that she was not alone; she had never been alone from the beginning.*Boom*A powerful wind pressure that Pathfinder was all too familiar with descended upo

“This feeling…” the lanky Wind Demon clutched his chest as his heartbeat began to rise rapidly. His face which had been neutral all this time, containing little or no emotion, began to flush red as his lips curled into a maniacal smile.“…it’s like those times” the female Wind Demon whose actions had cast Pathfinder into his current predicament was also smiling widely. Her hands were trembling strongly, and her eyes were filled with a strong desire for battle. The bloodlust that she had not shown any sings of having, suddenly bulged out and covered her entire frame like a blanket, causing a few Wind Demons that were around her to grow stiff in fear.“To think he would bring us such a sight…and awaken the dormant desire within our hearts,” the lanky Wind Demon chuckled and grabbed his blade. The hand that gripped his fan clenched the handle of the unusual weapon tighter, exposing the throbbing veins on his arm.It was such an uncomfortable sight. While surrounded by the flames of Rigor

“You have quite the subordinate there,” Chief Priest Kaka chuckled as he tore his eyes away from Pathfinder’s battle. His laughter was disturbing and unique, and anyone would have felt chills crawl down their lengthy spines had they heard it. Well, it was a good thing then that the person he was facing was not just anyone.“He is not a subordinate,” the Barbarian Primogenitor shook her head with a chuckle as well. “Well, he was in the past. Now he is a comrade.” She added before gently turning her neck and stretching her arms. She looked like a woman who was only interested in some yoga practice.“You don’t seem worried. He is grossly outnumbered and those he is facing are freaks who would do anything to get the job done.” Chief Priest Kaka didn’t seem to mind the preparations that his opponent was making. His gaze rested upon the figure of the Wind Demon standing next to him with a vacant expression on his face – Village Head Samoa.“Well, my guy is also a freak,” then Primogenitor l

Along with the flaring of her aura, the ambience of the battlefield changed. The formerly jovial atmosphere became as sharp as the sting of a scorpion. The primogenitor’s action was much akin to a domino effect, for the dormant and calm ‘puppets’ next to Chief Priest Kaka came alive when they sensed the threat of the strongest Barbarian to have ever lived! While it was true that Pathfinder was the first and only Barbarian to cleave his path out of the physical realm into the elemental stage, the Primogenitor’s battle intent was like a flame that burned brighter than the flames of Pathfinder. A visible red aura oozed out of her pores, wafting around her like the sweet aroma of a maddened beast. Her eyes, though beautiful, screamed murder, and her lips curled into the most dangerous arc known to mankind. She who knew the importance of taking the lead in battle immediately dove to action.*Boom*With a stamp of her foot she rushed forward, her eyes fixed on Chief Priest Kaka but her sens

The ‘revived’ Wind Demons moved towards Red Rose with blank expressions – at least, the one that still its head screwed on tight. The Wind Demon which had its head cleanly knocked off was moving without a head while the one that had its neck shattered was jogging gallantly with its head hanging to its side. It did not look bothered in any way. As for the other two that were unharmed thus far, talking about them was unnecessary. They were obviously good enough to fight.Looking at the Wind Demons who were approaching her deftly although they were devoid of life, Red Rose frowned in annoyance. The ‘zombies’ that were moving towards her were not showing any of the sluggishness that the undead were famed for. They moved with vigour and dynamism, and there was nothing awkward about their motions. If there was anything that could be described as awkward, it would be their appearance and their unpredictable movement. While it was true that they were moving swiftly, they moved like animals, s

What could be described as cataclysmic? An infant’s piercing cry or the pain wrought by failing a test? A cat’s unrelenting rage or the pursuit of a deeply psychological childhood trauma? People judged chaos differently. For one it would be the loss of his or her laptop a few days before an important term paper was due. For another, it would be the loss of a cherished parent and being forcefully thrust into the world of the unknown with no social support. While one despaired at the thought of losing her child, another relished the thought of being rid of a burden. In the end, what people regarded as chaotic was relative. One’s well garnished meat was akin to chow dipped in the poisonous fang of a snake to another. However, even amidst all of this, there were some circumstances that were judged as destructive regardless of the difference in opinion that people shared. These were matters that affected everyone and could destroy everything. Classic examples would be the firing of a nucle

Hunters: The Prequel Arriving at Godking Academy
“This…is amazing,” Mane’s eyes widened as he took in the sight before him.The young Supreme was seated on Roxanne. The beautiful dark horse had been granted the power of flight by Crystal who had no trouble casting a flight Lease on the lovely beast. While this was not a permanent condition, it would last hours, and that was thanks to Crystal’s expert command over Chaos. Any other person would have been able to cast this Lease for just under a few minutes. Mane was no exception to this. Even if his power was not sealed, he would not be able to use this Lease to liberally. If this Lease was that practical, it would have been popularized.Next to him, Professors Stern and Stanley, and Dean Desmond had smile plastered on their faces as they watched the Supreme’s gobsmacked reaction to the impressive sight before him. Behind the professors were the students, both old and new. While the older students, Kahn, Frost, Bel, and Maia were floating on their own, the new students had to be envel
Hunters: The Prequel Brothers Reunited
“What a brilliant welcome,” Poseidon slowly moved towards the teenage looking Zeus and Atlas with a broad smile on his face.The god of the waves floated elegantly upon a bident, his eyes briefly scanning Atlas before finding his brother’s immature figure.“You have grown weak, brother,” Poseidon chuckled as he slowly flew towards his brother.Atlas, who had been on guard since Poseidon’s appearance, frowned upon seeing the god of the waves getting closer to a much weaker Zeus. His figure flashed as he appeared before Zeus, shielding him from the gaze of his own blood brother. “You have fallen low brother. Now, you require the protection of a titan? Hilarious.” Poseidon mocked as he locked eyes with the delicate looking Atlas. “Of course I have fallen. Not only was I betrayed by my own son, but I also almost died. What did you expect will happen when one who is considered as part of the big three of Olympus approaches a fallen god?” Zeus did not mind his brother’s comments.Instead
Hunters: The Prequel Departure and Arrival
Days passed and soon it was time for Mane to leave the planet of the Celestial Emperor. Well, he wasn’t the only one leaving. It was time for the professors to return to their academies with their students – both old and new. In front of the portal that could transport them back to their academies, Mane stood with his friends as they bid each other goodbye. Well, something close to that at least. To give them some privacy, the other professors had gone on ahead with the students, standing a few tens of meters away from the Silver Wolves.“Our great Supreme, our captain and leader, the Unbended is finally leaving us. Whatever are we to do?” Abe waved his hands theatrically as he feigned sadness and pain.His words caused Selina and the twins to snicker. Only Aegeus snorted before shooting Abe a deathly stare. As for Mane, he could only smile wryly at Abe’s comments. He didn’t know when it had started since he had been away for so long in the Dreamscape, but Abe had become more easy goi
Hunters: The Prequel Way Forward
It took a week for Godking to complete its assignment and soon, Mane was back on Planet Celestial. Walking through the streets of the capital, he noticed that he was receiving a lot of stares. While it wasn’t unusual for people to stare at him given his appearance and his ethereal aura, that was only on Zandor. One could argue that it was because he didn’t look like a Celestial, but that was not accurate either. Since Celestials opened their homes to others who craved entry into the God Academies, they had welcomed several different species into their home world. Mane wasn’t not out of place in this new era, meaning there were definitely staring for another reason.“You have become very popular, young Supreme,” Professor Stern who was walking next to Mane chuckled and said.“Hahaha! The recordings that were taken of you should have spread everywhere by now. Even those who were unable to attend the event know who you are!” Professor Stanley laughed heartily while striking the young Sup
Hunters: The Prequel What Was Gained
“You are still eating, even after all that happened?” Hildegarde frowned and said.She was looking at the boy who had forcefully taken her with him when he was returning to his realm with a disapproving gaze. They had escaped that world that had been prepared as his burial place. As though it had never happened, they had returned to the exact spot he had been teleported from – the kitchen. Hildegarde was confused about his current reaction.Seeing him biting onto his tuna sandwich caused her eyebrows to lift in frustration. It was the very same meal that Mane had made and had barely taken a bite of when he was transported to another world. And yes, that was not a dream; it had really happened. She couldn’t understand how the Supreme could be so calm after coming out of a life-or-death situation.“What would you have me do then? Toss it into the trashcan? That would be a waste of food.” Mane answered nonchalantly as he wiped some fish from his cheek.“That…” Hildegarde searched for wor
Hunters: The Prequel The Woman and the Cat
There were many things that could not be understood in this world, regardless of the amount of logic that one’s mind could process at any given moment, there were things that befuddled even the most brilliant minds. One of such brilliant minds – no, two of these – was staring into the sky full of stars with a torn expression on his face. This man – nay, this god – was the trickster and master shapeshifter, Loki. But he wasn’t alone.“What are you thinking about?”“Many things.”“The great Loki has more than one troubling issue? This is interesting. Odin would have laughed at the absurdity of such a statement; but looking at your expression, it seems to be true.”“It is arrogance to assume that one can solve all one’s problems with one’s mind alone. Why do you think I sought you?”“Isn’t it greater arrogance to presume that two would be enough?”“But its not just two is it? One is the mind of Odin and the other is the mind that Odin sought.”“You say you aren’t arrogant, but you do not
Hunters: The Prequel Dan's Rescue: II
He moved quickly, his feet gliding across the floor soundlessly as he reached the Earth Realmer’s unguarded back. He opened his mouth and spat out a dagger, sending it flying towards the neck of his enemy. Before he was spotted by one of the Profound Realmers, his dagger had already pierced the Earth Realmer’s neck, and the latter was grasping at his neck furiously, almost like he could seal the hole and return his blood to his body by doing so.“Intru-“*Puchi*Dan swiftly waved his hands, changing the direction of his dagger and sending it flying into the neck of the Profound Realmer who had tried to sell him out. As he did so he was already sweeping his foot towards the abdomen of another enemy.*Boom*The stunned guard was sent flying into the wall and coughing up blood before he could fully understand what was going on. By this time, the last guard had finally caught up. He dashed towards Dan quickly, drawing his sword in the process. Without any hesitation he swung his blade at
Hunters: The Prequel Dan's Rescue: I
“There really is no one impressive here,” Dragon King Bast stated as his sword sliced through a Noble as easily as cutting through tofu.“I knew he said he will make sure this place is left almost unguarded, but this is incredible,” Captain Hafiz muttered as he watched the disciplined legion of warriors beelining into their path.While he spoke calmly, his rioting aura and the violence being radiated in his eyes showed his eagerness for war. He was not the only one expressing such deathly intent. Every member of the Sun Squad was ready to go wild, their eyes gleaming just as dangerously as their captain.“Why are you people talking so much. Let’s fight!” Monkey King Hanuman roared out and jumped towards the approaching legion.While the others were a bit taken aback that there were none of the Skies here to face them, Monkey King Hanuman didn’t care about that. Last he remembered, several of the Skies had died on his planet, leaving only the strongest behind. Since Loki said he would
Hunters: The Prequel Breakout!
Back in the Dreamscape Universe, there was a war raging. While it wasn’t overt, citizens in every world could feel that the drums of war had been brought out. They had not been embroiled in chaos yet, but they knew that soon the drum beaters will strike down, announcing the start of another war, and this world would fall into disorder again.The one who stood at the centre of this war were preparing in their own right. Within the camp of ‘good’, Loki, Ananse, and Zica, gathered allies. So far they had attracted the likes of the Barbarian Primogenitor, Red Rose, and some of the Barbarian Ancestors. Destiny and Pathfinder were here along with a few other unknown ancestors. As if that wasn’t enough, the Barbarian Lord, Magma, and his Flames, had also escaped the confines of their home to join this war. They weren’t the only ones that had stepped up though. The Elementals had not hesitated to send their best as well. Ancestor Spector had arrived with a few other ancestors from Amalgamatio
