Report: Part II
“That’s impossible,” one of the Elders stood up and exclaimed. His face was full of fear, implying that it wasn’t that he didn’t find the information credible, but he didn’t want it to be.
Several elders echoed his sentiment. Sweat formed on their foreheads as they tried to deny Samoa’s words. They didn’t want to believe it was true. They would rather Samoa say it was just a joke than to accept this as the truth. They would be so relieved if he was just joking around that they wouldn’t even punish him. But they weren’t going to get what they wanted. Samoa’s face was full of pain. His eyes were filled with unwillingness, and just like the elders he wished the information was false. He would accept any punishment for it to be. But it wasn’t. He had seen the evidence for himself. Three of his comrades had died because of this evidence, so there was no way his hopes would be met.

Hunters: The Prequel Report: Part III
The village held a village meeting every week. These meetings were basically get-togethers, and the villagers spent time dancing and laughing with each other regardless of their status. Elders weren’t elders at that time, and the Village Head was also an average Joe during these meetings. If a Tiger was present at the meeting, he/she also would shed off that title for the night.The Ceremonial Fire was a bonfire that was lit to remember the sacrifices of the ancestors of the village. It served as a reminder to each generation that the village was standing because of the passionate sacrifices of those who came before. As the fire burned, an attendant constantly added kindling to keep it going. The tinder added represented the names of villagers who had lost their lives. Since each person died once, the fire burned for them once, and never again. But the Village Head was promising Samoa that the fire would burn for his friends forever. It was a great promise weightier tha

“An evacuation? Isn’t that a bit of a stretch?”An Elder asked.“I don’t think so Elder. We are up against an Overflow that is dangerous enough to destroy a major city. I think this is the most viable option”But Samoa disagreed. He didn’t think his suggestion was over the top. This was a threat the village wasn’t equipped to face. It was true that they possessed several Predators, and that 15 of these Predators were fearsome Tigers directly under the command of the Village Head; but it wasn’t enough.If one was to count every single Predator at the village’s disposal, there would be 24. 15 of them were Tigers, and fell directly under the jurisdiction of the Village Head. The other 9 were under the jurisdiction of the Elders. But they weren’t Tigers. The 9 under the Elders were Cheetahs, Snakes and Mongooses. It was only by becoming a Tiger that one would fall under the command of the Villa

Back in the meeting room, the Elders and Village Head Fan were still having a meeting. Samoa was nowhere to be found. This meeting wasn’t one that he could partake in. Frowning Tiger had left to call the other Predators. Since it was decided that the village wouldn’t be evacuating and that they would stay and fight as one, the Village Head and the Elders had to plan their defense.“The village has 24 Predators, 75 Thrashers, 295 Animal Hunters, and 400 Soldiers. We have to know how many are available.”Village Head Fan furrowed his brows and said. On the table before him was a board. There were several pieces on the board. Some of these pieces were white, others were green, some were red and the last color present was blue. The green pieces littered the board, and were the most of all the pieces. The white pieces came next when it came to number. The blue pieces were about quarter of the number of white pieces and the red pieces were the fewest,
Hunters: The Prequel Arthur
The house of the Village Head was located at the centre of the village. It was a beautiful house with a large compound filled with ornamental plants. And it was also the only house in the village with two floors – the ground floor, and the first floor.The first floor had a huge balcony. If one stood atop the balcony, one would be able to survey the entire village without much issue. This was the reason why the only house with two floors in the village was given to the village head. It was made that way so that the leader of the village could easily observe everything happening in the village. This way if they were to be attacked, the Village Head would be able to see where the attack was coming from, from atop the first floor balcony. The other houses were one-floored, and expanding beyond that was an offense to the village’s security.Right now, there were two figures on the balcony. These two people sat on the ledge as they swung their feet. The cool bre

“Don’t call me that. It’s embarrassing.” Arthur said with a wry smile on his face. He looked out of sorts, and his expression caused Samoa to burst into laughter even in the current situation.“But you have to admit that it sounds pretty domineering. Besides, who asked you to be so charming,” Samoa laughed heartily as he teased his friend. Arthur blushed when he heard Samoa’s comments. Durandal was the name he was given when he became a Thrasher. Usually Thrashers were given the title of Boar or Bull depending on their personality, but Arthur was given a different name. It wasn’t because of his talent that he was given a different name. Rather, it was because of the family he belonged to.Arthur’s family was special. Village Head Fan was a genius, and even though he had passed his peak and was plateauing, he was still strong enough to handle multiple Tigers. That in itself was impressive. But Samoa heard that Villag
Hunters: The Prequel They Are Here
It had been some days since Samoa brought his dark report to the top brass of the village. In a span of 5 days, the village was enveloped in chaos and fear since the villagers found out about the Overflow that was coming. The first barrier to the evacuation was met when several of the villagers started riots and refused to comply with the evacuation protocol. People refused to believe that the top brass was so blind that it couldn’t see signs of an Overflow until now. And those who believed them thought they were pretty incompetent not to see it coming. They demanded that those in charge – those who were responsible for noticing signs of an Overflow – be punished and presented to the public. However, when they found out that those they wanted to see punished actually suffered more than they ever could – that they died – the riots calmed down.Finding out that 3 of the Enchanted Forest Scouting Party, which was the best the village had to offer, d

Rushing to the top floor of his building, Village Head Fan was able to see what was happening. The shaking ground was all the proof he needed that there was a Magical Beast Horde Coming this way, but higher grounds served to show him what was coming first. Right behind him were Frowning Tiger and Blistering Cheetah.Looking at the vast number of Middle and Low Class Magical Beasts that were approaching the village, Village Head Fan furrowed his brows in worry. But he didn’t dillydally in this kind of situation. He knew that time was of the essence, and every second wasted was equivalent to giving up the life of a villager.“Blistering Cheetah,” he called.“I am here to obey, Head Fan,” Blistering Cheetah answered quickly, refusing to take his eyes off the large entourage of beasts rushing out of the Enchanted Forest towards their village. There was no fear on his face, but he was anxious.“Gather the Predators under you
Hunters: The Prequel War
“Village Head Fan is late,” outside the Central Demarcation Line, Frowning Tiger looked towards the approaching beast horde with a grave expression. Next to him was Rash Tiger, whose jovial smile was nowhere to be found. Just like Frowning Tiger, Rash Tiger had a scowl on his face as he watched the stampede of Middle and Lower Magical Class Beasts draw closer and closer as each second whittled by.“He is. But he surely must have a good reason” Rash Tiger stated, his eyes glued on the beast horde. He didn’t even want to turn his eyes away for a second.“Were all the traps put in place,” Frowning Tiger asked? This time his statement wasn’t meant for Rash Tiger. It was meant for the handsome young man who stood behind him.“Everything was done as requested, Sir Frowning Tiger,” Samoa answered, with an anxious look on his face.Frowning Tiger nodded at Samoa’s response. This was a threat outsid
