Chapter 5: After Last Night
Xandra, Qudira, and Jacinta all stared at Nuria in complete fear. Aaron was staring at Aki not really knowing what to do. Xandra noticed another masked hunter from behind one of the village houses, she also heard another one land on top of a house and looked around the entire area to see that several masked hunters were around. Four of the masked hunters pulled out their longsword and surrounded Nuria making sure she did not move. A few others walked to their master's dead body, picked it up and started to carry it out of the village leaving Aki on her knees. Aaron started to walk to Aki but was stopped by two masked hunted pulling out their duel blades. Aki stood up, put her mask back on and started to walk to Aaron. She was about to walk past him but stopped next to him. She then took out a smoke bomb and placed it into his hand.
"Keep Nuria in your sights, signal me when I'm able to kill her. If you betray me I will kill you," Aki said to Aaron as she walked passed him.
Aaron watched her walk by. Aki then started to walk towards Nuria. Nuria just looked at her.
"I will kill you," Aki said with anger.
"I can't wait," Nuria replied with an evil grin.
Aki then threw down a smoke bomb and all of the masked hunters disappeared. Aaron jogged back to his friends as they all just stared at Nuria.
"Who did you kill?" Xandra asked Nuria.
"Nobody special," she replied.
"Don't lie to me, who did you just kill?!?" Xandra yelled the question again with anger.
"Xandra, don't push it," Aaron said to Xandra.
Xandra then stayed quiet. Aaron looked at Nuira.
"What was all of this about? They came for you for a reason, What is that reason?" Aaron asked Nuria.
'Well they don't really want me, they want my sister. But I have no idea where she is and they think I do, which is why they came here," Nuria answered.
"Why do they want your sister?" Jacinta asked curiously.
"Heck if I know, I'm trying to find her to so I can get some answers," Nuria replied with a shrug.
"Well, we are going to get some answers," Aaron announced.
His friends nodded in agreement.
"Fine but if you die its not my fault," Nuria said as she started to walk the house she was staying in.
The others followed her. A different hunter in Alloy armor found Silverwinds mask, pick it up and look at it.
Silverwind temple in the hidden village.
Masked hunters placed Silverwinds body in the middle of his resting room with Aki watching. Aki along with the few masked hunters got on their knees and sat on their legs.
"Thank you for all your teachings, Master Silverwind," Aki said with her eyes closed.
After a while, they all left the room. Aki was in her quiet resting room when her door was opened by a girl with a black cloak covering her body but not her face.
"Sorry I am late, I wanted to give you time alone," the girl said to her.
"That is understandable, thank you. I asked you to be here so you could send the message to the siblings, that their brother is dead." Aki said to the girl.
"I will, I will also tell them that you are the new Silverwind," The girl said.
"Thank you, Kumi," Aki thanked her.
(Kumi, Zinogre half breed)
"Of course, I will be back," Kumi said as she closed the door and left Aki.
Kumi then left the temple and started to walk to a hole just outside the village. She jumped into the hole that leads out into an open area. As she was falling from the hole she readied herself to land on the ground. She readied her claws, landed on the ground and started running on all fours to find Silverwinds siblings.
Morning in the Village
Villagers were cleaning up from what happened last night. A few hunters were sitting in the Village cafeteria talking about last night.
"That blood haired hunter was crazy, I was watching her dodge attack after attack like it was nothing, I've never seen anyone move that fast, not even a dual blade user," One hunter said to another.
"I believe she left this morning with those four others, I don't think they are friends of hers though," The hunter replied to the other hunter.
"I'm glad, I don't wanna stay in a village with that crazy lady," he said as he took a drink from his cup.
They continued their conversation. The Alloy armored hunter entered the cafeteria and took a seat at one of the tables. A server walked up to him holding a not a feather with ink.
"What can I get you this morning, Sir?" She asked.
The Hunter removed his helmet as said.
"Just some Gargwa Scrambled eggs and was water for now," He said putting his helmet down.
The server wrote down what he wanted and looked at him recognizing his face.
"Y..you're Dakota, Dakota Doi, Wealthy hunter, and survivor of the Gore Magala attack," The server said as she stared at his face.
(Dakota)
"That's correct, where did you hear that?" Dakota asked.
"My father was part of the search team who found you, they could not believe you were alive," she said.
"I was surprised myself," he replied with a chuckle.
"Well did you see what happened last night?" she asked curiously.
"I arrived here last night so I do not believe so," he told her.
"Well there was a whole battle that broke out, the entire village had to hide, a hunter and a Nargacuga were killed from what I heard," she said to him.
"Is that so?" Dakota asked as he looked in his bag to look at the mask that he found.
"If you were here you could have stopped it," she said thinking highly of him.
Dakota started thinking of what happened last night. He needed more answers to find the owner of the mask, but he is pretty sure the owner is the hunter who died last night.
