The Man with White Hair

Alexis

I peeked out from around the oak tree I was standing behind, so I could catch a glimpse of the man who destroyed my village. I made sure I only stuck my head out far enough that I could see him. He had striking white hair that was just over shoulder length long. I could not see his face because he was turned but I did see he was wearing a long sleeved shirt and around the elbow, his shirt slit open down the rest of his arm. His pants were black and they flared out at the feet.

I slowly pulled out my sword. There would be only one chance to take him. I closed my eyes and thought about my family’s faces. I heard him stop moving; I steadied my blade, took a deep breath, and stepped out from behind the tree.

He didn’t turn at once but kept his back to me “Can I help you?” I growled, “Only thing you can do to help me is die.” He didn’t even flinch “And why is that?”
“My family!”
“I have no quarrel with you or your family. I don’t even know you.”
“Liar! You destroyed the village of Laso and that included my family!” He didn’t say anything so I took it as a sign that he was remembering, I sneered “Do you remember then?” This time he turned to face me, his eyes looking me over “Yes, I remember quite well in fact.” I didn’t let my face change “Before I kill you I would like to know one thing.” A smile played on his lips “Oh, what’s that?”
“All I want to know is why, why did you kill them?” He sighed, “Well, I think it’s because one of them ticked me off. Ah, yes, a guy named Nathan was the one.”
“What did he do?”
“He wouldn’t leave me alone so I killed him and others got involved and wait just a second why didn’t I kill you?” Regret and guild filled my face before I could stop them “I had gone to another village for something for my mother.” I put my sword out in front of me “Enough talk, it’s your time to die.” I came at him, swinging my sword to the right. He looked as though he dissolved, then reappeared behind me “Shall we make a wager on this battle?” I swung again and he dodged, I growled, “I don’t see why not.” He came at me and I jumped back, he smirked “Shall we say this is what will happen: If you win, you can kill me, but if I win, you get to be my servant for six months. Deal?”
“Deal.”

here is for the ppl who already read the first part

I swung my sword from right to left but he jumped straight up. I jumped up after him and nailed a kick to his gut. He laughed and disappeared. He reappeared on the ground next to a tree “Well, well, she’s got some skill. Wouldn’t you say?” Another voice entered the little talking spree “I do say so master but why would you want a human as a servant, especially a girl.” I threw a look at the thing behind the voice. It was a 3’4” Maneka. It hid behind a tree “Mmmaster.” I heard him laugh “Don’t worry Lecto, she can’t kill you.” I flipped around, threw a punch at his stomach, and he backed up. All the sudden he was right in front of me, his hand came up and curled around my neck. He pushed me back against a tree and got right up next to me, he put his head next to my ear “You know what: I like someone who can stand up for themselves.” I put my hand on his stomach and put my fingers between his ribs “It’s time for you to BACK up.” I pushed hard and he stepped back and grabbed his side “You don’t know when to give up, do you?” I smiled and brought up my right food to kick him. He grabbed my leg and flipped me over. I landed hard on my back; he got on his knees over my stomach and put his hand on my throat “Now will you give up.” I shook my head “No!”
“Then you are going to pass out and when you wake up I’ll have won the wager.” His hand tightened around my neck. The last thought before my world went dark was ‘how is this guy so strong, how?’

My eyes flickered open to see twinkling stars in the night sky. I sat up slowly, grabbing my throat with my hand and trying to swallow. The guy stuck out a bottle of water “Here.” I took it from him and drank deeply.

After a few minutes of uncomfortable silence, I spoke “So, um, what is your name anyway?” He grunted, “You didn’t even know my name yet you came to kill me.” I cleared my throat “So, what is your name?” He leaned back against a tree; his eyes closed “My name is Alec. What’s yours?”
“My name is Alexis.” He took a deep breath in and let it slowly out. I glanced at the fire “So, what are my duties to you?” Alec mumbled “Tomorrow.” I smiled and laid my head back down, closing my eyes.

As the sun came over the horizon, my eyes opened. Alec was nowhere to be found, so I was stuck with a sleeping Maneka. I stood up; it was a beautiful crisp morning. I felt something behind me and turned, Alec was standing at a tree “Lecto, wake up!” The little Maneka jumped up “What master, what?”
“Can you smell that?” Lecto sniffed the air several times then jerked his head back “It smells like Raco. How long has his sent been close?”
“To long.” I sat silently listening to the conversation, Alec glanced at me “I suppose you would like to know what we are talking about?” I shrugged my shoulders “I figured I would ketch on eventually.” No expression played on his face so I knew I needed to be careful about what I said. Lecto grabbed his little cane and stood next to Alec “What do you plan to do with this “human”?” All he did was stare at me.

Finally he sighed “She can come with us but you need to watch her, Lecto.” I raised my eyebrows “I honor my promises. I won’t run but you might want to watch your back.” Lecto’s eyes got huge and he freaked “You can’t talk to master Alec like that! Master Alec she can’t talk to you like that!” I looked at Lecto weird “I can talk to either of you however I want.” Lecto slowly turned Alec. I was kind of getting nervous. Alec turned and started walking down the road. Lecto followed close behind. I waited a few seconds, sighed, and followed.

After about ten minutes of walking, Alec stopped “We should see him come out right there.” He pointed to the left of the river. All the sudden a guy looking similar to Alec came out from the left of the river. He stopped when he saw us. Three others came out behind him. The guy, Raco, put his arm out in front of one of the girls. Raco spoke first “What are you doing here, Alec?”
“Wondering what you are doing here.” Raco caught my eye “And who’s this?” Alec stepped in his line of sight “How is your Mestalgo doing?” Raco growled, a smile played on Ales’c lips. Lecto spoke “Master Alec wants to know where Chikao is.” The other guy who had come along with Raco smirked “Apparently Alec needs someone to talk for him now.” One of the two girls, also with Raco, hit him on the shoulder. I smirked and Lecto jerked back at me so I stopped. Raco drew his sword “Do you have any information about Chikao?” Lecto growled, “I just asked you the same question!” Alec put his hand on Lecto’s shoulder “Enough Lecto.” He turned his head toward Raco “Little Brother, how fairs your search for the crystals?”
“It’s none of your business.”
“So, you lost them all to Leah and she gave them to Chikao, right?” I could see Raco’s face tighten at the name of Leah. I peaked my head around Alec “Yo, Raco, how many what are these crystals?” The girl who had hit the other guy on the shoulder cringed “Well, the crystals run these worlds but he’s still missing a few.” Raco glanced at the girl “He doesn’t need to know a thing.” Alec chuckled “I wasn’t even the one asking.”
“Yeah, but you put the questions in her head.”
“Gee whiz brother I don’t brain wash people. Besides this girl here tried to kill me yesterday and I didn’t know her before that.”
“Why the heck is she standing behind you then?”
“We made a deal.”
“You made a deal with a human that would keep her with you?” Alec sighed “You know what, we could fight about this all day but instead I have one question to ask.”
“What?”
“Have you ever come in contact with a Hemolo named Katsutoshi?”
“Katsutoshi. I don’t think so but you never know.” Alec rolled his eyes and turned “This was a waste of time and energy.” He started walking down the river, Lecto following close behind. I stayed for a second and looked at Raco “Are you his little brother.” He looked at me weird “Yeah, did he really make a bet with you?” I nodded, he shook his head “That’s very unnatural of him.” Lecto yelled “Human, come.” I turned and started after them, yelling “I have a name.”
“Get over it human.”
“Humph.”
