Strena Youngest Bounty Hunter Arc Part Two

The Job

Strena was glad that she was able to save her friend and even more that she did not recognise her. This meant that Zaryb did not kill her the moment that they had done rescuing her. This put her in a good mood. She even had a better nights' sleep. So when she woke up she was feeling very refreshed as she ran down the stairs feeling quite happy for a long time. She even hummed as she paid for her breakfast.
“Bacon and beans please!” she said.
She then felt the butt of a wooden mug hit her on the head.
“What're you so happy about?”
“The job! And I'm buying my first breakfast!” she said.
“And what is it?” he asked.
“Bacon and beans.” she replied.
He then turned to the cook.
“Then make certain to add cooked tomatoes.”
“But I don't like those!”
“I know.” he said as he smirked. “But you need to eat some more vegetables. Now while he's cooking that pick another job.”
She nodded as she walked over to the board and she looked for the cheapest thing that she could find on the board, knowing that it was going to be an easiest and took it.

Missing Dog

Help me find my puppy
Benny. He was last seen
by the river in my back
garde. He had not been
seen since.
She showed Zaryb the poster. He only skimmed it and placed it down.
“This one's easy.”
“So when do we get ready for it?” she asked as the breakfast came to her table.
“We don't.”
“Why?”
“Because we don't accept these jobs.”
She frowned out of confusion.
“Why not?”
“Because, it's a waste of time and it's easy to deduce what happened.”
“What?” she asked slightly upset.
“The dog got too close and drowned.” he said.
She felt hurt by that.
“But why don't we at least find the body?”
“No.”
“Why not? Won't it help them?”
“It would but I can't have you getting sentimental.” he said.
“What does that mean?” she ashed.
“What?”
“Senti...”
“Sentimental?”
“Yeah.”
“Get a dictionary.”
“What's-”
He threw a book at her. She looked down to see the word dictionary on. She frowned.
“A book?”
“Yes, a book now go and pick another, I think that you aught to pick that poster there.” he said pointing to the top right.
“But I can't reach up there!”
“Then go for one that you can reach.” he said.
“Alright.” she said as she walked up to the board again she snatched the closest out of anger. She then showed him. He took one glance at it.
“That is too difficult for you at the moment.” he said.
She looked at it and then read it.

Find The Lost Dragon Egg

300,00o Emeralds and 1 Ruby

Help Dron find his wife's dragon
egg, taken by a bunch of bandits
by the name of the Hunger
Highwaymen. They have not
been seen since.

“How would you know?” she asked.
“The Hunger Highwaymen are one of the notorious highwaymen out there and if they ever saw you they'd rip you to shreds like a pack of starving wolves.” he said as he finished his drink.
She returned to her breakfast and soon finished it. She then walked up and spotted one that sounded like it was put there for a joke but she came to the conclusion that, that was the one to pick.

Magic Duck Missing

100,000 Rubies

Find Betraror the
anthropomorphic
talking duck which is
said to have magic
powers. Return him
to the alchemists that
created him.

She then returned to the table as she laughed all the way.
“What has you in a laughing fit? “ he asked.
“This!” she laughed as she passed him the poster. He read it and was also laughing along with her.
“That is funny, but I do think that it is being serious about this one. Although, I can't believe that someone would actually do something like that!” he laughed. “Alright, we'll be going.”
They were still laughing as they packed and were soon off. They soon found out that Betraror was in the nearest town to their tavern. They opened the door and walked right up to the duck, which was, which was mainly covered in a black cloak to keep his true shape concealed, however his beak poking out gave away the truth.
She had to laugh as she saw his wings carried the cards in his wings like fingers made of feathers. He placed a pipe in his beak down parallel to his cards. The tip of his beak stretched into a bizarre smile.
“Remember, performance.” he said in her ear placing a hand on her shoulder. Without looking at him she nodded and walked on. She copied his action by placing a hand on his shoulder.
“Sorry to cut into your game, but I have to have a talk to you.” she said.
“In a moment, I'm just about to win big.”
“Wow you really can talk!” she exclaimed surprised.
“What?” he said as he turned to her. “What is a kid doing here!?”
She forced to gather her posture and coughed to clear her throat. She raised the poster. He looked at it, his pupils dilated. Then he relaxed and laughed.
“And what? A kid like you this she can take me down?” he mocked.
She raised her eyebrow.
“You do realise that she is being trained by me.” spoke Zaryb.
He looked up for a small and brief moment looked scared. She then jumped and hit the duck in his throat. He staggered back and he hit the back of his head on his winnings. His eyes closed she hesitated slightly before she came closer and made sure that he was sill alive and she then pulled him off the broken table.
“We'll be taking his winnings.” Zaryb said as he took it up and gave the coins made of precious metals and stones. “Here, hold these, you're far too weak and small to carry him.”
They soon returned him the the alchemists that had created him.
“What do you think will happen to him?” she asked.
“Hardly matters, and it is not our place to be moral.” he said. “No, they died along with your parents.”

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
