The group was seen running through the forest trying hard to catch up with Yang. Yang the purple haired man who had earlier approached the group to help them was moving through the forest like it was his home. His movements and speed was so smooth as he avoided evey branch,log and vines that was in his way.
After running for a while, they had entered a cleared out path and could see Yang still running at the front but at a much slower pace than before. The group picked up their speed to try and catch upwith him but that's when Yang made a turn and as the legionsfollowed swiftly only to discover a dead end with no sign of Yang anywhere.
"I knew we couldn't trust that ba..." Jack was about to commentbefore something else happened.
"Aaaaaaahhhh!!" they all screamed as they fell through a pit hole then quickly as they fell in, it got covered by a leaf blanket again. They landed on each other, with the only person standing on his feet being Erwin as he had long tired out and was at the back of the group which meant he had seen what happened and prepared.
They stood up dusting off the leaves and twigs in their hair.Yang who was now standing at their front looking at them said. "Welcome to the Hunters base".
As they all got up, their mouths were left wide opened staring at the large shelter in front of them. Thick walls made from wood and occasionally one could see beast cores on the walls rising very high up and wide as a bunker. From just looking at it, one could say its big enough to hold a whole batallion. The place looked like a forest as it had this natural theme attached to it, only with people moving round.
"How long will it take for us to get our own shelter" Blair said as he gazed at the shelter in front of him.
"If you plan on staying" Corey muttered.
"This way please"..said a young lady with a slim and curved body shape dressed in a white robe.

Meanwhile back in the forest, a man dressed in an all black suit of armor sat on a horse with a small army behind him.
"We have to find the chosen one by all means necessary".
"Where was he last spotted"? someone who had appeared by the side of the horse dressed in a black ninja suit with a cloak covering his head and a golden trim on it asked.
"The report brought back claims he was seen running with a group following a man through the forest"..."My faction is still searching, they looked to have disappeared into thin air"the man on the horse replied.
"Remember.... the shadow knight is our way out of this... this pocket space...Find him.." Avrion, the man dressed in the ninja outfit said as he glowed gold then vanished into thin air.

Currently, they were all in what looks to be the command centre of the hunter faction, the members of the legion faction standing and the leaders of the hunter faction sitting on a wide table.
" Remind me why there are empty seats but we can't seat again?" Blair said with a tone of dissatisfaction.
"Quiet down will ya?...we don't wanna get on their bad side remember? Eiko said in a whispering tone to Blair who understood and behaved.
The room was all white and gold in colour with ancient Chinese designs on the walls everywhere.
"Yang, what makes you feel you can bring in strangers as you please?" Asked a very large man with a white and black robe running down to his feet. He was one of the hunters leaders and went by the name Damien.
"I remember being among the leaders council of this faction" replied yang with an unfazed look. "I am here to talk to master Tofu and not you". Yang finished saying and just then the atmosphere in the room became dense as there was a certain pressure the legion members were beginning to feel. But Yang feeling this same feeling only shook his head as he stared at Damien with a look of disgust.
From the back of the room, the sound of door sliding open was heard which caused everyone to turn and look back and from the room emerged an old man in a white robe with black trims, he appeared to be over a 100 years old as he had a long white goatee and moustache. But the top of his head was a different story all together as his head was bald and there were visible wrinkles on his face." Yang, what Damien is saying is right." Said master Tofu, the man who came out of the door. He let out a cough before he continued "This faction has remained safe because we chose to distance ourselves from the other faction and outsiders in general" he said.
While he kept talking, Eiko couldn't help but whisper to his team members.
"Hasn't it been only two days since we got sucked in here?" He asked.
"I was thinking the same thing" said Mia.
"Wait, how long has it been"? Asked Rodney.
All the leaders of the hunter faction looked at him with confused looks on their faces, even Yang couldn't help but wonder what he had to say that was so important that he would interrupt master Tofu. Being the oldest and knowledgeable man in the faction, he had ruled as their leader and maintained quite a reasonable amount of order.
Although in most cases, positions like this were usually given to the strongest in the faction, in the case of Master Tofu, no one had actually seen him fight and as such couldn't quite gauge his strength with the rest of the other leaders. It was already a known fact amongst the people that Damien was the strongest amongst the three. With Yang being the second which wasn't quite agreed upon by those that have been close to him.
They would often say that Yang was actively hiding his true strength but many believed that if he eventually did decide to show his full strength, he would be exactly under Damien as the believe was that it was practically impossible for anyone to surpass master Damien.
"What do you mean how long"? Damien asked with his arms folded in front of his chest.
"How long has this faction existed?".. Rodney asked with fear he wasn't going to be exactly pleased with the response.
Master Tofu stood from his seat and approached the legion members staring at them with a suspicious face
"For as long as our ancestors can remember" he finally replied to their question which left them all with their jaws wide open..
"Ancestors?!" Blair asked in disbelief.
*******
Blair suddenly started laughing "Haha so you mean you, that old looking man at the back and pretty much everybody in this faction were born here?"he paused and laughed nervously in between before he then said.."we are doomed!...doomed I tell ya!!" went Blair as he went into a foetal position rocking back and forth.No one could blame him,they just got news that they could potentially be trapped in this world forever with no hope of returning.Then it occurred to Rodney that this people had somehow managed to thrive in this place which almost felt like impossible to the teenager giving that a certain boss had been on their tails for a while now.How have they managed to survive?, There had to be more to it right?.ultimately he let these thoughts disappear as they would just lead to more unanswered questions.Now more than ever they needed to get strong to survive and maybe find a way if there was one out of this world. Yang seeing how disrupted the teens wer
The veteran squad was the most elite front line squad of the hunters.They were a part of the warrior unit of the hunters which consisted of the best close up combat ability users and ranged ability users.The warrior unit consisted of range ability and close up combat fighters, depending on the mission, it could be a mixture of both department or just one.It looked like the warrior unit would be going out on a hunt today as they were all seen sharpening blades and gearing up rather than training.This in a way gave Yang an idea.What other way to give the guests a tour of the hunters faction than to carry them on a hunt.He walked up to one of the men standing around taking a swing of his long blade while the others were selecting weapons from behind him."Say how would you like to get an additional boost to your squad today ..I mean it sure looks like you could use some help".The man he was talking to right now was
Off in a different world filled with people roaming the streets going about their different businesses. One could clearly tell that the atmosphere today wasn't just right. How could it be after the recent uncovering of the death that has dealt a serious blow to the hearts of the citizens of Zoa.Wayne Rogers inc, the name of the company that made the game "The Heat" happens to be having an "eventful" day today as cops could be seen surrounding the entire perimeter of the 25 story building. This building is not only famous for the structural designs and beautiful architectural works. But its been rumored to have been standing for more than a hundred years, some say more but with as much rumor that spreads around who knows what's true and what's not?.About rumours there is one going around recently that a particular big name of the "Wayne inc" not just any person but the CEO Wayne rogers himself died in his office. Now what's more bothersome is that his body
If one was to describe the Hunter's faction base with one word, it would be "smooth". At the warriors department one could see the veterans preparing to go for a hunt."Hey Rodney ...have you packed all your supplies"...Mia asked Rodney with a smile that just didn't suit the question..."Yes.."...Rodney answered bluntly and left to move to another area. Looking at what the teenager just did now, one would think he was rude but as a matter of fact he was worried and had no time to entertain pleasant exchanges." That preacher ....he called me the SHADOW KNIGHT"...he thought to himself as he couldn't just seem to get the thought out of his head. No matter what he resolved within himself that he had to find out more about what was going on here. It didn't feel like a game anymore and from what he saw it certainly wasn't a game they'd enjoy even if it was one.Standing off to the side not to far away from where Rodney was a guy with brown hair and two l
The group of 14 with 9 from the legion faction which consisted of two females mia and blaze, and 7 males Rodney, Eiko, Erwin, Blair, Jack, Johan and Corey all walking silently in the forest they were in right now.There was an aura of seriousness coming off of everyone as they all knew what they could potentially face.Zayn turning and seeing the teens all quiet and serious thought to himself that the wave of reality must have come crashing on them as they now knew what they were in for..." A real hunt".But surprisingly the teens where all worried about something else and they all had one picture in their head ..."Larva rain ".. The game lord had sure left a mark ingrained on them that wouldn't be disappearing anytime soon as they all knew it was a matter of time before they'd have to encounter him or his bots again. Which to be honest none of them were looking forward to.Blair being the energetic one amongst them had lon
One of the reasons hunters were advised to stay close and keep communication was because of situations like this, where a small weak team would encounter something tougher than they could handle.Right now the legion merged up with the hunters "E UNIT" to go out on a hunt. And this unit is being led by captain Zayn, a tall muscular man in his early thirties who wields a shovel like weapon."OK guys ...we might not be able to handle this one...but I already called in informing them about the current situation...so we just gotta try to hang on until help arrives"...Even as these very words left his mouth he wasn't sure he believed himself that they could last talk more of the team he led."We've gotta help Blair"...Mia shouted..And almost instantly one of the men from the original "E UNIT" led by Zayn had swooped into action running past everyone so quick it startled them all..The man who had just ran past them was "Senior Jake", as he would like to be called. He was one of those re
Back in the real world, one could smell the air as it carried scents of all kinds, not to talk of the different noises coming off of vehicles and people.while all this went on, on top of a tall building saw a man in an all white and gold trim overall. The gold trim went around the collar on his neck and down from the back of his neck to where the dress stopped at his foot .Staring in the distance the strange man wouldn't blink even for once as he just kept on staring at only one thing and one thing alone.. Wayne inc signboard.. The strange man twitching one arm like that arm was in constant pain or was been electrocuted finally fell to his knees and mumbled something that couldn't be clearly heard. Then getting up with a whole new resolve that was shown on his face which looked like that of a god as he looked astonishingly beautiful.“ Where is this damned mana crystal!!" He said in anger as he immediately turned into a bolt of lightning and vanished. Looking at the center where he
Meanwhile in another part of the city, the ZOA police department was busier than ever, as they have to juggle Mr Wayne's “ accident" and the missing teens that has thrown the city into confusion..Apparently 9 reported missing cases were filed in one day. This occurrence has never happened in the history of ZOA.* Knock knock *“who's at the door ...I'm coming" ...Out came a teenage boy about age 17 running down the stairs to get the door..He opened the door and on seeing the person at the door, his face turned sour almost immediately.The boy that came rushing to get the door is Tom Edison, a dark long haired boy, who happens to be a high schooler..he is just about the height of the visitor at the door...Clearing his throat...“ I'm sorry ...come in"And the visitor at the door walked in placing what looked like an ID back his chest pocket.This visitor wasn't exactly someone tom was expecting. It was another police officer who had come visiting only he wasn't in his uniform but dr
