Hunters: Rise of a Dragon Demon 22. Training
"How are you doing fellas?" Kevin said to them, trying to act casual. ‘Don't act weak. It will attract bullies.’ Finn's words resounded in his ears. Seems like he was already attracting bullies."How come you didn't attend our school for so long? Finn never told us he had a twin brother." Their leader snickered after blowing a bubble. Kevin noticed that one of his upper incisor tooth was missing."We are not twin brothers."They laughed and he asked. "What are you then?" "None of your business."He snorted. "I'm Gabe by the way. These two guys behind me are Maverick and Chuck. We own this school. Everyone respects us and no one would want to get on our bad side. How about we become friends? We'll offer you protection, grant you popularity in this school and in return you will give us some goodies and cash. That shouldn't be a problem for you. After all, you are from that rich family of Jones." Gabe reminded Kevin of Scott. Well, at least he wasn't some demon seeking to destroy him.

After they entered the elevator, Celia tapped number two and pressed the green button, making the elevator move to the next floor.The elevator stopped and dinged, then opened. "This is the Control Centre." Celia announced.They had just stepped into what looked like an office department. Long rectangular desks were arranged in rows with several swivel chairs arranged along their longest sides. People dressed in suits were seated, each one of the typing on computer systems. Everyone looked focused on their activity. Several bulbs hung on the white ceiling giving out light. There were some doors on the wall and a water dispenser stood at the corner of the room. "This is where the activities of demons are being checked, emergency calls are being taken, and other activities like that." After taking a look around and a little more explanation, they went back into the elevator and lifted to the next floor."This is the Weaponry Centre." Celia said as the elevator door dinged open. The
Hunters: Rise of a Dragon Demon 24. Theory Period
"A long time ago, in the ancient days, there were wizards. Wizards were respected as they kept magic in Kingdoms in check. The wizards provided magic for day-to-day activities and the days were peaceful. But as they say, good things don't last. "Some wizards started becoming greedy for power. They saw themselves as superior and wanted to rule. Among these wizards was Lim. He took his ambition far to another level. He searched and searched until he found a ritual to make himself the most powerful wizard. He informed his friend, Aidan who is another wizard, about this but Aidan wasn't greedy for power, so he refused. That broke their friendship. "Lim ignored Aidan's warning about the ritual involving strong dark magic. He went ahead and prepared everything, then performed the ritual on a full moon. It was almost successful and he felt the magic energy surging through him. For a moment, he was the most powerful wizard on Earth. But it was too much for him to handle and couldn't control
Hunters: Rise of a Dragon Demon 1. Made a new foe
Story no longer updating. Do not Unlock.****"Yes, I made it. Woohoo!" Kevin screamed loudly which made students around glance at him as he emerged from Mr. Avery's office. They shook their heads, thinking he was going crazy. Yes, he was crazy. Crazy with excitement. If only they read the paper he was holding, they would have screamed with him. If they read the paper, they would understand that Kevin is one of the nominees in the Best Students Awards, held in Anderson Boarding School every year. But this year's own was special. The prizes of this year's award was bigger than the last ones because Jones Tech Company is a beneficiary of the awards. So the prizes were definitely grand. He was also excited because he had never won the award before. This was his time to shine."Hey what's with the shouting?" His best friend, Darrin, walked up to him and asked."You are not gonna believe this." Kevin shook his shoulder. "Whoa. Calm down. What is it?" Kevin handed the paper to him. "I
Hunters: Rise of a Dragon Demon 2. Hot surprise
Two hours past midnight.Kevin's sleep was disturbed by intense heat. Hot nights had become a common thing in the dormitory ever since the air conditioner was damaged last two weeks. The students were used to it, but not when the heat was this intense. Although Kevin was awake, he kept his eyes closed, trying to ignore the heat. But it kept increasing on his body, forcing sweat out of his body. Because he easily perspired, his pajamas were already drenched with sweat. He rolled to his other side.To make the matter worse, a choking scent filled the air, replacing the fresh one. The scent became stronger every second. Suddenly, a scream echoed which forced him to sit up and open his eyes. He sneezed due to the choking scent. All he could see was large blurry orange color around. He rubbed his eyes to clear his eyesight. He looked again and what he saw nearly made his heart break free from his ribcage. He gasped, turning his head around swiftly. "Ah!" The person screamed again. Studen
Hunters: Rise of a Dragon Demon 3. Breaking the rules
Kevin's heart was still racing even after taking deep breaths in a bid to calm himself. But how can he be calm after the strange dream he just had? It felt so real as if it happened just a few moments ago in reality not in a dream. This thought made him wonder if he actually died and was a ghost presently. Then where was his body? That can be it. It was just a dream. No, a nightmare.The image of Darrin being dead and of Scott in his devilish form kept replaying in his head. Perhaps, he had overthought this hot surprise thing that Scott mentioned and that prompted him into having that dream. Scott can't be that dangerous to the extent that he would set the hostel ablaze just for vengeance, can he? All he needs to do is to calm down and everything will be alright. He assured himself with this thought and laid on his bed. Then his bladder felt full. He had to pee.Groaning inaudibly, he hopped down from his bed and made his way to the door carefully as the dormitory's light bulb was swit
Hunters: Rise of a Dragon Demon 4. Bad friend
"You two. What are you doing here?" A deep voice demanded. They had been caught.Kevin realized he didn't plan this scheme properly. He should have thought of how they won't get caught as security men were always patrolling around the school and the floodlights made it hard for one to walk around without being noticed. Kevin gulped, looking at the man who caught them. Being caught outside the hostel during curfew is one of the greatest offenses the principal detested. Culprits caught performing the act are either suspended or expelled, except if there is a life-or-death situation that prompted the act. He hoped the fire had started so that it would save them from any punishment."I said what are you two doing outside?" The man repeated. "And what is that noise coming from the inside?" Kevin said. "There is a fire in the hostel." Darrin looked at him with puzzlement instantly. "Fire?!" The security man hurriedly rushed to the hostel door and dipped his hand into his pocket. It came

Kevin watched buildings, infrastructures and people swoosh past his eyes with incredible speed. The sun was at its peak, giving out its heat and light rays on Fox City. The city was brimming and bustling with activities as pedestrians and vehicles moved about, doing their everyday business. Although the view outside was interesting, the ride was dead boring. Normally, on a drive like this, Darrin and Kevin would be deep in a funny conversation or play multiplayer games.But right now, his mother was turning the wheel with complete focus on the road before her. Darrin was just staring outside through the window, acting like he wasn't in the car.If not for the sound of the car and the noise outside, Kevin would have gone mad because of the huge silence.After traveling a long distance, the car came to a stop at the front of a gate. Inside was Darrin's home."I guess this is it. Bye Darrin." Kevin bade."Hmm, bye." Darrin hummed, not sparing a look at him as he alighted from the car.Ke

"Ok, Kevin. The time has come for me to go. I hope you still remember all the advice I gave you. I won't be here to scold or protect you for about a month. So please be a good boy." Lisa advised and kissed her son's forehead. Two luggage stood beside her."Mum, I've told you before. I'm not a child anymore. I'll be fine." "No matter what you think, you are still my baby. I'll call you every day." "Thanks, mum." The two of them hugged themselves."I'll miss you so much." "I'll miss you too. Ok mum, if we continue with this further you'll miss your flight. Seriously, I'll be fine." Lisa left him and rubbed his cheek. "Lisa, you'll miss your plane. You have to go now." Leo reminded. "Don't worry, we'll take care of him. He's part of our family, ok?" "Thank you, Leo, for everything.""It's alright Lisa. Now go." "One last hug?" She pouted at Kevin. Kevin sighed. "Ok."He spread out his arms and wrapped it around her. "Goodbye, mum." "Goodbye. I'll call you when I arrive." They br

20. Comforting a mother
Kevin was shocked seeing his mother in tears. The mother that took care and nurtured him alone for sixteen years. He had never seen her shed tears. "Mum, why are you crying?" He rushed to her."It's nothing." She tried to wipe her tears but more kept pouring out. "I'm fine." "You are obviously not fine. What is it?"She sniffled and said nothing. "Mum, it's okay." He gently wrapped his arms around her, hugging her. He was almost as tall as her so he didn't have to stretch. Lisa sobbed more in her son's embrace. "Your father died because of me." "What?" "If not for me, he wouldn't have run away from home with me to Texas. He would have never gone for that mission. He would still be alive." "Don't talk like that, mum. Dad loved you." Kevin said, breaking the hug. "Exactly." She sniffled. "His love for me made him do all of that. Maybe...if we just left each other then..." "Mum, stop." Kevin covered her mouth. "It wasn't your fault." "I don't know." Lisa said as Kevin slowly rem

"OMG! Kev. Wow." Darrin exclaimed, gazing at the devices inside the box. Inside the box were two laptops, three phones, two tablets, and three headphones."Kevin, do you realize all of these gadgets are the latest version?" Darrin noted."Oh my. You are right." Kevin took one phone and examined it. "I'm gonna kiss my uncle's foot whenever I see him again. This is... wonderful.""Awn. I'm jealous." Darrin pouted. "Hey don't be. Here have one." Kevin took one phone and handed it to Darrin. Darrin gawked. "Um...I didn't really mean I'm jealous...""Oh, if you insist I'll keep the phone." "I never said I didn't want it." Darrin quickly snatched the phone from him and Kevin laughed. "Oh, I see you have been given your Welcome Home present." Finn's voice sounded in the room and they turned to look at him at the door. "It was my idea." Finn added as he walked in. "Really? Thanks." "I would have come sooner if I didn't see my elder brother. I had no idea he was at home. Oh, have you se

18. Two abilities
"Is he going to be alright? He has been unconscious for an hour now." "He will be fine. Nothing bad happened to him. He just lost a lot of energy. Quit worrying Dad."The voices were indistinct but Kevin could make out what they were saying as he awakened. Everything was blurry at first but with time, it came piece by piece until the room became clear. He was on bed in a room that looked like a hospital ward. It had almost everything that a hospital ward needed. Just like the hospital in the Hunters Base. By the brown door, Leo talked with a young man who had his back faced to him. He was in a lab coat with a stethoscope hung around his neck."Oh, he's awake." Leo said as he saw Kevin sit up. The other guy turned and walked to the bed. "How are you feeling?" "A bit weak. How long was I out?" "An hour.""An hour?" "Since you aren't used to your ability, your body is still... adjusting. Abilities take energy to act up and let's just say your body is...lacking in sufficient energy

17. Father's death
The floor felt cold and the scent of kerosene lingered in the atmosphere. Kevin opened his eyes and stood up to take a look around. He was in a small room with only one wooden door. The walls were brown, bare and had lots of cracks on them. The floor was made out of concrete which explains why it was cold. He traced the smell of the kerosene and saw that it was coming from a lantern on a small wooden table. Four old brown couches surrounded the table. The lantern was the only thing providing light as it was dark outside. Someone was sitting on one of the couches wearing a black gown. Kevin walked closer to the person. He contemplated before saying. "Hello." His voice echoed in the room but it seems the person couldn't hear because she didn't look up. Kevin went closer and discovered it was a woman. Due to the dim light, he couldn't see her face clearly but she looked familiar. She held a sleeping baby wrapped in a shawl on her arm. Kevin was still trying to see her face clearly wh

"Hey dear." The woman walked in and sat next to Kevin. "Sorry to disrupt your fun time but I have to make sure they always do their homework." Kevin nodded. "I understand.""In case you are wondering, I'm Gwen, Finn's mother." "Hmm. Explains why you like Arianna." She laughed softly. "You inherited Noah's look so much. People will think you and Finn are twin brothers. I just hope I won't mix up the both of you." Kevin chuckled. "Are you settling fine here?" "Yes. Everyone has been nice to me. I like it here." "Glad to hear that. Sorry again for ruining your fun." "It's okay." "If you say so. I have to go now. Have fun." She stood up and left Kevin alone in the game room.***"Hey cous." Finn announced his presence as he entered Kevin's room. Kevin, who had just stepped out from the game room after playing till he was tired, lifted his head. "You done with your homework?" He nodded and sat on his bed. "I don't have much homework today. Lucky me." There was a brief silence b
