Bab 3: Monsters under your bed
She looked down at Kalista and sighed "Black Jeans, Red V neck, Blak leather jacket, Black boots, multiple wrist bands... Kid, you look like the lead singer in a punk rock band, didn't you have a suit? in this room, it won't stand out but around the humans well..."
"I'm a seventeen-year-old boy with no parents or social life and two part-time jobs to take care of my sister, what use do I have for a suit?" he raised an eyebrow when he heard her question
"Hmm, okay, true, I'll have to get you a suit, be warned no one in this room is human, they are all my closest friends and each one of them is a monster, literally and figuratively but I don't think you'll have many issues if you just be yourself, you'll see what I mean."
As Kalista nodded, the elevator door opened to a rather large conference room.
"Ariel, who's the kid?" A young woman walked over as he looked into Kalista's eyes
"The kid can speak for himself, thank you, I'm Kalista Kataclysm"
"feisty, I like this one" A slightly older woman called out from the back "Like the outfit Kalista"
"Did you say Kataclysm? your name is Kataclysm?" This time a slightly older man spoke "Gee that's not ominous at all"
Kalista grabbed a seat and leaned back "Kalista, the young lady in the back is Joan D'arc" Joan had short black hair and blue eyes
"The Maid of Orléans" He looked at her with a hint of respect in his eyes
"Not many people remember my name, It brings joy to my heart" She bowed and smiled
"The young woman in front of you is Troya Juban, you won't know of her, her legend isn't taught, she's-"
"The Angel of Martinique, burned alive at the stake in Martinique on the third of August, twenty-two forty-five after performing a miracle that saved that lives of over five hundred thousand people infected with an uncontrollable disease"
Everyone looked over at Kalista in shock and Ariel was the first to speak up "how'd you know?"
"My social life consists of my motorcycle, my sister and the library"
"Such a lonely life" Troya commented with a sigh, she had long blonde hair and grey eyes which held a look of pity for the boy
"The old guy in the back is Lucifer Kallcade"
"Hmm, Never heard of you"
"If you did, I'd question if you were actually a human and not a monster like us" Lucifer spoke calmly
"Lucifer Kallcade, the general who led the siege against the walls of Katala city in twenty-four ninety but all books recorded it as being general Galahad's doing "
"I am Ariel Bloodrose, I am not one of importance like these people, the only thing I accomplished in my life wasn't known"
"She took the heads of an entire kingdom," Joan said flatly as if it was just another Tuesday for them
Kalista's eyes looked like they were ready to bulge out of their sockets "The downfall of the Galliants When The eldest princess of the Leona Kingdom was kidnapped, you were her protector, the person that ripped the heads of anyone who dared to lay so much a finger on her, man, woman and child"
"You got that from the short ass sentence I said? you really are something kid"
Just then a young lady walked in the door, she had Black hair and bright green eyes "Some jackass parked a black and red motorcycle in my spot so I ran it over, Hey Ariel, could you fire that jack ass?"
"You idiot" Ariel facepalmed as Kalista narrowed his eyes "What was on the license plate?"
"I don't answer to you"
"Yes you do, answer him," Ariel said without the tiniest trace of emotion
"Fine it was J&FRIP" the moment she finished this sentence, she was flipped over on the table and pinned down, a knife at her throat "you are going to pay...for every single fucking scratch on that bike... and if you don't..." he pressed the knife further into her neck drawing blood "I"ll make you wish you were dead"
She looked up at him with wide eyes and felt the blood dripping down her neck "How'd you hurt me?"
"I don't answer to you" he threw her away and sat back down
"If you dare to do that again I'll-"
"You'll what?" he casually shot her a glance and threw his knife out, it cut her ear and stuck itself in the wall behind her "Go on, finish that sentence and give me a reason to kill your arrogant ass, I have no moral issues killing monsters"
"You brought a hunter here?"
"I didn't know he was a hunter, I saved his sister a few years ago and in return, he agreed to join me, the plan was to turn him into a creature and train him to be my successor," Ariel said calmly as she looked at Kalista
"I don't know what the fuck you're talking about, I just took one of my father's knives and went ballistic"
"You parents must have been Hunters" Lucifer smiled brightly when he thought of this as if he was planning something
"Why did you attack me over a stupid fucking bike?"
Kalista looked at her with a hint of disdain "That 'stupid, fucking bike' is something I had been working on with my mother before she died, I've spent years trying to finish it by myself and even the license plate was dedicated to my parents, Jericho and Felicity. Rest In Peace"
when she saw this she realized how badly she fucked up, the person in front of her was held with great importance, even Ariel who always protected her would have let her die at his hands and she just destroyed something of great importance to him.
"I'll do you one better, I'll even help you repair it, I'd offer to do it myself but I'm guessing you want to work on it, based off of how important you've said it is to you"
"Deal"
"Since your ride is fucked, we'll go to my garage to work on it"
"Before you two go anywhere, we need to see which monster you turn into, and the one who broke your bike is Liz Morningstar"
"Not yet, I want to go back down and get Hannah for this, If I'm going to become a Monster, I want her to be a Hunter, I'll train her myself starting tomorrow, the same way my mother trained me, never even noticed she was doing it"
He went down and got her, when she entered the room she felt like a fish out of water
"Umm, hi there"
"Hannah, I'd like you to meet-"
"And everyone this is my little, twin sister Hannah"
After going through introductions, she looked at Liz and like she was ready to pounce, her killing intent had never been so high in her entire life and everyone in the room could feel it.
"Okay, enough delays, since your sister is here and you and Liz and have already made peace, let's get going, You'll be drinking Liz's blood, I hope you two and get along because I have high hope for you two being together"
They both looked at Ariel and Kalista raised his head "No, that's way too forced, whatever happens, happens, do not meddle in my love life"
"Whatever, just take your knife and cut her fucking neck already" Troya was growing more impatient
as she carelessly tossed the blade to Kalista "Gladly" he pulled her close and sliced at her neck as he drank her pure monster blood
A while passed and Kalista felt a throbbing pain in his chest, he clutched his fist against it and doubled over in pain, suddenly his aura flared up and the room turned dark, it was mostly pitch black as it rose high going as high as the ceiling
"a pitch black aura, the aura of a person who has suffered greatly and continued to suffer, the aura of someone who has lost almost everything or everything, someone with an aura this black is likely to have already committed suicide or become someone horrendously evil how is he still alive and so normal?" Joan couldn't help but raise this question as she thought of killing Kalista on the spot
"Because of that" Troya pointed to the middle of his aura, where a faint golden glow radiated "Impossible, it should be impossible for someone with an aura this black to have a core aura of gold," Lucifer noticed it too as she spoke, shock filled the room
"care to explain to those of us who can't read Auras?" Hannah asked with a very visibly pout on her face
"A pitch black aura is the aura of someone who suffered more than anyone can even begin to imagine, someone who should, in theory, have nothing left to live for, suicide victims often have this aura, it's the aura of someone who has experienced pain beyond comprehension, usually these people are cold, heartless, broken, depressed, unforgiving, they are bad people because they've never had a good life" Liz explain "A gold aura is it's polar opposite essentially, It's the aura of someone kind, benevolent, selfless, forgiving, charitable, a good example would be saint's worships by the Catholic church"
"It's unheard of for someone with an aura as black as this to have a golden core aura, Black is the aura of evil and gold is the aura of the holy"
as the aura slowly died down, the room returned to normal as an odd black mist radiated from Kalista's body.
"He's an Ephemeral? Unlucky boy" Ariel spoke softly
"A nightmare is the rarest monster type however it takes a long time to train up to a decent power level, The first rank is Nightmare, it's one of the weaker races because it goes through three ranks before it gets combat abilities, The first has no combat prowess at all, the second allows for mobility and escape, the third allows for combat, however after that the combat abilities increase drastically for every level"
