   Third page of my story!!! Spirit World-Fierce's Story: Chapter 1- Life, Death, and Love: Part 3
We walked towards a lake and sat by it. It reflected the moonlight, which made the lake glisten and sparkle. Lost in thought, I tried to remember the last time I saw a sight this beautiful. I couldn’t trace my memory any further back. I’ve never seen something as brilliant as this, and I probably never will.
“This is the most wonderful thing I’ve ever seen.” I told the girl. It was certainly something you could not see in Spirit World.
“Really? Where you come from, you don’t see full moons?” She asked.
“No, you would never see even a speck of starlight,” I replied. It was true. I lived in a world where there was no moon. There were no stars. There was nothing where you could just look out a window and see the beauty of the night skies.
“Where do you live?” She requested. Oh, yea, I thought. I passed out when I was telling her. I’ll give those damn spirits a piece of my mind someday.
“I live in Spir--” I was cut off yet again. The splitting sound of a bullet running through a barrel of a gun shook the Earth as we sat by the moonlit lake.
“We better get out of here,” the girl exclaimed. The fear part of her showed out in her eyes.
“Umm… Uh, okay…” I said, thinking hard. 'Did someone see me? Am I getting this girl in trouble because someone saw me?' I thought. Usually we spirits have a stone that makes us invisible. I don’t have it because I got grounded from it, even though I never used it for the human world. I also dropped the one I stole while I was trying to get out of my house.
“There are a lot of alleys that we could hide in. Don’t worry, I wont let anyone take you away! Not like the others…” she said in a panicked voice. 'Take me away?' I thought, 'Who would want to take me away? Who are the ‘others’?' My mind pulsed with thoughts. I was getting a rather large headache.
We ran in to a wall. A dead end. “This is not good!” she screamed. She looked back, trying to find another way out.
“Who is about to get us?” I demanded, in a panic myself.
She looked around frantically. Then, as she was about to reply, there were people standing at the entry of the alley. “Them” she answered, quietly. These people had guns, cages and a lot of other stuff that would be used to catch wild animals… 'And to them, I am a wild animal,' I thought.
“I’m sorry… I couldn’t protect you… I’m so worthless…” the girl said. Right after she said that, triggers were being pulled to unleash the terrible sound of a gun. A bullet stuck into my shoulder. I cried in pain, as it hurt more than anything I’ve imagined. The girl just standing next to me was crying. 'Had she been on their team all along?' I thought. Then I took that thought back when they shot her in the leg. I ignored my pain to crouch down beside her and see if she was okay. The other people started shooting again. I felt my back being thumped by bullets. I felt the pain of bullets going into my skin. I ignored that pain. I couldn’t let her die. I was trying to protect her.
'Keyno, fight…' I heard in my mind. I didn’t know if someone was talking to me or, if I imagined it, but I agreed with that thought.
“I’m sorry… That you had to see this. That you had to be a part of it…” I told the girl. I got up and walked toward the other people. The men stopped shooting, just for a second, and then started shooting again. They probably stopped shooting in shock. I gritted my teeth. I was so mad, I couldn’t imagine it. I didn’t know where all of this anger came from. It was like some sort of force. My eyes felt like they were on fire. My whole body felt like it was on fire. These two blades appeared in my hands. I had no clue where they came from or why they appeared, but it was something to use as a weapon. They were engraved with the runes of Bloodstone, a powerful species of demon that demanded blood. They also looked like they were made from actual bloodstone.
