Chapter 1: Robbed

Elric was riding his bike down Main Street it was around 8am and he was passing the local high school. He saw a teen running down the street the chains on her leather jacket banged against each other making a clanking noise. He road up to her and revved the engine. The girl looked at his with displease as he started to speak, “How about you come with me and we will have some real fun.” Elric smirked. “How about no” the girl said as she flashed him her gun. Elric sighed and screeched his tires out on the pavement.

He was now flying down Main Street; he was a little mad that he got turn down. As Elric zoned off lights started to flash behind him, gripping the handle tighter he hit the gas. Weaving in and out of traffic was nothing for Elric but for the cop car that was a different story, he lost them in less than three blocks.

Elric ended back at his apartment, it wasn’t much but he was trying to keep to himself for the time being. He walked up to his door and went to stick in the key to find the door was unlocked. Swinging the door open he found a young man knocked out on the floor. He was about 5’ 4” with long black hair. “Another robber.” Sighed Elric as he chanted “Suscitatio” the boy jumped up started. “What happen?” yelled the young boy. Elric looked at him and said, “You aren’t human, are you?”

The young boy shook and started to run. Elric lifted his finger towards him and whispered “Glacies” freezing the young boy’s legs. “Now who are you elf?” Elric yelled.

The boy looked up at him and said, “I am Vahn from the Marsh Clan” frightened from what would happen to him.

“Hmm… The Marsh Clan, I thought they all died.”

“What died?!” screamed Vahn.

“It was about two months ago, some humans attacked destroying everything.” Elric said with a grin.

“No! No that can’t be!” Vahn yelled as he began to cry.

“Laxo” chanted Elric, “If you ever want to get revenge young elf, come see me.”

Vahn ran off into the distance leaving Elric alone in his apartment. He looked around to see that nothing was stolen and sat down in his chair. “Such a stupid kid, but to think that one of the Marsh Clan members is still alive. I did a bad job at whipping them out.” He thought to himself as he clicked the TV on. The news flashed on, “five more elves found dead in the past 24 hours” scrolled on the bottom of the screen. Elric’s fist clinched into a fist and started to draw blood. “These humans are a virus and need to be destroyed.”

Looking at his cell phone he saw the time flash and say 10:00am. He had been awake for the past 26 hours and the lack of sleep had started to get to him. He ruffled through his dresser finding a change of clothing to sleep in and headed to bed.
