At the beginning it was dark. I couldn't see, I was cramped. The egg I was in was too arm for me and I had to see the outside world. I brought back my feet and started to kick. The only thought on my mind was to eat. At the time I doubt I even knew what hunger was. I wish I had spent more time thinking. More time eating. It is useless now.

I had been going at it for an hour when I had finally broken out. At least that is what my father had always told me. When I broke out the world was new. It was bright. And I had my future best friend right beside me. What a coincidence right? Well for me no. My parents had adopted Oliver as an egg as his parents did not want him. When we hatched at the same time THAT was a coincidence. I remember waking up out of the egg snuggled by my mother. My father was looking down at us, his eyes beating with affection. My father was scary on the outside but a real softy on the inside. If only I could see them both one last time.

After my hatching the world was just beginning for my family. They had everything they wanted...NEEDED in this life. I remember My father he once told me "The world is like opening a door. There is no way to get past unless you open it. Sometimes opening it is harder for others. Certainly not for you." I knew what it mean't but never realize I would ever be looking back to his words. I didn't think I would need it.

My life was different back then. I would wake up, my mother would wipe my eyes so I could 'see the world at dawn', I would go down stairs and be greeted by Oliver. The moment he was old enough to listen he knew we weren't related but that never bothered him. He knew that we would always be family. My dad would hand out breakfast. After that it was off to school.

Now I am not going to say my whole life. Just the juicy part. The part that made me what I am now. The part that you and I are here for.

[Pacsaj]

It all started on a bright Friday after noon. When was it? Oh ya, June 2017.

I had two things on my mind that day: Oliver and a ride home. It was Oliver's 17th birthday. Which means it was mine as well. I had just got out of the last day of school. WE had been given a choice to stay home or go. Oliver chose to stay. I walked out from under the shadow of the roof. Re leaved to see my parents I jumped into the car and rode home. Man could I not wait to go home.

Once back I ran out from the inside of the car and right into my brothers arms. I was exited to see him. Our birthdays together had always been great. I had been longing to see us all together once more. My parents were very busy viscets so we never got the time we needed together, as a family. That birthday had been like every other. We opened presents and got cake. I prefer homemade while Oliver likes store bought. The incident never happened during the party. I happened after...I mean IT..ah who cares.

It was an ordinary evening. for us we have a party and it is over, no more discussion. I was just about to fall asleep when I felt Oliver tug on my fur.
"Oliver?" I spoke dreary and tired.
"I'm here!" He piped up. "I think something is wrong with mom and dad. They aren't in the house."
"They probably went to go get a drink, cool off some stream."
"No this isn't like that. The car is still here." He shook me until I got up. "Come on! Your the smart one." I have to admit I do like being called smart. "Fine! But stay here and don't come down until I say so." He nodded and I left.

Down stairs was awfully quiet that night, a little too quiet. I Searched the house for clues. Maybe a note. I don't know what I was thinking then. I think it was something from a movie. I searched for at least two minutes when I had found a pan. That pan wasn't here before. Heck I don't even know if we used one to cook. I lifted up the pan to fine a drop of blood on the bottom. After that everything seemed clear. I must follow the scent. I must say I had to be really dumb to think like that.

I followed the scent to an old alleyway between Al's Steakhouse and that one Sushi shop nobody can ever remember the name of. At the time both shops were closed so if he were to kidnap anyone no one would see. At the back of the alleyway i smelted something..something disturbing but familiar. I followed it a little longer to find a note that read: I am only half way done. I didn't know what it mean't until I looked down. Two fully grown viscet sized bags with the words 'Poor ol' mom and dad. The bags were full with no movement. I leaned over to open one of the bags. I fell onto the floor. Grasping for air. Perhaps even light. I knew what was in my mind. The words repeated over and over again. Kill Him.

[Pacsaj]

Have you ever gone too deep in the water where you can't touch. You try to get back to the shallow point ,but have gone too far. The water drags you down as you struggle to get back up. In my family we called that the drowning point. That moment ,in the alleyway, that was my drowning point.

The Rage from their deaths was the only thing on my mind now. I kept asking myself Why me? out of everyone Why us. He will pay.Have you ever heard the saying "Anger changes you." Well that is true. It messes with your mind, Makes you unaware, unfocused. Anger does change you. And depending on how you manage the anger it could eventually go away or it could sit and boil.

I wasn't ready to go to the police after the accident. I wanted revenge. I knew the consequences but failed to recognize them. I slowly got up from where I was. The anger pouring out of me like a waterfall. I had trouble walking. I was confused and uncertain of my surroundings. All I really cared for was finding this Viscet. I picked up his scent and stumbled away.

The scent had led me to a matter of places Murder scenes, homes, and even schools. I had asked questions. Even tried the authorities. I was determined to find this person whether or not it was the last thing I did. Eventually though I was able to get a lead. In High school I was the top in the computer class. I had gotten many awards. I used that to my advantage. I was able to hack into the near by security and traffic cameras. I was sure that the police were already on it but I was determined.

It took hours out of me to finally get into the cameras. The hardest part about it was that I had to use the computers at the near by library. When they asked what I was doing I had to explain that I was looking up every book in the library. I told them I was very rich and that if they let me do my thing I would not sue them. The security cameras led me to a gas station right across from one of the murder scenes. Right before it got smashed I saw something. The viscet that smashed it was carrying a duffel bag. It looked ordinary until you looked closer. Inside of the duffel bag was the top of which looked liked snow shoes. Why snow shoes? well my investigation led me to believe he was trying to get out of the state. And the only way out this way was through the mountains. I Packed my bags and got ready for battle.

The closest mountain from the last crime scene was Mt. geyser ,famous for its Ice geysers, Nobody really knows how they work but I have a few theories. If a Geyser were to erupt it could potentially cause an avalanche so it was important to be very cautious. The hike would be long and dangerous so I packed only what I needed. I couldn't go home to get what I needed ,I had came so far no turning back.

At first I was questioning whether this was the right place but that was answered when I found a bloody knife buried in the snow. I had no avalanches but towards the top but I almost fell. Let me tell you you do not want to fall off of this mountain. It has to be at least 2000 feet high! Ok maybe I exaggerated but who cares this is MY story. I finally reached a flat and snowy clearing on the mountain. At that time the wind was blowing so fiercely that it could probably knock an elephant over. The clearing looked as if it were a campsite. I searched the perimeter for the killer. Once the search was over and I was certain that he was not here I moved on. Or at least I tried to. AS I was turning around to continue my hike I heard a voice.
"Hello Cyber, forgetting something?"

[Pacsaj]

I turned around to face the voice. There right in front of me stood a tall male Viscet. He wore a blue parka and a very interesting amulet. The amulet looked like a clock and had a blue gem in the middle.
"I have been waiting for you, Cyber."
"How do you know my name? What do you want with my family?"
The odd Viscet showed no form of emotion. No shock to find out I came for him. No fear. And certainly no intent of answering my question. "I hope you know that the authorities are after you." He looked at me ,his eyes narrowing.
"Are they now?"
"What did you do to them? Why did you harm all those people?" Once again he didn't answer just chuckled. "Looks like someone is trying to play hero." He looked around. "Where's your Halloween costume?"
"Not funny. Answer my question."
"Your a fool ,just like your parents."
"Don't bring them into this."
Oh, but I believe that they already are." He reached down and picked up something. At first I thought that it was a gun. Sadly I was wrong. Out of now where the Viscet disappeared. "Come back HERE! Face me like a warrior." I couldn't give up. Not yet. Not then!
"Ok." The killer stabbed me in the throat. I fell to the floor ,unable to breath. "Oh and call me Hunter." He stood over me and lifted me up. "Your weak just like your parents, I guess I won't be leaving as soon as I thought." The world around me was becoming a blur. I tried to ask what his plans were ,but it looked like he already knew what I was trying to say. "You know at first I was going to spare you and your brother. I guess I have one more left then. Don't I?" Hunter carried me to the edge of the mountain. "Say hello to my victims for me." He pushed me off of the mountain. Normally I would have been scared and terrified but I knew I was going to die someday. And just like that it was dark.

Puck's point of view

Most people would imagine the realm being awful and dark ,but for most of us it is home. Unlike most creature I was born in the Spirit realm. It is a hard thing to come across but It can happen. For us we are gifted with mystical powers. We can hop throughout dimensions. WE can control power like no other. For me I can fore see the future. Most creatures only come to our realm if they are lost and can't find their way back to Heaven ,or where ever they go in after life. You might think that we are ghosts or something like that but no. We are pretty much normal creatures trying to help the deceased find their way back.

It started out a normal day like always. Every morning we would all meet in the center of the realm, Exchange news and such. I was on my way to the meeting when my good friend ,Solo, came running after me.
"Puck!" I turned around startled. "Can it wait Solo? We are going to be late."
"Oh I think this can't wait. Come to the dungeon and see."

I followed Solo to the dungeon waiting for an explanation. "Come on if you hurry we can still make it."
"Ya that is if you still want to go back." He reached for his laptop and showed me a camera. "Just as you foretold. The Viscet who killed your parents and took the travel stone has killed our only hope. I don't know how and why your reading said that this Viscet ,Cyber, could kill him but I am pretty sure that it was wrong."
"NO! My readings are never wrong. It wasn't my parents fault for leaving to try and catch him. It wasn't!"
"Ok puck I think you need to calm down. I never said it was their fault. Look puck I have a plan. If we could bring this Viscet here then he would turn into a spirit right?"
"Yes."
"If he is a spirit then we can talk to him plus still see if your Vision is right." I sighed but still willing to try everything I could.
"And if we get in trouble by the boss?" I asked.
"We won't we could just say that we are trying to help him like all of the others." I nodded. I wasn't sure if this would work. My powers were never wrong so it had to be what we were meant to do.

[Pacsaj]

"Are we ready?"
"Yep, is there anything I missed?"
I looked over the supplies. There was a large pile of contraptions, spells, and chains. "Do we seriously need all of this. I mean we are just going to bring back the spirit of a dead man."
"Well..." Solo went through the pile again and grabbed a spell. "If you really want to be truthful this is all we need. Oh and this."He reached down to pick up a pair of shackles and a chain. "I have heard rumors that sometimes when creatures are resurrected they can have a new personality. Maybe not even be the same."
"Well if my visions are correct ,which they always are, then all we have to do is get him back." I opened up my paw to show the symbol
of the spirit realm ,It is what we locals use to travel. Mt. Geyser. I thought. A small portal opened and we jumped in.

"Puck? How are we going to find him?"
"We don't have to. Hand me that light spell." I opened up the scroll and read in thoroughly. "If what my teacher told me is true then we can light a path to heat. I know it won't make much sense but trust me." I looked at the palm of my hand and made the symbol glow.
"Ok this is what we need to do."

"Puck. I think I found something!" I dug under the spot that was glowing. There stood a young ,red Viscet. "This must be him. Look at all those wounds." I placed my paw on his fore head in attempted to find his soul. "Where is it?" Solo asked impatiently. "shh."I entered Cyber's mind to find that his soul was still in the area. "He is here. We must find him." I looked at Solo and he nodded in agreement. Just like that Solo went limp. I have the power to tell futures while Solo can become his soul. It doesn't make sense to most people at first but it comes in handy. Solo started to move again. "Ok Solo, give me the book." He handed me the spell book and we started to say and repeat the spell.

It took a lot out of us. Our strength practically depleted. "Did it work?" I panted
"I think so." Cyber's body started to move. His left eye popped open. "Why is it glowing?"
"I'll do you one better, Why has his sight not come back?" Cyber stood up and started to levitate. "Umm I think we did something wrong."
"Ya think?" A weird dark magic kind of power came from his hand and he started to throw it at us. "Run!" Solo shouted.
"No we can't! We came here on a mission and I am not going back empty handed." I opened up a portal to our realm and brought Cyber in.

"Um Puck why did you do that? He is wrecking our dungeon!"
"Well then you should probably do something about that Mr.I can tun into a ghost." Solo sighed as his body went limp once more.
Cyber's body fell to the ground. "Did you just kill him?" Solo shook his head. "I knocked him out. Hurry put those shackles on him!" I reached down to pick up the shackles and placed them over his paws. I hooked up the shackles to the wall. "He should be good now. Do you think he will stay like this forever?"
"No he should come back sometime or later. What about his wounds? They never fully healed." I looked around for some sort of bandage for his neck. "We should take care of the main wound first." I wrapped the Blackish gray cloth around his neck. "There we go. And now it just looks like he is wearing a bandanna."
Solo sat down in front of Cyber. "Any time now. Any time."

[Pacsaj]

Back To Cyber’s view.

Once again it was dark. I thought I had finally gone. Finally died. I guess the universe had other plans for me. Slowly my memories came back one by one. I felt weak, helpless even. My eyes started to blink open. I didn’t know for sure but I sensed that there were two other people in that room with me.
“Where am I!? Why can’t I see!?” I started to hear the two people whispering. ”He is awake.”
”What should we tell him?”
I couldn’t take it much longer. I wanted answers and I wanted them now.
“You guys can start by telling me the truth.” One of the people moved closer.
“Can you see us?” I shook my head. “Everything is black.”
“Ok then. My name is Puck. That Viscet over there is my good friend Solo. You are in the spirit realm. We brought you back to life in desperate need of your help.”
“So are you both Viscets.”
“Ya but I don’t think it matters.” I tried to move but my hands seemed to be stuck. “Why can’t I move? Why am I floating?” My whole body started to levitate and I moved up.
“If you want to stop floating you will have to calm down. Your hands are chained to the wall we can unhook you once you calm down.” I took a deep breath and started to gently fall back to the ground. “Here have some berries.” I reached out to his voice but couldn’t feel anything. “There is nothing there!”
“Umm, Solo.” The other Viscet came to join the conversation.
“It looks like your body is still in its soul ,ghost like form. But that doesn't explain the magic.”
“What magic.”
“It’s a long story. But this just means that you are practically immortal but…” Solo took a long pause.
“But what.”
“You can’t eat. Your like a ghost.”
“Tell me something I don’t know by now. Wait If I am a ghost then why can I not get out of these chains.”
“Those chains are made out of a mineral that can only be found down here in the spirit realm.”
“Ok but you guys never finished answering my question. Why am I blind? And why am I still in pain.”
“That we haven’t fully figured out yet but it would seem that none of your wounds fully healed from your battle. Your sight is gone as a normal death always is. Your body just hasn’t realized that it is alive.”
“I am still confused. What do you need me to do.”
“Look It is complicated. Puck grab the pliers.” I struggled to get out of the shackles.
“Stop moving! These shackles are almost impenetrable. The only thing that can break them are pliers made of the same material.” And just like that I was free. Struggling to stand I made my body float.
“Ok this is what we need for you to do.”

[Pacsaj]

”Are you sure this will work?”
“Positive, just as long as you do as we said.”
I opened up my blind eyes and focused on Hunter. Where are you Hunter? Just like that the portal opened just as they said it would. I jumped through. “Where is this place. I mean where am I?”
“Looks like your old place of living.”
“Solo you followed me?”
“No this is Puck. Solo is at the dungeon. Hunter did something to me too and I have to help somehow.”
“Ok but as you said it is my destiny to defeat him.” I could sense Puck nod beside me. I wandered around my old home. The new shackles placed around my paws allowed for me to feel. Solo had insisted on making gloves but I kinda like wearing shackles.
“I thought I killed you.”
I turned to face the voice.
“Well it looked like you did a bad job then. What a killer you are. Why are you killing anyway. Why finish Oliver?”
I didn’t know for sure but I could tell that Hunter was mad.
Hunter Charged at me. Gradually finding out that he cannot hurt me. But that also gave him an Idea. He grabbed the shackles around my wrist and flipped me over onto my back.
“I wouldn’t have done that if I were you.” Solo you better be right about this.
“Oh I am.”
Solo?
I can explain later. Just do your job.
I opened up my palm and allowed for dark magic to be created. I felt it on my hand. My eyes glowed. I started repeatedly shooting the magic at Hunter. “You should have left us alone!”
“Stop!” I heard Puck yelling ,screaming. “Dude you're killing him. You don’t really want to be like him do you?”
I started to calm down. The magic went back into my body. “I’m sorry. I don’t know what happened. Puck went over to Hunter and ripped the amulet from his neck. “What does that thing to anyways?”
“It can control time. Originally you were supposed to win on your first battle and Hunter was supposed to be caught on his first murder. Because of this,” he held up the amulet “Hunter was able to control destinies and time itself. Hunter could have looked to see this moment right now but failed to know that someone could beat him.”
“Speaking of him is he still alive?” Puck reached down to feel his heart beat. “Sadly I think he will make a fully recovery. Right now he is just sleeping. What should we do with him? Take him to the dungeon?”
“No,” I answered “we are going to give him to the people who have been looking for him. The police.”
“You know that we may have to go to court though.”
“I know, and I am looking forward to it.” I heard steps coming down the stairs behind me.
“Cyber? Is that you?” I turned to face the familiar voice.
“Oliver!?” I ran over to the voice not knowing I ran right through him. “Cyber what happened to you?” I turned around. “It’s a long story that I can tell you later. First we need to give this guy to the authorities.

The day of court
“Are you sure about this Cyber?”
“Positive. Ya know it feels like that is the only conversation that we have.” Puck chuckled. “I still don’t get it. Why would you turn down a chance to get your sight back?”
“I like me this way that’s why. It gives me character.”
“Ok.”
“Hurry we are going to be late.”


“All rise for the honorable judge.”
At that moment I was the witness. I felt the whole world looking at me.
“Cyber do you promise to uphold the law. Tell the truth and nothing but the truth?”
“I do.”
“Mr. Cyber would you mind telling us your story?”
“No I wouldn’t, But I warn you this may take awhile.” The Attorney looked around. “Well it looks like we have plenty of time.” I sighed
“At the beginning it was dark…”

[Pacsaj]

”Mr Hunter step up to the stand.”
“Hunter why did you do what you did?”
Hunter was never my name. That is what they called me , I grew attached to it.
“That is not my name!”
“Well then Mr. Hunter what do we call you?”
“You can call me by my real name. My name is Baine...Baine Palmer.”
“I grew up in a family of nobodies. With one goal. Make a name for the Palmers. Where I grew up we were trash. We were invisible. My family was taken hostage by a man who calls him self Bruised. He told me I had to prove my self. Prove that my family did have meaning. To show that we are strong. There was only one way to do this. According to him I had to kill. Get rid of the other small timers. The other no bodies. He promised that my family could become a somebody. He lied. I killed many people. It became a hobby. Once I got back to him he said that I had kept him wait for too long. My family was gone. I vowed to murder everyone who was a part of that. And that included the Keyes ,cybers family, even though you might not think it they played a big part. The mother and father both helped set up the whole thing. So go for it. Put me in jail!”
“No further questions your honor.” They grabbed me by the cuffs and dragged me back to the holding cell. I had only pleaded not guilty so I could explain. Just as long as they got the one person I couldn’t, I think I will be just fine.

[Pacsaj]

The trial was over and the people one. It was as easy as that. No one had to get hurt. It was a tough decision but I decide to move back in with Oliver. After being claimed dead for a month I figured that Oliver really needed someone around.

“Are you sure you don’t want to come back and live with us.”
“Sorry Puck But I really want to just be with Oliver right now. I can always come and visit. You know that.” He nodded, “If anything goes wrong though come down and visit. Oh and please don’t turn into one of those crime fighting , vigilantes.”
“Don’t worry about me Puck. Just go.” I slowly pushed him towards he portal and waved him goodbye.” Oliver walked up beside me. “Why didn’t you take his offer?” I knew what he was going to say but didn’t want to answer that question so I just went for the next best thing. “So I could be with you.” He shook his head just as predicted. “No why did you not want to become real again.” I placed my hand on his shoulder. I knew it would go right through him but I could feel the cuff land on him. I turned to face him. “Sometimes Oliver things are a lot more complicated than it looks. I didn’t want to go back because I knew it would be the same. I couldn’t just jump back in where I left off. Understand? I wanted to start a new life.”
“What about me?”
“I didn’t get that far.” Oliver took my hand off his shoulder. “Thanks but no thanks. You need sometime to think.” I sighed as he walked away. I knew in my heart that this would happen one day. But what he said was true I needed sometime to think.
