waking up to an unexpected company isn't always comforting

"where am I?"Ken asked as he woke up, feeling some pain and winced so badly that the figure in front of him chuckled

"your awake- - -"his words were broke off by a flicker of disgust in his eyes then he said "- - -ken I presume?","yes" the boy said,flashing him a thin lipped and quick smile the figure in front of him chuckled softly and stood up as he announced who he was "- - -"

"im Lucian, guardian of the underworld" the words underworld stung him like a gun shot right through the chest, underworld? does this mean I'm dead? he thought,his heart quick and light,his drifting thoughts shattered by the heavy words- - -"yes your dead,don't you remember anything at all?"the thin man said as he went out of the dark to a chest full of treasures,this guy was about 7'8 feet tall,with a remarkably terrible posture for a man this handsome,he looked as if he was in his twenties and he hadn't slept for ages,but considering the title he gave him self,It wouldn't be surprising if it was true,he wore a long robe trickled with marks, ancient ruens? and some bad *** glasses that made him look like one of the guys in a movie about a priest biker,to top it off his nukls pale white and with eyes silver,that seemed to shoot a poison out of them.Ken stood up and Intriguingly investigated his long scar that ran from one side of his neck to the other,thin long teeth that made Ken whisper"los niño de Luna" and Lucian answered"no I'm not one of the moons children"with a bit of poison that shot from the sentence.The man walked over to Ken and gave him a sword and marked him with ruens,Ken,being a simple minded 14 yr old asked:"Is it magic?" and Lucian answered him with a flat but stinging tone"no it's not,magic is a dark force that destroys all you love and shatters your inner being,these are just simple protection ruens,and the sword is to help you fight"as Lucian sent him out, he told him"you have seven days,to find your way out of here ... if the sun sets on your seventh day you'll be trapped here,and you'll be claimed dead in the mortal world- - -"

It had been a while since he left Lucian's , trailing off to the city of ember where Lucian pointed him to--- you see Ken,had died In an accident,not any accident involving cars,but a rather funny and unusual accident:it happened on the very same day,on Tuesday,when he was on a mission the Cleve gave him and his sister,this is lame,he would say as they ran into the woods to locate a rogue vampire,they located it,and fought a bloody fight,in the midst of the battle,the moons children with bared claws showed up, ready to kill his sister, instinctively she jumped out of the way as just jumped in front of it's claws,lashing out a fierce blow to his chest,he laid there blood gushing out of his ribs,by the time he was about to die,he was already at Magnus bane's house receiving treatment..."you shadow Hunters always seem to get your self into trouble" a voice came from the door,a feminine voice,cracked with age- - -"just like his uncle" as the figure moved to the light his sight blacked out,and that's the last he saw or heard,next thing he was in the underworld. Breaking his day dream,was a black figure,a blurry figure moving around him,and it struck from the back,with a remarkably terrible speed he pounced on to the figure:the figure turned out to be a girl,red haired girl with a long braid and a surprising cut on her hand;she wore black lether clothes and it hit him,she was a naphilim just like him,a shadow Hunter . Standing up he looked at her with a dull and stinging look "do all shadow hunters come to the under world when they die?" while getting up she answered,no you idiot they don't:she seemed like the kind of girl that didn't tolerate shit if she saw it so he thought best not to disturb her

to think death would be scary,but here I am riding off to God knows where trying to get my life back
