The Human Who Sparked Chaos
A new city, A strang encounter
Hikaru
Ugh..... New city, new school, and still no friends.
Hikaru
💭 At least the sky looks nice...... Even if everything else sucks.
An old woman is struggling with heavy bags at the bus stop.
Hikaru
Ma'am.... Do you need help?
old woman
Oh, what a sweet boy. Yes, please.
Hikaru grabs the bags, surprisingly heavier than they look.
Hikaru
What..... Are these filled with bricks?
old woman
Memories. Some heavier than other.
They both board the bus. Hikaru finds a window seat.
old woman
You've got a strong heart, boy. Not many would stop for an old soul like me.
Hikaru
I was raised right, I guess.
The bus hums to life and departs. The city grows distant.
old woman
I'd like to give you something.
She places a glowing silver locket in his palm.
old woman
This is a strength locket. It will protect you. Guide you...... In the war to come.
Hikaru
(confused) War.....? What are you talking ab-
old woman
The nonhuman are awaking. And you..... you are their herald.
Suddenly, wind erupts inside the bus.
The old woman vanishes. Her seat is empty.
Hikaru
Okay. Nope. Nope. That didn't just happen.
Bus Driver
Next stop 'Deadwood junction.'
Hikaru
💭 This day just keep getting weirder.
Hikaru steps off the bus. The street is eerily quiet.
Hikaru
..... Why do I hear growling?
Suddenly - two figures dart from the shadows.
He runs-fast- vaulting over a fence into a massive black -iron gated garden.
Hikaru
(panting) what the hell is going on?!
Hikaru
Is this because of the locket?!
Two figures land in front of him - female vampire.
vempire girl 1
Hevena. We got a trespasser.
vempire girl 2
Hell. He's human. Should we drein him?
Hikaru
I-I didn't mean to trespss!
They lunge. Hikaru tries to fight. Fails.
Hevena
Wait..... The locket.
Hevena
That's the locket.
Hevena
Take him to the Queen
Fangs and fur.
Hikaru
(struggling) Hey! Easy- I'm not your dinner!
Hevena
(coldly) You ran into our territory, human. You don't get to complete.
Hell
(grinning) But if you're the one with the locket..... Then this is destiny.
Hikaru
Locket! You mean this thing the creepy old woman gave me?
Hikaru holds up the silver locket. It glows faintly in the moonlight.
Hevena
.... it's real, I can feel it.
Hell
The strength locket of Queen's prophecy.
Hikaru
What prophecy?! Can someone PLEASE explain what's going on?!
The vampire glance at each other.
Then grab Hikaru by both arms.
Hevena
You'll get your answers. From queen Miseal.
Hikaru
Wait - Queen? There's a vempire QUEEN?!
Moment late - inside the crimson mansion.
The grand throne room. Walls lined with ancient mirrors, fire-lit chandeliers, and dark velvet drapes.
Miseal
(Calm, elegant) So you are the one fate dragged into our world.
Hikaru
(Nervous) I didn't ask to be dragged in !
Miseal
Yet you hold the locket.
Miseal
My grandmother forget it, to find the human who would end our exile.
Hevena
(Explaining) The nonhuman world was sealed away after the great hunt. The humans feared us, hunted us. Drove us into shadow.
Hell
But one day, a humen would enter our sealed realm.... and lead us back.
Miseal
To conquer the world..... And reclam what was ours.
Hikaru
You think I'm that human?
Miseal
No. I know you are.
Miseal
(dark smile) Then you may leave. If you can make it, past the beasts outside.
Hikaru
💭The old woman....... The locket...... the chase.......
Hikaru
💭This was never random.
Hikaru
(quietly) ....... Then teach me
Hikaru
Train me. If I'm fated to be your weapon....... I want to choose how I'm used.
Miseal
(Nods) Wise..... For a human.
