Thread: The Fairy and the Guardian (Starring Frogger and CaptainNexus616)

And so it begins once more A man with a long white beard narrated flipping the pages of his book. A guardian awakened at the call of a soul in need of aid. Their path would be long, dangerous, and filled with more peril than most souls have seen. he said turning the page to show a flaming inferno with piercing red eyes amongst the flames. Another page turned to show a group cloaked in black with a red skull. However this is not a path our protagonists will walk alone. He said stopping on the page of a particular guild mark appearing behind a blonde haired woman and a tall figure cloaked in red with glowing green eyes as dozens of others stood behind them. So it begins again he spoke with a sigh. -Seven Years Later- The sounds of frantic screaming were heard as helpless children were forcefully separated from their parents and corralled into separate cages. Buildings lit ablaze in the helpless town that fell pray to the infamous Cackling Jackals. A dark guild that was infamous for taking on jobs from a large selection of slavers and less than pleasant people seeking new subjects for experimentation. Small villages were known to vanish overnight by this group of skilled maniac oriented wizards. The Jackals made sure to waste not any product of value. Children fetched higher prices for their longevity and long term investments. Males as soldiers and workers. Women as breeders and concubines. However the elderly had no value for their age and frail structure. So they were rounded up and brought to the center of town, where they would be disposed off properly. This dark guild was gaining infamy throughout the lands of Fiore. It was reaching the point other countries fearing these strings of abductions would grow. The Jackals greatest mistake however was their pride. Each time they took the innocent away from their home they left their signature amongst the dead. Their guild seal on proud display to the authorities that arrived too late each time. It had drawn the ire of many seeking to make these monsters pay. The Jackals loading the remaining product into the cages preparing for departure were unprepared for what their fate would yield. Screams rung out as the Jackals preparing to dispose of the elders were beaten into unconsciousness. It was quite unfortunate for this band of slavers for hire, for they had began to become predictable in their actions. The Jackals guarding the perimeter began to panic as they were slowly picked off. Predictable enough for one politician who's favorite mistress had relatives living in this family. Enough persuasion can make any man set up a reasonable solution to a woman's concerns. The members of the Cackling Jackals watched as a figure emerged from the flames. For now the members of this dark guild had gained the attention the predators who specialize in neutralizing this kind of prey. Fire streaking across his red cape as his glowing green eyes glared at his foes. There had to be thirty of them, all strong and no doubt skilled in their craft to the verge of perfection. The Jackals knew all to well who this individual was. The cape parted revealing his body all muscle covered in a tight black suit with a white v shapped detail on his torso with spiked red gloves and boots. This was one of the two Hunters, those who hunted Dark Guilds as their job My master! Azrael's voice boomed out to Genesis. What are your orders! he requested. His cloak moving and about as if it was made of nothing but fire. Chains writhing in front of him with spikes and claws at the end of them.
