Ion with that experienced murderous look, wouldn't want to be the person on the other end of that stare as they might not have much longer to live
~
The town that is never suppose to sleep, where all your fantasies and desires can come true, the atmosphere can be so much to take in but just remember one thing, try not to loose your soul. People come here to make it big, to take advantage of all this place has to offer not knowing that any time they could be next for there was a high risk reward to this place. There are stories of those who hit it big one day and disappear the next or just wined up dead with no signs of why. But there are people who make it out and are set for life, it is the stories of these that make people want to come here, ignoring the risks. Hunters from all over came here to investigate the town's dark secretes but they too, all of them have vanished without a trace. Figuring that this town could be messing with the forces of the forbidden, the Hunters sent one of their specialists that had access to this secrete knowledge to take care of the problem. The town by day was bustling with people everywhere but a night the streets were silent and no one was anywhere to be scene, so much for the town that never sleeps the Hunter thought.
Walking down the street though, you could feel the sense of many eyes on you, like you were being followed but there was nobody there. Ion had his suspicions of what was going on but hoped it wasn't true. Suddenly Ion felt a weird presence coming towards his way, Ion put his guard up and stood ready for an engagement as someone ran out from one of the many alleyways. Looking closer it seamed as the person was in distress though with no visible signs as to why. They suddenly fell to the ground with nothing but a blank stare in their face. Ion could sense the presence of two others coming his way with a more malicious intent in their auroras. Ion's suspicions were confirmed when one of the two were carrying a small odd looking container, joyfully shouting out they got another while the other was ecstatic about a "big payday". Both of them were unaware they were in the presence of another as they were trying to figure out what to do about the body. Then out of nowhere the two sense a eminence blood lust fill the air and the sound of sparks filled their ears as they looked up to see a small fox staring at them with cold murderous eyes and a ball of formed lightning in their hand. It was a presence they had never felt before as they tried to retain their composure.
They shouted out to the mysterious figure asking who he was and why he was there to no response just that murderous stare back at them with the lightning intensifying. As they started to regain their composure, the two though it was another naive Hunter coming to try and Hunt them down, trying to use an old scare tactic to seam more fearful then they were but in the back of their minds they felt this was somewhat different. They dealt with Hunters before, they were noting special to them as Hunters didn't seam to know the true nature behind their technique, this one was no different was he? The two began their attack, one of them getting behind Ion while the other stayed in front. The one from behind thrusted towards Ion hoping to provoke his attack though he simply dodged out of the way with lightning speed turning back towards the other quickly deflecting the attack from the other, while severely shocking him with the ball of lightning. Though the counter attack was unwanted, the one from behind thought the Hunter fell for their bluff, revealing a second "empty" odd looking container with the cap off. Ion looked down at his feet for a moment to see the container's cap laying there as suddenly a strange symbol appeared on it. A mysterious force seamed to restrain the Hunter as it looked like he could do nothing as energy swirled around him. Both of them laughed at their captured Hunter, telling him he was dealing with forces he would not understand.
As the energy dissipated, the odd container started to glow a strange hue as Ion fell to his knees. Excited that they took down another Hunter, one of them suddenly stopped celebrating, mentioning that the container felt somewhat empty. Turning back to the fallen Hunter they were surprised that he was remaining upright on his knees and not fallen fully to the ground by now. Getting a sense of nervousness, they both slowly walked over to Ion and stared into the closed eyes on his face. Poking him in various places, the Hunter was not waking up as the two relaxed a little. But when one of them tried to do one final check, Ion's eyes suddenly opened as he grabbed a hold of the arm that was about to touch him. He screamed out in fear calling his partner over to him for help but all he could hear was quick sound of a slice and the sound of two objects hitting the ground hard. Trembling in fear, he met his eyes with the Hunter's but noticed something was off, the eyes that stared back at him were blue, weren't the eyes of the Hunter orange, he could remember those murderous eyes looking at him before, they were defentally orange. These eyes looking at him also seamed off in another way, they looked more innocent and not murderous like before.
Then suddenly the Hunter cracked a large child like smile as he could sense another presence behind him, looking up he could see another figure of the Hunter with those orange murderous eyes again. His mind tried to process that there couldn't be two of them, there was no way, he was seeing things, but that came to an end suddenly as he felt a sharp pain in his chest and could feel warm liquid running down his torso. He fell to the ground sideways, his heart struggling to beat as darkness started encompassing his eyes. As light started to fade from his view, he saw the two forms of the Hunter combine into one, cursing that he fell for an illusion of a shifty fox to meet his end, though the final words he herd was the Hunter telling him that there are things he wouldn't understand. Before he could process what that meant, the light fully faded from his view and he was gone.
Ion walked over to the severed remains of the other he cut down, taking that odd container that was used on him and started to drink. It only too a few sips before the container stopped glowing, with Ion remarking that did they think that his was so small. Ion then grabbed the other container and walked over to the stilled remains of the first person he encountered, kneeling down beside him. Upon closer inspection, Ion cursed to himself that he was too late as he stood up and opened the odd container, releasing it contents into the atmosphere. Ion tearfully said he was sorry and hoped it would find solace in being set free. When the container stopped glowing, Ion set it aside and look at the mess he created. Dawn was starting to break as people would start to fill the streets again. Ion decided to let the local authorities deal with the cleanup as he had other duties to fulfill. Reporting back to HQ, Ion confirmed their suspicions as they wanted to send more Hunter specialists to deal with the situation. Ion told them not to worry yet as this was only the beginning, there were more secretes in this town to uncover and a higher Hunter presence might rap those secrets. The others agreed to wait to send a full force out as Ion would gather more information, though he was told to watch his back and to get out of there if things start going sideways. Ion told them again not to worry as he hung up and set back out, there was much more work to be done and more secretes to uncover
