The ride on the motorcycle took longer than Innu thought. Maybe it was because he was fearing for his life while holding on. Every second he just wanted to get off sooner, and it also seed like Blake didn’t care as he was whizzing past other cars.
Eventually, though, they had stopped. They were in an area that was between cities. They had ridden to the top of a mountain, and the bike was parked on the side where one could see the pathway they had co from.
It was a windy, dirt-like road, and there was a lot of greenery. Out here, it felt like it was the middle of nowhere.
“I think you’ll be happy about this, but we have to walk the rest of the way,” Blake said.
Rather than going further down, they had to carry on going up. Here they passed by a gate, where there were a few n standing guard, each of them wearing black masks that only showed their eye holes.
‘I guess since we’re now seeing Altered Hunters in public, we’re in the right place.’
During their walk up the mountain, they could see others making the climb as well. It was a mix of different people. So chose to wear their hunter masks, hiding their faces, while others didn’t care.
For Blake and Innu, the two of them didn’t have masks on either. Seeing this, Innu realized it was really hard to pick out who was and who wasn’t a hunter from the general public.
They were young, old, female, and male. So looked fit and ready, but there were a few with beer bellies and seed incredibly average. In a gang, nearly everyone was strong and had so level of athleticism. To beco an Altered, one had to be the top of the top, but it was different here.
Reaching the top, Innu didn’t know what he was expecting up here. He just didn’t think there would be this.
“It’s an entire building all the way up here in the mountains.” Innu said out loud.
The building wasn’t small by any ans and was built into the mountains itself. The outside was sturdy with grey concrete and large pillars. It was a modern-day fortress.
“A lot of our bases are like this, so don’t be surprised. There are large landmarks that aren’t even on the map or any GPS,” Blake explained. “This is one of the bigger ones, I guess because everyone has been called here.”
Looking around, there were thousands of people going in through these tunnel-like entrances, all heading inside. Innu and Blake did the sa, and when stepping through the doors, they felt like they had entered a large grand palace.
It was an empty room with almost nothing in it, but the floor seed to be made of a type of smooth rock. It was sohow cold inside as well. The top of the ceiling was nearly impossible to see because the darkness of the room reached it before one's eyes did.
“I’m glad to see that you are still looking strong, even with my absence.”
The two of them had heard a voice and turned around. Innu hadn’t even felt soone approach them or get so close to them. It was strange because the sound of footsteps was echoing when they walked.
“Father, it is good to see you are in good health as well.” Blake bowed down.
Innu, seeing what Blake was doing, bowed down as well. ‘Is this how Blake acts in front of his father? It doesn’t seem like so much of a father and son relationship. Not that I would know much about that. Still, it could just be an Altered Hunter thing.’
When Innu lifted his head, he could see the old man’s eyes staring at him, almost piercing right through him.
“I can guess that this is your apprentice. I had heard the news that you managed to get one, but I just never expected him to be so young,” Ozacas said.
There was a reason why Ozacas was being sceptical because Altered Hunters, if recruited so young like Blake was, usually were through the family. It was rare to find a person that was so talented at a young age without the right amount of training.
“He has passed the assessnt,” Blake stated. “He will not disappoint or tarnish our na.”
This is what Blake assud his father was worried about. Because Innu was an apprentice of Blake, his actions would affect their position and trust in the family.
“Anyway, today there will be sothing unexpected,” Ozacas said. “This is not just a normal eting. I can’t say any more, otherwise you will have an unfair advantage over the others, but I will say this… you must think of everyone who is in this room as competition.”
With only those words, Ozacas was off. They hadn’t seen each other in a long ti. His father hadn’t been ho in a while, and yet the only thing they had talked to each other about was that.
Innu had caught a glance of Blake’s pained face, expressing these concerns. ‘I guess everyone has their own family issues, and I need to fight for mine.’
More people were starting to co into the grand hall, and it was starting to get cramped a bit.
“Hey, I think I'm going to try to go and look for Ashen and say hi,” Innu stated. “We might get lost if we split up, so just stay here, and I’ll co back when this big eting starts.”
Before Blake could say anything, Innu was already running off. Looking through the crowd, he could see that most were wearing sleeveless shirts, this way they could show off the number of stars they had on their arms.
He knew Ashen was a five-star hunter, so he thought it would be relatively easy. That’s when Innu spotted soone.
A small frad man, who was wearing a black sleeveless hoodie and had two swords on his back. At the sa ti, he wore a mask that just covered the bottom of his face like he was so kind of ninja.
Innu didn’t care about any of that, though. He mostly noticed the five stars.
“Excuse , sir,” Innu said, bowing down and lifting his head. “I was wondering if you could help look for soone.”
The man glanced at Innu, surprised that soone he didn’t recognize would co up to him like so.
“I haven’t seen you before. Are you fairly new? How many stars do you have?” The man asked back.
“Um…I’m just an apprentice, so I have no stars,” Innu said.
Just then, the man felt like he was ready to be on his way, and Innu could see this.
“Wait, the one I’m looking for, I’m sure you would know him. He’s a five-star hunter as well, Ashen.”
This na had caught the man’s attention, and he turned back around to look at Innu again.
“What business would you have with Ashen?”
“Well, he kinda taught for a bit, so I wanted to speak to him and ask him how he thought I was progressing,” Innu answered honestly. He saw no harm in his answer because they were all Altered Hunters here.
‘Ashen having his own student… I never heard of that before,’ the man thought.
“I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this, kid, but Ashen is dead.”
(Note: I didn’t realise that I used the sa na for Ashen Gang, and Ashen the Altered Hunter. These two are not related nor are they the sa person.)
