"WHY IS THERE A PIG IN OUR BASE?!?!"
"Technically its a boar Akira."
"I DONT CARE WHAT IT IS, GET IT OUTTT!"
"What is my brother all the sudden afraid of a little pig?"
"IT WONT STAY LITTLE FOR LONG!"
"Well duh that's how aging tends to work."
"And that doesn't concern you?!?"
"Oink!"
"Huh?!?"
The little pig walks up to the leg of Akira and starts scratching against his leg.
"AHHHHHHG ITS EATING MEEEEE!"
"SHUT UP YOU IDIOT!"
"AHHHHHH SHE'S BEATING MEEEE!"
"SHUT UP!"
"Anyways!"
The pig licks Akira's wounded and bruised head.
"We have one more job to do, and it will take a few days to get there and back."
. . .
"So I'm only taking Akira, Sadoe, and myself."
"Wait but-
"Osiris your wounded anyways."
"But I can still fi-
"Walk, you can still walk."
"No I can fight!" Osiris pleads.
"Not the target we're after."
"The speedy assassin?!?"
"I can keep up!"
"No you can't Osiris."
"I can and I wi-
" I won't let you twist your ankle again here!"
"Bu-
"Against a speedster as well!"
"I can keep u-
"If you were to fall, you would die!"
"This is way to important to out rankings Osiris."
Osiris turns to Akira pleading.
"I won't let you slow us down now."
The words struck her like a bullet."
"You aren't the only one not going either!"
Osiris turns to Hisoka.
"I want to go to!"
"But the commander gave her orders, we are to follow them!"
Osiris turned to Sadoe for one last glimer of hope.
"I pray you understand Osiris, You will end up slowing us down if you come."
Osiris froze there.
. . .
"I see."
. . .
"Good!" Annya claps her hands
"Get some rest people!"
"Oink!"
They all turn to the pig.
"He sleeps with you Akira!"
"Huh?"
And just like that they all bolted to their rooms except for Osiris and Akira.

Osiris stood there in shock.
"Hey it's uh.....it's ok."
Osiris fell back onto the couch.
"I truly am weak, aren't I?!?"
"Osiris your fine, its just-
"I'm not ready?"
"Well... Yeah!"
"I've been told that all my life Akira...."
"And it will never change.... will it?"
"Osiris I-I don't know what you expect me to say."
"Nothing anymore Akira."
"Nothing anymore...."
Osiris lays in her bed. Staring at the ceiling.
Every so often I'm reminded of my place in this world, the pit of the weak and helpless trying to dig their way out. No matter how hard I try, I am incapable of magic ability or forming an aura.
I am weak.
"You know their doing it cause you got hurt right?"
Osiris jumps a little at the voice.
"Daichi..."
"Sorry, but what they said is true."
"You too, huh?"
"Sorry Osiris, but your the only real family I've ever known."
"After Mom and Dad left us on the street!"
"Yeah..."
"And I won't lose you over you being stubborn."
. . .
"So just stay here with me, Pig, and Hisoka while the three are gone!"
"Pig?"
Daichi turns to her grinning.
"That's the boars name!"
"And when did we decide this?"
"I did just now!"
"Ha!"
"What?!?"
"Nothing, we can name it pig."
"Her."
"I'm sorry, we can name HER again.
"Haha!"
"Good night Daichi!"
"Good night Osiris!"
Osiris rolls over again, facing the stars out her window.
"Mom and dad..."
Osiris awakes.
The smell fills her nose, causing her to gag.
Burning bodies...
There's a baby crying off in the distance. She fly's up out of her bed. Her siblings beds all empty already.
All 8 beds are empty.
She closes on her door peeking out of it, the hallway is half filled with smoke, but she can still see.
She sees her older sister running towards her with something in her arms. A baby?!?
"Osiris!" She calls
"Bastet!" She called back.

Bastet fell onto Osiris Take Isis, and leave, QUICK!"
"Wha-whats going on?!?"
"I-I *COUGH* I don't know.."
She collapsed onto the ground in front of Osiris.
Isis crying the entire time.
Osiris looked up, three men rounded the corner of the hallway.
"G-GO!"
Bu-
"NOW!"
Osiris got up with Isis in hand, sprinting to the door.
"There the child!"
"After her!"
Bastet stands up, the extent of her wounds obvious now.
She was going to die.
"STAY AWAY FROM THEM YOU BASTARDS!"
Her hand glows as they stab her. She summons a rock wall to stop them from getting to Osiris.
Osiris ran as hard as she ever had. She rounded a corner and bumped into someone. She fell down and looked up. "Osiris!"
It was Anubis!
"Are you ok?!?"
"Osiris stood up and cried in his arms, Bother they hurt Bastet!"
"Where is she?!?"
"Back down the hallway!"
"Wait here Osiris, I'll be right back!"
"Ok brother!"
Anubis jumped up and rushed down the hall, the screams and fire where scary, and Osiris was terrified.
What if he doesn't come back?!?
What if these mean men catch me?!?
Where is dad?!?
"Osiris..."
Osiris looked up to Anubis, he was terrified.
"We have to leave.."
"But what about everyone else?!?"
"We'll come back for them!"
Anubis picked up Osiris who was holding Isis, and bolted down the hallway.
"Cover your nose in my coat Osiris!"
"Ok!"
*swoooosh*
He swung the door open, his eyes shriveled in fear.
The entire courtyard had been burnt down.
The sky was painted red at midnight.
"Anubis..?"
He snapped out of it and bolted for the exit.
"HOLD IT!!"
Anubis stopped and turned around.
"Osiris when I say run, run and don't ever look back."
"Anubis?!?"
"One day, you will understand."
"Why this happened, why you aren't like us, why they all hated you, why father and me are the only ones who loved you."
"One day it will all make sense Osiris, but now you run, and don't ever turn back."
"HE HAS THE CHILD, GET HIM!"
"Don't ever turn back!"
"GIVE US THE CHILD!".
"GO!"
"But Anubis I can fig-
"NO YOU CANT, PLEASE JUST LISTEN!!"
He turned to Osiris and shoved a knife in her hand, the dragon knife of her family.
"You are our last Light Osiris!"
Osiris looked up at him, he was crying.
"Then she looked behind him, a wall of fire was protecting them.
"Please run and Never Turn BACK!"
He pushed Osiris and she ran with her little brother, ran straight into the woods.
But she made the mistake. She looked back, and she saw her brother get stabbed through the back.
"STUPID HERETIC, DIE!!
The men shouted stabbing his body over and over.
Osiris ran into the forest, with her little brother Isis.
"The map Osiris."
"You don't want to be weak!"
She awoke again, but instead of the house, or the Prototype hall, it was just a void, she was floating in a void.
"Use the map Osiris, your weakness will disappear, you can protect everyone!"
The voice called.
She turned to the voices direction.
She saw a green figure climbing an infinite stairwell.
And a blue figure behind him.
"We can save your loved one's, Just follow the map!"
"We have the power you seek, for any use you please!"
They continued climbing the infinite stairs.
"The use of it is infinite, Power, Money, Status!"
"Revenge..."
"Just climb these stairs with us and your journey to Avenging your family begins!"
She reached for his hand.
"OSIRISSSSS!"
Osiris shoots up outta bed.
Daichi falls on the floor laughing.
"Not cool man!"
"Haha, shoulda seen your face!"
Osiris looked around the room. She then looked out the window, and heard the busy city below.
"Osiris??"
She turned to Daichi who was looking at her cock headed.
"Sorry what do you want Daichi."
"Uh breakfast?"
"Ha right!"
