Fuuuu~ , Finally at home, it’s been 10 entire days” Said the exhausted Ribeiro who was finally at the entrance of Wasteland Valley. He brought with him the seeds for the agriculture zone that Alfonso asked him for. In his package there were 5 huge bags, in total, he spent all the gold that the later Lord left behind to buy these seeds.

After arriving at the entrance, he saw a pack of wolves running towards him, he was scared, however, he remembered what happened before he left and stood there. The wolves checked him, smell him and then help him to carry the bags.

“Wow, these wolves are smarter than I thought!” Though Ribeiro while going to the manor.

……………….

“My lord , I am back” Said Ribeiro while kneeling before Alfonso.

“Good job Ribeiro, how was it? Did you get what I asked you?”

“According to your majesty’s order, I brought 5 bags, 3 of them contains cereals while the order ones contain vegetables.” Informed Ribeiro.

“One more bag than what I originally though….. good job Ribeiro, you deserve some rest I will give you one three days off, you deserve it” Said Alfonso with a pleasant smile.

“Your words are enough my lord, I don’t have a family, so I wouldn’t know to spend my free time” Said Ribeiro with a bitter smile.

He had dedicated all his life to the royal family, of course, he had a lover here and there, but his situation didn’t let him establish a family. After that, Ribeiro when on his way towards his room.

Alfonso felt a little bad for Ribeiro.

“He is just like me back then, married to our jobs…” Though Alfonso.

……………….

It was a cold night as usual in Wasteland Valley, everything dies at six, no one wanted to be outside, it was too cold after all, so the nights on Wasteland Valley were dead silence, this night however, it was different.

“I can’t believe we have to come here, this dead land is as cold as everyone says” A young man wearing a thin black cloth was regretting the fact that they accepted this mission, however, there wasn’t much they could do, it was an order of the lord after all.

“Well, nothing to do about it, let’s end this quietly, after all, we only have to know where that guy went to” Said another man in black cloth, the voice of this man was deeper than the former one, he was older.

“Cat 1 , cat 2 , stop chit chatting, lets get going” Said another person, this person’s cloth was different from the other two, the cloth was purple, in the cat’s organization, this cloth represent the females, so obviously, this person was a female, from her voice , one could determinate that she was at least 30 years old.

“Cat 3 its right, lets finish this quickly” Said Another purple-clothed person, this person was the leader of this small squad, her size was the smallest of all the team, and, apparently for her voice, the youngest one.

After hearing what cat four had said, the other three change their attitude and enter Wasteland Valley, the only light that they could see was the moon light, however, this environment was their favorite one, after all , from and organization that works in the shadows, the night was a perfect camouflage.

After walking silently for ten minutes, they notice how huge Wasteland Valley was.

“This is a little…. Strange” Murmured Cat four.

“What is it?” Asked Cat two.

“Well you know, this place was supposed to be the scenery of a fight between the horde and the people from Wasteland Valley…but…. The houses seem undamaged…. Don’t you find it strange?”

“….. Now that you mention it….” Said Cat one.

They stopped their tracks for some time, they were in the commoner’s zone, they looked at every side, but, just as cat four has mention, this place didn’t look like the scenery of any fight at all.

“This is strange indeed…..” Said Cat three.

“Mmm…. What’s that?” Asked Cat four looking at the darkness.

Not to far from they were, something was approaching slowly, it was a pair of blue eyes, however, this eyes were profound , like human ones, but they knew that it couldn’t be humans, why?, because while the silhouette approached, they notice that it were too small to be humans.

“Its that… a puppy?” Asked Cat one.

In front of them , a cute puppy with grey-white fur was approaching, after seeing the small puppy, the fourth of them made an relieve sigh.

“What….. is only a small puppy, it quite cute, come here little boy~” Said cat two.

“We don’t have time Cat three” Said Cat one

“Don’t so stingy, I have never seemed this kind of puppy before though..” Said Cat two.

“Anyway lets go, we still have to find that guy.” Said Cat one.

“I don’t think that is possible”

Suddenly a voice come from nowhere, the four of them rapidly take out their daggers and assumed their position, however, they didn’t see anyone.

“What the….. It couldn’t be…” The four of them had the same though, their gaze fell on the small puppy.

“Its… its not possible…. Right?” Asked Cat three.

“I am afraid that is it possible, you little rats have entered somewhere you shouldn’t….” Said the small puppy with its cute small mouth.

“?????? A ….. a talking puppy???” Asked Cat four.

“I don’t know what are you or who send you, but you better get out of the way, or else..!” Said Cat one while pointing her daggers to the little puppy.

“Oh… you have spirited little girl, in normal times I wouldn’t bother with you, however, I am the sword of my lord so, Lets start our game.” Said The little puppy.

Just went he finished a dagger came and cut its neck! , the cut was clean, it was obvious that the person who did it had killed many times like this, and who was the person who did this?, It was obviously Cat one.

“This is not good…” Said Cat one.

“What is it? You finish it didn’t you?” Asked concerned Cat three.

“…..My instincts are telling me just one word…..DEATH “Murmured Cat one.

Cat one’s instinct had saved her uncountable times in the past, so he trusted his feelings one hundred percent, and her instinct were telling her one phrase.

“We have to get out of here as fast as we can!”

“Oh? Are you leaving already? That won’t do…. The game is just starting after all”

Suddenly, a deathly voice came, went all of them turned around, they saw the “dead” puppy, looking at them just like before, however, this time, its eyes were as black as the darkness.

“Run!” Cat three shout, however, when they turned around, they saw 20 wolves surrounded them.

“This night is just perfect for a game, isn’t it?…. well them…..Let’s resume our game, shall we?

Said the little puppy, who was slowly walking towards them.
