I feel a small hand clench against my arm. Annie grips tightly, as her nails dig deep into my skin. I put my palm against her knuckles. Mouthing it will be okay. She nods, as I slowly stand up. The ground below my squeaks, as I believe the beast has gone, the oak wood above me is suddenly torn. A ray of light shines into my eyes, as splinters fall onto my body. The wood is ripped from its foundations, and thrown into the street.

I endlessly stare into the large eyes of the beast. The humanoid monster crouches down, as it's solid black scales, and it's large yellow nails claw quickly rips through my shirt, and stabs me in my chest. I turn my head to see Annie cover her mouth, trying to scream. Blood trickles, and drips onto the floor beneath me. As the hunching monstrosity begins to drool, it's spike-like teeths form out of it's mouth, as it's large red eyes blink sideways. It's tail wraps around my body, as it takes out it's nail.

I wait for it to finish me, to eat me. I mumble something. I forgot what. As I do, I notice blood dripping from it's teeth. It had gotten to my mother. As I prepare for death, it's tail coils me almost unconscious. With just my luck, the highest pitched screech blows my eardrums. It's saliva roars out of it's mouth. As it's tail's grip weakens, I release myself. Dropping onto the basement floor. My ribs feel broken, as my leg is weak. As the world is rattling around me, I notice Annie sobbing, crawling towards me. Her black, dirty hair brushes against the floor, as she lies her hand on my chest.

She takes it off, looking at the black-like blood. She almost faints, but lies her head against me. I put my hand over her head, and tightly hug her. The pain is agonizing. I almost cry myself, but I hold it in. I grin, as I notice the monster seemingly beginning to tilt towards me. It looks like it is almost falling. My eyes surge open, as I notice it is falling forward. I use my last bit of strength to grab Annie's small body and put it over my shoulder, kneeing down of pain. But I manage to run upstairs, and out of the house's window, before the monster's fall shakes the ground below me. I notice behind me that something was inserted into the monster's back. As I look closer, I notice two small iron sword slashed into his back, where there is an open area of flesh.

A large man, with long black hair approaches me. His eye-patch is cut off, revealing a large cut that goes over his eye. His arm is bleeding, as he limps towards me. I sit down Annie, and tell her to stay here. Again, she nods.

"I'm sorry." he grumbles. I shake my head. Stunned to say anything, I slowly cry. He hugs me, as Annie comes by. He begins to cry as well, grabbing her. I look at my little sister. Her expression is dark and cold. I've never seen this before. Her large eyes are shaking, as a shadow is casted over her face. The house behind me slowly crumples, as the monster around me roars.

On that day, our small village was destroyed. Fire raged throughout, as the monsters annihilated us. Annie and I were able to escape, with a small tunnel route that leads towards the main city. The monsters, otherwise known as the Harvesters, were our predators. We were their preys, and have been since our operation to explore the vast dimension known as the Nether had failed. As the portal opened, an incredibly powerful explosion destroyed anything within hundreds of miles. They had done this far from the human's home, although, the land was claimed by what are known as the Nether region.

The Takers are the most basic monsters. They simply eat us. Our village is protected by the trees, which the monsters cannot see us through. They are thick and large, enough for us to stay hidden. Today, they seem to evolve. Their vision prowess enlarged, and we were defeated. The brief feeling of victory, and the everlasting taste of defeat.

My mother was killed during that day. It has been three years since our village was defeated. I am the only one, with Annie, that still have the Legacy Clan's blood left in me. I am what separate defeat, from victory, I will not lose again. I feel refurnish my revenge, and kill them all. I will overcome the Nether, and take our dreadful defeat, to a final fight." I slowly, told the young man who sat in the seat in front of me.

His expression changed from a bore some man, to when I started, an intrigued officer.

"Sounds like you've been through Hell." he said, awed.

"I haven't yet, sir." I said firmly. I saluted to him, with my eyes shaken. He grinned, and laughed.

"Don't worry kid, you will be soon." he said, stamping my paper. "Welcome, Trainee, to our military."

The pounding echoed throughout the room. I swallowed, grabbed my paper, and stared. I turned my head, and looked over at Officer Hodges. He nodded and got up, leaving the room. I almost got up and cheered, but I needed to head home. I slammed opened the door and looked down the hallway. The hallway was a good 50 feet, there was no possible way he could get down there in a few seconds. Suddenly, a recognizing feeling below my feet, shook the ground below me. A scream roared echoed, as I instantly knew what was happening.

I grabbed a small iron sword that was within my belt, and charged down the hallway. I needed to run faster, faster. I ran as fast as I could. My legs surged with energy, and without noticing, I had turned almost two corners. I stopped, to take a breath, but I suddenly smelled a foul stench. This was all too familiar. A trail of blood led towards a large closet, as I heard a deep groan within the doors. Taking another breath, with my shoulders, I push the doors open.

Nothing was there. My eyes rush open, as a screech, that I bite my tongue for, pushed me forward.

"You returned. Seems like when you taste blood, you don't let your prey escape." I mumble.

As I hear a rush of wind coming straight at me, I wasn't the same as before. I hop over it's sharp fingernail, landing directly on it, crushing it entirely. I grabbed my two iron daggers, and throw it at it's eyes. One miss, but the other perfectly spikes it's pupil. It roars, crashing into the walls and torches. Beside me, was a heavy iron axe, as I punched the glass window to get it, but instead crack my hands. I yell of pain as I jump on one foot, hopping around, brushing the pain off. I take off my jacket and wrap it around my fists, clenching one more time. This time I shatter it into multiple pieces.

Grabbing it, I don't notice the Taker has gotten up from it's feet, it's eyes reflect my face. My short brown hair, is in a mess, as my face's light skin is appeared with purple bruises. My eyes are a dark scarlet, almost red. My mom said I was special, that I was different. But with doubt, I never trusted her. I should have, because I know damn right I am.

I grin as the Taker takes it's talon and pierces me in the chest. The axe flies out of my hand as I gasp for a breathe. This situation has happened, and the ending won't be the same. I have to protect myself, and my family. As I clench my hands, with all of my concentration, the more blood that pours out of my body, the more my eyes turn whiter, and whiter. With a final gasp of air, I close my eyes tightly. I can smell the Taker's mouth open wide, as the smell of flesh clog my nose.

As I bite my teeth, as hard as I can, the tip of it breaks off. Half of it falls onto the floor, as the air becomes silent. As it slowly falls to the ground, a slight tap awakens my inner strength. My eyes flies open, revealing a purely white pupil, and eye. A sudden burst of strength, rips the Taker's claws out of my chest. The blood stops, as my skin regenerates. I slowly push out my hands towards the beast. As I open my hands, a sudden change of temperature chills me. A pulse of heat moves slowly from my heart to my palms, as my body becomes cold.

The heat moves towards the Taker, as it nearly tears apart its scales entirely, destroying it instantly. It's body turns into ashes, as I move closer towards it. The stench has disappeared, and the air suddenly tenses. Every step I take, my body feels colder, and darker. My eyes are purely white, and my vision is incredibly clear. I feel like I could see the whole world, as I begin to lean over it.

"I will take you monsters over, I'll slay each one of you." I whispered. The ashes slowly breeze away, as I look behind me. Officer Hodges is laying there with his hand over his stomach, he is bleeding heavily. His expression is awed, and frightened, it reminds me of myself three years ago.

With a shaky voice, and mumble, "Herobrine, what are you?​"
