In the dark regions there were three races who had divided the regions amongst to call it their home. The vampires who took over northern plains and mountains,the werewolves who took over most of the forests in the dark regions. And lastly the witches who were rumored to be living in some undiscovered parts of the dark regions for little was known about them. Thus the vampire domain, the beast domain and the uncharted grounds of the dark regions.

On the snowy peaks of a mountain three figures moved slowly, knees deep in snow as they tried to cross over the northern mountains to reach the northern plains. "So your saying that we have to cross the mountains before we can get to the northern plains right?", Gray said after the explan- nation about the dark regions. "Yeah that's right. We have to cross over to the northern plains but it will take some weeks and with our bodies I'm sure we can handle this cold", Zil said as he turned to look at Gray. "But you should now, that there are monsters lurking in every corner of the dark regions so we need to be careful",he said with a grave look on his face.
Stoping in his tracks, Zil turned to Gray as he reached for something in his fur coat . "Gray I know it wasn't long before you and your sister turned into vampires, so you guys might not be able to take care of the monsters in these mountains",he said as he removed a short sword from his coat.But when I tell you to fight, you fight, and when I tell you to run, you take your sister and run like your life depends on it because it does", he said as he placed the sword in Gray's hand. Looking at the blade, Gray remembered the bandits he killed, how he wasn't fazed by the sight of blood and how he actually felt pleasure as he killed. It all made him sick, but as he looked at his sister he understood why he must kill and run away if the need arises. "Yeah I understand, no misunderstandings here I assure you ", Gray said with a smirk.
" Glad you understand brother", Zil said as they fist bumped.

As they journeyed to the vampire domain it took them two weeks to climb over the northern mountains. Their provisions became low and they were almost out of fire wood. "Hey Gray do we have any meat left", Zil said as they say on the ground in the cave. "What meat are you talking about you , we ate the last one yesterday" Gray said with an annoyed look. We're also low on blood and I don't think it will last us three days", Marie said shaking a water sack filled with blood.
Sighing Zilders got up as he walked towards the entrance of the cave. "I'm gonna take first watch, why don't you guys rest up fir-", he said but before he could finish a sent pierced his nose as he coughed up blood. "What the hell", Zil said as he looked at the blood in his hand. Sniffing the air again a horrified expression appeared on his face as he transformed, and immediately grabbed Marie and Gray running out of the cave at high speed. " Oh fuck, we're fucking dead !".
"How did we run into a monster of that class".
Not knowing what was going on, Gray turned to Zil with as a vain appeared on his head. "What the fuck is your problem Zil, you could have warned us" Gray said as Zil placed him on his back. "Now's not the time the time to be arguing with him brother. There's something behind us" Marie said pointing to the place they once were as her face darkened. "What are you talking about, I don't see any-". As the wind changed direction a smell so revolting pierced his nose, stopping him from finishing his sentence. Covering his nose with a pained expression, Gray looked behind him and suddenly his vision increase rapidly, zooming towards the entrance of the cave that was miles away from behind. As he looked at the entrance of the cave, a black mass of fog started following them from afar with incredible speed. And inside the black fog , he could see a giant figure inside it. It had four arms and three heads, and on each head there was one white milky eye.
The monster looked horrifying and repulsive with black blood from each mouth."What in the absolute fuck is that", Gray said horrified, as the giant started to run. "That's a corrupted being, a remnant of the holy war. I've heard some still lurk around the world but to meet one here, what type of bad luck do we freaking have",Zil said as he reached a canyon.
Speeding up, Zil tried to loose the giant in the canyon. But as he looked ahead his face darkened at the sight in front of them. All over the canyon, humanoid creatures with white milky eyes stared down at them with killing intent. "Damn we are trapped, what are we going to do",Zil said as the creatures moved towards them . Looking behind him Gray knew they had only one option and it wasn't a good one. "Hey Zil I have an idea , wanna hear it",said Gray. "Sure as long as it doesn't get us killed, so what is it?", Zil said with a hopeless voice.
" Let's kill the corrupted being", Gray said as his eyes became bright red. "You're joking right, didn't you just hear what I said. That's a corrupted being, a creature that was made for the purpose of destruction . What can we do to hurt it?!".
"Fine, if you want to jump over the cliff be my guest", said Gray. Staring at the dark expanse at the edge of the cliff, Zil sighed placing Marie and Gray down as he turned to look at the corrupted being approaching them. "Fuck, let's do this, but we are gonna need a plan", he said as the giant got closer.
'He's right what can we do in this situation', Gray thought as he looked around. Then all of a sudden a tremor occurred, causing pieces of rock to fall from above. Looking up, Gray noticed spikes protruding from the top of the canyon as the giant got closer to them. Thanking which ever God that caused the tremor Gray started turned to the others." Marie,Zil, I need you guys to lure the puppets to my direction. While you guys are busy I'll stall the corrupted being", he said as he moved swiftly away before they could even object. "What the hell Gray, are you crazy you're gonna die!", Zil shouted as Gray run towards the giant. "Marie what should we do?",he asked as he turned to look at Marie staring at where her brother used to be. "Trust my brother, that is what we're going to do". Marie said as she approached the horde of puppets. Shaking his head Zil slowly transformed into a werewolf. "I swear both siblings are freaking out of their minds", he said running towards the horde as he grabbed Marie and placed her on his back. All the while a figure of a tall man in dark robes was standing above, looking at the scene below him with a smile on his face. "Two hybrids and a werewolf with the potential of becoming an alpha. What an interesting party"the man said as he disappeared in a red crimson smoke
