Kaseki was doing an escort mission the day before. Kaseki was assigned to guard a royal caravan, he found it odd that he, a D-Rank mage, was requested by name to protect high profile personnel. He followed the instructions given to him and found himself at an interesting church-like structure. He approached the large victorian-resembling doors to find his employer. It was an interesting cloak individual, much like Kaseki himself, however the employer did not speak.
"Excuse me, are you Mr..." Kaseki looked at the weather beaten paper for the name. "Mr.Born?" The figure did not speak, but rather the answer came deep within the church. "Kaseki, do not speak to him. He is of no concern to you." A strange suited man unveiled himself from the darkness. "Your job is to escort this caravan to its destination. Understand?" said the man. He was in a royal blue suit, and his face resembled that of a vampire, for it was pale and lifeless. Kaseki wondered what these people want him for. Although he was skeptic, he needed the jewels to buy himself a home, his stump simply wasn't enough. "Yes sir." Kaseki bowed and made his way out of the church.
The cloaked man followed Kaseki out of the doors. Outside the sky was black and full of little lights. "Hmph, I could have sword the great star was out moments ago. No matter..." Kaseki looked behind him to find the eerie an staring back at him. Frightened, Kaseki looked away. He felt as if the mission was not what he thought it would be... and perhaps he was right.
A stagecoach rode up in front of Kaseki. He didn't even see it arriving, nor heard it. It was almost like it simply appeared. "You the Mage that will guide my steeds?" said the man on the stagecoach. Kaseki nodded in reply. The man smiled in return."Hop on, we're in for one hell of a ride Plantman. Heheh."
Kaseki walked in the coach after his hooded client. He sat across from him, watching him. He was becoming uneasy, and he started to get nervous. He sat with his hands folded, and his blade, Khaos, beside him. The moment Kaseki tried to say a word, the man stared daggers at Kaseki and he held onto his words. Then they began to move.
Kaseki found himself sitting in an odd place, across from a mysterious man, being taken by another odd man, who he was hired probably by the same eerie suited man. He had no clue where he was going, nor why or how far. He began to try to ask his client. "So... What's your name, or do you just go by Mr.Born? Kaseki refused to look up at the man, he kept his eyes fixed on the window. "I'm Kaseki, I'm a plant." He still looked outdide, watching the number of people dwindle down. "Um... So what am I protecting you from?" He still received no answer. "That's cool, I like surprises I guess... Um..."
In that moment, they stopped. Kaseki gripped his blade. He knew what it was about. He knew why he was there... all he could see was darkness out of that window. The man across from him leaned toward him. Kaseki looked at his aged hand as it reached for his throat. "You aren't a human... You're the-" The door was opened from the outside and the cloaked man threw Kaseki unto the ground outside.
"Now, Kaseki, if you look around, all you see is this barren wasteland. There is no water for you to use. It's time for you to fight... and perish. Heheheh."
Kaseki watched as the man charged him. His entire being let off a large amount of light.
Kaseki held onto Khaos as he began to step away and dodge. "Please, you don't understand... You'll awaken him. Once he takes over... I... I... Not again..."
Kaseki stumbled as he walked up the marble steps of his home. He ran into the door with the energy he had left. The doors opened and he collapsed onto the floor. "I...I... I... I didn't kill him..." Kaseki lay curled on the white marble floor of the guild... but it wasn't so white anymore.
Kaseki was covered in red, and left a trail from where he walked.
"I didn't kill him...I never killed anyone..." his voice was light, almost a whisper. "I haven't killed anyone..."
