Chapter 1: Mystery
A slumped pale figure, lurched over on Cobblestone debris twitched with life with a loud groan The pale figure, slowly looked up its eyes mixed with confusion. Pushing himself to his feet The first thing he noticed, was the night sky had three moons."Just where the hell am I?"
Max Lawrence, spoke his skull ringing with a slight prickling sensation that seemed to knaw at his senses the more he looked up at the moons, looking away Max for simple terms didn't know how he ended up here, The last thing he could remember was nothing at all?
His face scrunched, digging through his memories as he came out blank the only thing he seemed to know was his name, Max Lawrence he was max and that's all.
With a sigh max was unusual calm strangely so, looking around to the church ruins that he woke up to It was emptied, Looted with cabinet thrown to the ground and mirrors smashed Max, spotted Straight ahead was a large wooden door.
Walking towards the door Max, noticed a painting ripped and shredded yet a bloodied sigil Was sprawled over it circular in shape, with thorns protruding from it And in the center was an errie Eye.
Pushing the doors opened it creaked and groaned, as the the moonlight illuminated the ruins.
Max stepped forward, seeing that outside the ruins he found himself in was surrounded in forestation with massive trees and greenery.
Max mind suddenly knawed again, wincing max pressed his palm against his head trying to push the pain away yet he was helpless.
After suffering from the relentless pangs A low Growl brought him out of his senses, looking ahead a distance away a dark giant wolf with half its face rotten to the bone glared at max. while ontop of it sat A pale figure triple the size of max, holding a giant cleaver that rested on its shoulder, its head twitched intensely Covered in a metal bucket with slits as it pointed at max.
"Shit." Max said instinctively, as the giant wolf riding Figure rushed towards max, running with all his strength Max ran like hell through the forest with that crazed figure hot on his tail, jumping over a log max mind Knawed again violently as he toppled down hard.
Gritting his teeth, the pain lashed against his skull moving quickly to the side, the giant wolf's teeth dug in the spot that he was in while a cleaver hacked down on him.
Muttering curses max, rolled to the side just barely dodging a fatal blow he sprang up."listen I don't know what you want, but I ain't got anything."They circled around each other, max knew if he where to turn around he would be done for because no matter how fast he was on his feet he would never out run a wolf.
The pale rider, didn't respond to maxs words Lunging instead in response max dived to the side, picking up a rock he launched it to the wolf head Impacting it on its bone side, yelping in pain it lashed its head to the side.
'That seemed to work!'max thought but as he looked around for another rock, The pale rider jumped off the wolf and landed infront of max.
Heaving it cleaver high in the air it slashed down with all its might, max eyes widened as the sharp edges neared his face.
'I'm dead…' his breath slowed, the knawing sensation in his mind Grew as the edges of the cleaver reflected the moons light.
Boom!
In a blast of golden light shaped into perfectly weaved double helixes, pushed back the pale ride crashing him into his wolf.
Max eyes where blinded by the sudden light, as it slowly faded into smaller helixes before vanishing, blinking rapidly the first thing max saw was a skull like flaming shape with shades embedded onto a bright red flapping cape.
"Team Dai Gurren, Reputation echos far and wide!" Max looked up, as the sound of a male voice spoke infront of him, he could see the back of their head with short blue hair, They said loudly.
"It's badass leader, a man of spirit! A paragon of total masculinity! There talking about me! Kamina!" His cape flashed harder with the sudden wind, as he looked back at max His blazing red shades reflected the confusion on maxs face.
"Stand Proud for having lasted this long Friend! but the great Kamina is here and he never runs from a fight!"max stunned from the sudden appearance of Kamina, dumbly nodded as he pushed himself to his feet for the second time today.
Loud growls stole both their attention, as the pale rider sat ontop of his wolf again, clearly still injured from the rock that was lodged into its head the wolf bloodthirsty glare periced through max as he stepped back out of instinct, only for a hand to grip his shoulder.
"Never retreat! Never surrender! Never look back! Fight head on With your head held high friend!"kamina said to max.
"I like your confidence but-"max was cut off before he could say anything, Kamina cape flashed with the wind as he blazing approached the pale rider, with a long sword in his hand that max didn't notice before he pointed it at the pale rider.
"Listen you Son of a bitch! Listen well if you think you can hurt a member of team Dai Gurren, under my watch think again!"max couldn't help but think this guy was crazy, as The wolf snarled angry at his words, the pale rider spoke in an inexplicable language that it didn't speak when it attacked max.
'So it could talk all this time.'max thought while reaching for a sharp rock, next to his foot.
Kamina poked his ear as he shook his head."No dice." Within a second Kamina swang his sword, thud!
The wolf's head rolled, towards the feet of maxs as it body slammed to ground, where an enraged Pale figure Roared.
