There shouldn’t be anyone else here. It was supposed to be abandoned, a ruined building whose remains stood like a phantom of its former self. The Chimera lab had been torn to shreds from the Dark Dragon’s awakening, and unlike most other places, it hadn’t come back or been rebuilt.
‘Good’ Claus had thought bitterly when he overheard people speaking of it. It was a horrible place that made the boy’s stomach twist into knots. He’d been one of that horrid place’s ‘successes’. He’d been a child that the lab had warped into a weapon. It and all of its research could burn in hell for all he cared.
Thankfully it had seemed as though no one cared for it anymore. No one attempted to go in and dig through the rubble for information or tools or anything. And that was the way it was supposed to be...
Today, as Claus chased after a muttshroom that had stolen his book, he was surprised to find that there actually was someone standing near the remains of the chimera lab...The dog-like chimera wagged its tail happily in the forest clearing, ready to take off again in its tag-like game with Claus. However, Claus didn’t focus on the chimera...instead he stared at the boy that was standing there. A boy with blond hair, a bowl cut, glasses...He’d...seen someone like that before...He’d...but where? Where..?
“Who are you? What are you doing here?”
Claus finally spoke up, making his presence known.
