Prologue

"Hey Silence?" whispered a female voice in the dark. "When can we attack?"

"As soon as the prisoners escape," a male voice said as he pointed a darkly furred finger at a large cage with odd-looking people inside. "They may get hurt in the fight."

"Oh, but it's so boring up here!" the female voice said impatiently as she slung her arms back.

"We can't risk there safety," snapped Silence. "Besides, we can't let Mewt miss the fun can we? And I thought you liked trees?" Silence looked down from his treetop perch to see at least five men huddled around a fire. The light form the fire revealed some of his face. He had silver-gray hair, maroon eyes and the face of a 17-year-old. BUT only one major difference, he had black and silver fur all over his face. "I hate Hunters!"

"Likewise," the girl agreed.

Silence pulled his head back up. "Where is Mewt?"

"Oh, getting a little impatient are we?" the girl said sarcastically.

"Shut-up," Silence replied with a sharp tone.

Suddenly there was a sound of leaves rustling. Silence and the girl stood up in the tree. With great balance, they stood only on a single branch. With the light of the fire, a small amount of the girl could be seen. She also had fur, only it was a reddish color. You could see that she had blue eyes and was holding a compound bow (very rare in these times). She wore black jeans and a red shirt that was short enough to expose her naval. She also had what seemed to be a tail.

Silence wore only black jeans and had a white shirt on with ripped sleeves. He also had three tails. He held a wakazashi in his hand.

They stayed ever silent. A figure appeared in the tree. With the light from the fire, you could tell he was like the others. He had no fur that could be seen, green eyes, and wore jeans and a shirt over another long-sleeved shirt. He had three tails. "It's me," he said simply.

"Mewt!" the girl said, lowering her bow. "Don't scare us like that!"

"So, are they safe?" Silence asked.

"Yes, the two guards are dead as well," Mewt said.

"Good," Silence said with relief. "Okay Eco, you may have your fun!" As he said this, he pulled out another blade and jumped from the tree.

"Alright!" said Eco as she loosed her arrow. It flew true, straight into a Hunters chest.
