A/n: alright restarting here. Hopefully I can make it better. Please enjoy

Fire..... It was everywhere. As far as the eye could see. The bright orange and yellow flames consuming anything in their way. Trees, bushes, buildings..... people. All fell victim to the raging flames that overtook the village. A boy no older than 7, covered in ash and soot ran through the streets trying to find his friend. They had all gotten separated after a huge explosion that started the whole fire. They had run off to make sure their family was ok, that was 3 hours ago. The boy himself ran to the orphanage where he lived only to find it burnt to ash and not a soul has survived. It wasn't till the building collapsed that it covered him in the black remains.

So now he was running to find his friend who was basically a brother to him. His friends mother treated him like her own, teaching him and caring for minor things such as scraped knees. She cared more than the fool who ran the orphanage. But as he rounded the corner hacking and coughing the sight he saw made his heart drop as if it was made of lead. The small house had collapsed and was burning, all around was charred corpses each unrecognizable except that they were adults.

"It appears we missed one." A voice from behind the boy said. Turning around the child saw a tall slender man in a dark robe with a white mask covering his face while holding a staff. The only evidence they was male was the sound of their voice.

"Knock him out and put him with the rest," a second man said, this one was abit shorter than the other but was more built and was wearing the same outfit. "come on Larry stop fu-" 

Before he could finish a shout interrupted him. Although it was less of a shout and more of a warcry as the boy was so angry and filled with rage and hate as these two were responsible for the destruction around him. So the kid scooped up some ash that still had some glowing embers in it with his foot and flinging the black powder at the two as the embers burned while the robed duo started coughing. Running forward the boy tackled the skinnier criminal at his hip and took him down by surprise. But he didn't stop there as with new found strength he started punching the man's face which was protected by the mask he wore but that soon started cracking.

Seeing the face only made the kid angrier, as he kept pummling into the face of the criminal.

"YOU TAKE MY HOME!! MY FRIEND!!! YOU BURN IT DOWN!! WITH YOUR STUPID FUCKING MUSTACHE!!!" The child roared out as said mustache was now covered in blood. As he kept hitting all the sudden he felt a start stinging pain peirce his side as he was sent flying.

"Kill him! I don't care just kill the little bastard!" Larry gargled past blood. His partner had recovered and was the one to attack seeing as how his staff was glowing.

"Wait." An old but powerful commanding voice spoke out demanding the attention of everyone. The source of the voice was a tall man with a horned helmet on his head and a long white beard hanging from his chin. His torso was covered in a dark red shirt with gauntlets on his arms, a black cape around his shoulders. He had light tan pants with a dark flame pattern near the cuffs of the legs. "Don't kill the boy,"

"Why not Master Hades? We have plenty." Larry said as he wiped his face on his robe sleeve as he glared.

"My reasons are my own. Your master had me come here to make sure it went smoothly this will be part of my payment." The named Hades said as he peered closer at the boy.

"I didn't take you for one of them. But to each their own." The still masked man said.

"NOT LIKE THAT YOU IMBECILE!" Hades shouted. "Just leave before you make my head ache worse."

The two scampered off not wanting to incur the wrath of Hades.

"You killed them! You killed everyone!!" The boy shouted as he found the strength to stand. Hades looked down in amusement.

"I killed no one. They simply left you." Hades stated as he saw the flames curl slightly around the boy. "Either they ran off because they were too weak to fight, captured for the same reasons, or were too weak and simply died. Either way they left you do to weakness in their hearts. But you don't have to suffer such weaknesses, if you come with me you will grow strong. Stronger than you could possibly dream, and you won't have to be alone."

The boy looked at the outstretched hand. He had been abandoned, left to die. His brain clouded with grief and irrational he did the only thing a child in such a position would do. He took the mans hand, accepting the offer of strength and a home.....

-scene shift-

There was a loud banging on a metal door as man with long and wild spikey blonde hair stood up while yawning with a stretch went to awnser it. Throwing the door open piercing scarlet eyes met a monotonous ruby.

"The hell do you want?"

"Master has summoned for all 7 of us. We are approaching Tenrou island." The woman said as she was unfazed by his brash behavior.

"That all?"

"Yes."

"Lead the way."

"Zancrow......get dressed."

"Ahahahaha you're no fun" the blonde man laughed as he re-entered his room.
