Osiris woke after a slumber much longer than he had had for a long time. The bruises from the blaster shots he had taken in the fiasco of a bar fight the night before were all gone. The wounds from his duel with Tannor had already begun the healing process with extraordinary speed. It would seem the stronger he got the fast he healed. Quickly he changed his clothes deciding to wear something a little different for a change. Instead of his usual black he garbed himself in a white silken cloth that the sales woman said would never stain and would outlast his usual cloth choice. He decide today would be good as any to put that claim to the test. Picking up his cloak he inspected the several burn holes caused by the previous days fighting. Two large rips marked an arm and side of the cloak. Throughout the chest and tail of the cloak was covered in small holes. Blood stains splotched the arms, sides, and a little on the chest. Overall it looked beat to hell. Osiris lifted a hand to his head and felt the short black horn growing there.

This thing is going to fall apart any moment and would most likely just get in the way. Guess I am going without a cloak today, probably not healthy to feel a need to constantly cover up my horns anyway. Will have to go to the market and find some new ones. In the mean time I will just have to deal with it.

Walking briskly he exited his quarters and walked down the hallway towards the main hall. The hour was later than he had initially realized. Several people were already sitting down for their mid day meal. Odd that no one woke him up. Scanning through the he noticed a group of teenagers clustered around Helana and Kristy. No doubt they were trying to pick her brain for every tiny detail it could possibly hold. Deciding that the situation did not involve him he walked away towards the kitchen area. He turned down the prepared meal opting instead for a simple bowl filled with roots, nuts, and dried fruits. As he stepped back out into the main hall the chatting suddenly stopped. Looking up from his bowl of food he noticed one of the kitchen helpers bending down next to a table of people.

Everyone was staring at him with surprise on their faces. Not only was he without out a cloak, but he wore shimmering white cloth to boot. With no mirror Osiris had not conceived of how different he truly looked. Kristy chimed in from the back, “Well, you look less depressing!” The whole room burst into laughter. Osiris just shrugged his shoulders and nodded his head a bit. There was no strong urge for him to stay and eat with the others. He needed to make up for time lost sleeping. The training grounds were where he needed to be.

The group of teenagers came running up to him as he was exiting the man hall. Really it was only Kristy and Helana looking for him, but it would seem the others had taken to following the new arrival. “Hey, I was just joking you don’t have to leave. I didn’t mean to offend you. You just look so different.”

“She is right Osiris. You look good. By the way the guard captain needs to talk to you about something.” The whole time Halana spoke she never made eye contact. Better than not being able to speak at all Osiris guessed. He ignored several boys whispering among themselves as the two girls talked to him.

“Okay, he should be on his look out shift around now. I’ll see what’s up before I leave to the training grounds. Thanks.” Turning he walked away still eating. Somehow he already felt stronger from his earlier fighting even though he hadn’t even come close to healing all the way. A certain level of excitement filled him which he hadn’t felt for a long time. He finally got to but his skills to the real test, and had won. It reminded him why he trained. His victories were the Saoirse’s victories and that made them all the greater. His sense of purpose had been renewed. Pausing in thought for a minute and analyzing deeper brought a darker perspective. Maybe the accumulating anger had now been given direction. Admitting the body count Osiris had a procured over the last two years or so had brought a sense of relief. Was it possible though that a side of him took great pride in that number as an achievement? Could that side now be masquerading his pent up animosity as a boost to his determination? It certainly felt that way.

The group of teenagers decided to get a head start to the training grounds while Osiris went to talk to the guard captain. Climbing the winding path higher up Iron Mountain he eventually came to the guard post. “Hey, captain. I was told you had something I needed to hear.”

“I do indeed. It would seem Henex has a new job for you. His daughter recognized some of our people in the city earlier today and asked that they send you word. She didn’t tell us what the job was; only that it was important. I guess you are supposed to go to their shipping hub just north of the city. I think that’s about it.”

Osiris took a moment to consider the situation, “Okay, well if she says it is important I better get over there soon. Hey could you do me a favor and send one of your men over to my training grounds to tell everyone there I had to leave. I told them I would send word if I couldn’t come.”

“Of course, that should be no problem at all. Will you be gone over night?

“I think it would be safe to assume so with how late in the day it already is. Take care of this bowl for me please.” With that Osiris took off sprinting and leaped from the cliff pushing himself out from the mountain side. He dropped a good three hundred feet before slamming feet first into the hard rock below. The ground broke beneath his impact as he dropped slightly into a crouching position. Osiris began bounding forward covering great distance with every jump.

I wish I could fly already. It would make trips like these so much easier. Plus I have a feeling with as easy as Zorn and Tannor made it seem, there will be others like them. If I am isolated on the ground every time I get into a fight it won’t be long before I get killed. That’s not the kind of disadvantage I can just ignore. There is no other choice. One way or another I have to find a master to train me. There is no other option. Namek is supposed to have a master there with unique abilities and I guess I already need to go there. What do I do about everyone else though? Can’t very well leave them all here. Will just have to focus on the task at hand for now.

Osiris arrived at a space riddled with round landing pads, but there was an absence of any actual ships. Scattered around were the smoldering remains of various crates and other supplies. Several of the building around the area had been burned to the ground as well.

Looks like a damn battle field around here.

As he kept walking he came across a rather unusual sight. On top of at all hanger building was a group of people. Most of them were armed and looking around like they were about to be attacked. Among their numbers was Kenel. Jogging over to the building he called up to them, “Hey what are you doing up there? What is going on around this place?”

“Osiris watch out! Those things from the north showed up and started attacking us! They are in the warehouse under us! These ones are stronger though Osiris and there are more of them!”

The sound of splintering wood startled Osiris. A hound with short black fur, a mane of living fire, and glowing orange eyes was flying at him. Diving out of the way he rolled into a crouching position. Two more came stalking out of the shattered doorway. The sound of a running animal came from his right. Four more beasts came charging out of an alleyway. Each and every one of them without exception was huge. The beasts’ shoulders came up to Osiris’ stomach and each must have weighed at least two-hundred pounds. He turned and ran from the building leading the creatures away. Hopefully it would be enough time for those stuck on the roof to get down and find their way back to a safer location.

This is ridicules! I almost got myself killed the last time I dealt with these things. Now there are four more of them and they are bigger than me! Shit, I need to figure out where I am going.

Focusing on the maps he had memorized Osiris poured on more speed. The pack of nightmarish animals was at his heels. There were narrow canyons nearby he may be able to help remedy his disadvantage. Suddenly a burst of fire came shooting towards his back. “What the hell!?” Osiris ducted behind a boulder barely escaping being burned. There was something more to these monsters then it first seemed. Limiting himself to a small enclosed area may not be the best idea, but it was still his only chance.

Reaching the entrance to the canyon Osiris leapt into the air. As his feet came into contact with one rock wall, he bounced forward and across to the other side. By doing this he kept far enough off the ground to avoid his procurers. Charging up his arm for a Blast Punch Osiris bided his time until the canyon started to narrow more. When the time was right he smashed into the wall full forced. Debris rained down on the pack burring one of the beasts and splitting the group in half with a pile of huge boulders between them.

Dropping down to the ground Osiris engaged the three still chasing him. Rushing to meet the lead hound he forgot that these were no ordinary creatures. A huge burst of fire tore from the maw of the nearest beast. Bringing his knees and elbows together he created a shield in front of his body. The blast pushed him back and burned through his pants and sleeves.

So much for a more enduring fabric. Good thing my skin is use to this kind of heat.

Sliding back a ways as his feet touched back to the ground he noticed that the other two hounds were trying to flank him on either side. Sprinting to his left he caught one by surprise kneeing it up against the so hard the rock gave way and buried the creature. Another came diving at his back. Dropping to his stomach he twisted to the left bringing his right leg into a cross body kick. The blow caught the hound in its rips sending it sprawling to the ground. Before he could get up, the last one jumped on him snapping its jaws. Osiris barely caught it by the throat and threw it off of him to the side.

Hoping back to his feet he ran towards the other wall with the hound only a few feet behind him. He ran up the wall using it to do a back flip coming back down stomping the beast’s spine into the earth. Continuing the motion he flipped backwards several more times until he came to the middle of the canyon. A great deal of smoke caught his eye. The hound under the pile erupted in flames pushing the stones off its body. Each of them burst into flames until all three were like their own bon fire.

What’s going on? Are they dead or not?
Looking into the distance he could see smoke pillowing out from under boulders that had piled up after his Blast Punch. He could also see the other hounds finally make it over the obstacle. There would be no time to wait and see what was going on. Taking a wide stance he began to charge his body with his ki. Purple light emanated from his body and crimson sparks danced across skin.

This is it I am going to finish this right now! I’ve been practicing this for a long time now and it worked against Zorn pretty well. There is no way they will be able to move fast enough to dodge these.

Forcing all of his muscle fibers to twitch at once he disappeared from sight. Reappearing right before the three hounds left Osiris had covered the whole gap in a mere instant. Throwing a huge upper cut the middle hound lifted up off the ground. Grapping it by the neck with both hands he brought it down onto the back of one hound then swung and brought it down on the other. Tossing the body aside Osiris stomped on the creature’s throat to his right and then turned and brought a fist down on the other.

Taking a few steps back Osiris watched as each of the newly fallen hounds burst into wild flames. A howling started to come from each blaze. It was like the flame itself was screaming rather than the actual beasts. The pile of boulders shifted as a ball of fire escaped with the corpse inside of it. Each of the bodies took to the sky converging with each other. A huge explosion knocked Osiris to the ground as the flaming figures met. When he looked up to see what happened there was nothing but the cloudy sky to stare at. Nothing seemed to have actually occurred because of the convergence.

What the hell was that all about? I got a bad feeling that this won’t be over so easily. For now I need to head back to the shipping yard though to find out if they got back to safety.

He took off returning to the others back by the hanger. This time he moved much slower feeling the skin around his stitches start to ache. If he had to do something like that again he would tear all his stitches in his side out.

When he got back to the shipping area there was no one out in the open or on top of the hanger. However, he could hear sounds coming from inside the hanger itself. As he stepped through the doorway he heard someone scream. A blast of energy slammed into the side of his head. Ahhh! What the hell are you doing? Do you people realize how much that freaking hurts? Damn it my ear is bleeding. Would someone explain to me what is going on around here?”

Oh my god, I am so sorry Osiris! You just really startled me!” Kenel was standing with her back to a crate with its lid opened. Packaging and assorted items laid spread out across the floor haphazardly. She noticed him scanning the area, “I was looking for this. The others left like cowards. I told them you would handle the situation, but they didn’t believe me.”

Osiris stared at an odd cube of grey stone with marking etched into every side. For some reason he couldn’t look away from it. “What is that thing? Where did you find it?”

“We really don’t know yet. But, I think it is a relic from the lost ones! Even after sitting in this crate for a few days it is still warm to the touch and it hums sometimes. That’s how I first found it, since then though it hasn’t made a sound.”

“Tell me, did those flaming hounds show up around the time you brought this back here? something wasn’t right about that stone.

Kenel’s eyes widened, “Well yeah, but how could that be related to those things outside?”

“I don’t know. Let me see it.” Kenel handed it him and it immediately began to howl like the hounds had. The etchings started to glow orange like fire. Heat coursed through Osiris’ hand as smoke began to rise off his skin. It felt like the relic was challenging him. With a grunt of effort he pushed ki into his hand and closed his fist around the small cube.

“What are you doing? What is going on Osiris?” kenel was backing away from him with her hands clamped over hear ears. Osiris continued to pour on the power. An aura was starting to form around him and it wasn’t long before it was wiping around like an uncontrolled flame.

The whole building began to shake as Osiris started to scream. His aura grew more and more intense. Objects around the room began to float off the ground. His hand was clutching the cube with enough force to grind granite into dust and still it wasn’t enough. Osiris dropped to his knees and grabbed his wrist trying to force more energy towards the cube. Kenel was screaming something at him, but he couldn’t hear anymore. Nothing in the universe mattered at that moment other than dominating the entity within the cube.

“I won’t lose! Submit! Submit!” Suddenly a huge cracking noise echoed through the room and the heat from the cube faded rapidly. Osiris opened his hand to find the cube boken into several fragments.

“What were you doing?! Great now you broke it! Do you understand how valuable that might have been!? What did you think you were doing?” kenel’s face was flushed red with anger. But Osiris ignored her. He could feel something. Without warning a multicolored fireball shoot of his hand holding the cube fragments. The flame tore a hole through a wall and flew away like a meteor. Osiris ran out the door and watched it head north-west towards the Rage Fire Volcano.

That place has been erupting since I can remember. I always thought it was weird even for Cauldron, but this is something else. Maybe one of those hounds were trapped inside that cube somehow. None of the other could have had such power though. I need to go up there and find out what is going on. If, more of those things show up it could mean trouble for everyone.

“Tell me, do you have anything else like that? It’s important, I think something is going on up by Rage Fire.” Osiris looked down at his hand glad he had bought the Saiyan gauntlets when he had the chance. For the most part they were unaffected by the heat, though he could feel a bruise on the palm of his hand. It was insane to think that something so small was so hard to break.

“No we don’t have anything else like that, that’s why it was so important to me. What do you think is going on up there?’ kenel was looking over his shoulder into his hand. The fragments still left in his hand crumpled into dust. A slight breeze blew the remnants out of his hand. Osiris dropped to his knees suddenly feeling the exhaustion that comes with pouring all of your pour out of your body. His vision blurred as the ground rushed up to meet him; he never even felt his body hit the ground before blacking out.

Where am I? Damn, my body feels so heavy. Must have blacked out, didn’t realize how much energy I had used up. I feel like lead.

Lifting weary hands into the air he inspected his now bare hands. Osiris bolted upright, “What the hell is this!?” Dark black symbols started in the middle of his palm and then spilled down his wrist and spread coving his entire forearm with intricate runes. The markings looked much like the ones he had found on the cube. Osiris ran his left hand over his right arm trying to understand what everything meant.

“I never imagined you to get a tattoo. Then again considering I watched that thing grow on you throughout the night I have a feeling it wasn’t exactly your idea.” Velva was speaking to him from across the room. Osiris finally noticed the other people in the room. Velva, Kenel, Helana, and Kristy were all sitting around the medicine woman’s table. Their attention was now turned on him.

“You kind of look cool with that on your arm Osiris.” Kristy was smiling at him.

Osiris was remembering what had transpired the day before when Kenel chimed in, “You may have broken that artifact, but this is far more interesting. Oh, and I have some zeni from my father. The job we called you out for was dealing with those hounds. That pack has been hanging around our shipping site for about a week now. Now that you got rid of them we can get business moving smoothly again now that we don’t have to deal with the public shipping docks anymore.” Her voice got much lower, “Plus, we owed it to the families of a few of our employees to deal with those things. Three dock handlers died the first day we got attacked.”

“So, what are you going to do now? It’s getting pretty late in the day already.” Helana was looking at him worriedly.

Osiris thought for a long moment, “I guess I will just rest for the rest of today and head out to Rage Fire tomorrow. Hey, how exactly did I get back her anyway? I assume you brought me back Kenel, but I figured they would have you tied you up. Bringing me back unconscious probably didn’t earn you a lot of trust.”

“No it didn’t and for a while she was tied up. It wasn’t until after I learned how you got here that I went down and made them let her go. Well, not exactly. She still isn’t allowed to leave until you give the okay. So, for now she is confined to my room under my supervision.”

Osiris was still staring at his arm.

It is nowhere near the same feeling as that thing that invaded my mind, and body for that matter. Feels more like I have been marked for something, just wish I knew what. Kind of makes my blood feel warmer though and there is a tugging in the corner of my mind. This could get interesting.

“Kenel can leave anytime she wants as long as she has an escort to make sure no one sees. Also, Helana can you go talk to the guard captain and make sure that he sends some scouts to the city to see if anyone caught wind of us? I will be going up to Rage Fire soon to investigate things.

“While you’re up there I have a little job for you. It seems several of people in city have started to get a strange illness. Crystal ash is said to have incredibly strong medicinal properties. It is suppose to come from the Rage Fire Volcanoes, but generally no one goes up there. I want you to bring some back in case the sickness comes here. Okay?”

Yeah, should be no problem. But like I said it will wait until tomorrow. Right now I’m going to head back to my quarters.” Osiris stood and walked slowly back to his room where he dropped down in front of his table. Mixing some tea leaves into a cup of water he held it between his hands. Using his ki he heated up the water until steam poured off of it. While he did this he noticed the black markings shimmer crimson and purple. It was like the symbols danced across his skin twisting and flickering like flame. Something about it reminded him of the hounds’ manes. . . . . .
