Chapter 0: Arrival X at X Alba

Dykstra let out a condescending snicker, he couldn't help himself.

"That's more like it. Now, let's see here..." he said outloud, touching his knuckle to his chin as if he were thinking about what to give them as their task. "Alright, since there's three of you..." he said, pointing at each member of the group in front of him.

"Ah yes," he began, "how about.. three items! Yes, perfect. Three items should be fine. I'll need the three of you to retrieve three items for me. And just to be sure you won't buy them, you'll be handing over your Jenni. Yes, all three of you."

"Don't look at me like that!" he said to the man with a laugh. "I'm a licensed Hunter myself, no need for me to steal whatever measly pocket change you have between the three of you." Dykstra said, pulling out his Hunter License and flashing it to them, making sure to hold it at Ghoul's eye level so he could verify its authenticity.

The three handed over their money, and Dykstra nodded. "Okay, so I'll need the lot of you to bring me three items. Something blue, something borrowed... and something beginning with the letter B!" he said, a grin stretching across his face. "Retrieve those three items by any means necessary. You will be monitored, and we will be grading you based on the qualities that Hunters use. And remember, you're only breaking the law if you get caught!" *he said, attempting to conceal a childish yet somewhat sinister laugh.

"I'll meet back up with the three of you at the fountain in the middle of town." Dykstra said, using his speed to quickly vanish out of sight.

"WE'LL BE WATCHING!" echoed his voice from the shadows.
