Ruin Hunter: Chapter one: Meeting with sand
As the young boy, with the name of Shiki, walked though the most hot ruin he had been to. Shiki could have gone back, gone back to his boring life, but h never ever wanted to go back until he had gone to those ruins that God had spoken of. Whipping the burning hot face of his, and sipping the last bit of water he had left in his pink bottle, Shiki fell, defeated on the ground. He wasn't as far as he had thought he was, even though he thought he had walked for ages, Shiki had gone a mile away from his home, or that was what his brown and white Nochi meter said. But Shiki stopped trusting his items that he had made when he was a boy, even if they were working.

Standing up from his sandy spot, stood Shiki once again, but this time he told himself that he wasn't going to fall this time. Shiki began to walk off in the dissent, ready for any challenges, he didn't leave his home for just some dried up ruin's. Though he knew he would find some avenger in the ruin's anyways, with the stories he keeps hearing. Glancing around for any trouble, but just a sigh fell out of Shiki's mouth, nothing more then sand, big mountain's of it. And some animal's that were about to die, from hunger. It didn't make Shiki scared at all, God did say he was going to see this, and once that was in Shiki's mind, it wasn't going to get out anytime soon. Shiki trusts God, more then the other cursed boy. Without a leap of thought, Shiki jumped down from his tiny rock, the rock was red, stained with blood. Shiki landed carefully and put his hand in his bag, making the bag move, as his hand moved in it as well. The tiny tan bag almost dropped as Shiki found what he was looking for, Shiki quickly pulled it out and placed it on the blood stained rock. It appeared to be a map, a map around Heta country. Which was small, indeed. But the map had everything you needed to know. And Shiki needed to know something, he needed to know where the next village was, Shiki had spit coming down his mouth at the thought of water. And maybe some food as well. With a little point at the next town in the map, Shiki grinned slightly, but it hurt his mouth as he did.

Closing the map, and putting it slowly in the bag, being careful not to rip the map, he got it in and started to run to the north. North was where it would be cooler, and the next town, of course. Shiki didn't stop talking about how juicy the meat was going to taste when he pays it, and how cool the cola was going to melt away his sweat, without sand in his feet when he comes and sits down. Smiling Shiki stopped at the said of, "Waa!" Coming closer and closer towards him. Glancing behind him, Shiki saw a man, maybe about twenty two, come ridding by out of control, not able to tell his dashing horse to slow down. Shaking, Shiki gracefully ran behind a orange rock, almost ten feet tall, with marks of people on it. Though Shiki hadn't notice that the horse was going to the rock, but luckily, Shiki was shriving behind it, as the house stopped and the man leaped off of it. The man bowed to Shiki, which Shiki thought that the man hadn't noticed his skinnier body then the his. Shiki came out from his hiding spot, as the man put of the most warming smile. "I'm Nagi Tatsuga, sorry if I had scared you with Kite. He runs without me even knowing." This so called Nagi led out his hand as he tilted his head to the left. "What's your name?"
Shiki stood aback a minute, he hardly knew the guy, and he asked Shiki his name? Shiki was still almost more then a kid, but his thoughts were the one's his Mother had gave him; Shiki needed the know Nagi more, but telling your name was fine. Shiki puffed out his cheeks and gave Nagi his hand. Shiki wasn't so sure about trusting this guy, but if that was what Mother had told him, he had to obey. Slightly smiling, still frowning in the inside Shiki told the man his name.
"Shiki Rose, is my name, Good sir!" Also, his Mother told him to call anybody he didn't know, "Good sir." To show them that you like to be around them and that you think their nice. Though, Shiki didn't think this person was nice at all, he scared Shiki, and all he got was a sorry? But Shiki could live with it, as long as the person didn't keep him side tracked miss his big chance to eat. Nagi handed an bottle, a pink bottle at that. It was Shiki's, so without a thought, Shiki swapped it from Nagi's hands. But all Nagi did was smile, smile and stop talking.
"I filled it up with water, I got it from my five water bottles...." Nagi paused as he saw that Shiki had drunk it all already. "You must be glad I came by, Shiki might have died out here. Are you alright?" Nagi asked as he forced Shiki to let go of the bottle so that he could pour more into it, he finally got it out of Shiki's hands and filled it up once more. Shiki then nodded, he wasn't one for a lot of words, but he did talk sometimes, and not short sentences, too. Nagi laughed and hoped back onto his horse and waved goodbye, waving back Shiki yelled after him.
"If you're going to Ookawa town, I'll meet up with you again, right!? If you are, see ya there!" Again, Shiki ran as fast to the naked eye to Ookawa town. For that most tasty dish. Even so, Shiki guessed there was going to be another thing to distract him. Just to make sure, Shiki glanced around, he was sure that he was going to see a blond on a turtle next, but it seemed that the hot ruins made him dizzy. Though, he went on, telling God to keep a Angel watching him like normal. Shiki really thought that he could feel something eying him. But it could have been his dead warned out Grandma, she was an Angel as well.
