Legends. Stories scattered through time. Mankind has grown quite fond of recounting the exploits of heroes and villains, forgetting so easily that we are remnants, byproducts, of a forgotten past. Man, born from dust, was strong, wise, and resourceful, but he was born into an unforgiving world. An inevitable darkness — creatures of destruction — the creatures of Grimm - set their sights on man and all of his creations. These forces clashed, and it seemed the darkness was intent on returning man's brief existence to the void.

However, even the smallest spark of hope is enough to ignite change, and in time, man's passion, resourcefulness, and ingenuity led them to the tools that would help even the odds. This power was appropriately named "Dust". Nature's wrath in hand, man lit their way through the darkness, and in the shadow's absence came strength, civilization, and most importantly, life. But even the most brilliant lights eventually flicker and die. And when they are gone... darkness will return.

?????: So you may prepare your guardians, build your monuments to a so-called "free world", but take heed... there will be no victory in strength.

?????: But perhaps victory is in the simpler things that you've long forgotten. Things that require a smaller, more honest soul.

We enter our tale within a bedroom with barely anything there only a small mattress, a dresser with a Lego Bionicle Tahu collection on top. The room was lit up by a strand of RGBIC strip lights while in the room a voice can be herd as a boy dressed in red with spiky red hair was talking on his scroll with a merchant talking about a job but it seems like it was about something treacherous near by.

????: Alright, where did you last see it? Any clues where it could be at least?

Merchant: (Through call) Well last time I saw it, it was in the forest near vale. It's been scaring off the people that's bringing my inventory and its starting to make me worry that it might...

????: Hey Hey Hey its going to be fine, but the people thats been giving you your stock must have been very moody to attract this Grimm. When did the last attack happen?

Merchant: Two days ago. And some say that it's Hyde is like armor, and it's hard to kill normally. But I hope it's not a hard job for you Kota?

Kota Suko... The local towns mercenary with a sword named Lightcaliber. He's also a powerful person with abilities that reminds people of a Saiyan like those stories from the local manga. But after an accident a very long ago he tries to limit his powers so he wouldn't hurt anyone important. So he takes the job of a mercenary like Guts, Deadpool and Taskmaster a few of his favorite characters. Its thanks from all of his work that the town he lives in respects the young man. but that is only a small part for why he does what he does.

Kota: I'm sure it won't be much for me. I'll reach you when I'm done ok.

Merchant: Thanks for this Kota. I'll see you soon.

Kota: Don't mention it, Its what I do. (Hangs up the call)

As Kota gets ready to head out. He grabs his weapon and puts on his slip on shoes before heading out of his room of where he lives to take care of this bounty.

(Scene change and Timeskip)

Within a forest ahead of any nearby town or village Kota was searching the whole forest for this "armored" grimm. It was way late at night for it was around two o'clock in the morning but hours like this was not new to him, like he seemed to care anyway but clearly it would seem that he's is currently having trouble finding his bounty. He then started to get frustrated for it's taking him too long for this beast to show up.

Kota: (screams frustrated) Come on, Where is this thing! You think for a merchant he could have gave me a photo or something. Well you can't make it easy all of the time can you?
