Sorcerer Hunters: Don't leave me Darling
By
Lane Kramer
Carrot Glace looked around the ruined village and could only shirk his soldiers. There were no girls
around at all and he almost could not bear it. He needed some beautiful face to look at and
unfortunately for him, or fortunately some would say, the only half decent looking face or only human
face at all to look at was the young lady who was glomped on to his shoulder his fellow hunter
Chocolate Misu.
"It looks like were to late to help the people here darling." Chocolate said with a concerned look on her
face and she surveyed the destroyed village. "Yeah there aren't any girls around at all." Carrot spoke
until he realized he said his thought aloud and the next moment felt himself eating dirt after Chocolate hit
him with a hammer that he still couldn't figure out where she got it front. "How can you think of looking
at other girls when we are here on a mission and besides I am here with you."
Carrot slowly got up and uneasily moved around. This Sorcerer had definitely been up to no good. Big
Mama had sent them to the village, he and Chocolate, because it had been alleged that a sorcerer was
using the human from the village to try and improve a immortality serum. It appears he had run out of
test subjects. Carrot wished the other were here with them, but Big Momma had instructed the other
Hunters to investigate another sorcerer who was apparently doing similar experiments in another part of
the continent and they had to split up to deal with both cases. So Carrot was going on one and Tira,
Chocolate, Marron and Gesteau had drawn straws on who would go with Carrot on this case.
Chocolate had won the drawing...although Carrot could have sworn he saw her pull something from out
of her shirt. So they went their separate ways and Carrot had been stuck with the more aggressive of
his two love-life blights. Although he reasoned she hadn't pounded him much on the trip and in this
current predicament he was glad to have her a long. They slowly made there way through the village to
the remains of town square. Chocolate and Carrot were both on guard against any possible attacks.
Just then they heard a laugh and then there was another laugh. Carrot started to feel a little on edge and
started to start looking all around to try and locate the source of the laugh. Chocolate was starting to get
a little annoyed and just wanted the person making the laugh to appear already since she pretty much
guessed who it was. As if reading her mind the source appeared.
The person who responsible for the laugh appeared floating in the air just above the ground. He stood
about just taller than carrot, had long blond hair(looks like a shoujo guy reject), and had a red and blue
eye. "Ah what have we here. Two new individuals to help me with my immortality experiment, how
delightful. But wait, ah yes, you must be the Sorcerer Hunters."
Chocolate and Carrot both exchanged a glance. Carrot was wondering about how could he know who
they were. Their true identities were supposed to be secret. "Oh are you not expecting for me to know
who you are. Please. I have heard about the Sorcerer Hunters punishing some of my fellow sorcerers. I
was quite displeased to hear about what happened to them. Actually one sorcerer survived meeting you
and told me about each of you. Although I was expecting five of you. You match the description of the
one who transformed into a big creature if hit with magic. So I guess I will have to just kill you since you
are too dangerous to allow to live. The girl though I think would make an excellent test subject. Her
natural beauty and tough demeanor should mean she might actually help me succeed."
Carrot didn't understand the last bit of the sorcerer's rant until her turned around. Then he watched
chocolate go into her transformation and into her battle outfit. Her big hat and leather pants definitely got
the hairs on his neck standing on end. He saw the icy look in her face. She was ready to take this
sorcerer out.
"Ah well I guess the game is a foot. Very well hear young fool now you die." The sorcerer's blue eye
started to glow and suddenly around Carrot a ice shards 10 ft tall formed around Carrot trapping him."
Carrot stared around and ran at one of the pillars to try and break through it. He only succeeded in
making himself think he smashed himself.
The sorcerer laughed. "Hm fooled ya didn't I. Actually I need to think of a better way to eliminate you
without magic so that should hold you. I think instead I will capture your girlfriend and experiment on
her. Perhaps I can even arrange to allow you to hear her screams."
"First off she is not my girlfriend and second off I would not be the one to worry."
"Yes, darling is right. Now you are mine." Chocolate spoke forcefully. Then she prepared her incredibly
long whip and charged the sorcerer.
Carrot fell pretty sure about Chocolate would take care of this sorcerer. That was until he heard the
sorcerer scream out in pain and yell "That is it you bitch. Now you will die. Face my full fury." Now
Carrot had heard this before and would not normally flinch cause he was pretty sure Chocolate could
handle herself. But then he felt the explosion and the girlish cry of "Darling help..."
Carrot being the hero or at least in his own mind could not help himself but react and run up to try and
look out from his icy prison. He saw Chocolate lying on the ground and from the way she looked she
has just avoided a fire ball. Her hat was not on her head, it was five feet from where she was lying,
completely burned. The sorcerer was still in the air floating higher then before a red blotch over his
heart.
"Hehe... it appears I will not be able to become immortal, but neither shall you live any longer. You die
with me Sorcerer Hunter." Then his red eye glowed one more time and a fire ball formed in the air and it
blasted into a wall behind Chocolate. The wall started to fall forward. Carrot Glace fought until he fit
through the ice pillars. He yelled "Chocolate watch out!!!" Chocolate could not move. She had only a
look of loss as she looked at Carrot running towards her. "Chocolate!" Chocolate Misu closed her eyes
and waited to for death wishing that she just once managed to get Carrot in bed or more so got him to
tell her that he loved her. The next moment after closing her eyes she felt something hit into her and then
she rolled and heard the wall hit the ground. When she was able to open her eyes she looked around
and realized she was not dead. She felt grateful for a moment and then looked around to see her
surrondings. She saw the sorcerer lying dead on the ground. She smiled until she realized something, she
hadn't seen Carrot anywhere. The next moment she turned to look where the wall had fallen and saw a
hand sticking out from under some rubble.
"Carrot!!!" Chocolate rushed towards where the hand was and with all her remaining strength managed
to toss all the rocks off of Carrots body until she came to his prone form. She turned his body over and
put his upper body on her lap.
"Darling! Wake up darling. Carrot please...open your eyes." Tears came down Chocolates face. Then
slowly Carrot opened his eyes slightly. Chocolate just looked at him speechless.
Carrot wasn't sure what to think he felt himself slipping into darkness. He looked up at Chocolates face
and felt no fear or consternation that she was holding him right now. With all his strength left he lifted his
hand to touch her face. He smiled and said "Uh...I know I never said this much to you...but did I ever
tell you how beautiful you really are..." Chocolate smiled a nervous smile "Don't be ridiculous darling. I
know you always knew that." Her smile faded when Carrot's eyes closed. She shook him again but his
eyes didn't open.
"Darling...Darling.. Carrot..open your eyes. Please don't die on me. I need you. I love you." Carrot
Glace eyes did not open, but from his mouth came only a few words. "I know and I care for you to...I
am sorry." Then Carrot faded completely into darkness.
