The wide-open space, once an abandoned industrial complex, was made to become one of the most interesting musical festivals of the entire Europe, in which thousands of young people could assist to concert of many emerging and promising bands. Now, it became again a scenario of a battlefield. People running and violently rushing as fast as they could, a completely chaotic situation out of control for the simple guards and the police officers that were there to prevent the worst in case of emergency. The emergency happened, and they had a hard time dealing with the chaos. Near to the stage, a dark figure was surrounded by teenagers, many police officers lying in the ground being taken away by the rescuers that just arrived to the scene. “What in God’s name happened?”, they asked to one of the few still conscious policemen. “It was… one of them. Of those monsters…” A person covered in dark aura resembling a huge spider stood menacingly, waiting for the next move of one of the students of Heisen, that were ready to engage a fight they weren’t sure they could handle…

A few hours before…

Erik, Ste, Sam, Richard, David an Gabriel went all together to one of the most awaited music festivals of the whole Europe, the ‘Warring Music Festival’, in which popular indie rock bands of many genres came from all over the world to this big event in the suburbs of Berlin. The zone was, before the war, an industrial center in the west area of the city. From the ruins of it, it was built the new structure, which was basically the same besides getting rid of rubble and dangerous remains. Young people from around the world gathered during the whole day, listening to many artists and looking at many of the spectacular shows that were also held there. The students of Heisen walked around the place without problems, since not that many people knew their faces, even if the “students of Heisen” were indeed well known around the world. Their enjoyment started since early in the morning and lasted until that night, when the most famous groups were about to start their performance. Gathered in the middle of the crowded public, like everyone else, they rose their voices to cheer up the first band, the ‘Letzte Revolution’. The band, composed by two guitarists, a bassist, a drummer and a charming female vocalist, opened the main event of the festival for that night. Everyone was excited, jumping and dancing to the melody of the young metal band. Everything was going fine, just like everyone expected. Until there was a loud scream. A scream so strong that even the performers were able to hear, despite the loud music they were playing. After the scream, there was the noise of an explosion in the first rows near to the stage. Pitch-black smoke rose from the center of the explosion. The pressure of the explosion pushed many people, which landed many meters away over other people. Erik and the others were far enough to avoid being thrown away, but close enough to catch the people pushed away. Everything stopped after the explosion: both performers and audience were speechless and paralyzed, looking with anxiety at the rising dark smoke. Without thinking twice, Erik rushed to the origin of the smoke, leaving his friends behind, which were still trying to understand the situation. Meanwhile, many people started to ran away in panic. “What the hell is going on?!”, asked Erik in his mind as he dodged the people standing on running in the opposite direction. Until he finally met face to face to the cause of all that confusion. A person, dressed in black clothes and surrounded by a sinister dark aura, was standing with their eyes fixed to the stage. Fixed on the girl with red long hair, which was singing until few moments ago. “It’s time to take my revenge…” Erik heard those words coming from the person covered in darkness, and by the tone of voice, he knew he had in front of him a vengeful girl.

- Hey, calm down! – Erik shout to the girl – I don’t know what’s your problem, but don’t you think this is too much?!

- Get out of the way! – the girl shouted.

The girl rose her hand as if she wanted to slap Erik and, following her hand, the dark aura followed it as well, taking the form of a giant menacing hand. She slapped the air and, at the same time, the hand shaped aura stretched and moved fast towards Erik. He realized the attack only after he received the hit, being thrown away and rolling many meters from where he was standing. The girl was about to do the same gesture, when a light ball at high speed hit her from her right, making her lose her balance. She turned and, among those people running away, four boys approaching the place.

- Erik! – shouted Sam after throw a ball of light against the girl – Are you ok?!

- I’m going for Erik! Sam! You cover my back! – said Ste, running towards Erik.

- Don’t get in my way!!

The girl shouted again and, this time, she turned to the female singer, which was still there on the stage, paralyzed in terror. Without waiting another second, the girl covered in darkness stretched her dark arm towards the singer. Ste, Sam, David and Richard, standing near to the aggressor, couldn’t prevent the move, neither could do nothing to stop her. Everyone thought it was the end for the girl, but it wasn’t. At the last moment, another figured covered in darkness jumped before the singer stopping the dark arm of reaching its target. The dark arm dissolved into the air, while from the dark aura of the angry girl grew another limb. “Don’t worry, you’re hero has arrived!”, said the boy covered in a dark aura to the female singer, still petrified by the series of events. “It’s better if you go away right now, though. It’s clear you’re her target! Quickly, run!” That last shout from the boy helped the girl to recover her senses. She turned and ran away from the scene, disappearing behind the stage curtains.

- Nice one, Gabriel! – shouted David to his friend from below the stage.

- Ha! Easy work for the ‘Dark Monkey’, which is I! – said Gabriel, which aura indeed resembled that of a monkey with a long tail.

- Get down here, you primate! We need to take under control this girl as fast as possible! – shouted Ste, while helping Erik to stand up again. Then, he talk to Erik – Man, you should just stop jumping to action like that! One of this days you’re gonna get killed!

- Hehe, you’re right. Sorry, my bad! – simply answered Erik with his usual smile.
