Artificial

Chapter 7

April the 1st, I finally dealt with the missing person's report and was questioned by the police,
I told them why I left and everything, and my grandmother was taken to jail for emotional abuse and some physical abuse that happend a long time ago.
I felt a weight being lifted off my shoulders but I didn't want anything to do with the house,
even if it was my inheritance.

Fast forward to May the first, the electricity went out, my tv making that noise that sounds like rain and static.
I didn't really belive that eating chocolate controls our power so I wanted to hold off and see if it works and when I popped a piece of chocolate ball in my mouth and ate it,
I felt a sudden grasp of this power. The tv and power fixes itself.

"Holy crap.......... it actually works."

(I don't have a reason to lie to you Seth,
we are now one being,
however that being said I will be closely monitoring you to avoid another Jackel incident. If you so much as step out of line, I will cut off the power supply you use to make runes with.)

I have no intention of turning into Jackel, I crash on my office chair and sigh, explaining my money to my aunt and uncle was interesting to say the least,
I just told them I bought the parts and tools then brought over my sheath grapple hook then told them I mass produced them and sold them on Ebay and Amazon.
They were surprised to say the least, anyway so loose ends tied up I told them I saved enough money to buy my own house and even though it was a lie,
there was some truth.

I'm currently using my shop as my house. April 15th,
Monster just wasn't cutting it anymore, Drawnco knew it and so did I,
we were out of options,
energy drinks make for a great substitute but it can only get you so far before the cravings hit.
I turn on the radio and sit comfortably in my chair,
if and when I eat another person, they must either be criminals or suicide victims, I refuse to eat a innocent person,
I refuse!

I could feel my cravings getting worse by the hour, so much so that Drawnco was flipping out.

(I hunger! I starve! I crave human flesh! Come on Sethy boy if we leave now we can get the nearest victim!)

I had to multitask listening to the radio and tune out Drawnco as much as possible. "All units we have another super human on the loose near Greg street, I repeat superhuman near Greg street."

Sounds like I got a hit, I tune into the news on my phone and drive to the designated location. It was messy to say the least, more dead cops, some lunatic with powers, I decided to apply what Jackel did and concentrated to make shadow runes on all ten fingers.

Black substance drips from my fingers as I created doppelgangers,
I could apparently control them with my thoughts so I had them beat the crap out of the lunatic,
he killed a few and when my doppelgangers died they would relay information that I could see from their perspective.

Sense they all died I could pinpoint the weakness in his fighting style and within two minutes he was dead,
as I go to eat the corps I start gagging, the other corpses smelled like a five star meal the the super powerd guy,
his didn't.

(Another Artificial Demon, don't eat it. Eat his victims, they are dead now so you don't have to worry about wether they were innocent now.)

I go the nearest corpse  and I could feel the same crave as Drawnco.

(Eat it, eat it, eat it, EAT IT!)

I just couldn't go through with it and back away.

(If you don't eat soon you will give into our demonic instincts. If that happens you won't be able to control yourself and anything that moves will be your food.)
