When school was over, I grabbed my stuff and left the building and head home. As I was walking back to the house, I heard some sort of scream. I stopped for a bit to think about some things.
If I walk over there, who will it be and what do they want from the victim? Do I have to eat the person hurting the victim and kill them as well? What would happen if I went insane? I haven't fully controlled my sanity yet. -I thought about it until I shook my head.
Fuck it. -I said. I turn around and walk back to the sound of the person screaming. When I made it there, I see a guy and a familiar face. It was Elijah. I thought I framed him and yet, he is still here. I used my ability to went invisible using clock and waited.
"Dude stop, what do you want from me?!"
"Do you NOT see this person?!" -Elijah shouted, as he was carrying two things; his cleaver and a photo of me with my face, revealed.
"Who the hell is that person? I don't know them!"
"She is the person who single handily destroyed down a place I lived and got me arrested. You are a cop, how are you not finding her?!" -He yelled
"It's hard to find her. If we found her, we would have killed or arrested her already."
He paused for a moment, angered was starting to get to him. Before the cop knows it, Elijah grabbed his shirt and started cutting a bit of his chest. Blood was pouring out fast, yet he is still alive. The slash was not that deep, his guts wasn't there yet or his organs was showing.
"Tell me, where is she?" -Elijah said. He was giving him a warning. The cop couldn't speak well as he was slowly losing blood. I can tell I am gonna lose myself quickly.
"I...told you...I..." -The cop said, he couldn't finish his sentence. He finally closed his eyes and passed out.
"Ugh! He is useless! Jayla got REAL lucky there. I will literally kill her the next time I see her!" -He shouted.
As soon as he turned around, my eyes turned bright red and before I know it, I was no longer invisible. He looked at me, still pissed.
"You..." -He said. He immediately ran up to me. I dodged passed his slash just in time.
Well then...I guess cloak is finished for now. Nice to see you again! -I said
"DON'T GIVE ME THAT SWEET TALK! What have you done to the village?!" -He shouted
Oh, that's place? -I said. I wanted to have fun with it. I giggled after.
"You destroyed a whole village of our kind! Getting rid of everybody in your way!" -He said
He still continue to slash and run to me. He did managed to hit me but not to where it actually hurts or cuts deep. It does heal quite fast.
I don't care about our kind. I was going crazy! You like that huh Elijah?! -I said.
"That gives you no excuses." -He said
Alright then, no more sweet talk then. Guess we really have to settle this. -I said. I grabbed my axe and showed it to him. We both run to each other and start trying to hit each other. Sparks are flying and lights was going off. It basically was the battle of two cannibals fighting to the death. Winner gets to eat the other unless the person doesn't feel like it. I did manage to slash his leg and it hurt as hell for him but it was a clean sweep. I didn't want to cut his leg off at the moment. He did dodged it right on time, that's how I gave him a cut on his leg and not his leg getting chopped off. He did managed to make a bigger cut to my chest, this time, i was bleeding fast. I yelled and I look up to see him smile.
"How does it feel huh?!" -Elijah said as he was starting to laugh.
He was laughing so much to where he didn't noticed I was running up to him and punched him. He got send flying backwards and somehow managed to hit a tree. I thought it was over until he dashed to me and before I know it, he managed to take a clean slice to my head, it was taken off of my body with his cleaver.
My head landed on the ground before my actual body fall down as well. Blood was pouring out of my body quickly just like the normal waterfall, and Elijah just stood there thinking it was over. He looks at my body, while blood continue to spill.
He then starts to laugh after finally killing me. "FINALLY! Revenge is finally over...I can rest after murdering someone who took down a whole civilization..." -He said. He moved his head down, and dropped his cleaver. He have his eyes closed for a moment.
After some time, he opened his eyes and picked up his cleaver from the ground and waited over to my body. All of a sudden, some black like venom was circulating around my body, stopping him in his tracks.
"What the hell..."-He said. He looks up to see some red eyes, darting at him. He then looks back at my body to see all the blood on the ground, slowly head back inside of my body. There is nothing he can do since the venom is protecting my body from getting hurt or disturbed.
The blood then managed to grab my head and somehow re-connected it together and attach to my body. Finally, skin started to regenerate to where the stab was from the cleaver itself. After some time, the venom went away.
Elijah immediately ran to my body trying to damage it even more, but he was stopped when someone jumped down in front of him and grabbed his neck, choking him. He can only gasp in horror and he sees my eyes completely bright red and I was able to move my eyes around, trying to process everything that has happened and before I got temporarily killed.
All I can see is my vision being red, two black figures in front of me, blooding dripping from one of them at the bottom of someone's hand, my heart pounding at 70-100 beats per minute, trying to start the cycle of the normal human body, and the rest of my skin, pale white.
I finally got up and that's when it hits me. I turned around to see black blood and look back at the two pitch black figures.
It was the first time I actually died.
