Shadows of our end - KDA x Male Reader (Original)

Act 2 - 003

*** 432 days later ***

I have been thinking after all this time...

That I probably look and smell like fucking shit. I haven't seen myself in a long time and my attempts to keep my beard and hair under control have probably been shoddy at best. I want to take a shower, with water and soap.

This blood and mucus thing isn't working for me anymore. I haven't not felt sticky and grimy for almost a year now... actually over a year.

The other thought is that I am probably infected because I haven't been able to eat anything other than meat lately. If I tried to digest anything fruity I puke it up instantly and there is a good chance that I have some sort of parasite in my body.

Because after looking at this world, almost everything looks like it could be a parasite.

Am I even human anymore?

I ask myself as I push myself away from where I was sitting. It has gotten easier to live here, I make my clones fight for me and keep me safe so I can sleep in more comfortable places without having to fear that a bug might be tearing open my throat in my sleep.

I then walk towards a weird cliff formation, I dig my hand into the bone and climb down to see under it the flyers like Buddy hanging from it. I launch a spear through one's chest and teleport to my spear while driving it deeper while the two of us plummet into the Abyss below.

We crash down into the ground, it dies from the impact.

I then walk up to it. "Sorry. Wish I could kill you in your sleep but I need your body."

I then press my hand against the wound pouring my shadows into it - I have been practising this one for weeks. I have been able to do it with smaller creatures but I need to get something to be able to fly around.

I pour even more into his body till the body is coated fully in shadows.

I step away from it and wait - waiting - waiting - waiting. I feel like I have been waiting forever until I finally see something move. A shadow climbs out of the body with the same shape and form as the creature.

My eyes widened with wonder and huge triumph as I finally did something I'd been spending months trying to do.

"Fuck YES!" Got to give you a name now. Huh?" I chuckle as the creature crawls towards me dropping down in front of me, "You are a dead creature I resurrected with my shadow but still somehow has a personality, huh? Is it because your brain is larger than the little voiding?"

I then twist my lips to the side. A pity I couldn't turn the brood mother back then. Would have been good to have something like that on my side. But then again... it was very weak. Maybe that is why it hid in the caverns.

"Does Buddy work for you?" I ask it knowing it can't answer me. "Guess it will do for now until I either replace you or get a name that suits you."

I lift myself walking towards it, it lowers itself for me to get onto its back as it starts flying up. I then ready my attacks because I trapped one of these creatures once only for it to get jumped on the way up by the mantis bugs.

I launch spears of shadow that pin them each to the walls around, no point turning them to shadow seeing as they don't even match my clones in strength. Then again I am not sure if they can evolve if they are in a shadowy form.

We reach the heights of this place as I glance around. Noticing the same Leviathan dragon floating past us.

"Wonder if I can take one of you with me."

Not now, I just want to get around and with Buddy here being as nimble as he is it would be easy. He flies forward at my command but much faster than the others, maybe because I am ordering him to do so.

*** 570 days with Ashe not being able to fall asleep ***

Parts of my skin are covered by this weird texture, I haven't been paying much attention to it but I think it has to do with the parasite. It reminds me of the suit Kai'Sa had but I wonder why it isn't a full thing.

Is it because I haven't used it? Because I didn't need to use it? I kind of want to be rid of it already but it looks like I need it to be able to digest anything in this place. My sense of taste is gone and I don't think I know what good smells like.

That or my senses are just fucked.

Flying around on Buddy I notice something I have been avoiding for the longest time.

Whatever it is the attacks rip through matter and burn it away - some weird eye beam from the smaller ones with fewer tentacles but I haven't seen this one in specific do anything other than aimlessly floating around.

I stay far away from them because just like the Dragon they haven't tried to come near me and I don't want to learn if I can kill them. This is rare though... because out of...like... two years being down here I've only seen a few of them.

But I have been travelling in one direction so it means I am getting closer to something. I hope so at least.

I kind of feel lonely... took me a while but I am tired of not being able to talk to anything. Talk to anyone. It has just been me trying to survive so I never thought about much other than surviving but now that I feel like I can relax.

It is lonely.

I miss them.
