Corrupted: Death Follows (Male Reader x Charlie) (BOOK 3)

Bloodied Plains

After a moderate quiet ride, Y/N arrived at Bleedin Shards. He parked the truck a few feet away from the arch that held the sign that he was sent a picture of. He turned off the car and put the keys in his pocket, wanting Sallie's ride to stay in mint condition. Or, at least the condition it was in when he received the gracious offer. He walked towards the abandoned town as a slight breeze filled the quiet of night. The crunch of gravel under his shoes also added to the occasional interruption of silence. He walked under the entrance, with the faded letters that initially brought him here. He looked around, as the silhouettes of buildings blocked out the night sky. There were some concrete buildings, about six stories, but they were dilapidated. The wooden buildings that were at maximum three stories were more common, and filled the majority of the desolate town. They showed their wear and tear when you saw them up close, but far away they seemed like perfect little lodges.

He walked further into the town, scanning his surroundings for any clues or signs that his stalker left for him. Suddenly, all the lights in town turned on, illuminating the once shadowy maze of buildings. Y/N looked around, as if all the lights were pointed at him, waiting for him to make his next move. In reality, they weren't, but they paranoia that filled his body as he tried to figure out why the stalker wanted him here was starting to build.

"I'm here!" Y/N yelled, a little frustrated. He wanted to settle this, and by judging the radiating energy coming off of his mark, the other part of him was ready as well. He continued to look around, as the town still remained illuminated. Suddenly, he saw a figure standing on top of a building, with two blades. They also had some kind of gun strapped to their back. They jumped down, landing on the ground below. They walked towards Y/N slowly.

"Is this it?" She asked, her determined voice filling the air.

"I guess," Y/N said confused "You sent me the message. Who are you?" He continued, getting over the confusing mind games this chick was playing.

"Message? I didn't send you- Oh shit, it's a-" she began, but before she could finish a loud explosion rang out, blowing up one of the nearby buildings.

Out of it erupted many demons with robotic enhancements. Their limbs could stretch what seemed like forever, and their attacks seemed more harsh. The cloaked demon fought her own against the horde of the altered demons, but they started to head for Y/N. He groaned, realizing this was another trap. He chuckled though, as he ripped his shirt off. His demon form began to take over. As the robotic hellspawn approached Y/N quickly, his body transformed into the creature that everyone in Hell feared to a degree. He looked up, his black horns perturbing from his skull as blood ran down his face. He grinned with his large teeth, before sprouting his wings and flying towards the oncoming traffic of beings to be slaughtered. 

He shredded the front lines, as his body flew through them like a missile. He landed in the middle, causing a huge crater and a shockwave that blasted everyone back. Carcasses littered the once vacant town, and the ones that still were standing rushed at the corrupted beast. One leaped up, aiming to tackle Y/N. He easily stopped the foe with his grasp, and swung his body around, knocking back all the oncoming combatants. He then ripped the guy in two, blood and oil leaking onto the ground as his body twitched its final movements.

A girl demon used her modified limbs to reach from afar and try to strangle Y/N. She got her hands around his neck, but he pulled her in and yanked her hands through her torso, her robotic limbs curled up in and out of her. He slashed through demons, blood covering his face as their wounds gushed gallons.

In the background, the cloaked woman was doing well. She was holding her own. She got hit a few times here and there, but she was alive against an army. That was better than most.
