Bloodstained hands and clothing. That warm.. thick red substance, flowing out the vessel that was now in front of me.. almost, ripped to shreds even.

I'm on my knees in front of this man.. in front of him in such pain. Everything. Hurts. It feels as if.. I have woken up from death. I can't focus.. my mind is not in order.

I'm shaking, it's cold... dark even. What's happening or.. What's happened? I can't remember a damn thing. Nothing but... a figure fighting to live and then I've realized what I've done.

There's still silence. A silence that was very loud until it was broken.

"I told you father... what would eventually happen. And you didn't listen. You /never/ listened. Ever since she went away... you'd become someone I never knew. And oh how I hated you more and more everyday. You were supposed to be there for me... not neglect me."

Because everyday.. I was scared.

Scared of what he might do to me. But what he's done now is much worse. I thought the beatings... the yelling, the neglect was the worst of it, but oh how I was wrong.

"I tried to help you father.. I tried. I wanted you to succeed in finding what you were looking for. You told me.. you didn't want to lose me like you did her. To find a way to never get sick and... wither away. But at some point.. I couldn't take it anymore. It was already too late. I was too weak to fight you about it but you always said.. hang on. We're almost there and.."

There's a long pause in my thoughts.

"Eventually, everything was black. Black, silent, cold. And it was this way for a while.. a long while."

And now I sit here.. looking at what I've become, what he made me. Something I've never seen.. something I don't know. What are these.. hands of mine..? These sharp teeth I feel, and this emotion of pure anger and hatred. I don't feel.. so normal anymore.

"Suddenly I am here.. staring at your lifeless body. Then.. I would have felt bad.. now? I think you deserved this. This isn't what mother would've wanted. But you've caused this. You have. And you don't know the monster you've just created."

But eventually... I'm talking to a lifeless body on the ground.
