Unbound Legacy

Unveiled darkness

As Ruin was busy hunting in the forest, he caught sight of an injured rabbit struggling to walk. "I knew this was my lucky day, no one can have such shit luck on their birthday," he thanked the heavens as he had not caught anything almost the whole day. But as he approached, the injured rabbit suddenly stood upright and bolted deep into the forest. Ruin cursed aloud, furious at the rabbit that had tricked him.

"You think you can outsmart me, you stupid rabbit?" he growled, his voice dripping with frustration.

The rabbit then poked its head out of a nearby bush, and Ruin could swear it had a smirk on its face. He vowed that he would not go back until he had killed that stupid rabbit and made it into stew, laughing manically as he chased the rabbit deeper into the forest.

When he finally caught sight of it again, it had jumped into another bush, and he followed suit. But it was as if it had never been there; the rabbit had disappeared, and he did not see it coming out of the bush. Lost in his train of thought, wondering where that damn rabbit might have gone, he suddenly heard a voice in the forest and decided to investigate who could be this deep in such a desolate forest.

His heart pounded in his chest as he observed the scene unfolding before him. A woman, dressed in a bikini top with large breasts and wearing a short with black stockings on and boots with a tattoo of the number five on her back, meticulously drew a pentagon-shaped magic circle on the forest floor.
As she finished, she muttered to herself, uncertainty lacing her voice. "Is this the correct way? Only one way to find out," she murmured, her tone tinged with dark amusement.
Ruin's breath hitched as he watched the ring on her hand shimmer with malevolent energy and then bound men came out of it.They struggled futilely as she dragged them into the circle."Homura please you can't do this to us,what do you want money?, we'll give it to you , just let us go!..." their protests drowned out by the eerie silence of the forest.
One of the captives, realizing their dire predicament, stood up and shouted,"Homura!You bitch I'll kill you!" As he ran at her trying to push her, only to be met with a blast of purple flames that sent him crashing to the ground.He lay on the ground groaning in pain continuing to curse at Homura. "You really don't learn your lesson do you?" She said to the man before setting the man's eyes on fire with a simple swipe of the hand."That seemed fun do any of you wanna try?" She asked while looking at the others who quickly shookntheir head as any traces of defiance had been quickly extinguished by fear.
With a cold efficiency, she positioned each man at the edges of the magic circle, their defeated expressions mirroring Ruin's growing sense of dread. As she stepped into the center and began chanting, a chill crept up Ruin's spine.
Unable to remain silent any longer, Ruin whispered hoarsely, "What... what are you doing?"
The woman paused, her gaze flickering to where Ruin cowered in the shadows. "Oh! You finally decided to come out,I wondered whether you would hide there the whole day and to answer your question I am witnessing the birth of something magnificent," she replied cryptically, her voice sending shivers down his spine.
"But they're innocent! You can't just..." Ruin's protest died on his lips as the woman's piercing gaze bore into him.
"Innocent?" she scoffed, a smirk playing on her lips. "There is no innocence in this world, only power and those who seek it but to ease your nerves these men are a far cry from innocent,they are the scum of the earth,murder,rape,assault the list continues,do you really think they still derseve to live?"
As the ritual reached its climax, a rift tore open in the fabric of reality, casting an ominous glow over the forest. "Finally I thought it would never finish,but you know what kid,I like you, you got courage.So kid,do you wanna come with me?"she asked ruin with a devilish grin.
Frozen in place by shock and disbelief, Ruin felt immense pressure in those words and immediately knew he had no say in the matter and unwillingly agreed.Homura cheered in Glee as he threw her bags at him and announced that since his so weak he will carry the bags and was tossed inside the rift.
