A Psycho's Mind

(It is extremely short and my first actual edit and published story here. I may expand it just a bit, with more depth or work on other stories. Either way I hope you enjoy)

A PSYCHO'S Mind

God, people now-a-days are so naïve. Everything to them is a joke. I'm a serial killer, I admit it. There is no need for me to cover it or deny it, I admit it with full honesty. But, when I admit it to people of today's society they just laugh like it's a stupid joke they got out of a cracker. Because in the end, it's always the quiet ones, the person you least expect. The underdog of sorts. Many discount this fact, not knowing killers seem like ordinary people and do (usually) ordinary things.

Can you pick out me in a crowd? I think not. I look like your average Joe, I blend in. It's my camouflage of sorts. Don't disregard this fact either, I do kill... Would I be a killer if I didn't? People to be exact.

Did I happen to read your mind? You were thinking I was a killer of animals. Oh no. I've escalated to a different level of killing, and different thrills and excitements. See animals don't amount to the same excitement as the shrieks of people begging for mercy when you have no intent of stopping. The sound of skin being torn followed by the same, high-pitched scream of agony, excites me. But I keep slicing and dicing them, laughing manically as if this is nothing.

I'm a psycho, a sadist if you will. I love hearing the screams that mix with the sound of flesh and muscle tearing makes for a heady cocktail. Oh and the realization on the victim's face, that precious moment when they realize they realize there is no getting out of this, that they're going to die right here and at the mercy of my hands That to me is the icing on the proverbial cake. As a bonus, they'll never escape, and will likely never be seen again. Well alive.

That look is unique. Each one of those faces are carved into my mind like a teacher when they carve the same damn lesson over and over again. Except the lessons didn't stick but, the faces did! Oh, I love it. Not as much as how I plan to torture and eventually kill my victims. Those are so fun to think out, and even more fun to preform through. A bit like a bondage fantasy or some weird fetish. You dream and prepare to preform those sinister and weird acts on another (or maybe yourself and in the end they're never the same as you expected. I'm often in the same boat always having to come up with new ways to meet my high expeditions.

You thought I did these things just out of the blue? Oh no, it's premeditated. I spend days, weeks, and even months planning my form of torture. Also, any idiot knows that you can't just go and grab a victim from the street. You have to choose wisely, wait and watch. You need to know their routine like the back of your hand. And then you pounce! You can't be sloppy, and sloppy gets you caught and I can't afford to be caught.

They're a bit like a theater play. I dream of these brutal acts of which I am the leading role and each of my victims have their own parts to play. There is no time to rehearse, just one sinister scene and then finished! The last tendrils of my screaming masterpiece reverberates off the damp basement walls. That is pure beauty that is my design.

This makes you feel sick doesn't it? Makes you want to call the police on me? To catch this 'sick bastard in his admittance of this sinister and twisted acts of pure evil!' Don't bother on trying because you have a better chance of finding a needle in a haystack. I may be a killer but, like every good serial killer, I'm smart and always one step ahead. As Stephen King once said, 'I think that we're all mentally ill; those of is outside the asylums only hide it a little better- and maybe not all that much better after all.' You probably creeped out? You likely heard a bang. I bet you did. You haven't looked behind yourself lately, have you? That would ruin my surprise! Now look... I've been standing here the whole time.
