Necrocite

the Story of Sevsix The Zyphr part. 1

I am Zyphr 7676 or "Sevsix" as called by my mancer. 

Necromancers are beings who re-animate dead bodies for their own purposes. Zephyrs are created specifically by Necromancers to hunt down other hypernatural beings such as Polterifts, Splices and in some cases beings even as strong as Necrocites a close more powerful cousin of necromancers. Necromancers feared the stronger Necrocites due to the fact that a Necrocite that absorbs a Necromancer's genetic material gets extremely enhanced abilities. Though this is against their code Mancers took necessary pre-cautions to ensure this never happens. Thus, the ungodly Zephyr was born a Necromancers undead puppet extremely dangerous and created from a severely tortured soul.

I am Zyphr 7676 and this is the story of my creation.

(POV of Toby mediocre necromancer)

This wasnt the usual graveyard fieldtrip after the coffeehouse massacre 2 weeks ago, all fresh bodies were buried and ready for the taking of any mancer  wanting to increase his or her team roster. The oracle informed us that the Kingston School of Necromancy had sent an undercover embalmer to prep the bodies with soul gems to preserve them for takeover. Our class who won the raffle for the class being able to go on this mission was split into 8 teams of 3 each with their own cadaver a already captured low level slave to do labor like digging up bodies. Ours was Eddy he was a japanese business man who commited suicide the class before us named him that and he was about 3 years old the second best out of all of the teams.

"Okay everyone goggles on." Our team leader said in a low whisper. This was Cameron who wore a dark hood that shadowed everything but his mouth and chin. He's second in the class and is the best free fighter in Phys Ed. meaning he can project powerful arts without the need of a cadaver. We all put on our goggles and saw the heat and soul traces or everything around us. The graveyard was scattered with the faint glowing souls.

"Here take this Carnothrax." He handed both me and Alyssa our other team member a small plastic bag filled with white powder.

"Where did you get this?? We're not allowed to use this here!" Alyssa said loudly.

"Lower you're voice Alyssa! Instructor said it doesnt matter as long as we obtain the objective. I need to do this if I want to finish top of class. It doesnt matter where I got the Carnothrax, you all know how to use it right?"

"Well yeah, not that we can! Toby and I aren't as good at physical arts as you!" Alyssa said. 

"Fine!" Toby snatched away the bag from Alyssa." You can control Eddy then! Here Toby."He handed me her share of the Carnothrax." You were there when coach taught us how to use this I need you to sneak over to team three and control Malcolm put a little in his water bottle."

"Okay." I responded Carnothrax is a combination of chemicals that if ingested or enhaled increases  the extremities of your moods such as extreme anger or depression as well as makes it much easier to control the victim undetected. Malcolm is top of our class so I could see why Cameron wanted to use it on him everyone knew he was the most likely to collect the best bodies. Also their team has Cyborg the schools only bone golem as a cadaver he's brand new and has 2x the strength of any human but he's slow. 

"Okay here's the plan, after you drug Malcolm I need you to get him to assault one of his team mates making him angry. Do this after they obtain the bodies and then we come in and take the bodies Alyssa you get Eddy to grab the bodies and I'll deal with the golem agreed?" The leading tone in his voice made me want to follow his orders. I just wanted a body good enough to raise I heard there might be a soul in there thats Zyphyr material but Cameron will probably get it. Cameron ran to the masoleum to prepare his attack while I skulked along the tombstones up to Malcolms team. They were in the middle of capturing their second body when Malcolm set down his water bottle to work on prepping the body. His other team mates watched him while I tipped a bit of the carnorax in the water bottle. According to my goggles there was no abnormally powerful subjects in their collection. I dropped my other bag and while I went to pick it up Cyborg saw me and immediately smashed down upon my hand. The bone stone shattered it and pain was so pwerful it made my head shake I bit my teeth and ripped from the golems grasp. As I was running malcolm shot a beam of ectoacid at me. I rolled and ran away as fast as I could with my hand pulsing from crushed cartiledge. I looked back to see Alyssa and Cameron fighting for their lives and like the coward I am, I ran out of the graveyard. 

I hurried down the wet streets to a back alley where I kept running until I slipped on a puddle and clutching my hand dislocated my shoulder. my wet jacket was cold as I layed there on the ground. looking up at the sky between the two buildings. So high up that it looked like just a crack of moonlight. I layed there imagining what became of my team mates with my entire arm sore when I head it.

It was a blessing for you... ...To watch me drown that's all you do..

It sounded like an angel. The door behind me muffled a song so beautiful  wasn't thinking clearly.

And when you open that do-or... I won't be there not an-ymo-re.. A blessing for you-

I got up still aching everywhere and walked over to the door cold and dripping wet. I opened the door and the warm air bathed over me the music showered me and I could hear the soft melodies more clearly. The room was lit by bright yellow light and there were curtains, chairs and various musical instruments.  I looked over and saw a beautiful brown haired girl up on stage singing in a white dress. I was so lost in her beauty that I didnt even hear the song end.

To wa-a-a-a-tch me drown...

..forever...

She walked toward me and it all felt like a dream. She was glowing when she walked over in my direction. She was about 6 feet away from me when my mind woke up and I was staring at her eyes.

"You must be Ricky's cousin." The way her lips moved when she spoke was all I could think about   "She didn't tell me you were so cute." She let out a small giggle that made my whole chest lift up.

"Haha yeah" I responded not knowing what I said. 

"Well you look pretty beat up what happened?" She said.

"Well it's just my hand and shoulder." I said

"Aww you poor thing. Here, let me see." She walked over and took off my jacket to show that large bruise that was already there.

"Oh my gosh! What happened? Was it something with the car?" I nodded still lost in her blue eyes.

"Here my best friend who's studying for me to be a nurse taught me this." she held my arm her hands were soft and gentle." Ok dont move this might hurt a bit." She snapped my shoulder back in place I felt a hard pain but after that It felt so much better.

"There that should heal up. Now let me see you hand." I held up my hand and my elbow ached a bit as I moved it.

"Wow I think this place has a 1st aid kit. I'll fix you up just as soon as I get my money from the club owner and thank the piano player." She walked off.

Wow I've never met a girl that beautiful  watched her walk over to the manager of the club and talk they talked for a while and he looked angry. He slapped her across the face and she fell on the ground and just got up and walked away while he still yelled behind her. I closed my good hand in a fist and ran up and decked the manager right in the teeth he flew back not expecting the impact while I picked up a stool and broke it over his head. He layed there on the ground unconscious while I searched his pockets for money I found 500 bucks and handed 100 to the nice piano player. I walked back over to the girl. "Hey are you okay?" I asked her.

"I'm fine." she said clutching her face"That man you just hit though runs a huge crime organization out of here. Thank you but, we better not be here when he wakes up he'll be looking for me."

"I've got friends that'll protect you." I handed her the leftover 400 dollars." Here you deserve it. What you did up there was beautiful."

"Thankyou, he didn't think so apparently. Let me get my stuff and lets get out of here." She grabbed her purse and we walked outside she grabbed my hand and I felt sparks surge up my fingertips. She walked slightly ahead of me when a step I took shook my goggles back down in my face. There I saw it. Bright purple. The reading were off the charts! The levels of agony on this girl where 5x as high as the priniciple's zyphyr. If I had one that strong I'd be top of the class and be able to drop out and become a deadly necromancer. I pulled the plastic bag out of my pocket with the left overs and decided what I was going to do.
