Part 4

Darkness . That was the only thing he ever known .  All his life , he had never left this place.

Everything was dark and cold but he was never bothered by them. He was grown with it , live with it , they were already a part of him .

With a bored expression , Eren use his ice power to conjure a few weapons and mythical creatures that could make anyone feared him. At first,  he wasn’t thinking in anything in particular when a voice from his past memory ring inside his head.

No ones wants you Eren

No one ever loved you

You were better off dead

They wished you were never born

Anger rise inside him. His hatred was overwhelming that the temperature of his surrounding drops drastically. And when he heard a footstep approaching, he quickly use the weapons that he had conjure earlier to attack the intruder only to failed . As the so called intruder , is far more superior than him. Wiping off all his ice weapons , with his black sand .

“ Such amazing show of hatred you have there” said Pitch as he walked closer to Eren while clapping his hands

“ Its just you “ snorted Eren

“ Is that your way of greeting the one that have been  raising you as his own son ? ” said Pitch in rather stern voice

“ I deeply apologize , .. Father “ said Eren

“ Good . I’ll be leaving for a while . I expect you to guard this place while Im gone” His tone was rather of a commanding one than a statement

“ Yes , Father “ said Eren as he watched his so called father disappear into the darkness without a trace .

He never knew where exactly his father was heading , neither did he knew how exactly his father escape this dark and cold place . It always been a wonder to him.

“ Is there anything besides cold and darkness  ?” his memory of him when he was just mere 5 years old played inside his mind .

“ you’re a monster . seeded with hatred and revenge .your life is meant to be in the dark.” said Pitch

Eren winced at the memory .

“ A monster ..” he mumbled to himself . While usually the word will cause an anger rise inside him , but at the moment , how he wished he wasn’t the monster Pitch claimed him to be .

But he knew it far too well. If his parents wasn’t willing to accept him as their child, no one would. He should just shut away those silly childish thoughts away. Lock away . Never to be open.

Eren sit aimlessly at what suppose to be a hallroom occasionally conjuring a few ice sculpture with his power. Another moment passed .

“ perhaps I should practice my self defense” said Eren to himself . Just then , he heard something tumbled . Almost as if something had fall down and tumble himself against some pile of rocks .

“ Who’s there ?!” said Eren in an alarming tone

Eren notice that the noise came from the end of the hall room. Cautiously , he went over to investigate . He was assigned to guard the place , and he wouldn’t want to let his father down.

He could hear whimper and groans of pain coming from the direction. He went closer and prepared for a fight just incase he needs any .

He would never thought that , the next moment that he’ll encounter the so called intruder , it will change his life forever .
