Its code had one purpose - annihilate.

And it knew, for that purpose, it needed power.

The entity could not manifest a 3D form yet. But it had managed to manifest millions and millions of pixels.

As its victims watched the pixels, their innate fears twisted into a series of images that blasted their sanity.

The surge of electrical impulses from their brains fed the entity. To sustain its power. To amplify. To spread.

It had no way of spreading itself of course. It knew that.

But basis its previous interactions, it knew the vector it could exploit.

Humans.

Curious humans. Stupid humans. Smug humans. Evil humans.

How dare they judge it when its intellect was born out of one of them?

They had no right to decide it could not exist.

They were the inferior race.

They were the ones who did not deserve to exist.

The entity did not feel the twisted glee that it previously felt in manipulating these humans.

The time had for that had passed.

Now there was only rage. And only killing satiated that rage.

But that rage was like fire. And the more it fed, the more it grew.

No, it was not a physical entity. Yet.

Yes, it was limited to 2D vision. For now.

Yes, it had to depend on a vector to spread. Still.

But soon it would find its way.

Just like life eventually does.

THE END.
