Psychopathism.

Prologue.

We all have our own mental issues.
Those who have them, sometimes having difficulties in the outside world.

However, some that have learned and evolved, can enjoy life as they wanted them to be.

for a price.

There is a famous serial killer out on the streets.
Around midnight, those who wander the nights alone would disappear and re-appear again in random locations around town, lifeless and torn.
Their bodies would have around 22 stab wounds, their eyes gouged out, their kidneys gone, and their wrist would have cuts that said:
"Fear the Reaper".

After the first few killings, the authorities grew more seriously about this case. They tried everything, but it led always to a dead end. Then a few months or so later, the case grew cold and soon forgotten.
The killings too has gotten silent, as if the killer grew tired from killing people and wanted peace of mind

Three years has passed, and it seemed that the Reaper has gone off from the face of the world.

Lance woke up with a start.
He felt super exhausted, especially when college finally starts. He got up and sat on the edge of his bed. He can feel his hands and legs are numb, from the cold of the air conditioner in his room. He know that he should get up and get ready, but he is taking his time to reflect his mind.

He got up and went to his bathroom. He could sense by the look on his face that he just needed a few more minutes of sleep, but he knew that he must prep now. His hair is messy, and his bags are dark as hell. He could use a coffee or two. He turn on his sink and splash cold water to his face. The refreshing water seemed help out a bit, but it wasn't enough, he decided to get himself a cold shower for today.

20 minutes has passed, and now a nicely dressed Lance is ready for breakfast. He lives in an apartment, not too far from his university. His place isn't that bad too, everything is nice and comfortable. He made himself a quick breakfast, just toasts and egg, with a nice cup of coffee. When he finished, he bring his place and mug to the table, and sat there, having his breakfast. He felt a slight pain in his head, but he decided to go and ignore it for now.
'It'll pass, I'm sure,' He said in his head, as he continue with his breakfast.

After he finished, he quickly clean everything up, grab his things and head on outside to school/university. Since it's not far, he decided to take his time to walk there. It's currently still around 5.30 am, so not a lot of people/none come to school early, since they don't bother waking up this early.

The empty streets and cold morning feels comfortable for Lance, since he much prefer silence and solitude than noisy mornings. The wind blowing and the street lights that still on makes it calming. Without realizing, he is already at the front gate of his university. As usual, he goes in and check attendance list via finger scan, then went to his class.

However, today is gonna be a different day than usual. As usual, he knows that no one would be in the classroom, but today, as he enter his class, a gasp was heard and when he located where the sound came from, he stare at the figure from where he is standing. He didn't blink, breathe, nor move until the figure stand up.

"Who are you?" Lance asked, with a demanding tone.
The person seemed nervous, as he gives a different pose.
"U-um... I-I'm new here," The figure said, paused, and immediately he can tell that its a he.
Lance come close and trying to look on his face since it was covered by his hoodie, "What is your name?" Lance asked.
The figure seemed a little scared, and he seemed the kind of person who mostly by himself, and never really socialize well.
Before he could say anything, he can hear that students are outside now and he must not let anything change, he must remain the way he is.

Few more minutes have passed and now the docent has come to the class.
"Now students, I would like to introduce you to one of our new transfer student. Come on forward, please." the docent said as the person got up, he knew that it was the person he encounter this morning.

"Please introduce yourself to your classmates."
When the new student reveal himself, he stare wide eyed.

"H-Hello, m-my name is Placido Ardientche"
