Renascence (M.K)

十八

Impinge upon the pit of the bottomless abyss, there was nothing but an eternal darkness. A taut repression kept his consciousness awake yet his eyes remained blinded with no any beam of light to descry.

He felt the unknown power within his own blood surging through his veins and surmounting all over his body. He can oddly sense himself being under someone's control, constraining his muscles against his almost desperate strenuous efforts of escaping the suffocating darkness.

Black blobs still coating his vision but very well he knows he is wide awake.

'Perhaps this is a bizarre dream.' Ryuta thought whilst he kept his body struggled into the unrelenting invisible ropes that seemed to have binded his entire body.

He let out a hysterical scream but his voice appeared to only have echoed beyond the illimitable pitch back that have surrounded him wholly. Until Ryuta suddenly heard the slow solitary driblets on the ground. The pupils in his eyes dilated and focused to the source of the sound but in his dismay, his sight cannot espy anything.

He can feel it. The sound of the gentle driblets of the unknown liquid seemed to be approaching his standing stiff figure. Then he hold his breath as he sharpen his sense of hearing and waited for what possible odd incident could occur next to him.

His eyes open wide with surprise. He abruptly felt the unknown viscous liquid shredded on his right cheek. He gasped in shock and fear. His breath went hoarse and hard but Ryuta's instincts was taking him all.

He flew his index finger to touch the liquid that have fallen on his bare cheek. The coldness transfered to his hand until he caught it's aromatic smell. The scent of the small drop was irresistible and looks to be very ambrosial to his taste buds.

Then Ryuta realized how in instant it extremely triggers his hunger. The parch feeling sents friction to his throat. He gulped his saliva and leveled his finger to his parting lips.

The almost viscid liquid was running cold on his index finger. He immediately gave in to the relenting luscious scent and let his tongue take a taste of the small amount of liquid. He savored the every last morsel of the fluid and he was aware what have dripped on his cheek isn't water but ends up to be more than sufficient to any fragment of food he had previously tasted.

It eventually made him insatiable, making his desire to seek and taste it once more. It drives him wild. He instantly felt the adrenaline rushing through the every corner of his veins whilst heart throbbing wildly on his chest.

Ryuta's breath hardens. He was turning obsessed and unreplenished. He crawled on the ground almost like a desperate animal, casting around for what was turning him insane. Suddenly his vision regained and catch a faint white light. He squinted his eyes and attempted to vividly look at the strange light but unexpectedly he audibly heard again the loud dripped of liquid up on something he cannot fathom.

The white light gleamed on the driblets of the red liquid as Ryuta's eyes were outright covered with fear and hesitation.

The cloy scent was inviting him once again and as it was getting stronger, it made him difficult to resist. He suddenly feared his mind's assumptions could be indicating the truth.

"T-That thing.." He fearfully uttered with his lower lip quivering with disgust, anger and fear.

"I've tasted is... blood."
