《Gates》


 1. In The Beginning.

    Isa woke up that morning, and was in massive pain. He had a huge headache as if someone was drilling holes into his forehead, and hammering the drills at the same time. He also felt as though someone had decided to rip all his muscles in half several times over. in addition to that, he felt as though someone had ripped out almost all his teeth and was pushing new ones in. These new teeth where searing and felt like they were electrically charged. And to make matters worse, he felt as though someone had ripped out his fingernails and toenails. And finally, he felt as though someone had decided to jab a burning rod into the base of his spine. Isa was knocked out very quickly.


    When Isa regained consciousness, he felt better, but he felt very odd. But on a basic instinctual level, Isa knew that this different was somehow better. When he got out of his bed, he almost fell back down. He was imbalanced, and this was a serious problem. Isa was very concerned with his body''s fitness, and being imbalanced felt foreign. Because of this, Isa could tell that something was seriously wrong. He stumbled to his bathroom and thought back to the pains he''d barely remembered from earlier.


    "Did they mean anything?" he asked no one.


    Isa got to his bathroom after a sore and imbalanced walk and nearly fell back onto his rear in shock. before, he was by all accounts good looking. He had short black hair, an olive complexion with gold eyes. His nose was an angular, pointed nose, and he had medium lips that many women would''ve liked to get a taste of. He was tall, taller than most, at around two meters tall, with a well-toned, but slim body.


    Now, in addition to all that, he had a pair of horns that first curled forwards, then back around the sides of the top of his head. His eyes were even more prominently golden, and the iris now had a slight blue shimmer, as if he had a choroid layer. His teeth were all sharp and serrated, almost like that of a shark. He put his head in his hands, leaned forwards a bit, and vomited a little from the shock. He noticed that his fingernails were basically claws, and leaning forwards helped with balance. He looked back to the mirror, and his face was as if it was bleached. Small tremors ran through his body, and his heart stopped for a few seconds. When he turned to back away from the mirror that was showing him a demonic version, he heard a loud and hollow thunk. Something had struck the door with amounts of force.


    He whipped his head around frantically and winced in pain as his neck muscles couldn''t handle the extra momentum of his head and horns. He saw nothing that could have hit the door in his line of vision. By this point, he was hyperventilating because of the fear and the unknown. He took another look into the mirror as if to confirm that this was all really happening. It was when Isa saw the tail that was slowly swishing behind him in response to his movements that he finally collapsed unconscious due to shock.


    ***


    Isa finally woke up from his terror-induced unconsciousness because of his newfound hunger. It called to him as air would to a drowning person. He got up in a daze and stumbled to his refrigerator. He searched for several minutes and found nothing that appetized him. In some sort of instinct, Isa knew he would have to leave his house to get what he so desperately needed. At this point, Isa had no cognitive capabilities left to him, and as such, failed to notice many strange things that were happening around him. His door flew open as he got near to it, and slammed closed after he had gone through; it was winter, and all the snow falling seemed to avoid him; and how even no-one seemed to see him that night as he walked nude through the streets.


    Isa lived on the edge of the city, and because he wasn''t aware, he didn''t realize that he was in the downtown core, and it was in the latter half of the night. And as per usual, the unsavory elements of the city were more active during the night. They were the only people who saw Isa as he wandered around, dazed and confused. They didn''t see Isa''s extra inhuman characteristics, and they felt that he would be a good target to murder. They fell into step around fifteen meters behind him, and continued to talk as if they were there by coincidence.


    In his dazed state, Isa recognized that he was in fact being followed. A dangerous smile graced the lips as the hunters because the hunted. Isa led the two gangsters into the first dark alleyway he could find. The thugs quickly followed him. When they rounded the corner, knives in hand, and feeling confident in an easy murder, they were shocked to find that their prey was nowhere to be found.


    Isa dropped down behind them, and embraced one of the thugs in what looked like an intimate hug, while in reality, Isa had reached to the thug¡¯s neck and had severed his throat, nearly relieving him of his head. The first thug was dead without knowing why. Isa let the corpse fall, and the sound of the body hitting the ground alerted the other thug that something was amiss. He turned with his knife pointed at Isa, who swayed left and right, covered in blood that was sprayed onto him by the thug he had just killed. Isa licked his hand that was covered with blood and shuddered in delight.


    The other thug didn''t make a move. He watched in horrified fascination as Isa cleaned his hand with his exceedingly long tongue. Isa''s eyes unfocused during this euphoric tasting of his prey. Once he was done, however, his eyes refocused and he noticed the other thug right in front of him that was frozen in terror. Isa dashed forwards and seemed to flow around the knife as he stabbed his hand right through the thug''s chest, emerging through the back holding the heart. The thug crumpled and was only supported by Isa''s arm. The knife''s clattering onto the street was the only noise that punctuated the otherwise silent night. Isa withdrew his hand from the thug''s chest and watched him fall as if in slow motion.


    As the thug fell, Isa remembered that he had a heart in his hand. Entranced by the vibrant red covering the muscle, Isa brought it up to his mouth and gave it a sensuous lick. When he finished, he devoured the heart while savoring it''s rich flavour. Once he had finished with his heart, he fell into a feeding frenzy, and had finished both arms when a certain smell entranced him anew.


    The other thug, who was once doing his best to remain as still as he could, had fallen over backwards. Isa smelled his fear, and the scent bewitched him.


    "Food..." he moaned, almost sexually, even lovingly. His eyes were still glazed over, and he had the beginnings of an erection. He moaned again as the smell intensified. It was a breathy moan, one you would expect from someone who was orgasming. In the blink of an eye, Isa had flashed up to the poor thug, and looked almost as if he was kissing his neck, as to give a hickey. When Isa pulled away, however, a massive chunk from the thug''s neck was missing. Isa embraced the corpse, the last light of life fading from its eyes. Isa laid it down gently, as one would lay down something massively precious. Isa licked his lips as he delicately tore the arm off of the second thug. It was gone very shortly afterwards. The only parts left after Isa was done were the tendons and the bones. Isa then ate the rest of the two bodies, leaving only bones behind.


    When Isa was done with the meat, his eyes were still unfocused, and his tail moved as if it were on drugs. He lapped up all the blood off the walls and ground, not bothering with dignity. When he finished this, he had a full erection. Moving further down the alleyway he found a secluded spot where he crouched down, wrapped his tail around the base of his member, and furiously stroked his full length with both hands and tail. As he was nearing his release, he leaned back against the wall behind him, and when he came, he came explosively all over himself, some getting in his mouth. He then licked himself clean as if he were a cat.


    Once he was done, he went back to the piles of bones, broke them and drank their marrow. He then walked away from the remains, and failed to notice that they burst into flames that burned for several seconds, leaving only ashes behind. He returned to his house in a similar manner, and curled up on his bed like a cat, and slept as he purred.

    ***


    Isa drifted through light sleep, and broke out of it when he sensed that someone entered the house. He jumped up and dug his claws into the ceiling and crawled down to the entry hall area of his house. Isa was still in his strange trance, and he looked at the new person in a sexually hungry way.


    His cousin Luciana had walked into the house they shared, and took off her shoes in her regular manner, and walked further into their house as Isa followed her on the ceiling. She bent over to get some food from a cupboard once she reached the kitchen, and Isa dropped down from the ceiling once she did and started to reach for her waist and neck.


    When Isa''s hands were finally halfway to where he was reaching, he found himself suspended in the air by the tail wrapped around his neck. It squeezed him, and as he choked, he followed the tail to where it came from. His hands found no purchase as he tried to pry the tail from his neck. His eyes bulged even more than they were already doing when he saw his cousin with horns much like his coming out from her head, and arms crossed in an angry manner. He saw the claws on her hands, and her sharp teeth as she snarled at him.


    Just as he was about to axfixiate, she threw him onto the cold, hard ground, where he massaged his neck and coughed. He looked back and crawled away in fear. His hopes of escaped were dashed when her tail slammed down on his back, forcing him to the ground. He screamed out of pain in a primitive way, still in his instinctive, trance like state. He continued screaming as Luciana brutalized him. She broke all his limbs at least twice, and because Isa was still in his trance, he didn''t realize that he healed the breaks within minutes. Eventually he fell silent, as if something on the inside broke a little bit. He began to fight back where he could. While Luciana was breaking his leg, he reached back with his left arm and slapped her cheek, hard, drawing blood.


    Luciana stopped, and touched her cheek. "Pretty good... You know what? I''ll make you mine. C''mere."


    She gripped Isa by the hair and threw him against a wall. The way she had thrown him made his horns go through the dry-walling and stuck his head in place. It didn''t help his endeavors that Luciana had stuck his head further in magically. She gave his rear end several slaps, and he lashed out again with his arms and his tail. However, she danced away every time he did.


    While Luciana was out of his range, she disrobed and massaged a slit that was above her vaginal slit. After doing this, a semi-erect penis came out, and hardened. Luciana stroked it a bit, massaging it to full erectness. She positioned herself at Isa''s back door, and kissed his neck.


    "Hey. Be my slave, would you?" Luciana asked as she pushed herself ever so slowly into Isa''s ass. Isa roared and struggled even harder, but Luciana caught his hands and pulled them behind his back. She wrapped her tail around his, and sped up gradually. Holding on to both of Isa''s arm with one hand, she reached around him and started massaging his member in time to her pounding, and kissed his neck. She pulled her hand all the way to his member''s base, and bit his neck.


    Isa moaned and pushed back onto Luciana, and came. For a moment he went limp, but then ripped his hands out from Luciana''s grasp, and grabbed her hand that was around his penis. He kept it there, and massaged himself with his and her hands. He started pushing his body into Luciana''s thrusts to force her even deeper.


    Luciana was surprised by the developments. She had thought that Isa would fight ''till she was done with her show of dominance, and attack her shortly afterwards. "Oh? Alright then, let''s kick it up a notch," she responded to Isa''s growls. She pulled her hand away from his member and drew her claws up to his shoulder, next to her other hand. She began thrusting with all her strength into him while he jerked himself off.


    Isa groaned and then came, shooting out and hitting the wall. His convulsions caused Luciana to throw her head back and force herself all the way into Isa''s rear, and then came. Thick jets of semen coated his insides, causing him to orgasm again.


    Luciana pulled her now-flaccid member out of Isa''s rear, and went to get a wipe to clean it. She left Isa stuck in the wall, who now looked slightly stupid. When she returned, Isa had begun to clean himself, but perked up when he saw her. "Stand up," Luciana ordered him. He did.


    "Come here and sit down..." She waited until he did. "I thought you were never going to awake to your heritage, but look where you are now! My experiment was a success!" She exclaimed with an excited look in her eyes. Then, disdain filled them. "You imperfect trash! Where are your wings!?" She yelled in his face as she slapped him. He took it as if she had done nothing. His eyes were still clouded, as if he wasn''t all there. And in truth, he was not. He was still running on wild instinct, and lacked all rational capabilities.


    Isa growled as Luciana moved to cross her arms. This caused her to stop, look at him, and look back at herself and sigh. "Go away and do your own thing. Just get out of my sight, you failure!" she screamed at him as she got up. As she left, she gave him a backhanded slap that drew blood. This shocked the animalistic Isa, who growled at her and pounced.


    "You!!! Down!" Luciana yelled as she swung her tail down on Isa''s shoulder and back, causing him to dig his face into their tile flooring, breaking several tiles. Seeing this, she screamed a wordless scream at him and beat him to unconsciousness with her tail. She dragged him up to his room and threw him onto his bed to get him out of the way.


    ***


    Luciana had gone out to hunt, and had locked onto her target. This target was a rather beautiful young woman in her early twenties, with light skin and fair hair, walking as if she had no cares at all. Suddenly, her expression went blank, and she went into a dark alleyway. This puzzled Luciana, who, in a moment of clarity, realized that someone was hunting her target. She jumped across the street on the rooftops, and dropped down onto the one who was hunting her. It was another female of her kind, as most males had died out due to their unnecessary nature of their species, with the females being able to reproduce with themselves. Her prey had just turned around the corner and was now visible to both women. Luciana realized this, and quickly stabbed her hand through the other woman''s chest, grabbing hold of her heart as her hand passed it. Now free from whatever spell that was possessing her, the woman screamed bloody murder for a few short seconds.


    Luciana cursed her lapse in judgement and threw the corpse behind her and rushed over to the terrified woman and slashed her throat. "Shut up, will you?" she whispered as the woman drew her last breaths with a look of total fear etched permanently into her eyes.


    Luciana looked to her other hand that was still holding the first corpse''s heart, and ate it quickly. She then picked up on the sounds of people running into the alley to see what the sound was about. She swore again at her lapse in judgement, shouldered the woman she was holding, and grabbed the unforeseen extra food she had picked up. She crouched and jumped all the way to the top of a five-floor building next to her, and leapt to a location far away. She then ate the food in solitude and peace. She looked at the muscled tail of the woman she killed first, threw it over her shoulder and leapt towards her home.


    Once she entered, she went up to Isa''s room, and he was still unconscious from her earlier brutality. She smacked him with the tail she had brought and when he woke up, she threw it into his face.


    "Eat that. I don''t want my slave starving. It would take far too long to breed another."


    Luciana left the room and slammed the door as Isa dug into the tail. She went and fixed the tiles in the kitchen as Isa''s slobbering over the food sounded throughout the entire house. "Am I seriously going to need to keep him unconscious to keep myself sane with this uncultured swine in my presence? He wasn''t like this last week, I don''t know what''s wrong with him..." she mused. "Oh well, it doesn''t matter in the end. He''s mine."

 2. Learning

    One night when Isa was out hunting in an alleyway on the orders of Luciana, his cousin, Isa suddenly stopped. He looked at his hands. They were covered in blood, and he didn''t know where it came from. He looked around in a panic as he stumbled back away from his hands. He then noticed the pile of corpses on the other side of the alleyway. His back slammed in to the opposite wall hard enough to jerk him back to his senses.


    "What is this?" he asked himself in an inaudible whisper. He began to crawl away from the pile as he felt his bile rising. He threw up everything that was in his stomach and collapsed next to the pile of vomit.


    Isa crawled on his front as far as he could with his weakened body after he noticed several distinct shapes in the vomit. There was the distinct shape of a finger, and a portion of an eyeball. He then dry heaved several times.


    Isa pulled himself up against the alleyway''s wall, and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. His face had a terrified, sickly green look to it as he looked towards the corpses. Some of them had massive holes through their torsos, while others looked to be nearly decapitated. Several of them had been, and their heads decorated the alley with faces frozen in pure terror. Isa locked eyes with one of the heads'' dead fish-eyes, and blacked out.


    When he regained himself, he was still in the alley, but in a slightly different location. He was crouched down, holding his head in his hands while groaning. The place where the head used to lay was now a red smear with grey matter decorating the edges.


    During his blackout, he had punted the head so hard, it evaporated. The whole sequence of events had taken barely any registrable time.


    Isa groaned when he remembered the events that had transpired over the past several weeks in vivid detail. He had ripped the hearts of 12 people right out of their bodies, beheaded 42, eviscerated the 3 that had been able to injure him, and had eaten 23 of his kills. He then dry heaved again, having nothing left to vomit.


    After remembering the kills, he remembered his treatment at the hands of his cousin. He felt a surge of rage as he realised what she had done to his body. This caused him to summon all the magic he was able to handle unconciously and punch the ground, blowing the concrete around him up and back.


    One of the concrete slabs that was blown back obliterated the corpses, causing blood to splash everywhere.


    A splash of blood sprayed onto Isa''s face, causing him to flinch back away from it. Slowly, with a shaking hand, Isa brought his left hand up and touched the blood on his face and looked at it.


    "This blood... Is not my blood..." he muttered in a shocked, then screamed bloody murder and ran with all his might away from the blood on his hand.


    The blood had caused him to panic and run right into the wall that was right behind him, knocking him out.


    ***


    When Isa woke up, he remembered the sequence of events from before, and stopped all movement immediately. "Fuck!" he yelled, as he realized that he was hunting not only for him, but as an errand for his sister.


    He jumped up, and despite his revulsion, searched the area to see what could be salvaged from the corpses to appease his cousin. All in all there was one corpse that was complete enough for Luciana''s standards.


    Before Isa woke up, he would have had no qualms about covering himself with gore. Now, while keeping his body as far as he could from the meatsack, he grabbed it with one hand and held it as if it were a soiled diaper. He started to walk back to their home, but dropped the corpse as soon as he started once he heard a wet sloshing coming from the inside of its torsal cavity.


    Isa rushed back to one of the walls and heaved. Some stomach acid got onto his hand as he wiped his mouth, and when he used that hand to support himself agains a metal pipe, the pipe was corroded and broke. Isa caught himself before he fell again, and ran away from the pipe while grabbing the body.


    He looked at the corpse in utter revulsion as he forced himself to pick it up again and hold it close as he had to get on top of the rooftops to avoid detection by the normal humans. With the corpse over his left shoulder, he leaped halfway up the building before ramming his hand into the wall nearest to him and launched himself up the last little bit of the way.


    When he returned home, his cousin greeted him at the door. She slapped his face hard enough to draw blood, which healed nearly immeadiately, but Luciana didn''t care about that. "Slave! You''re late! Explain yourself! Oh wait, you can''t. Poor creature. Lick my feet."


    With rage burning in Isa''s heart, he carefully laid down the corpse, got on all fours and licked. Luciana first stuck out her left foot, so Isa started there. He took her big toe into his mouth and sucked for a few seconds while running his toungue over it. He then moved on to her other toes, taking the rest into his mouth at once and licking those much in the same way as the first one. He then ran his toungue down the arch of her foot, to the heel, and back, and resumed licking her toes. After a few short minutes of this, Luciana, with her face red, and hugging her chest with one arm reaching down to her crotch, kicked Isa away with an enraged look on her face.


    "You mindless beast! How dare you do this to me!"


    Luciana''s kick had made Isa fall over backwards, and seeing Isa in this quasi-defenceless position made her even more aroused than she already was. She walked up to him and forced her right foot into his mouth directly. "Lick, you stupid animal!"


    Having no choice in the matter, Isa complied, and licked the arch of her foot before she moved her foot so that her toes were above his mouth, and she shoved all 5 toes into his mouth, forcing his toungue to lick them. Once Isa was forced to do this, Luciana threw her head back and let out an extremely erotic moan. Isa, even though he hated her with the depths of his heart, took a sneak peek at Luciana''s moist snatch and slowly reached towards his slowly thickening member. Luciana caught this move, and pinned his left hand to the ground with magic and stomped on his right hand with her left foot.


    This move forced Luciana''s foot further down into Isa''s throat, which made Isa gag and produce more saliva, which started dripping down his face, while making a real mess of Luciana''s foot. The sensations from Isa''s mouth around Luciana''s foot proved too much to bear for her, as she orgasmed, dripping onto Isa''s face, which only served to arouse her even more, as the front of her skirt was swelling until it popped and her large member was exposed.


    With one hand around her engorged cock, she forced orgasm after orgasm out of herself while Isa was gagging around her foot, whos struggles only exited her sadistic tendencies. Every time she came, she tried to get as much of her cum onto Isa''s face.


    Every time Luciana did this, Isa vowed to make Luciana''s death more and more shameful.


    Finally, Luciana could get no more out of herself so she pulled her foot out of Isa''s mouth with a small trail of spit and bile connecting his toungue with her foot. Isa''s penis at this time was still like a flagpole, and he was still struggling against the bonds forced onto him.


    Luciana''s face lit up in sadistic pleasure as she got the idea that drove the final nail in her coffin. She stomped her foot onto Isa''s neck, removed his bindings, and told him to jerk off.


    Isa''s hands reached towards his engorged member obediently, being able to do nothing to get away or refuse. With his dwindling supply of oxygen, he rubbed himself desperately to avoid more torture. His frantic rubbing eventually caused him to ejaculate and squirt so hard he reached Luciana''s face and splashed in her eye, causing her to stumble back, shouting in rage. At that, Isa had blacked out due to the lack of oxygen reching his cells, and Luciana had nothing to take out her rage on.


    ***


    When Isa woke up, he was tied to a large post in the center of an empty room. For a quick second, he broke composure and looked around the room frantically, trying to figure out where he was. However, he quickly spotted Luciana in the corner of the room, thankfully not looking at him, but preparing a whip.


    "So, slave. You know what happens when a slave disobeys their master? They get punished. They get punished until they''re mindless dolls. Except you''re already mindless... But you''re getting punished anyways."


    Luciana trailed her whip down Isa''s back, uncoiling it as she did. She drew several steps back, and Isa made a superhuman effort not to tense up in anticipation, as that would have given him away.


    Luciana suddenly whipped his back with a force that would have ripped through most humans. On Isa, however, she only could make a deep scratch. "Looks like you can take some more. I''d ask you how you feel, but an animal can''t communicate. Ooh, look at that. You''re already healing the damage."

    Luciana whipped Isa again, harder this time. A flap of skin came loose from Isa''s back, but started healing almost immediately. Luciana let this happen and whipped the same area again. This time, Isa jerked away from the pain, as any sentient being would. With this, the cousins had begun a vicious cycle. One day turned into a week of this torture. All the while, Luciana would attack him with the whip, and let him heal up.


    At times, Luciana would leave to eat and hunt. However, she gave none to Isa. At this point, His body had gone through all the spare fats it could and eaten them, and was starting to eat his own muscles to stay alive. Their metabolism was higher than that of a human''s, who could have gone for around a month without eating. Isa''s face was starting to look a little gaunt, and he was noticeably getting thinner. After a few days of this treatment, Luciana finally let Isa go. She threw a limb at his face. It was skinned, old, and dry. All that was there was the meat on the bone. At this point, he was so hungry he even ate the bone.


    "Come, bitch. We''re hunting. Though you won''t be much help in that state," Luciana said. Isa gave her a hatefilled look as her back was turned. Because of his treatment, he had scars criss-crossing his back. Those scars would never heal, and serve as a permanent reminder to not let anyone rise over him. That moment, he vowed to himself to give Luciana scars that would never heal before killing her. He knew he had to do everything back to her. He could not let this humiliation stand.


    As quickly and as mindlessly as he could, he rose and went with her. Like the first time he hunted, they went down to the downtown core to get some food. Isa had lost track of time, and was somewhat not surprised that they had gone out at night. It was one of the only times they could go out to hunt. They had an easy time of getting their prey, who Isa tore into before they were all dead. Luciana lured them into the alleyway, and Isa jumped behind them and took a huge bite out of their throats before collapsing onto them from exhaustion. After waiting a couple of seconds, Luciana kicked him hard in the leg.


    "Idiot! They were supposed to die a painful death! Fine! Mindless shitpile, go eat! Fucking trash!" She yelled as she walked off in a huff. She had broken Isa''s femur, and without knowing, had caused an open fracture, making a jagged edge of the bone pierce through his skin. Isa set that in a hurry, letting it heal as he dug into his victims. Of one, he quickly ate the legs and arms, leaving the torso, and of the other, he ate the heart, stomach, brain, eyes, toungue, and a bite of the lungs and liver, which he quickly spat out, as both were smokers and drug addicts.


    When Isa was just finishing his food, Luciana returned with a bit of blood splatter on her arms, carrying another arm. She slapped Isa across the face with the arm when she stepped up to him. "Come dog, we''re leaving. Get up."


    She bounded up the side of the building, leaving the arm and corpses Isa made behind. "Bitch, we''re going to stage an attack on a long standing rival of mine. I don''t know why I told you that, it doesn''t matter what I do you. I used to like you, you know?" As she said this, she went behind him and hugged him.


    "Then I found out I could do this to you. I found out you were like me." She dug her long nails deep into Isa''s chest, deep into his muscles. She then pulled away, causing some tissue to rip. A little blood squirted out, which slightly aroused Luciana. She pulled her nails out, and reached across his abdomen with both hands and deeply scratched him, making an ''X'' with her hands, causing two deep sets of furrows to be etched into his abdomen. Her hands were slowly getting bloody. As she was doing this whole thing, she took a huge bite of his shoulder, and started sucking his blood. "What makes this better is the fact that you can''t do anything back to me."


    Isa stood like a statue the whole time she did this whole thing to him. Feeling her press into him, feeling her nipples in his back, feeling her hardening member on his leg, feeling her hands on his front, feeling her bite into him and moan really erotically into his shoulder, nearly pushed him over the edge. He almost turned on her there and took her hard. Instead, he stood there. Doing nothing, waiting for her to finish. After a couple of minutes, she did, and drew some symbols into the air, her horns and her hand glowing. With a gut-wrenching feeling, they were suddenly in a new place.


    They were standing just inside a gate on a cobblestone road leading up to an immense mansion. Isa bet that there were upwards of 50 rooms. It was three floors high above ground, was around 100 metres in length on the face side, and was coloured a light brown, with dark brown roofing and shutters. It had a large portico with 12 white greek-style columns, with intricate carvings near the top, 6 on each side, about 10 metres apart from eachother. The driveway led up to the portico with a large loop that had a garden in the centre. The garden was massive, with three trees included within it. There were all kinds of flowers, including out of season flowers like Daffodils and Tulips. Isa and Luciana stood about 200 metres from the entrance of the house. They began to walk towards it.


    Suddenly, Luciana pulled Isa off into one of the bushes on the side of the road. "We''re here to kill everyone, you know. There''s a lot of people in there. I need you to go crazy on those people... Kill them for me?"


    Isa knew that he couldn''t rebel at this very second. His hands were tied. He had to kill everyone. As this dawned on him, Luciana drew some more strange symbols in the air, and waved them onto Isa''s chest. The second they touched his skin, His vision turned red. He knew he had to break something, he knew he had to rip limb from limb. He knew he had to beat something to a pulp, to slice, to tear, to eviscerate.


    Isa let out a huge roar, alerting everyone of his presence. All around him, the air was shimmering like a mirage from the heat coming off of his bare skin as he charged at the mansion. His dash lasted for only a few seconds before he jumped at a distance of around ten metres and blew the hardwood double doors off their hinges. His feet left cracks in the doors, and splinters flew when the hinges were ripped out and where the deadbolt lock broke. The doors flew for five more metres and struck a guard in the head and chest, shattering his ribcage and crushing him beneath them. Incedentally, this is also where Isa landed. He reached down and ripped out the nearly dead guard''s throat.


    Isa straightened triumphantly, threw his head back, and roared a challenge to the whole house. The first to come was a guard, onto whom Isa simply jumped onto, feet landing on either shoulder. He grabbed the guard''s head and pulled up. The head and most of the spine came out with it. Several more guards came running at the sound of his roar, and only just entered the room, and by then, Isa had clubbed them all to death with the head and spine of the first guard. Of the five that entered the atrium, 3 died with their heads bashed in, and the other two had their chests caved in by the skull. At the end of that battle, the Isa''s club had broken, and brain matter could be seen dripping from the cracks.


    Yet still Isa wasn''t done. He knew there were more people to kill. In his rage, he simply barreled through multiple walls while hunting anything living by their scent. Whenever he found another person, he would leap onto them, knocking them over, and either taking a bite out of their necks, shoving his hands through their sternum and opening their chests, or if he pounced onto their backs, he did his best to rip their spines from their backs. One during his rampage he gored someone, but decided to not repeat that maneuver because he got blood in his eyes. There were a few people in the mansion that gave him trouble, but his berzerker-like rampage gave even his weakened muscles the strength to overpower them all. Only one person was able to actually retaliate to his savagery, blinking away and getting a hit onto Isa. He wasn''t able to do much more before Isa removed him of his heart.


    Once Isa had finally slain all the inhabitants of the mansion, he was able to exit his rage, the symbols evaporated and he took notice of where he was. The final room he ended up in was an expensive looking study, the shelves filled with old books with titles he couldn''t understand. The main thing that caught his attention were the files open on his last victim''s desk. What he found made him seethe with even more rage towards Luciana than ever before.


    She was trying to use him to kill his twin sister he thought to be dead.

 update

    If any of you even see this, cool.


    One thing I''ve always struggled with is drive, and I haven''t even looked at the longhand for 2 years almost. But seeing as im a young man who is better than stagnation, im going to try and change this.


    As such: I''m going to be rewriting this whole thing (2 chapters LOL) and I''m going to be getting into a bimontly schedule, which I''m actually going to try and follow... And yes, thats a promise.Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.


    As I was typing that last line, I thought to myself, "I should cover my ass and say ''no promises''" but then I knew, just knew, that I''d never upload if I said that.


    So here''s to an actual release schedule, starting this month, this weekend (9th Nov 2019). I hope to see some of you here(?).


    P.S. I don''t actually know where I''ll be releasing the updated version just yet, so I''ll post a link in a follow-up chapter to this one.
