《The Legacy of the Assassin [DROPPED]》 Prologue: The Legacys Unknown Future In an isolated cell with no windows and no light, a young boy is quivering in a corner of the cell with his hands on his ears. The child tries to block the screeching and desperate cries from his parents next to his cell as the sound is echoing pass through a small opening on the metal door, but proves to be pointless as he can still hear the cries. ¡°Don¡¯t you dare touch my wife you son of a bitch!¡± (???) ¡°Hmmm? But isn¡¯t she too beautiful to be married to a peasant like you? With such a great looking ass and nice looking pairs as well.¡±(???) ¡°Kyaaa!¡±(???) ¡°Mother fucker! I¡¯ll kill you!¡±(???) As the sound of struggling continues, a sound of surprise came through and then the sound of a body dropping came afterwards. ¡°*Gasp*¡± (???) ¡°SAM! NOOOO!!!¡± (???) ¡°*Gasp* Mother fucker¡­¡± (Sam) ¡°*Gasp* Maria¡­ *Gasp* you need to *Gasp* Use it now¡­ *Gasp* Get Jack *Gasp* Out of here and both of you *Gasp* be safe ¡­¡± (Sam) ¡°No¡­ Sam! Don¡¯t leave me *Hic*¡± (Maria) ¡°*Gasp*¡­ Tell Jack¡­ *Gasp* I¡¯m sorry and that¡­. *Gasp* I love you both very¡­ very much¡­¡± (Sam) As the final breath escaped the man¡¯s mouth, his eye¡¯s gently closed, signaling that his life is at its very end. ¡°*Hic* Sam¡­ *Hic*¡± (Maria) ¡°Ugh¡­ Such a mopey mood, how dare you ruin my fun you peasant¡­¡± (???) ¡°Fine, I¡¯ll just have fun with this beauty of yours all day long. I¡¯m getting bored playing with that peasant anyways.¡± (???) ¡°*Sniffle* no you won¡¯t get to use me as a toy¡­¡± (Maria) ¡°What the he-¡°(???) A big explosion destroyed the young boy¡¯s cell wall, exposing him to bright lights. As the light dimmed down, the boy sees a scene of horror, his father had been stabbed in the chest with a menacing looking dagger and room full of splattered intestines. He then sees his mother in the middle of the bloody room with her waist length, braided, brown hair. She looked like a pale goddess that could bring any man to their knees with only a stare from her emerald green eyes. The young boy in shocked looked towards his mother seeing that her skin isn¡¯t meant to be pale and knew what was going on. Even if he was young he had an intellect of a young adult, reason being that he was born into a special race. His eyes started tearing as he knew that he was about to lose another family member. His mother seeing that her son was starting to cry, she rushed over to him to comfort him. ¡°Shhh¡­ there, there my child¡­¡± (Maria) She said in a low, gentle voice. As she knew she needed to get him out of this horrid dungeon, she used teleportation magic to teleport into a forest. However, it seemed that her teleportation magic took all of her energy away causing her to collapse. The boy seeing this rushed to his mother to assist her up but couldn¡¯t with his small body and weak muscles. Knowing that he couldn¡¯t help his mother he started to cry. ¡°Jack¡­¡± Maria said in the same gentle voice, but more hoarse. ¡°Jack¡­ I¡¯m sorry, please forgive mommy and daddy for leaving you here¡­ But please don¡¯t cry, don¡¯t say anything. I know it is selfish of me and I¡¯m sorry.¡± (Maria) Stolen novel; please report.The little boy, Jack, wiped his tears in order to stop his mother from apologizing, it was his fault in the first place that he got his family into this position. He did as mother said, and continued to listen. ¡°Jack¡­ Mommy wants to know, have you forgiven us? Do you love us? It¡¯s our fault for putting you into this abnormal and cruel life. We wanted to live happily together¡­¡± (Maria) ¡°Jack nodded his head furiously, trying his best to hold in his sorrow and smile. Showing that he is satisfied with his family, so that she could stop apologizing. ¡°My child¡­ My dear, dear child¡­ I was only afraid to hear you say it, that you hated us¡­ and that you blamed us for creating you¡­ Please¡­ Don¡¯t run away again¡­ Okay?¡± (Maria) Jack, again nodded his head furiously, still trying to hold his smile. ¡°Good, you are such a good boy¡­ I¡¯m proud of you¡­ *Cough*¡± (Maria) Maria coughed out small droplets of crimson blood onto the ground. ¡°It seems that¡­ My time is almost near¡­ Jack please stay strong¡­ Know that¡­ Dad and I loves you very much¡­ Okay?¡± Jack, again, nods his head furiously and starts to tear up, yet, maintaining a smile. ¡°Good¡­ I¡¯ll be going to meet your dad¡­ Stay strong¡­ And live for the rest of us¡­¡± (Maria) Maria then smiles at her Jack and gently closes her eyes. At that very moment, the Forest darkened as Jack is sitting beside his mother. Not moving a single muscle, yet still smiling. Tears then dropped from Jack¡¯s eyes and then turned to overflowing tears. Jack didn¡¯t move away from his mother, and still maintaining his smile and silence as he tried his best to stop the over flowing tears. Jack was now all alone, with no one but Mother Nature herself. As Mother Nature wept with over pouring rain and mourns with Jack for his lost. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey guys! JackOfAllTrades here! This is just my first time writing a story (Hella fun) but I want to improve, there fore as you, the community, must layeth the smacketh down on me with criticism o that I can get better now! Don''t get me wrong, I''m no masochist (I''m more of a sadist person), So I''ll probably (At most secretly) make fun of your comment(s). Also, I might change some previous chapters and tags around (I know unprofessional) so that I can improve it to readers'' liking. Of course depending if I like it as well because its my story. So make some damn good suggestions and comments so I can improve. Also thank you for taking your time in reading my first story as I am grateful for your time. Now how the fuck do I bow so that I can fucking express my gratitude... This is starting to make me itch cuz I seriously cannot express my thanks without bowing... Help me... T_T Update time already!? JackOfAllTrades'' Note: Yo, just dropping this here as to also mention very important sht thats about to go down: 1: I''d like to note that I am a high school student currently (11th Grade RN) so depending how tired I am from school, work, and SAT Prep Classes, I might make a shtty chapter, I might make a good one, Hell I might not care to post up a chapter cuz I''m that fking sadistic. So in short, please do put up with the cringe that may occur in the future, I will try my best to re-edit these stories as I have stated before at the end of the prologue. PS I have no editor so I might have no time at all to fix or to edit my stories. Don''t take this as, "Oh please do have pity on lil'' ol'' me" Cuz I''m not a fking wimp like dat. Keep on commenting and suggesting... Suggestions. 2: This post has a poll (Oh My God a poll, hopefully I don''t fuck up this sht as well), as you may know, the prologue was something I felt like was unique because you don''t see it stories much. Basically, the story was told through the child''s POV. In the isolated cell with nothing but sound, I thought it might be cool to give readers the ability to imagine the scene themselves for a bit with little hints here and there, it was only a test run as I''d like to see how you guys think about it. But currently, I know that people are too lazy (don''t worry I would be to) to create their own scene in their mind, so I''d like to give you guys power whether to never do it again, or you like it, or some toher option I may put up. Unauthorized use: this story is on Amazon without permission from the author. Report any sightings.Anyways thats it for now, I''m gonna work on the next chapter as I''m imagining it from my head right now, so I gotta hurry before I forget, see you all in the next chapter! Chapter I: An Unexpected Situation JackOfAllTrades: Yo still trying to familiarize with RRL''s format, god this is so confusing.... I can''t even fking indent, maybe there was a guide on how to use this format and I''m just being a fktard idiot who was too lazy to check... [th_116_.gif] Also found the smilies option! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Jack''s POV) I couldn''t feel anything anymore... My parents had both left me by myself, but I couldn''t bare any harsh feelings towards them but towards myself as I had gotten our family into this kind of situation, if I had not ran away... If I had not acted like a selfish person... We still might have lived like a normal family... It would have been an impossible goal to reach, but we could''ve still made it worked. After six years of harsh living however, I could not live with it and tried to escape reality by escaping home. Why? Why did I have to? Is it because of my temperament as a child it would have eventually happened? If so, why in the living hell does fate have to toy with my life to have it end this way!? As my dried up eyes began to swell up again, I closed my eyes to reminiscence the past of my mom''s soothing voice and my dad''s hearty laugh. It was as perfect as I begin to imagine us as a normal family living a perfect life, with no hardships or troubles at all. Only if¡­ If I was stronger, maybe I could have protected my parents. If I could have killed that human sack of shit, they would have still lived... Its human¡¯s greed that killed my parents¡­ Only if they didn¡¯t exist in the first place! ¡°Do you want power to seek revenge?¡± (???) Huh? Did I just hear a voice? I looked around in confusion as I heard a seductive voice echoing around me. ¡°Do you or do you not want power to rid this world of the things that took away your parents, the ones who shattered your dreams and aspirations of having a normal family?¡± (???) I-I do¡­ I want power¡­ I want power and rid this world of these horrid creatures that dare take everything away from me! ¡°Good¡­ The only thing you have to do¡­ Is to let go¡­ Let go of that light inside of you, and let the darkness consume you¡­¡± (???) ¡°Wait! Don¡¯t listen to her!¡± (???) All of the sudden another voice comes out of nowhere, but it was a different voice as it sounded pure and bright. As I didn¡¯t have any effort to say anything, I looked around again in confusion and the pure voice said something as to answer my question I was asking myself in my head. ¡°Jack, if you let yourself get consumed by the darkness how are you going to live!? Aren¡¯t you trying to live for your parents as you promised to your mom that you would!?¡± (???) Wh-What? How does she know about my promise to my mom? And how would I die from gaining power? Again, as if reading my mind she answered me. ¡°If you let yourself get consumed by darkness you will burn yourself out as potential in dark magic amplifies the effect of your emotions and strength by a thousand fold. However, your body can¡¯t handle that amount of power as you will implode and will create a world of chaos.¡± (???) A world of chaos? Just from me exploding? ¡°Yes, for you hold a dangerous item in yourself, Pandora¡¯s Box. Fortunately, your affinity for light magic suppresses your dark magic, so if you were to let darkness consume you, you will plunge this world into chaos.¡± (???) ¡°Tch¡­ I guess my plans are ruined now¡­¡± (???) ¡°Lily! Where are trying to go!? You¡¯re trying to kill the only life source we have! And For what? Just because you don¡¯t like humanity!?¡± (???) ¡°Shut it Therese, you wouldn¡¯t understand anyways! Jack, do not listen to her! Get rid of the filthy creatures that took everything from you! Make them suffer! You understand! The price of revenge and power is high! It always is! So take the chance now and strike when the iron is hot! If you don¡¯t do it now! You¡¯ll eventually die without exacting revenge!¡± (Lily) This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. ¡°Jack, there are other ways to get strong, don¡¯t take the easy way out! Live! Live on for your parents! Remember your promise! Don¡¯t be a person your mother wouldn¡¯t want you to be!¡± (Therese) What my mother wouldn¡¯t want me to be? What did she want me to be? A caring person who would forgive anything and everyone, just like her. Even if she was discriminated and exiled, she had forgiven the people who put her into the situation. But in order to do that, I have to be strong and yet, the promised power is in right in front of me. So, what do I do? ¡°If its power you want, I¡¯ll promise you power as well, however, it depends on your effort, as I only can offer you power ten times less then what Lily is offering, but power that can grow immensely after it is trained to its fullest.¡± (Therese) And I get to live? Live long enough to fulfil my mother¡¯s promise. Even with power that¡¯s ten times less, it¡¯s enough power to also get my dad¡¯s corpse back from that wretched place and have proper burial for him and mother! But there has to be a catch as well¡­ ¡°Of course, I wasn¡¯t planning to hide anything from you¡­ The only way to obtain your powers is¡­ By purging your memories and emotions from yourself¡­¡± (Therese) Wait what? I¡¯m sorry I think I just imagined something horrible sounding coming from that voice for a second. ¡°No it¡¯s real, you didn¡¯t imagine that.¡± (Therese) Hold on! At least be discreet about it! ¡°I already said that I wasn¡¯t going to hide anything from you, however, the side effect of you purging all of your memories and emotions is quite devastating as you will experience immense pain at random times. The reason being is that your mind is trying to recall of these memories at some point and would overwork itself to find these missing memories.¡± (Therese) But¡­ My memories are the only thing I have of my family¡­ If I lose that then what is the point in living!? ¡°Do not fear Jack, you have the ability to gain them back, as some parts of your memories can never leave the brain. Depending how deep of impression the memory was made into your brain, you can¡¯t lose it. For example, a trauma or fear.¡± (Therese) I pondered about this, then it came to me, what do these voices get out of this? Why go this far to help me? ¡°Tch¡­ Didn¡¯t you already hear us? You¡¯re an intellectual five year old! We need a life source! And you¡¯re the one supplying us with it! If you went and had gotten yourself killed, we die as well!¡± (Lily) They did mention a life source, but why use me as the source for it? ¡°Well, it¡¯s because of your high talent in Dark and Light magic that the magic themselves started manifesting into living beings but since you¡¯re only five years old, they can only make us two. Yet with such little experience in creating actual beings, we could only manifest ourselves into voices for now.¡± (Therese) ¡°Forget it! He needs to make a decision now! What will it be Jack! Me! Or Therese!?¡± (Lily) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- End Note: All to let you know, my end notes are usually made when I finished editing my posts. For now I''ll just say, that yeah this maybe the one of my ''bad'' chapters as I edited this hardheartedly and that there may be some (or a lot of) plot holes, if you do see it please tell so I can fix it immediately, alright with that done back to torturous school work.
