《Gabriel "The Bastard Son"》Inside The Cult
Advertisement
Gabriel waited at the rooftop of a building nearby the storage house and waited for the right time to get inside, lighting one cigarette after the other he almost finished two packs, he was anxious about what
he was going to see once he was inside, if the rumors are true the leader of the cult should be the same as him, even though Gabriel now knew that he was a half-breed between demon and angel thanks to Mak he had
no clue about his lineage, who were his parents and why he never met them, now possessing the power of Mind Read from Warren he was able to get information from other people easily, he was able to take full
control of this power from the time he spent training after he left Kevin and Mak behind, he never used it though, Gabriel never felt the need to read someone's mind.Mak and Carmen awaited their chance as well,
they stayed close to the storage house until it was time for the gathering of the members, it was almost time when Gabriel noticed the girl he had met earlier...
Gabriel-(What is that stupid girl doing here?I told her to stay away, how did she even find out about this place?I killed the guy for sure.)
Gabriel-(This is going to get messy, I should put the mask on when I head inside, can't let her see my face before the show.)
So Gabriel put on his mask, the symbol of the Faceless Hunter, the mask that has brought fear and death to many creatures and people alike, as was almost ready to jump down from the top of the building he saw
someone else, someone he did not recognize but still felt like a familiar face...
Gabriel-(Is that guy her boyfriend?Nah too old for that, her father?Who would let their child in a cult for fuck sake?Strange... I feel like I know that guy but I can't recall his face at all.)
Mak-Are you ready Carmen?
Carmen-Yeah, should we go inside?
Mak-It's time, take care.
Carmen-Aye sir.
Gabriel's supernatural hearing caught the name of the girl...
Gabriel-(Carmen huh?Cute name for a cute girl, I should get down from here and get inside as well.)

Mak and Carmen went to the front door of the storage house, it was a rusty, heavy metal door with latch, when Mak tried to open the door a weird looking man came close to him, he was skinny with a weird haircut
that looked like a bowl was over his head, he wore a striped shirt with baggy jeans and a pair of nerdy glasses, he grabbed the latch of the door as well and helped Mak open it.
Mak-Thanks.
Carmen-Thank you sir.
Jerry-Hi my name is Jerry.
Mak-Nice to meet you, Jerry.
Carmen-Nice to meet you, I am Carmen and this is my....father, Mak.
Jerry-You are new right?I am new here as well, I heard the Rebellion is amazing.
Mak-Yes, we are new.Do you know what's about to happen inside?
Jerry-To be honest, I have no idea.I am afraid we will have to pass a test.
Carmen-Test?
Jerry-Can I stick with you two?I don't feel comfortable by myself.
Carmen-Yeah, sure.
Jerry-Thank you honey...
Mak looked straight into Jerry's eyes with a mad look.
Mak-Honey?
Jerry-Sorry, sorry I didn't mean to...uh....sorry.
Mak-You will stay close to me.
Jerry-Yes sir!Sorry, sir...
Mak-(What a pussy).
Carmen-(I can hear you, that's not very nice).
Mak-(Look at him).
Carmen-(It's true he doesn't look like it, but he could prove a threat).
Mak-(This idiot?Not a chance.)
Jerry-Shall we go inside?
Mak-I give the orders!
Jerry-Yes sir!Sorry, sir...
Mak-(See?)
Carmen-(Ok.)Let's go inside.
Mak-Yes.
So, Mak, Carmen and Jerry went inside the storage house, the place was completely different from the outside,thick white curtains decorated the windows,a huge chandelier came down from the ceiling with dozens
of lit candles, a red carpet seperated the room in two sections where people started gathering leaving the carpet some sort of a path that leads to a wooden stage that stood a bit higher than the floor, in the middle
of the stage stood a microfone and a medium sized speaker was attached to it, behind the microfone was a plastic stool apparently for someone to sit and give a speach to the people that had gathered, Mak,Carmen

and Jerry picked a spot and stood there waiting.Gabriel was still on the rooftop of the next building,once he was certain that no one was nearby he jumped down from the seven story building and went close to the
metal door,he opened the door and went inside, once he was inside he saw Carmen's face and immediately went to the opposite side of the group,he was wearing his mask but even so he didn't want to go close to her
so she would recognize him from before,their last meeting wasn't the most pleasant after all but Gabriel intended to destroy the whole place in a few minutes, he couldn't let himself harm a cute girl so he wanted to
make it look like she escaped once things went south.Staying away from her guaranteed that she wouldn't fall victim to any collateral damage that might occur.After a couple of seconds of silence, one man came up
to the stage and turned on the microphone...
Myles-Hello, everyone!Some of you have come before to our gatherings but for those who are new here, my name is Myles.
Myles-You must be wondering who exactly I am, so without any further ado...I am the voice of our Lord!
Myles-Our lord!The person that I am going to teach you about this very evening...
Gabriel-(What a joke.)
Mak-(Bloody moron.)
Myles-...is the man that rules over everything in this world, the one true god that stands above all else.
Random man-Why does he stand above all else?
Myles-I am glad you asked, our lord isn't someone that only appears in books and stories, our Lord has come to earth himself to show us the path of the light, our Lord can muster the powers of light and fire, our Lord
has let us witness his powers, unlike any other god that you have been told about.
Mak-Where is he right now?
Myles-Sadly, our Lord isn't present right now, our Lord has accepted the task to help others using his amazing powers...
Gabriel-(Why the fuck am I here then?That's the guy I wanted to see.)
Mak-How do we know he even exists?How can we trust what you are saying?
Myles-I see we have some people with disbelief, very well then.Are you from this town my brother?
Mak-I am from a nearby town.
Myles-Good enough.You and every other new person in here listen well...You probably know our lord by the name "Faceless Hunter"!
Gabriel-(What.The.Fuck.)
Mak-(Huh...So the Faceless Hunter and the cult leader is the same person, Carmen's dream was on spot.)
Mak-Carmen.
Carmen-Yes.
Mak pointed to his head...
Carmen-(Yes?)
Mak-(We have to get out of here.)
Carmen-(Why?)
Mak-(If the Faceless Hunter is the cult leader, we need to go back to the bar and find him, then we can ask him if he knows anything about Gabriel.)
Myles-The man, the legend, the god that has come to our side, I have personally witnessed his tremendous powers when he had helped my family with a dire situation.My wife had recently acquired a house from her
passed father that was haunted by evil spirits.The Faceless Hunter then came to us and helped us exorcise the evil with his holy powers!
Gabriel-(He must be talking about the fake ghosts)
Myles-He unleashed a bright flash of light that cleansed the house from the spirits and brought us peace!
Gabriel-(I had no idea at the time that his wife lied about it so I used "Holy Flash" without thinking.)
Myles-He asked for no reward!That's how a true god operates!
Gabriel-(Bullshit!She offered to sleep with me.)
Myles-He has helped many others after me and he will continue to do so!
Gabriel-(If.They.Pay.With.Money!)
Myles-I have already sent men to deal with the blasphemous bartender that has kept us our lord!He will soon be with us!
Gabriel-(What?)Ok, that's ENOUGH!
Gabriel jumped from his spot and landed on top of the stage, these people have clearly gone insane and they would cause trouble if left alone, the bartender would only be the beginning, Gabriel had to put an end
to this misunderstanding, before it brings pain to more people, he was now face to face with Myles and everyone in the room recognized the mask of the famous Faceless Hunter.
