《StoryMania!》World on ( part 4 )
Advertisement
Ahhh, has it been one year already?
How time passes so fast is still a mystery...
Well, actually not that much of a mystery in this day and age anymore, but besides that, time really flew away...
All but one of my friends have given up on me. And in reality, I should be thankful I have a friend that didn't give up on me, after one year of near complete seclusion from the outside world.
But it was all worth it because this is the day, I THINK, I will be able to do it...
First, create the complete diagram in your head.
Then, like a picture, crystallize it.
Afterward, like a newborn channel, follow it.
Feel it.
Ahh.. till this part it's so easy.
Now, sustain it.
~~~~~~~
An hour passed with me in the same place, still not breaking through.
I can feel some energy, flowing through the ways the diagram shows,
I can feel it but...
I can't control it, and as always, I will fail at the most critical juncture, the one that has been blocking my way for the past month.
OR NOT!
Like heck I'm gonna loosen up this time. No, this is the final time. I'm passing through all this torture!
Ahhh, has my personality gone through a change?
I used to be so calm too...
I guess everyone gets that when they’ve been doing what I am.
And here I was saying I wouldn't let myself get sidetracked...
~~~~~~~
I'm so close. One more,
One more minute!
Let that oddly familiar energy, complete the diagram for the first time!
~~~~~~~
...
It’s done.
Finally...
Well, that was somewhat anticlimactic.
Now, what is supposed to happen?
The diagram is properly formed inside my head.
To be honest, I didn't actually think that it would literally form in my head like he said it would, but it saves me from doing it a second time.
Am I going to explode?
Oh god!
Am I seriously going to die after passing through all of this?
Ahh... why didn't I even think of that.
I mean the rock exploded too, so what will happen to me?!?!
...
Meh, no need to be getting hysterical.
I guess it will show up as time passes.
Let me get a good sleep first.
Ahh, I feel so accomplished.
Who needs superpowers and strange magic when you have this...
Super powers...
Oddly familiar energy...
Could it be?
Nah...
"Explode!"
No fireballs coming out of my hand...
"Time stop!"
Can't feel anything weird here either...
Wasn't I supposed to feel my energy, like waking up something sleeping in your body, and kind of controlling it?
Why nothing?
Darn, guess I will figure it out after sleeping...
Falling on the floor asleep and catching a cold isn't exactly the most fun thing to do... I know from experience.
~~~~~~~
Oh bed, oh sweet, sweet bed.
You have no idea how much I've missed you.
Those comfortable pillows of yours,
The mattress that drowns all matters to sleep.
My little good room, that although revised after the explosion, is still the best.
~~~~~~~
Ahh, I feel like an atomic bomb, brimming with energy, only hoping a nuclear explosion doesn't happen.
A good night's rest always fixes your problems, except when it doesn't.
I guess I could go out, take a breath of fresh air, and check up on my still remaining friends... friend.
'opening the door, this time I was prepared'
Hah, eat sunglasses you bastard of a sun.
That felt both childish and nice.
...
Was nature always this beautiful?
What is this flying insect? So beautiful...

Oh, yea a butterfly...
Well, that was embarrassing.
Walking for a few minutes I found the shade I had gone previously to... it feels like it was just yesterday, but it was like 4 or 5 months ago...
After I stopped reminiscing the past, I took out my phone, to call his number.
Now, what was it again... shit... I think I have it saved on my phone...
Welp... next time I meet him, I will ask him for his number.
I don't have anything much to do now that I think of it.
Going back to gaming after so long would feel weird, so a pass to that.
I think imma just take a walk around the city.
I have money after all.
~~~~~~~
Darn, nice restaurant.
I grow hungry just by seeing the menu...
I have decided, this will become my next best location, aside from my home.
Calling the waitress to give my order I waited.
And waited...
And waited...
And-
Oh screw this, it's been an hour already...
At the second I was about to get up and complain the waitress came with a bunch of plates, and my order amongst them.
Finally, I was about to-
And as I expected her to give me my food,
She took a sharp turn and went and gave it to someone else, that had placed his order 10 minutes ago.
It can't be that they forgot me... right?
Like no way...
"Ermm, what about my order?" I politely asked the waitress, suppressing my boiling anger.
"It's still getting prepared, I'm really sorry for the wait, it will be done in a few minutes." She answered me with an apologetic face, clearly showing understanding towards the customer.
What the heck is she talking about though!?!?
We two had the same order, and I ordered first, but you gave it to him first!
But I guess since it's only a few minutes, I can wait it out.
And so I waited another hour, watching other people getting their orders one after another...
They have to be joking, right?
"You know what, imma leave. You don't even pay me attention. I will post a negative critic and be over with it."
I spoke with a big voice, but not big enough so I would disturb those eating. After all, I didn't have anything against them.
I stood up from my chair, and as if taking that as a signal, my order finally arrived.
I sited down once more and muttered under my breath "finally."
I hope this pasta was worth the wait.
Hoping was something I could do, but ignoring the taste was impossible.
I waited so long, just to eat something that in all the seriousness tastes like shit?!?!
Nope!
I said and stood up preparing to leave.
"Sir, your bill" the waitress called back to me.
Oh so now they remember me...
Actually, I wouldn't want to pay for all the mistreatment, but this was a high-class restaurant, and I also didn't want to raise a fuss...
So I went to pay... only to find out my global card wasn't accepted, and that they were going to call the police on me...
Honestly, I felt like killing one or two of the people here, but in whatever rationality I had left, I took a stack of money to pay.
Leaving the restaurant, the sun was already starting to set.
My good mood from completing the diagram was ruined by that restaurant.
But what they said about my Global Card raises some concern.
I guess I will have to check it out.

~~~~~~~
"All of you, raise your hands in the air, and fall to the ground! This is an armed race, and we will shoot anyone and anybody who dares to pull something funny!" Some guys with clown masks on their faces yelled loudly.
Oh, wait where was I?
Yea, trying to check my Global Card...
So why do these kinds of things keep happening to me...
Still, in this day and age, all robbers are bound to get caught, so I will obey just normally.
"Hey, you!" One of the armed men spoke, pointing to me.
I stood there confused, and I honestly didn't quite like what was happening.
"Yes, you! Stand up you mongrel!" He once again spoke, this time raising his gun at me.
"You, my dear friend have been selected among countless others to represent us... in the otherworld."
Suddenly everything slowed down to a tenth of the time.
My pupils dilated to the size of a needle’s head.
I saw him raising his gun, and getting ready to shoot.
My brain worked in overdrive!
Suddenly, as an instinct,
I tried to raise my arms, bolt out of the place, escape the incoming bullet.
*Bang*
The shot just grazed my face.
I could still move, I could still walk.
But it was to no avail, I would die.
There was to be no escaping bullets at this range or any range in general.
But I hadn't given up on my fate.
Unconsciously, I tried to release something. A hidden power, MY hidden power.
This time though, I didn't try to uncontrollably unleash it like a retard but passed the strange energy in the diagram, where it made a complete circle in a second, and as if waiting for me to release it, I felt it charming.
My blood boiling.
My superpower!
"DEMONIFICATION" I yelled by instinct.
*Click*
In the second it took for the bullet to reach me, my skin had already turned red.
*Bang*
I bore the full impact of the shot, but strangely I didn't die. And I felt an uncontrollable anger.
Rage!
As if it was natural to me, my nails turned into claws, and I shredded that man into pieces.
That made the attention of the rest turn into me.
"You- You demon!" One of them stuttered, and raised his gun, along with the others to shoot at me.
Too bad for them I was faster and stronger.
In one second 5 dead bodies laid on the floor, and I was standing there.
Unmoving, not bothered in the slightest by the blood or the people I had killed.
I felt it was justified.
My rage did it.
And I wasn't done!
But first, my Global Card needed to be looked after.
It simply contained my entire life savings. Nothing too serious in not being able to access it...
As I walked towards the bank clerk to inquire about my Card,
She spoke with a shaky voice and trembling legs as if the ground around her was abandoning her.
"Er- how could I he-help me! Erm, you."
Maybe cutting to the chase after that event wasn't the smartest thing, and it wasn't my turn to show up, but the longer I stood here, the more I was afraid for their mental health.
Maybe I should stop with that form, but to begin with, I have no idea how I even activated it, much less deactivate it...
Even so, as I calmed down, the form started to disappear, and my body was starting to return to its previous state.
That was until I heard what the problem with my card was.
"So you are saying, that because of suspicious activity in my bank account, as well as my inactivity, they decided to temporarily lock it up. However, seeing it as it is, this is a permanent suspend." I said calmly.
Honestly, this happened to me a tad bit too many times... Losing all the money I had ever worked for.
All these incidents...
I grew silent.
Seeing this the clerk also relaxed.
But she shouldn't have...
"Why!" I spoke with an authoritative tone.
"Eh-!" She exclaimed, being surprised by my sudden question and it's tone
However, I knew that she couldn't give me the answer I wanted.
My body starting to heat up, I asked once more, despite knowing the futility "WHY!"
I started shaking.
Once more an uncontrollable anger surged up within me.
*Boom*
She was dead.
Just like that...
A human life was lost.
At this moment, an immense pressure fell down on every human in a radius of 10 miles.
Not a lot of people were within that radius as most of them had all been shoved out by the police, trying to isolate us, to prevent any further incidents.
The only people in that radius was the police, the 'upholders' of justice.
*Crash*
Human bones started to fracture and people fainted.
Soon, every human other than me in half of the pressure's radius was dead.
I knew I had caused that, but I didn't care.
*Anger*
For my injustice.
*Hate*
For the corruption pervading all of us.
*Annoyance*
At the scumbags that were still alive.
Calmly walking outside the bank, I was showed the scenery of more than 300 dead cops surrounding the area.
I guess there might have been some important guys in that bank, else there is no way so many would have had been rounded up just for this.
I just looked at them indifferently.
Walking further in the town, now I knew what I had to do with that sudden power.
Honestly, the whole situation was turning south pretty fast, but nothing mattered since I had the power.
I readied my stance, lowered my center of gravity, and
*Boom*
I dashed out cracking the floor below me, in pretty much car speeds.
...
10 minutes later, I was surrounded by many people.
Normal people and gangsters alike.
I always wanted to do that.
"On the count of 3, whoever isn't a piece of shit like them, fuck off and run out of here," I said, pointing to the gangsters.
"3" some people started leaving, not wanting to get involved in whatever fight was going to break out.
"2" More people rushed to spectate.
"1" Time was up.
"Die!" A gangster yelled and rushed to me with an iron club.
In a split second, my hand was on his now broken neck.
Idiotic spectators didn't quite understand what was going to happen, but some smarter fellows were starting to leave.
"All of you, KNEEL!"
And as I said that, not only the gangsters kneel, but everyone nearby me.
"I'm starting to have fun here" I spoke with a sudden cheerful grin.
"Now die!"
*Crack*
And more than 100 bodies laid there on the floor, unmoving.
Every year, countless people lose their lives for no reason at all.
This time, they lost it because of me.
Even though, even though I lost empathy and sympathy, and many more human emotions, I still can't accept what I have done.
What I have done to these people... to so many innocents.
In fact, right now I'm the same as those greedy bastards that stole my brother's life.
Always trying to steal from someone or anyone, anything they have.
Is that because of my nature?
Well if that's so, imma just have to go against it!
...
Yea, the world just has way too many scum.
Imma just gives it a rough clean up.
A demon, serving justice.
*AAAAH*
*Fuu*
I was breathing hard.
An earth splitting pain, rushed in my head, rendering me unmovable.
I have never heard of something like that happening because of overusing your powers.
Or that's what I assume it to be.
I need to get away. FAST!
I turned into an alleyway and disappeared, into the crestfallen darkness.
~~~~~~~
"What have I done!?!!" Tears filling up my eyes.
"A monster... an ally of Justice? Nice imagination I have..."
I was being totally out of myself.
A normal person couldn't come into the situation so fast, but I knew... I wasn't normal. At least not now.
Yea, the world isn't for me.
I guess gaming now, is only an escape.
I really don't know what else to do though.
It's as if whatever I lived to do was lost... literally.
I can't remember doing anything else other than gaming since my brother's death.
That is aside from stealing some guns and hunting down my brother's killers.
Guess my devil's imagination isn't so bad, huh...
Well, why not try it out?
First things first being able to control my emotions, myself, and re-develope some of the emotions I lost.
Hmmm...
Deaths will follow.
