Kapitel 57: Chapter 57: The Other me who hates me
*Dagur*
"Imagine being in a forest of dead trees, there is nothing around you. Just fog for miles, everything is white and the air is heavy, even stuffy". The trees seem to stare at you.
- Look at his skin color. It's a monster.
*The mist is so thick that you are afraid to take the slightest step*.
-Don't come near me, filfthy monsters, I'm not your mother.
*You feel alone but at the same time surrounded, but not by friends but by hostile people. Nobody loves you because you were born different.*
-I should have killed you in my belly.
*And this increasingly suffocating, increasingly frightening forest is an integral part of you*.
-Oh good ?
*Until a storm sweeps it away. A storm so strong that even the fiercest tree was uprooted*.
- Devil... Witch...
- It's funny how everyone treats me like that.
*The storm uproots the strongest tree and only one remains. The only one that keeps you going, the only one that you could still cling to*.
-It's your fault. You're the one who brought them here.
-No, I swear.
- Shut up, I trusted you. It's all your fault.
-No, don't go.
* Failling to get help my sister just rushed to the first person she saw hoping to get help. Looking back, I realize that was stupid. Sephora tore her apart like butter and without a shred of remorse. The anger that came over me that day was indescribable*.
-I... I will... Kill them. I will kill them all.
*I growled like a bloodthirsty beast, but I didn't know what kind of danger this new predator represented*.
-So how did you get here? *he asked me*.
*I don't know, everything is grey. The fog is back and I can see the trees again*.
-Yet they were supposed to have been swept away by the storm.
*These are new trees, they look bigger and stronger to me. I doubt a storm will sweep them away*.
-She won't have to because you'll stay in this forest while I'm going to take my revenge.
*Your revenge? Against what*.
-Against those who did this.
*Who are them?*
-The Killicks. They are the ones who made my life hell.
*You are one of them. Besides, I too am one of them*.
- No, I'm not like them, I'm different, I'm...
*Stronger ? Faster, smarter, more bloodthirsty? Angrier*.
-Don't try to confuse me.
*I'm trying to understand you*.
-It's all that woman's fault. Since she came into my life I have been living in perpetual hell.
*She gave me food, shelter, a home, education, strength and power*.
-She tied you to a tree and let one of her friends torture you.
*It made me stronger and immune to torture*.
-She forced you to kill the poor people she had imprisoned in her cellar.
*To make me numb to the pleas of my enemies*.
-She made you raped by multiple people. Man and woman.
*Looking back I don't regret this part of my training, submission through sex is the best way to gain someone's loyalty.*
-But... But you don't realize that she has totally distorted your mind. You're crazy, you're not in your normal state.
*Why are you screaming? I am a Killick all these things are normal in our society. It's rather you that I don't understand. Do you honestly think your life before Sephora was better*.
-She... She wasn't so...
*She sucked. You suffered mockery, spitting and insults for being weaker than you*.
-That was no reason to kill them.
*It's just cowardly talk, you were just weak*.
-DON'T DISRESPECT ME.
*You talk you talk you talk. But as soon as I get out of this forest you're going to have a bad time*.
-DAGUUUUR.
*That voice.... Kaleb? KALEB. HEY KALEB*.
- No need, he can't hear you, I take care of everything and I'm going to kill him.
*I can't see him dying against a coward like you*.
-I'm not a coward. *He said as his eyes lit up*.
*No, no matter how much I looked, we have nothing in common. You've been raving about illogical facts for a while but the truth is you killed those humans a while ago.*
-Eh. No I do not have...
*Don't get distracted or Kaleb will kill me*.
- I am not a murderer I did not want to kill these people.
*Yet you did it and more brutally than me*.
-It was an accident.
*Your anger should have been directed at the Killicks and only the Killicks, instead you let your rage control you like a wild beast*.
-You can talk, you tell me weak but it's your own weakness that made you lose control.
*And you are screaming for revenge like someone possessed but you don't even know who is responsible for your misfortune*.
-Are you blind? Can't you see all the crimes you've committed?
*By this havoc I just felt you got wrecked again*.
-I told you though. You are weaker than Dagur. *Said Kaleb*.
*And that's true*.
-NO IT IS WRONG.
-You think ? *I tell him smiling*.
-What.... The forest?
-Welcome to my forest.
-No way.....
*I hold him by the shoulders and slammed him against the old tree. He tried to struggle but I held him tightly.
- You... Let me go
-Since I was very young, I have always been afraid of the way others look, of what people think of me, of the image I send back and what I represent for them.
-You ?
- And yes originally I was like you. *I say with shaking hands*.
*But I quickly realized that it was useless. I, who thought I was a mistake of nature, had just realized that I had been born in the wrong place*.
-Do you know how happy I was when she hugged me, when she said she loved me and that she was going to take care of me? I'm sure you felt it too.
- I was disgusted yes. She's a cold-blooded killer.
-YOU TOO. Hide your face but that's the difference between you and me. You remain locked in your spiral of hatred. *I knew it by the throat*. You get carried away at the slightest escaland and you just ramble on about the same thing over and over again.
*I could hear Kaleb talking to me but I wasn't sure what he was trying to tell me*.
-Now I have a life, a family and friends, but more importantly I have a purpose.
*My eyes lit up a fiery blue like efrat as I slowly drove it into the tree. Of course he tried to fight back but I stopped him.
-Sephora taught me my true roots and accepted me for who I am. My revenge is turned towards my true enemy and I will moving fowarf until all my enemies are destroyed.
-I... You... Would kill... All of them.
-I wouldn't let an idiot like you screw it up. Disappears. The Other me who hates me.
*I locked him in the tree which let out reddish gleams. The roots then formed a smiling face before changing from a smile to anger*.
-Farewell, brood of Fury.
*Kaleb*.
*Since I was kid I have always tried to make friends. If only one, but the guards were living walls, my dad was cool but he was my dad, Thaarsis was too tough, my mom was too scary, I clearly grew up between 4 walls paralyzed on all sides . So when I saw him thus locked up in his cage, I wanted to free him, but his gaze became hostile the minute he saw me. When I thought I was safe in my room, he bit my arm. The cry that I uttered then was not only fear, it was a cry of distress because I had never felt such a feeling of insecurity*.
-Move out of the way.
*My mother was the first on the room and her first reaction was to want to behead him. I still don't know why, but I intervened*.
-What are you doing ?
-Don't kill him. *I shouted*.
*I still had my arm bleeding and its fangs were deeply embedded in my flesh. Yet as far as I know I wasn't planning on letting her kill him. Maybe he was sick or just crazy, the fact is he was the only boy my age for miles. I wasn't going to let my one chance to make a friend slip away.
- Kaleb move away. Last warning.
*At the same time Dagur's mother entered the room and shouted a word in an incomprehensible language. After which I saw him cower in terror in a corner of the room, crying. My mother and his started arguing and it went on for a long time. After that day I never saw Dagur again. When we saw each other again at the selection I was already someone else I was ashamed to speak to him. And yet he came to see me without embarrassment. He had probably forgotten me but who cares *.
-I will... You... Killeeeer.
*As I held him to the ground this reddish aura finally disappeared, then it suddenly exploded throwing me away. I obviously land on my legs but this time facing the person in front of me as well as the column of Efrat which escaped from him I had a smirk *.
-You finally found your way.
- Wy, you doubted me?
*He rushed at me at a prodigious speed and I did the same. Our two legs crossed in the air as the shock of the impact vibrated every cavity*.
- No doubt it's you. *he said smiling*.
- Obviously. After all the strongest here is me.
-I ask to see.
*Our fists and our feet collided several times then we resumed the distance. Dagur got into a fighting stance, leaning slightly forward. Once again his aura multiplied. It was even bigger and pure silvery blue.*
-You will be served.
*I clenched my fists and let out a scream as my aura covered the other half of the cavity. I felt the ground crackle beneath our feet as Dagur lunged towards me with a sonic boom. I did the same on my turn, all claws out ready to show him what I'm made of*.
-STOP FIGHTING. *Screams Emory*.
-Huh? *I Made surprised*.
*The ceiling suddenly collapsed above our heads, a silhouette appeared at our height. I watched in amazement as Dagur's mouth was hanging open. In fact to see his reaction he seemed to know him. The Killick was obviously an adult and glared at us. He wore a cape covering him from head to toe. We were clearly going to tear him to pieces if he landed between us. But suddenly his hair became bluer, and sort of light blue bands in the shape of a tattoo appeared on his body*.
-Runes? *I said surprised*.
*He grabbed us both by the wrist and make a spin in which he ejected us. Me against a wall and Dagur against the floor where he crashed. The warrior landed just above Dagur whom he stared impressed*.
-Yo.
*End of chapter*
*The storm has passed. Now there is only a magnificent bed of dark blue roses stretching as far as the eye can see. The old tree is dead, there is no longer any reason to stay beside*.
