Alone…
I was always alone.
No one ever loved me, everyone hated me and used me.
I was trash, the scum of the world.
I was made into the scum of the world.
I remember now.
As I delve into the abyss of this familiar feeling of dreadful desperation.
The mold and I are similar, in fact, we are the same.
I now understand why it came to this world with me…
We are the same being at the end…
I remember things clearly now…
Things that I had been trying to not remember.
I was a Bioweapon made by a secret corporation named Nexus Corporations.
I once had parents, but they died before even seeing me grow.
I was grabbed from whenever I was and brought into this laboratory.
Since I was a baby that I was injected with the mold, and since then, it grew with me and became one with me.
The mold.
I don't know where it exactly came from, and what was its purpose.
But from the documents I once read, it was the type of living organism resembling mold found deep within the caves of a jungle in Africa.
The jungle had a large crater, perhaps of many years ago, when this entity… came to Earth.
The mold, perhaps, was not even from our world, a being that came from the stars.
And since I was a child that I was blind to it, forced to fuse with it.
Amongst the many test subjects, I was the first and the most successful.
There were many like me, however.
And all of them died.
I was the first and the most successful, left behind by all those that perished.
I was deemed as a miracle.
They told me that I was the strongest.
The mightiest…
Lies…
The cooperation with the mold was brief, however, as I grew older, it destabilized.
But it wasn't because my body didn't accept it, it was my own mind that developed wrongly.
The scientist constantly tried to stabilize the mold within my body, but I was refusing to cooperate any longer with it.
I didn't understand it, I was scared.
It was a strange being that lived inside me, how would I not be scared?
It slowly began to gain its own consciousness as it took over my brain, and my own mind started to warp, my thoughts became chaotic, and I became a raging beast.
Driven by the constant hate and wrath of being used as a test subject, to being inflicted this constant pain, I freed myself using the mold, and once more, we worked together.
But that's where I became insane.
I embraced the monster I truly was and wreaked havoc.
Many times I had tried to escape, but every time that crimson-eyed man stopped me.
But not that time, when he was not present.
I filled the scientist with the mold, and discovered many abilities, one of them was the power to infect others with it and control their minds, parasitizing them like slaves, they would slowly mutate and become even more monstrous, and sometimes even gaining weird abilities.
I quickly took over the entire corporation, destroyed everything, and escaped at last.
After that, I discovered more.
I was made into a bioweapon by Nexus Corporations, they wanted me to use to create a perfected version of the mold, one that could make any human it infected into a superhuman.
To enjoy all the abilities I had, superhuman strength, virtual immortality, extra sensorial powers, and more.
But it was never completed.
Fools, you don't even know that the burden to acquire all of this power was to let the mold devour your very mind.
To devour your very soul.
Every passing year I felt as if I was turning stranger.
I was suffering from constant pain, constant headaches.
My consciousness drifted in and out, sometimes I didn't realize it, and I had slept for an entire year, while the mold manipulated my body and did what it pleased.
The mold was vicious, it desired revenge, it hated everyone.
But I wanted a family, I wanted to be loved, I didn't want to be hated.
But we could only escape and escape, there was nowhere for us to go.
Nowhere in the world was safe, Nexus Corporations kept chasing us over as if we were their property.
At some point, we crossed the seas and reached a different place.
There, we found a family.
And they welcomed me.
They seemed nice.
But in the end, the mold made it worse, and they feared me.
But the mold told me that no one would fear me if I made them into our kin.
So we infected them and made them into my family.
At that time I thought it was a true family, but they were merely puppets…
After some time, I thought I could live there peacefully.
But it was a lie, I couldn't live peacefully anywhere.
They came to me and caught me off guard.
Somehow, they had designed a special antidote or something.
When they shot me with those bullets, it hurt…
After just a few shots, my entire body began to grow old and withered.
The mold turned completely white and dissipated like ash.
I fell apart into pieces and died.
The last thing I perceived was the scientist taking away my body remains, as they said how it was a pity that I had to die, as I was such a good specimen.
Haha…
Until the end, we were always mere items to them, weren't we?
Indeed, we were.
Another voice resonates into my mind, it is me and not me.
This is the mold.
The mold took over my mind and brain and made a consciousness coping me.
Like this, it is as if there were two of me, we are twins.
But I was way too weak, and I was not able to resist the evil twin.
She won over my body at last and took over my mind as well.
Even after I tried to run away… and to save my…
My…
Who…? Who was I… trying to save?
I… I don't remember…
There is nothing to remember, you are here with me now, and that's all that matters, Miranda.
You are right… You're going to protect me, right?
I will… We are siblings after all.
