Chapter 1: The beginning

June 21,2044

[inside a courtroom]

A teenage boy no less than 17 years of age based from his appearance has both his hands cuffed with two police officers by his side eyeing him should he move suspiciously.

Around the boy is hundreds of angry people shouting all kinds of swear words and threats to him.

"THIS BASTARD DESERVES THE DEATH PENALTY FOR HIS CRIMES!!" a man with unkempt beard shouts with veins bulging on his neck.

"Remembering what he had done makes me shiver even now, how can such a devil exist." a middle aged woman said while she looks at the boy with fear.

Meanwhile the target of all this words just reacted as if he didn't hear them, with the boy's expression being one of indifference yet his thoughts are the opposite.

'I deserved to die for my crimes? Then WHY! just why were they released and not punished? When their crimes were more brutal than mine!'

'Me? A devil? Then I must be the kindest devil of all considering what they did.'

*PAK!*

"Silence!!!" with the sound of gavel hitting wood and the words of the judge, the courtroom was suddenly silenced.

"I will now pronounce my verdict to the defendant Alex for his crimes." the judge announced.

The boy or shall we now call Alex is still indifferent even after hearing that the judge will now announce his sentence.

"For killing the lives of 4 college students, defendant Alex P. Leonor will be sentenced to..." Everyone inside the courtroom held their breaths as they wait for the judge to say the sentence of Alex.

"... Death by lethal injection to be conducted 1 year from now."

*PAK* *PAK* *PAK*

Hearing the sentence most of the crowd erupted into cheers while others sighed in relief as they are finally able to punish Alex for his crimes albeit indirectly.

Even after hearing that he will be put to death 1 year later, Alex still remains indifferent about it as if he already accepted it and has no plan to resist or argue about it.

'Heh at least i gave those bastards a hell of a time before they died.' Alex smiled slightly remembering the expressions of the 4 he killed.

[inside the execution room]

Alex who is now strapped to the white bed just stares at the ceiling thinking about the life he had.

'Well it was not so bad now that I think about it, my only regret is... Not being able to save you' Alex smiles and closes his eyes as his mind drifted to a scene in which he is having a picnic with a smiling beautiful girl beside him.

Feeling the pain of a needle being injected. Alex smiles even more as his consciousness begin to fade into darkness

'At least i got to die thinking about you.'

'Ich liebe dich'

A/N:means "i love you" but in German

'WTF!!! Why can I open my eyes?!'

'Did those motherfuckers administered the wrong drugs?!?!'

Alex though as he can feel his eyes opening slightly adjusting to the light. And when he finally opened his eyes he was shocked to find out they he is still in that same execution room, only difference is there is no one to be seen except for a tall old man wearing an intricate black armor with gold linings, with a beard that reaches to his stomach, red and purple colored eyes and a face that will certainly have those gilfs watering.

'Uhmmm what the fuck'

"How are you feeling little child?" the old man said in a raspy voice scaring Alex.

Even though he is scared Alex still decided to answer the old man "Ah yes, i think I'm okay"

"..."

"..."

And so an awkward silence begin with Alex and the old man observing each other.

"Are you not curious as to why this is happening and why you are here little child?" The old man said not taking his eyes off of Alex.

"Will you tell me what is happening when I ask?" Liam said not backing down as he also stares at the old man.

"Can you handle what i'm about to tell you?" the old man said as his purple and red eyes begin to glow their respective color and the air around him becoming distorted.

'Yep! I think they injected me the wrong type of drug cause no way this is real!' Alex thought as he gulped audibly, a sign that he is scared of the aura the old man is giving off right now.

Suddenly the old man dashed at Alex with speed that can't be followed by the human eyes, then he poked his index finger at the forehead of Alex.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Alex screamed miserably as the pain that assaulted him is like a headache but 100x worse.

The old man then snaps his fingers and Alex dissappears.

"Just do what you want little child, life is too precious not to enjoy." the old man murmur as his body starts disintegrating.

The old man then smiled.

"Goodluck child, whatever path it is you will travel in the future it will certainly not be smooth."

Finally the old man disintegrated leaving golden dusts scattered into the void.
