A piece for everyone, especially... for... you!

August 1st, 2008

Andrew was ready. He checked and trained all his powers as much as he could. During this month he extensively tested [Water shot] and he could normally shot 20 shots before starting to get dehydrated and 30 before it got really bad. When he drank a lot of water beforehand he could shot about 10 shots. He also discovered that he just had to think about an ability to activate or deactivate it like [Night glowing eyes - dark orange] or if it was like a passive ability like [Elephant's strength] it can be deactivated or it would stay activated all the time. He found out that he could auto equip his suit too.

It was impressive how much a person can change in a single month, especially someone with superpowers.

Andrew edited his suit to look like normal clothes, he would edit his suit later to look all black with a black mask.

It was around 9:00 pm with a full moon but its elegance was obscured by dark clouds. Andrew had just arrived in Edward's house only to catch him leaving.

'Where do you think you are going sh*t face? Your mine!' Andrew thought as he followed.

He walked a couple of blocks and entered a bar. Andrew watched as Edward went to the counter and ordered some beverage and went to his friends who were calling him.

It was safe to say that Andrew got was pissed. His parents were... and this sh*t face was mingling with his friends. He started to growl in an animalistic manner. A couple nearby talked in hushed voices and hurriedly walked away.

Controlling himself, he left the bar and entered some alley nearby, checking to see if Edward left. He waited an hour just in case someone was watching him(S.H.I.E.L.D.), to anyone looking it just appeared like a teenager that wanted a drink before 21. After an hour he changed his suit to all black and put the all-black mask with only eyes for holes on his face and walked out from a different alley.

He got weird looks from some passerby but that did not stop him. There was only one thing on his mind, revenge. After all the wait it was finally starting. He went to the back of the bar, found the fuse boxes and ripped them apart.

"Let the games begin" Andrew whispered as he entered the bar that was in total darkness, everyone blind except him.

He first started by picking up all the unrelated people in the bar and throwing them out(who were screaming all the while), after which he locked all the exits.

Edward and friends were scared. People were screaming in total darkness and once far enough they heard them falling and doors closing.

"Who's there!?" One of Edward's friends asked with a tinge of fear in his voice.

"EDWARD JONES!! YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE, MURDERER!!!"

The moment Andrew said Edward's name he could see him terrified, just like he wanted and his friends visibly relieved for not being the target.

"Shit Ed, what have you done? Does this have something to do with that accident a month ago? Either way, we are out of here, this has nothing to do with us so..." Another od Edward's friend said as they tried to leave.

Just as a guy was about to leave, he was hit and flew backward, crashing into desks, some drinks and finally hit the counter. He was severely injured, with several broken bones and bleeding, the only thing keeping him from screaming out was that he was unconscious.

"What the f*ck?"

"DID I ALLOW ANYONE TO LEAVE?" Andrew said, finally revealing his glowing dark orange eyes.

"What the fuck is THAT!?" Another said, pointing, even though none could see.

"Edward! What the hell have you done!? Is this guy even human!?" Everyone was close to the brink, Andrew could almost smell the fear in the air, he breathed it in like a drug.

Andrew started to dash around the small bar, grabbing a random knife laying around and gave someone a small cut.

"Ouch!"

"Don't worry, my momma always told me sharing is caring" And so the blood-curling screams started. Everywhere the two little orange dots went blood dropped, screams raised, bones snapped and bodies fell with a thud.

At that point the clouds finally cleared, giving way to the brightness of the full moon. Inside the bar, Andrew stood with a bloody knife in one hand, a clenched fist in the other, and his black suit all dirtied, all with the gentle moonlight at his back, creating a mesmerizing yet just wrong picture. The bar was no better, leftover food all scattered, alcoholic beverages, broken chairs, broken tables, blood littered the floor, not to mention all the injured but surely unconscious people.

Andrew slowly, very slowly made his way to Edward who he left for last, not a single hair on his hair touched, all the while making sure to make his footsteps were as loud as possible.

Edward was hiding under a pool table, shivering and a look of mental breakdown imminent.

"BOO!"

"AHHHHHHH!" Edward screamed as he pissed himself and trying to get further in under the pool table. Tried is the keyword here because Andrew pulled him by his hair dropped him on the floor.

"Not so tough are you now? Get up!" Andrew pulled him by his collar, forcing Edward to stare at his eyes. Andrew's eyes were the most beautiful thing Edward had ever seen in his life, the black pupils and white sclera made a gorgeous contrast with the glowing dark orange iris as if it wanted to capture you in its gaze for infinity.

And it was also the scariest eyes at the same time. While they were beautiful they spoke of dangers, of anger, of pure unbridled hatred, and of grief.

Edward was thinking of how in the hell he could have pissed off an enhanced. There weren't that common and he would remember!

Andrew lifted up his mask revealing his face. Edward was shocked to find a teenager no older than 17 or 18 years old behind the mask.

"You're just a-"

"Shh. I guess you don't know me, after all, you didn't bother to check inside the car and just left."

A look of enlightenment flashed through Edward's face as he remembered the accident.

"You finally remembered huh. It's too late now though, you killed the wrong person's family."

"Wait, please, it was just an acciden-"

"JUST AN ACCIDENT!?!?" Andrew grew even madder and punched Edward in the jaw, breaking it.

"Oops, I would say sorry, but you won't need it anymore." Edward stopped and they both locked eyes, Edward's a loom of terror.

"Oh no no no, I'm not going to kill you," Edward sighed with relief but then felt a chill down his spine "It is going to be much, much worse"

========================

A/N: Fair warning, it's going to get really dark now, like torture bad so... If you can't handle that I suggest you leave...

========================

"Let's start now," Andrew said as he held down the terrified Edward on top of the pool table. "I'll let you choose where to start."

"Sh'aaf waf?(Choose what?)" Edward asked with difficulty.

Andrew's lips formed a mad smile.

"What body part you would like to lose first, of course, silly." Hearing that Edward started thrashing on top of the pool table.

"Shhh, you will just make it worse if you do that you know," Andrew said as he downed a bottle of water he found."

"Let's see, I really wish I had [Heavy Stomp] about now, it would make things easier." When he finished speaking he sucks in his cheeks like a fish and a small jet of water shot from his mouth, hitting Edwards left hand.

"Since my father will never drive, I'll take your left hand" When Edward started crying Andrew shot two more times.

"Since my mother will never cook, I'll take your right hand" Andrew smashed Edward's hand with a punch. He pissed himself once again.

"Since my father will never walk, I'll take your left foot." Andrew crushed Edward's feet with his bare hand. He sh*t himself.

"Since my mother will never run, I'll take your right foot." Andrew stabbed his knife through Edward's foot, sticking out on the opposite side. He started begging.

"Since... my father will never look at my mother again, I'll take your left eye." Andrew poked his finger through Edward's eye, popping hit. He pleaded to just kill him.

"Since... my mother will never look at my father again, I'll take your right eye." Andrew smashed a glass cup on top Edward's right eye. He stopped putting up a fight.

"Sinc-" Andrew was going to continue but was interrupted.

"This is the police! You are surrounded! Release the hostages at once!!" He was so focused he didn't notice the police had arrived. He was strong right now but not bulletproof or fast enough to dodge bullets, yet.

"Well, unfortunately, we are going to have to cut this short." He said, not that Edward was listening, he was just barely breathing.

"One thing before I go though. Since my parents will never... hear each other again... I'll take your ears!" Andrew said before pressing both of Edward's ears with his fingers and crushing it in, careful not to accidentally kill him.

After finishing, Andrew went to the storage room, took a breath and punched the wall. It caved in, opening a way to the next unoccupied building. He kept doing that and went into the sewers. He took various twists and turns to lose any unwanted attention.

"I did it father, mother..." Andrew said as he collapsed on his bed after a long night, exhausted.

On the next day

[Breaking News...]

Phew, that was long af. I was going to slipt the chapter but it didn't feel right.

Two changes in the story.

One is his ability to absorb abilities from 'unintelligent animals'. I have changed it to only absorb the powers of animals incapable of communicating with people, based on a suggestion, as that makes more sense.

And there is another change too. If you can spot it and have an idea of what I'm thinking, don't spoil it for others.

Thank you Isoma
