Volume Seventy Nine

Silence filled the empty space. He slowly walked towards us, hearing no footsteps. I pulled Autumn behind me to protect her from this thing. The thing that came fourth was very unpleasing to see, he looks just like Marcus. His body is disfigured, several scars are across his body. His eyes don't look in the same direction. " I repeat myself what are you too Marcus?!, can you let go of him?!". His eyes locked onto me with his wicked smile, his voice was slightly more depressing than Marcus. " I wish I was never part of Marcus, this boy will never experience the beauty of life. His past will always haunt him!. I'm the only reason why he hasn't gone completely senile!, I know what his life will end up. He never be able to find peace in his life cause of the trauma he went through. So I ask of one for you thing, or is it called a promise.". While looking around for a place to escape this area. While running around, constantly bumping into the past life of Marcus. " can you make these stop?!, I'm tired of seeing Marcus in so much pain.". The last image I bumped into made me uneasy, " ladies and Gentlemen. I welcome you to the most exciting experiment that we had ever came up with, this experiment is called Thirteen.". I was interrupted by this mysterious being. " don't listen to that one, I knew that I shouldn't have let it out of my sight.". I pulled away format the image, what is his job in this realm. Why did he chose Marcus to control?!, I have to get rid of this being. " tell me who you are?!, why do torment this poor child!?.". I can feel a strong gust of wind go past me, I noticed that Autumn was not gripping her weapon. Wait a minute I don't have any armor or do I have my sword. What had happened to our gear, is this what he can do. I know that I didn't forget to grab them, Autumn always has her daggers with her. The clone of Marcus was to the right of my hip. " you think that I would torment this poor child for this long!. I'm the reason why he is still alive, why he has any chance of surviving on his own. While I suppressed all of the anger, sadness. His held back he lost all of his humanity in the process, all I want from him is just to find himself again. Or find something that can make him someone. I want nothing but the best for him, so I ask the both of you. Please kill Marcus!". He fell down crying to himself, he had no tears nothing but sobbing sounds. I looked at Autumn with confusion. Why do he want us to kill Marcus for?, isn't Marcus the reason this being is alive. If we kill Marcus, this thing will die with it. Can't he cure Marcus from all of this, what can't this thing do. " why?!, why?!, do you know what you are saying to us?!. What you are asking from us?!, Marcus is a innocent child. Well at least I would think so. He has done nothing wrong has he not, so what kind of sick thing are you to demand the death of a child?!". His voice was shattered, constantly skipping a beat. Autumn walked over to him to comfort him, " it's okay to cry.". Her hand rubbing the top of his head, she removed her hand. The blood dripping from her hand wasn't her's, " my- my name is Darkouls!, I've never meant to hurt the child. Marcus is a very dear friend of mine, I've been with him since birth. He and I are the only one of our kind, I wanted nothing but the best for him. So I was blessed with the ability called Experience. I was happy to be blessed with this type of power, after the years of torture I quickly realized it's a curse. Marcus and I went through years and years of pain. When we finally escaped that place, I was afraid of everything. The wind blew, fresh air, warm water, a hug, anything you could think of freighted me. We were rescued the first time, I thought maybe we encounter something called love. I was wrong they saw us a an abomination, this child had done nothing. Yet the world thinks of him as a gift from the devil, why though cause he looks different. This world has cured us for nothing, all I want to do is just enjoy life with him. I've met your kind of people Jim!, your people were the same ones who told us that Hell is too go of a place for us!. That God should create a new place souly for us, a child no older than the age of Five. I always wonder why life we always like this for us, then while being tortured the thought came to mind. Maybe our life is just for us to escape then die. That life sounds pretty good right, I wanted to help Marcus out for so long. I knew if I had unleashed these powers I to those people. It would do us no good, they would use us for their personal game. They already had used us for that reason, laughing at us while we were being raped. The ones he and I protected from the harshness of that place. Watched as their hero was being ripped apart, plucked,skinned, demolished. So that is why I want to die so badly, I can no longer live. I wanted to live before cause of maybe their was a purpose for us outside, I was wrong. Our purpose is none. Unlike y'all you understood why the world was cruel to y'all, I haven't. I don't blame you for what your people have accused us of. I am the same.".
