BlackLight Worlds apart

"Let's get this over with, I rather not stay here longer than necessary," I spoke aloud to myself as I watched one Ethan Winters stumble into an old village with a massive castle looming over it.

.

It was already annoying to have to watch and wait for the story to progress while I couldn't do anything about it. I couldn't speed it along or slow it down to make my plans easier. Damn World Laws and stupid missions. Why can't I just go and consume the Megamycete, it would deal with so much!?

I sighed while I stood and waited until I heard the familiar sound of a shotgun going off. I smiled as not long after I watched a Lycan jump out of a house with a dead body in its claws. A pleasant smile formed on my face as I sighed in relief that the story was progressing a bit faster now.

.

'Waste not, want not.' I thought as I formed my arm into my whip-fist and stab both of them in one go. 'I humbly thank you for this meal.' I jokingly thought as I consumed the two corpses.

.

I soon felt the cadou parasite try to infect me, keyword 'try'. I couldn't help but feel pissed that a lower piece of filth tried to take over my body. So I did the only thing reasonable, I simply destroyed the parasite.

.

I heard the familiar ding of my lifelong partner in my mission as I felt the cadou disappear inside my body, never to be heard from again. I continued to watch as Ethan run and do his best to survive the onslaught of Lycans that surround him. Then that big fucker, Urias I think, appeared with that massive hammer of his.

.

Then the story went on as normal with Ethan meeting the Hag, then that house that burned down, and then the Duke, as he calls himself, rolls past in his wagon as Ethan entered the castle via the front gate. Honestly, I kind of want to consume him to see how the hell he hasn't died from being that size or at least lost a foot to diabetes. But I don't as I kinda like the guy. Maybe I can convince him to come with me to be a merchant for where ever I go next?

.

Eh, a question for another time. Then not long after I see the one known as Karl Heisenberg drag Ethan who was bound by scrap metal. Though, I don't know why he just doesn't float him. After all, Karl can easily do it with all that scrap he stuck to Ethan. But I have to admit, that hammer of his is badass.

.

'Soon I can finally stop hiding,' I thought as I waited for Heisenberg to head on into the meeting chamber with the others that Miranda mutated. 'I know one thing, I'm definitely getting Lady D and her daughters. They'll be good soldiers and loyal to me once I cure them of the cadou and their blood disease. Heh, they might even become my lovers if I play with their minds just right.'

.

As I was absorbed in my thoughts, I was following Heisenberg to the meeting chamber without him knowing. Finally, they got into the meeting chamber with the others. Once they started arguing about who should get to 'prepare' Ethan Winters. As soon as Heisenberg went to start the 'show' I hopped down in front of Ethan. To make sure I left an impact, I increased my weight and made a crater as soon as I landed. I also allowed my blood lust to flood the entire chamber while keeping it from affecting Ethan.

.

"Yo!" I said as I simply raised my hand in greeting. Though they were all on guard at my sudden appearance. "Now, before you start the show, allow me to introduce myself. I am-"

.

Miranda: "Silence! You, a mere human, dare to act-" Miranda shouted at me.

.

"Quite!" I shouted back while sending my tendrils under the ground and cut and consume an arm of hers before she could react, making it as painful as possible.

.

As soon as it was done, Miranda screamed in pain as she dropped to the ground. Donna Beneviento cowered along with her puppet while the disgusting ball of flesh known as Moreau wabbled to Miranda's aid. Karl looked between me and Miranda as if he saw a ghost. As for Lady Dimitrescu, she extended her claws ready to fight me.

.

"Really?" I asked with a snort. "She dared to interrupt me and now she paid the price. Now, as for who and what I am, I go by many names but I have a preferred few. The first one is Virus, as that's what I am. The second one is one of my many personas, Alex Mercer, the most know name I have. As for - WILL YOU SHUT UP!?!" I shouted as numerous Lycans started to roar in response to me attacking Miranda, so I just sent my whip-fist at one then shot tendrils out from it to consume a good 50 or more of them at once. "Now as I was saying, as for my third name, it is known to you as the Megamycete. More specifically, it's core." My little outburst and attack shocked them, but my announcement that I was the Megamycete made them speechless.

.

Ethan, even though he was being protected by me, tried to run away when he saw me attack all those Lycan. I just sighed and sent a tendril to pull him back. When he got back to my side, I made a few tendrils into a bench for me to sit on and left him on the ground. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see that Ethan was terrified of me. I snorted at him and he flinched.

.

"Anyway, the reason I'm here is quite simple. I'm here to absorb the part I left here." I said as I looked down upon Miranda who was silent and I had a feeling of why. "While I'm at it, I plan on looking for people that have managed to survive the mutations they went through when they were infected by it. As for their purpose, if they're useful, they'll become my subordinates with all the perks that come with it. Like Mister Heisenberg over there with his electric organs or the lovely lady over there." I smiled at Lady.

.

"What's in it for us?" Heisenberg asked while making a show of it, hiding Miranda from my sight. Probably making sure he stayed on her good side for now.

.

"Well, for one thing, I can guarantee the same loyalty from me to you," I said as I used my tendrils to pull back Miranda as she tried to escape. "And I will tell you what you want to know when you ask it of me. No lies or half-truths like this conniving bird here." I said as I pulled Miranda to me.

.

"GET YOUR FILTHY-" Lady D shouted and went to attack me but was stopped by Heisenberg.

.

"Cool your tits," Heisenberg said as he held his hammer out. "He has all the cards."

.

"Smart man," I said with a smile. "You can see when you're outmatched. A very good trait. Now, on to something that none of you realize about this birdy. A lie of hers." As soon as I said that, Miranda started to squirm around, prompting me to form a birdcage around her.

.

"L-l-l-l let M-miranda Go!" The mass of flesh known as Moreau shouted and charged at me while transforming.

.

Heisenberg nor Lady D even got a chance to move before Moreau's cadou was ripped from his heart. He died as he ran and tumbled to a stop in front of me. The doll-user, Donna Beneviento, tried to run, showing where her true loyalties lie. I giggled a bit before sending a tendril at her and bringing her back to arm's reach of me. Once she was, I used my power to fix her face and her powers before gently setting her down and turning her around.

.

"First, I can offer this for each one of you," I spoke as I lifted her veil. "From the look on your faces, I can see this is quite the offer, huh?" I smirked. "What I offer you is the chance to fix what ails you. Whether it was before or after you received the cadou, I can fix it with ease."

.

"..." Neither one of them said a word.

.

As for Donna Beneviento, I made a mirror out of a tendril of mine and showed her face to her. From the mirror, I can see her visible look on in shock. Not only that, but I also repaired her fragile mind the best I could so she could think rationally. I want soldiers loyal to me of their own volition, not mindless puppets. Though I could do with either. It made no difference to me.
