Chapter 11: A Mothers Love (part End)

"Looking back…All of these events….All the things that happened to this world and the people in it…The blame only falls on me…"

.

.

.

Karma-" Would you care to explain this newfound technique?"

V-"...My fight with Azazel…made me realize some things…even if I find countermeasures of using 'Null' or even an efficient way to take him down he'll catch on to it…amidst our fight, he changed…it was as if he evolved into something far more dangerous…and to fight something like that I need my own set of tactics"

Vergo-"*slurp* Oh yeah? And what's that? *slurp*"

Both V and Karma comically look at Vergo.

V-"...could you take this seriously you're hurting my feelings *sob*, and also surprised that you could still eat more"

Vergo- "I CAN'T HELP IT MAN THESE NOODLES ARE WAY TOO DAMN GOOD"

Karma-" I feel like we're getting sidetracked here"

V-" AHEM…To beat Azazel and get any chances of getting back my heart, I need a technique so powerful that I leave no weak spots, And so I thought about something..this subliminal space…here...I can practically do anything I can think of…"

Vergo-"*Chokes on noodles*...OI..Don't tell me-"

V-" This place is restricted outside of my mind...but if I can somehow create a space like this outside.…it doesn't have to be big, just enough space where I have absolute control over everything, every attribute, the air, the dirt…the life inside that area…Everything…"

"Then I can win."

The words coming out of V; 's mouth baffled the both of them.

Karma-" Are you sure you're capable of doing something like this? Creating something like a subliminal realm in the primordial timeline is next to impossible."

V-"..Premordial timeline?"

Vergo-" It's the timeline where everything existing and non-existing was first created…The primordial timeline was created by a set of rules using the books of God…It's the very plane of your existence"

Karma-" What you're trying to do here is to deny the natural rules of your timeline and create your very own timeline…This place around you is nothing more than your deep consciousness…something like recreating a place like this where you can control anything and everything outside in the primordial timeline…that is impossible "

V-"...Creating my timeline huh…"

"If that's what it takes then I'll create it…"

The statement left Karma and Vergo speechless.

Karma-"...It seems that you have lost it…so what you're saying is…"

"You…A human..is going to do something only a God can?"

V-"...Thats…"

Vergo-" HAHAHAHA!~ Y'know you sometimes ya say the most fucked up and weirdest shit ever pfft- HAHAHAAH"

Karma-"...Vergo.."

Vergo-" Seems like fun…let it rip kid-"

Karma-" VERGO! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING-"

V-" Yeah…I know theoretically doing something like this is impossible but…I've been testing things out and finally, I'm at a stage where I think I can pull this off"

Karma-"What…do you mean by-"

Vergo-" Karma…Let's see what the kid does…maybe he'll be lucky enough actually to pull off something a God can HAHAHAHAHA"

Karma just looks at Vergo with concern on his face. 

Suddenly V feels a chill down his spine as if something wrong was going on in the real world.

V-"...somethings wrong…Hey!, I'll be leaving now..see ya later"

V leaves the subliminal space. Karma could not understand the level of absurdity V was trying to pull off.

Karma-" Vergo…what are you trying to pull here?"

Vergo-" Hmm? What are you implying by that?"

Karma-" What the kid is trying to do is impossible…even with our Gifts He can't do something like that…"

Vergo-" I'd say let the kid do whatever the fuck he wants…Who knows maybe it'll work out well~ knowing that shitty kid…he'll pull it off"

Karma-" You…you learned something about him… haven't you?"

Vergo-" Say…you ever wonder why this place sometimes feels too real?

Karma-"..Now that you mention it… it's true…I do have to commend you on creating something this decent this time."

Vergo-" It wasn't me dumbass…This place doesn't exist in his mind…this is an actual place somewhere...Somewhere that's not the primordial timeline… that's why everything here feels so real This place…I can control this place only because I'm allowed to…"

Karma-" Not created by you?...then how did a place like this exist in the first place?"

Vergo-"Hehehe…HAHAHAHAA-

"That kid…is the most fucked up thing I've ever seen in my entire life."

.

.

.

V digs his fingers into the wall.

"Subliminal Space-"

"Room"

In an instant, It's as if time had stopped in its tracks. The surrounding area changes, Both V and the monster start to get engulfed by darkness. From the outside, it looked as if a black sphere had started to form to enclose both of them. The monster took notice and tried to escape.

V-" NOPE!!- WHO GAVE YOU THE IDEA OF GETTING OUT HUH?!!"

V held on to the monster, even biting on its arm so as not to let it get out. The darkness kept expanding and expanding, Chains started to form from the bottom and chained down the black sphere. The monster tries its hardest to get out But V doesn't budge. And as such both of them got enclosed inside the black sphere.

Everything up until this point…Changes.

.

.

.

The monster looks around, not being able to find an exit. The monster looks back in anger but V has already disappeared. The monster looked around in anxiety and confusion. The monster tries and tries to find a way to get out but fails. The monster felt more and more anxious, something about this place wasn't right the monster started to lose it and started going berserk but that did nothing at all. All it could do was watch itself sink into despair.

"Even though it's my first time trying this…still costs a lot out of me…But I'm glad it worked…. Vergo said a timeline would have a set of rules…if that's the case then my first rule will be this."

V walks in front of the monster, the monster seeing V in sight instantly starts to attack but none of them intercept with V.

 "No physical attack could deal any damage to the originator"

The first rule set by V in this domain of his. The monster keeps on striking at V but all the attacks just phase through him. While the monster struggles to attack, in the meantime V slowly heals his wounds.

V-" Now then…let's see how far I can go from this point out."

V points at the monster with his index finger. He points his index finger down and instantly the monster's body starts to get squished into the ground by increasing the gravitational force. The monster tries to stand but can't due to how heavy the surrounding area feels.

"Any attribute in the selected area is in full control of the originator"

The second rule set allowed V to erase, create, modify, and merge any attribute of his selected area. To have full control over every single detail.

V-"...seems like it's working… let's see…erase the air in the selected area"

The surrounding air of the monster gets fully erased from existence. But doing so had no changes to the monster.

V-" Hmm…thought suffocation would be a good way to end you but seems like you don't breathe in the first place…If so then how about-"

As V tried to implement a Third rule, he reached his limit. He started coughing out a lot of blood. At the same time, blood started to seep out of his eyes and nostrils. The blood pressure keeps on rising, making it harder for V to breathe.

V-" Shit…i can't…breath…fuck…I guess …right now I could only make 2 rules…Thats fine…for now…I gotta heal up …and kill this thing…"

V puts out his hand and makes a claw, slowly pushing his fingers downwards. Black arms start to come out of the ground and grab hold of the monster's ligaments. The black arms started to tear apart various parts of the monster's body. The monster squirms and screams in pain as each of his ligaments from its body gets ripped apart mercilessly.

V-" Why scream?... Isn't this the same thing you did to all of those people in that room…and all those disfigured monsters out there…you did that and you deserve this pain right now…Must be painful having your body be torn to pieces…"

All the monster's ligaments are torn off. The monster doesn't have the will to move after all this…but still barely hangs on to its life.

V-"... strange…I shouldn't hold any remorse for monsters like these…but somehow…I feel as if this one is different…I feel like I'm making some sort of…a mistake…"

V stands before the monster while the monster lies on the ground barely hanging on. The monster looks at V with all of its remaining strength.

V-"...I guess this is it…Goodbye-"

"W-..Why..Mama.."

Just before V was going to kill the monster once and for all, it spoke out for the first time. Leaving V stunned, seeing the monster tear up in front of him, It was as if a high-pitched noise was rattling inside V's head.

"I-...was…a good boy..no?…why…mama…"

"Why are you hitting me-..."

.

.

.

Suddenly the story shifts into a new perspective.

And the noise inside V's head..got even louder.

"Honey~ When will you be back from your business trip?"

"Her name was Eiko. She's my one and only beautiful wife…honestly, I even think to myself how I scored myself this beauty…She was an angel descended from the heavens…I had a business trip coming up so for the time being I had asked my mother to look after Eiko as I had learned a few days ago…That Eiko was blessed with our child…I didn't want to leave but… Eiko like this knowing how she is~...she persisted in my going on the business trip…and so I gave in…Back then..if I could go back in like…I wouldn't have ever left Eiko's side."

A beautiful and harmonious family… their love for each other was so strong…, nothing could come between their happiness as a family. But nothing ever remains the same. Soon behind that happiness…A wicked smile would start to gaze at them.

"After my husband had left, I tried to spend more time with my mother-in-law but…my mother-in-law never really liked me from the beginning and detested me…Every time I came in front of her, her eyes would be filled with disgust… despite all this, I wanted to get along with my mother-in-law…Things were I guess..going ok. Then one day my brother-in-law, Adolf visited us at our house…Even though I tried to be friendly with my husband's family I never felt safe around them…Especially when it came to my brother-in-law...Adolf needed a place to stay for a few days since he'd recently lost his job…Even though I was unsure my mother-in-law belittled me when I hesitated to help "The family"...and so I reluctantly accepted and let Adolf stay in our house for a few days. But things started to get weird. I learned that my brother-in-law had been looking at me with lustful eyes. I was scared…I consulted this with my mother-in-law but as expected my mother-in-law said nothing about this but instead took my brother-in-law's side…stating he was like this because he lost his job…as the days went I got more and more afraid for my safety…I didn't want to inform my husband just yet because I knew he would come right away…"

"And so… one day, when my mother-in-law had gone out to finish some errands…Adolf had put something in my drink. After drinking, I realized he had put in some kind of a weird drug...I struggled to get to the phone to call for help but before I could do anything it was already too late…My brother-in-law tore up my clothes and assaulted me. This went on for days…instead of giving me food he would force me to consume drugs and his semen and would assault me over and over again with no intention of stopping.in those days, my mother-in-law had stopped coming to my house entirely. Anytime he wasn't assaulting me he would chain me up in his dark room with no clothes on…This went on and on and on and on. But in my mind…I was hoping that my husband would rescue me…I prayed to God that he would send my husband to save me from this nightmare."

"But he never came-"

.

.

.

*bed creaking*

Adolf-" Hehe…you like that don't you…AH~ there's not even a glint of light in your eyes…this makes me so hard~"

Eiko-"...Why..Why…do this..what did I do to deserve this…"

Adolf-" Why you say?...Because I JUST WANTED TO GET BACK AT MY BROTHER…SEEING HIM WITH SUCH A FINE SPECIMEN...ENJOYING THIS BODY…AHHH~ HOW ENVIOUS I FELT EVERY TIME LOOKING AT YOU TWO. I WANTED EVERYTHING FROM HIM.."

Eiko-"...please..stop…I'm a pregnant woman…please spare me and my child…"

Adolf-" Hehe…HAHAHA..that child in your stomach?... That's not his"

Hearing such a statement made Eiko quiver in confusion.

Eiko-"...Wh-What do you mean…"

As Eiko asked this question Adolf grinned in delight,

Eiko-"..Wh..WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BABY ADOLF??"

Adolf-" Ya' see…I didn't just give you paralyzing drugs…I also mixed in a special type of drug…"

"A drug that would kill your baby in your womb~"

Eiko falls into the bottomless pit of disparity after learning that the only thing she had left was taken from her from the beginning…Nothing was left and thus..

Eiko had completely shut down.

.

.

.

"...It had been a year after finding out what had happened to my baby…and in between all of this all I could blame on…was my husband for never coming back…Even if he were to be back by now…hehehe…hahaha…"

"This big belly….this baby in me…isnt yours dear…"

"I had lost all hope for I had been abandoned by the one I loved and now…instead of carrying the baby of my beloved husband…I was carrying the baby of his brother. Despite being pregnant that would not sate his lust and he would continue to have sex with me…"

"It…just went on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on…"

.

.

.

"As a last glimmer of hope…I believed that God would come to save me and take me to heaven…but that day…even God never came to save me…The world had fallen apart as everyone went into an apocalyptic stage…But thanks to that…I could finally escape…so I ran out of that house but there was no point in doing something like this…I had no place to stay…no food and on top of that…my water had just broken…everything had been crumbling apart, eating everything inside of me bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit…"

"Soon…I didn't even realize that I had pointed the knife in front of me…directly at my stomach…The next thing I knew was I had cut my stomach open to hold my dear child….such a small life I had held onto my arms…holding my baby...I had finally held long enough…and had wished nothing more but death to save me…just as I was about to leave this world…he showed up.."

Azazel-"...Do..you wish to stay with your child a bit longer?... Do you wish power to get back what you had lost?..."

Eiko-" This baby of mine holds no sin…so..even if it's his child I won't abandon it like how I was…with that"

"Give me the power to protect my child"

Azazel grins profusely after listening to Eiko's request.

Azazel-" Very well…you shall be my first test subject…"

"Right after that all of my memories had been covered up by a thick mist. That man had done something to me…I felt different…I looked different…along with my baby…I felt…as if I was reborn into a new shell."

Azazel-"Hm…a failure it seems…As I thought I won't get what I want from my first try…I don't need you so do as you wish in this land…"

"I didn't understand the man's intentions but I was indebted to him…before he left there was one thing he said to us."

Azazel-" Don't think of me as your savior…from what I see things will get even worse for you…but…there will be another…"

"There will be someone who can help you reach the heavens"

"Until then…Goodluck"

.

.

.

"After that, I don't know how many years had passed but my days would go on with me spending time with my child…I thought to myself that I had finally regained back my happiness…"

"But soon that happiness…would soon fade away once more…"

Adolf-"Ah~~ After so many years i've finally found you…Eiko~"

"My days of misery continued even after being reborn…Adolf had changed…He would use my powers along with his to trick people and would feed them to my child behind my back…I tried to fight back this time but couldn't win…my trauma had made me weak even after all this…He kept on feeding human lives to my child and all I could do was to stand still and watch…nothing had changed…My child would get stronger and stronger from consuming the humans…"

"Mama…Don't worry….i-i will…protect…you"

"My child's words stung in my heart…Nothing had changed…I was never saved from the torture of that man…and instead of fighting back…I kept on protecting my child from everything else while he kept on using my powers."

"This was the same case but…but this child…the girl…despite being in an illusion…despite giving her the means of a painless death by her family she persisted and kept fighting it…later on I would encounter a boy in the woods…but something about the boy felt different…something inhumane about him…like he existed and didn't exist at the same time… I was afraid of that boy…and of his memories locked deep inside him… and that something inside him was guarding something deep within the boy's mind"

"The girl was one thing but this boy… just how stupidly strong is he…despite being so young he felt no fear towards me or my child…I wonder…if my child had been born into normal circumstances then would he have a friend like you?... The boy kept attacking and attacking…I had protected my child for God knows how many years but this time… I Don't think I'll be able to do so…"

"This last attack from this boy… there's no escaping it… I have many regrets in my life…back when I was a human or when I turned into this monster…I'm sorry my son…you would've had a big brother if it weren't for my luck…or maybe this boy here would have been your playmate…Ah...I wish I could've spent more time with you and had done a good job at protecting you from Adolf but…I'm a failure as a mother…I hope you can forgive me…"

"I hope you can forgive this selfish mother for leaving you behind.."

.

.

.

These were the memories of the monster's life and what it had gone through all in its life…all of these images…all of these scenes…the thoughts..the moments…the tone of the mother…All of this…Kept ringing inside V's head as if the big bang was being rung directly near his ears. His mind slowly started to piece out everything…everything made sense. Rage…nothing but Rage was overwhelming in him…just pure hatred to a degree he thought he could never feel in his gut…and suddenly..something cracked inside his head.

.

.

.

"...I…messed up-"
