Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 : A Brother's Guilt (1)

A/N: This chapter may be a bit gruesome for some. Descriptive fighting scenes.

In the previous timeline when Shivansh had not married Sophie, he had already created his suit. It was a marvel of engineering. He was then struck by a dream. Creating robots, but not any robots. A robot that had human emotions. Artificial humans that were genetically modified.

Thus he started his first experiment. The creation of Shanti. He built her in his lab using his parent's genes. He created conditions suitable and made nourishing fluids to rush the process of growth.

The being should not have emotions in the beginning but things do not work as it was supposed to. The part of brain that experiences emotions was not to be activated till end of the process, but it activated in the initial moments.

This was where chaos ensured. Shanti had experienced everything. Her body was forced to grow at terrifying speeds. She was in pain every second of the process. A pain that is unimaginable. Shivansh not knowing this was happy that the process was going smoothly.

If was that fateful day when he was supposed to connect their brains via the suit and a bit of soul later. She also had one as he had already built her like a human that was a walking war machine. She had weapons, high reaction speeds, strength and speed. She was a beauty that could kill anyone in a blink.

Here muscles were trained with every known fighting art form. She exceled in cold and hot weapons[1]. Shivansh released her and quickly activated the machine. The brain was connected and so were their emotions and memories. 

It was at that moment that he realized that she was in unimaginable pains throughout the process, but alas it was too late. Place yourself in Shanti's place. What will you do if you were tortured every day and suddenly you were released in front of the person who did all that.

Shanti slowly walked towards Shivansh, blades coming out of her palms. Shivansh looked at her with tears in his eyes. He fell down to his knees. Only one question rang in his head.

He did not want such success. What was the use when he tortured someone in such manners. There is a thin line between causes. His curiosity had given someone such pain that cannot be described by words. He felt his morals being broken second by second. 

Shanti slowly walked towards him. Here glistening skin was still wet from the nutritional fluids and gene modifications. She looked at Shivansh with a cold stare. A pool of fluid forming beneath her legs.

 She raised here hand motioning to strike. Shivansh was devastated at this sight, he then took such a step that no one expected him to.

Shivansh deactivated his armor. He then looked at her, his eyes full of tears. He then gave a weak smile. 

"I- I- I am so- sorry Shanti." He stammered mustering up these words with great effort.

Anger flashed in Shanti's eyes. She looked at him in disgust and kicked him in the stomach just below the diaphragm. Shivansh coughed as all the air in his lungs escaped. He was launched a few feet in the air.

Shanti then suddenly gave him another kick with strength enhancement and he was sent flying towards the wall.

The titanium wall of the lab cracked under pressure. Shivansh's ribs and spine was shattered. He vomited blood but made no attempt to defend himself. He tried to raise himself up but to no avail. He successfully flipped himself and gasped for air.

Suddenly Shanti came beside him. Shivansh was in a pitiful state. Gasping for air. Shanti raised her leg high and with a swift motion brought it crashing down at terrific speeds. With the heel of her foot she struck his knee. 

*Crack*

Shivansh screamed in agony. His knee was cracked and a caving hole could be seen there. She did not remove her leg and started to twist her heel. Their brains were connected but she could not feel any pain. She could only here him asking for forgiveness in her mind.

"SHUT UP! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" She screamed as she did the same thing with the other knee. Shivansh once again screamed in pain. Blood gushed out of his mouth from the internal injuries and his vocal cords tearing apart. He tried to move but he was pinned down. His broken spine was of not that much help.

"ACTIVATE YOUR ARMOR! WHY ARE YOU PITYING ME!? DO YOU THINK I CANNOT KILL YOU" She Screamed

"WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME? WHY ARE YOU NOT FIGHTING BACK?" She continued.

Shivansh looked at her wearily. He then smiled. A smile of sadness.

"Be- because I ma- made a mistake. *cough* You still a- are my sister Shanti." He spoke in a pained voice.

"STOP WITH YOUR BULLSHIT! IF I WAS YOUR SISTER YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER PUT ME THROUGHT THAT HELL!!!" 

"I- I- I am so- sorry Shanti..."
