Ever thought that you were invincible? Yeah me too. I feel as if its a part of life. That thought that noone would ever have the sort of might that instilled a sence of pride and beleife in ones self. Well maybe we arent the only ones.
My weapon of choice? A spear. Yes, a weapon that would seem to pale in comparison to any other weapon is my choice of assult. Beleive me i slept many a night just thinking of how ridiculous it would seem as to fight enemies that have come from all walks of life with my primary choice being a pointy peice of wood and an iron seam at the top.
But where my creativity lacks in weapons, my weapon makes up in strength with the power to pearce through just about anything, or at least what i could test it on.
Jake, on tge other hand wasnt as happy with his reaction to the spear after seeing its true potential. He judged a book by its cover. A saying that echoed in his thoughts for the next day that we had spent in that modern highrise apartment, well its remains but it was something.
The next morning, I woke up and instantly realised something that shook me to my core.
The sight bestowed upon me could leave even the most emotionless in tears.
An apoling feeling then arose in the center of my chest. It feeling as if it was just put in an inferno of flames that could burn dry ice.
Jake, the spear, both of them nowhere to be found. The building feeling like a cage. My solitary self being overwhelmed with the feeling of betrayal being the catalyst for a complete rolercoaster ride of anger, frustration and an unnatural feeling of saddness. One i had only felt after the fall of my then greatest rival Jack Stone.
"Where could he have gone?" I said outloud and for the first time in a while, I didnt hear the though blatant and blunt, actually quite comforting voice replying to me in close proximity.
Just like that all those thoughts of mine that bearly seemed concerning finally culminated in their resolve. Not a threat of what is to come but a lesson to maintain communication with your greatest ally as I would never know when my best friend would turn into my greatest enemy.
I never really took the time out of my day to talk to jake and really understood his feelings about being my teammate. The friend i saw in him was really just about my trust that he wouldnt betray me. But I never really had anything to affirm that trust that i had in him.
Now that foolish sence of security caused me this. If anything it was just my turn to reap the fruits of my labour. Although Jake had just left he did not leave us with nothing to show for his envolvement. His efforts were not in vain but just what the both of us needed to get by.
Though i felt well and trully dissappointed by his decision to leave me with noone to continue this long and ever testing journey, I still wished the best for him and his future.
Even though i was just deserted, the gods of life in this world dont wait for anyone. There is no way i could let this setback dictate the rest of my life on this makeshift earth. So without anything really pushing me apart from my certain death if i do not get to work i got myself moving and out of that building.
The city was enormous. Giant skyscrapers that range as far as the eye can see. The sky looked like a painting straight out of an exhibition in the highest museum in paris.
Regardless of the views that this area had to offer, I had bigger fish to fry. A new area means new monsters and that would usually be music to my ears but then my teammate just left so...
I preety much had to prepare for night. Not as simple as one would anticipate given my past experiences with such times because of the availability of a right hand man.
All the time all that i could think about was my past moments that led up to Jake leaving, but time waits for noone, so there i was just a solo from then on.
[System message: Blood moon active, monsters spawn 2x faster. Good luck]
"Just my luck isnt it?" I thought out loud visibly annoyed at the announcement. "Thats just what i needed after all that i have taken today."
Then out of nowhere a horde of mysterious creatures appeared around me. The group of abominations continued to group around me like a barrier that ensured that i was not leaving without there being bloodshed.
The sight was terrifying. The deformed bodies of adolescent men and women who died young being used to kill a man like me made both scenarios look grim and unsettling from both sides. If i won and defeated all these creatures, I look as if i had not learned my lesson. That the killer of all had come back and was opperating like nothing ever changed. On the other hand if i lost, i wouldnt get my second chance at life that had brought me this far fighting for.
To Be Continued
Im back:)
