Chapter 8 - Unindulged Suspect

(Background chatter.)

"we need to get him out of here there are too much eyes."

 

"Sargent Regina, I wonder where you found this one."

 

"Sorry madam you need to step back."

 

"Sorry but what was that sound, is there an animal close by or something"

 

"Madam I believe there is nothing to be afraid of, please step back."

 

I can hear people, I can hear them talk, I can hear them speak but I am yet to open my eyes.

What the fuck is happening.

"Nah the FBI can't be on this case for real we would have too many questions." That was the voice of a woman.

 

"What the fuck was that sound though, is this person even human?" another one said.

 

I am conscious but then I am not at the same time, its like the air I breadth is poison, the air I breadth is wearing me but I have walked on the human soil, I have existed here before now.

Or did, did the light and fire blow up my nostrils, have I lost my ability to breadth? that can't be right, I am currently breathing right now, so what seems to be the issue?

I am trying to force open my eyes even though I can hear but it seems like I can't.

Fuck, I am getting tired again, I am getting weak, why? What the fuc....

 

"sniff….sniff." There is fire. I can smell fire, did the place burn down?

"Hoooooowwwwwwl" The next thing I heard.

"Gasp." "Lidus!!" I said jolting up, my eyes were open, It's like, I'm back in the forest, it's like I'm back where it all started in the first place. I just heard lidus my brother, that was his howl, I know it Even in my dream.

Oh its not like, I actually am back but how?

The trees were burning. I could feel the heat, was it all a dream? Did I never wake up? 

 

Am I dead?

where is my sister?

The crackle from the burning wood brought back flashes of my past, like I never left.

Maybe I never woke up, maybe I just collapsed, This forest wasn't burning before, what is going on? Did the Primis locate me?

 

"…." Did they capture Liaris thinking I was dead, oh no, no ,no "LIARIS!!!!" I began to shout as the hot air squeezed my lungs with every inhale.

"LIARIS!!!" I shouted again as I walked forward in towards the burning trees in front.

 

There was a lake nearby I remember.

"LIA….." I shouted but as I was about to complete her name, I saw someone who had the physic of my brother lidus at the lake bank…. Huh? …. "..RIS"….

who was I seeing?

 

"VALIDUS!!!!" I shouted as I ran towards the lake. "I'm so glad you are alive brother" I ran towards him, my heart filled with happiness and serious amount of relief, after all that has happened, my brother could survive, he really is Validus the strong.

"Brother I am so glad you ...." My voice mellowed down as I got close to him.

My brother turned back to me. He looked at me, it was strange, this was Validus but there was something strange about him.

"wh…att " I was barely able to speak, with what I was witnessing.

Wounds, blood.

He was painted red from his head. His shirt covered in blood.

 

"Brother!? What is happening?" I said as a blade casually drove through his chest, blood gushed like a mini river down to the ground and then he spoke.

 

"You dare Call My Name after you killed our very own family?" He said to me his voice echoing as he spoke.

 

Yes this was the truth, I am a stubborn, stupid and useless as a person, I drove everyone in my family to ruin.

"Lidus I am sorry, for…" "SILENCE!!!!" His voice filled with rage, his eyes were opened at me like I was his enemy, Red painted his pupils as they blood fell dripped down to his cheeks.

 

The pain grieved my heart, the guilt pinched my skin.

"Always remember, wherever you Fucking go, you caused this, you made our parents die." He said as he walked closer to me but I stepped back slowly.

"Validus I am sorry, please have mercy upon me." I said to him as I stepped back in the guilt of my own actions.

I was young.

"I know I caused this, please, the guilt already drives me mad, please have mercy, please have mercy Validus please." I began to beg as I stepped back slowly and he walked forward.

I was stupid.

Ha ha haaa. "He let out a cold laugh, "I am not the one to beg, I warned you, I repeatedly warned you but you knew better, you went along with your brave ideology, you destroyed every little thing, You are the curse to our family, you are the bad omen to our unity, you are simply not meant to be." His voice Echoed as he spoke, his tone so deep they made my ears vibrate.

I was dumb.

 

" I am sorry, pl…." "I SAID ENOUGH!!" Then he vanished,.

Yes even I know my wrongs very well. Very clearly I know how unsightly I am.

"Va…Validu..s?" I started to call out for him finding no strength in my voice as tears fell from my eyes.

"VALIDUS!!!" I shouted and then from nowhere I felt a presence behind me. My senses picked his presence the minute it appeared but my body dulled in motion to look back because even though I knew it was him, my body wanted to run.

"Vali…."

 

 "THUD!"

I was hit; it was an immediate hit, the punch was so heavy it forced my body to the ground at tremendous speed, my mouth grazed the sand but something strange happened.

 

"HHHHHHaaaahhh" I deeply inhaled as I jolted up, this was a new place, on a white bed.

Where am i?

Wait I am back?

How did I get here? I mean I was just fighting and now and yeah, I hit the ground, was that a dream?

No hold on. The sound felt soft, like I sank in it, li….

 

"Oh God! Someone knock him out…" the woman who locked eyes with me said as fright made itself seen in her face.

I was confused, Where the fuck is validus?

I looked around and immediately if felt like we were moving, this was like a hospital but it had wheels, a hospital on wheels.

"On it." I heard behind me.

"F…"

"SMACK!"

It was a fatal blow; so fatal It plunged me falling backwards to the pillow but then just like before I sank into the bed and bounced upwards into the burning forest.

 I was still where I was, my body was still bouncing off the floor from my first punch.

 Did I just change worlds?

what the actual fuck is happening.

 

"You killed us, you did this." He said to me, as he walked towards me.

Over and over again.

I fucking know what I did.

Why repeat it like I was a never aware.

I have heard it a thousand times, I was sure I have heard it over and over again but this time I was getting tired, I cant run, no I don't want to anymore.

 

"AHHHHH…." I screamed….. "Yes!!! Yes, I killed everyone, they were my parents too, they were all I fucking had… th…"

 

"Then why!!!! Why didn't you fucking listen!!! I warned you, I showed you proof but you still denied me for that fucking human, that…." He said as he walked towards me whom was thrown on the floor like a ragdoll.

"YES!!!! I did. I made it all happen for fucks sake it is obvious but all I want to do now Is make the Primis lex suffer, I want to make them all pay, I want to make humans fear us again, I know that I fucked up, but all I want right now is revenge." I said as I stood up in my own shameless rage.

 

"I want to make the ones who made me suffer, die!!!, I want them all to eat their own hearts, they made my mother naked, they made her die in her own nakedness and they made my father die in the shame of his own good" I began to shout as I looked at him with my own rage written all over me.

 "So here I am brother, here I am, if its death you wish upon me then carry it out swiftly for I am tired, I tire of running the guilt has killed me Lidus, it has killed me, I am not running anymore, I am now here, I will stand my ground so please carry on, I will take it all." I said as I looked at him with no fear, no remorse, If I was to get a direct hit from him, I know I may end up dead but I still don't care, I have forsaken all so what do I have to lose?

I thought as I let out a smile like a maniac who saw its next treasure hunt.
