Chapter 1 - The Numbers

Numbers that is what everything resolves around. EVERYTHING.

'SO ANNOYING' Kye screams inside of his head as his face turns to multiple different faces of rage in mere seconds.

'THIS IS SO ANNOYING, IT'S ALWAYS NUMBERS, IT'S ALWAYS GET THE NUMBERS' Kye continues ranting inside of his head, 'BE IT MONEY, STATUS OR POWER, IT SO ANNOYING'.

Kye continues to scream inside of his head as his last breaths are being spent up. 'I hate this system of power, where the people with the most money and status are at the top' Kye says in his head as his breathing becomes weaker. 'I wish I could destroy it and create my own rules where money and status don't matter'.

As Kye finishes that thought his last breath is let out and his chest and every organ in his body stops moving as he dies in the cold breeze of the night and in a puddle of mud water from yesterday's rain.

The moon shines on a certain park in an unknown world, inside that particular park ragged breathing is heard with the sound of multiple feet stomping on the ground chasing the person who is breathing so heavily like he ran a marathon. This particular person is Kye Erebus who is running for his life as if he were to be caught he would die in seconds. Kye spots a corner and quickly turns it and spots a bush where he could hide behind so the people chasing him won't find him.

As he runs over there and practically dives into it he sits there still as a board as the group of people chasing him run past where he is hiding, but fate has it worse for him as right as he thinks he is okay and begins to stand up a hand appears on his shoulder and throws him across the park as he tumbles and rolls over himself multiple times.

Slowly getting up as his legs shake and almost give out as the running he has done is starting to take a toll on his body. Before he could fully get up the person who kicked him ran over to him and started punching him in his stomach. Kye could do nothing but try to block it as he was pummeled with punches in his gut making blood come spilling out of his mouth in big groups.

'Fuck' Kye thought as he fell to the ground on his knees with tears and blood streaming down his face onto the ground.

"How does it feel shithead" the person says as he spits at Kye who is struggling to stay up.

"..."

"Come on talk shithead, TALK!" the person says as he grabs Kye by his hair and pulls his face to his own.

"I told you to talk" the person says in a low voice, but before he could continue Kye spits in his face.

"Hahaha
" Kye starts as a smirk appears on his face.

"HAHAHAHA" Kye continues.

"I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU" the person screams at Kye in outrage.

"You could try," Kye says with a mischievous grin on his face.

After Kye says that, the person resumes punching his stomach which makes Kye lose even more blood as it pours out of his mouth. After more than 5 minutes of continuous beatings Kye filled with blood and bruises is laying on the ground not able to move a muscle as he is about to die.

Just as Kye breathes out his last breath, the stars in the sky begin to move into a strange formation with the moon being the center that looks like a huge eye with the moon as the iris which is pointing straight at Kye who is sprawled out on the floor with multiple people surrounding him.

A light begins to emit around Kye's body which is making smoke and a black substance drips onto the pavement which smells like shit.

"What the fuck is that shit" someone says as they hold their nose.

"HAHAHA did he shit himself" someone says which everyone laughs at.

Before someone else could say anything Kye's body shakes and starts to twitch as he does this for a few minutes the people that are surrounding him begin to ask what he is doing and as they do footsteps are heard as 2 men walk through the teens and reach Kye, who has stopped twitching now and is slowly getting up without his eyes open.

'Where am I, didn't I die' Kye says as he slowly gets up. 'and why do my eyes hurt so much' Kye thought as he continues to get up. As he fully gets up he tries to listen to everything around him but can't seem to hear anything around him besides the swaying of the leaves and the wind whistling by his face making him feel a chill down his spine.

Kye continues to listen but can't hear anything or anybody other than what he has been hearing. So Kye slowly opens his eyes expecting to feel the worst pain he has ever felt, but as he opens his eyes he feels nothing wrong. Finding nothing wrong he begins to calm down but only for a second as he realizes that there are multiple people around him and as he looks down he sees blood mixed with black stuff below his feet and he begins to understand what has happened and becomes extremely angry at this.

Looking back up he sees everyone looking at him in fear, even the two men as if he was a demon going to slay them, and as he becomes more angry they become more and more scared from his demonic appearance.

Kye not knowing why they are so scared of him shrugs it off as if he doesn't care, which he didn't really.

"Did you hit me?" Kye says in a calm voice but to the people surrounding him sounds like the reaper is talking to them.

"Y-Yes" someone says and right when the words leave his mouth he is sent flying by Kye who punched him killing the person instantly.

'Holy shit why am I so strong' Kye says as he sees the person fly away at incredible speed. Instead of being scared about it he becomes more excited as he continues to massacre the people around him and in mere seconds the people that were surrounding him were down to only 3 people and those people were the 2 that walked to Kye and the other is the one who beat Kye up.

"Fuck, shit, I don't want to die" the 2 men began going into despair as they could only stand there and watch as the people around them were beat to a pulp. The two men begin to shake and fall to the floor to beg for mercy, but as they begin to ask for mercy all they are met with are a fist to the face and a kick to the side of their head which twists their neck, killing them instantly.

The other person began to shake with fear as he saw the man fly and land right next to his face with his head bouncing around like a bobble head.

"I-I-I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean to do it, I was force to do it" The guy stammers as he says this and starts to shake in fear, but as he looks into Kye's eyes he sees that he doesn't plan to spare him so he starts to run away thinking that he should be able to at least outrun a 17 year old and one who has never cultivated at that.

Fate had it worse for him as it seems he was instantly stopped by a furious Kye who broke the guys legs and made it so he wouldn't be able to walk.

"So you have something to say to me?" Kye says with an evil smirk on his face as his long black hair flips in the air from the strong wind.

"Maybe I'll spare you from being killed" Kye says as he bends down and looks at the guy in his eyes.

"Yes, please, please-" the guy says quickly but is quickly cut off by Kye as he is annoyed by the guys begging.

"Cut to the chase and tell me," Kye says in a cold voice that could turn someone into a block of ice.

"R-Right, I-It was the Fire family who sent me" the guy stammers as he is scared of what might happen to him.

"Hmm, Fire family huh" Kye says in a whisper to himself.

"Well, anyway thanks for the information, so I guess this means goodbye now?" Kye says as he gets up. The guy who is laying on the ground lets out a breath of relief as he sees the guy leaving and makes a note in his head to tell the Fire family about this genius in disguise, but before he could even move, fear hits him like a truck and he begins sweating profusely.

"Sike" Kye says as he turns around and rushes at the guy on the ground, "Can't have anyone leak anything".

As Kye reaches the guy on the ground he lifts him up and slowly kills him by choking him to death. Dropping the body on the ground Kye begins running away from the park as the longer he is here the more likely he is to be caught and put in jail because he killed these people.

Running through the town Kye begins to remember that he doesn't know a single thing in this world as he just came back from dying and was from what he guesses transported to here. As Kye is thinking this he doesn't see that he is on the road and a truck is rushing towards him at incredible speed. By the time Kye finally sees the truck it is too late as it is only a few meters away from him.

'Shit, am I going to die again' Kye says in annoyance with himself.

What Kye doesn't know is that a being inside of him has awoken and has been watching him ever since he woke up and massacred the people from before and watches as Kye is hit by a truck with a smile on its face.
