I was on my way home from vacation, I had been driving for a little over 4 hours and still had a distance to go. There was not one hotel nearby, I was on a road cutting through the Arizona dessert not one place in site.
I was tired it had been a long day I wanted some sleep I could sleep in the truck but the sky outside looked so beautiful.
I reluctantly got out and grabbed my tent from the back of the truck. It was a full moon out tonight no clouds and I could see all the stars like a hundred light bulbs on a ceiling.
I quickly pitched the tent which I learned how to do in the marines I started walking back to the truck to grab a lamp and blanket when I heard it.
"Bam" The sound of a tailgate slamming and muffled voices. My truck was down the road 150 meters away. "I don't think they can see my truck" I thought. I crouched down and shuffled my way over. 100 meters away and I still couldn't hear, it was hard to tell but It looked like two men and they were carrying something I couldn't quite make it out. I snuck up till I was 50 meters away and heard the first words. "C'mon why's this bastard so heavy, he ever go for a run"
"Shut up Josh let's hurry and get the shovels out"
They sat what they were carrying down and walked back to the truck. I wasn't stupid I know they're burying a body. I started to crawl back to grab my phone. "How do I get so unlucky 10's of Km on either side of me and they have to park by me how unlucky damnit"
They get to the truck one opens the front door and grabs something I can't see well but it definitely doesn't seem like a shovel.
"POP"
"Arhhhhhh" I look down there's blood flowing from my chest it rushing out like a drain I quickly put my hands over it but it doesn't seem good my eyes are heavy. "Kha" I cough up a mouthful of dark red blood.
I could die right now but it's funny I'm not thinking of anything at the moment family, I have a dad but he rarely calls me, mom she passed away from cancer when I was 7, girlfriend haven't had one since middle school.
"Haha little prick we got lucky Josh caught site of you"
I look up there's a tall man about 6,4 he has a ginger beard hiding his face with a baseball cap cover his eyes. In his hands is black AK-47 as soon as I see it I know I'm not surviving that round to the chest.
"Ugh, now we got two bodies and a truck let's just burn them all" he goes back to his truck and grabs a gas can.
"Damnit" I'm not religious but I find myself looking at the sky maybe to see someone or something but there's nothing my eyes grow heavy and close my body fall over.
"Thump"
"Wssshhhhhh"
Wind? why is it so loud let me relax
"WWWWSSSSSSSHHHHHH"
Ugh so annoying wait wind? Somehow I start to feel it the cold wind on my face and something else?
What is that? It makes me want to throw up, the strongest scent of blood one can imagine is hitting my nose like swimming in a pool of blood.
I try to open my eyes but I can't they seem glued shut. My ears start to adjust and try to pick up any sounds.
"Splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat" "splat"
As my senses start coming back so do memories, memories that aren't mine but are merging with my memories
It hurts it hurts terribly so bad I want to pull all the hair out of my head but I can't I can't move at all like my body is glued In place.
10 minutes 30 minutes 60 minutes 100 minutes 1,000 minutes
I have no way of knowing how much time went by but the excruciating pain has resided and now a new pain takes over my body.
Anger, pure anger absolute hatred from the bottom of my soul. The memories are playing out like a movie in my head it's hard to believe at first but eventually it comes to me likes it's the norm and that's when I start to realize this isn't me anymore I take on a new identity the identity of this body that should have been dead but is now somehow alive.
Loki Nergal a Demon from the Demon Night Tribe of the Demon clan
There were 10 Great Demon Tribes that always had a bit of competition against each other to be the best tribe but would never openly fight under the patriarchs gaze.They had to focus their fighting strength on the other tribes that were battling for there land. Even though the demon clan was only a middle sized clan it's territory stretch 50 million square miles just thinking about it one could see how unrealistically big this planet must be.
The splats that were surrounding him were the sounds of his brothers, sisters, parents, friends, fiancé as they all there bodies of the Demon Night Tribe were pushed into a deep crevice and hit the rocks below.
This world seems to be a world where the strong rule where beings can send mountains flying and cut down a forest with a wave of the sword.
His Tribe was betrayed by 5 of the 10 Great Demon Tribe. It would seem that the leader of the Night Tribe, Elder Bach had an affair with one of the patriarchs wives. This infuriated the patriarch who said the Night clan had a plan to rebel. Which lead to there demise.
Loki laid on the cold sharp rocks he scratched at the dry blood keeping his eyes shut. He slowly opened them all around him was rocks dyed red bodies impales by swords or spears lying all around him mangled beyond belief by falling so far he look up and he couldn't see any light only pitch black darkness he slowly got up and looked at his body.
There's was light coming from some of the rocks and the walls around him it looked like glowing moss that show a bright blueish green.
Glossy black hair that hung down to his shoulders dark tan skin which seemed pretty normal until he touched 2 incredibly sharp almost pitch black horns sprouting from his temples they weren't long only about 2 inches. He stood up and walked around in his new body he tried not to look at the bodies as these were all people very close to them he could bare to keep seeing them like this.
He eventually found a pit that was about 30 meters deep and started to put all the bodies of his tribesmen in to rest.
When he came across his finance and parents tears started falling he screamed but all it did was echo endlessly in the dark void.
