World Eater
2016, January 21st 9:36 AM
"I remember it all like it was yesterday morning...my mother running in a panic.."
Mother: "Sano we have to get going right now!"
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "Mom it is 9:36 in the morning...where are we-"
She stopped me mid sentence and looked at me with an estranged look like... something or someone was coming for us. After she looked at me for a while a big explosion went off North from our house. The pressure of the room became heavier for some reason and everything had this red outline.
Mother: "We have to get out of here now! Pack whatever you need and only what you need, we are leaving this place."
"She yelled this at me with such a quiet tone it disturbed me but I listened nonetheless and did what she told me. Out of pure fear and safety I brought a bat with me. She took me to our car in the back instead of the front and drove South of Shibuya station. I was confused as to why we weren't going North so I checked behind us."
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "Oh my-"
"I turned back around and was on the verge of tears. What I saw wasn't normal, no it wasn't real at all! What I saw was multiple men and women being eaten by other men and women. My mother turned around and saw that I looked scared shitless."
Mother: "Don't look outside, just go to sleep and trust mommy…"
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "Okay mom…"
"I looked at my mom through the complexion of her rear mirror...she was tearing up and breaking down. I decided to listen to her and sleep. I woke up and I checked the time on my phone. 11:45 am...I looked at my mom and she was only looking outside to her left. Out of pure curiosity I looked outside as well and...we weren't moving at all was the first thing I realized before I looked. I decided to look back at my mother and then the broken window- THE WINDOW WAS BROKEN! My heart instantly shot up and I got worried."
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "M-mom…?"
"I decided to slowly look and my mom was... basically eaten. The weird men and women ate her and I didn't know why this came to be. Her shoulders were eaten through and you could see her arteries covered in blood. I held in my crying...I held in every urge to scream. All I could do was look at what used to be my mom...looked like a vessel."
Mother: "S-sano…"
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "M-Mom?"
Mother: "I am so sorry...I couldn't ...protect you and me…"
"As she said this sentence she coughed up chunks of blood and was crying each time in pain."
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "You'll be alright...right? You can still drive us home?"
"I was trying to be optimistic as much as I could but then...silence took the room. My mother...drew her last breath..in front of me. There was nothing I could do. Nothing I could do to save her. It's like I was being punished for something I didn't even do. I cursed god out in my head, I yelled to the top of my longues without caring what happened to me."
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "WHY...What did I do to DESERVE THIS!!! MY MOTHER….MY OWN MOTHER….WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE ME?!"
"I was crying and didn't know what to do. I decided to just lay down and cry myself to sleep but then"…"a noise."
Mother (Eater form): "RAGGGH"
"My mother woke up and was alive! But I could already tell something wasn't right in the first place. Her eyes had no pupils and she reached to grab me with weird movement. I moved into the trunk of our car and started pleading:
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "M-mom, please tell me you're okay. You're alive right? Please just tell me!"
"She didn't answer any of my questions but continually struggled to break free from her seatbelt from being strapped into the driver seat. I already knew she was gone. I already figured that out...but I didn't want to accept it. For an hour I pleaded with her and she didn't stop. I looked around for something...anything that could help me...Then I saw what my mom had in the front seat next to the passenger seat. A handgun. I was scared but the only thing running through my mind…"I have to let my mom rest...in peace".
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "Mom...please move over.."
"With those very words I ran outside the car and got into the passenger seat and took the gun. As I was reaching for the gun a man ran up on me from behind and being scared to hold a handgun...I shot..first...I shot him right in the head and he dropped like a fly. I looked around before doing anything and saw loads of the same looking man, all covered in blood. I didn't say or do anything but as I went to open the door, I heard loads of footsteps running toward me. This shook the very ground I was standing on and I rushed back into the car and decided to stay in the trunk. For hours no...for a day I waited for each and every man to leave the vicinity of the car. I had food and a gallon of water and milk so I was going to be fine. But that wouldn't last me…"
"2-3 days later...I shot my mom...4 days after that...I ate her. After eating her I felt sick to my stomach but there was nothing else to eat and nothing to do. My stomach felt like it was tearing up, piece by piece. I was barely holding onto what kept me human, as I was yelling like an animal! After all the pain, after all the suffering, I passed out...A day...maybe even two passed. I woke up, in the back of the trunk, feeling restless but not hungry? I've been asleep for days but I'm...not hungry? I was confused and just waited out time, stupidly. A day passed, I wasn't hungry and I was so confused.
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: "W-why am I not hungry…"
"The very moment I said that a Waker ran up onto the car I was inside of and banged on the rear window on the right of me. I jumped up, scared, but...it looked so tasty…"
(8 year old) Sano Kujou: What the heck am I even thinking? Why does it look so tasty...and why does the thought of eating it satisfy my wants…
"In my head I thought to myself, "No I shouldn't eat it...I SHOULDN'T!" But I wanted to eat it. I wanted to devour it whole, limb by limb, and enjoy every single part of it's dead corpse."
So with every fiber of his being, despite him holding himself back. For the first time ever in history...A man made to eat Wakers was born. As Sano Kujou's eyes turned golden, in the same swift motion, he kicked down the door the Waker was on. Simultaneously kicking the door over the Waker and then punching away at it. He kept punching, and punching, and punching! Where did this strength come from?
In a Waker, there is a radioactive bio component, which gives them a powerful bite, superhuman strength, and the bloodlust for human blood. When consumed, it can go into the human body and merge into their DNA on a molecular scale. This isn't the case with animals and will kill them. Not all humans can survive this change in the body, if anything it's a 97% risk to do so. But without knowing the risks, Sano Kujou, a kid nonetheless, was able to gain the perks of a Waker and now lusts for the blood of Wakers.
Without knowing what was what, he took a chunk out of its neck with a bite. He started ravishing in the blood of the Waker and enjoyed his meal. When Sano Kujou came back to consciousness, he understood everything he just did. Usually people would be scared, hell even shocked of what has become of themselves. Sano Kujou was...calm. He accepted quickly what he thought he was and what he needed to do. He was no longer afraid to go outside anymore. He took his mother out of the car and buried her in a grave. Giving his final prayers and a last tear, he grabbed his hoodie and wrapped it around his waist. He turned back as he said goodbye and vowed he would kill all Wakers. This is the day Sano Kujou, our protagonist of this story, became the "World Eater".
