Chapter 34 - 5[]Revənge

Silence covered the world darkness wrapped it like a present, all my senses disappeared and even my swirling thoughts slowly stopped and diminished.

A cold sensation engulfed my body and freezing radiance ignited in my chest, Silence was the only thing that I could think about.

Anyone who stays here will surely go mad, it was utter nothingness...

***

A monster soaked with pain, pain that bites into every cut and every Crack in his flesh and bones, the Dweller was twisting like a fish out of water or like a bird on fire.

He never thought that this damn human will be able to cut through his chest for the second time he was absolutely furious, in fact this is why he still exists.

Moon dwellers are fueled by hatred and revenge so sometimes they could even leave their target with mere injuries then disappear, if their fury subsides that is.

But this is Cerberus dominating the dwellers mind, not by intelligence nor power but by fury and hatred, the reason why, despite his half opened chest he still exist is hatred.

But there is another reason why he still exists and that that's his target still exist.

The Dweller was in pain but he stood up forcing his ethereal body to move forward he swayed weakly, he looked in the direction of the human and saw him.

The human body swayed and slowly descending to the earth falling Unconscious, his blood painted the ground red.

His shoulder was half gone as if smashed by a projectile, the blood extended to the shape of a small tree.

His body was motionless yet not dead somehow.

The Dweller ignited with hatred he felt injustice, how is he not dead?

He moved forward as his claws caressed the dust on the ground, his invisible blood was slowly turning visible.

The blood of the Dweller covered a wide area not something anyone would expect from a Cerberus body, but this wasn't exactly his body.

He moved forward slowly reaching the human body, he opened his jaw ready to eat.

***

Silence extended through the horizon of my mind and slowly extinguishing every candle that used to keep light in the sanity of my mind.

My body was growing colder and colder, for the first time I felt death I was sure of it, am dying...

A "time" passed unnoticed by me, then fire ignited in my chest it wasn't burning flames but instead it was burning pain, churning my flesh and burning it.

I thought- "hehe~ugh-shit, is that the gem trying to turn me into a walking corpse?"

Thousands of sharp roots grew under my skin and throughout my tissues, it felt like needles were shooting in every direction twisting and turning and even increased in numbers swarming my very core.

I couldn't see hear and I couldn't scream, as I was devoured by the gem, but this time there is no warm voice giving me another chance or another life, maybe when I survived the Cerberus infant attack dying, that it was a one time pass or a gift.

I tried to move my body I wanted to hold my chest, yet I couldn't, it was like being eaten while being paralyzed.

***

As the Dweller found his chance to devour the paralyzed human, he lunged with his bare teeth to bite the human's neck off...

And he did, taking a bite out off of it and swallowing it, it wasn't going to feed his hunger yet his hunger was diminishing by mere revenge, truly a luxurious taste only for the most lucky.

Yet... the moon eclipse didn't stop which meant that this dead body is somehow alive!

Fury reignited in the core of the abominable beast but before he could go for another bite

In a fraction of a second his head was smashed with a rock, disoriented the beast took a second to realize what happened, before he could his head was kicked.

Invisible blood spilled down his head.

He looked and saw it the corpse stood up his head twisted resting in a weird angle almost as if unable to lift the weight of his head up, with blood covering hid torn clothes and with neck torn off and a smashed shoulder, his flesh was clearly seen, he looked terrible and horrifying, the gem in his chest glowed red.

Cerberus shivered with fear blinked, the corpse then attacked this time biting the neck of the Dweller.

The Dweller was shook and finally attacked the human corpse.

The human let go then moved so fast, he got around the Dweller and grabbed his tail which still has a head at the end of the tail, even though the Dweller was invisible the corpse seemed to be able to see him clearly.

With one strong pull the Dweller lost his tail, Cerberus twitched in pain then turned around hoping to catch the human but he was too slow.

The human was underneath him already, the human corpse pushed both hands into the chest of the bleeding Dweller and torn his rib off with one hand, then immediately pushed the other through the chest reaching his heart.

Cerberus lunged backwards with all his might giving himself only few more seconds of life.

He was weak blooded and without a tail with even some broken bones,

they were two corpses facing each other but one of them has an advantage.

As Cerberus attack hoping to do as much damage as possible in his last seconds, the human had a rock grabbed behind his back, the second Cerberus got close enough his head was smashed, but this time it was different, Cerberus fell dead.

His head was smashed open, and the invisible monster turned visible, the guts of his smashed head were clear to the eye.

Slowly the ethereal body engulfed in smocky black fire, hid body turned to dust then to smoke and then disappeared.

The human stood motionless like a real corpse, as the veil of the moon eclipse disappeared something went back to it's rightful place.

The right hand of the human turned deformed and became an abomination of multiple claws in many wrong places, many eyes and many protrudings out of place, and the skin turned scaly with some small black feathers but many of these feathers had no hair.

Under the moon light, a gem glowed red, an abomination of a human stood motionless.

The unrotting corpse...
