Synopsis
Hey ya'll, this is my Second attempt at writing a story. I abandoned my other writing Account based on a few circumstances. First and foremost. This story may or may not be long and I will not be posting every day. Maybe the beginning I will post frequently, or I may not. I don't know. This is a makeup as we go story meaning even, I don't know what will happen and will just be going with the flow. Last thing the chapters will be around 700-1000 words more or less so relatively short chapters. Anyways, This Story is about a boy who was raised in the darkness by an evil group that creates child soldiers. They are called "Accursed" due to the children ending up having shining red eyes and frightening battle capabilities with a tattoo the glows ominously. They are half human and half monster/beast. Just one of these children are worth a thousand men. Though they aren't that many considering the final test to be complete is a battle royale and the last 5 standing get to be sent out to the battlefields. The Children are sold as slaves to different countries and are used as tools of war. They have no free will due to the collars they wear that acts as a crest they will punish and torture the child should they misbehave or refuse a direct order.

Chapter 1 - The Life Of Xerxes

slash!!!

Clang!!

shing!

Sounds of battle are being heard all over due to a massive war that was going on. Two different armies are fighting in order to expand their borders. The Army on the right is called Ra-Shin Empire and they are currently fighting their nemesis the Macron Alliance. These two armies have been tearing at each other's throats for centuries.

Currently the Macron Alliance is pushing back the Ra-Shin empire and are making their way to their camp. The general of the Ra-Shin empire was forced to send in their reinforcements to turn the tide. The battle continues to rage for several days and brought both countries to complete exhaustion.

This was the perfect time for a third party to step in. A Man no a Boy was sitting back and watching the battle raged on due to his master's orders and wait for them to exhaust themselves. The boy looked over his equipment and made sure everything is in order. Once he checked everything, He disappeared and reappeared in the air in the middle of the battle and landed between both armies and instantly swung his sword and created a slash that went through multiple people and a wave of blood to splatter everywhere.

Both armies were surprised and once they saw the boys bright red eyes they screamed out "IT'S AN ACCURSED". The man who screamed saw that his vision was upside down and after a split second saw a body with no head. The man was decapitated and didn't even realize it. The boy instantly started to attack the Ra-Shin empire slaughtering their men quickly.

The Macron Alliance believed the boy to be on their side and suddenly regained their vigor and continued to push the Ra-Shin empire back. Within 3 hours the rest of the Ra-Shin empire was obliterated and the Macron alliance wasn't much better off. They started to celebrate their bloody victory when suddenly the boy turned on them and started slaughtering them as well.

They were confused since they thought the boy was on their side. None the less they ready their weaken and exhausted bodies to fight back. No. You couldn't even call it a fight; it was a massacre. Once both sides have been eliminated did the boy carve the "Accursed" symbol in the middle of the battlefield with blood and bodies. They he simply vanished as if he was never there to begin with.

Leaving behind a symbol and countless butchered bodies behind.

Several hours later, we find the young boy kneeling before a man sitting on the throne in the shadows. The boy didn't say anything and waited till he was called upon. After a few minutes, the man on the throne spoke and said "Report". The boy walked slowly toward the man and handed him a scroll and immediately back down and kneeled once more.

The man quietly read through the report on the scroll and was pleased with the results though he didn't say or showed any signs of it. The man spoke once more. "I have no more use for you. Someone has decided to buy you from me for a rather exceptional price."

The doors opened up and revealed a man dressed as a noble with a pig like face. The man was fat and was wearing typical noble clothes with several jewelry indicting that he's rich and important. The man looked at the boy and subtly licked his lips. He ordered the boy to follow him, and the boy followed along.

An hour later...

we find the boy in a very extravagant mansion filled with maids and butlers and a few slaves here and there. The boy was led to the dungeon where they went and hooked him up in a cell and the pig man licked his lips and pulled out his belt and immediately whipped the boy across his body. He was expecting to hear screams since he has a fetish where he likes to inflict pain on young boys and hear them scream. It one of his favorite past times.

He always wanted one of the Accursed because of the fact they are young children and obedient. Though no one knows how they are made or trained. They say the Accursed don't feel pain and he wanted to test the theory.

He continued to try and torture and inflict pain on the boy but nothing he does works. He eventually grew tired of it and decided to call it a day. The boy just stayed there motionlessly and just decided to sleep and see what his new master decides for him.
