The Blood of the Aswangs

The air in the gym grew tense as Prometheus and a demon lady locked eyes. The silence came as Prometheus' eyes quivered. But, in the shadows of the theater, Miguel sat quietly with a spotlight lighting on him. He seems like a figure that is completely insignificant, only wearing a dark blue hoodie and some baggy jogging pants. Yet, he has a power, an undeniable weight in his presence as seven knights protected him at all costs.The two cosmic beings argued. Miguel's eyes held wisdom. He was an idiot. Definitely the stupidest fucking person on Earth. Bullied by normies and laughed at by bullies. Lacking any form of respect. But unbeknownst to many, he was, in fact, the Prince of Aswangs. His existence was so important that he was far more important than anything the Main World had to offer.The Multiverse whispered tales of his potential. The very fabric of the world's existence and salvation rests upon his shoulders and his alone. Miguel's significance, however, was shrouded a mystery.This is the story of his many misadventures and his studious preparation and hardcore training as he finally understands something. In the cosmos where destiny does not exist, Miguel listened to the yelling of his master, where it becomes clear what his story is about. Thru this story, he shall learn that self-discovery, resilience, and the profound lesson of respect, is not innate nor earned because of power, but thru the faith one has in the strength within and the respect and humility he gives toward what he cannot comprehend.And right there... In that moment... He found something...And that was hope.Nine Months Earlier...A man wearing a mask with goggles that show the expression of his eyes through cartoonish eyes that change color enters the world through a portal holding a pair of sticks. He wore a black jacket, a black polo shirt, black stretchy jeans, black socks, and black crocs. He walks toward a fine-looking house on top of a small hill. He tries to look for the doorbell. "Shit. I now understand Jedan," he said, looking for the doorbell. "Fuck. Been a while since I was last here... Wonder if it's still in the same... AHA!!! Shit... I think that was a snail. Ugh... Ugh!" He takes out his glove revealing slime all over it. He warps it away using some sort of bubble magic. "Fuckin' found you, motherfucker."*ding dong!*A man opens the door, revealing a fat yet muscular mestizo man with a big mustache,"Oh. You're his guardian in this universe...""Sorry. Do I know you or are you some of those cosplaying homo friends of his?""Okay, homophobe. Lemme tell you somethin' about Miguel. He's a good kid with a sexuality THAT MUST NEVER BE CONTROLED OR QUESTIONED!!! GOT THAT!?!?"The man takes out a brass knuckle from his pocket. "You sure about this, pal?""Where the fuck's your kid?""He ain't man. He's a bastard. But I own him. You his real Dad?""You could say that.. Where the fuck is he?""Probably out there sucking his friend's dicks like the f** he is-..."The man with the mask is angered and punches the old man in the balls, causing blood to spill out of his crotch. "I suggest you don't touch him again, prick. Be glad you aren't as worthless as the you from the universe where he was born a girl, you fucking closet perv. Where... is he...?""School... He... is... at... school..."Later..."Heh... Look over there..." said Jedan, the kid with glasses and curly red hair who stared at a tall jock aggressively walking in. "It's Seth. Guy who steals girls.""Pretty sure he stole the girl I liked back in 4th Grade," said Miguel, the chubby kid with black hair."Hey, look!" laughed Anna, as a jock passes by. "It's the fuck-face Jose. Pretty sure there's a porno out there with him in it. Surprised he isn't expelled yet."Chris, their friend who is also a muscular jock and sitting with them with his golden curly hair and glasses, plays mobile legends at the table until a tall jock throws a bottle of semen into Miguel's face.Chris stands up and grabs the bully by the neck. "Hey, jerkface! Not cool, bro!""Could you sharpen up the insults there, bud?" asked Jedan, as Anna rolls her eyes and facepalms."Okay. How about jerkwad mcflurry face?"Miguel is about to cry."Dang. Whatever... Not cool, bro... Apologize and clean him up..." said Chris."Why would I wanna apologize the freakazoid nobody. He smells like ass in P.E. class and probably finishes in his underwear for a living."Christopher grabs him by the head and slams it on the table, squeezing it.However, several jocks appear and face Christopher.The three friends stand up together, except for Miguel.The jocks punch down Chris and overpower him, but Miguel stands up and grabs a fork.Miguel prepares to stab him in the hand only for his hand to be grabbed by the man with an armored Grim Reaper costume with a skull mask, black body armor, and hood."I suggest you don't do anything stupid, kid..." said the man."You don't understand! This guy's been doing this crap to me for so long! And now-...!" Miguel's eyes turn blue. "I'm powerful enough to take him out...""Yeah. But think of the repercussions. If you use your new... 'talents...' Now... You could very well cause an uproar. People will hunt you down... And they will kill you...""Who the fuck is this cosplaying nerd-?" asked the light-skinned jock who threw the stuff into his face only for the man in the Reaper costume to blast his fist into his face causing blood to splatter all over the ground.The jock's face bleeds and he screams in absolute pain. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"The Reaper turns to them. "Self-defense."The jocks try to attack but suddenly, they all fall to the ground with broken legs.The principal walks in. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN-!?"The man with the silly goggles walks in and shows the principal a picture of something. The man smiles underneath his mask.The principal sighs and nods. "Understandable. Have a nice day.""I will also be taking this Goddamned school as your new principal, bitch..." said the man."You can't do that!""Papers already been done, fuckwad. Pack your shit and leave, you fucking rapist."The principal's eyes widen. "No! I... I wouldn't-!"Suddenly, a group of strange cloaked men take the man away."Thank you, minions!" smiled the man with the silly goggles, squinting his eyes. "Anyway. Ibarra." He turns to Miguel.Miguel frowns. "He was MINE!!!" Miguel transforms into an Aswang in front of everyone.One girl, a pretty-looking one, smirks upon seeing Miguel's true form. "Hm... Isn't he interesting?"The people back away from him."Aswang!" yelled one student."No way!""What the Hell!?" asked another.The new "principal" smiles. "Listen up, you bitch-ass NERDS!!! I am known as Prometheus. I am a very powerful and god-like Wizard who rules over several thousand worlds under my empire known as Maharlica-'152!"Everyone snickers as The Reaper rolls his eyes."I am the sole Avatar of Bathala, the one true God! Not Messiah, sadly! I am merely just a humble Avatar who does what he tells me to do! Yes, yes! Sorry, dear children! I know! Could've been more amazing! I know right? No! Merely just a Wizard with magical bubbles and what-nots!""Prove it!" yelled one kid."HOCUS POCUS MOTHERFUCKER!!!" Prometheus punches him in the face.The kid cries and grabs his jaw. "THAT DIDN'T PROVE ANYTHING, YOU WACKADOODLE!!!"Prometheus flexes his hand and strangles the kid with telekinesis, pulling him into his hand and strangling him. "Pipe down, Acosta! Perverted FUCK!!! I know what you do in the girl's bathroom you PIECE OF SHIT!!! You High School kids are nothing more than perverted idiotic weaklings who have nothing to do with their lives than fuck each other and rebel against your perverted slash mid-life crisis-ed teachers. I SAY..." He drops Acosta to the ground. "I don't care! I respect it! Fuck these teachers, honestly! They've been terrible to me in my world, too! Apparently... every version of me is just that tragic! BUT!!! If anybody MESSES WITH THAT CHILD THERE!!!" he points to Miguel. "All of you will be sorry..." he squints his goggles' eyes."Prove it..." said Acosta.Prometheus warps out a stick and bashes it into the kid's arm, stabbing it.He screams in pain."YOU... F-...! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW POWERFUL MY PARENTS ARE!?!?""Oh! You mean the Mayor? Bitch please. I have colonized your world. SEE!?!?" Prometheus activates a hologram from his watch revealing how the world is being subjugated by his magical Wizard people."This... This is inhumane! You can't do this!" yelled Anna."Uh-huh. Yeah... I actually can because I'm trying to save this world.""From being primitive compared to yours? Resources? What the hell is your deal, dude?""No... Obviously, there is a great evil out there and I'm trying to make sure that this world sticks the shit together. I'm here to protect this world. And the person that I chose as guardian is this kid over here..." he grabs Miguel's head and forces him to stand up."Dude. Get your hand OFF OF ME!!!" growled Miguel, pushing him away. He ticks the joints in his batwings.*tik tik tik tik tik tik tik tik tik...*He slithers his prehensile forked tongue like a snake."Chill out, dude! We're cool!" smiled Prometheus. "Trust me, my dude, man!""What the shit are you talking about!?" asked Miguel. "If this is some sick prank again, I swear to God, Tyrone!" he turned to the jock The Reaper punched earlier, who is bleeding on the ground."Bro! Easy! I know why you kids were acting edgy! These kids throw cum and piss and shit on your head like... every day... BUT WHO CARES!?!? I'm here, now!" smiled Prometheus."What about us?" asked Jedan."You guys? Well, this boy does need his servants! After all, he is the Prince of Aswangs!!!""What? I... I just discovered I'm a freak yesterday. You're saying I'm the PRINCE OF FREAKS!?!?" asked Miguel."Yeah! Isn't it amazing!? Don't worry, kid. I already MURDERED your abusive stepfather. From now on, this artificial copy of mine will act as a principal to your school, change its curriculum, and make these lions to your sheep into sheep to your lion.""Don't lions protect sheep?""Read the bible, kid. Lions eat sheep in the Bible. It's the Bible. Craaaaazy stuff there. Reeeal crazy stuff there. Y'know God made She-Bears eat kids in there? Fun stuff, no?""God isn't real!" yelled the atheist kid.Prometheus warps out a fish and slaps it in the kid's face. "Those who don't appreciate their nation's language is worse than A SMELLY FISH, BITCH!!!""I was... commenting on religion!" sobbed the atheist kid."Oh..." said Prometheus, who slaps him again with a fish."Why do you hate these kids so much!?" asked Miguel. "This is abuse. You shouldn't hurt them for no reason.""Oh, really... Even if they... BULLIED ME!?!?""Whaaaaaaaat!?!?!" asked Chris.Prometheus takes off his mask, revealing an older burned and scarred Miguel. "B-B-B-BIBINGKA, BITCH!!!" he sneered. "I AM MIGUEL IBARRA!!! RULER OF THE MULTIVERSE!!! AAAAAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! AND I WILL PSYCHOLOGICALLY DESTROY... EVERY SINGLE BASTARD WHO RUINED ME BACK IN MY WORLD BY RUINING YOU!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"Miguel, Jedan, Chris, and Anna all stare at Prommetheus.Chris falls over, fainting."WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!" yelled one kid in the background.
