Chapter Text
For a few months the wrold has been over run by demons, the iron gate sending them out to kill the surviving humans, while i got tasked with killing them, their blood splattering on walls and my work uniform i was working when he first spoke to me, told me to kill all of those damned demons, for me to serve the souls to him, he told me his name was Drav, i've gotten used to his voice after a few months.
I've been hearing things that aren't there lately.
whispering and loud clangs, its not real i know it's not, this place is messing with my head. i miss the quiet suburbs, i miss my mother, i miss not having to kill demons that inhabit the bodies of my friends and family.
i was out, the night air stinging my throat when i breathed, guns in hand, blasting demons and infested into the pavement, their organs spewing out their sides when the lunatics slash into them by mistake, they look too human to not be, i feel like im about to puke whenever i see them, the everlasting are the worst, i hate how much life is in their eyes when their masks fall off, and gosh paladins are the worst, traitors to humanity, chosen by the iron gate to serve and protect it, they are human, i can't bare to fight them but if i don't his voice echo's louder in my head, the only way to calm it down is by feeding it the souls iv'e collected, but if i don't give it enough he get's angry.
i have to stop day dreaming
i only have one more area before i can go back to the church and talk to Drav, i continue to walk towards the area i missed while i ran around the neighborhood trying to escape being shot in the face, im not immortal after all.
i turned the corner only to be shoved into the wall by a paladin, it's crimson spiked armor digging into my leg, it didn't appear to have any sort of weapon on it so it was trying to forcefully take mine
A: "DAMN LET GO YOU DEMON GO BACK TO HELL" the paladin seemed to flinch as i spoke but i still kicked at it, trying to get my weapon free from its grip... it's not pulling the gun towards itself, its just holding it, did it die or something? it's just staring at me, the helmet it's wearing didn't allow me to look in its eyes, it's leg was still pressed against mine and it started to draw blood, "GET OFF ME DAMN IT" it backed up.... did... did it actually listen to me? it's just staring at me... ~C r e e p y~, his voice is getting louder but i have enough souls to calm him-
?: "Andres?..."
that voice.... it came from the paladin... n-no it couldn't, i stared at it in shock, no its just the voices it isnt real,
puke
i have to vomit, oh god no
i felt the acid come up, i feel it stinging my throat
run
i have to run back to drav
i watch as the paladin inches towards me
my vision begins to fog
it's not real
i run away from the paladin
my legs feel like they are going to give out... i just need to make it back to Drav and it'll-
...
the vomit comes up and out through my mouth, the yellow stomach acid reminding me i haven't eaten today
i collapse to the ground the blood from my leg leaking out onto the cold concrete road
my hands are cold... his hands were always warm even if he was skinny... oh god i miss him... i can't forget him... i need to find him even if he's a demon or infected,
i need to see him again... i need him...
A: "Blake i miss you..." My whole body hurts... i shouldn't have gone out today... drav...is going to kill me...
i have to stop being dramatic...
i get shot everyday why is vomiting making me feel like death...
i reach down to touch the cut the paladin gave me... Oh it's a gash....
the blood is soaking into my uniform...im going to bleed out to death?
...of course...the worst way to die...damn it drav.... i blame you...
there's heavy clanking getting closer to me... oh great the paladin is here to finish the job....
I'll just... Close my eyes before getting up... yeah... i'll tear it to shreds when i open them again...
