Chapter 1. The Black Mage Village.
(Dedicated to Simon- You rock, you bastard!!!!)
The Mage's face was stricken with fear and pain for an agonising few moments before he exploded, showering blood and his intestines over the room and the remaining five Mages. Smoke began to rise from the first three Mages, and they began to melt as stomach acid burned through their skin.
The remaining two Mages attempted to run, but the first had taken no more than two steps when his spine was ripped from his back by some invisible force. The Mage fell to the ground, screaming in bitter agony, before his lung where ripped out of his back.
The last Mage backed away, his hands shaking in terror, before he was lifted from the ground.
He began to squirm and writhe in the air, before he too exploded, scattering bones, blood, liver flukes and internal organs throughout the room. The three Mages had also finally wasted away, melting into a puddle of smouldering blood and charred fabric. Vivi smiled at the carnage before him, and he turned and walked from the grass hut to see a Genome looking ahead curiously. His look of confusion only lasted a moment however, because soon after, his lungs were ripped from his chest. The Genome attempted to struggle, as blood filled his throat and mouth, but his struggles were in vain as his lungs where ripped away from the trachea, and the Genome drowned. A black Mage ran forward nervously, his hands tightly gripping a staff.
"Vivi, what are you doing?" he cried, stopping several metres from the blood splattered Mage. Vivi looked ahead forlornly.
"I… I don't know…" he began, before shrugging dismissively.
Suddenly, the Mages brain exploded and began to leak out of his ears, and his dead body fell lifeless to the floor. Vivi began to walk along the sand path of the black mage village, before he came across two Genomes, huddled together in fear.
"What is it, to experience death?" asked the first Genome, resigned to his fate.
"Like falling asleep" smiled Vivi, before he caused both their heads to explode. He looked beyond the blur of blood and brain fluid, to see several Mages walking towards him.
"Don't make us do this Vivi" the first pleaded.
Vivi smiled, he didn't have time for such games. With a simple nod of his head, the first Mage exploded, spraying blood over his accomplices.
The second Mage began to spasm, and suddenly his intestines where ripped from his stomach in a shower of gore. Blood began to pour to the floor, as the intestines snaked up the Mages clothing and wrapped around his neck, suffocating him.
The remaining black mages turned tail and fled, but there was no escaping the fiery wrath of Vivi. A bolt of lightening descended and struck the leading black Mage, sending him twitching and burning to the floor. Vivi cackled insanely, and at his command, the remaining Mages exploded in blurs of chaos. Vivi laughed, and as he did so, the Black Mage Village ignited, and screams of fear and agony rang out…
"What are you doing?" asked Mikoto, tears welling behind her eyes. Vivi turned to face her, and laughed. He didn't answer her question, he simply ripped off both her arms and legs with the power of his mind. Mikoto screamed in pain as her blood poured to the floor, and Vivi smiled sadistically. Mikoto's tongue was ripped out of her mouth. She finally died, and Vivi threw her into a fire nearby, and watched with satisfaction as her body burned. Finally satisfied his work was done, Vivi walked from the burning village and into the Forest, turning once more to look at his handiwork, before disappearing into the shrubbery…
