Welcome victims- I mean readers- to my first published story. This is more of an experiment so if this story gets at least two good reviews I'll continue publishing with the next chapter coming out next week. Now without further ado, I welcome all my new readers.
Chapter One: The Story Begins
One day I was traveling through a town to a cave where I could spend the upcoming night. As expected, as I walked by, people were going inside their houses most likely afraid that I would try to kill them or something, except for a single boy who watched me until someone, who I assumed to be his mother, pulled him inside. That puzzled me but I put it out of my mind and continued walking.
By the time I had reached the cave, the sun had set and I was setting up my camp. As I was setting up my fire for dinner I felt as if I was being watched so I lit the fire and looked around and I caught a glimpse of the boy from before. He thought I did not see him but he could not fool me.
"Hey, get out here,"
"Um, sorry I just was curious who you were. I hadn't seen you around before,"
"I wouldn't expect you to, I'm a drifter, and I don't stay in one place too long,"
"Oh, so you're a hobo,"
"No, I'm just not accepted anywhere so I just go wherever so as not to cause trouble,"
"What do you mean 'trouble,'?"
"Never mind. Aren't you afraid of me?"
"Why would I be?"
"Well, I'm a drifter so usually people assume that I'm a serial killer or something stupid like that,"
"Well, are you?"
"If I say yes will you leave me alone?"
"Not since you asked that question,"
"Well, I could technically be considered a serial killer, but not by choice,"
"What do you mean?"
"If I tell you, you must promise not to tell anything that pertains to me to anyone because I will kill you,"
"Okay"
"Well it starts like this… *FLASHBACK RIPPLE*
My mother and father were scientists who worked for Team Rocket. When I was born I became very sick so they tried to find a cure. It was a miracle how long my parents were able to keep me alive but they knew that they could not force me to go on much longer so they tried something drastic. Once I was 10 they started an experiment to combine my DNA with Mewtwo's DNA by erasing the genes that caused my sickness and replacing them with his. It was terribly painful and I could not take it so one day I woke up and could not see through the test tube when my parents walked in I could not tell who they were so I unleashed my psychic powers and shattered the tube. What I saw when I got out horrified me. I had killed them. My mother had a glass shard in each of her eyes, she was dead. Then I saw my dad, he had several shards of glass buried in his chest, barely alive.
I started crying hating myself for doing it. My dad told me it was not my fault that I was just scared and did not mean to. I heard him barely holding on so I took pity on him and used my psychic powers to force the glass through and let him join my mom. Those were my first kills and I ran from them scared of what my future might hold. As I was flying away with tears in my eyes I did not notice the complex exploding behind me."
"Well go on,"
"No that's enough for tonight we both need sleep. If you come back tomorrow I'll continue my story,"
"Okay, but answer me this. What do you really look like?"
"I'll show you tomorrow, I don't have enough energy to do it tonight,"
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow then, bye,"
"He may be the one to break my curse. What do you think Adriana? Hopefully, I may be able to join you soon. Good night, love,"
