"Boy the school called again you fightin in school?!" Said a man who lurked in the door way of a teenager's room glaring at the teenager sitting at the desk in the room an open text book on the top of the desk.

"Ahh huh.. " Came the slow lazy answer from the red head who had his head bent a pencil in one hand. He knew his father had been drinking. He was always drinking since his job had fired him. Golden eyes looked up at the man in the door way who growled softly.

"Boy don't you smart mouth me!" A hand reached towards him before the red head glared coldly.

"Then go back to school and learn something like I'm trying to do.." The words came with cold precision picking apart the man's statement before the lanky teen stood.

"What did you say to me?!" The hand grabbed the teenager's shirt one fist raised to slam into the side of that pale face. Blood dripped from the split lip as the teenager narrowed his eyes.

"Do you mind? I have school tomorrow how am I supposed to explain this to the teachers?" Said the teenager his head turned to the side from the force of the blow.

He didn't move other then that. He knew better then to fight back or say anything else. It only made it worse. Golden eyes peered at blood shot brown ones before the man snarled.

"I'll kill you, ya little shit!" The yell made the teenager close his eyes as the blows came. Just when he thought he wouldn't want to fight back. The stubborn pride he had made him react. One hand snapped forwards catching the fist that had been aimed with drunken stupor at him.

"Try it you old drunk.. Compared to you I'm a Fucking god!" With that the red head pushed with his fist.

"I'm sick of the beatings! I'm sick of smelling like a brewery!" Said the red head one fist swinging as he finally fought back. He felt a sickening sense of relief as his fist made contact with the man's head. He smirked as the man who was his father went down on his knees.

"I'm sick of you! I wish you'd just go the hell away and leave me alone!" Continued the red head his foot striking the man in the chest making him fall back. He never thought he could kill someone. He never thought that their fighting would get so bad..

Then again he didn't count on them activating suddenly.

The red aura appeared swirling around him his hair floating up as he let his hand drop as his father looked at him wide eyed.

"Demon child..Devil's spawn..." Said the man as he made the sign of the cross at his own son.

"What's the matter daddy don't want to beat on someone who can fight back?" The sign of the cross made the red head who'd spoken snort, spitting blood off to the side.

"I told you.. Compared to you I'm a god!" Said the red head as his father started to crawl backwards from him. One step then another slow and steady as he followed his father's movements.

"No! You stay back! You go back to work.. Finish your homework!" Said his father trying so hard to get to his feet.

One foot swung forwards snapping towards the man's flesh covered Tibia breaking it on impact. The howl that came from the man brought him such mind blowing pleasure. It was so nice not to be the weak one. To not be staring at his own blood on the floor.

Fingers flexed as he smirked tilting his head "Good bye old man.." Said the Red head as he brought one fist at a down to angle his arm turning as he gathered more power then slammed his fist into the man's Sternum making him gasp before pushing his fist upwards driving the man's bones up into organs and flesh.

The man dropped and did not move..

He was free. The thing that tied him to this place was gone. He slid down the wall his head resting on his knees. His mother would be disappointed in him. The bile in his stomach raised to his throat as he sat before he swallowed it. The man deserved it.. He wouldn't show weakness. Never again would he be on the ground while someone hurt him.

Fingers flexed as he stared at them wonderingly. These fingers, his own fingers delivered him from it. What else could they do? What was he capable of? He stood bloodied fingers straying to splay against his closet as he opened the door grabbing some clothes and his extra bag.

He'd find his own way and screw the rest of the world. No one worried over him. Not one person who knew he was beaten did anything about it.

He was alone in the world and this suited him just fine.

Into the shower letting the hot water wash the remains of blood from his body hair soaked and hanging as he sat letting the spray wash down his back.

Golden eyes closed as he rested his head against his knees once more his mouth curved in a frown. He had about maybe an hour before someone called the cops. They always did an hour after the yelling and the sounds of violence. The cops could never catch his father doing it. Well they wouldn't be finding him this time.

He'd rise from the watery silence grabbing a towel he dried then dressed. He had purpose now. He had a reason to start moving.

That had been a year ago..

Now he was the leader of a group of people, thieves who were very good at what they did.

He had one rule.. no one stole from the poor in his group. Always from the militia groups who were trying to attack Evos and always from the Evos who attacked humans..

In other words from Providence and Van Kleiss's group. He hated both of them equally.

One for the humans, the other for the Evos.

In his group both were welcome and both were judged.

Only one person in his group was closer then the others to him. Gin the beautiful Silver Dancer.. The one who had joined him first. The boy who'd taught him to steal. The boy who had taken him in and given him knowledge.

The boy who was currently standing next to him watching the Providence Agents surround the two of them. Raising one hand the red head smirked "Gin you want some this time?" Said the red head before the boy with silver hair shook his head silently.

"Suit yourself.." With that he was off and moving red hair flowing behind him. It was like dancing with deadly results. Keep moving don't hold still. Don't give them an easy target. He'd continue moving till he saw the Tank suddenly being tossed by something. Golden eyes widened before the Tank came down slamming into the ground driving him into it as well. That Red Aura appeared engulfing him as he glared stepping from the Crater holding the Tank above his head.

"I'm sorry, is this yours?" There he stood red hair writhing around his shoulders a cold smile coming. How dare they throw a Tank at him..

His arm just barely moved fingers curling as he directed his energy forwards letting it push the Tank from his palm towards the men in front of him.

"I don't wanna play with this anymore, you can have it back Provi.." Said the Red head before the Tank dropped into the crowd of men with white uniforms and guns.

A man in Green stood for a moment his hand to his ear before his hands snapped forwards two swords falling out of their holsters. This was Agent Six, and no one was more deadly then him.. The Grunts looked relieved, then in the same few minutes scared out of their minds.

"I'm sorry, I don't really wanna fight you anymore.." With that those hands raised white hot light flickering at the black clad fingers as golden eyes narrowed.

"Another time Agent Six.." With that the red head brought his hand down sending the white hot light towards the ground dust and smoke clouding the area choking those without helmets who were too close.

It was the first time they'd fought against him, and it was the first time he'd gotten away..

Six was not happy. White was not happy..

This was not good for those who worked under the two men. Six was fair, and the man would listen to you if you had a point.. White though thought he knew everything better then others. Neither of them knew what to do about the demon that was suddenly advancing in their little battle against Evos neither for them nor against them.

He was Gray..

The in between of the two sides.

He was dangerous, yet there were times he chose not to attack them. There were even times when the man would show up and drive back the thing attacking them.

He was unreadable and unpredictable.

Most of all though he was a death bringer.

This earned him the name Exodus from the lower Evos who he would protect from Van Kleiss's recruitment efforts.

It earned him the term The Bloody from the new recruits in Providence. Those who'd fought against him and seen his horrible red light. To them he was like some sort of god of death.

Van Kleiss wanted to recruit him badly though Exodus would have none of it. He simply would ignore the man's efforts making Kleiss angry.

Finally Exodus happened to be in an area meeting with someone who had heard of his power. Someone who in the future would be a strong enemy for Providence. No-Face the four armed oddity behind the wall of the strange barrier they were trapped in.

"You said you could get us out.." Said No-Face his arms folded.

"Yea I did, but I didn't say I would.. Learn to listen" Exodus said his arms folded his back to the wall as he leaned against it.

"So you won't help us?!" Said No-Face his hands pressing against the barrier.

"..Not yet.. Your still too damn impatient.." Exodus started to walk away from the barrier before he stopped.

"Exodus please, you are a god help us.." No-Face pushed against the barrier as Exodus turned around walking back towards the barrier.

"If I help you Providence will simply put you back, I can't have that happening but your a loose cannon." Exodus shook his head quietly eyes closing.

"I won't! I'll stay away from Providence! I'll listen to you!" Said No-Face before he too fell silent.

Van Kleiss landed on one of his strange carriers as Exodus glared turning to face the man one brow raising.

"...What do you want Kleiss.." Said Exodus looking slightly annoyed. The man bothered him for some reason a cold glare coming as Van Kleiss brushed himself off.

"Exodus I simply wanted to talk to you without Providence butting in.." Van Kleiss said walking forwards closer.

Exodus glared his hands dropping to his sides "I bet you do.. You seem to think I'm interested in joining your little team.."

"Why wouldn't you be? What could you possibly have to do that is more important then destroying Providence?" Said Van Kleiss the fingers on one hand twitching slightly.

"...It comes near me your going to lose it.." Exodus narrowed his eyes his mouth curling more into a dark frown.

"My your in a bad mood today aren't you?" Van Kleiss said pleasantly enough his hand continuing to reach out merely to brush back something from Exodus's arm.

Exodus glared before his eyes glowed that red aura appearing, before he vanished appearing next to No-Face who turned his head looking to Exodus.

"Something bothers you about him?" No-Face said turning towards Van Kleiss.

"I don't like anyone who eats their own kind.." Exodus said before tapping the barrier with one knuckle.

"Cute, apparently you think that will stop me from achieving my goal..Fine then I'll simply leave you with this.." Van Kleiss tossed a scrap of white out letting it catch in a bush before getting back onto his carrier leaving.

Exodus stared at the white cloth wondering for a moment why Van Kleiss would bring it to him. Exodus vanished then reappeared once more on the other side of the barrier.

"Exodus..Please.." No-Face said sounding wistful before sighing.

"Fine, but you will owe me..In the future when I need you I shall appear before you and you will repay me this favor.." Exodus said holding one hand over the barrier.

Energy, everything possessed energy it was his to control. His to manipulate, to mold how he pleased. The barrier failed in that single spot for merely a moment as No-Face stepped out.

"You have my promise Exodus.." Said No-Face before turning to go.

"I'll hold you to it.." Said Exodus before he vanished in a flicker of red energy..

Arriving at his hideout he was surprised to find his partner wasn't there. He rather found the place in ruins one hand clenching as he tilted his head back. "This is..A mess.. Was he messing with one of his plants.." Exodus said before he found it..

'Dear Exodus,

I'm sure by now you've found this.

Oh how I wish I could have seen your face seeing the lovely mess we left for you..

How loyal are you to your partner?

If you wish to prove your loyalty then come to me I'll be waiting for you with him..

If you try any tricks your partner will perish.'

Exodus crumpled the note letting out a growl. Gin was counting on him, Gin who had taught him to harness his powers. Gin who had been his confidant and his support. Golden eyes flashed red for a moment as the ground under him trembled. Kleiss had gone too far this time.

At Van Kleiss's Castle..

"Tell me little boy do you really think the death bringer will come here? I am the god here.." Said Van Kleiss his arms folded.

"When he comes he will bring nothing but death to you and yours for taking what is his.." Said the Silver Dancer Gin.

"Not if I have you in a particular spot, you see it's a rather crushing blow to have one's partner killed in front of them.." Said Van Kleiss before the vines that held Gin tossed him below into a room with smooth walls and a strange metal net on top of it.

Wisely Gin chose to sit and be patient his eyes closing as he went completely still. Kleiss had expected him to go half nuts in the room and looked slightly annoyed when he didn't.

"No Matter he will be on his way soon.." Said Van Kleiss sitting on his throne like chair.

Biowolf noticed it first looking at the top of his master's throne pointing. "Master isn't that Exodus there?"

"What! Where?! How did he get past us?!" Van Kleiss leaped forwards looking annoyed his eyes narrowed turning to face his throne as Exodus sat smirking in it.

"Nice chair I think I like it.. Now wheres my partner?" Exodus folded his arms head tipping back to glare at Kleiss and his second in command coldly.

"Exo!" Gin had stood hearing the two above speaking a flash of green energy coming from him.

"Ah-ha! There you are.. I can't leave you home alone for a second can I?" Said Exodus walking towards the metal netting looking at it."...Tricky..." Continued Exodus before leaning down slightly to look at it from the edge of it.

"Biowolf now!" Van Kleiss said one hand thrown out as vines snapped towards Exodus who twisted out of the way of them.

This put him right on top of the metal netting which suddenly split open sending Exodus towards the bottom of it only to be caught by Gin who winced.

"Exo, I'm sorry I failed to protect them.." Said Gin sadly shaking his head as the room abruptly went dark.

"Oh, what happened that you got caught?" Exodus said two glowing red eyes seen before his aura flowed around him lighting up the room.

"Van Kleiss showed up, he scattered all of them. Those who fought back he devoured.." Said Gin Shaking his head his arms folding as he leaned against the wall.

A screen flickered to life as Van Kleiss appeared on it making one silver and one red haired male frown annoyedly.

"Gentlemen I can promise you one of you will die before the night is out. The other how ever might survive if he agrees to serve me..I might even be generous and spare the other.." Said Van Kleiss a cold smile on his face before Exodus snorted turning his back on the screen.

"We would rather die then serve anyone other then one another..." Said Exodus his arms folding.

"I thought you would say that so I made this room rather special. You have an hour before it crushes both of you. I would suggest saying your good byes and making peace with the world unless you join me.." Said Van Kleiss looking annoyed before the screen vanished into the wall.

The walls slowly started to inch closer metal spikes appearing from them.

"Exo this isn't good.. If we both stay they will kill us. I failed you, and I'm sorry for that.. Please..Escape and in return redeem yourself..We both have done wrong, at least one of us should find redemption.." Gin was silent his eyes glowing as he brought one hand from his hair a tree starting to grow towards the ceiling.

"What about you? You'll be killed by those!" Said Exodus his hands going to Gin's shoulders giving the silver haired male a small shake.

"Exo careful my leg.. That bastard broke my foot.. I couldn't escape on my own even if I wanted to.. Not only that he poisoned me to make sure you would have to make a choice.." Said Gin before wrapping his arms around Exodus who's eyes widened as he clenched Gin around the waist with both hands.

"I'll carry you on my back! I'll make him give us the antidote!" Said Exodus his eyes closing as he leaned his forehead against Gins who smiled softly.

"No Exo, I can't let you do that.. Get out of here, I left a part of myself out there. He's only a baby and he needs protection.. His name is Genesis, and he is my legacy..He is me and yet himself all at the same time.. Watch over him for me please.." Gin said his hands raising to brush over Exodus's face.

Exodus closed his eyes his mouth curved in a frown. This male had practically saved him in a way when he'd been alone and wandering around. He was like a brother and a lover all in one. He swallowed before slowly nodding.

"Alright Gin, I'll protect him..." Exodus rested his lips against Gin's forehead who smiled before Exodus's hands moved to Gin's neck.

This was what Van Kleiss did not count on. He didn't count on the total loyalty Exodus's friend had for him. A sickening snap came as Exodus turned leaping up the tree the body of his beloved partner left behind. As much as he wanted to take it so badly it would only poison him as well. Both of them knew this and when the top of the containment that the two were in exploded off for the first time in his life Kleiss had a chill go down his spine.

"Master?" Biowolf turned his head as Van Kleiss held up one hand.

"I will deal with this..." Said Van Kleiss as he stood his eyes narrowed.

Exodus stood silently on the other side of the floor before slowly floating forwards across it his eyes narrowed into glowing red slits. His arms raised as he landed a few feet from Van Kleiss.

"I will kill you.." Exodus said before he started walking forwards slowly.

Van Kleiss scowled before breaking into a run "You can Try.." Said Kleiss as he swung at Exodus.

Exodus smirked at the fist that slammed into his jaw. He'd had worse then that. One hand came up catching the flesh part of it his head tilting. "...I'm sorry was that supposed to hurt?" Said Exodus before he started to grip Kleiss's arm tighter.

"What are you doing! Let go!" Kleiss hissed in pain as that hold became tighter.

"I told you, it comes near me your going to be missing it.." with those words Exodus smirked as red energy engulfed Van Kleiss who stiffened.

"Exodus..We could be allies... he was holding you back!" Said Van Kleiss gritting his teeth.

"You think so? He was the one who told me to simply leave you alone.. I wanted to kill you, but I won't.. I'm going to give him his wish and honor my partner's request.." Exodus said before using that blood red barrier to send Van Kleiss spinning away. Exodus vanished quietly leaving the two alone.. When Van Kleiss looked the body of Gin was gone nothing remaining of the two.

"Damn it! Why would that little brat do that?!" Van Kleiss could not understand why Gin would sacrifice himself to make sure Exodus got away. They must have some trick up their sleeves the man mused. Why else would someone willingly sacrifice themselves for that?

Exodus glared at the city his eyes narrowed. Gin had always said they were above human. That humans were weak and frail. They couldn't protect themselves like the two of them could. Exodus was still for a moment his head tipped in thought.

The humans though did have Providence perhaps they would be alright. He wouldn't be able to keep an eye on them normally. How could he do it without raising suspicion?

Exodus thought about it then realized something. He would hide in plain sight. Within the place Providence built themselves. He would hide in the Bug Jar along with the other dangerous Evo using them to hide himself.

With this he could tap into Providence's communications and keep an eye on them.

Genesis he sent off to find his own way after Erasing the boy's memories of him. It wouldn't do for him to remember Exodus. He would have to find his own way just as Exodus himself had done.

Exodus sat in the Bug Jar alone the other Evo wisely choosing to leave the warrior alone. They did not have a death wish it seemed.

When No-Face was returned to the Bug Jar Exodus smirked sitting on a rock he'd carved. "Well Fancy seeing you here.. Didn't I tell you it would happen?" Said Exodus looking amused.

No-Face glared before folding his arms "I remember.." Said the odd looking Evo leaning against the wall.

"Are you going to listen to me this time? If you do perhaps we can all live together.." Said Exodus looking to the other.

"Fine I don't like this, but I will listen to you.." Said No-Face quietly.

"Good here's what your going to do then.." Said Exodus standing up from his chair walking over to lean against the wall next to No-Face starting to quietly whisper.

It was a simple plan to gain the attention of Providence and Van Kleiss to the Bug Jar. Exodus would have to meet someone. He'd have to meet the Child of The Nanites. The boy who could cure others. It wouldn't bother him he wasn't curable at this point.

The boy however would have to be made aware of a few things as well as others in the Pack who did not belong in that life.

It was cleverly played out though, Exodus had to admit No-Face did go a little wild. When Exodus called him off No-Face did not want to go for a moment.

"You dare turn on me?!" Exodus glared eyes narrowed to slits of red glowing light.

"The boy though." Started No-Face before Exodus took a step forwards that red aura appearing around him.

"That BOY as you called him holds our future in his hands.. It is the duty of the strong to protect those who can..Not.." Exodus stopped for a moment before turning his head to the side. Gin would have loved hearing him say that. A sigh coming before Exodus spoke once more. "He's brash, he's reckless, and he's immature, but he is the only thing who can cure the rampaging ones."

"I understand that, but I don't know how that helps us who can not be cured by him!" Said No-Face letting out a soft growl.

"He might not be able to now, but someday he will be able to. I sense he has an interesting destiny that is connected to both of us." Exodus was silent allowing his eyes to close his red aura flickering before it vanished completely.

"Again with that destiny crap.. When will you ever learn Exodus your destiny is with me and the pack?" Van Kleiss stepped out from behind a fallen rock a smirk coming.

"I thought I smelt crazy.. " Exodus was silent his eyes narrowing as he leaped back landing in a crouch head lowered.

"Exodus is that any way to talk about an old friend? I saw the little piece of himself he left behind adorable child isn't he? He'd be an interesting addition to my team wouldn't he?" Said Van Kleiss in an almost pleasant voice.

"That wild animal? You have no clue what your messing with there.. Gin was an animal in combat all instinct and all ferocious nature.. You want an unmanned beast like that?" Exodus stood his arms folding.

"Ah Exodus you've always been the end prize for me... All that power the power to destroy all sorts of fun things. The power to destroy it all at will. Why aren't you using it?" Asked Van Kleiss looking amused.

"Cause I choose not to, humans aren't always my enemy and sometimes Evos can be a big threat.." Exodus said his mouth curving in a frown.

"A pity seeming as they don't see it that way do they?" Said Van Kleiss

"Humans are idiots who don't know a good thing when they see it.." Said Exodus turning his back on Van Kleiss.

"Will you turn your back on me Exodus?!" Said Van Kleiss one hand raising to extend towards the red head who turned his head stepping to the side of the hand letting it hit the wall in front of himself one arm curving around the arm before it could retract.

"As I said humans are Idiots who don't know a good thing when they see it.. Point and example you and I.. I leaving would have been a good thing for you. You could have gone on your way without being harmed.." Said Exodus clenching his arm slightly making Van Kleiss grit his teeth.

"Now who said that I didn't see this coming and plan around it?" Said Van Kleiss his eyes narrowed as Exodus blinked at the red glowing portal in front of himself before it swallowed him up..

Author's note: I'm still not happy with this I might redo it, but for now here is chapter one of Exodus's story..Please be gentle it's my first time trying to write this wild beast out in any fanfiction.. He's a brat and can be quite bloodthirsty in this. He's also extremely fickle and pairings may change before the end.

Disclaimer: All I own is Exodus he's my own creation.
