I had sort of a random fit. This is told from a father of three-gone-EVO POV. Enloy!
Just Kill Me
I'm a monster. I hurt my little 5 year old girls. When...when they tried to help me...
Flashback
"Daddy, Daddy! Look what I found!" I heard Lucy yell from behind a tree. It was a normal day a Central Park. I promised the girls a trip here and I finally got around to it. Asia, Janice, and Lucy were so excited they could sit still in the car.
"I'm comin'!" I'm not the man I used to be. Once I got over there, I asked her what it was. She held up a caterpillar in both of her hands.
"It's a weird lookin' worm!" She beamed a gap-toothed smile. I couldn't help but smile back.
"No, it's not a worm, Lacey." That was my nickname for her. Her hair was as smooth as lace. "It's a catterpillar. And one day it will grow up be a beautiful butterfly."
"I wanna be a butterfly!" She set it back on the leaf she found it. I laughed as her sisters came over. Being a single parent, I have little time to relax and cool down. I hope this moment last forever.
End Flashback
That was then. Soon after that I felt a sharp pain in my chest. I remember it vividly. I began to breathe very hard. My daughter's voices only echoed in my head, never penetrating. I fell to the ground and I closed my eyes, trying to control the seizures. I heard people coming towards me out of concern. I faded in and out of consciousness.
People began to scream in terror. Why were they screaming? Suddenly, I stood up without willing myself to. There seemed to be another presence in my mind. Like a savage animal thirsty for blood. I looked down, again moving without my own will. My three girls were huddled together, terror radiating off them. I or it made me raise my arm.
Oh my God.
Black quills and fur had sprouted from my forearm! I struggled against the creature. I can't hurt me girls! My own will was too weak to resist the lawless creature. I struck them, sending all of them flying to the left.
Oh no. I did it. I really did...no point in resisting anymore. I hurt them. They were my life.
Now my life is over. The human part of me could no longer see the outside world. I only heard screams and crashes and...an airship?
It must be Providence.
I felt some sudden pains. I felt the but at the same time I couldn't. It was like I was somewhere else.
Then I could see again! I saw the teenager from on TV standing over me. I believe Rex was his name. I felt the urge to speak. When I did, I barely recognized my own voice.
"Kill me, please!" I pleaded, tasting blood in my mouth. He ignored me and pressed his hands on my furry side.
"JUST KILL ME!" I screamed at him. Tears streaked down my cat like face.
"No. No one deserves to die." He smiled down at me.
"I deserve to! You don't understand!"
"Look I know you hurt your kids, but you couldn't help that. The EVO did it. Not you, buddy."
I lay there in silence, letting the words sink in. He...he was right after all. I wasn't my fault. Now I just want to see if the girls weren't too badly hurt. Otherwise, I would seriously kill myself.
Then I felt fur sucking back into my body. The quills fell off and I shrink to my normal size. The last thing to go was the EVO's very presence in my mind. Soon it dissipated as well.
"Are you alright, sir?" A man wearing a green suit came into my field of vision. I sat up and rubbed the back of my head and looked into his sunglasses.
"I'm fine now." I struggled a bit to crack a small fake smile.
"Good. Rex, come on." He said stoically to the teen. Rex rolled his eyes and followed him.
I will never forget that encounter with Rex. I never saw him again. Though I am no longer alive (a robber shot me in a hostage situation) I still stayed so I can one day thank Rex. For changing my opinion on myself. For making me believe that no one deserves to die. Not even an EVO.
So, how'd I do? I need to get off here cause I'm supposed to be doing homework. Oh well. And don't forget to review! :3
