The Bird of Hermes

Prologue

"PAPA!" I scream, stretching my arm out once more, as the man runs from me as he placed me in the hold of guards, announcing I was a monster.

As they drag me away, I continue to scream, continue struggle, for Akeldama wasn't a monster.

I didn't understand while they called me a deadman, Akeldama wasn't dead, Akeldama isn't a monster, Akeldama is scared.

I refuse it! I refuse the title monster, but I accept the title; Bird of Hermes.

"TODAY'S MATCH IS CRANE VS THE ROOKIE BIRD OF HERMS!" I shake from people, starring in at me through the glass, and the tall man before me smirking, licking his lips as he starred upon my figure.

As the buzzer goes, I run from Crane, screaming and screaming, as I did when the Earthquake happened.

I scream and cry, as one long red claw stretches my stomach. "NO STOP!"

"IT SEEMS CRANE HAS THE UPPER HAND! DOES BIRD OF HERMS NOT KNOW WHAT A BRANCH OF SIN IS?!"

I lower my head, confused as to what the voice said.

As Crane charges, with a long red claw engulfing his whole right arm, something inside me snaps.

I stand in the field of blood, my name was Akeldama I was a field of blood. No….

"Bird of Hermes is my name eating my wings to keep my tamed!" I announce holding Crane's decapitated head high, announcing my victory.

My eyes go empty, as the crowd cheers at me. At that time I accepted I was a monster….

My branch of sin…..Infection.
