Damian's story
Chapter 12: A Deep Evil!
(No point of view)
Today was a very difficult day for the Starbreaker. Allan unfortunately could not be saved and was taken to the cemetery four days later, Jack saw him badly and refused to paint until his sadness disappeared. He just draws a few lines before tearing his leaves and pretending to lie down in bed to nibble some biscuits and then play at the console, as Damian does when he's sick.
Meanwhile in the office of Ziggurat ...
Damian is lying on the mattress in the office, Ziggourat has covered it with a thick black blanket where Damian is nestled and motionless underneath. He is lying down by being folded up on himself with his stuffed rabbit squeezing against his chest, his breathing is weak and he keeps trembling, at his feet his little puppy is asleep. Ziggurat looking out the window through the window, the sky is wandering in the dark, the storm rumbling out, and a heavy atmosphere reigns over the entire territory of the HD Academy. Ziggurat sees in the courtyard of the citadel, looking around them with anguish, like a prey feeling the approach of a starving predator.
Suddenly, Ziggourat is interrupted in his thoughts by Damian's plaintive moan, turning towards him, Ziggourat notices that Damian trembles harder, curious Ziggourat approaches, but Damian seems to be very afraid and starts to fidgeting with his hands on his head, and then when he caught Damian's right wrist, the latter moaned much louder and stopped moving
- Damian! What's wrong ? Asked Ziggourat by letting go of his wrist, Damian immediately turned back on himself, but this time he opened his eyes, his gray eyes became dull and tired, and his breathing is so heavy that one would think that his rib cage is crushed.
- (sigh) It's going to be four days that you're in such a state, I understand that Allan's death made you a shock, but you have to turn the page now! You have to know how to leave things behind you and focus on your real objective! And if you are here, it is not to ally yourself with people who will forsake you! To affirm Ziggourat trying to reason Damian.
- And my family ? Asked Damian, with a feverish voice; Where is she ? Where do I come from? Why am I here ? In the shadow, Ziggourat sketched a sadistic smile before resuming the face of a gentle character, like a real villain of film, he clears his throat before answering Damian
- You do not have a Damian family anymore ! ( Damian opens his eyes in surprise ) And you want to know why? ... Because you're an unwanted child! So that you understand, I will explain everything in detail ... 14 years ago, your mother was raped by the best blader that the United States knows : His name is Ridley ! this poor woman experienced such dishonor ... And as if that was not enough, at the end of the fourth month she learned that she was pregnant, she could not have an abortion and she was forced to keep you in her belly until 'in her last month of pregnancy, where she brought you into the world! She did not have the heart to abandon a baby, yet you were an unbearable child who only wept, you exhausted her and because of your existence, she could not move forward, she decided to give you to so that I can educate you and make you a man ... Have you understood Damian ?
Damian is all upset, he feels that the tear in his heart widens more and more, his inner emptiness begins to dig his chest like a drill, then he still has his images in his head ... He sees this scene again , where he is immobilized on a table, a woman screaming frightened for his child, and Allan stabbing on the arm with a syringe that was wanted to implant him in his veins, Jack who smiles at him, Allan laughing and congratulates him for his exploits and the memory of his little puppy that he recovered in the cemetery.
And during this, Damian looks at the lips of Ziggurat moving and he understands: « The world is cruel and wicked ! »
Damian's face darkens and he decides to lie down and snuggle in the blankets, Ziggourat sighs and decides to leave, leaving Damian alone in the room. He thinks ! His migraine grows on him, Damian knows that his memory is not distorted but affecting by something quite disturbing, he has the feeling that some elements are erased, he wants to try to remember, but every time he tries: He is sick!
Suddenly, pulling out his Hades Kerbecs top from his pocket, he feels it tremble in his hand, and when he turns to the wall, he sees it hanging: A wooden cross! Long Damian looks at her and feels something in him ... A deep discomfort !
This discomfort gives him the impression of boiling from within, gives him thirst for more power and frightens him !
Damian gets up by dropping the covers on the floor, he approaches the cross as his legs tremble, his eyes do not blink, they remain wide open, provoking the appearance of small red veins in the white of his eyes , next to him, Damian grabbed a small bronze statue, then forcefully threw it on the cross that falls on the ground, the sound barks his dog going to hide under the frightened desk; A few seconds later, Damian resumes his calm because of his smashing headache, he finds his puppy under the table
- Oh ... I'm sorry Miguel ! Damian apologizes to his puppy to get closer, the little creature on all fours advances to his master and comes to lick his fingers, Damian picks him up in his arms and begins to cuddle him, while the puppy licks her face
- Hey yes my buddy! Now I have only you and Jack ... anyway, I do not regret going out that night where I found you! Yeah ... you're my little dog to me alone! Damian said before getting up and starting to leave.

With my little Miguel in my arms, I walk through the long corridor of the academy HD, my pain to my wrist is still not gone but I hardly feel it, so this strange feeling I feel in my heart consume from within, these words echo long in my head : « The world is cruel and wicked ! » That Ziggurat told me. I feel fun smile while I walk in agony
- So ... if the world is so cruel and wicked ... No one will reproach me for my cruelty to those who will try to hurt me and those who will stand in my way ? I thought, then I looked at Miguel asking him
- Right, Miguel ?

Meanwhile, at the cemetery, in front of Allan's grave ...
A tall blue-haired man with a black raven on his shoulder lays white flowers on the grave before raising his eyes to the rainy sky, there he remains silent and feels a nascent aura similar to his, then he feels his phone vibrate in his pocket and then sees the following message
- We lost Allan! Damian is injured !
