-Vale. A Disgusting Building That Needs To Be Destroyed. Night-

-Souma Uchiha's POV-

*GASP*

I open my eyes as I lay on the floor...I see an unfamiliar ceiling...where am I? I move my hand and touch something warm and wet...I raise my hand and take a closer look at it.

Blood...is this blood?..Who's blood is this?

?: "Help! Help us!"

?: "Get up master! Please save us!"

?: "Where's my hand!? HELP!"

I slowly sit up to see the devastation around me...the kidnappers laying dead around me some are still alive and calling for help...the Faunus who are screaming for me to save them.

What happen?...What did I do?...Did I do this?

*Heartbeat*

*Heartbeat*

*Heartbeat*

*Heartbeat*

ARGH! My heart!...it hurts, my Sharingan begin to revolves slowly as I look at this horrible scene.

Souma: "KALI!"

How long was I out!? I quickly stand up only to feel lightheaded...my head...

I look around and close my eyes...please...don't tell me I did this...please...someone...save me.

Mother...where are you?

Snap out of it! I need to save Kali! that man still have her.

I walk past the cages...as I pass they look towards me as if they saw a god...those eyes are now full of worship that replace the despair in their eyes...even the broken girl looks towards me with hope.

Souma: "Stand back...all of you!"

The Faunus nods and quickly walk away from the cages.

Souma: "Chidori Eisō" (Chidori Sharp Spear)

*Chidori SFX*

My right hand begin emitting electrical spark and slowly form to that of a sharp blade...I swipe my hand across the cages cutting them down to give them their freedom that they should rightfully have.

Souma: "You're free now! You guys need to quickly find a spot to hide before more of them comes...by now help should be on their way."

In a brief moment they were silence...then suddenly the broken girl walk towards me...she's older than me I look up to her as she cover her naked body with rag blanket.

Broken Girl: "Thank you...we owe you our lives."

She gave me a warm smile...and kiss my forehead. My does my heart feel so much pain just by looking at her...was it because I couldn't save her innocence? But why should I feel this way, I can't save everyone...so why?

Broken Girl: "You're a kind boy..."

When I heard her say that, she hug me immediately and rub my head...A sudden realization occurred to me.

Ah...I see...Kindness...I simply love to much...I was upset because I had a frightening thought of what if it was Yang or Ruby...Lily...Ana...Samantha...Trevor...even Blake. I was scared that they might end up this way..broken.

The thought of it gave me fear...and rage.

(Devilman Crybaby OST - Behind the Scene)

My face darken when I realized what had happen to me...

*WhisperWhisperWhisper*

I need to reel my emotions...I need to take control...no regret..no remorse...everyone made they choices, I've made mine...I need to grow up.

I saw a cigarette box lying on the floor...I walk up to it and pick it up...I found a lighter in a dead man's pocket...I grab it and place a cigarette in my mouth...I light it up and begin smoking.

*Inhale*

*Exhale*

I look up to see the broken girl and smile with my hands in my pocket. I look upon the Faunus who are awaiting for direction.

Souma: "Go and help those who can't move to save themselves, Tonight we are brothers and sisters for a single goal TO BE FREE! Here are your orders help release the others from their imprisonment! Take their weapons and defend yourself, anything works from a gun to a simple spoon no one is to be unarmed! You've been treated like shit for so long! Enough is enough! For tonight all of you will regain your freedom! Fight your way to a secluded room and wait there until helps arrives. I'll be back for you guys later for I need to save my friend!"

I hear yells and cheers from the Faunus for they are inspired by my speech with fires in their eyes as they immediately obey my command and carry out their tasks.

The able male Faunus quickly grab their knives and guns while the women who can fight grab knives and metal batons.

They now have the will to live. The broken girl look at me and smile...life is coming back to her it seem..I hold the cigarette in my hand and hand her my Kunai. She slowly grab it and looks at me with determined eyes.

Souma: "You were weak once..but look at you now..the will to live has made you stronger than ever before. Go forth and protect your people."

She didn't say much and nod...and quickly ran to her people.

Now then...Kali, I'm coming for you.

I walk towards the elevator and press the button...as the door closes my Sharingan begins to revolves.

?: "...He...lp.."

I look at one of the kidnapper crawling towards a door...his left leg is severed leaving behind a blood trail...I walk towards him and turn his body to face me using my feet.

?: "...Pl..ease... ...me.."

I place my foot on his neck...my Sharingan slowly rotate as I coldly gaze at him...hmm, there's a trace of fear in his eyes as he stare directly into my eye... I slowly increase the pressure on my foot...he struggle to get the foot of his neck...eventually.

*Snap*

...ah...he stop moving.

*WhisperWhisperWhisper*

Kali...I'm coming for you.


-"It" POV-

"It": "Hmm...so far so good...though he's still physically weak, mental wise...an improvement..somewhat. No matter, in the end he had made a significant progress...now then, how do we evolve your eyes without breaking you."

As I watched from the sideline, the boy have been improving in using his jutsu...he didn't hesitate to kill which is good...the boy is far to kind..and yet because of it. It can be use as a catalyst...though I have to be careful...The Uchiha Clan have always been known for their hatred towards others that wrong them.

One unfortunate clan was decimated completely because they incited their hatred...Souma, I wonder will you let it consumed you. What happen tonight was merely a taste of your hatred...your true power will be greater once you've evolve your eyes.

I look forward to that day.


-Souma Uchiha's POV-

*DING*

The elevator door open and I walk towards a door, As I open the door I realized that this the boss's office.

I look around to see three armed men aiming their guns at me while the boss in sitting in his chair.

Kali: "SOUMA!"

I see Kali on the floor tied up...she's has slight bruises on her body and face..other than that she wasn't played by them.

Boss: "Ah! You've arrived...I've been watching you, You killed my men oh so beautifully! Aahahahahaaha. To think a kid like you can be so dangerous."

I didn't respond as I look at him with cold eyes...I blow out smokes from my mouth as I smoke.

Boss: "How about this kid...you work for me and I'll set you up for life."

I hold the cigarette in my hand and smile.

Souma: "Hmm...no thank you. I'm here for my friend and will be leaving now..the authority should be here by now. When they come for you they'll deal with aftermath."

Veins starts to appear in his head as he never felt so disrespected...especially from a child.

Boss: "Brat I'm giving you one chance...work for me or die."

I merely stand there smiling.

Souma: "Do you like hurting other people?...Give her to me and none of you will die."

The boss then walk towards Kali pulling the back of her hair closer to his face...her ears begins twitching as she's in pain. He then licks her face in a disgusting manner...seeing this irks me...no...control yourself. He's antagonizing you, it won't work while he believe I was distracted by him. his men move closer to me.

He never had the intention of hiring me..because he knows people like me can't be bought.

Souma: "I see, then let us end this farce. Today is tiring day and I have homework to finish. Knowing Sam she's probably raiding my boxers. Blake wants her mother back, if I don't get her back I can't face her tomorrow. So with that in mind, forgive me Kali...I have to kill them now, I gave them a choice...they chose poorly."

I adjusted my tie around my neck as my Sharingan begins revolving in a fast manner. The boss seeing this looks at me with fear...he and his men dread the moment they gaze upon my eyes.

He signal his men to kill me...they take aim at me causing Kali to feel restless as she struggles to help me.

I look at them and smile as I place the cigarette in my hand.

Souma: "Katon: Haisekishō" (Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning)

I blow out black smoke from my mouth covering the three before me...the boss couldn't see anything due to the black smoke but he can hear his men coughing and covering their eyes...he takes a closer look and see the Sharingan behind the smoke glowing intensely.

He begin to smell a familiar scent.

Boss: "...Gunpowder."

His pupils shrunk upon realization...he yelled out to his men but it was too late.

I flick the cigarette that was in my hand into the smoke. The lit cigarette cause a small spark and light the entire smoke causing an explosion.

*BOOM*

*WINDOWS BREAKING*

The Boss fell to the floor as windows shattered all around due to the explosion. I look around to see the men on the floor burnt to death with charred skins...Kali got up and quickly ran to my side. The boss grab his gun on the floor and aim it at the running Kali..seeing this filled me with rage.

I use Black Rose and teleport in front of him breaking his wrist.

*CRACK*

He scream in pain and drop the gun. I grab his head with my hand and look at him coldly...it was because of him the tension between Faunus and Humans were on a rise..it was because of him the Faunus couldn't feel safe to walk down their own street. It was because of him the Faunus downstairs suffered...

Boss: "Wait! Don't kill me please I'll give you everything! I'll turn myself in! Please spare me."

Even if I spare him...he would simply walk..he has connections...if he walks..he'll do it again...he might out my identity and target my family...Yang...Ruby

I recall Yang in my memories, She would constantly nag me for a spar and try to peek my naked body while laughing like an idiot..

I recall Ruby in my memories, She would look at me with stars in her eyes...her brother becoming the world's youngest Huntsman. I can see her eating her cookies with that cute smiles of hers...

*WhisperWhisperWhisper*

No...we all make our choices...I've made mine.

Souma: "...Raiton: Jibashi" (Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder)

I said it in cold voice as he saw my Sharingan looking down at him with cold hatred.

*Electric SFX*

Boss: "..Mons-"

*ZAAAAAAAAAPPPPPP*

The boss's head turn black as I charred his head...I let him go causing his body to plop onto the floor..his head begins smoking..I look away and see Kali looking at me.

I walk towards her and untied her hand...She hold her wrist making herself comfortable.

She look around to see what I have done...is she...afraid of me?

At that moment I regain control of my emotion.

(Devilman Crybaby OST- His Heart)

Souma: "I'm sor-"

Before I had a chance to finish she crouch down and hug me tightly while gently rubbing the back of my head.

Kali: "Shhhh...it's okay..you don't have to say anything. You did what you thought was right...the man was an monster...and I'm grateful to you...so please..don't keep it in..you're still a child after all...you don't have to act mature in front of me."

When I heard her say that...tears begun to stream down my cheeks...Huh...I'm crying...why?

I've made the right choice didn't I...I saved the Faunus who suffered unimaginable abuse...I've killed many men tonight for their crime against life...I gave these fools before a choice to surrender but they refused...thus I did not hesitate to kill...so why...why am I crying?

Being a Huntsman means I've to be prepared to take a life...

My memories returned like a tsunami as I recall a man begging...to which I casually take his life...all those screaming...all those begging.

I recall seeing my face reflected to me through his blood...I saw my face with a evil grin.

Ah...now I know why...I enjoyed it.

Yang...Ruby...Mom..Dad...Where are you?

Ah...it was all an act...I cry loudly on her shoulder.


-Kali Belladonna's POV-

After awhile..he drift asleep after pushing myself...I wipe the tears in his eyes. I carry him and made my way downstairs. As we leave the elevator, I see Vale's police force entering the building arresting

the remaining kidnappers...I look around to see severed bodies and corpses all around the prison...did you do this? I wondered to myself seeing the sleeping Souma...he's strong.

If a child like him is capable of doing this...then how strong will he be once he becomes an adult. I look to see the other Imprisoned Faunus being place inside Ambulances and buses to be transported to the nearest hospital.

I hear multiple sirens in the background along with a Bullhead...I look up to see it landing.

Ghira: "KAAALIII!"

I turn around to see Ghira running towards me with tears in his eyes.. He hugs me tightly and kisses me multiple time.

Ghira: "Thank the Gods you're safe...I don't know what I'll do if anything were to happen to you."

I see him with tears in his eyes...I smile warmly and kiss him.

Kali: "I'm fine Ghira..just rough up. If Souma hadn't shown up...I think I would have been dead or worse."

Ghira gulp as he contemplate on the worse part.. he then looks at Souma warmly.

Ghira: "Is he alright?"

I nod

Kali: "Yes...he's exhausted after everything."

James: "That's good to hear."

Ghira and I look behind us to see a large me in a white coat walking towards us..behind him are two arm guards.

Ghira: "General, you're here...once more thank you for your help."

Ghira walks towards him and shake his hand...ah so this the infamous General Ironwood. One of the man raise his hand to motion me to place Souma is his arm. I nod and pass him to the guard. As the General see this he nods and motion him to see Souma to an ambulance to be transferred to the hospital.

James: "Nonsense Ghira, This is important for both of us plus, with this it can be used as an example that Humans and Faunus are able to work together under dark times and you Mrs. Belladonna. I wish to express my thanks in taking care of Souma, he's like a family to me...speaking of family his will be arriving tomorrow."

James: "Come, it's best to bring you to the hospital as well for check up. Tomorrow will be a busy day plus I believe with this Souma might end up being awarded for his bravery."

Ghira then laughs loudly as he hold my hand.

Ghira: "Yes he's right, it's best that we go to the hospital. I'll bring Blake to visit you tomorrow...and General I'll see to it that Souma be rewarded...he's...he's a hero to our kind."

The general smile and nod...

A hero...was born that day. At the same time it attracted unwanted attention.

TO BE CONTINUE.
