"Xavier, what the hell have you done?!" I screamed as i collapsed onto my knees, stunned by the gruesome sight in front of me, digging my hands into my hair.
"Oh, Mikey, I have just done what I felt was necessary!" Xavier laughed as he observed me with sick glee. "You see, I have already found out about your secret. You are not one of us,fucker."
"What are you talking about, Xavier?!" Helen sobbed and in response, Xavier pressed the knife blade harder on her throat, her blood flowing as a trickle on her neck. "He's your brother! Why have you done this to our family?"
"Oh, Helen, Helen, if only you knew.." Xavier smiled and caressed her cheek with one of his fingers, looking at her as if she was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. "You see, Helen, our mom and dad only told us half the story about Michael's adoption...actually he wasn't even adopted to begin with! He was found when a space pod crashed into the backyard of our house one night, when you and I were still very young. Out parents lied to us, Helen!" He chuckled madly and uncontrollably as if he were high on drugs, and then, almost immediately, started sobbing."And they paid the price for it! I forced them to tell me everything before I killed them!"
He then stopped to catch his breath, before continuing. "But that's not the main reason why I killed them: you see, Mike, I actually was the favored one of the family before your ass landed into my life. Everything was perfect: I had a sister that was caring, my parents doted on me, my school life was perfectly normal..." He paused momentarily, and the next thing he said came out so loud my ear were ringing. "And then, you just had to come! You had to, of all people, be part of our family! AND GUESS WHAT?! Now in order to get their attention I have to get into fights and trouble at my school almost everyday because they were so busy trying to help you get through life with you being bullied all the time!You were a plague to my life, and you made me the black sheep of the family! In fact, my sister now is soooooo concerned about you as well, compared to last time when she was only concerned about me!" He panted after saying this, and whispered, "Why did your useless ass come into my life, Mike? WHY?! WHY ARE YOU SO WEAK AND HELPLESS?"
I took a moment to regain my bearings, and stood up, saying "Your parents loved you as much as us, Xavier! Its just that you were so jealous of me that you had to resort to extreme measures to get their love and affection! Of course they loved you, jackass! And who cares if I am an alien or not? I truly loved being in this family!" I sobbed violently and got on my knees again. "P...please Xavier...spare your...no...our sister. Kill me instead...you said I caused you misery right?" I looked at him pleadingly.
"Michael, no!" Helen screamed, as she started to struggle under Xavier's grasp. "Please I don't want you to die...you may not be human,but you are still my-"
"Its for the best, Helen," I said, smiling sadly at her. I stood up, and told Xavier, "Let her go. Now."
"Xavier scoffed and threw her onto the floor, throwing away the bloodstained knife. "Go, get out of here as fast as you can!" I told Helen.
"I love you, Michael...I am so sorry.." She sobbed and then bolted out of the house. I turned to then look at Xavier gratefully. "Thanks for showing mercy to-"
"Mercy is for the weak..." he said. "Why should you be surprised?" His hand started to glow purple, purple lightning flashing out of his hand. I clenched my fists and awaited my fate. "You know, just thought I'd tell you...before I killed our parents, I actually discovered the space pod you came from in the basement of our house...and there was a huge storage of unknown energy in the engine that i was somehow able to absorb with my hands..."
"Heh...so you are smart after all huh...well guess mom and dad were telling the truth about me all along...me being an alien..." I chuckled to myself.
He then positioned himself to punch me, before saying, "Goodbye...Mikey..."
He then slammed the fist with lightning into my stomach, and everything turned into darkness.
When I woke up, my vision was clouded and blurry, and I struggled to see. However, it didn't take that long for my vision to get back to normal, and I realized I was lying on the seat of a car. I got up quickly and looked outside the window, seeing trees and buildings whizzing by in a blur.
"Oh, you are awake, son, that's good." I was startled and looked at the driver's seat.
The driver was a man with both white and black hair that was long and stylish, his hair ending in bangs and curled upwards, looking spiky in appearance. Despite his hair showing he was old, he looked quite handsome, his face looking quite oval in shape, and he also wore sunglasses. He also wore a white shirt and long brown denim jeans. He smiled reassuringly at me and turned to face me. "I actually found you on the road pavement while driving yesterday...man you looked really awful as hell...I thought you were dead at first, by God...you looked like you had been beaten up, with some bruises on your legs...luckily I patched them up already with First-Aids so it should be okay...damn you were unconscious for two days straight." He then turned his head back to focus on the road and drive. "Anyway, son, what's your name? My name's Edward, Edward Donbell."
"I'm...Michael Reeves...sir..." Actually I wasn't really paying attention at first, and it took me a while to respond to his question as I could only wonder: How..did I survive being punched so hard by Xavier? And have I been flung all the way from my town to the middle of nowhere?
"Um,sir...where are we exactly?"
"Oh, we're in Missouri, son. Why?"
My God.
So that was how far I was flung. From California all the way to Missouri . Wow.
"Never mind, sir, just asking," I responded after a while, grinning sheepishly.
"Mhm...anyway, son, I feel that you are...a bit strange.."
"Huh?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise.
"When I carried you into my car, I felt that some part of you wasn't right...it felt like...you weren't exactly human. I-"
"Actually, there's a reason,sir."
"Um...just call me Edward from now onwards, 'kay? 'Sir' makes me feel old."
So I told him everything that had happened to me, some other details of my life and what I knew,since his character looked trustworthy enough, and besides, he helped me. Strangely, he heard and listened to my entire story as if he had heard it a million times before, and did not look at me in surprise or disbelief as I would have expected. He just nodded and furrowed his eyebrows, as if he was thinking.
"Ohhh...I see. So you're an someone from another planet flung onto Earth and then the events with your family happened..okay..actually to tell you...your house in California was reported on the news to have been burnt down...looks very familiar to the one in your story that you described."
"What?!" I exclaimed in disbelief. Actually I kinda already knew who did it though.
"Was it Xavier your brother that burnt down the house if I infer correctly?" he asked.
I just nodded in response.
"Wow...and you survived being punched by your evil brother all the way from California all the way to Arizona...that's amazing...you are truly not some any ordinary person" He paused, looking deep in thought and asked, "Do you wanna find your sister? I mean-"
"No, don't. My brother is still out there, and if he finds me and my sister again he's gonna kill me...and she'll get hurt in the process...we have to be separated for now...I don't want anything to happen to her."
"Um..okay I guess. Actually I kinda know what you saying...and I believe it."
I looked at him with surprise. "Why?"
He coughed before saying, "You see I have dabbled in this kind of stuff before...and I think I know where you came from."
"Really?" I said.
"No, not really, but i think you didn't come from another planet, Michael. I think you came from another universe to be exact." He looked at me and gave a grin before turning back to face the road."Son, you may not know this, but when we get back to your new house-my house,that is- I'm gonna show you my biggest secret...both my greatest achievement and failure."
Hey guys, ANIMELOL here...so i have been on hiatus and deleted the previous story due to the fact I felt I didn't describe enough of Xavier's and Helen's character...only their looks so I changed that and redid the story again...sry guys for any inconvenience caused.
