Enoch & Kaede: Blood Paths

Kaede/Lucy Story

I had a hard life, first my mom and dad abandoned my in a shitty Orphanage. I killed my bullies and I tried to do that thing with everyone, but before that I got a friend…but I killed this family, then I got another one, and she died, why my life is full o' shit? I will tell you. A voice in my head keeps telling me to do kill all humans, but I first heard the damn thing when I was like 10 or something like that, there were bullies, assholes that always considering me an "oxen" but one day a girl helped me, after that I binged some food to my dog, my only real friend. But that was not enough, so I told that girl about him, she told me that she could pet him, but it was my second greatest mistake, after existing. That bastard holds him, and he killed the dog with a rock, all in front in me. And my "friend" she smirked, but she really did that? Or it was my mind? The rock bashed the poor thing…and then I released all my hate, and something more, my hands. They crushed them, all of them.

I exited the blood filled place where I came, I buried my fallen friend, if I didn't have these fuckin' horns he would be alive. I wonder who of us is worse. The kids that were miserable and wanted me to feel more than them, or me, a monster? Before I can answer a random kid came close to me, I was about to kill him, all because of these horns of shit. He noticed them, and…unbelievably told me that they were "awesome" I tried to convince him they were the source of my pain, but he failed to understand. He told me in a week he will return to this home; Hokkaido. I tried to wait for him; it began to rain when the night came. I was foolish enough to believe he will come. I thought of finding shelter, I found a house of a filthy family of humans, no one of them knew of me, but they were still the same race as that bully.

The next day he came, and he out me a wool cap, I decided to accompany him, I was alone in the night waiting for him…but why? He was a human, but it was like some kind of crush, i decided to go to the house I was, I told him tomorrow I will wait for him. In the home I see that the food is old, I left before the police came…I thought things can go well the next couple of days. I was (sort of) wrong because has been three days waiting, in my walk I found two people talking about my killings, and then I realize…why I was thinking about killing all the time? I was a sadist? Then a voice in my head spoke to me, it sounded like an old woman with a frail voice…the same one I heard the day I unleashed my hands for the first time. I tried to reason with it, but the voice wanted me to keep doing it, it has been lauder since then, killing is my gig it keeps saying! I finally found Kouta, he told me this would be this last day here…I accompanied him to the zoo…we took a train, I never was in a zoo before, this kind of thing for me was very new.

For the first time I saw them, I was really excited, maybe the very first time I had that, after a few walks around it and eating desserts I started thinking about still being with him, one of the very few people who treated me like a normal person, if I lost him my life would be more…I don't know…worst I guess. He told me about a festival…I so wish I could go with him. We make our way to a steam; we got ourselves a little game of splash…after that we dry our clothes…incidentally we were full naked in that instant, but due to the fact we were just kids…neither of us got a chance to make up due to the fact we didn't know what was that. If we got a chance that would be wonderful…I told him I would never forget that day, the best day of my life…the former is true, and the latter…was a lie implanted by my very being.

In the train we were leaving, he told me that he promised this cousin he would go, I wondered if it was a boy, or a girl. I realized I was a bit jealous. But the voice told me to kill him, with horror I saw myself in real life strangling Kouta…I was following my instincts in that moment. I apologized to him…were we arrived, then he told me that this cousin was…a guy, yeah he lied, but when I think right now of it…he did because it would hurt my feelings, he did it to make me happy…and what I did, was just the worst thing I have done…

I came to the festival alone, all the lights and people were enjoying, I was depressed because almost all the people were in couples, families etc., and I was alone. But if I found him I would tell him I loved him, but then, I see him huggin' a Random girl…a man tosses me aside and I fall…I embrace the cold unforgiving ground. I began to see things…like an imaginary Kouta telling me he just liked me because I was a "strange animal" then he told me I killed a lot of people, too much to be considered human…now I consider he *would* be right, then that voice told me to join it, she told me to kill everyone, to live in a place without humans, to kill my emotions, and become the destroyer of humanity…then I raise…and I kill every single one that is around me. A woman "tries" to help me; I blow her fucking face off… (Maybe I overreacted a little) I sneak into the train Kouta was…not before I have a glimpse of the bitch he was huggin'…when I entered it I was hearing a little brat telling him "a horned girl really killed those people!" then she saw me…oow her face was like "oh crap, she is here"

I get up of the seat, and then he looked at me. Happy, filled with hope. I was thinking he would get startled when he saw me, but before I can do something with my hands, the bratty sister pushed me hard (for being a brat) she tried to defend him for me to not kill him, why should I? he was the only person in these days that was not a complete asshole. They had a "little" argument about running away from me, and finally ending with Kouta saying: "I simply hate you" after that I slash the Kanae in a half torso…I laugh for a bit and I tell him something: "it's you who is the stupid one" the father tries to charge at me, *poof* decapitation. He tries to ask me why I explained that if he wasn't my friend I would have killed him. I told him it would be natural to kill him and everyone in fact. Quoting myself: "don't tell me, that you feel bitter about them dying" I promised myself to kill this cousin. Then he rams me and begins to pound me…demanding me to stop killing, then I realize: he will never become my friend again…I killed this family.

Part two:

It's been 5 years since that night. And I still think I did wrong, and I am right, I killed in front of him. But not random people, not muggers…I killed this family, and I laughed in this face when I did it. I been in hokkaidou…I thought in these moments I was alone, and for good reason, I thought killing humans was the right thing, filling it with my own species. And without notice a soccer ball hits my face! I'm about to lash out the hands, and then a girl sneaks at me and attends my bleeding nose. After her treating my injury at her house I decide to leave…maybe because I don't want to make another innocent pay. She is very good at drawing, even to the point of drawing me…when suddenly the father of Aiko (the name of the girl) began to hit her after seein' she was using her sketch book. I stopped him, then he was about to hit me too. Until I toss him in the air with my hands. I lift her outside to the park. I learn that she is beat constantly, and her mother left her, and maybe that day she would be reunited with her. Aiko's mother was a painter, so she will get to an exhibition the same day, in the local mall. I settle in a forest; then I realize that one of her paintings has fallen for the attic!

In horror I see that she killed this own father (I will not blame her though, he was a dick less dick) Aiko explain me that she tried to stop her dad for slashing the picture…it was an accident in other words, I tell her I am going to take the blame, and the next day go to the police. But the lover of the jack ass sees us with the corpse so we left the place. We got inside the mall, it was already closed. The white walls were adorned by beautiful paintings, but one in particular was more than enough to convince Aiko her mother still loved her: one with her, and a baby embracing.

After that I told her I am a…"magician" making nearby dolls dance. After that she was amused and decided for us to be friends forever. But that was interrupted by an attack of a army. I tried to protect aiko the best I could. But she was shot…but then I realized, she protected me. A human truly cared for me…I screamed in horror that the only human I cared about as much as her cared about me died! I released my hands and I destroyed a shit ton of crap in the mother fuckin' building! Aiko lived for a few seconds…just to thank me for helping her. I only destroy; I can't protect a shit…The rest of the team had me corralled; the man with the glasses told me that they can save her, if I surrender. I eventually did. In my capture I tried to believe in a future both of us could be happy together. After that I was in the dark, cold and gloom facility. Kurama (that guy with the glasses) told me something I realized with horror: she died; he bluntly told me if we "diclinous" coexisted with humans, none of this had happened. I am NOT the villain! You humans are the real evil, and the ones that refused to coexist!
