Chapter 7 - Freljord.
Why have I changed? Have the other voidborns changed as well? Where are we heading with these changes? will we...turn into...humans? My head it's a mess with the recent events, I was expecting some sort of setbacks, but now my research it's a complete abyss, not only I have found new objectives, but my current research has given me a result I'm not satisfied with, the stork, what a foolish idea, how can a bird deliver babies from some place called Paris? and above everything else, cabbage, I'm so lost right now.
But even in this darkness I have found a guiding light, Cho'Gath, he, as always, has helped me find my way in this land, he has also changed, so I guess my theory might be right, there is something in this land changing us, the question is...do we want to change? So far I haven't thought about it, I mean, I never felt displeased with my void nature, I can't tell that I liked it either, I was just doing my task.
But now, I have these "feelings", now I can think about this matters, so far, I like this, but I'm not sure about the other Voidlings, these feelings make feel..."alive", yes, alive, but at the same time they scare me, I know there are wonderful feelings, but I also know there are dreadful feelings, I have seen them, in my past subjects, I'm scared, scared of them, I wonder whether Cho'Gath has thought about this, but I guess he doesn't worry too much, he just lives and accepts everything, it's his nature.
But I know I have to be brave, this new world holds too many wonders, I can't back up just because I'm scared of some funny feelings, that's why I'm traveling to Ionia, Cho'Gath told me they hold another library, I'm not sure what's the difference, but I will trust him, I have always trusted him, I guess his intention it's investigating the other voidborns, I heard Kha'zix it's in Ionia, I never liked him, his nature made me feel sick sometimes, I guess I considered he was no different from the other brainless animals, but now, now he must have changed...but...if he remains the same there is only one thing to do, eliminate him, I can't allow him to destroy my research, the same goes for the other voidborns.
Still, I like this metal box I'm currently in, it's a magnificent piece of work, I knew humans were good at building things, but this is amazing, to think you can cover large distance with this invention, fascinating...the only thing I find sad is that I haven't found any other humans, I wanted to ask them about the stork, I guess they were too scared of me...that...makes me a bit sad.
- Attention, mister Velzo - I Heard a voice call me - We have arrived our destination, please, proceed to the closest exit, we hope you enjoyed your ride.
-It's Vel'Koz, not Velzo.
Well I guess there is no point in worrying about them, I knew they would avoid me, but I'm confident, I will find humans who won't be afraid of me, I've done it in the past, I'll do it somehow, I won't give up so easily, I'll reach my objective.
...
...
...
I give up.
I wanna go home, screw this, I'll settle with Piltover's library, this is useless.
I knew they called Freljord "The land of eternal winter"...but this is ridiculous.
There is a storm and I can't see anything, the temperature it's so cold I can't feel my limbs, on top of that, I'm pretty far away from the main city, Vi said I can't get off into the city, I'll create a havoc, so it was decided to let me a few miles away, I hate this plan.
Well as they said...FUC...
"Tee-hee"
...
What was that? I look around me, there is no one or nothing, I can't be the wind, it's too high pitched, then, What the shi...
"My, my, what a cute fella, are you lost? tee-hee, you look confused, don't worry, it will be alright."
What is this feeling? I've felt it before, yes, this particular feeling, I can't really tell when or where but it's there.
"Are you cold? You must be, there's a blizzard around us but don't worry, soon, everything will be hot."
The feeling of being stalked, the feeling of running away, the feeling of being...prey.
Run.
I turned around, fear in every cell in my body, there was something out there, something evil...and I'm was it's prey, I tried going back, maybe that thing won't attack me if I'm near humans, but I was a fool, as soon as I turned around I felt something tackling me, my gaze was clouded with something soft, it was a white fur, whatever was over me was small, but this furry thing pinned me down effortlessly, as I looked up I discovered the most particular being so far.
Its form was a human, a young fem...err...girl, her hair was black and her eyes were amber, but the most amazing thing were her..."ears" above her head, they resembled a fox's, I could also see the furry things that kept me down, they were white tails coming from her back...but the scariest thing about her was her outfit...
She was naked.
- Hello there, pretty thing - she said with a soft voice - Are you on your own?
- eh...Yes, I am.
- Are you lost? - she said caressing my belly.
- N..No, I'm not, I'm going to Rakelstake because...
- That's good - she interrupted me - so, hey, I haven't seen something like you, Who are you? What are you?
- My name is Vel'Koz, The eye of the void.
- A Voidling?! - She hissed.
For the first time since I came to this world I felt happy that most hum...err...creatures fear my presence, now, all I have to do is act like a...
- Doesn't matter - she purred - to be honest, I'm curious how it will feel doing it with you, I mean, I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going.
That cursed phrase again.
- Doing...it? I don't understand, what exactly are we going to do?
- Oh, My! - She giggled - could it be...? You are a virgin, right?
- I guess I am, I mean, Vi said the sam...
- VI! - she said getting closer to me - Who is this "Vi? Someone special to you?
- Yes, I'm very fond of her.
- oh - suddenly her body started to move back and forth - Now I'm excited, you see, I'm not like most humans, I know you can tell, I feed on the life force of the living, I can pretty much suck it from every living thing, but, the most delicious comes from sentients beings, and...it gets better when their hearts belong to someone else.
- I don't have a heart.
- don't worry - she said speeding up - I only need your lust.
This is insane.
- Err, I think we should stop-i said trying to break free - I mean, I don't even know your name...or what are you.
- My name is Ahri, and I am your mistress - she said leaning down and kissing my belly.
...
Alright, in this situation there is only one thing I can do.
- HELP! - I yelled - HELP ME, PLEASE! RAPIST! RAPIST! PLEASE HELP!
- I LOVE WHEN THEY SCREAM! - Ahri said licking her lips - I'm just gonna eat you.
- you...WHAT?
- I've never had one of your sizes - she laughed - but you know what they said, it only hurts at first.
- I...I don'...
- Don't worry - Ahri said kissing my belly -I 'll make you say: "It's mortifying, but it feels good."
This is great, I came all the way to this forsaken frozen land just to be eaten by some random exhibitionist fox person...I'm not even mad, that's amazing, I didn't know there were creatures that could eat voidlings, I always thought we were poisonous, at least I died knowing something new.
As the Fox person gets closer I can only think of one thing...Vi...Do you even lift, sis?
- Strike like ram!
Ahri suddenly gets knocked down by a white projectile, speechless I look at her lying on the ground when suddenly a hulk-ish figure jumps in front of me, It's an adult human male, his size it's completely inhuman, he wears winter boots made of some sort of leather, pants of the same material, he is shirtless, only wearing a piece of armor on his left shoulders, gloves and a big belt with some strange emblem in the buckle, he has a tattoo on his right side...he is also bald and has a thick moustache...Is everyone in this land immune to the goddam cold?
- You thought you were in trouble - he said patting my head.
- I...ehm...I can't...I
- Did Fox get your tongue? - he said laughing.
- I...Thank you - I said a bit embarrassed - Thank you for saving me.
- When going gets tough, you call Braum - He said hitting his chest - Who might you be? Octodad?
- My name It's Vel'Koz, not Octodad...I'm the eye of the void - I said a bit anxious.
- Heya, Vel'Koz! Welcome to the Freljord.
- You...are not scared of me? - I asked surprised.
- Why would I?
- I'm from the void...Everyone thinks I'm evil...I...
- My friend, if you were evil you would have killed that fox...speaking of her - Braum got closer to Ahri and inspected her.
- is she dead?
- No, she is sleeping like a baby deer, she might die if we let her in the open.
- I guess I can take her with me, I'm going to Rakelstake, I can drop her there and continue my journey.
- But she tried to harm you - Braum said looking at me - Why would you save her?
- I...I don't know...I think it's the right thing to do
- SEE! - Braum said patting my side - how can you say you are evil? You are a good ma...err...Voidling, Anyways, we can't carry her like this, she will get cold, so - Braum spread out a rug, he Placed Ahri on it and wrapped her with it - There we go! I'll carry her, you follow Braum.
- You...will accompany me.
- Of course besides - He said carrying the rug on his shoulder - I think you have something worrying you.
- I... I'm changing...I'm scared - "Why am I talking to this human?" - I'm scared of these new feelings, I've seen wonderful things, but I also know there are terrible things, I don't wanna encounter them...I'm scared...
- Follow me - Braum said.
Confused, I followed Braum into the blizzard, curious about him, few humans are fearless in front of us, I knew one thing about them, they were wonderful.
- you see, Vel'Koz - Braum Started - You can't avoid pain, it's natural, what makes the difference it's how you deal with it, sometimes icy heart just needs warm smile, be scared, everyone is scared, but don't worry, life it's like this Blizzard - he said pointing at the sky.
I looked up, I couldn't see a thing, suddenly the Blizzard stopped and in front of me I saw something amazing: Lights, green and blue lights dancing across the sky, sparkling stars and the smile of the moon.
- The darker the night, the brighter the stars - Braum continued - Don't be afraid, be curious, this world is filled with wonders, I won't lie to you, you will get hurt, you will cry, but be strong, be like the wise goat, if life kicks you kick it back! you don't need to be tall or be muscular, always remember - He stopped walking, turned around and touched my belly - The heart it's the strongest muscle.
- I don't have a heart, I have a core.
- That doesn't matter, it's all the same in the end, believe me, you can always trust Braum - he said patting my head again and continue walking.
I looked at the dancing lights in the sky, Is Braum right? Do I have a chance in this wonderful world? The world is so big I can't see the end of it, Well, It's not a problem, I'm no longer scared about it, whatever danger lies ahead of me I'll face it.
They may have many, but I have Braum.
For a human...
He is quite wise and kind...
Interesting...
