Chapter 20 - The Legend of the HoboReaver.
Hello everyone, my name is Kha'Zix, The Voidreaver, I am a creature from a dimension called The Void, in other words, I am a highly evolved monster, designed to hunt and consume every fleshling in this new land called Runeterra, I came to this land as a scout with many other voidlings, I can't remember our mission but I guess it had something to do with killing every living thing and turn this land into hell...ya know, just a normal Monday...
So yeah...my mission was to kill everyone, but right now I'm more interested in decorating my house...Yes! My new house! can you believe it? I used to sleep in a card box...and now I have a house! with three rooms! I have my own bathroom now! yes, it's all thanks to this lady called Karma, one day she came to the slums and started making plans...stuff like reconstructing every corner here, she gave every single one of us a house, she is a saint, we really like Miss Karma, hell, she even looked for me personally and invited me to have dinner with her...I never knew food could be fancy and delicious...
Everyone is happy with Karma...well, everyone but him, Zed, the major of the slums, we call him the major since he protected us from the very beginning, he also is the leader of this strange religion...I'm not that smart so I don't get it, but he is a nice guy, I trust him...I just hate when he tries to recruit me, he can be pretty damn annoying...and I think he might be a little crazy, but I still like him, I mean he does look pretty tasty...
...
...
...Ugh...
Come on, Kha, carry on, you are above that, we are better than that, come on, we can do it...but...the fleshlings...look so tasty...the smell they have...it's so delicious...ugh...every day is a fight, I always feel these urges to consume, it's like a drug to me, but I know if I give in there's no way back, I will become the brainless monster I used to be, and I really like my new house...
Now that I think about it...why did I change?...hmm...curious, every time I try to remember I find a dead end, I can remember some white fur and a pair of blue eyes...but aside from that everything is black...I do remember some pain but aside from that I'm completely clueless...maybe I had and accident and I forgot everything...
Well I consider my change happened thanks to the denizens of the Slums, they found me one good day in the middle of the forest, they were kind enough to take me somewhere safe...humans tend to avoid us, I guess we, voidborns, are kind of scary, yet, these humans treated me well, they gave me my card-box, food, and even a job, I'm really grateful to them...
My job is quite easy, I'm a farmer and I help in the field, sometimes I wish my life could be more exciting, I mean, Cho'Gath is a high ranking member in Piltover, I even heard he is an ambassador in Freljord...and recently my friend Vel'Koz...he has always been the brain among us, so clever, he found out human babies come from the stork, I couldn't have guessed that from myself, I always thought women somehow created them within themselves, I was so silly, anyways, he is travelling across Runeterra looking for answers...and it seems he is quite popular with girls, just a few days ago the Starchild was all over him and I also heard rumors about a certain Enforcer...I wish I could have as many friends as him...
Of course, I have my own best friend...he is kind of weird...but he is just like me, a gentleman of the road, he is currently staying with me since I have a house, I just hate his drinking habits...
Oh, my! someone's at the door...I have a door! yes, this house is the best, who could be there? maybe my new neighbors, or maybe Miss Karma, oh my god! I'm shivering in excitement, I'm...
- Excuse me, sir, would you like to talk about our lord and savior Faker?
...
- YEAH! SCRUB! REKT GET, SON! IMMA 360 NO-SCOPE THE SHIT OUT OF YOUR N00B ASS!
...
I give up.
Screw this, I want my card-box back, this is useless, I'm so done with life.
- Zed, What the hell are you doing here? - I said as calmly as I could.
- I'm trying to spread our faith in our lord and savior Fa...
- SHUT UP! - I yelled trying to calm down - Can you please tell me who is this..."fair" maiden?
- Ah! Yes, this one is called Akali, The Fist of the shadow, she has decided to join our journey for our lord and savior Fa...
- WASSUP, INSEC! - She yelled slapping my face.
- ...Why is she dressed like a Soccer player?
- What the hell is Soccer?
- Nevermind, what do you want?
- SNAPCHAT YOUR PENIS TO RYANWILSON910! - Akali yelled pushing me away and entering my house.
- Hey! My house is new! stop it!
-So like, I want my tea green, please - Zed said.
- WHY THE HELL ARE YOU IN MY HOUSE TOO?!
Sometimes I really hate Zed, he always does what he wants, even if that means breaking into my house without my permission...geez...maybe I should eat this idiot...but I guess there's little I can do about him...I mean..he is a public enemy to Ionia...I've heard rumors about the elders executing innocent bystanders just because they didn't want to expose Zed...maybe I should be a bit more understanding and forgive...
- SUPER PRETTY NAKED BOY SPOTTED! - Akali yelled from my room.
- Akali, shut up, we won't judge your hobbies, Kha'Zix, everyone is accepted for our lord and savior Fa...
Maybe I should eat this fools...
- OMG! SUPER NO-SKILL CHAMPION IS GETTING DRESSED!
- Akali, please I told you to stop...oh, my! there IS a pretty boy in your room, Kha'Zix...are you...
- HE IS MY FRIEND, IDIOTS! - I yelled - His name is Yasuo.
- Stop yelling, you stupid bug, I'm having a hangover - Yasuo said slapping my head.
Yasuo was a strange man, indeed, I found him wandering in a road one day, he was starving and nearly dead, I manage to save him and learnt about his past, it seems he was a pupil of some prominent sword-style school, but somehow, he was labeled as the murderer of his master, he fled and became a wanderer, he seeks for the real killer of his master...some woman called Riven might have some info about this mess, He goes by the title of The Unforgiven...not sure why...in reality he is just a drunkard, lazy hobo, he never works...but eats all of my food...but I like his music...
- Yasuo - Zed said getting serious - We meet yet again..
- Indeed, Zed, lady luck is not on my side...the answer is no...
- Come on! Faker will love you... I'm sure of that...
- I refuse...and this green girl...cute mask, Your, uh, mom sew that?
- RUDE! - Akali said slapping me
- WHY ME!?...AKALI, WHEN, IN THE NAME OF NORWAY, DID YOU CHANGE YOUR CLOTHES BACK?
- Anyways, this is great, now you all can help me with something.
- what do you want Zed? - I asked feeling tired.
- LAPUTA! - Zed said making some weird pose.
- ...What?
- Yes, you see, I was just doing my usual walk in the morning so I could witness the power of Faker...and then I saw it...Laputa was flying above me...can you believe my surprise?
- the fuck is a "Laputa"? - Yasuo asked groggily.
- You know, that Movie from Ghibli? Perhaps gulliver...? Anyone...Well...it's a FLYING ISLAND...Now, you ,my subjects, will accompany me and together we will save Totoro...wait...that's from another film...but still! What do you say?
- I'm shitfaced...so no - Yasuo said yawning.
- Look, Zed, I told you that white powder in the parking loot wasn't sugar - I told him patting his back.
- STONED AS EUW! - Akali said laughing.
Zed just stood there looking at the nothingness...and then...
- Listen here, you little twats, I am the Master of Shadow - Suddenly all around us started to go black - The one who has seen the darkest side of the night, the last whisper you will ever hear-Around us, we could hear screams of fear and pain - my blade has slain hundreds of weakling without them even realizing their demise, you shall follow me...or... - He lifted his head letting us see his red glowing eyes - ...PERISH BY MY BLADE...
...
...
...
...
...
...
- I wasn't scared - Yasuo said for the 20th time.
- Yes, yes, we know, shut up already - I answered for the 20th time.
- I wasn't scared I swear...
- YOU WERE PISSING YOUR PANTS - Akali laughed.
- I WASN...
- Guys - Zed said creepily - let's be friends, shall we?
- Yes, sir - We said in unison.
I sighed, there were many productive things I could be doing by now, and yet, I'm here hunting for some "flying" island like a brat, I gotta say, I've never seen Zed furious, he's been like this since he found out Vel'Koz was banished because of him, the elders wanted to know where Zed was but Vel'Koz kept the secret...last thing we heard about him was from The Starchild, it seems Soraka is also being pursued by the elders since she is "in love" with Vel'Koz, not sure what this whole "love" matter means, but it seems it means a lot for the elders, she is a celestial so the only thing they can do to her is imprisoned her...but I've heard rumors about her fleeing...anyways... Zed has been rather gloomy nowadays, sometimes cursing for no good reason or just throwing random rants every now and then, he feels it was his fault...well...at least he is in high spirits now...I wish I could speak to Cho'Gath, he always has an answer but he hasn't been answering any of my letters...there are so many problems and yet I can't do a thing...I feel powerless...I feel worried...we voidlings can feel each other...and yet...sometimes I wonder why I worry so much for them...both Vel'Koz and Cho'Gath are strong creatures...they won't be defeated so easily...I must...
- AND IT'S HERE! - Zed yelled.
Well, the very idea of a flying island it's completely ridiculous, I mean, how is that even possible? maybe is just another delusion of Zed, there is no way an island can fl...
...
...
...
There is a fucking island above my head...in the sky...it's flying...an island at the top of the sky...ridiculous...yes...ridiculous...I mean...an island at the bottom of the sea would be impossible...but this...this is...
- Daaaaaaamn, I'm so high right now... - Akali said slowly.
- I'm sure I'm not drunk...I didn't even drink a drop...could this be...? I knew I shouldn't have eaten that weird powder in the parking loot...i thought it was sugar...shit I'm so dead - Yasuo said in a fetal position.
I decided to ignore the idiots.
- well, Zed, your island is real...what do we do now? - I asked.
- YARHG, OF COURSE, MATE, WE RAID THE PLACE! - He answered wearing a pirate hat, a patch in his left eye, a hook in his right arm and wooden legs...how the hell did he do that?
- Well, of course, Zed, I mean...
- IT'S CAPTAIN ZED FOR YOU, CABIN BOY!
- ...Right, Captain Zed, how do we reach that thing?
- WE SHALL SAIL IN THE SKIES!
- ...do you have a flying boat?
- ...no...BUT I HAVE THIS - He said pointing at a catapult behind him.
- Okay...one: that's a bad idea. Two:...HOW IN THE NAME OF NORWAY DID YOU MADE THAT THING? I DIDN'T SEE IT WHEN WE ARRIVED.
- I prayed to our lord and savior Fa...
- YES! YES! I KNOW...- I massaged my non-existence temples - ...so...your plan is to...use that thing...so we can reach the island...right?
- YES, CABIN BOY!
- ...Are you retarded?
- I'M A NORMAL GUY, NOW TAKE THAT SAILOR AND THAT LASS AND LET'S GET GOING!
- I'm sure we will die, I think we should... - I realized I was in the damn thing already-...HOW?!
- Ao shin, I entrust my soul to you - Yasuo pleaded behind me.
- WOO-HOO! MEGA-AKALI! - The fist of Shadow cheered.
- THREE, FORTY-ONE, NINE...AND LIFT OFF! - Zed said activating the damn thing.
Suddenly everything around me was blue, the sun was so close, I could almost taste the clouds, there was no gravity...my mind freed from my body and I felt in another dimension...I felt small...the sky was so wide...endless...in that moment I knew it...I was born to fly...then I crashed into the ground and ate several pounds of soil...Zed landed softly next to me...
-Dude, I thought you had wings - he said concerned.
- I need to...evolve them...
- You should have done it...
- no...everytime I evolve I...I feel hungry...and I need to...consume...living things...I don't want to...become a monster again...
- Okay, I get it - Zed said patting my head - I promise I will never... - And then Yasuo crashed on top of him.
- Oh, dear Kira - He chanted on top of Zed - I swear I will kill those stupid letters for you, please, allow my soul... - And then Akali crashed on him.
- THUNDERLORD, SCRUB! - She yelled bouncing on top of Zed and Yasuo.
- For some reason...I fell incredibly jubilant...Thanks, Akali, I needed that - I said nodding.
- if you, idiots stay on top of me one single second more, I will personally rip out your eyeballs from your sockets - The furious voice of Zed came from below.
Akali and Yasuo hid behind me.
- Scaredy cat - I mocked grinning.
- S-SHUT UP, YOU COCKROACH...WHAT'S MORE, HOW CAN YOU BE GRINNING? YOU ARE JUST A FRIGGING BUG.
- Now, now, stop it-Zed said waving at us - Let's explore the magic land of...Laputa?
Well, this certainly wasn't the impressive flying island...it looked...normal...I mean, Ionian normal, the soil was really fresh with plenty of healthy grass growing all over the place, there were several cherry-Blossom trees all over the place with pink petals already growing...peculiar...it's winter, if I remember correctly...well, aside from that, there is a large pond of crystalline water with a Marmol bridge across it, I can recognize some elder runes in its design, whoever made that thing was an elder for sure...in front of the pond lied a sumptuous jade palace, I could have mistaken it for a mansion in the capital...but I was on a floating island...still...there is some fishy aura around the palace...like...it's a...prision...
- WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? - Zed groaned tearing apart his custom - THIS IS JUST SOME SUMMER HOUSE OF THOSE FRIGGING ELDERS?
- It does look like one - Yasuo said scratching his hair - Well I guess we can go home now, right?
- I guess... - Zed sighed - Man, I really wanted to discover Laputa...I mean just imagine L...
Suddenly the main door of the palace shot open, inside of it emerged a small teenager, the young girl was wearing a set of Pyjamas with cat faces all over her, she was holding a huge black plush in her arms, the young girl yawned and rubbed her eyes and slowly looked at us...
...
...
...
- Oh, hello there - Zed greeted her - We apologize if we interrupted your nap, allow me to introduce you to ourselves, we came here in the name of our lord and savior Fa...
- ...no... - The young lady muttered
- Excuse me, I can't hear you could you, please...
- No...
- Wh...?
- NOOOOOOO!
Once again I was one with the universe, I was flying, my mind and my body were in harmony, I felt real...I felt solid...I felt alive...I felt...huma...
And then...my mouth was full of dirt...again...
Around me, I saw Yasuo eat the ground again, amazingly Akali and Zed landed softly...frigging ninjas.
- Well, that went better that I thought - Zed said looking at the island - Though I expected some mighty guardians protecting the castle I guess a "cute little grill" also works for me.
- Zed, That "cute little girl" defeated us easily - I told him checking if Yasuo was okay - Well, I guess we can go home now and forg...
- Of course, we can't! - Zed said slapping my head again - There is a cute girl on that island! Don't you know what this means?
- No, and I'm pretty sure it's something stupid...
- It means JACKPOT! We can get a lot of delicious material out of this.
- ...I know I'm gonna regret asking...What kind of material?
- Great material! Photos of her taking a bath, her diary and some childish underwear...like with bears and bunnies...and I guess that black pillow also works!
- ...Zed...she is just a child...why would you...do those things?
- Because I want to kee...I can sell it to the old geezers in the Capital they will like it...I mean...I would like it if I were into that kind of thing...but I am not...trust me.
Maybe Vel'Koz should have sold out this danger for the society...
- I think Zed is right - Yasuo said getting up - We must sexually ha...sexually assu...we should do as he said.
- Yasuo, you were going to say sexually harass and sexually assault, right?
- I knew you were a smart man, Yasuo, follow my lead.
- WAIT! You can't do that...AKALI, PLEASE, you think this is disgusting, right? As a girl you feel offended and you...
- If there are any blue white stripe panties I will keep them... - Akali said seriously.
- Deal! - Zed said shaking hands with her.
...
...
...
These are my friends...
- Okay, according to my calculations...
- You didn't do such thing...
- ...We must be above the bathroom, she must be taking a bath right now, private Akali will open a window for us with her multi-purpose device...
- It's just a frigging stick...
- ...Lieutenant Yasuo will sneak in his super cloaking equipment and secure the position of the target...
- HE IS USING A BLANKET!
- ...After he gives the signal, Captain Kha will get in and get the photos so I can kee...so I can sell them in the capital...
- YOU ARE GOING TO KEEP THEM, RIGHT?
- ...Mission "Let's peek on our childhood friend" is a go.
- I'm so gonna turn you in after this, and what does Childhood friend mean?
- Now, Now, Captain, we must do this for our pride as humans...
- I'm a voidling...
- ...and our duty as men...
- That's it, I'm calling the cops...
- We must peek into the bathroom and enjoy our meal...
- I hate you so much...
- Anyways, Private Akali, is everything ready?
- Yes, sir - Akali said appearing behind me - The C4 is in position.
- Perfect, private...Wait...C4? Why would you use C4?
- There are no windows in the bathroom, Sir, so we must make one?
- Excellent thinking, Private Akali!
- ...WAIT...YOU PLANTED A BOMB - I asked scared - WHERE IS IT? WE HAVE TO DEFUSE IT!
- It's right here - She said pointing at a small black box at our feet - It should explode in a few seconds.
- WHA...?!
Suddenly there was a huge shockwave followed by the explosion, I felt my body fall into the hall the bomb created and landed in a steamy pool of warm water, around me I heard my friends fall as well.
- HELP! - Yasuo begged - I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SWIM! HELP!
- Just stand up, idiot.
- Oh! - Yasuo said realizing the water only reached his waist-...I knew it...I was just...forget it...
- Alright! Prepare to peek and take photos, where is our target?
- She is...behind us...
Everyone turned around and saw the small girl with white hair and purple eyes wearing only a towel around her body, she just stayed there staring at us.
- ...Oh! - Zed spoke first - Didn't see you there! We were...we were just...you know...ehm...Kha'Zix! what were we doing?
- Peeking on her.
- KHA! YOU TRAITOR!
We were once again defeated by the little girl.
- Okay, operation "lotion in the basket" is a go.
- Zed, can we stop?
- No, Kha'Zix you have been demoted to deliver boy, so shut up! - Zed said slapping my head - Now, this is the plan, Akali will locate the target and secure her position, Yasuo will then use this special lotion made with (supposedly) lotion and then he will...
- What do you mean with that (supposedly)?
- Well...it's made of some slimy substance only men can craft.
- I'm going to call the cops
- SHUT UP, KHA! YOU ARE ONLY A DELIVER BOY - Zed cleared his throat - Once Yasuo is done I will take some pìctures, we sell them at the capital and we are rich, it's a simple plan!
- We are going to fail...
- Why are you so sure, delivery boy?
- We always do...
- GUYS! - Akali said appearing above us - SHE IS COMING THIS WAY!
- Excellent! Yasuo, Is the Manilla ready?
- Yes, sir!
-Right, prepare to launch our attack in three...two...one...NOW!
The little girl was sprayed with a white liquid all over her face and body, she screamed and tried to protect her face, in the end, she slipped and fell on the ground.
- PERFECT! KHA, GIVE ME THE CAMERA!
- ...what camera?
- ...the camera...the one you were supposed to...wait...you didn't...YOU ARE THE DELIVER BOY...YOU HAD ONE JOB!
- Told you we were going to fail...
We were blasted into the skies once again.
- Alright! This time around we won't fail...
- But we already did...
- SHUT UP, KHA! YOU ARE A BOX NOW! JUST STAY THERE AND BLOCK THE DOOR! Anyways, the third is the charm, operation "Holy Wind" won't fail.
- You know...it's dumb when you sound so serious but have a pair of panties in your head.
- We shall enjoy our spoils of war before we sell them at the capital.
We were at the room of the little girl, Yasuo and Akali were looking for underwear and stashing it in a sack, both of them were using undergarments in their heads as well, I was just there blocking the door.
- I think we should stop, Zed, this is ridiculous!
- SHUT UP, BOX, LET US WORK!
- You know what? No, I won't shut up, this is stupid, we are doing something idiotic, and why? because you feel depressed, you think it was your fault Vel'Koz was exiled from Ionia.
- Kha'Zix, don't do this...
- No, I know you feel guilty, but doing these stupid things is rather sad, Vel'Koz wouldn't like any of this...
- I'm warning you, Kha'Zix, shut up...
- No, we have to...
- Uhm, guys? - Yasuo intervened-do you remember we couldn't find the little girl...I found her...in the closet...
The girl just stood inside of the closet, looking at the three adults, two men, and one woman, wearing her underwear as hats and stashing her underwear in a sack.
- EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF! - Akali said jumping out of the window.
- RETREAT MAN, RETREAT! - Zed said grabbing Yasuo and leaping as well.
I just stood there looking at the hole in the window, the room was located on the outskirts of the island in the highest part of the castle...so right now the jumped into an abyss...yep, all of them died...
- Idiots - I whispered - Well, I guess I should leave, allow me to apologize, little girl, My name is Kha'Zix, I'm sorry for all the trouble we caused you.
- ah?...You...you can talk?
- yes, as I was saying, I apologize...
- No, no it's fine - She said shyly - It's fine...by the way...My name is Syndra, The dark sovereign, it's a pleasure to meet you.
- The pleasure is mine, now if you excuse me, I must leave... - I said looking at the window.
- Wait! - Syndra said - Wait!...Is he...going to come back?
- Zed? - I asked and she nodded - Wait...you...you want him back? - She nodded again - ...you do realize he was wearing your underwear on his head, he bathed you with a strange liquid and peeked in your bath, right?
- I know...but...he is kind of cool - She said blushing - ...also...you are the first visitors I have in a long time...it was really fun...
- You mean...you've been here on you own? - She nodded - For how long?
- As long as I can remember - She said sadly - The elders in Ionia told me I held a terrible power...I'm the one keeping this island in the skies...so...this is my prison...and I will remain here until I die...but...I was really happy when you guys came - She smiled - I really was...
...
...
...
Well, Shit.
- let's go.
- Excuse me?
- We are going to chase after the idiotic master of shadows...and then you are going to make him pay for his sins
- REALLY?
- yes, he will do anything you say
- HE WILL MARRY ME?
-...wait, what?...yes, yes he will, or else, I will eat his brain.
- Awesome - Syndra said hugging me - Just give me a minute, I will wear something cute for him! - She said dashing into her closet.
...
...
...
he, he, he, I guess girls do love ninja clowns.
- What in the void are you wearing?
- I look more mature in this, right?
- Why would you want to look more mature?
- Well, you know, Zed is an adult, I'm just a teen, I want him to see me as a woman, not as a child.
Syndra was wearing a leather black one piece, with an excessive cleavage, leather stockings, and a weird hat...well, I guess there's always someone like that.
- You are barefoot, go get some shoes or else you won't be able to walk properly
- Walk? - She mocked as she floated in the middle of the air - What's that?
- Right, right, now, where are they? don't tell me they just left without me.
- Mister Kha'Zix, I found a letter with your name on it - Syndra said handing it to me.
A letter?
Dear Insec (So Akali wrote it)
I'm sorry we left without telling you a thing, but since you are a box I guess it doesn't matter (I'm going to kill those idiots) Besides, Zed got a nasty injury in his head when we fell, we believe he got some brain damage (Wrong, he was already like that) We decided to take him to banana lady (So they returned to the slums, huh, Soraka is hiding there, waiting for an opportunity to escape the elders and follow Vel'Koz) I just wanted to tell you a few things, please don't be mad with Zed, it may not look like it but he is suffering, he feels incredibly guilty over Vel'Koz becoming an exiled, he also feels it was his fault Soraka was branded as a traitor for protecting both of you, I know you also blame yourself, so that's why we thought it was for the best if we distracted you with something stupid, so you can at least forget about this mess, it was my idea to do this, I'm worried about you (that...was unexpected...) Zed wanted to help you in his own way, please, be kind to him, he is you friend after all (...)
With love
Stinger Akali.
PS: Bring that white haired beauty with you to the slums, I'm sure she is in love with Zed at this point (How did she...?) Girls know things, Kha. (WHAT?!)
...Zed was worried about me...he did this in order to cheer me up...I'm sure there was a better way but he is an idiot...at least he tried...and I acted like a total dick...I told him awful things...and yet...he...
...
...
These are my friends...
- Mister Kha, Are you okay?
- yeah...I'm just...i just...forget it...Zed is in the slums...let's hurry up.
- Really!? Awesome!...but...i don't know...what if he hates me?
- he won't...he is that kind of guy...I'm sure he will...
Danger...
I managed to tackle Syndra in time as a blade grazed her hair, around us, several shadows started to appear...red clothes...Noxian assassins...In Ionia?! Something is terribly wrong...how can they be here?
- Well, that was amazing - A woman with a strange attire said appearing behind one of the Noxian - He managed to dodge an attack from Talon, Maybe he is the best killing machine in the world.
- He was lucky - one of the assassins spat - I won't fail next time.
- There is no need to be aggressive, let's talk - The woman said getting closer to us - hello there, My name is LeBlanc, I have some business with you, Kha'Zix - I hid Syndra behind me - Oh, I won't hurt her, I just need you.
- Your friend trying to kill her tells another story...
- Oh! right, well, hear me out, we want to help you, we know you are hiding from the elders, we can help you dealing with them.
- The elders might be a bunch of assholes...but my instincts tell me I should kill you and your friends, so piss off.
- You are a rude one - LeBlanc scowled - well, let's do this...you come with us and we don't kill your friend...how about that...I'm sure you can deal with us...but what about her?
Shit, she is right, I can fight my way out of here...but I'm not sure about Syndra...what to do? can I sacrifice my life for this girl?...what would Vel'Koz do?...the obvious I suppose...
- You have a deal, Noxian, leave her alone - I said walking towards LeBlanc - Take me.
- Oh, we will - LeBlanc said cuffing my scythes and putting a muzzle in my mouth - ...but...I have orders...no loose ends...Sorry - she said smiling.
Damn Noxian bitch, two assassins approached Syndra, they were surprised when they were suddenly blasted into the skies...good girl.
- YOU CAN TRY IF YOU CAN, MAGGOTS! - Syndra boomed as many black spheres appeared around her - FEEL MY UNLIMITED POWER!
A shadow crept behind Syndra, It was Talon, he grabbed her by the neck and I saw his blade open a small wound on her chest...
...
...
...
Evolve and Overcome...
Uh...
what...?
...
...
...
what is happening...?
Everything is...slow...it smells...good...I can see...red...beautiful red rain...it taste...delicious...they are...running...or walking? I can't tell...they are...slow...really slow...they are screaming...they can't see me...they are so easy to break...I slice one of them...his guts taste...I... I... I want more...I need more...Consume and evolve...hunt them...chase them...clip them...devour them...they are scared...I can taste it...it's intoxicating...weaklings...this is...addictive...why was I terrified of my own nature?...this is...fun... I was born for this...I don't need anything else...I only need this...the thrill of the hunt...
...
...
...
Curious...one of them is not running away...a young female with white hair...what a foolish girl...he will soon taste the fear...wait...she is approaching me...she seems worried...worried about me...there is a small wound on her chest...i didn't do it...I must kill her...i must end her life before I...before I...
...
...
...
- Kha'Zix - Syndra asked gingerly - Are you okay?
I blinked several times...what happened?
- Uh?...where am I?...SYNDRA! CAREFUL! TALON IS...
- I know, that bastard got me when I was distracted...but...you saved me...
-What...? How did I...?-She point behind me-...No...I couldn't... I...
The Noxians were slaughtered, some of them were missing several limbs, some others were just puddles of blood...I did that...I attacked them...I killed them...I...ate some...what...? how could I...?
- Thanks, Kha'Zix - Syndra said hugging me - You saved me.
- You...are not afraid of me?
- Don't worry, you killed the quickly...I was planning on torturing them...I guess this can be considered mercy.
- You...are one crazy girl...
- I was in that palace for a reason...do you think Zed will hate me for this?
- No, he is crazier than you, I'm sure he will...
...

...
It hurts...
what...? It hurts...? how...there is a glowing blade in my chest...how...? No...it's...It's him...no...what is he doing here working with the Noxians?...why..?
- SYNDRA! - I managed to cough - r...run...just run...
- YOU MONSTER! - She yelled - I WILL DESTROY YOU.
with my remaining strength, I pushed her away from him...
- Run...run...you can't fight him...run...
- b..but...but you will...
- JUST GO!
I could see tears in Syndra's eyes as she left...run...run and find Zed...he will protect you...from...him.
- You sure took your sweet time - I heard LeBlanc said behind me - almost made me think you wanted us dead.
- That was my intention, deceiver - He said throwing me on the ground - but the Voidreaver composed himself, so I acted.
- Next time you do something like that I will kill you, Kassadin - Talon said behind him.
- Now, now, the job is done, we lost almost everyone but we have him, so the job is done.
- Are the other voidlings dead? - Kassadin asked...Dead? The others...impossible.
- One of them is...The eye of the Void is at the bottom of the sea...probably eaten by "The Harrowing", the others will follow him as soon as we deliver this one.
Vel'Koz is dead...and the others will be killed...no...this can't be...this can't be true...
- Now, it's your turn to help us - LeBlanc continued - Follow Talon and eliminated a certain someone and we are done.
- Who's my target?
- Jarvan IV, The Exemplar of Demacia, Talon will support you, but you must kill him or else they will blame Noxus, am I clear?
- As you wish, woman - Kassadin said leaving.
- Can we trust him? - I heard Talon say
- Yes...but once Jarvan is dead kill him...remember...no loose ends.
- I will enjoy doing it...and what about you?
- The girl is protected by now, I will deliver this bug to our friend in Zaun, and after the demise of Jarvan, our little war will be over in the blink of an eye.
- I hope so, give Katarina and Cassiopeia greetings.
- I will, now go.
Why...? Why are they doing this to us? Maybe...shouldn't have come to this world...the humans...are scary...My friends are prisoners in Zaun...and Vel'Koz is dead...
...

Why?
