"Where in the hell am I !?!?" Ivan screamed as he found himself in the middle of a forest surrounded by dead bodies, the moonlight shimmering off of there blood stained clothes.
"What kinda fucked up game is this?Is this my punishment? What is that?" Ivan freaked out as the blood appeared to converge on one place and began to solidify.
"Demon!" Ivan screamed as he tripped over his own feet as he turn to run.
The blood solidified into a humanoid blob that began and began to define into recognizable features. A couple of horns and talons would appear over its surface only to submerge and reappear in another location. Black pulsing veins began to appear under its surface, pulsating in an unnatural pattern as Ivan could only watch in horror.
"Why can't I move? This ... is this my body? Didn't I die? Is this hell? Is this my punishment?" Ivan questioned as he noticed the lack of scars on his hands and skin that seemed decades younger.
*KKRRRRRRRKKKK* Ivan's thoughts were interrupted by the monstrosity's screams as the outer layer of congealed blood ruptured to leave what could only be described as the habitant of nightmares standing before him.
"Run!!" Ivan screamed internally as the creature walked towards him as it dragged its arms along the ground as its talons left trails in the ground.
"What do you want!?!?" Ivan screamed as the creature towered over him and stared at him with its piercing, glowing eyes and horns that seemed sharp enough to pierce anything.
*KKKRRRRRRRRKKK* The creature roared again, this time as it impaled Ivan.
*AAAHHHHHHH* Ivan screamed as his body was lifted off the ground and held in place by the creatures talons.
'Not again! I refuse to die again!' Ivan screamed mentally as he focused his entire will on survival. Unaware of what was occurring around him, the creatures heartbeat slowed and the pulsating slowed as the blood began to flow into Ivan bring unknown changes.
'It hurts, worst than anything I've felt before. What did I do to deserve this fate? Why as I abandoned? ' Ivan thought as the creature fully dissolved and entered his body.
*AAAAHHHHHHHH* Ivan roared as the gaping hole that was in his chest closed and dropped to ground cradling his head.
'Why was I abandoned? Why was I betrayed? Was I not good enough? I did my best and yet I was still not good enough? I was used and abused but I never gave in and yet what was the point? I was still left behind, I was still never loved, I still murdered countless innocents for what?' Ivan thought as his consciousness drifted like a ball of light in an ocean of blood.
'I refuse to give in, I will be damned if I let what happened before happen again. I was abandoned so what? I'll make my own family, I refuse to be used or abused, I will be dammed if I die alone again!!!!' Ivan roared as he came to his sense and aware of his surroundings.
"Huh." Ivan said as he found himself elbows deep in the bowels of a bear and a mouthful of intestines.
*FFLLLFFFFF* Ivan vomited up his entire stomach content as he stared at the butchered corpse laying in front of him.
"What the hell happened?" Ivan said as he tried to clean the vomit off of himself. He felt a tug mentally and focused on it only to see a blazing star orbited by a large sphere of black oozing blood and a smaller sphere of glowing blue mist.
'What is that?' Ivan thought as he felt the intent to murder everything before him come from the black blood.
'I need to be cautious of that, I have no idea where that creature went. What's this mist? I didn't see how it came to be.' Ivan focused on the mist only to feel energy and heat spread from his chest throughout his body.
'I feel amazing, I hope this isn't a dream.' Ivan focused back on his surroundings only to find himself glowing slightly.
"This is amazing." Ivan stared at his hands glowing only to watch the glow intensify there and dim elsewhere.
"This is starting to get uncomfortable. " Ivan said as he began to shake his hands as the glow intensified more and accidentally focused on one hand.
"I can't take it anymore! " He screamed as he flung his hand around hoping for the strange energy to go away.
*SHHMMHHSS* A spout of fire shot out of Ivan's hand, torching the poor corpse of the bear.
"I just shot fire from my hand." Ivan said absentmindedly as he stared at the bear and the fire that began to spread to the trees.
"No!" Ivan rushed to put out the flames before they could burn him alive in a forest fire.
"I need to find civilization and find out whatever the hell is going on." Ivan said as he put out the rest of the fire and began to stumble through the forest as he searched for signs of where he awoke at.
"Maybe if I get back I can find out clues of where this body was from." Ivan continued on to stumble through the forest for hours.
"Here it is finally!" Ivan tan over to where his body was lying on the ground and the absent blood.
"So the creature wasn't a dream. Wait, are these wagon tracks? Maybe a carriage came through here but where did it go? I can follow these and check for more clues on the way." Ivan began to follow the trail hoping to find any information that he could.
"Are these deer tracks? They are massive, the antlers must be big enough to puncture ten men at once. I hope I don't run into one." Ivan continued to find unusual tracks on the trail through the forest.
