Chapter 2 - awakening

"This world is often veiled with mysterious and conspiracy often as a method to hide the truths of this world but most truths are more loosely hidden then others that's why we exist to keep those truths away from public eye and contain any anomaly in this broken world"

With blurred vision Soul awakes tied to a chair in a small room with tailmans from top to bottom

He looks ahead to see a mysterious man wearing tinted glasses that hides glowing bright blue eyes sating comfortable on a leather chair

"Hello here,Alitair Augustus I'm a member of the H.C.S and you are case number 024"Klein said with a amazed voice

*A few hours earlier

Soul standing outside the abandoned hospital looking at his phone,he can sense the eerie,evil aura in the air and surrounding the hospital,soul wondered what would bring Mimi and Chris to a place like this they know the law and how it's forbidden to enter structures from the old world

With a reluctant sigh he opened the gate and as soon as he took a single step onto the land he suddenly finds himself inside the hospital hallway

He looks around in confusion then covers his nose as he smells yhe metallic smell of blood then his ears are suddenly overwhelmed by the deafing screams of Mimi

Without a second thought he runs towards the screams,the hallways seems to stretch on and on each turn seeming to be endless as he reached his destination

He sees Mimi being twisted and held by the humanoid creature that seems to chuckles at the suffering it courses

Soul throwing his backpack at it runs coursing the creature to turn and face him as he drop kicks it away, fuelled by pure adrenaline he Carried Mimi on his back and begins to run away as he looks around for Chris

He rans across the hallways up stairs as his followed by a mass of flash and eyes

"What the hell is that"he muttered while looking at the bloodied and shaking Mimi and at the object she's holding

"A..a finger"he tried to mutters but it came out as a loud shout before he stopped and saw Chris mutilated remains

His eyes widened in horror and his breathing heavily as a cold sweat fall from his chin

Then like a sickly herald of the inevitable end the creatures laughter ring out from the walls as it slowly moved towards Soul

Soul stepping back holding onto Mimi tightly takes up a defence stand knowing he isn't going to go down without a fight before he can even react Mimi eyes suddenly glow a bright red as she drops the finger and bits down at soul neck coursing him to scream in pain and shakes her off

'she bit me!?' the thought filled soul mind with shock and confusion but also overwhelming fear

Soul holding his bleeding neck looks on at Mimi who mutters in an ancient language before violently twisting her own neck

The creatures runs towards Soul who lifts his arms up in order to defend himself but is dropped kicked out of tht hospital onto the field and landing onto the field

Soul gasping for air and breathing heavily

His thoughts racing about what is this creature his fighting and what are his chances of leaving alive

He tries to get back into his feet only to realise his right arm is broken

He groans in pain

"Bite"a mysterious voice rang out before with a massive crash a massive serpent appears from the ground and shallows the creatures whole

From the shadows a young man not much older then Soul appears wearing all black clothing with white air and pale skin

"This is bad, a forbidden artifact was unsealed along with a classed three ananomly and by a bunch of kids no less"

His voice was emotionaless as if this entire situation wasn't anything new to him

He walked towards Soul and gave him a cold enigmatic stare with his piecing black eyes before helpings him up and taking the finger from his hands

"You one crazy human for trying to fight an ananomly without having any awakening"he quipped while laying the very much confused and Shocked Soul near a bench

Soul mind began to wonder with unanswered questions,what is this creature,who is this person and what will happen to Mimi,His consciousness slowly began to fade until he had the sound of slicing

the creature having cut through the serpent with its bare hands marely looked on at the two,it's eyeless face locked on to the finger that now rests in Souls hand

Before appearing behind the mysterious boy and punching him though the hospital wall

Soul looking on in shock as the creatures slowly made its way towards him like a predator stalking its prey

He could feel it deep withing his core that this was the end

Then the mysterious boy voice rang out commanding him to run away and explaining that only an anomaly can beat an anomaly

Soul about to turn tall and run is stopped by the fear overwhelming his body as the creature puts its clawed hand on his shoulder and lets out a light chuckle before ripping the hand in which Soul held the finger off,slashing blood all over the courtyard

Soul falling to his feet screams out in pain as the creatures raises the hand along with the finger and prepared to devour it

The mysterious boy attempting to reach for his phone is stopped by an invisible force as the creature marely laughs at his useless attempt to call reinforcement

"Damnit"the mysterious boy cursed in frustration as he looked on at the creature as it prepared to devour both the finger and Soul

Soul's attempts to fight back proved to be useless as the creature slowly lowered him into its gaping maw

"Idiot only a ananomly can beat an ananomly you can't win, just let go of the finger"shouted the mysterious boy as he tried to get to his feet

Soul feeling that his life will soon be over looked for any possible escape routes but his glaze quickly went to Mi MI who lauef helpless on the floor then at the mysterious boy who had been trying to get to feet,then finally at the finger in his hands

In the last attempts to save himself soul let go of the finger and opened his mouth eating the finger whole,the mysterious boy Shocked and wide eyed as his thoughts raced and panick seeps in

'this is one of the worse case scenarios,a human eating a 0 ranked artifact,what will happen now and will I be able to stop this alone'the mysterious boy thought as he stared at soul still body

the loud sound of a heart beating that seem to be more like the bell of an cathedral and the deafing sound of muscle twisting and shuddering then glass filled the night sky as the moon is clouded ,the creatures hands burst into pieces

As Soul jumping mid air towards the mysterious boy is completely covered by shadows and his eyes glowing a bright red,the creatures screaming in pain runs towards Soul who with a slight wave of his hand turns it into ashes then chuckles

The Chuckle soon turned into a vicious laughter as soul out stretches his hands,two more pairs of eyes appear under his original pair

"This-this is the worse case scenario,the artifact as incarnated"the mysterious boy muttered before proforming an hand sign

Soul his four pairs of eyes looking down at the mysterious boy who unleashes a burst of dark energy that blinks soul for a moment

Then in a blink of an eye Soul appeared infront of the mysterious boy holding both his hands,his hand now restored

"Listen to me your not yourself,you need to get control or else..."the mysterious boy muttered his voice muffed by his shallow gasps

Soul letting go of the mysterious boy remembers the words his grandfather had told him and with seemingly pained groans he returns to normal the other pair or eyes closing

"Whoa what happened"Sol asked his mind seeming disorganised and blurred,he falls down barely able to remain conscious as he looks up at the night sky to see a man who seems to stand on pure air

The man with messy black hair and pitch black sunglasses seemed to smirk

"What's the situation Myster"the man shouted

The mysterious boy now revealed to be Myster marely looked up in disbelief before following unconscious himself

The man, Altair iAugustus lending in between them looks on at the scene before him

"Three people,one decreased, and two awakened this is going to be an interesting year"he monologued while smirking his voice more amazed the annoyed

As everything pauses

"Wait you where the floating guy"soul said with a curious look on his face

Back within the room where Altair with a sheepish grin marely chuckled

"Yea it was more but back to the important bit,you see the magical artifact you ate can't be destoryed unless it as a host so I was instructed to execute you but I saw that was a waste I mean not everyone can do what you and your friend did"Klein said nonchalantly as if this wasn't a matter of life or death

"So I'll let you decide...
