Everything was red.
"WHAT JUST HAPPENED!!!" Nate beyond shocked.
Where Nate was standing was dark, black street but now it was red and he was there alone.
"What just happened? Is it the Nad dream people say where you feel everything real but can't woke up?"
"But then what happened all day I remember it all and the old man just now_"
"No but_ did I pass out from seeing that old man and all that blood?"
"But then what about those two? I couldn't saw them clearly but what were those their body build and height were different from any normal person I ever saw."
Nate. A simple boy you will found anywhere was in a hellish situation words can't unexplainable. And he didn't knew but hid situation was gonna get more hellish.
"I don't see light or any kind of it's source but everything is glowing red... blood red. Too much crimson"
It was like the world around Nate was soaked into blood.
"But then what about others the reason why I felt everyone disappeared..."
Now Nate was calmed doen and was thinking with deep thoughts.
"Let's just look at area first."
Nate exited the street where he go in.
And nothing had changed as just few seconds ago.
The roads were crimson, going endless. And houses, street lights,buildings and sky everything was red.
"What is happening" Nate said calmly but he himself wasn't calm
"What just happened sky suddenly become red!? And I can't see sun or anything how is everything so bright!?"
There was no sun in sky but everything was clear as day.
"What the he'll is happening with me am I hallucinating or is ts really a dream. I am becoming mad now"
And he just randomly knocked at a house.
"Hey is anyone home? I want to ask something."
Nate said but no one answered.
"I feel like my head will become mess!"
He tried to open the door and a click sound generated.
"It is open?"
And then opened the whole door and saw inside, even he didn't imagine this.
Unimaginable things were happening to Nate today but even if he imagined something unimaginable he couldn't have gotten a single hint about this, there he saw a bigger than human same size as gorilla a "creature" he never saw before.
Gasps
Nate didn't even flinched or take a step back he just stand there not to let that "creature" know him.
The creature didn't saw or hear him entering of course he couldn't have since he was so into making sound he didn't even notice or saw him and he did everything wild.
Nate : "... ... ..."
Nate couldn't even felt his body. Moving even if he had commanded because even if he did his body betrayed him. His body know without anything but just a single look at what the beast was doing.
Munc! Munch!
Crack! Crack!
The sound of bonds being cracked and broke was echoing through hall the beast's mouth was at front in same direction as Nate so he naturally didn't saw him.
But all around his body was blood and his hands it's legs and from his stomach red liquid was coming.
And he was eating just more supplies of where the blood came from.
There were four bodies and all fours head was gone and other parts too.
Even a kid like Nate would knew where they had gone.
Crack! Crack!
Munch! Munch!
The sound didn't stop but gone and gone and crimson water just flood from the beast.
Even Nate could tell if he did something same will happen to him and who knows how but he literally didn't move, he didn't even know he was moving or not nor he was even breathing.
And then
Everything had been finished now nothing left and then the beast turned back.
Nate's eyes widened not because of he knew Nate was next but because something else.
"Sorry for making yoi wait but I didn't know you won't budge me"
He gone to Nate just little distance between them but not because of closeness the beast in size was like gorilla in front of a normal height human, like height and width comparison of adult and a little kid.
The beast had no eyes and no mouth yet who knows how he was doing that just now and speaking now.
"Well then how should we begin how about eating contest? Sounds fun!"
"?" Just little Nate show how confusion and panic
"How about these people I still haven't had enough so don't worry it will be fair with new ones" He said
But then he flinched like remembering something very important.
"AHHHH! Sorry I haven't introduced myself I am newly doing everything right now" He said in panic
In panic and go into knees and apologized in manner.
"What?" Very little murmur actually even murmur was more audible than what Nate took out from his lips but the beast was very fast and literally like beast in all physical aspects.
"Are you confused?_ sorry of course you would be I am sorry?" Apologized again while kneeling
"Sorry actually it is a different dimension from your original one" he started explaining "right now you have been transferred here from upper once you could say it is a lower form of your dimension and it is same by looks but it only goes as far as looks."
"And here is my name card actually people seem to forget my name when we part ways so I gave everyone who I met this"
He extended his hand and took a metal from it's body, it's stomach from injecting it's left hand.
And he placed the metal looking thing in his big hands and show it to Nate.
"It's "Ĺrakaoa" hello"
"And you must have been sent by those two you must have seen them no one can come here without it."
"It?"
As Nate said that Ĺrakaoa's eyes seemed to smirk
"Greed"
"Greed?"
"Yeah, Greed the greatest thing one could have everyone and beings have greed for something even when they get their hands on it they want something else their greed shifts to something else it is with no step back road.
"As long as one have it the desire for something same as greed, actually desire and greed both are same desire is just a good sounding for greed"
"But you must had geed for something and wanted it so you let yourself be here technically the door was just opened but you came here yourself."
"I came here by my desire? Nate said not calm but scared
"Yeah you are getting it now so I don't have to say it again and again like these people" and he twisted his neck to the blood at end of hallway where he was till now
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing special no matter how much I just said they said to turn them go again but I can't have that much authority of thus dimension"
"Authority?"
"It's not something worth mentioning but I couldn't and then they agreed to what to do and we played our black game but then they lost and tried to run away so I didn't had another option."
"Just because they tried to run away?" Nate said
"NO! NO! don't get it wrong" he on kneels again and bowed the head very low "they lost and tried to run away so punishment was invisible rather it was given"
"Of course if they had won they had granted the thing they had desired but if they had lost all happened to them was just their body will burst with our lower dimension river which is the symbol of pain itself so they weren't had to go through such hard ship but just one second of 100 deaths for just one second it's reasonably low aren't it èven then..."
Nate was now getting tired from standing in same position now.
"Sorry I just started talking non important." He bowed again "as I was saying you have came here by yoir desire for something if you achieve what this dimension will tell to do then you will get what you wanted but if you not then what I just tell will happen to you, so it's great I explained not important stuff so it is beneficial for you all you will have is just beyond pain 100 deaths for just 1 second" he said eyes sparkling like he have done something unachievable
"Well truth to be told I didn't like doing this stuff but those two are my superiors and they have been ordered by their superiors so it is like your working pyramid but I felt bad making people under me do this stuff so I just decided to bear these sins myslef" he looked like he might get started crying out of emotion
Nate thought out of such disastrous situation 'maybe he isn't bad if I just do what he tells and somehow win over him I can be free' he thought to wear the mask of good person and win someone over.
Ĺrakaoa said "After all once I got the taste of living flesh it's so beyond tasty plus raw so I can't stop myself and want more and more" he said now in big smug eyes and kneeled and bowed "so please if you lose let me eat you letting ones precious body to root is just too cruel I will make it pain free for yoi if you won't resist so if you somehow didn't do it then please let me eat you" eyes sparkled with hunger and bloodlust.
