4. Small massacre and big problems

4. Small massacre and big problems

I opened a window on my hotel room, activated and flew outside in direction of the seven-mile road. When I reached my destination with help of my new ability it was already a 23:11. I landed in nearby bushes where I deactivated and started to walk alongside the sidewalk.

An hour passed before I heard a gunshot. I speeded up with my superhuman speed in direction of the gunshot. When I reached the destination everyone was already gone except for one useless dead body.

Another hour passed ‘I am getting bored. I was expecting whole streets crowded with gangsters. If I will not meet anyone in the next hour I would have to start visiting some houses’

Then I saw a small group of people at a gas station. They were dressed in what would you describe as gangster clothes. Loud rap music was playing from their direction.

‘Ohh, they are so cool.’ I laughed ‘And that is the exact reason why I will kill the. I was never cool and I always hated people pretending to be cool by wearing weird clothes and listening to the music without a melody.’

One of them looked in my direction and said “Look at dis boys, a new whore in our quarta.”

“Yo' sure dude, biatch looks too young. N' What the fuck be wit' dat her clothes n' mask.”

“Doesn't matter, dis be our territory so we gotta have a free sample.”

‘Hoho, so now I will get to kill someone and it would be self-defense at the top of that! I was right to come here

They started to approach me. I wasn’t moving while trying to look as scared as possible.

“Why the fuck are yo' so scared, we gotta make yo' feel soo good.” said one of them with a disgusting look on his face. While others started to laugh.

One of them was already close enough to try to touch my left breast. His arm extended towards me, but I caught his arm and pulled before he could touch me. The next moment I was holding his arm, and he was with dump looks on his face looking on his shoulder splashing blood all around from where was supposed to be his arm. Then the whole street was filled with the cry of pain. Other gangsters pulled out their weapons.

“What the fuck dat biatch did ta Lamar?"

“It was only an accident, I just pulled and it happened,” I said with a small giggle.

“Dat biatch is crazy.”

Filled with anger on being called crazy I jumped on one of them before he had a chance to pull a trigger and stuck my hand into his belly and started to pull out his intestines. Others tried to shoot me but their bullets were caught midair by . I ran toward another one of them still holding the intestines in my hand. I threw them to the face of the third one to temporarily blind him while maniacally laughing.

“Achhhh” cried now one-armed man before I got 17 CE from him dying out of shock or blood loss.

“Dat biatch is a demon,” shouted one with intestines on his face as I got 23 CE from the owner of intestines.

“What is up boys? Are you not having fun? So sad, but at least I have fun!” as I finally caught my victim and thrown him on the ground, and stomped on his chest getting 19 CE. My feet sunk into his inwards and lucky for him he died pretty quickly.

The intestine face was no laying on the ground mumbling something while covered in his own piss and blood of his friends.

I looked at my shoes and clothing now covered in blood “You idiots you ruined my clothes! I hope there is some ability to clean this up… ” I waited for ability recommendation for few moments but “Hmm nothing? Such a shame Next time I will have to be more careful.”

“Please miss, let me be. I have a family…” said intestine face with pleading voice before I interrupted him “I don’t care, If I spared everyone with family there would be no prey for me”

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

‘Now that I think of it I never used any ability on living human’ I grinned and activated with 80 CE. From my hand, a tendril of red-colored lightning shot towards the intestine face. His body exploded with a big red fountain.

‘What? This is not how lightning works. It was supposed to burn him not explode him. And where is the sound of that lightning? I should really stop thinking about such useless stuff…’ I thought with a face full of wonder before the interface showed up.

I wanted to leave but I heard someone shouting at me “Hey, What the fuck do yo' think yo' are doin'. Shooting in the air on my fuckin' territory.”

It was another bigger group of gangsters. By their mood, I could tell they couldn’t see that massacre from their distance in the dark.

‘Why now? I have no mood for this right now. I just want to clean this disgusting blood from me’ irritated by being in dirty clothes I activated with 900 of CE. Multiple tendrils of lightning poured out of my hands in the direction of gangsters. This time there was a sound too. It was a loud bang similar to thunder during the storm. Lightning instantly reached gangsters, tore them apart, evaporated their remains, and even destroyed the sidewalk they were standing on. But it didn’t stoped on them and continued towards houses on the street, destroying them in flashes of red light. It was over in instant. What remained in front of me was pure destruction.

‘Oh my… I think I overdid this. I would bet that this will have consequences. I wanted to go to this city to remain hidden. But now it all went to… Calm down maybe they will blame it on meth lab exploding, gas leak… Yeah, I know they will probably not.’

I activated my and flew directly to my hotel. I flew inside through the window of my room and deactivated my ability.

The first thing I did was to take a shower to clean myself. Then I tried to wash my clothes. I had no idea about the material used to make that clothes but it was surprisingly easy to wash.

A few hours later:

I was lying on my bed pondering about what just happened ‘How can I make such stupid decisions when am I boosting my intelligence so much. Is it even working?’

After of minutes of lying on my bed, I decided to turn on the TV to look for any mentions of this accident. And by some stupid coincidence in news right now started to talk about it.

“Now I will give word to our reporter Clarissa Johanson who is directly on the place of the event.

“Hello there John. I am directly in the quarter where this for now unexplainable event happened. Police blocked the whole area and are forbidding any access there. But we have here eyewitness of this event. Anthony, can you tell us what happened?”

“Yo, I was sitin' in my house n' than huge red flash, followed by a bang. I wanted ta go out, ta check What was happenin' but I was scared wit' all these gangs 'round here.”

“Yes, you heard him correctly, it was a red flash.”

“Wait Clarissa we managed to obtain shocking CCTV footage from the nearby gas station. And we will play it to you our viewers right now. But before that, we want to warn you of the material inappropriate for young viewers ”

Then they played cam footage from that pump which was behind me the whole time. It showed me killing my prey and then shooting that lighting. My face was hidden behind my mask but anyone could see my white hair and my figure. I turned off the TV in a panic. Then I tried to find an ability to shapeshift on my list but all of the shapeshifting abilities on the list were capable only of changing me to some terrible monsters.

‘This is even a bigger problem than I thought. But I guess there is not a big chance of them identifying me only from my hairs and figure.’
