Lucy POV
Ugh. Leave it to Dad to suddenly drop us in another world without any real preperation. I glanced around as I stood up after being dropped on the ground from the portal.
It seems that Dad left us the clothes and weapons that we were wearing so that is one good thing. Cthulu, Lilith, and William are here also, so we won't have to search for each other. Now there is only one thing to decide...........What do we do now that we are in a new world?
"Soooooooo, What do you guys want to do?"
I glanced at the rest of our group and was greeted with puzzled faces. Sure we had been wreaking havoc at our old world but that was because we were bored. We may have begged to be sent off on an adventure, but none of us had actually considered that our wish would be granted. Now that we were here, we didn't know what to do.
It was one of those ironic moments when you realize that now that you have what you wanted you have no idea what to do with it. Ugh. My brain hurts, it wasn't made to do this much thinking. All I have to do is grab a sword and cut the enemy, and if that doesn't work I get a bigger sword and do it again. I am a straight forward person, I'm not supposed to ponder the philosophy of life. Stuff like that is left for nerds with nothing better to do.
"Umm. Anyone have any ideas? We wanted to travel to other worlds, so what exactly did we want to do there?"
"Well we could always go with the standard and just run around killing strong monsters and finding trustworthy companions. We can decide what to do later after we are stronger. We could conquer the world or support someone else's rule from the shadows. We can do whatever we want here. But first we should test how strong we are. Father said that he sealed our god powers but all he really did was seal off the infinite mana supply that god's possess."
Cthulu spoke up breaking the silence as we all glanced around at each other. It wasn't a bad idea and it gave us time to decide what we really wanted with out lives. Besides we needed to figure out how strong everyone else was in this world. For all we knew they could all be demi-god level.
"I second that. What if we started out with world dominatio but halfway through decided to do something else?"
Lilith spoke up giving her thoughts in favor of my brother. We all knew that Cthulu was psychotically in love with Lilth, and honestly most of us were pretty sure that Lilith like him back, but pretended not to notice his affection so that she could mess with his head.
She was a sadistic b*tch. And that was why she was my best friend. She enjoyed helping me torture and kill, a personality quirk that I had picked up from Lana, and I helped her with her usage of illusions and mind control to torture. It was an arrangement that benefited us both and gave each of us something to talk about.
Even if we had hated each other our parents were very good friends and we often ended up either visiting them in Hell or hosting a visit from the Devil in our castle. So we became friends originally because our parents could be very scary when they wanted to and if we had fought each other they would have made us pay. But we soon came to respect each other through the art that is torture.
Some people would call us twisted or insane but it wasn't like we were raised in a normal enviroment. My best friend's father is the devil, my aunt is a demon queen, my brother's mom is an ancient creature from some obscure part of the universe, and my dad is a God-eater who scares the crap out of just about everyone.
I remember one time when we broke something called a laptop, and dad got p*ssed and caused a meteor shower that destroyed half a continent. He also continuously threatens to toss us into the void and let Navaris train us, once he even threatened to hand us over to Minerva but he quickly took it back after a couple seconds of thought. He said something about us being to freaking scary already.
"Same here. I want to test our power and then we can get stronger."
William said as he spun his sword, testing its weight and balance.
"All right then. We test our power and then go adventure until we decide what to do. Any objections? No, good. Now let's find some bandits or something, I want to test this new torture method I created before dad dropped us into a portal."
I quickly glanced around and took in our surroundings. We seemed to be in the middle of a clearing in a dense forest. Hmm. Now if only I could tell where some bandits were.
"Two miles to the east, there is a group of twenty bandits who have just finished robbing a caravan."
I glanced over as Cthulu let us know where the bandits were as his eyes glowed purple.
"I thought Dad sealed away our god powers. How come you can still use your all seing eyes?"
"Because they are not a power limited to the gods. Any being with enough mana and the correct parentage is capable of using them. Besides the only thing that makes the gods different from other beings is their virtually unlimited mana pool."
"Whatever. Anyway, let's go."
With that I tore into the forest ready to torture and kill to my heart's content, only to be interrupted by Cthulu's voice in my head.
"Your other east."
Cthulu POV
Honestly, she is just as hard headed and straight forward as Father. She just rushes off into things without doing any thinking at all.
Ah, but that's unimportant now isn't it. What is truly important is that I will spend the next several years with Lilith! This is perfect! I already know everything she does each day, and now I can make her fall in love with me!
But before that we need to find out just how strong we are in this world compared to others. Ugh. This isn't good. I'm almost starting to neglect my stalker tendencies. I already know how Lilith does absolutely everything, but for some reason I never get tired of watching her.
Hmm. I think my mother used to sing a song like that to get me to sleep when I was younger. Now how did it go? Oh, that's right. I think it went like this.
If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.
"I see you when you're sleeping, I know when you're awake, I know if you've been bad or good, so be bad for badness sake."
After that it went into some stuff about shouting and crying, then something about Santa Claus coming to town. If I remember correctly Santa Claus is from Father's original world.
I believe mother described him as psychotic pedophile who would break into people's homes, drink the kid's milk and cookies, watch them while they sleep and then put coal in their stockings.
I never really understood why Father didn't just kill this Santa person, but he claimed that he was important to world peace. He also said something about a rabbit that steals bird eggs and hides them in the grass, and a day when people morph into all kinds of monsters and go from house to house stealing candy.
Huh. I really don't understand that world. It just doesn't make sense at all. The song Father made up didn't make any sense either. It went like this-
"Ohhh, Jingle bells, Santa smells, Frosty killed the elf........."
I really didn't get what the rest of it was about but it reminded me never to go to Father's home world, it was just so..............wrong.
Anyway, we are almost to the bandits now. I told everyone to stay hidden behind the tree line since I wanted to test how strong we were first. The bandits were dividing the loot from the caravan they had massacred and now was the perfect time for an ambush.
'Hey, Lucy. Pick up a stone the size of your fist and throw it as hard as you can at the bandit leader's head. I want to see how much damage it takes to kill them. If it doesn't harm him at all then we may have to run away."
Lucy glared at me for a second before nodding and picking up a good sized stone. She didn't like taking orders but she could recognize their necessity. So she gripped the rock, took aim and threw it. All I can say is that it was far beyond my expectations.
The rock left her hand so quickly that it broke the sound barrier before it hit the poor bandit. I swear his head exploded like a watermelon. One second he was greedily grabbing gold and the next his head was just gone.
The rest of the bandit's didn't even react for several seconds as their miserable human minds tried to comprehend what had just happened. The rock had cleared away most of my concerns since it appeared we were either much stronger than any human or that someone had cast a magic that accelerated the rock.
Personally I was leaning towards the first option but hey you never know. Anyway, as soon as they realized that they were not alone, they attacked but it was too late. We tore into them like carnivorous chickens tear into giant bulls................Hmm. I don't know if your world has those so that might be a bad analogy.
The first eight died in mere moments as Lucy ripped two of them apart with her bare hands, and William beheaded two of them with his sword. Lilith and I chose a more magical approach as she cast illusions into two of their heads, trapping them in a world where they were surrounded by all of their biggest fears, which caused them to fall to the ground screaming and trying to claw their own eyes out.
It was a cruel and unnecessary tactic that caused the opponent to suffer unnecessary pain.............Damn, she is hot. That cruel sexy grin is just so, so. Ugh, so tantalizing. It's unfair. No one should be able to look that beautiful.
Anyway, I was a little more efficient and just tossed two lightning bolts through their heads. It was fast, easy, and extremely efficient. Hmm. Now their are only eleven left since we already Lucy already popped their leader's head. It should only take us a couple of seconds to...............What the devil d*mning f*ck just happened?!
I stared at Lilith's arm where there was a cut. A small bleeding cut, but a cut nonetheless. One of the bandit's arrows had misfired and bounced off of a rock, nicking her arm. But it didn't matter how it had happened, only that it had happened.
I was right here and the love of my life was injured while standing right next to me. I was right here and I couldn't stop her from being injured. Something deep inside me snapped when I realized that I had let Lilith be injured and it was at that moment that I decided.
I would show them. I would show them all! This is why you don't mess with the son of Nyarlathotep and a God-Eater!(or is it Nyarlahotep? Too many different pronunciations.)
I saw Lucy and William move forward towards the bandits with furious faces but it was too late. A deep roar of anger and hatred was ripped out of my throat as my body ripped apart. My bones melted and fused with my flesh as I lost all semblances of humanity and shifted to one of my true forms.
I may keep myself in the semblance of a human to fit in with my family and friends, but I am not a human and I am far from any mere mortal being. Even with my god-level powers sealed, I still had the transformation powersI had inherited from my mother.
People often mistake looking human for being human. I am not human. I am a monster. I may act like a human to deceive you and get you to lower your guard around me, but I am not and will never be human. Your pathetic morals do not work on me, and there is nothing in existence that can stop my wrath! Well, except for Mom and Dad, and Uncle Markal, and Aunt Minerva, and Aunt Lana and ............Damn, there really are a lot of people who can stop my wrath aren't there. Anyway.
With a horrible cracking sound I finalized my transformation and twisted my new body until I faced the stupid human garbage who had dared to hurt my beloved. I laughed as their faces twisted in disbelief and horror. They would pay for this! All of them would PAY!!!!
And with that final thought I attacked and the world went to Hell.
............................
.....................
......CLIFFHANGER! I know you guys will hate me for this but before any of you track me down and kill me, just remember that if I'm dead then no more Azran gets written. Hah! I'm using Azran against you!..............Damn, that's pathetic.
Anyway. Here is the first chapter of Volume 2 of Azran. Please feel free to leave your thoughts about this chapter at the bottom. I welcome any and all ideas(even if they're stupid.).
