Evening of July 30 2009
The sun had already set, yet it was still bright, brighter than the dim light of the lamp post stationed in his way home. Their cold stares and mocking smiles made him froze, he could hear them murmuring in their native language, they were all men yet some were dressed in revealing women’s cloth. He slowly walked, intending to pass by them peacefully, he was nervous, his heartbeat echoing through his now sensitive ears. One of them shouted, it was not that loud however he was alarmed, the seemingly normal shout sounded like a gunshot to his ear.
“Oi Tisoy” one of the men shouted.
His alert level raised to the max, they were blocking the path home, He sprinted to the direction of the abnormally high pine trees, the heavy stomping of dried leaves and the creaking of broken branches, muffled by his loud panting, then the worst happened, He slipped, hitting his head on a tree he fell unconscious.
He felt a fist drive into his stomach regaining his consciousness. He was reminded of a past experience he wished to forget, he could feel two people holding him tightly, they were not a small group, probably numbering in the tens.
“what’s wrong with you?” he asked, these were the guys he constantly pass by drinking near at a shed near his pathway home.
“He’s awake pin him down” said one of them.
They hurriedly pushed him down flat on his belly, he was confused and frightened as to what they plan to do,
“Bring the lube, take his pants off”
“oi what the fucks with the lube?” shouted Gerald.
“Well you’ll know soon enough” said the guy behind him. His obvious grin instilled fear to Gerald.
He muster up all his strength to break free, but pinned down in his hands and feet by people much muscular than him it was all for naught, he started to scream.
“gag him”
With his pants off they took his underwear and gagged it into his mouth. He could feel the slimy liquid sliding on his butt cheek, followed by the painful sensation of his ass ripping. A memory flashed as he writhed in pain, It was just like the time when they went hiking, tricked into thinking that his father left him a present inside the old cabin in the woods, he was excited, genuinely happy, only to be raped countless times, a memory he buried deep inside his mind, resurfaced.
“I cant wait anymore, hold him up” said one of them.
To his surprise his thing was hard against his will, they laughed,
“Hehe you like that” said one of them now holding tightly to his hair, continuously forcing his thing inside him.
Contrary to what the guy said, he didn’t like this at all. It broke him much more than anything, he didn’t feel this much pain from anything before, getting beat wasn’t so bad compared to this, this shit crushed his pride,
“You like it don’t you” Said one of them, putting a lube in Gerald’s thing and pushing it in inside of him.
As his body reacted in a different way than what he thought it should, he was humiliated. He despised himself for feeling that way. he was not aroused or anything and yet, and yet, and yet, and yet it wa-
He felt his rationality fading as countless thoughts and emotions jumbled in his mind, anger, shame, sadness, then he felt empty
“Someone help me,” he mumbled, despairing that no one would hear his cries for help. Instead, he consoled himself by recalling happy memories. The memory of his mom comforting him interrupted by the memory of his father beating him, the memory of finally leaving his home to attend school interrupted by the memory of his peers bullying him, the memory of living a new life jumbled with the memories of him getting his ass kicked, and the memories of the children he started to care about yet again interrupted by the painful sensation induced by the ongoing rape.

This thought repeated a thousand times, overlapping one another, he could feel his brain throbbing, the never-ending flashing of memories felt like eternity, it felt so cramped in his head that everything is hazy anymore, his thoughts, like entangled strings, made no sense anymore, and so... Snap Gerald broke.-
Now left alone Gerald slowly stood up and said,
“Its fine Gerald, I’ll pay them back for sure, rape them, kill them I’d even be thrilled to eat them”
-
“ Now that’s one ominous looking forest, shall we go then?” commented Cardo, staring at the dark spaces behind the dense forest.
“You stay at the back Mr. Gerald” said Linda , As they enter the forest, having no clue of their fourth company.
Sam slowly climbed down the trunk, Knowing that they won’t take him with them even if he insisted, he had hidden himself.
‘Its my turn to help Jonathan' he thought, hastily following behind Gerald, Cardo and Linda.
He could hear them conversing as he made his way through the forest.
Gerald was 5 steps away from Cardo and Linda, having heard a footstep from behind them he was checking his back every now and then worried that someone might be following them. ‘shit, not now' he thought.
“That reminds me Kid, you can be pretty childish sometimes, why did you sign your name as The Boogeyman?” asked Cardo, turning back to look at Gerald but to his surprise he was gone, “Kid? Where’d you go?”
Sam suddenly heard a humming, it was drawing closer and closer then, it stopped.
“Found ya” whispered a voice behind him.
He was startled and terrified as tears welled up in his eyes, and before he could scream, a pair of hands covered his mouth.
-
“Linda I think we’ve been duped its been 2 hours” mocked Cardo.
“I don’t think someone would go that far for a prank” replied Linda, it was too elaborate for a prank plus the emotions Gerald had shown would make him a terrific actor, it was far too real, She continued, “lets search a bit longer”.
“Sure, sure what ever you say” said Cardo, Continuously tapping his broken flashlight repeatedly, he may appear unconcerned but in truth he was worried for the kid, the glint in his eyes as he persisted in convincing him, his determination reminded him of his younger days, he didn’t understand why but he felt a sense of camaraderie with the kid.
“Shhhh, don't tap that, I can hear something.” Asked Liah, who began to move slowly, bending her knees to muffle the sound of her footsteps.
Stopping in his track, Cardo can hear a violent munching sound behind a fallen pine tree trunk, probably a wild animal he thought, signaling Linda to approach from the other side, he slowly lifted three fingers…then two…and one.
Cardo turned around by the trunk's corner, flashing his light in the direction of the sound.
“Free-“ shouted Cardo, his throat tightened, his normally composed expression had crumpled into one of fear.
“ARGGGHH” Linda screamed, she was on her knees, violently panting, trembling and now puking.
Cardo tried to calmed himself, trying to force his words but instead he puked. In his years of experience it was the worst he had seen.
Gerald was clutching Sam's head, devouring his now half-eaten face, Sam's innards dangling from his bared chest and belly with blood constantly flowing out. Gerald unfazed, continued to eat Sam's face like a ravenous beast.

August 9, 2009
“That reminds me Kid, you can be pretty childish sometimes, why did you sign your name a-“
“As wha-“ replied Gerald, but next thing he knew, he was handcuffed and was currently being escorted to a city hall, flashes of camera were blinding his eyes and several media reporters were questioning him. Suddenly he was assaulted,
“You fucking monster” shouted one of the guys behind the rail, throwing an egg at Gerald.
‘huh? Monster?...Me?’ Gerald thought, staring back at the guy.
Incited, the crowd started shouting and throwing, one or two wouldn’t be that painful but several numbering to tens were thrown. Gerald started a call for help, he took cover to a nearby cop only to be kicked back.
“piece of shit”
“you should just die, monster!”
“you’re the worst go fucking die”
Confused as to what was happening Gerald couldn’t do anything but cry for help repeatedly taking cover at a cop only to be kicked back again and again.
‘help me’, he cried, but no one would answer his pleas.
As he decide to make a run for it, a familiar face in the front row of the crowd caught his attention, It was Liah her usual cheerful smiles with her red lips and round eyes now replaced by a cold piercing glare. Tolerating the pain of getting thrown at, Gerald stopped,
“Liah? Hel-“ Before he could continue speaking, Liah threw a stone straight above his eye.
Then another, hitting Gerald’s forehead
“How could you?” She screamed so loudly that her voice seemed to break.
“How could you?”
“How could you?...to the kids, how could you do that…you’re a monster, they’re right you should just go fucking die” wailed Liah, it was the first time she had ever cursed someone out of hatred, An intolerably painful feeling arose within and she was unable to stop herself from flinging stones.
Gerald stood still receiving the endless stones and eggs the crowd are throwing. Gerald felt numb
‘she’s in pain…because of me?, Nothing makes sense anymore, kids? Me? a monster? ’
“Alright that’s enough” shouted the cop coming from the inside of the court.
Cardo went down the steep steps then hurriedly dragged Gerald inside.
“Mr. Cardo, what happened?” asked Cardo,
Cardo’s eye opened wide in surprise, the kid had stayed quiet all this time. but now he could see the old look in his eyes.
“this is unbelievable, is that you kid?”
