As I looked at the lights in the distance, I felt an unyielding hatred. "You said that the people over there are cheating on someone," I said. He smiled and nodded.
"Yes, they are betraying someone to say the love. Stabbing them in the back and twisting the dagger. Just because they think they love each other, but it's nothing more than a pathetic and wicked lust." He said as my chest started to pound with a burning desire to rip them to shreds.
Feeling myself drawn to that area, I started moving through the forest; the bushes and trees couldn't stop me. A pounding inside my head screaming out, "KILL! KILL! KILL!" Telling me to move faster and faster as I started to glide through the forest with haste until I turned invincible and moved through the campsite putting the fire out.
"What's happening?!" A girl screamed out. A mist began to cover the area as a man opened the tent door. "It looks like the fire went out." He said as I floated around him, my mouth watering and moving closer, making the man shiver. "Why did it get so cold? It's summer." His words made me stop.
It was the beginning of fall when my daughter's birthday was. How long have I been dead? "Almost three years, it took your soul that long to be reborn as a wraith." He said, making the two people freak out. "Who are you?!" The man yelled out at the old man, making him chuckle.
"I am just a spectator, watching someone's first hunt." He said to the man who was standing in front of a half-naked woman. "What do you mean by the first hunt?" The man said, making the old man hit his forehead.
"That's the wrong choice of words, I am sorry, it's more like the first time giving out punishment to pathetic shit stains." The old man said. These words made the man walk over and grab the old man's shirt. "Who are you calling shit stains?" He said, pulling the old man closer.
"Well, I mean, how else would you describe a father fucking his son's girlfriend?" The old man said, making the man swing a fist as he roared out. But the old man phased through his body. Making the woman scream. "WHAT ARE YOU?!" She said, making the old man chuckle.
"I am what you would call a god, but this isn't about me. It's about helping a new child learn how to walk." He said, slowly turning into a mist as his smiling face disappeared as he spoke. "Have fun, you three." Before being followed by a sinister laugh.
"What do you mean three?!" The man yelled out. I watched as the woman panicked; her fear gave me power, and I felt it flowing inside me. It was addictive, like when someone who was in the desert finally came across water after not being able to drink any. I wanted more of this fear.
I couldn't help but laugh as a screech echoed across the area. "What was that?!" The woman grabbed the man's arm.
"I don't know." He said, shining a flashlight around, trying to find the source of the screech. Slowly revealing myself inside the fog, I quickly shone the flashlight on myself as the man yelled out. "RUN!" He said, pulling the woman as they ran into the forest. But they could get away from it as a trail of sweet-smelling fear followed them.
*Eeeee!*
I roared out, excited by the thought of eating them, as I gave chase.
"Keep up!" The man yelled out as the woman struggled to keep up with his pace until she tripped, and he lost his grip, looking back to see me chasing him as he looked at the woman, who was holding out her arm. "I am sorry." He said before running off. He had left her as she looked over her shoulder, trying to stand up.
I grabbed hold of her hair, pulling it as she screamed out in pain. I flew into the air, making the man stop and look back. I grabbed her naked breasts and smiled as I ripped the flesh from her torso, making her scream. The man started to run again as the woman's screams echoed from behind him.
He thought he needed to get out of here; living was far more important than his son's girlfriend. Everyone would understand; he couldn't do anything against that. It's not his fault; they didn't do anything wrong. He finally reached his parked truck and reached into his pocket, pulling his keys out.
His hands were shaking as he dropped them. "Fuck!" He yelled, picking them out as he unlocked the truck, got in, turned it on, and pulled out onto the road. His engine roaring to life as he sped off, entering the mountain road, speeding along the curvy road at breakneck speed until he finally felt like he had gotten away, slowing down.
"What the fuck was that?" He said to himself, but the next moment, a skinless body landed on his hood as it broke through the window. "Help me." A woman's voice said as he looked at the woman, faking out as he swerved, hitting the guardrail, sending the truck flipping over it and tumbling down the mountain.
It rested upside down on the road below as a van slammed on its brakes and children screamed. I watched as a man and a woman got out of the van to help the truck. The woman had a black aura to her as a voice whispered into my ear. "She has been abusing her sons in a naughty way." My eyes lit up as I could feel something like saliva fill my mouth.
Going invisible as I floated down, a scream from the woman rang out as the man opened the driver's side door. The man driving the van quickly pulled away when he saw a skinless body in the truck. "What did you do to them?" He asked the truck driver.
"I didn't do anything; it was a monster that did it." The wicked father said, crawling out of the truck. Both his legs were broken, and one of his arms was. "You have to help me, it's after me." He pleaded as the two helpers quickly ran back to the van, got inside, and made a U-turn, speeding off. As they thought he was a killer.
"DON'T LEAVE ME!" He called out as I laughed, making him quickly look around. He could see me. As I landed on the road, I stepped onto some glass, making it shatter. He quickly looked my way as I revealed myself.
"I am sorry, I shouldn't have slept with my son's daughter. But she was the one who came onto me; it's not my fault." He pleaded as he moved to sit on his ass and started to scoot back. "It was her fault that I did it; if she hadn't tempted me, I would never have betrayed my son. You have to believe me." He pleaded while moving back.
I tilted my head and raised a hand pointing to the sky as I moved it side to side, telling no. "Who are you to judge me?!" He roared out, saliva flying from my mouth. "I am human, I make mistakes! What gives you the right to do this?!" He roared out again, but this time the old man's voice rang out. "I give him the right to do so; if you didn't do wicked things, he wouldn't be able to hurt you. You know the stories, how if you don't do something, you will be punished."
"Like if naughty kids don't go to bed on time, the boogie man will come. It's the same thing; he is a being of wrath. Meaning he can only hurt those deserving of wrath, it's his job now." The old man's bodiless voice said.
I took a step forward, making more glass shatter as he panicked and scooted back faster. "SOMEONE HELP ME! GOD SAVE ME!" He screamed, but no one was coming, and god wasn't on his side as I grabbed his leg and he tried to kick me, only for his foot to go through me. I found out, while playing with the woman, that humans can't touch me. But I can feel them.
Swinging him up into the air before slamming him face-first into the road, a loud cracking sound happened. Echoing through the woods before I did it again, this time slamming him on his back as his head bounced off the pavement and burst like a watermelon, before I tossed his body back against the truck, looked down the road, and saw a sign for my city. The van was heading that way.
Licking my lips as I remembered that woman in the passenger front seat of the van, someone needs to die. My form started to vanish as the old man watched me fly away. "Wonderful job, Mister Willford. I see a bright future for you." He mumbled to himself before sinking into darkness.
