The looming death Prologue

""Hey Mom i am home\

A kid with black hair and skinny body says as he enters his house.

""Wash your hands first Arsh\

The sound of his mom comes from the kitchen. He sits on the table with his mother

and a curious expression appears on his face.

""Mom why we live so far away from the main city\

The women ponders a bit then answered

""Its quite and peaceful in here \

""But first why don you tell me about the black eye you got there , you got into fight again ?\

The boy sudders and answers in a low tone.

""It was his fault he called me an orphan\

The mother went silent and it was quite for some time.

The boy asked her mother in a low voice.

""Why we don follow any gods ? Mom the villagers says every person is born for the purpose of praying to the gods\

His mother face turns expressionless and she says in a baritone.

""There is no benevolent beings in the world. You are curious as to why we don pray to gods it is because they abandoned us long ago. They are not what you heard from other people and i don want you to know how they really are\

After some time of silence his mother says

""You asked why we live in the most far away wasteland its because we are forsaken and being hunted by the churches of those filthy creatures\

""Promise me arsh you will never leave this village\

The kid stays silent for a bit then lift his head up to say

""I promise if you promise me to tell everything about it\

A pained expression appears on his mother face as she says with a sigh.

""Ok I promise i will tell you everything\

But the promise was never meant to be kept.

....................

"Hey mom i am going to get the firewood\

Arsh says as he leaves the house behind.

"Why the other villagers pray to gods if we are forsaken , why was we forsaken anyway is mythical beings even exist?\

Arsh ask himself all the questions on top of his head but never be able to get a hint of the answer.

He sighs and due to his weak physique he is only capable of taking a days worth of wood with him .

As he walks back home still curious about what his mother is about to tell him .

He sees a number of villagers walking toward his house . Panicked he start to run for his house when he reached there out of breath, he saw the most grotesque sight the human can ever hope to see.

Blood and body parts all over the house but after he turns to the living room his heart nearly stopped beating and all the force left his body.

""m....mo...m\

He saw five people with different embelem on thier clothes is sitting there with her moms body with her head decapitated.

""You are late to the party kid\

One of the man says with smile on his face and his mothers head beneath his leg.

""Arlo we are here for a purpose not for your entertainment\

The kid broke down on the floor with sobs and tears . His mind went blank and his body was powerless and every bit of light leaving his eyes.

"" Hey cutie you should stop the crying its annoying and you are the reason we have to kill our old comrade--

THE CURSED CHILD OF THE UNKNOWN\

Arsh was in the deepest pit of despair he doesn care who they were ,why they were, he just wanted his mom back .

A wind of black fog start blowing with very high speed around them every villager is attacking the intruders in the matter of seconds .

One of them Screams--

""Save Samanthas kid \

One of the villager picks arsh up and starts running towards the highest peak of the mountain while every bit of chaos leaping everywhere around him .

He start shouting at the kid --

""Hey KID you are alive right??!?\

But he got no response from the kid he knew the kid was alive as he was breathing but his eyes were hollow and seemed to lost every meaning of life.

The man shouted while grabbing the kids collar.

""I don give two **s about your mopping, samantha died for you over and over again and you are going to let her sacrifice in vain. While her killers will roam free in the world you will be waiting for your death to come .\

The man went quite and starts running again and then says in a low voice.

""Did you ever loved her you cursed kid\

....................

The man ran frantically to the peak of the mountain where a beautiful building was situated panting he left the kid near the entrance and start giving him instructions.

""What i am going to tell you may sounds like bull** but there is still a way to save your mom and the villagers. You have to pray to god inside of the temple, he is not benevolent but you have to make him help us at any cost now Go quickly before its too late\

The man threw the kid inside the temple and left to go back to the village or whatever is left of it.

Arsh was silent his eyes had no lights in it just a faint glimmer of hope for his mother to be saved again he walked in the corrider to the centre of the room . He started pleading with his lifeless eyes -

""Please save my mother you can take whatever you want from me i don care if you are benevolent or not just please save my mother please\

He pleaded until his legs gave out even then he didn stopped pleading, the light around him started to dim he knew what this feeling was - he was nearing his death.

Then he heard the voice which seems to come from all directions and seemed so close at the same time very far away.

""Death is eternal i even the death god can go against the order of the nature \

Arsh stared in darkness for a moment

Then he started shouting with every fiber of his being.

""What the hell you mean you can save my mother you are gods ,you created this world we pray to you, you are the myths that created this world there is nothing impossible for you\

The voice remained quite for a bit and then said again in the baritone.

""Let me rephrase it then - I won help you whatever you are ready to sacrifice i don need it so go back and live your life back in the mountains ,away from the eyes of the other god\

Arsh went silent and then said in a hollow voice-

""That man and mom was right. Gods are not benevolent and the crest carved on the clothes of those men was of the church . Now i am thinking straight , i guess i was asking for help from my mothers killer\

He took a deep breath and said in the seething rage.

""I will kill every single one of you. You are playing gods while you are no different from a demon , i don care what anyone gonna do , i am going to live and butcher every single one of you in the most grotesque way possible\

""I swear that on my mothers name Samantha. Ill kill the death itself if it means i can revive my mother . Just wait and see, any being in the universe will not be able to stop me.\

The dark voice said in monotone voice

""Death is eternal \

""Beginning is the start of the end\

As the dark voice faded the whole temple started rumbling then with a explosion arsh got thrown away from mountain to the river around the mountain.

Now his eyes was not hollow; it contained meaning,rage and coldness. As he drifted in the cold river he said in a low voice.

""I s..w..ear i a...m gonna Kill ev...ery sin....gle one of the...m.\
