×Chapter 9×
×Rage×
Adam looked down at the ground, thinking. He thought of Rachel and John, he thought deeply and something horrific occurred to him. The color drained from his burned face and his limbs went weak and hung limply at his sides.
“Just tell me one thing,” Adam mumbled, forcing the armed men to listen if they wanted to hear, “What have you done with Rachel?”
The leader of the group remained standing, and a smirk of the vilest origins appeared on his face, “Oh, you mean the girl that we killed earlier today?”
Adam’s ears perked up, he sighed, “You…did…WHAT!?”
The group’s leader stood steadfast, smiling gleefully as he toyed with Adam’s emotions. Adam, however, was fighting himself and he realized two things.
Adam whispered under his breath, “I love Rachel,” then his voice trailed off and he continued by shouting his next words, “and you killed her!?”
The man laughed happily, enjoying Adam’s anguish as only someone truly demented could, and then he flinched as his feet left the sandy ground beneath him. Adam had appeared right in front of him and clutched the man by the throat, lifting him off the ground with a single hand, his eyes were a fiery blue; Adam was clearly no longer just Adam.
The man gasped for air as Adam choked him with his bare hands, his cohorts stood motionless, stunned by what they were seeing. A demonic grin spread across Adam’s face as he drew his fist backward and flung it forward to punch a hole right through the man’s chest. He threw the carcass to the ground and crushed the skull as he advanced forward towards the other men. The whole lot of them stood utterly still, like a bunch of livestock oblivious to their imminent slaughter. Adam rushed forward with inhuman speed and decapitated a man with his dagger in one meaty cleave. Most of the remaining men were roused out of their shock and began to run as fast as they could. Adam was faster.
