Chapter 10: Terror
Can one handle the truth if they hate their own existence?
----------- **** -----------
He felt himself falling, the darkness giving way to metal walls, flooring and ceiling. Yellow lights that were dimmed lined in the middle of the ceiling, leading away from Tail’s position as he flipped himself upright and landed without a sound upon the flooring. Straightening up he took in his surroundings, walking foreword a few steps he then froze as he heard footsteps coming his way. Looking around desperately he realised he could not hide and panicked knowing he would be caught and beaten for his trespass.
Glancing every way he could he took off down the hall nothing thinking through his actions and froze once again as the footsteps sounded closer not farther away. A cry of despair escaped him as he took a step back, but all slowed down to him as a human turned the corner his hands behind his back as he walked a contemplating look upon his face.
Fear was showing plainly upon Tail’s face as the human stopped for a split second his brow furrowing, then with a faster walk heading right in the direction that Tail’s was standing. Taking a step backwards he half raised his hand to protect himself when the strangest thing happened…
…the kitsune went straight through the human as though he did not exist. Panting frozen he tried to get his head around this illogical situation he had found himself in, turning slowly he took in the back of the human that was pulling away from him. Frowning his heart still beating beyond his control at the near miss a few seconds ago he decided to follow the other to find out where he was and what was going on.
The human was mumbling to themselves as they kept a leisurely pace along the metal hallway, keeping up with the quick strides Tail’s and the other soon came upon a set of metal doors that stretched from ceiling to floor. Gaping in astonishment as his tail flicked left and right in amazement, he did not notice the human get ever closer to the doors, until a deep but tenured voice came from the other braking off his fascinated gaze.
His eyes snapped to the human as the other replied, but the words were strangely muffled, blinking in worry he followed after the other, not wanting to be left behind in this strange place that he somehow recognised though had never seen before. Moving through the doors he was shocked to see that they had come out in what looked like a command centre, massive computers were set up against all the walls, while a console base was in the middle of the floor, giving enough room for several people to not only walk around comfortably but also not bump into each other, so was the size of the room.
Moving in Tail’s looked upwards and his eyes went even wider, he could not see the ceiling, it was too far for even his eyes to pick out. Ears went back as he shivered at the feeling of infinity with no ceiling to ground himself.
“What is the progress of the Project?” Tail’s turned his attention to the conversation that was going on his curiosity peaked, moving closer to the human who was sitting in the largest chair of all he was surprised to see a mechanical being in front of the man.
“Project 25879 was placed into the Chemical Formulae X-54 at 21:00 hours yesterday, changes have been recorded as you requested Dr.” The mechanical voice was without any sort of emotion as it held out a hand and a small but round disk ejected from it’s palm. Passing it to the human who held it carefully in gloved white hands as the Mechanical being settled back on its wheels.
“What of our esteemed donor? Has she begun to suspect yet?” Tail’s felt his curiosity get the better of him as he slowly got closer and closer.
“Negative. Female Mobian Darlia Prower is focused upon Project 25879.” The kitsune had gotten far enough foreword that he was able to see the humans face, then his fur stood on end as he was able to see the cold sneer upon the humans face. Then the words running through is mind made him freeze in shock at the name he had heard.
“When she begins to ask questions or the Project gets to its final stages…” The humans eyes were covered by those blue goggles but even he could feel the coldness that radiated out of them.
“…dispose of her.” Tail’s shook as he took a step back, ears limp in the revelation he had found out and this above all thrust the questions about where he was, what he was doing here and why everything had a grey tinge to them as though they were not real. But all of it drained away with the words of his mother Darlia Prower.
“Acknowledged Dr.” He began to look around for a way out, something inside telling him he could not go out the same way he came in, finding another door that was almost hidden by the computers on the other side; he then made his way towards it wanting out and away.
“Hahaha, no-one will stand in my way. Those fools will curse my name when I rip their very live apart. They will cry in terror and horror as I dominate over them all as my empire controls them all. None have any idea what I have in store for them, the forgotten legends shall be their destruction! Hahaha!” The door closed behind him, cutting off what he was beginning to think as a madman who had lost all sense. Shivering he patted down his fur, Tail’s slowly walked down the dark hallway with all but the safety lights turned off.
“Hush, child. The darkness will rise from the deep and carry you down into sleep...” His ears twitched and he went still, the words came to him from a distance.
“Child, the darkness will rise from the deep and carry you down into sleep...” Looking around for the singing voice he soon heard more words float down the hall way towards him and he walked in that direct, the voice calming him and soothing his rattled nerves.
“Guileless son, I'll shape your belief and you'll always know that your father's a thief…” The voice was closer, he moved a little quicker wanting to know who was singing.
“You won't understand the cause of your grief but you'll always follow the voices beneath you…” The song was now beginning to give him chills as the familiarity nagged at him. For when he felt the most alone, he hummed the tune to this exact song.
“Your spirit will hate her, the flower who married my brother the traitor and you will expose his puppet behavior for you are the proof of how he betrayed her…” He came to an intersection and looked franticly left and right, trying to choose the right path. Then growling in agitation, he spun up his tails and sped down the right hand hallway, his instincts guiding him.
“Each day you grow older, each moment I'm watching my vengeance unfold, for the child of my body, the flesh of my soul will die in returning the birthright he stole…” He landed in front of an open doorway and moved to look inside, there standing beside a glass tube of some red liquid that glowed was a female fox, her fur was a light orange almost yellow colour, her chest and muzzle was a dark grey and lastly her eyes were purple as she stared at something inside the tube a hand stroking the glass.
“Loyalty only to me.” Those words sounded so final as they were whispered, moving into the room Tail’s got closer and closer to the female fox who then smirked coldness penetrating her eyes chasing the warmth away as she snickered, the long bags that hung over her eyes and muzzle swaying with her shaking form.
Tail’s took a step back in fright at this and watched her warily as she straightened a mad look in her eyes. She then spread her hand across the glass as she chuckled sharp fangs glinting in the low lights.
“Yes you shall be my vengeance, I know that human expects to double-cross me but enough time has passed for the changes to implement themselves. You may grow to be a perfect little kit, always helpful that will never do anything wrong. For that is the way I have set your emotions, but when the time comes your true power will be released, for with high levels of emotion and Chaos Power you will unlock the levels of your power. For you my little sacrifice will be the Harbinger of Destruction, your darker side will make sure of this. As you gain in strength you darker side will gain more control until nothing is left but a creature that wants nothing more than to destroy everything.” Tail’s eyes were widest they could go as the female looked up from the tank to where he stood her eyes locked onto him.
“For you are my vengeance against my brother and his family who tossed me aside when they were done with me. Your very blood will hunger for destruction, you will kill, you will destroy and enjoy it. For you Miles Prower are a being of Supreme Destruction, Created from the ancient genes of the most powerful Kitsune that ever lived, my own DNA and the science of Dr Robotnik, you will tear apart their very existence as they see one of the most reared creatures the Kitsune destroy their world and everyone in it.” Then she began to laugh her head thrown back, Tail’s was breathing far too quick as the information processed, stumbling foreword he leaned against the glass tube eyes sightlessly staring into the red liquid. Then he saw movement and turned his attention to what was inside.
He froze completely as he stared, his whole body shook as he tried to process but kept on faltering, for inside the glass was a tiny body all curled up. The same colour fur as himself, same tail’s with one difference. Two feathered wings lay limp against the young ones back, a whimper came from his throat as he stared at the tiny kit who looked lifeless in the red liquid.
“Darlia Prower the Dr requires you within the communicative centre.” His metal thoughts crashed as he turned to look at the female fox, he shrank as he saw the snarl upon her face as she strode towards the door.
“What now? Hasn’t that human got enough to do without bothering me? Bloody creatures should never…” Her voice faded as she followed after the robot that had delivered the message. Turning his head forewords once again he stopped dead, his own blue eyes met the ones of the being inside the glass tube and his mind fractured.
‘Samethesamehowcancan’tbenoIwon’thowisIwon’tohgodohgodohgodohgodohgod…’ He screamed, loud and piecing as he collapsed, everything shattered around him and the placed he had been was now gone. Leaving him in darkness as he rocked, arms clasped around his knees, eyes staring straight ahead, mind blank.
Two arms then came and slid them under his back and knees, lifting him up the unknown being placed Tail’s upon his lap as he forced the others mental self to fall into a deep sleep. Tail’s relaxed as he slept, the other slowly moved his finders through the fur on Tail’s head a he rocked slowly back and forth. A frown was on the unknown figures muzzle as dark red eyes almost black looked sadly upon the child who had been tormented for too much. He was saddened as he looked up into the darkness.
‘If you could not cope with that young Tail’s how will you deal with the even darker aspects of your origin? I hope you can be strong enough for the future because you are going to need it.’
----------- **** -----------
End Chapter 10
Uh… I keep wondering what other hell I will put Tail’s through before he will go crazy, I mean ho far can someone be pushed with everything piling on top of each other? I promise the next chapter will ease up a little before everything goes to hell once more.
