My Perfect World

Chapter 5: 8 Years Gone By



Back at their fight, the Cold Hearted was fuming in rage. "That fucking guy! Just who does he think he is?" She shouted in anger, riding on a wave of ice, chasing after J. "I need to find out where he is! There was some kind of weird black flame earlier, but its gone now!" She wrongly assumed that the blsck flame belonged to the arsonist. Fortunately, just when she was about to give up and leave, she found the lasers & flames. They were so bright that they illuminated the entire forest. She began to travel on a giant mound of snow at intense speeds to get there, but along the way, noticed something strange. 'What? There's a girl right there', she thought. Unbenownst to her, that girl was the one that fought J earlier, having turned into a giant monster. "You bastard!" The girl shouts.

"Whatever, I'll just run through her & kill her. She's probably just a ghost anyway!", said the cold hearted. As she did though, the girl raised her fist, noticeable claws being seen on it, she hit the giant wall of snow.

To the cold hearted's shock, the snow was completely destroyed at that instant. To her, this girl came out of nowhere, and she had incredible strength.

"Who are you!?", the cold hearted screamed.

"I used to have a name, but now they just call me the Wild Animal!"

The Wild Animal? Does that mean she's a Chaotic Demon? No. Even some Celestial Angels have names like that.

"Get outta my way, I gotta kill that man in the distance." The cold hearted says, trying to intimidate her way through

"You tried to kill me! Do you think i'll listen to you!" The wild animal says, matter-of-factly.

"Damn it!" The cold hearted definitely thought this was more trouble than it was worth. She knew they were going to have to fight. With this level of strength, she wasn't confident she could win, but she decided to just put the fight on hold.

"Hey, let's not fight, ok?" I have somewhere I need to be. We can kill each other soon."

To that extent, the Wild Animal ran at abnormal speeds, ripping through trees. In a split second, the Cold Hearted put up giant barriers of ice.

She generated a hailstorm, the waves knocking the wild animal away. Back and forth, in the waves of hail, the Wild Animal managed to get bruises from how harsh the hail was.

"ICE SPEAR!" The cold hearted screamed, sending a giant spear of ice into the Wild Animal, only to stare on in shock as the Wild Animal not only tanked the spear with no problem, but was able to pick up the spear that was bigger than a mountain.

In response, the Wild Animal crushed the giant spear on the ground, causing a mini earthquake. In response, the cold hearted generated a field of snow to restrict herself from losing balance of the giant maelstorm of destruction. As the earth crumbled, the cold hearted felt a pang of fear in her heart, something she had only felt once before, when fighting a very powerful enemy.

"YOU BASTARD!" The Cold Hearted screamed as the Wild Animal ran and punched directly through her blockade of ice, managing to hit her directly

She tried to talk, but the punch knocked the wind out of her, so all she could do in desperation, was to hatch a plan.

She waited until the Wild Animal was able to strike her again, and froze her inside of a block of ice

Regaining her voice, she said "You are strong. I'd love to kill you, but right now I've got bigger fish to fry. I know you'll use your insane strength to break through this block of ice in no time, so this shouldn't count as a victory for me. It's more of a stalling tactic so I can kill that guy."

Instantly, the ice starts to crack, making fissions around the entire forest. In response to that, the Cold Hearted instantly jumps back. "You'll escape soon! I better leave before you break through it fully!" She said, fear rushing to her heart.

She started to travel towards the giant mass of fire & lasers once again. In no time at all, she arrived, but something was different. There were only 2 of her allies. 'What happened to the Puppetmaster?' She thought. Looking over, she noticed that the girl, who usually smelled like garbage was knocked unconscious.

"WHAT!?" She looked over at J, confused. 'No way!' She thought, 'He beat a Chaotic Demon in a 3v1? How the fuck is this possible!? I didn't think he was that strong! What an idiot, though! He should've killed her'

She also noticed one other thing. 'Wait, that guy they're fighting'...

'He looks familiar...'

"But where? Where have I seen him before?" She mumbled out loud, before trying to join the battle. "That's it!"

She now recognized him in full force 'He's that kid! What the hell happened to him! He's like 8 years older, and he looks like a monster!'

To her, in that moment, she thought 'That kid truly grew up to be a scary existence!'

8 Years Earlier:

"This kid! How is he doing so good?" The arbiters of the chess game were shocked. They hadn't seen a talent like that in years. A 12 Year Old, able to beat people in the game of chess with ease. The entire organization was shocked. His moves, they were close to perfection. A true genius. Every move was perfect. His tactical reasoning, experience and opening tactics were nearly perfect. "Who the heck is he?" One of the people at the event asked, desperate to recruit this talent to his organization. "He says his name is J, but we've looked his full name in the database. You won't believe who he really is!" After saying the boys' full name, the arbiter looks on in shock. "That kid! He beat a 1600 rated player just now. How was he able to do that?"

The boy, hailed as a genius, could only think to himself.

'You don't understand anything. This type of stuff is easy for someone like me.

Among the people looking at the games was the Cold Hearted! She looked on, watching the kid beat player after player, most of which were adults. "What kind of information do you have on him?"

"Yes. We have his real name."

After the guy she was talking to gave his name, the Cold Hearted looked on in shock! That's his name? No wonder he's so amazing!"

"Yes. Not only that, but we found out that he's developed abilities recently. Not only are they incredibly powerful, but the boy has no qualms doing what he wants. He'll certainly be publically labelled as a Chaotic Demon soon. Judging from his personality, he won't take this lying down."

The Cold Hearted looked across the room, directly staring at the boy with cold bloodlust, and deathly intent.

'WHAT!?' She thinks in her mind, after seeing the boy look her directly. Not a single trace of fear in his eyes. In fact, this 12 year old child had the disposition of that of an old man, one that had lived for a long time & learned many lessons. The boy was unafraid of death itself. She felt that if death was staring him directly in the eyes, he wouldn't feel any fear in the slightest.

"What else do you know about him?" She asks, further boosting her suspicion. "It seems he only became a genius at Age 5. From ages 1 to 4, he never had any inclination towards his intelligence. It was almost like he was a normal kid. Then, one day, almost like a switch was flipped, the boy became a literal genius, able to beat people far older than him in tactical challenges. Even moreso, he could cook, earn money, and even drive by age 5. We are certain that he's one of them. Children of his age aren't normally capable of extreme malice or ruthlessness."

She thought for a long minute. "This boy will certainly do something heinous someday, and when that day comes, he will be known throughout the entire world."

At that moment, she made the finite decision. She planned to murder the boy, and kill everyone else he came into contact with, ending the boys' legacy right then and there.

8 Years Later (Current Day)

I saw the 3 Chaotic Demons surrounding both me & Kyle. I look at the Cold Hearted. She definitely recognizes me now. Fear shoots through her heart like a rocket. Now she'll take me seriously. She might even kill me right here and now.

As I look at her, a small grin, almost unnoticeable to the human eye, fills my face. 'She'll try', I think, with my grin become larger & wider, with no end in sight.

"You didn't say we'd be fighting him! I didn't know he was the freedom junkie. If I had, I'd just stay home!" The cold hearted shouted over to the arsonist.

In return, the Arsonist laughs. "Well, that's why I didn't tell you! You remember our deal? You owe me!"

"I don't owe you shit, you piece of shit! I only joined because I thought it'd be fun! Look, you're fighting him 3 on 1, and he still defeated one of you, and I wasn't even here to see it. Even more, there's a monster that'll be here any second! She's probably already escaped my block of ice by now. She's probably that boy's... no. That psycho's ally. We really shouldn't be here. It's not smart. If you want to die, you can do it yourselves. I'm getting out of here!" She shouts out, clearly perturbed by my existence. "He's been going easy on you! The second he saw you, your fate was sealed. It doesn't matter who you are, or what you try. He's probably already got a strategy to defeat you. He's just toying with you."

This is my cue! They're distracted arguing each other!

In that very instance, I teleport inside of the laser guy's arms, ripping them off. "No arms, no lasers!" I shout, with a cocky, arrogant smile! The laser guy screams a horrid scream filled with anguish and horror, knowing that he'll be powerless for the rest of his life.

"Damn it!" The arsonist screams!

"Listen up!" I shout.

In the throes of battle, I exquisitely assemble a formation of words that shocks them all. The person i'm really aiming this sentence at is Kyle, but the other 2 hear as well.

"You all, Chaotic Demons, Celestial Angels! You don't know anything! True freedom is being uninhibited. People who live behind a porcelain armor! People who only feel true freedom from the flame of power! People who fear their enemies! People trapped by pointless morals and experiences! Not able to do anything they ever wanted!"

"None of you have grasped true freedom! True Freedom is to be able to walk anywhere. To do anything, with no regret or hesitation, to cast aside fear, to fight through impossible odds! To fight through trials and tribulations, and to ride the wave of excitement! That is true freedom!

Freedom is power!"

"To escape from the constraints of authority, and to go beyond any law! That is the truth of this reality!"

In the waves of battle, I become drunk on the excitement and adrenaline, and let loose a bit more of my real personality. Kyle! Don't you see!

I want you to see! I want you to see the true me! Isn't it amazing! To cast aside everything for true freedom! True risk!

As I stare at Kyle, his eyes grow wide with wonder! They shine with inspiration and light! He truly believes in me!

"DON'T FORGET! YOU CAN'T EVEN DAMAGE ME!" The arsonist screams with anger. Idiot! Do you really think i'd fight you if I didn't think I could win? "Bring it on!" As the Arsonist and the Cold Hearted both strike me at the same time, the burning flame and cold ice combine.

The fire melts the ice to nothing but water, and then it evaporates to nothingness. Teleporting away, I masterfully & beautifully coerce them. I teleport right in front of the Cold Hearted. "You psycho!" She screams, sending a giant wave of ice towards me.

"Heh!" I laugh, exactly as planned. I was right in front of the arsonist! So all I have to do is teleport! Just as planned! Their attacks strike each other! The Cold Hearted is nearly burned to a crisp while the ice has melted to nothing to water!

Immediately, at the reaction of seeing the high pressure of the ice, now water, shooting out in a giant geyser of melting hot water. Immediately, I teleport to the Arsonist, and throw him directly into the line of water!

"What the hell are you doing!" He screams as the high pressured water hits him directly!

"You pathetic existence! What beats fire?" I laugh as I watch him directly hit the geysering water!

At that instance, the geysering water desintegrates his entire body! He melts into nothing but a few small embers, his entire body being completely eliminated by the high water pressure! "You worthless ingrate! Freedom Junkie!" He shouts, "This won't kill me! Like a fire, I'll be ignited again! Just watch!

I WILL... KILL YOU!" He screams as the embers slowly blow away.

Smiling, I recite my own words. "I know. You can't truly die unless all of your embers are eliminated. Soon, you will reform using the small amount of embers you have left, and will try to kill me. When that day comes, I'll be more than happy to defeat you once again!"

Meanwhile...

Back at the slums: The Perfect Human's Hideout

"Hey, will it be safe letting your daughter travel with the Freedom Junkie? Isn't she your ultimate weapon?" A man asks the Perfect Human

The perfect human smiles. "Yes. She is. But... How do I explain it? I know the Freedom Junkie is also a tool as well. All of the Celestial Angels & Chaotic Demon's are tools for the real monsters behind the scenes. I just wonder if he knows that."

The henchman asking him still looks at him, seemingly confused. "I don't get it."

In response, the perfect human says with a smile. "What I mean, is that he's a Chaotic Demon. Of course she'll risk death!"

"But that's the only way she can activate her powers. The amazing power of speed, a power specifically designed to kill the Freedom Junkie and other Chaotic Demons and Celestial Angels. A speed even faster than super speed, in order for that to happen, she must risk death!"

He smiles with a sinister shadow crawling from behind him. "Plus, even if she dies, I have the material to recreate her. I know where she is at all times. I've installed a tracking device inside of her, so I know where she is at all times."

To that, the other man asking the questions stops. "Wait? Recreate her? So you're saying she's some kind of cyborg or something? Isn't that playing god?"

In response, the perfect human only smiles.

"Which one?" The man instantly goes silent. "Huh?"

"Never mind. Just sit and watch. The real war is about to begin, and it has nothing to do with the Freedom Junkie. That man is going to be one of the greatest tools of the monsters that will do battle in this world!"
