Nicholas Dante
(2) / Nicholas had a very short and loveless childhood, after being abandoned in a small ruined town with 3 days left for his birthday, because for his parents he was just another burden to them. Nicholas in fear, despair, dread and panic, he walks among the remains of broken houses and abandoned houses with very dark black and red stains on the walls and the floor, a darkness was taking over the interior of the houses and closed alleys, there seemed to be no sign of life in that place only of death and loneliness, Nicholas continued to walk in the small and deserted streets, until night falls and the darkness that filled the void of the abandoned and destroyed houses now surrounded him, making him unable to see his own feet, he hears in the background a noise that seemed to be heavy and deep steps and a small laugh that makes him run in a totally unknown direction until he hits a wall and enters the house, the day dawns the boy with fear and panic ended up not sleeping at night. Nicholas while hiding in the same house that spent the night hears the sounds of wood breaking and soon after an unrecognizable scream that is interrupted, he for wanting to know if he could be close to that noise tries to look through a hole in the wall but cannot see anything and a house in front of it that was totally dark on the inside until it seemed to have a black mass inside it that was as dark as a black hole. It doesn't take long for him to be hungry and thirsty, although he knows he has to look for food and water, he remains hidden in the corner of the living room, writhing with hunger and thirst. The day goes by, night falls and Nicholas is hopeless, just sitting on the floor in the same position for hours until the day comes ... his birthday ... a day that was never special for anyone, not even for him ..the boy, close to death, closes his eyes and finally relaxes his body and sleeps ... a sleep that would be eternal if it weren't for a tall man in a reddish outfit with a familiar but unrecognizable mask entering the house that Nicholas was in, the man noticing the boy's body, walks calmly but with deep steps towards him with a suitcase, from there he picks up knives and surgical tools and without losing time begins to mutilate Nicholas, still conscious he begins to scream in pain but his voice comes out totally broken and his throat hurts from trying so hard, after 8 min of torture and mutilation without breaks, the boy comes to take his last breath with the end of your suffering. Days later the body moves and he resurrects in his body totally cold and greenish due to the moldy and infested environment, he looks around but without remembering anything, without remembering what happened and without remembering where he was ... neither he remembered who he was, starts to panic and runs away until he arrives in a smaller city than the previous one and looks for help but everyone in that city refuses out of fear or prejudice and calls him a monster, freak, demon, filthy creature , among others and totally terrified they start attacking Nicholas to ward off that "monster". After months of attacks, Nicholas is becoming more and more closed. A year and a half has passed and Nicholas refuses to eat the flesh of humans since he knows that this can make him the monster that everyone calls him, he keeps himself from attacking them but that same afternoon while he wandered through a park in the middle of the forest .... there would be an unsuspecting man walking calmly on the trail, until Nicholas saw the man and automatically unable to control himself, the man only takes one bite in his throat that kills him painfully, Nicholas eats enough meat from the corpse to quench his hunger but he wanted to vomit at the same time but could not and despite the meat satiate his hunger he was so disgusted and afraid of what he did since he became the monster everyone was talking about and from that day he avoids the human flesh, through disgust and fear. 6 months pass, Nicholas with his hunger rising, walks among the trees of the forest, trying to avoid seeing any human. Night is already falling on the forest and Nicholas decides to rest, he sits leaning against a tree that had a stain, he observes it and realizes that it is the blood stain of the man he killed there, after that he is shaking with disgust and empties his mind to see if he could sleep or just rest ... until .... he hears and feels a person approaching, although his steps are very smooth and with him bringing a gentle wind, Nicholas gets up calmly and walks in the opposite direction to not see the person but they say: - So, you are the monster that roams the trees that people talk about in the city? Nicholas, without answering, continues walking. And the stranger speaks again in a more outgoing but sarcastic tone: - Looks like you haven't eaten in years, what? don't you like human flesh? but it looks so tasty ..... Nicholas remains silent but stops walking, stranger continues: - Look, I can help you, give you not much but I can give you food and a home that you will be safe ..... as long as you help me. Nicholas silently realizes that this stranger is right and that it could be a very good opportunity but does not know the price he has to pay for what seems like a distant "dream", so he asks: - What will I have to help you with? Stranger calmly and simply lets out a simple, short laugh: - No big deal, you'll know when we're home. Nicholas thinks and realizes that there are not many ways out due to his conditions, he sees no better alternative than accepting the proposal, so he simply replies: -Okay but since I knew who you are. The stranger laughs a little: -Okay, my name is Drace ... Drace Villabolos, I'm just a demon, now we go to your new home. Drace goes over to Nicholas and takes his shoulder and uses a teleportation power. [15:37] Arriving at the entrance to an apartment, scared Nicholas, since he had never seen such a power, enters Drace's apartment which is not very big but enough to serve as a home for them, after looking at the house for a while and looking at some pictures in the corridor, hears a noise coming from one of the rooms that had the door closed and looks at Drace who was in the next room and asks: - Drace, what was that? Drace, not knowing what the question was about, just looks at Nicholas. he without receiving an answer, asks another question: - Is there anyone else here? Drace now understanding what it was all about, just calls Eve, a girl who was saved by him 1 year before Nicholas. Nicholas, not knowing who she was, looks at Drace with a doubtful look. Drace just says: -Nicholas, this is Eve, I saved her about a year ago, then. Eve a little embarrassed: -h .. hi, welcome ... Nicholas with a doubtful look: -Thanks ... EveA week goes by, and Nicholas has not yet gotten used to it or trusts them both, he even thinks about killing Drace so he can be at peace in the apartment, but he knows that he still doesn't have the confidence to do it easily so he decides to wait a few more weeks . Two weeks pass and Nicholas begins to realize that he has gained some of Drace's trust and that Eve treated him like a brother and enjoyed his presence, the same night during dinner, watch the two and see how happy they are with each other. another and during the conversation, he sees how he is already part of them, despite not knowing how to express his feelings or emotions for having lost them when he died in that cold, broken, humid and death-filled house, at that time at the table with the two he felt alive for an instant, he decides instead of killing them, he would help them.
