sorry for not being active recently. tumbrl pushed me away with labeling thing but here i am now. with a short novel-like something (first time making my writing public so sorry if it's bad)

the story is out now on my Wattpad!

His fate was already decided one day after he was born.

He never saw his real parents. Nor he even knew what they look like. The ones that the fate gave, weren't real humans.

A pair of creepy Omnics, that did not look like the ones he saw on the streets. Their eye sockets were really big and deep. The eyes on the other hand were smaller, white and had holes inside to emulate pupils, giving them a weird look, especially at night.

Their faces were way more carved and less refined. Jaw bones were curved unnaturally, and metallic teeth were sticking out of the mechanical mouths, almost like someone tried to stick badly made dentures into molten skulls with wires and titanium.

Both of them didn't even had names. Their documents were missing, but they were treated like higher chierarchy. Now that they had a human child, the status 'was off the charts'. The kid clearly was important to some degree.

The parents never thought of a name for him, as he wasn't prioritized over their... jobs? Who knows what they were doing anyway. It's important however that they were linked to that strange organization.

Hashimoto.

Yet it wasn't known as Hashimoto back then. It was formerly known as Owari. It's little to known as to what this organization was doing, but few theories of, presumably former member candidates, state that it was a hitman hiring organization. A very popular one among the internet sites. At least that's what theory enthusiasts on independent forums like to say.

It was a huge deal for Japan at the time, as Owari was a big chunk of the economy there. Countless links to the goverment and military was enough for conspiracies to circle around. It was mentioned by many that Owari had something to do with outside groups in different countries, specifically one located in Egypt, with others stating that the connection was way bigger than anyone thought.

The kid's appearance in Omnics' house was a bit of a changer. Due to the more sensitive nature of human body in early stages of life, most vintage furniture had to go through some changes to adapt the surrounding, and make the house more safe. Things like tables, chairs, counters and doors had to get corners covered as they were too sharp for a human child.

The accidents were happening nonetheless.

He was fascinated with this huge house. Most places he's been in had some kind of technological advancements to it, or clean aesthetic. This house was less edvanced, leaning more into an architecture a'la 90s.

The kid would often hide in different rooms or floors. The two Omnics at first thought that it was a hide n' seek game. But school teachers and therapists suggested that he was scared of them, as he would stay in school after hours, curled up in library.

A decision was made. The Omnic duo would let the kid stay hidden until he would start talking in full sentences (since in younger years he was barely saying singular words). This would happen at the end of elementary school, when he said his first full sentence: 'Who am i?'

With this question, the Omnics told him, that he was a human, and they were his guardians. They never said that they were his parents, nor they even wanted to admit it to anyone else.

There was a reason for the kid to be afraid of these guardians. Aside from their, uncanny to a certain degree, looks and scary voices, there was few other things that set them apart from regular Omnics. The most important being the fact that they were moving a lot less smoother than the regular ones. Their movements were too robot-like. They would often stick their arms out on their chest level like old animatronics in, long defunct, restaurants and would walk at night inside the house. One of them would also sometimes walk into the kid's bedroom and stay there for the rest of the night, as there was some kind of a charging station.

That station resembled a huge cylinder-shaped fishtank with a lot of cables going across the floor, which caused the kid to trip multiple times. Inside the station was some sort of a liquid that emanated with blue light.

One night the kid walked towards the station to see how the guardian looks like when it's inside. The guardian looked relatively the same, aside from it's skeletal body structure having a blue tint. At that moment something went wrong with the charging system and it caused a serious malfunction. The guardian inside suddenly convolute as if it was being electrocuted, and broke the glass of charging station which disoriented the kid for a moment. The guardian stood up towering over the kid and flickered violently with a waterfall of sparks that caused a fire. The kid gathered himself to escape but the Omnic in convulsions sprinted towards the bedroom door. However because of it's unnatural height it smacked it's head on the wall above the door, and step back landing on the floor near the kid.

Omnic's face looked worse now. The eye sockets has melt into the white eyeballs and teeth. With each every electronic scream, the strings of molten metal and plastic would stretch a bit along with the jaw movements. The Omnic was crawling towards the kid who was already screaming the whole time, but when the guardian finally gave up and fell to the ground, the kid ran away from his bedroom and used an emergency button on the second charging station to wake the second guardian.

First guardian was gone. It's remainings have been delivered to a scrap yard in Australian Omnium.

The incident didn't affect the first guardian much. It was just a robot that looked just like it.

The kid however changed. Completely.

He developed a habit. He would bite into his left arm as hard as he could when on the verge of hysteria. The habit got so bad, to the point where the guardian would take him to hospital. The staff there got really suspicious as the kid was more fearful of the robot than before. The nurses would speculate that he was abused. The kid wouldn't say a word so they thought of calling the police.

The guardian discharged him upon request from the hospital, and would stitch the kid's arm manually. But due to it's old-school robotic nature of movements, the stitches were all over the place.

This wasn't enough. The kid would bite his arm over and over again, ripping out the stitches. Eventually chunks of bloody flesh would start to get ripped off. The guardian then locked a smooth, leather mask over his mouth to put an end to this habit. This turned into anger issues. He would stop eating or sleeping. He would overreact to any negative situation with fury. He would kick the guardian's knees and scream that he hates it.

Growing up, during the high school period, the kid has stopped attending school and started home school. Although it wasn't really home-schooling as the guardian didn't provide the role of a teacher. It wasn't programmed to do this.

One day C.P.S would get involved in the whole situation. During a heated argument, the guardian handed out a piece of paper. It was the very first time for the kid to learn two things. One: the guardians were specifically made as a commission from the biological parents before they died, and two: the document stated that the kid's name was Hade. The document also stated that as long as the guardians are alive, they have an obligation to keep the kid. However it also stated that if one guardian was missing, then adoption centers had to be involved in case a single parent would be found, as one guardian wouldn't be enough for a proper child development.

That day came, when a father applied for the offer.

His wife died with the child she was carrying. He grieved for long but refused to stay alone, so this was his chance. His name was Shugotenshi Akarui. He was a well known mechanic that could repair practically everything. From household electronics to actual Omnics.

One last time, when Hade saw the guardian during the sign up of the adoption documents, he noticed something he never saw before. A strange symbol on the Omnic's chest. An eye with three dots above, and three dots below.

Unlike the guardian, Shugotenshi split his schedule to spend time with his new son and do his job. During this time young Hade learned a lot from his new father, and even found himself as his assistant in his workshhop. Before this however, Shugotenshi attended therapies with Hade as well as rehabilitation to help with the bad habit.

Eventually Shugotenshi would get sucked into shady yakuza business along with Hade, as he got an offer to upgrade his workshop.

One night however, an unknown gang attacked the workshop and murdered Shugotenshi, leaving teenage Hade behind, feeling no remorse, laughing to eachother.

Filled with rage, he promised to avenge his father.

With now formed Hashimoto and a leader, Hade started training combat and eventually made a way to higher ranks, earning himself a nickname Flashy, as he would flash before the eyes of his opponents.

The power of higher ranks however changed his attitude. He became more entitled to his role, as well as became ignorant. Every failure now became a fuel for his rage. His anger issues eventually made a return.

There was no coming back. He was lost. Lost in rage
