Deviant: No Longer Human

Boom!

Boom!

Booom!

"Ahhhhhh!"

"S-Save us—ahhhhhhhhh!"

"God Merc—"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The entire military base, once a fortress of security, now stood engulfed in flames, the anguished cries of soldiers piercing the air as the grim reaper floated ominously above.

"Sergant, what the hell is that thing?"

"I don\'t know, private, but we need to get out of here!"

Splash!

Splash!

Splash!

Wherever his gaze fell, chaos followed, each unfortunate soul meeting a fiery demise in an instant.

"Why is this happening? What did we do to deserve this?"

"I don\'t know, but we need to fight back!"

Wang Xiao\'s eyes burned with fiery intensity as he continued his assault, his mission clear: to decimate all the bases of Zero, whether they were responsible for the attack or not — irrelevant!

His anger burned fiercely, needing an outlet.

The foolish —Gabrial shouldn\'t have put his hands in the fire if he was scared of getting burned back by it!

Boom!

With each explosion, the ground trembled beneath their feet, the very air burned with the intensity of his fury.

"Please, have mercy! Spare us!"

"There is no mercy for those who sow the seeds of chaos!"

Wang Xiao pressed on, his voice cold, until every last vestige of the military base was consumed by the inferno of his vengeance.

Boooooom!

Behind him, a sea of inferno stretched as far as the eye could see, but Wang Xiao\'s rampage was far from over.

The devastation unleashed in California was just the beginning.

Within the span of a single day, the flames of destruction spread like wildfire, consuming states from Virginia to North Carolina to Texas—no corner of the country was spared from the fury of his wrath.

As the news spread like wildfire, reports flooded in of a mysterious phenomenon: military bases, operating under the guise of Zero\'s influence, were being obliterated one by one, leaving nothing but destruction and death in their place.

The merciless slaughter of innocent lives left the walls of the bases painted red with the blood of the fallen, each location transformed into a raging inferno of chaos and despair.

The once secure bastions of power now lay in ruins, all due to single grave mistake thier leader commited!

________

The district, 24th October, 10pm!

"Gabrial!"

"Gabrial!?"

An intense woman, her eyes ablaze with fury, prowled the once-bustling halls of the now deserted Zero headquarters.

The metallic echo of her footsteps reverberated through the empty corridors, a stark contrast to the frantic packing of the few remaining staff.

"Ugh! Where the hell has he disappeared to?"

"You bastard, you didn\'t abandon me, did you!?"

Clara\'s voice rang out, filled with frustration and betrayal.

Her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging into her palms as she fought to contain her anger.

How could Gabriel leave her behind after all they had been through together?

As she continued her search, her mind raced with a torrent of thoughts and questions.

Had he simply forgotten about her?

Or was there something more sinister at play?

"Hey, you! Have you seen Gabriel around!?" Clara\'s voice sliced through the tense silence, stopping a young officer in his tracks.

"!"

The officer, caught off guard by Clara\'s sudden appearance, stammered nervously, "I-I haven\'t seen him, ma\'am. We\'re all just packing up to leave."

Clara\'s frustration boiled over as she grabbed the officer\'s collar, her grip tightened, "You better start talking, soldier. I need to find Gabriel, and I need to find him now."

!!

The officer\'s eyes widened in fear, his voice trembling as he replied, "I-I swear, ma\'am, I haven\'t seen him. Please, let me go!"

Thud!

Clara\'s grip loosened slightly as she considered her next move.

Gabriel\'s sudden disappearance only fueled her determination to find him, no matter the cost.

With a determined nod, she released the officer.

Boooooom!

!!

Just as she contemplated her next move, a deafening blast echoed through the air, causing Clara to flinch instinctively.

"What!?"

Her eyes widened as she glanced out the window, spotting three ominous shadows floating ominously in the distance.

"They already arrived!"

"Fuck!"

Her heart pounded in her chest as realization dawned upon her.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

She had to get out of there, and fast.

Whoosh!

Without hesitation, Clara bolted towards the hidden exit, her mind churning with fear and determination as she raced against time to escape the incoming danger.

As she sprinted through the dimly lit corridors, her thoughts raced. "What\'s happening? Who are those shadows? And where is Gabriel?"

Panic surged through her veins, but she pushed it aside, focusing solely on reaching safety.

"Yes!"

Finally, she reached the concealed exit, her hands shaking as she fumbled with the lock.

"Come on, come on," she muttered under her breath, her heart hammering in her chest.

Whoosh!

With a click, the door swung open, and Clara burst out into the night, the cool air hitting her face like a slap.

Without looking back, she raced into the darkness, her mind consumed by one thought: survival.

_______

"Ahhh—"

Boooom!

Wang Xiao tossed a shivering soldier into the air, the next moment his body exploded into a rain of blood, splattering crimson droplets over the ground.

"!"

Aurora recoiled, squinting her eyes in disgust as the wave of blood came crashing down, narrowly avoiding a direct hit as it splashed against the ground.

Splash!

The earth was painted red, the aftermath of Wang Xiao\'s onslaught.

Aurora glanced at him, her suspicion evident.

He had nearly decimated everyone here, and this lone soldier was the last standing.

"Perhaps she has escaped. Is this wise, though? Gabriel and Clara were merely part of Hell\'s slave organization that attacked. Why destroy Zero?" Aurora voiced her concern, her tone laced with apprehension.

Wang Xiao shook his head, his resolve unshaken.

"Always being reasonable can be mistaken for weakness. Sometimes, it\'s necessary to be unreasonable," he replied, his voice cold as ice as his eyes scanned for their next target.

!!

Luna\'s grin widened uncontrollably at his words, her heart racing with anticipation for either Gabriel or the North American guardian to burst onto the scene!

But to her dismay, they were nowhere to be seen.

The truth was, the attack had been orchestrated by Clara herself!

Despite Gabriel\'s reluctance to give permission, he didn\'t intervene either.

And when he discovered Clara\'s blunder, he was already prepared to sacrifice his own arm to escape the chaos.

This wasn\'t the moment for him to engage in combat!

He still has an important mission to accomplish — something greater than the worth of his life!
