" Beat him, Beat him, Beat the stupid pig " a boy yelled as he watched some big boys beat a little boy that rolled himself in a ball form.

Blood and bruises all over his body, they kept kicking him over and over again, suddenly he busted out laughing," all this exercise is helping me get stronger don't you think " the boy said as he continued laughing.

The leader of the bullies walk up to him the others step aside then the leader bully grabbed him by the neck, then proceeded to raise him up.

The boy's feet left the ground, " You know what, you are going to do anything I say and I will stop making your life miserable " the leader of the bully said.

" Now you listen punk, am no dog and I shall not do your biding, you know you are as brainless as fuck and you can kill me if you want, I have nothing to do with my life anymore " The boy said.

" As you wish " the leader said and threw him on the ground, like hungry hyenas the other boys rushed at him punching and stomping on him.

" Edward go get the ropes and iron bats, I would like to hear snapping bones " The leader said, one of the boys left and came back a few minutes later with ropes and iron bats.

They tied him up and dragged him to a nearby river, first they forced his head into the river, he stayed still for five whole minutes.

They thought he was dead and brought him out, " You all know that you can't drown me " the boy said, then they tied him upside down on a tree branch.

And hit him with the metal bats like a pinata, he just keep laughing and laughing till they were tired and by that time he had passed out, " One last thing " the leader said as he cut him lose.

" Throw him in the river " the leader said, as they held him on both hands, one of the boys said suddenly " Look it's the purple haired cursed boy he's sitting by himself drawing ", the other boys looked to were he was pointing.

" That's Drake's target, and that guy is strong " the leader said and they threw him into the river and left.

He never had the reason to help some one but something took control of him and he couldn't stop himself, he swam to the dog and grabbed it before swimming back to the shore where the old man was.

" Thank you my boy, you have helped me more than you think you have " the old man said." Don't mention it " Zane said and tried to walk away.

" Zane, let me give you something as a thank you " the old man said," how did you know my name " Zane asked as he turned around.

" I know many things about you, you are from my bloodline after all, take this necklace and use it to perform a bloodline bonding that will give you my abilities, I have been looking for any of my worthy bloodline that I could give my powers to that would make an immortal god of Assassins " the old man said.

" None of what you're saying makes sense to me please can you explain further " Zane asked.

" I am the god of Assassins necromancy and monsters and I am looking for any of my worldly bloodline that would inherit my abilities because my time is up as as a god "

" I am going to die soon and I need someone to carry on my legacy so you are the perfect fit go and dig out the dagger and bracelet you hid under the ground and come back here I will show you how to carry out the bloodline bonding " the old man said.

" None of what you said made sense again " Zane replied, " there isn't much time left just go and get it "the old man said.

Zane run as quickly as possible to the nearby forest and when he got to a particular spot he started digging up for the dagger and the bracelet minutes later he found it.

You went back to the show of the river and met the old man frying some fresh fish with his dog, " Zane my boy would you like to have some fish " he said.

" Yes please " Zane replied, they sat down for the fish, few minutes later they were through," now cross the daggers like an x and place the bracelet on the x and the pendant of the necklace should cover the other side of the bracelet "the old man said.

Zane did as he was told, the old man brought out a dagger and gave it to Zane, " Now cut yourself with the dagger and allow the blood to drop on the constellation " the old man said.

Zane was hesitant at first but cut open his hand and blood poured on the constellation, first few minutes nothing happened but as Zane looked at the old man about to call him a liar.
