1 Killing Intent

It was raining.

The jet black clouds were covering every single spot in the blue sky, there was even some thunders ready to be unleashed in some poor house.

The rain was getting heavy.

There were only the sound of the drops of water that fell in the ground and the steps of a person walking over the dirt.

The person was a teen of 16 years, his long hair were black like the clouds over his head, his black eyes were eerily glowing in pure white scleras, and his clothes were wet just like his head, because he didn't have an umbrella.

Every single strand of hair was shining due to the drops of water that were falling from his hair and the streetlights that were lighting him and his way.

Every single step he made was slow and unnerving, his expression was blank, but the strangest thing of him was that the insects near the streetlights were dying just from being near him.

Everyone had something they would call a 'Curse', for some people would be simply being fat, for others it was their past, some would call their friends a 'Curse', and this teenager's 'Curse' was this, Killing Intent.

Since he was born, he released a strange aura that would keep away other babies like him, so he was alone even during his childhood, when his parents would take him near some babies, they would cry, making the babies' parents angry and taking away their childs.

But it didn't end there, when he started going to the kindergarten, that strange aura got stronger, warding off the other kids of his age and some bigger kids, when he entered the elementary school, it just continued to grow stronger, leaving him alone even from adults.

And then when he reached the age of 10, his parents kicked him outside his house because they were afraid of his 'Curse', some months later he was dropped out from the school because some kids tried to blame him for stealing money from a teacher's wallet just because they didn't liked him.

So, from that moment on, he lived on stealing other people's possessions, and at the age of 13, the strange aura became strong enough to frighten the adults too, like that time a lonely robber met with him and he ran away immediately the moment he looked at the kid, letting fall a bag full of money.

The kid, whose name was Jean, was happy from that and bought a phone, and some clothes, it was a bit difficult because people thought that he steal that money, but some instants later they glanced away because they were afraid of his killing intent.

When he had 14 years, his killing intent frightening dangerous animals too, when he entered a zoo, there wasn't any nearby animal that would even make a sound, even the lions, proud kings of the beasts, would not even move.

Slowly, his killing intent started getting even stronger, and a year later, he would only see dead insects in his way, it scared him, because he realized that in some years, his killing intent would start killing people too.

During his time alone, the only source of enjoyment were games and videos, because no one would be afraid of him at the other side of the screen, and he liked passing time reading about novels, like Against the Gods, and even some fanfictions about things, like Ex-True God in Anime Verse. (I am fucking advertising my own novel!!)

The thing he liked most was reading in the phone, novels, memes, fanfictions, and etc...

But the thing he hated the most was the rain, it would wet him, making it hard to see, and wetting the phone when he was reading, often the sky would be really dark, blocking the view to the clean sky, and every time something bad happens, it will rain.

And soon, he would have another reason to hate the rain...

Jean was walking in the street, tired, he was searching a place to sleep, because every time he found an house to buy, the sellers would be afraid of him and not come at the metting, making it impossible to buy it.

Then he found a corner, where the rain didn't go, he walked there until he heard a gunshot, and his body felt warm, but he was getting weaker, then he looked down and found blood that was trailing down from his body, and the rain didn't helped because of the chemicals inside it that came from the sea.

Then he started to turn and found a man with a gun, his expression was one of anger and fear.

Man: Fucking brat, making me scare so much... Get out from the way! *Bang*

Then he shot another time at Jean, making another hole in his chest, shocking him.

Jean: 'This fucker... Who would shot just for fear?!'

This was the first time he felt such rage to someone, the rage slowly turned in killing intent, feeding it to the 'Curse' he already had, and giving an heart attack at the man, who let fall his gun and fell in the ground lifelessly.

Jean was stretching his body under the rain and over the ground, he looked at the sky, and started crying.

The rain was going over his face, wetting him even more, his holes in the chest were stopping bleeding due to the absence of blood and were filled with rainwater.

There was no sound except for the rain falling on the ground and his heartbeat that was getting slower, he closed his eyes and said.

Jean: Life is so unfair...

And a flame, the flame inside his soul turned off, together with his killing intent, and for the first time, he felt at the same level of every other living being, because he found his end, like everyone else does, but that end... Was just the Beginning of a unique story.
