Death's Breeze

"Hahaha!! There you are!!" A loud roaring yelled came from behind him companies by loud stomps. Kevin see a huge body frame jump about 20 meters high toward his direction. Kevin quickly stand up and run again.

*Banngh!! Bang!!

"Run!! Runn!! Make it more fun!!" The ogre in shape of a man uprooted a tree and started to throw it at him.

*Boomm!! Boommm!!

Kevin run between trees. Then another loud stomp, Kevin change his direction without hesitation.

"Hahaha!! Puny human!! Like a rat!!"

Kevin already breathing hard as he continue to run away from him. He is already bleeding from flying debris that struck him but Kevin just keep his head forward not look in any direction.

'I'll die!! I don't want to die!!! I want to live!!!' It was all in his head like a mantra repeatedly chanted.

"This is getting boring!! Let it be more fun!!!" The ogre then started to pick up rocks and branches. He throws it at him and Kevin just follows his institution.

He jump to the side as a large rock came rushing forward like a cannon ball.

*Bommmm!!!

Shielding his eyes but still continuing to run.

"More!! More!! MORE!!!!" The ogre started to throw more stones at Kevin while he runs fast as he could. Didn't know what to do than just run.

After hours of struggle, Kevin finally fell down and the ogre lifted him up in the ground with his hand.

"Hahahaha!! That was fun!!! I'll let you rest for now and later we will play again." The ogre then toss him inside a cave he dug and cover it with tree trunks and stones.

'Why not just die? It will no longer hurt if I die.....' Kevin though as he remain motionless inside the cave.

Time pass with him remaining motionless staring at the dirt covering the ogre-made cave.

'Haaaa... Haaa.... Die... Diee... Dieee.... Die a painful death.... Full of sorrow and regret!! Die!'

Darkness vibrates as a deep growling voice came as if choking Kevin as he breathe hard. His body starting to get limp.

"N-no... I wan...t too live.... I won't die..... I won't bre-ak my pro-ise anym...ore..." Kevin tightly cling his hands on his neck. His ever lively beating start started to weaken.

'Hahahaha!!! You will die!! You're soul is mine to claim!! Hahaha!! Dieee!!!'

"No!!! No!!!!!" Kevin then roll on his back as his eyes became bloodshot but skin slowly becoming pale.

'Hahahaha!! Another hunt!!!"

"Not yet..." Kevin bring his hand up and bring it down on his chest.

*Thudd!!

'Foolish attempt!! Hahaha!! Nothing will save you!' The growling voice trying to discourage him.

"Nooo!! *Thud* Cough!!!" His skin fully became pale like the snow and breathing ever deep like in final wake but Kevin still trying to struggle. His other hand holds a stone and bring it up.

'YOU ARE DE- *THUDD!!*'

Kevin closed his eyes and drop the stone squarely on his chest as soon as it hit him. Kevin's final beat jolted another one with the stone somehow restarting another cycle.

"*Inhales!!* *Woooshhh!!* Cough!!! Cough!! Cough!! Ha

. Haaaa... I'm alive! I'm alive!!!" Kevin celebrated as he lifted his fist up as lie on the dirty ground around his body is a large dark steam of energy ever leaking.

'Foolish Mortal!! You only lengthen your agonizing death!!! I will follow you till you die!!!! *Howwlll!!!*'

The raging howl was followed with a powerful gale of cold wind from nowhere somehow making the blockage loose.

Kevin stare at his hand and slowly felt tired but fight it.

"Nen? I opened my nen? Fuck..." Kevin closed his eyes and started to try containing it.

As he do it, outside of his cave a bald woman wearing a yellow robe with hood over her head looking down on the cave mumbling something before leaving.

Inside the cave after hours, Kevin is slowly becoming thinner and thinner but progress can be seen as the leaking steam have been reduce as boiling kettle in weak flame and thin black flowing liquid on his skin.

In few more hours, it finally stops and Kevin open his eyes as he feel the viscous energy settled on his skin.

"I need to get out of here first but hiding my presence is more important. He will find him again if I don't hide my nen." Kevin though it all before closing his eyes again.

'Haaaa... Hide it like a bursting fart or pee..... Yes, that's it slowly. I don't need to rush.' Kevin continues to meditate as his presence started to blend with the darkness.

The morning sun started to rise and Kevin opened his eyes with anger as heavy stomp started to be produced again. Quickly, he started to dig his way up. Once, he broke out he run away from the source.

"ROAAARRRR!!! WHERE ARE YOU RATT!!!! I WILL HUNT YOU TILL YOU DIE!!!!!"

Kevin have long since gone from the place.
