Chapter 4
Crade was seen staring at the bodies of Katsumi and Akemi. His family, the only people that would ever truly accept him for who he was. The people who took him in and loved him like he was their own child. Crade thought to himself, if it wasnt for him, they wouldnt have been dead, slaughterd by these demons. He then heard one escape out of the window, breaking his attention away from his parents.
Tears ran down Crades face, his sadness grew less and less rapidly, as his anger went off the scale. Crade looked at each and every monster that was here. Crade suddenly grew horns, his skin color turning red, his hair becoming spikey, growing long all the way to his back, and turning pitch black. His eyes turned black while his pupils dissapeard as before when he fought Takeru. These monsters that seemed so aggressive and demonic, became petrified.
Demonic Figure: ...please... have mercy...
Crade then, in an instant, decapitated all of them with his bare hands, noting that before these monsters were just as fast as Crade, but in this new form, he has put them in fear.
Unsatisfied with them being killed so quickly, Crade then starting grabbing the torso's only to tear them limb from limb. Quickly destroying the bodies into a pulp.
Crade then grabbed the bodies of his dead parents, then fell to his knees and started to cry and shout at the top of his lungs while returning to his normal form.
Crade in tears: Mom, Dad, Im so sorry.... I never met for any of this to happen...... I wasnt strong enough to protect you guys......I let all of this happen. I couldnt do anything.... Im so helpless...
Crade then heard the police run into the house. Crade knew that he had to leave, him going berserk and him being around his parents.. he would likley be blamed. Running to the window, he grabbed his jacket, looked back at his parents one last time, and ran off into an abandon ware house.
Crade: I'll stay here for the night, i have enough money to go sneak around town for some food. I'll need to wear my hood up just incase.
Crade sat down in the office of the warehouse. He looked all over the place until he found an old tv to keep him occupied. Then while he was watching tv, he dropped the book that he picked up from that man in the forest.
Crade: Hey I never looked into this before, wonder what it is?
Crade then opened the book and started to read, the words in the book were in a different language that he couldnt understand. This was probobly the language that those monsters speak Crade thought to himself.
That monster spoke to him while he was in his different form, but somehow Crade could understand him. Crade's only solution was to transform and read the book....if he can control himself. But it was risky seeing as how he can only transform when his emotion goes off the charts. Seeing Reika being hurt set him off in an rampage, but seeing his parents dead made him transform.
Crade: Maybe if I think of something so horrible... I can read this book.
Crade then thought of his parents dying immediately. But this only made him sad. Crade then thought of how they were killed. But this only made him sad and made him think of how he was to late to save them.
But then Crade thought of the bullies at school always picking on him. Calling him a loser, getting pushed around all the time, making him angry. Crade then thought of his brother always yelling at him telling him that he's not strong. Making him more angry. He then thought of the time Takeru pinned Reika against the wall and started choking her. Making him furious. Crade then thought of Reika begging Takeru to let go, making him even more furious. Crade then thought of Reika coughing gasping for air, making Crade extremley furious. Crade then thought what if he not stopped Takeru from choking her, she would have died, Reika would have died. Transforming Crade into his new form.
Crade lashed out in anger, destroying the office (but luckliy not the tv) and then noticed the book. Crade then tried to calm himself down enough to atleast read the book to see what it said.
Crade opened the book and the first page it said was, The Akuma Army.
We will prevail with our general Hachiman leading the army
and our Lord Bishamonten
Crade will finally learn of himself within this book, find out in Chapter 5!
