64: MONSTER

As a young teenager. Thomas grew up playing mostly fantasy RPG and watching anime. Regarding the games, he had never once thought about the protagonist's feelings. Without hesitation, he would throw the character he was controlling into hordes of monsters, into unbelievably painful trials. Believing the character to be invincible, chalking it up to the power of plot armour.

Not once did he consider. The pain, the hardship, the sheer insanity his favourite heroes had to endure and experience. They're the main character right? They can't possibly kill off the hero. It simply wouldn't make any sense!

Regarding the animes that he watched. He saw many that followed the tropes of harems and friendship. 

"With the power of friendship! MY PUNCH WILL BECOME MUCH MORE POWERFUL MWHAHA!" 

What the hell is this crap? He thought. Friendship and feelings alone couldn't possible make you over powered. That's just lacklustre writing by the author's side right?

Right, none of the above made much sense to him. Nor did it really matter to be honest.

Thomas opened his eyes to find himself at the beach. The calm gentle waves of water that would crash against his feet. Emily was resting by the parasols waving towards him.

SNIP*

"Ouch! Fuckinnn-" He glanced down to see a crab? Lobster? It was nibbling on his toes. "Fuck off cunt!" He kicked it away.

Without warning the water crashed into his legs, tripping him. He fell face down, as he tried to get up. He felt the energy leave his arms. His triceps refused to answer his call. 

"Ah, this is a dream isn't it?" It was a normal occurrence in dreams for the dreamer to find himself extremely slow, cumbersome and weak. Yes, this is a dream.

He glanced up to watch at that shitty lobster grew bigger and bigger. He blinked a few times to clear the saltwater that, for some reason tasted really sweet, out of his eyes. He watched as the lobster became gigantic.

"Eh?" He turned his gaze around to ask Emi for help, but she was gone. In fact, the whole beach was empty.

The water became more aggressive. A storm cracked out of no where. His life began to flash through his eyes.

"MOTHER. FATHER. EMILY. MARY. MEL. KOSUMI. ROBIN." Memories kept flashing through his eyes. "I-I don't understand?"

Then he noticed a young man enraged, filled with fury so great, his face almost seemed like a demon's. "Why was he so angry?"

"Hey, are you okay?" Thomas asked.

He glanced towards him, his anger so great, his eyes scared him. "I NEED YOU. IF I DIE HERE, NEXT WILL BE MEL, CLAM, BENNY AND GARY." The young man spoke.

"Huh?"  "I don't really know what he's talking about."

"I MADE PROMISES. I PROMISED MARY I WOULD RETURN, AND ROBIN THEY'RE WAITING FOR ME. THEY'RE WAITING FOR YOU!"

"The fury within his eyes increased. I was scared. Scared of this person. But then I saw within the corners of his eyes. He was crying. He reached his hand out towards me and I'm not sure why but, I chose to grab it."

...

As I turned, and approached the fallen pillar. Excited to smash my newest intruder into bits. Payment for cutting my tail off. I noticed something change within the surroundings.

"C R A U T,  I S  T H A T  Y O U ?"

Craut, the almighty creator of all beasts and monsters alike. My father, the one who gave me this honourable mission. To guard one of his many legendary legacies. Would occasionally send me messages, tasks. I waited but heard nothing. What is this feeling? This itchy, tingling feeling? 

Another crack of thunder roared through my domain. I turned to ensure my AOE skill didn't accidentally finish off my foe. And there, I finally understood what I was feeling. This foreign thing that made me itchy.

...

A jet black halo hovered whilst sparks of golden radiance flicked off the rims.

Two golden demon-like horns that flickered in and out of existence on the sides of the forehead.

Large golden demon/bat-wings gently flapped behind him.

The golden radiance that raged and raged within his eyes.

A weapon in each hand.

" M- M O N S T E R  !"

The golden radiance began to surge, gathering within his two blades.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" Asai roared.

"A H. I  S E E.  I  F E E L  F E A R."

[DEATH CALL]!

[DOUBLE PSYCHIC PHANTOM]!

"F A T H E R . . ."
