The World We Do Not Know

Chapter 1 - The World We Do Not Know

The world has a constant need to show supremacy, the Rich get richer and the poor grow poorer.

Right now, there's a war between the two nations. The cries of people involved are heard throughout the cities. Desperate cries, screams and wails were causing sleepless nights. 

This war isn't only fought with guns and massive destructive war heads like all the wars we have ever heard of. It's a war fought with the support of elements of nature herself. Weather controlling, which is out of the ordinary science theories, was causing man-made droughts or floods and many more. By any means it's only massive violence, a straight massacre, strategic bombing, genocides, premeditated deaths from starvation, diseases and use of nuclear weapons. 

The aggression and demise of the war left the poor people in distraught more than ever, as they were the ones cleaning up large numbers of lifeless bodies lying on the war field. They were also forced to hold a gun in their hands, which had only held work tools before,to defend and fight in place of the Nobles who started this bloody war.

Amidst this battle field, is a border between the two nations. It looks like a lonely lane that had cut its ties from the rest of the world. It was protected with fences and barricades on either sides and filled with armies of each nation on each side. The whole sky was devilishly red, as if it was tainted with the ongoing bloodshed. Thick contaminated smoke merged with the air spread above in the sky,  with the never ending war below it. 

The whole lane of the border appears to be covered by this smoke. Every soldier on either side is waiting for the smoke to clear as they steadily ready their gun to aim at the enemies opposite to them.

It is silent, like the eerie calm before a storm, only the sounds of winds are heard as if the heavens are screaming from above. As the front line soldiers of each side gets ready to shoot with the smoke starting to clear, they noticed a strange dark shadow inside the smoke and it started forming the shape of a human. 

Its arms stretched outward on either side and before the soldiers realized what was happening, their bodies started falling apart piece by piece. Every limb of their body was cut off out of nowhere and their heads started to fly in the air as if they were sliced smoothly in one swing. 

The soldiers behind them are below ground level in the sewer like lines connecting the war field. The guns in their hands are shaking and they are having a hard time putting their swollen finger on the trigger. They trembled in great fear with their eyes wide open, to process the picture in front of them.

What they saw was beyond comprehension. Blood squirted from what resembled a torso with no limbs or head. It trickled down to form a pool of blood on the ground. They realize that their front line soldiers were getting slashed but were not able to see who was attacking them.

"You all have done enough..., now embrace death" - a soldier in despair faintly heard a male voice say, his voice filled with hatred, deep as the sea itself.

"Disappear!"- the body from within the smoke uttered fiercely. 

*Whoosh~~*

The entire war field area of 10km consisting of tanks, artillery, the fence, the barricades, the life, the dead, everything within the 10km radius disappeared instantly in a blink of an eye, leaving a huge trench on the ground.

Only a trace of the man's extraordinary power remained on the border where the man stood upright. Even the land that was soaked with blood has disappeared, as if someone has erased them forever from motherEarth.

"Maybe I overdid it" - said the voice softly to himself as he crosses the borders of one of the nation that is involved in this awful war. No trace of remorse could possibly be seen on his face as he walked out, like a body with no soul or feelings.

The people in the HQ(Headquarters) are desperately trying to contact the front lines but none seem to be responding.

During all the chaos inside the HQ, the door to the entrance opens and a soldier can be seen standing at the door with despair and fear written all over his face. His eyes were wide open as if he has seen a horrific ghost, that he couldn't erase from his mind.

"What's the status? Idiot!" the head of the HQ yells desperately towards the new soldier who came back from monitoring the situation.

The soldier gathered up all his strength to speak as he snapped back to reality from the shock and he replies, "The whole front line soldiers, including tanks and war heads have disappeared"

"Disappeared?"- the head asks in a puzzled voice.

"Ye-yes, even the war field. The very land is empty all over and no trace of blood or a soldier's body is found." cried the soldier as his voice shook.

Suddenly, out of nowhere an alarm goes off. 

"EMERGENCY!!!"

"We are under attack by someone- he- he doesn't seem normal !"- a report came by fast through a speaker from the camp nearby.

"What is happening here? Under attack by whom? I want the surveillance camera right now! Let me see what's happening!" - the head yells in panic. It spelled chaos in every corner of the camp.

"A stealth drone is dispatched to the sight now, sir" a soldier in the HQ room replies. His hands are shaking and trembling in fear and he has to force his fingers to type on the virtual keyboard.

But, the view that the HQ sees as the drone arrives at the camp is beyond horrific. No one could have described the graphic that they witnessed.

They all started to feel desperate that they have to live through this day and they clueless-ly keep firing endless bullets repeatedly at the strange attacker as their last hope but it was to no avail.

The HQ were just helplessly staring at a massacre.

"30 soldiers followed by a small battalion are rushing to our quarter to provide us with back up sir!" - a soldier smiles, filled with hope. He informs his captain of the camp which was under attack by the mysterious man.

"DON'T! Tell everyone to retreat. No wait, just order them to run for their lives, tell them to go and pray to God with everything they've got to save our nation! T-tell them to.. Te-" the captain says with furious voice as he keeps losing every bit of hope left, each time a soldier of his falls down to the merciless man causing the captain to lose his mind. The only thing that comes to the mind of captain is the photo of his wife and his two children.

"To stand and face this extreme foe requires the god himself to be behind you. We are all going to die. " says a soldier eyeing the captain with sadness in his eyes as if he seems to know that no one will return to their homes.

Soon a backup troop of the thirty soldiers arrived with questioning looks written all over their faces.

The backup soldiers didn't know about anything until they feel a chill behind their backs. A very murderous intent made them freeze for a second, but they decided to ignore it since it was a normal feeling on a battlefield.

Every soldiers arrived and started to take positions, but before they could even make any decisions, a man suddenly appeared in between the thirty soldiers in the blink of an eye causing a great stir in the hearts of the soldiers.

The time seems to be slowing down. The person who was between the thirty soldiers with blood stains on his hands looked up at them slowly, with a devilish smile surfacing upon his face as his eyes appears to be swallowed in striking red blood, completely making the soldiers think that they are not fighting a human here but some monster.

"May the bad be dead, good be left alone, taint me with your blood" - the man speaks calmly as he spreads his arms out snaps his fingers.

*The world suddenly became silent as if nothing is moving* "Actually..." the strange man says as he look up toward the sky and his eyes turn blood red and his smile turns creepy. "Let the good and bad and everybody die, it's two or three people less on the planet that way. " He finishes in a sadistic tone.

Without a second thought, the bodies of all thirty  soldiers were cut diagonally from their belly to c.h.e.s.t, and their upper bodies fly in the air as the blood sprays all over the mysterious man.

His face is covered in blood, his eyes glowing mysterious. The white part of his eyes is blood red in color, with bottle green colored cornea and black pupil, truly looking like a demon. The way he kills people without any hesitation is as if he is loving the despaired and helpless faces of the soldiers, and loving the blood showering upon him.

*"He is definitely loving the feeling of the blood and the odour that it is emitting"* everyone at the

HQ thinks while watching, with extreme fright taking over each and everyone.

After he annihilated the whole camp, the mysterious man walked over in the direction of the stealth drone camera as if he has nothing to do with the killings he has just done. He opens the Palm of his left hand and the drone which is supposed to be stealthy and flying twenty feet above int the air instantly appears in his hands while he keeps walking. Its as if it the drone is teleported into his hands.

The man then clears his throat. "It's time for your nation to repent for what you have done" - says the man in a low and kind voice asks he cracks his neck seemingly getting ready to kill the rest of the soldiers in HQ.

"Telepo - Hmmm, no, I can use three of them at once for now, let's see if I can increase it to four or five at one time" The man talks to himself and leaps forward "Time....."
