"Oi, lil sis," suddenly, Maya felt two arms wrap around her choking her slightly, "You sure wanna get me into this?"

Barely getting a hint of the sadistic smile on Raven's face was enough for Maya to shake her head in fear. Fake of course, she wasn't scared of Raven, she would never hurt her.

'She's said that herself, right?' Maya thought to herself remembering Raven's previous words, but at the same time, the chokehold was slowly increasing the pressure on her throat.

SINKT!!

"ARGH-Pfthu-" All of a sudden, Raven flinched and coughed a mouthful of blood before hearing the sound of the claws that were as sharp as an executioner's axe, hit and tear her and Maya's flesh.

It all happened so fast that she didn't feel her arm being severed and cut just underneath the shoulder.

But it was slow enough for her to see the claws pass through Maya's face like a hot kitchen knife through butter.

It wasn't cleanly cut like in movies and books, but rather in a savage and monstrous way. Maya didn't feel any pain nor did she scream or whimper, her life just ended.

On top of the tattered figure that she once was, stood an enormous mascular frame, hulking over Raven who was covered in Maya's deep red blood.

The huge monster flicked his claws and sprayed blood all over the place, including his own face.

The two devilish horns on top of his forehead made his sadistic smile more spooky and frightening, while his eyes glowed with a glint of dark red.

The sclera was black as night, as it matched his face, making the monster's eyes look rather small, which they definitely weren't.

Looking at the girl in front of him, his fangs penetrated his lips as they spread across his face in a gleeful smile.

Rather than killing her, he looked at the silent group behind her with another smirk that made him look like an ugly kid opening his birthday presents.

The group was as lost as the crimson-purple haired girl, yet they had acknowledged his presence, and he saw fear and rage in them.

The girl on the other hand looked as though she was already dead, not even caring to stop her blood from rushing through her open shoulder.

The monster had only one purpose in life, and that was kill and wreak havoc. It's something he had learnt the moment he was born.

He had to kill his own mother and siblings and feed on them in order to survive. It was a test every inhabitant of planet Zorax had to pass through.

Usually, the female would kill the male after she gets pregnant. And then she'd kill the kids after they've matured. That way she can keep getting stronger, until of course, she gets old enough for the strongest kid to kill her and feed on her and, almost always, on the other kids.

He had learnt that life is just a temporary disgusting place one have to pass by, and the only rest was in death; with not existing.

However, even by knowing that, he had no intentions of killing himself, rather, he had decided to perform an act of "kindness" to everyone he meets, erasing their miserable existence. Or that was the plan.

After years upon years of performing his "services", he grew fond of them. To the point where he'd enjoy every ounce of fear and fright in his "customers".

That's exactly why he was saving the little girl for when she realises what had happened. If she hasn't died by blood loss by the time he's "served" the group, he'll get back to her and give her the share she deserves.

"YOU B*STARD!!!" A young lady with jet black hair and blue sapphires for eyes yelled at him, but it only made him smirk harder.

If she didn't have tears running down her face, he'd say she's got some beautiful features. And he'd seen so many, yet so little qualified as beautiful.

"I might have to save you for later..." he said in a language that no one but him understood, and eyes filled with nothing but determination, not even lust.

It wasn't something he wanted or needed to do, but rather something that he'd decided to do.

As not to ruin her face any further and also to save her athletic body, he gestured with his clawed hand up, promoting red chains to erupt from the ground and tie around her body, pulling her down.

The lady kept thrashing against the chains to absolutely no avail, till her face touched the ground.

At that point, it was even hard for her to take a single breathe as the chains glued her body down and restricted her every move.

"That's better," he said in a deep voice, yet no one understood.

WHOOSH!!

The blonde kid slashed against him with a light sword, yet he didn't even evade, just stood there and held the mana blade between his long claws.

Not a split second after, his second set of claws passed through the kid's neck, granting him a rather quick death.

All of a sudden, the monster felt the ground under his feet crack as he slowly and rather slightly sank in.

Looking up, he realised that another lady that looks like the one he glued to the ground, with matching hair and eyes, was using gravity magic on him.

"Are you trying to make me kneel to your filthy self?" He roared in a rather collected manner. He wasn't angry, but surprised and repulsed.

If there was anything he hated, it was someone who didn't recognize their place, and the human in front of him didn't.

"Die", he was about to say when a huge explosion thundered all around him, as blinding light made it hard even for him to see.
