《Death Fantasy》Chapter 3: Chaos and Suspicion
Advertisement
"You guys are the last ones back I guess you found nothing either, hold on where are the other three." The burly gauntlet man spoke up, him the Gangster, the old man and ruby girl seemed the only ones in their right mind to converse and lead.
"The thug with the chain tattoo tried to kill the Stripper girl because she rejected him, so me and the fatty stepped in to stop the conflict however he had a powerful ability and wrapped us all in chains I managed to escape with my blades but the Stripper and fatty were crushed I luckily stabbed him with my blade otherwise he would be the one standing here now." Damien bullshitted more than he had ever before and what could people really say about it they valued their escape and life more than those random strangers.
"How do we know your not the imposter who just killed those three so there's less people to deal with later?" The lawyer proclaimed as if he had solved the mystery.
'shzzting'
A blade the size of a finger whizzed through the air and cut the lawyers cheek making it bleed slightly. "The Intruder doesn't have a gift, I showed you mine so that should clear suspicion. Why doesn’t everyone display their ability" Damien sat down already feeling the cracks in this group.
"Alright we'll do that then" Everyone agreed and started showing off their ability. One by One everyone had shown their gift all that was left was the Burly man with the gauntlet and the skinny high school student.
"Oliver isn't the intruder he has been friends with me and Seth since childhood, he wasn't given an ability but an item instead, look he was given some form of potion." The girl from the trio held up a chemical vial.
"I can say I'm not the intruder even though my gift is an item I can use it's special function equivalent to a ability. Whereas that boy could just be a fake with some random bottle of chemicals" The burly man stood up and clenched his fist and then hit the ground making it shatter.
"I think this Oliver is the most suspicious so how about we have a vote whether you think he is the intruder or not , if you don't think he's the intruder stand on the left side and if you do stand on the right side." The Ruby Girl put forth another smart suggestion that everyone agreed to.

In the end the people who thought Oliver wasn’t the intruder were the trio of high school kids, the Yakuza with the flame, the young kid with the discs, the nurse with the needles, the old lady with the surfboard on sand, the guy with wings and the shop clerk with the body tattoo.
On the side that thought that Oliver was the intruder was the lawyer with the hammer, the black model with the red slash, the Japanese muscular giant with the rock golem, the uniformed youngster with the brain, the girl with the ruby, the old guy with the shield, Damien and obviously the gauntlet guy.
"You know that neither of these guys are the intruder." The uniformed youth whispered into Damien’s ear.
"Yeah I'm pretty sure they aren't but I'm doing this to salvage more abilities, I'm sure you already guessed that though uniform."
"You seem to have a pretty good grasp of my powers, but you may still be underestimating me. The names Silas by the way I'm an eighteen year old American from a private school." Silas had an understanding of Damien’s plan and looked to play along.
"Well Silas who do you think the real intruder is and why are you helping me?" Damien could understand Silas slightly but he really was still a mystery.
"The Lawyer, even though it was implied the hider doesn't have a gift it wasn't a given fact, he is also extremely suspicious and the more abilities I have the longer I will survive." Silas spoke matter of factly like dealing with others to survive is the smartest choice.
"Good answer, I also think it's the lawyer the feeling my blade felt was more metallic than bone." Silas was quite confused but guessed that Damien’s blades share his senses. "So what do we do now? I advise a battle royal whilst trying to deal with the lawyer.
"I was thinking something more simplistic like shooting everyone but I guess an all out fight works well." Damien followed Silas' strategy and started adding fuel to the fire.
"I must say it's awfully convenient that the guy with the potion has no knowledge of what it does, he hasn't even spoken up for himself yet." Damien knew he was portraying himself as the villain here but to him doing that was simply something fun to do.

"I have no way to prove I'm not the intruder nor to prove I am the intruder, why don't we settle down and think this over carefully I can already see a fight brewing." The skinny kid Oliver finally spoke up and showed his resistance to conflict.
"If we just cut him open we will find out if he's a robot or not." The Lawyer put forth a bloody solution
"I agree" Damien and Silas both followed along with the violent suggestion.
"I'm sorry kid but I don't wanna die, I also agree.", "I have grandkids to look after I need to put my life first." The Burly and Old man also hesitantly agreed.
"Doesn't affect us either way" The Model spoke for herself and the giant, they seemed to have spawned an unconventional relationship whilst searching.
"We can't just kill or wound him because he might be the intruder, we have to be sure." Those that were on Oliver’s side all pleaded for no bloodshed, maybe because of their sense of justice or because they weren't capable in a fight.
"No one has to get hurt except Oliver just let these guys check whether he's a robot or not, a simple cut off finger should prove it." The Ruby Girl suggested a gruesome approach this time a lot less thought out than before.
She's scared, she seemed stable and strong earlier but the fear is slowly seeping in like it has for the rest of the people here. I think fear and terror are natural reactions, it's what keeps us alive, such a shame this unknown land has changed me so much, sike this is the best feeling ever having no fear is like being an uncaged tiger hahahaha.
"Why should we waste time bickering when we can get it over with right now." The Lawyer called forth a pure white sledge hammer and swung for Oliver. Those on Oliver's side started to push, shove and flee which caused the girl with the cloak tattoo to hit her head and fall unconscious.
"You bastard, I will make you pay for that!" The tornado sword kid rushed the Lawyer and started fighting him with a sword made out of air.
"Maybe the voice lied and they are all intruders, kill them all!" The Burly man had completely lost it and attacked the child with the discs with his gigantic gauntlet.
"You coward attacking a child" the man with the wings tattoo jumped forward spreading bladed wings. However he was intercepted by the Ruby Girl who had created a spear and sword out of rubies. The giant and Model attacked the Yakuza man, with the giant turning his body into rocks, the Model sending a laser slash and the Yakuza shooting out flames. The shield man used a large metallic shield to push against the shop clerk and Old lady. Silas approached the nurse and put up a Muay Thai fighting stance.
One by one everyone started attacking each other only Damien and Oliver stood back and watched.
"How does it feel to know you have caused this violence and potential death?." Damien taunted Oliver whilst they both watched the battles unfold.
"I could ask you the same question, why have you caused this, why attack innocent people like this. I'm sure with enough thought we could have found the intruder." Oliver was confused by Damien’s actions and couldn't comprehend his thoughts.
"We already know who the intruder is, anyway I'm doing this to live longer after all the more power you have the longer you live." Damien looked at Oliver and felt disgusted that in a life or death situation you would put your hopes on others and aim to save everyone, that outlook would only guarantee your death.
"You knew all along, you fucking bastard my friends could die because of you!" Oliver picked up a piece of shattered glass and ran towards Damien.
Your a fool and deserve to die for your ideology but I think I'll let you live and suffer in this world for following it.
Damien instantly called a sword into his hand and cut down.
'thweep'
With a blood curdling scream Oliver fell to the floor except his right arm was now several meters from his body, laying there he winced in agony before passing out from losing an arm.
"Well now that the small fry has been taken care of I think I'll deal with these little skirmishes." Damien was now fully engulfed in excitement to battle and kill, ready to obtain even more power.
