《Sting Them to Death》Interlude - Hope

She remembers when everything wasn’t so suffocating.

When everything seem so simple and when they could run around in the grassy plain with the warm summer sun beaming down on them without a care in the world, chasing after their friends.

And when mom would call for them to come back home for dinner when it start getting dark.

Then, everything changed for the worst.

She could feel the once gentle sun turn harsh, burning their skins, see the grass withering away and soil below turning into sands.

People scream in pain as they felt their skin being melted off their bodies and then their insides as well turning them into nothing more than puddles of liquid.

They saw animals mutating into gigantic monsters that went on damage-causing even more death and destruction.

And amid all this chaos, walked what she thought before she thought was a man dressed in clothes of fine silk, like that of a noble before she saw his face, which was covered with eyes.

It wasn’t a human or a monster but a demon.

It was tall, lanky, and was hunched over with arms that were slightly touching the ground, hands that had sharp claws.

Its eyes looked around the chaos before noticing her. She shivered and swore that she could feel the demon smiling even though it didn’t have a mouth as it casually walk over to her with all of its eyes zeroing in on her.

She tried to run but found herself stuck in place, no matter how hard. The monster stops right in front of her and looks down.

“Oh you’re just perfect~,” The demon said, its voice sounding slimmer than that of a slime, deeper than that of a toad’s croak, and was downright inhuman. “To think that someone like you would be here, I must be blessed,” It continues it sounding happier with each word it said, not noticing her shivering and on verge of tears as she looked down the ground, trying not to meet its gaze.

Then her vision went dark and she awoke in a cage.

Now, it hurt to even breathe and it felt as if thousand hot needles were piercing their body at once, their limbs being crushed over and over again.

All she could see was darkness as she could not see and all she can hear is the constant screams for help that will never be answered, feeling bit by bit her humanity slipping away.

She wish that this would all just stop, that she would be able to rest and be free from all of this suffering.

But no matter how much she begs, pleads, or wishes, she would always be stuck in this cage.

However, it would seem that something has changed, she could it. After all, the screams for help were a little now. Not by much, but it was quieter than used to be.

Maybe, just maybe, she would be free soon, finally being able to rest.
