MARK MY MATE

"He needs to be killed before it's too late" Malik heard his step brother say. This was insane, why did everyone want him dead, were they scared he'll want to be the crown prince, he had explained to everyone that he wasn't interested in leadership or responsibilities but they still considered him a threat. "Am I this powerful" he smiled to himself. It couldn't be a reason for him to smile but he liked living a stress free life anyway. He went to his Chambers stressed less that his brother wanted him dead, he was sure no human being could kill him, he was too powerful for that. He was scared of the demons though, he knew it would be had to stand a chance against them, especially the old ones, only if he could bring them to his side. Malik was son of a demon princess and the King of Demzel. His father had threw his mother out of the palace, after it was proved that she was a witch. Rana, Malik's mother spoke to her son before she left, "I know you are sad, but I will come back and take you, I am not a witch but still not human, you may some supernatural things happening to you but keep them a secret, never let anyone discover you are not a human." and after those words he never saw her again. When he turned eighteen, he found out he was half demon, since then, things became tough for him, demons started hunting him down, he tried to call his mom for help but she never showed, slowly, he began to believe his mother had long forgotten about him. He was always in his Chambers, grieving his lone life. His father, the King loved him but was always busy and had little time for him. He had once told him Rana his mother was his favorite, but circumstances forced him to let her go. Malik was now seated in his bedroom, he looked at the roof and said "Mom where are you now, when you said you'd come back for me, did you mean a hundred years later." He was sick and tired of this palace and all the people in it. "You still call out for your mom, dude you are twenty four years already, not some teenager" a voice called from behind him. "Can you stop appearing in my room unannounced" It was Rafshan his demon friend, he was one of the few demons that had accepted him though half human, and also his best friend. "What were you thinking about anyway" "These fools are still planning to kill me" "Are you scared?" "No, but am tired, I wish I could go somewhere far from this damn palace and from all people, demons, dude am tired of this crap" "Where is that place, I mean does it exist" "I don't know, wait once you said you can take me to the future, I mean like a hundred years" "That's too far, I mean a hundred years" "Not just a hundred, hundreds, like twenty regimes away" "Are you serious?" "More than serious, I am tired" "Okay, I haven't done this for a long time, I'm excited, when is it?" "Any time you are ready" "Even now?" "Really, can it happen now, let's do it" "Won't you say goodbye to people you'll miss". "Dude, I only have you, so I guess goodbye" "Huh, okay let's do this, the thing is I'll teleport you there, then I'll come back" "Okay, then what are we waiting for, what's my part" "Just close your eyes" He closed his eyes, and felt a strong force carrying them, was so fast, he heard the wind blowing up his ears and before he could capture what happened exactly, he felt himself standing on land. He opened his eyes, and saw his Rafshan looking at him with a smile, "It's so beautiful right" Malik's POV I looked around, everything looked so different, there was tall buildings, many were transparent and I could even see inside, what was the point of building a house and people could see everything inside, everything looked weird to me, there was too much noise, but people walked about unbothered, how could someone walk comfortably with this much noise. Everything I saw reflected no beauty, I looked at Rafshan and said "No it's not beautiful" ************************ "What are you saying? Look at these buildings, luxurious, look at the women dressed very well" "Is that what you call well, they are almost naked" "Get used to it or let's go back" "Whatever, I'm going no where, am already smelling freedom" "Okay, then here are some better clothes" "When did you get those?" "No questions, to fit in this society you have to where them" he said and disappeared. "The heck, this man is unbelievable" He found a place and changed clothes, "Where should I start?" He was totally confused, he started walking, as he was walking a gang of boys stood before him. "We need cash, or we'll give you a good beating handsome" one of them said. Malik stared blankly at them, they took out there guns trying to scare him but he looked like he understood nothing. "What do you think you are" Malik was still confused, "What do you want?" They all started laughing, "Are you mad or something" They became angry, this man was going overboard, one of them punched him, he looked at them, he felt like killing one by one of them. He stood up, "What do you want from me?" One of them put him at gun point, he was still confused about the whole situation. "What's this thing you're pointing at me?" They all laughed "You look intelligent but surprisingly, you are a fool." Malik kicked him in the stomach, "Am not a fool". The man became furious and put him back at fun point. "What's happening here?" a female voice said, they all turned to find a girl looking at them, "Nothing, kid you can leave" one of the goons said "I don't see nothing", she replied. "Stay out of this kid" the other said putting her at gun point as well. She came forward and spat in the goon's face. He slapped her and Malik, attacked him. A fight broke out and a bullet was fired, the girl was shot. She fell down, and the goons ran away leaving, Malik with the girl. Malik ran to her, "I..I.. I'm.. going....t..to...die?"
