Bind to Earth Alpha

Pain means hurt

Darkness slowly unfolded from his view, as light began to crawl back in he blinked to keep the progress going when he had fully recovered he shot up air filling his lungs. There was no sign of pain around his body nevertheless, he didn't lower his guard. He stepped down and his feet hit the wooden floor. He almost jumped back. It was a weird feeling, he looked down at the rug-covered floor. It was soft fluffy and it reminded him of his pet back in the other world. He slowly stepped down. 

The fabric under his bare foot was strange, he wanted to touch it so badly and be curious as to why human homes were so small, or why they used small chandeliers, so many questions about the giant sphere sitting in the sky, the different colored sky. But he had better things to do like escaping those freaks who want to keep him in by force. 

He looked down at his bare chest and could only grow angry at the fact they touched him without his permission, at least they left him in his traditional pants. His birthmark was exposed; he had to remove his hairs from the braids so they fall, like cotton on his pale chest covering the mark. He looked around for his robe quietly. The Sado freak could hear if he made any loud sound and she would come for him, but her loud voice won't allow her ears to hear. He could hear them clearly in the sitting room, discussing how to tame the child. 

They all needed punishments and he couldn't wait to feed on them after forcing them to beg at his feet. It was a matter of time before his punishment would be over. 

He gave up after finding a magazine instead with a blizzard creature on it, it was like a scroll to him but smooth, and had a smell that sickened him. In the magazine, he saw images of people, Man, Woman? He read with curiosity, unable to explain how he could understand their language. Maybe it had to do with the old fools. 

He saw their clothing, which was far from what Sado and Phineas wore. He looked around where he had seen a wooden closet, he walked quietly toward it and reached for a dark cloth. He glanced at the picture and it looked similar to the MAN dressing. He slipped it on and it felt weird on his skin, it was a black turtleneck sweater. He found it too heavy and tight with no touch, it was too simple.

He grabbed a pair of jeans pant, matching the color of his shirt he tripped into after he had tripped out of his cloth, and that was equally tight. His hair fell on the black of the shirt making it attractive. He never had a second thought about his long hair, way too weird, and his different color iris. 

He walked to the window as the only exit left, how low on behalf of a king. He grabbed the magazine and made a run for it, jumping down the window and darting towards the fence as fast as he could, which was still fast for a human, he jumped over the fence bursting out onto the road, running towards freedom. 

Sado heard the faint thud, like that of a heavyweight coming against the floor, in a sneaky attempt. She had to put a pause in the middle of her loud storytelling that Phineas and Marcus were getting fade up with. 

She shifted to her full wolf running the stairs on her fours and unlocking his door only to find the room empty with no traces of him. She panicked, shifting back to her human. 

She raced back to the living room. "GUYS!" She shouted and they both looked up at her with a similar expression describing their boredom. 

Marcus went first. "What?" 

Sado gathered her breath as she was not planning to stop midway in her story. "The kid made a run for it." She said, 

"What kid? What run?" Marcus bolted to his feet. 

"Um, you know the white-haired boy you brought in, he sneaked out, and you know it is night, the rogues come out as punk and human traffickers are roaming about, thieves and Hickman too." 

"Damn it!" Marcus growled. "Go get him Phineas and you better get to him fast! If anything happens to him we're all screwed." He yelled out. 

Phineas sat up with an annoyed look, he shifted to a bat and flew through the window. To bring back the ignorant and rebellious boy. 

Oxias paused as a huge lorry honked past him, it almost carried his soul along. He backed off from the road darting to another direction, everything was foreign, he saw silhouettes who wouldn't stop laughing, talking, and walking around forming a crowd, they dressed like the people in the magazine and they spoke like the others. He slipped in their mist still running, when he had bumped into one of the silhouettes, they called him BOY the tone was harsh, dominant and threatening, he dare not stop he kept running till he found himself trapped between two walls and a narrow road, where huge cans stink and smell rot. 

He heard a weird sound, like a child's cry but it was bizarre, it couldn't be a child, it had strong vocals, he got to the far end when a wall prevented his bare feet from running any further. 

"Argh!" He growled to himself and he banged his fist on the wall. Pain shot through his body from the small strike. 

He turned around to leave but much to his unpleasant surprise two Men as he had learned in the magazine stood towering over him, they were just as tall as Marcus was and they smelled horrible, their breath burnt his lungs each time he had to inhale. 

"A clown? What is this? We're not on Halloween, why are you dressed as a witch kid?" One of them asked, his voice was rough and threatening. 

Oxias could only watch them while balling his fist and getting ready for the fight. He clutched his magazine with the other hand.

"What do you have there? A magazine? Barefoot, you must be a runaway." The shorter man smirked. 

He reached out to touch him but Oxias moved aside. "Back off!" He yelled while breathing heavily. He wanted to kill them so badly but without his powers and super strength he was useless, nothing but a defenseless child, about to meet human destiny. 

"What a fierce boy." The taller man laughed as he took dangerous steps closer. "He's got a fine face." The short man added. 

"How about we look at him closer and see how functional he is?" The other man said. 

The shorter man grabbed his shirt pulling roughly on it like he was trying to reap the fabric off his body, this sent panic through his body and he threw his balled fist on the man's face hard enough to make him scream. The taller man turned to his friend while Oxias tried to escape but he was thrown to the floor by a strong grip pulling on his hair, he hissed while clenching his jaw. 

"Son of a b***h!" The man yelled out while raising his booted foot to stomp on him, his nerves screamed pain and so did his voice. He shrieked from the hit, and many more then followed, he felt something inside him snap. It hurt, everything did. Particularly breathing. He coughed as it was all held up in his throat the men didn't stop beating down on him as hard and as furious as they could while yelling profanities. 

He curled and raised his hands above his face. A warm liquid trickled down his nostrils and his stomach knotted. 

"Where is that f*****g voice of yours?!" The shorter man pulled his hair harshly and shook him violently. 

"s**t. He has white hair and this long like what the f**k is he? Where did he come from?" The taller man asked?

"I don't give a damn. He would sell that's for sure." 

"Hey, where do you come from?" The taller man asked. Oxias coughed out blood and breath harder, he needed to escape. 

"He asked you a f*****g question!" The shorter man slammed his boot on his chest multiple times and he screamed out in pain. 

That was it, he was doomed, the men were stronger than him and there was no way the elders would suddenly break his bracelet and allow him to kill those senseless bastards In the worst way possible, which after he would feed on their souls. 

The kick does not cease after a while but the infliction was already done. Oxias could barely move. His lungs felt like they had daggers in them; it jabbed him each time he took a breath. 

"We'll sell him big, he is a kind of albino. I don't know, or something paranormal, like a mermaid." The shorter man laughed. 

He grabbed a hand full of Oxias's hair and was about to pull it when a whiz from nowhere resulted in a knee colliding with his neck, snapping his bones and killing him in the process. 

Phineas landed softly on his feet with the edge of his beetle wings coat flapping. He had a deadly look on, his gray eyes that were the perfect picture of cold glanced at the dead man who was bleeding from the mouth. 

"So soft." He cracked his neck and his look fell on the taller man who looked beyond horrified. His eyes were popping out from his head as he tried to scramble away. 

Phineas made a step that was too fast for the human eye to capture and just like that he reaped the man's heart and licked his bloody hand, before taking off his bloody gloves and picking Oxias who grunted in pain as his body moved. 

"Don't worry I'll clean the mess up before you have the time to remember." He said as he flew off. 

Oxias desperately wanted to protest but the words won't just come out and the pain was killing. 

Phineas landed in the house with a glass roof. Letting Oxias down gently. He fumbled to remain on his feet as he gripped his hurting ribs. 

"OH, MINE!" Sado screamed as she hurried to him. 

He was in the worst state ever, a bleeding nose and a bruised face, at least those were visible, he coughed and all she saw was more blood. She froze at the sight. 

"What f*****g got into your mind?! Running away like that?! What the f**k is wrong with you?! Here is not your empire! Here is real and here is insecure! What were you thinking? You'll never survive out here all by yourself, god damn it!" Marcus boomed, he was already on thin ice with the boy and now he was on the edge, the boy wouldn't understand, that was the problem with royalty, and he was not going to risk failing the elders because of him. 

Oxias clenched his fist and his body shook lightly. His brain was screaming stress and confusion. It was not supposed to be so. 

"That's enough Marcus. Can't you see he needs treatment?" Sado slammed him as she approached the boy. 

"STAY AWAY FROM ME!" Oxias fired with a loud but shaky voice and she froze.
