Pain is a lone wolf
A wolf slightly different from the rest
His fur is rough and tangled
His paws are scratched
His fangs and claws are sharp
Dripping with blood
He snarls at anyone who nears him
And bares his fangs
Ravaging anyone who crosses his path
Whether friend or foe
No one is an exception
And his eyes are wide open
Glaring with bloodlust
No one dares venture to find him
The only evidence of his existance is the lone howl
The lone shriek
Crying for help
Pain looks something like a human. It’s got the basic shape, tall and lean, but it has not features. No eyes, nose, etc. It doesn’t have a skin color like ours, just a black mass that covers it all, rippling like a lake. It’s transparent, almost like a shadow. It talks, but not the way we do. When it opens its mouth, other painful memories come out and make the pain worse.
