The Demon Outside Of You

I awoke. "I'll kill them. I'll kill them. I'll kill them!", I raged, my hatred burned trying to let lose, my heart seared with the pain of betrayal but outside i was just cold. The emporror, the one who swore by his head that he would form an alliance with my tribe. My family. All I had to do was rid the world of all other natives. I had done as he had told. The corrupt emporror chose me as his champion and I return to find my home burned with nothing but a tall flag of the empire standing in place of our homes. I trudged through the grime and not long ended misfortune. My nose wrinkled at the smell of incinerated flesh. I walked to the caravan, to find two dead bodies, small. One was cut up in pieces and the others head cleanly sliced off. My children. I felt immense pain. My chest ached and my head felt light, all I could do was laugh. Laugh. After all this. I wanted him to die, I wanted to kill all his men, i wanted to kill all his 'loving' subject, I want to kill everyone. That was the last time ever thought anything, I had gone insane, my body and I were two people, yes I did feel what my body felt but I was a trapped soul and my body a bent up demon craving blood, my demon was unleashed.

I was but a mere spectator, unable to speak to the outside world, just a bystander. I had never used it in my life and had sworn not to but my demon walked forth to where my former tribe treasury was hidden, and in it the knife of gods. It walked forward and grabbed it. I saw a bright light. The next time I woke up, was next to the emporrors dead body, his childrens bodies. Laughter echoed in the chamber. My laughter.
