Amos' First Dark-Gloom!

Amos just received his tenth torment session and was fatigued. He breathed heavily as he thought about the many horrible things they did to him. He was unsure about the reason behind their abuse, but he knew that they were all idly evil.

He also thought about the boy who was previously speaking to him — Amos never heard from him since his third day of torment.

Amos was compelled to consume the flesh of human beings. It was the worst thing he was ever forced to do — Though he was no longer of that race, he nevertheless considered it as crystallized cannibalism.

All this torture, for nothing? What did I do wrong? Warm tears ran down his cheeks. Please! Just let me go. Kill me. Something is happening to me. I need help. Somebody, anybody, save me. Xui Zang, Snow, Denzel, Rubin — somebody help me.

He cried until there were no more tears left to cry. It was utterly the most terrible thing he had experienced and something that could not escape his mind — it was stuck to him — Stuck to him like chewing-gum that got stuck in his hair — Chewing gum that got there and could not come off.

He wanted to die, again. His childhood friend, suicidal thoughts, paid him a visit once more. Just like in the past, he eagerly wanted to die — even if it meant killing himself.

They burnt him with boiling water, cut off his fingers and toes, cut him with knives, burnt him with fire, impaled him with weapons, thrashed him with whips, and even fed him poison. Then, they healed him and repeated the process. Pain started to become less intimidating for him, after every torment session, he felt as if he was losing his mind. And the daily injections they gave him still remained mysterious.

It was the catalyst for Amos' terrible mental health.

Then suddenly someone opened the door. It was Liang Chu.

He smiled, "That's the lucky guy I wanted to see — there you are."

Amos unsentimentally raised his head and looked at Liang. Upon looking at Amos' eyes, one could see nothing but the lack of emotion. He couldn't feel pain, happiness, anger nor embarrassment. He felt nothing — nothing but emptiness.

The day prior to the current date, something that was cunningly plotted finally transpired. While being tortured Amos loosed his sense of self. The people who tortured him wanted this to happen, Suzy wanted it to happen, it was heavily intentional.

Liang walked up to him, "Amos, I am very proud of you. You know what happened yesterday?"

Amos didn't reply.

"You bloomed. Yes, you bloomed! Your innermost emotions are gone. Your mind opened out and released everything. While you were being tortured you loosed your sense of self, we figured that out when you remained silent after being burnt by blazing fire."

Amos didn't say anything.

"Now that you've dark bloomed, your torment will finally be over."

Liang Chu removed the chains and other restraints from Amos' body.

Amos then fell. Like a baby, lacking the ability to walk. He had been standing for ten long days. And during those days, his numb legs screamed as that baby would.

"Let's go Amos, you can do it, get up."

Amos stood up and rocked side to side, mildly unable to stand still.

"That's it, you got it."

He then took a few steps and fell back to the floor.

***

After Liang taught Amos to walk, he took him out of the torment room and he was greeted by a rather strange sight.

Before him was a patient group of people seemingly waiting for him to depart the room. These people weren't natural, they all had particular traits that were elaborately added to their mildly obscure monstrosity.

"He's a bit short, isn't he?"

"An elf?"

"He doesn't look like a monster to me."

"He's weird."

"He's ugly."

"He looks like a dwarf."

Although they were all quiet, Amos heard what they were saying about him — but their insulting words did not add anything to his emptiness.

Liang Chu held him by his shoulder, "Amos, team, team, Amos."

Everyone remained silent.

"Amos, the team all had to work very hard to get on the team — it was a very laborious task, and we hope to see you on the team too."

Then suddenly everyone quickly went to their knees and bowed their heads. Amos idly stood there looking down at the people.

He then smelt a very strong scent, an analogously intimate scent. As he turned around he saw Suzy, the female version of the devil, approaching the group.

Suzy was half-naked but well dressed. She wore nothing but black and green which greatly complemented her black hair with green edges. One of her servants, namely Chizuko, even called her sexy (, though he did not openly tell her this).

"So disrespectful." murmured someone from the group.

"He hasn't bowed up to this very moment, " quietly added another.

Suzy then stopped, "Amos, you're out of your torment room, how does it feel?"

Amos blankly stared at her.

"So rude! He's not answering her, " inaudibly said, someone.

Suzy then said, "Group, you can stand."

They all stood.

The shortest boy in the group then looked at Amos and said, "You rotten old bastard, absolutely no respect. Give me one reason why I should not obliterate your fuh-

"Chizuko!" shouted Suzy.

He then folded his arms and became silently angry.

Suzy then, along the red carpet, walked past Amos and sat on her black obsidian and emerald green throne. She folded her legs to respect her body (which made Chizuko sad).

"Aww, man!" said Chizuko.

"What's it, Chi?" asked Liang Chu.

He didn't answer.

Chizuko was a young boy with white hair and black edges. He wore fashionable clothing (, perhaps to impress Suzy) and he had his quiver held to his back which accommodated his arrows.

A servant then formally walked up to his queen, Suzy, with a drink tray, and offered her a robust drink.

She held the wine-glass between her index and middle finger and adjusted her hand to her own comfort.

She then brought the glass to her shiny lips and consumed the well-made beverage. The drink was rose-red and for Amos, it gave off an extremely fresh scent. As expected, it was conspicuously none other than the fresh blood of a human being.

As she consumed it, there was a very pleasurable expression on her arrogant face, She drank the entire cup of blood in merely five-seconds and she licked her lips — not wasting a single drop of blood.

She then returned the empty wine-glass to her servant to carry out to the kitchen.

Because she was just a Witch, Amos was nothing but confused because he noticed that she had no reason as to why she needed to consume human blood, or did she?

As Suzy gawked at Amos, it was awkwardly quiet. She then broke the silence,

"Amos, my dear, you have been promoted from my torture slave into my royal servant. You oddly took ten days to dark bloom — others usually take less than five days to do so."

She deliberately unfolded her legs and got on her feet, "Liang, show Amos around his new place of settlement, there are many areas to cover, I have matters to attend to."

She then ostentatiously departed the room, with her butt-cheeks bobbing up and down (which mesmerized Chizuko).

"Follow me!" ordered Liang Chu.

Amos pursued Liang, and the others strangely followed.

Chizuko then snapped back into reality after Suzy left and followed the group.

They walked down a very lengthy hall with a long red carpet continuously placed on the hallway floor. As they walked down the hallway, there were multiple doors to rooms on their right and left. It was a very huge castle — The Castle of Chaos.

Then Amos was taken to the last door in the hall, a door of anomalous variance. The door-handle was green, unlike the others, and the door number was oddly ' X'. Inside of the room was both a robustly built arena and a training area.

"This is where you would be spending most of your time here — The training room." presented Liang Chu.

The others entered the room.

Liang suspiciously glanced at the group, "Why are you all here? Are there more than one Liangs in this organisation?"

They maliciously stayed silent.

"If you don't flee in--

"We are here for the boy!" shouted a girl from the group of nine — Nine incredibly obscured monstrosities.

The girl looked like an ordinary figure, except that she had bat-like black wings, red gleaming eyes and long black nails. Her small chest was slightly raised and her hair reached her youthful breasts. Her name was Nataly Namero, and she was responsible for guarding her queen's hidden treasure, located in a deep cave.

Liang looked at her, "Shouldn't you be hanging from the cave ceiling or something?"

"Shut up," she snarled, "I'm on a break — Natan is taking care of that for me."

"Can you give us some privacy please?" asked Liang Chu.

"What are you going to do to him?" replied Han-Geol, with his hands on his smooth chin.

He was a tall man with very long legs that were covered up with his very tight shiny fashionable black pants, which complemented his shiny black jacket. He then put saliva on his hands and brushed back his well kept black hair.

He had a tattoo of a serpent on his neck and his black neck-choker was so tight that it made him look as if he was being strangled.

He then walked up to Amos, crouched and sniffed his neck. Amos noticed that his red eyes were very intimidating, his smooth skin looked pale and his voice was rather serene for his apparel.

As Amos looked at him as he spoke, he also noticed enormous fangs – At that moment, Amos knew that he was irrefutably a blood-thirsty Vampire.

"I can't wait to get a bite from your bloodstream!" Shouted Han-Geol, widely opening his mouth.

Liang then grabbed Amos away from the group, "Stay back Amos, " He pushed him aside.

Han-Geol put his hands in his pocket, "Come on, Liang, just give us a bite — or you'll have to fight us all, nine on one and a half."

Liang looked at the group.

"We're just in it to test his strength." simultaneously said the group.

Han-Geol cunningly smiled, "If we win, we get to taste him!"

Liang's eyes started to glow and he maliciously looked at his group of comrades, "A battle, " he smirked, "okay, I promise not to break you too much!"
