SEP1A

The future of mankind rests in Noe's hands. Having faced brutal bullying throughout his life, Noe is sent to a boarding school where his luck takes a sudden turn for the fantastical.

Planet Earth, 2075. Humanity is hanging by a thread after World War Three rendered the globe inhabitable.

With the introduction of angels, demons and realms unknown, will Noe play a hand in saving humanity or let the humans that mistreated him burn beneath his flames? To destroy the World or save it? That is the question.

Excerpt:

Like a demon of destruction, Noe snaps.

His vision blurs and dissipates, scattered like glass beads across cement.

When he comes to, he is no longer watching the scene but is at its epicenter, soaking in a pool of purple blood, maroon cadavers strewn across the ground. Every centimeter of the hall is covered in gore - except for Mr. Henderson, whose eyes, wide-blown in astonishment... and horror, are captivated by Noe's neck.

Looking down at himself, Noe sees thousands of black feathers have sprouted out from his own flesh. They tingle at the root and shudder as he breathes, as if leaves clinging to a tree in winter. Blood coats his every morsel.

Springing his now grey fingertips onto his neck, Noe perceives what feels like the head of a purple hyacinth wrapped around it, its ribbon-like strands interlocking and jetting as if growing from his voice box.

Touching his face, porcelain-smooth, painted by blood, marble skin appears unbreakable.

It was all for first love.

Devil Child

Watching Noe's soul seep from his eyes as Noe ponders the meaning of the World's most recent biological curveball, Daniel adds his two cents into Noe's contemplation, "Nature is fighting back. Humans destroyed nature beyond repair and now it's getting its recompense."

A cool wind breezes through Noe's hair. As the realm's clouds pass by, Noe blinks back to reality and helplessly looks to Daniel, "The children, they're probably gone by now, aren't they?"

"We should get back to Eastville," Noe sighs in trepidation. He cannot blame Daniel for saving his life. Even if Noe wished to, for Noe to berate Daniel is beyond his rational capabilities. If Noee cannot be mad at Daniel, or cry in cause of his own sadness, who can Noe curse and damn to hell? Is mother nature truly to blame? Then the Omniscient for creating such a planet?

Walking forward, the evil glint in Daniel's eyes fades as he takes Noe's hand in his.
