Manor Black (3)

Before, Emilia could even speak, No One instantly killed her by driving his hand to her head with so much force it went pierced through it. Standing there not even being able to process a single thought, Edward rushed towards No One with his fist aiming towards his face.

"What the hell was that for?" His voice dripping with rage and a vein on his forehead just about close to popping.

Feeling intense euphoric pleasure, No One grabbed on to the coat's collar and slammed Edward's face to the wall. Grinning, he kicked Edward's stomach sending him through the wall and out into the void. But in an instant was grabbed the house by massive black tentacles and back into the attic where No One grabs Edward's collar and punches Edward towards the ground.

"And you're supposed to be the Hanged King," No One mocked, while Edward bloodied and bruised weakly raised his head to look at No One.

"Where the hell did you hear that?" he angrily asked.

Not answering his question, No One merely chuckled before kicking Edward towards the entrance of the attic causing him to fall through it. No One jumped down and was ready kick Edward once again, but got countered with a burning ball of energy towards his face.

Edward slowly stood up before engulfing both his hands into the flaming crimson aura. No One's twisted grin still stood the same before his back protrudes from four tentacles black as ink.

Both rush towards each other, bombarding each other with punches and tentacles from No One. Each attack being countered by Edward as well as No One, not a single attack managed to reach both of them. Quickly, Edward took his revolver out and shot at No One point blank in the face 5 times. All his bullets connecting towards No One's face and immediately exploding, burning they're face.

No One laughed it off before stabbing Edward with his tentacles through his torso which pierced through it. No One quickly attacked again with a punch towards his face causing Edward to get more annoyed which made him grab No One's tentacles burning it.

No One pulled his tentacles back, but in the process brought Edward as well and was met with burning fist towards they're chest piercing through it.

"You're one annoying piece of shit!" Edward cursed, before trying to grab No One's ink-like heart.

But as he tried to pull his left arm out, No One's chest closed in and turned into a mouth with razor sharp teeth biting on to Edward's hand.

Grunting in pain Edward tries to pull his arm out but to no aveil. Using this chance, No One grabbed Edward's throat and punched through his torso grabbing his heart and crushing it.

"Fu-..." trying to curse Edward was cut off and fell to the ground, his left arm absorbed into No One's body.

His body seemingly lifeless was now absorbed of what remaining energy he had left. No One after all of this laughs out loud. His maniac laughter echoed throughout the sentient home.

A few hours earlier, in a hotel room, Kieran is seen sweating frantically while punching the cracked wall covered in his own blood.

He gritted his teeth with so much anger as he punched the wall while thinking of Edward. Before seeing visions of him being dead causing him to punch the wall once more thinking of it as him trying to taunt him.

After a few minutes pass he finally broke from his illusion of a vision before passing out on his back towards the bed.

In his mind, he sees the dead body of Edward being impaled by a black inky tentacle, and in front of him stood No One.

 The area surrounding them being the literal void, the ground made of an ink-like substance, black dead trees covered in the same ink like substance were spread across the ground.

To Kieran this was simply a dream, but somewhere in his heart he knew something was wrong and the reason he felt this way. It wasn't because of the literal nightmare of a creature in front of him or the literal dream world he stood, but because Edward layed there dead and he knew far too well that he could never die easily.

So why was he dead in his dream? Was it because he hated him? Was it because he was far stronger then him? He knew himself that it wasn't because of these reasons, and that somewhere Edward is dead.

"No, no, no, no!" he screamed before waking back up in the bed of his hotel room.

He could still feel the eerie cruel smile of No One and their manic eyes. Those twisted hands that were shaped like claws, and their twisting sharp fingers. Everything about that dream was wrong to Kieran, and he knew very well that it wasn't just a dream but a reality.

Somewhere, Edward is dead, and that is a fact that Kieran stoodby. With the dream he witnessed he grabbed his blue jacket and zipped it up before walking out of the hotel room.

He hated Edward, but he needed to fight him before he finally died and he wasn't about to just let him die that easily. Even if he was already dead he would find every way to bring him back just so they could find once again.

Walking down the hallway, passing Leila and confused. Leila turned around tapping his shoulder.

"Now, where is the great Moby Dick going?" she giggled with closed eyes.

 Afraid of getting caught he simply ignored Leila, continuing his walk down the hallway.

Whoosh!

With the snap of a finger, Leila stood behind Kieran with her scythe aimed towards his neck. Her eyes wide open with same manic eyes, and her smile cold and wide like the usual.

"You're not getting away without answering." she asked, her tone mixed with a giggle but malicious intent.

The lights flickered in and out as her eyes moved towards his left hand. She could see that his left hand was surrounded by electricity and water. She giggled before letting go of the scythe and, walked away.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Kieran walked into the elevator and pressed the ground floor button as he prepared to look for Edward.

Back in the sentient mansion, No One walked around the manor while looking around the different decor before entering the living room as an idea entered they're mind.

They layed clean white plates on the table, spoons, knives, and forks, table clothes, wine glasses, and finally they prepared the food. The food were made of the different flesh of the people they have killed in the manor except for Edward wherein they placed his dead body in the patriarch's seat across the table.

Finally he grabbed the different souls trapped in a inky black cage wherein No One placed the different cages on the chairs before seating on on chair in front of Edward.

"Let the feast begin!" they gleefully exclaimed, using one of his tentacles they placed the heart of Edward back into where it was.

Slowly the hole stared healing, and soon the pale skin color of Edward's corpse returned back to normal. Yet he still stayed dead, while No One tilted they're head in confused before realizing they forgot to placed his soul back in.

Grabbing one of the cages hidden in they're body they opened it. Taking the soul out, a white orb with snowy particles around it, and the whispers of the soul echoing inside it. 

 No One shoved the soul back into Edward, returning his life once more causing Edward to open his eyes in shock.

"What the fuck!" he cursed.
