Like you, I once walked on the path of the living.
That time was long ago, and it had left me tired and beaten.
Existence was an annoyance.
However.
Unlike my fellow living - Â a path was laid out for me long before I was born.
I was to become something..
More.
I, was of the Firstborns.
Long gone and forgotten by thousands of generations.
Until now.
I had committed a crime.
One so heinous that I was to be put to death by my leaders.
Instead, I was given an option to become a subject of an experiment
Or die.
I accepted, hoping to cling to life as long as I could.
They’d later regret their own decision.
And I would relish in it.
They activated the shields, locking me in my cell.
Then - a dust-like powder was fed to me.
Unknowing of what it was, I had eaten it.
I felt amazing.
As time went on, I began to feel stronger, faster, whilst having near unlimited stamina.
Then the tumours began to form.
The pains began to set in.
Then, as fast as they had came - they had gone.
But then the hunger set in.
Everything started to blur together as if time itself was irrelevant.
Because - time is and will always be irrelevant to something that cannot die.
I was reborn in a single night.
The facility that had kept me captive for so long - became a tomb.
And remained as such for thousands upon thousands of years.
My spread was slowed by their defences, but it did not end.
They regretted all their actions up until that point.
Now, present day - things are different.
Ive found myself in a fledgling galaxy ripe for the picking.
My hunger needs to be sated.Â
And nothing can, or will stop us.
Not even you.
We became the Atrocity that was never meant to be made.
But nonetheless, we’re here to stay.
Whether you like it or not.
