Damian POV

I gained consciousness , confused . ' what happened ' I thought . I looked at my hands and was stunned to see them black as though they have been burned but they were healing rapidly and I wasn't feeling any pain .

I look up from my burned hand and in front of me , I was horrified and felt like puking . there were bones and green blood and pieces of flesh . the whole place was covered with green blood . the bones were still soaked with green blood . there were organs lying here and there .

" Damian " I look towards the sound and saw mother also covered In green blood looking scared to death ( no pun intended ) . then I remembered every thing . my eighth birthday , my training with death , my meeting with grandfather , him saying he wanted to me to be his new vessel , death being furious , death possessing my body to torture grand father . this means that the bones and that mess was what left of grandfather . death could have simply cut his lifeline as he had done with the assasions but no , he wanted to make grandfather suffer so he possessed my body as he couldn't do much in his current form and didn't allow grandfather to die , forbid him from dying as he tore his body and pulled out his organs and bones and taking pleasure. in his screams and-

Two hand settled themselves on my shoulders " don't think about it, little human " I heard death saying as he picked me from under my arms and held me against his chest , his hand pressing my face into his neck " don't think about it "

" get away from him , you monster ! " I heard my mother yelling as she attacked death . " stop , mother !" I yelled at her , luckily she stopped or death would have cut her lifeline .

" who are you ?" She asked , the Katana still in her hand .

Death tsked " pathetic mortal " he said and I had a feeling he was glaring at her

My mother frowned , thinking and then her eyes widened and she bowed

" my Lord " she said " why are you here and what do you want with my son ? " She asked bowing

" I'm here for him " death said stroking my hair " that's all you have to know "

" why did you kill my father " she asked looking at death , there was grief in her eyes .

" that pathetic excuse of a mortal that you call father tried to take what was mine " death said as he tightened his grip on me protectively " besides he wasn't even a human anymore . the Lazarus pit wasn't even made for humans . it was made for those who had the blood of gods running in his veins . the pit destroyed him completely " my mother's eyes widened at this information

“ so what'll we do now " I asked death and he turned to look at me . 

“ now I'll train you harder and will teach you magic "
