29 Chapter 24 - Malignan

Sunrises from the sky, birds are flying high, all the signs of morning arriving are appearing in front of Medusa's eye.

Seeing the empty streets from last night is getting crowded, the quiet places are filled with noise; however, the young boy that gives Medusa hope was nowhere to be found, last night was like a dream, mind-blowing but sad. The promise he gave was all just a dream. Geek? It's just a wonderland that Medusa made up to fulfill her lonely and desperate heart.

Medusa gets up from the bench and helplessly walk heading toward her broken home. All the wonderful thing he hopes last night shatters along with her sweet dream. As she walks among the crowded but lonely streets, the people that use to insults her whenever they see her is no longer doing the outrageous things anymore. Sadly, Medusa's mind is filled with hopeless and disappointment, therefore she did not notice anything different from the usual.

From way back on the street, a young boy gazing at the beautiful but unfortunate girl's back and puts up an uncomfortable smile, then disappears like he was never there in the first place.

The people are walking around in the street like they have no purpose whatsoever; their existence is just to make the town seem more realistic and believable. Moreover to the abnormal situation, some people's clothing is a bit different than the others, their clothing is colorful, dreamy, and full of hope. The town is filled with, negativities, foolishness, and natural disasters; there is no one in this town have the ability nor time to advance these little daily accessories in ages. In this town, every year near winter, the wild animal from the forest will come down from their territory to hunt these town people for food to survive through the winter. The town people have no knowledge of built tools to protect themselves. Therefore a large number of people would get murdered or captured by these wild beasts. That's the reason why the populations in this town are very little, regardless to the fact that these people have no moral standards to figure out who they can have sexual intercourse with and who they can not. In addition, these town people have no protection, so every time they have sex with another person, a baby will be coming to this filthy, evil world.

Unfortunately, Medusa didn't notice anything and walk straight into her house. Quietly and slowly, she is afraid like last time, if she ever makes a noise her parent will rush out of their room and beat her up with a good excuse.

She tiptoeing into her room, it is a small, broken down room next to the toilet that her parents never cleans. The horrible smell is always the scent of Medusa's room.

With a broken heart, Medusa drags herself to the pile of wheatgrass which she calls as the bed. Lying in her "bed", staring at the top of her room, wondering all the things that the boy name Poseidon promised. She doesn't know whether if his words are real or not, she even hesitates about the existence of this young boy.

"Pong!" A loud noise awakens the whole house.

"Dong! Dong! Dong!" Medusa's father rushes down from the second floor thinking it's Medusa.

"What the hell are you doing! You little sh*t! I swear I'm going to beat the hell out of you! Who do you think you are!" Medusa's father curses.

"Come here you little sh*t!" He runs down to the door thinking he is going to show Medusa what makes the roses red!

As soon as he reaches the first floor, he was dumbfounded! He sees three muscle man standing in front of the broken front door. These guys are armed with rifles that are left behind by their ancestors. Though that the town people don't have the knowledge to build strong weapons to hunt or protect themselves from the beats; however there is a very little amount of these weapon left in the hands of the people that their ancestors once possessed.

"What you called me?" One of the guys asks Medusa's father.

"Lit...Little...Sh*t…?" Medusa's father still did not recover from the 'surprise'.

"Bang!" A rifle goes off, then Medusa's father's leg immediately bleeds like the water flows down the rivulet.

"What?" Medusa's father's words triggered the guys, "I'm going to kill you!"

"No! No! No! I'm sorry! I'm stupid! It's my fault! Please...please...don't…kill me! Please!" Medusa's father immediately begs.

"...What is that smell?!" One of the three guys points out after a while.

The three guys walk around trying to figure out where is the smell coming from. Not too long of the search, the guy that shot Medusa's father see a puddle of unknown liquid on the floor. It's yellowish, and it is coming down from Medusa's crotch area.

"What! This guy pissed himself! HaHaHa!" After the guy pointed out what that smell is, all the guys laugh out loud like they hear the best joke in the world.

"You little sh*t! You piss yourself! What a joke!" Three guys contemptuously look at Medusa's father.

"What is happening in here? Is that Medusa?! Get that little b**ch out of here! I'm trying to get my bitty sleep!" Medusa's mom yells from the second floor.

"Who's yelling up there?!" A guy asks.

"It's...it's...my wife…" Medusa's father is on his knees because one of his legs can't stand the pain from the wound, and also he is scared.

"Wife?" Do you have a wife? HaHaHa!" The guys laugh at him again.

Medusa's father can a dictator in the house bossing everyone, and sometimes beats his wife and his child for fun. However, in front of absolute power, he is nothing but a little sh*t like he calls his daughter.

"Tell your wife come down here!" A guy said.

"Yes...Boss…" Medusa's father apple-polishes the guys,

"Come down here! You little c*nt!" When he talks to his family he immediately changes his attitude.

"What…" the woman seems scared of her husband.

"Come down here!" Medusa's father yells again, then turn around to the three guys and said, "she is coming! Give me a second!"

"Dong! Dong! Dong!" Medusa's mother then slowly walks down the stairs, have absolutely no idea of what is going to happen to her.
