Chapter 6. First encounter. (V)

As written in the newspaper, the evening before, in the dead of the night, Masen broke into the luxurious home of his family members. While they were sleeping, he murdered his sister with a nail to her head.

The surprising and familiar compression sound woke up the rest of his family. When they got to the room, they found him and her.

His mother's screamed, despite the distance of their large and spacious house from their neighbors in the prestigious neighborhood where they were living in, the scream was clearly heard all over.

Masen chased after them, in a wild frenzy, he jumped on his older brother. They wrestled each other, as they used to do when they were little kids, to the background of their mother's horror screams.

In the struggle, Masen's nails fell to the floor from his right hand which held a handful of them. He threw his brothers back, picking one of them up and shooting it in his direction. The nail missed his body, grazing the shoulder of his brother's left hand. The blood from his shoulder vein started flying everywhere.

Masen jumped on his brother and pinned him against the wall of the house made of luxurious wood.

His mother wailed around them, trying to pull Masen off his brother but with no use. All the physical work he did together with his late father over the years made him stronger, far beyond his older brother's and mother's strength.

Leaning against the wall, Masen picked up another pair of nails and nailed his brother's hand to it. Immediately after, when both of his hands overcome the one of his brother, he nailed the other one. The nail was stuck with such a brute force that there was no way to get out.

He looked into his brother's eyes, and with an angry but complete look, he picked up a nail to fasten one last time.

In the center of his head.

Blood flew everywhere. His mother, covered in the blood of her children, crying and suffocating, ran screaming with the rest of her strength into the dark neighborhood street. Fortunately for her, the struggle bought her enough time for the arrival of the city policemen who were called by their neighbors.

Following her, Masen went out into the street, and in front of the police, spread his hands wide. His Energia weapon in his right hand, and a handful of long nails he picked up from the floor, in his other hand.

The police aggressively yelled at him to put down his weapon. When he realized that the journey had come to an end, he dropped his weapon and his nails, with a broad smile. Without resistance, he was arrested by the police.

His trial was covered in the surrounding cities. It is not that every day one hears of a murderer who came from the upper class who which will be discussed to be sent to "Even".

In his trial, Masen claimed that he was not going to give up. He wasn't going to surrender. "At the end of the day, I had the upper hand." he said with a malicious smile.

"Is this what the upper hand looks like?" asked himself the figure in the hoody as he sat on the roof of a dark building. "Am I guilty of this?" it wondered to itself.

At the end of the trial, it was decided. Masen will be sent to "Even" on the next ship that leaves "Olam", the capital city.

"Certain death." claimed with a chuckle one of the reporters who reviewed the matter. "He won't survive there for one day. It's doubtful that he'll even survive the ship." Another reporter confirmed.
