Chapter 1:

The Beginning

Venomous


"This world of ours is struggling. To fully explain, I have to go back about 30 years ago.

One day, an unexplainable power arose out of others that laid dormant for many many decades. This power made others gain abilities the likes of what no one has ever seen. And it all started with a red string.

Anyone who has this power is somewhat immortal and the only way to fully kill them is to destroy their core, the red string that is located in different locations of their body but the most common is the heart. The powers these people nicknamed "Stringers" have differentiated between person to person but known abilities are flight, weapon making, and other abilities unknown to others. This has frightened the world and has caused stringers to be outcasts and treated as freaks who could commit mass murder whenever they pleased. This story is what happens next."

A young boy is seen walking home from school. It's cold and snow is falling slowly. He sees the road he usually takes is closed because of a medium-sized crater in the middle of the street.

He walks up to a construction worker. "Hey, what happened here?" He asks. "Ah, there was a crazy stringer here who messed this place up pretty good. be careful." The worker replies.

"Sure old man. I'll make sure to be on guard!" The kid responds. "Old Man!? Why you little... Who even are you?!" the worker questions. "I'm Seiji! Seiji Bushida!" He retorts.

And with that Seiji takes an alternate route that led into a staircase. While walking up the stairs he sees a shady-looking man in regular clothing walking down towards him.

"This guy looks really weird. I'm suspicious but it should be fine if that guy doesn't get near me." As they get closer to each other the man who had a hood over his head reveals his crazed smile and catches Seiji off guard. He tries to punch Seiji but Seiji manages to dodge and move backward.

"What the hell was that for!?" Seiji shouts. "I want to add you to my body count! You'll be my 100th kill, Then I'll finally be recognized!" the man shouts.

Seiji tries to run away but is grabbed by a long piece of string. "Where do you think you're going?! I have to tell you my name before you die! I am Akui! Don't forget that on your way down to hell!" He takes the wrapped-up Seiji and slams him down as hard as he can. A small crater is made and Seiji spits up blood as he hits the ground.

Seiji sits up from the ground to see Akui standing over him, ready to deliver the final blow. Seiji starts to think. "I'm going to die.. I was just enjoying my day like normal and now I'm going to die. I can't. I WON'T!"

Suddenly in a burst of light Seiji summons a sword and cuts Akui In his chest while he's distracted. "What!? I didn't know you were a string-" he's cut off by Seiji rushing into him at unbelievable speeds and slamming him onto the ground. Akui is then spun around and thrown into the sky far up where he looks at the skyline of the city.

On the ground, Seiji manifests a bow and arrow in his hands and aims it for Akui's head. He draws back the bowstring. "Damn it! Even if I die there'll still be others! I'll make sure you die even if I do!" Akui shouts. Seiji before releases the arrow has a golden fiery aura around him and he then yells with all his might. "Starlight... ARROW!

The arrow launches at high speed causing everything around Seiji to crumble from the speed of the arrow. The arrow is seen dashing towards Akui and just before it hits, Akui screams one last time. "DAMN IIIIIIT!"

The arrow pierces slightly into Akui's head before exploding and engulfing Akui in a massive golden explosion that could be seen from miles away.

The final shot is Seiji staring at the fireworks caused by his arrow as there is no trace of Akui left on this earth.
