Cubix
It was a calm, cool night in a moderately big park. The trees were tall, the grass was thick, and the smell of blood was in the air. There were only a few men and woman walking through the park this late, on a moonlight stroll and, unfortunately for them, it would be their last. There was something else in this park. Something brutal and apethitic to the safety of these lowly creatures.
"Honestly," A simple wave of his hand, and the sidewalk cracked and sent a mess of splinters into their bodies causing them to fall over, on their sides. The two of them fell flat, on their bellies, their heads were beaten and stabbed by chunks of rocks that lodged deep in their skulls that they were dead instantly. There were more though. Cubix hadn't forgot about the others that scattered behind a tree. He could feel their fear, taste their anxiety, and hear their trembling. Motioning his hand in their direction, the very grass the individuals stood on shot up, like blades, through their bodies skewering them and throwing blood up the very tree they stood next too.
"Only five...I guess that is enough," He figured, walking over to that tree that the few humans had been hiding behind. The demon placed his hand on the tree, looking at their mangled bodies that drained on the grass. So easy to kill. It almost felt like a waste of time to even spend the effort killing them. It was like making an effort to stomp on an ant or getting up to grab a fly swatter for a fly. For something so small, so insignificant he had to actually throw about his power to end them quick and in a way that wouldn't make too much of a mess.
A cry interrupted the demon's thoughts and he looked up, slightly, at the stroller that the two humans had been pushing along before the demon appeared. He walked over too it, hearing the insufferable noise. It was so pitiful. Such a waste of air and space and it would grow, with time, to become nothing more than the arrogant bugs that its own kin would promote it to be. Cubix, as the demon was known by some, reached into the stroller, a fair grip on the neck of the infant and, with a light throw, tossed it high into the air. It's screams pierced the quiet night, causing a slight interest to spark up in Cubix. What would it sound like if he threw them more often? Maybe...He'd keep them alive a little longer next time.
Cubix would bend down, looking at the parents who lost the very thing they died to protect. They were weak, thus their failure, and their lives had been snuffed out only because Cubix had decided it was their time to die. He had the power, the right, to make that choice and he did.
"I'll be taking your souls," He stated, about to tear their souls from them. Not only had they suffered in life, but they would forever suffer thereafter. Never to know peace and to drown in suffering...It was a reward if anything. To be apart of Cubix, as he ate them, should be everything they would hope for. They were cattle and it was now time for these impossibly small creatures to serve the purpose that they were born for. Really though, Cubix didn't need 5. One or two was more than enough. However, should any come within his range, they would die as well. Why? Simply speaking, Cubix wanted to indulge himself on the suffering on these unimportant creatures at an attempt to amuse himself. That was the only reason and it was more of a reason than he would ever need.
