The Ballad of John Walker Episode:1 Part 1

(Fighting fire with fire is not always the best thing to do.)

„Come on you piece of shit get up, your mommy is waiting. Wait you realy don‘t mind if we borrow this. Look at his face, it looks like he‘s all fucked up. „
The man was beaten up badly, he was lying on the ground. That day he still was  a  person that believed in kindness of humanity. A few bullies stole his cross, that cross was all he believed in, he believed that god will bring divine punishment to those that oppose him.
But that never happened....
Every month he faced more and more serious injuries, his bones were always broken, his face always had scars. But his determination never faded away.
In the corridor:
„His name is John Walker, he is the son of the mayor. Why he is  a retard. My friend told me that he is insane. „
„Well I heard that his marks are very good, from what I have heard he has no talent in sports and art“
Those girls said it all, John never was well built because he always were injured, his hands were shaking all the time so he had no chances to draw everything correctly. He never reported his status to his own father, because he felt that his pain were necessary to follow the god‘s path.
John was tall and slim, he wore glasses, his hair were brown and his eyes were red. Everyone was making fun of him because he was with glasses and had red eyes. His mother died the day he was born. Life to him looked like a bag of problems.
In classroom:
„Why such a fool like you never talks to anyone? „
„I have my own reasons, teacher“
„What do you want to become“
„I want to become a priest of the Vatican“
„Throw your dreams away kid, there‘s no way to become a priest if you you look at people with that stare“
That was right, when angry teacher said  that sentence, John showed no expression on his face, he was cold like ice and his stare looked like of the man who is ready to kill someone to follow own path until the very end.
He wanted to have a power to bless people, a power that could save someone, a power that does only good things and is superior to evil. But does such a power exist?
Then one fateful day came...
It took place in summer of 2012.
John finished his school today. He felt relieved that his school year is over and he is almost ready to start university. However he went to the park instead of going to the party. He prefered peaceful life more than the wild one.
The weather was nice with breeze. He was walking towards the sun, until he saw something unusual. Girl was sitting on  bench, she was hiding her face under umbrella. He came near her and decided to look under that umbrella.
She was crying, but her wet eyes looked beutiful to him, she was dressed in white trench coat. her  eyes were green and her face looked like a sun. At that moment he wasn\'t hesitating and looked her into her eyes
„Why you are crying, does something bother you madam“
„No it‘s nothing, I just was thinking of the rain“
„ I guess that it\'s special to you „
„................................ „
Suddenly girl became silent, but John still talked.
„ Tell me, what rain brought you, was it tragedy or was it happiness that you would never  never forget „
„Why do you want to know? „
„I am pretty intrested in you, that‘s all“
Girl threw her umbrella and white trench coat away. From that moment all the girl was dressed up were black trousers and white shirt.
Those sudden changes revealed her forms, in John‘s eyes she was a woman of his dreams. She had everything that he wants, she was busty and had sexy figure. On top of that she had passionate hair color it was red.
John realized that if he wants to hang out with this woman, he needs to throw his path of the priest. Otherwise he would never forgive himself. John was Catholic, so he had no right to live as Catholic priest and have a wife at the same time.
„So you realy want to hear my story“
„Yes, I want to know why rain made such a beutiful woman cry“
The wind has stopped. Birds began chirping.
„ It all began when I was six years old, my mother always kept me locked inside my room, no one outside knew the fact that I existed. There was a priest in my village that was famous exorcist. My mother was one of his subjects. „
Woman sighted, John‘s eyes looked sad.
„When I was still in my mother‘s belly, that priest examined my mother, when he finished his job he told the village people to kill the baby immediately. Our village was one of those villages, that had no right deny the words of the priest „
„ (Rex family always been accused for being heretics, it‘s no surprise that such a fate came to them) „
„That was what priest said. I was accused for being a demon that is going to cause this world many problems and deaths, but my mother managed to secure me until „that day“ „
She began to laugh softly, but John‘s intrest were getting more and more deeper
„ We lived in a mansion, it was big place with many kinds of rooms and expensive stuff, that day. It was raining. I decided to step outside, I saw children playing and laughing and decided to join them, but sadly when I went to the sandbox they were gone, it happened in an instant. „
„When I reaturned home I saw my mother collapsed, i touched her head, she was already dead, there was no blood on the floor, in fact there was no blood at all, but there was a shadow, a huge terrifying shadow“
„And that shadow started to whisper in my ear“
„ (A mere human cannot fulfill a single promise, mankind has lost it‘s potential to live, little girl will you become one of us or you will be against us, a flow of time will show....)
„I was so afraid and ran away from my home“
„I knew nothing about my mother until she died, she only brough me food so I never really had chance to speak to her“
„That was why I went away, I was scared of that demon, so I went to the church, local priest seemed to be a kind person and he gave me a new home and life „
„All I am searching now is that priest who cursed me, if I find him then I will have a clue who was that demon that was awakened during my first steps outside“
She smiled
„What kind of a priest wants kill a human, he must be a filthy scum“
Girl responded
„It‘s a nice town isn‘t“
„Not it‘s not, it only brought me unlimited sadness“
„Then you know nothing of life“
„Where are you from? „
„I don‘t know, I forgot my past the day I was born again“
„When was it? „
„................................. „
„That make us the same I know not a single damn thing about myself. I just wanna to get away from it „
„ Then free yourself, start a new life and do whatever you want, whatever comes to your mind“
„No, there‘s still many things that are left unfinished“
„Like what? „
„There‘s something deep inside my heart that I really want“
„I guess that it‘s a secret“
„No it‘s just an ambition. That‘s gonna curse me“
„You have ambitions, but you don‘t have dreams“
She started to laugh softly
„ Don‘t let the demon take over you, just pretend that it doesn\'t exist and he will be gone forever. That‘s what I learned when I started school“
„But how do you  make him dissapear if he still exists“
„................................................... „
„You seem to be a person with intresting fate, I wonder if we meet again.
„ As long as I can remember rain always been in my heart, girl in white“
John was looking away for a moment, then he noticed something.
„ Ah, She‘s gone,. I guess that I have to spent this day on a park all by myself as usual“

(Things That I wanna forget)

Then the evening came, and few druggies came near him. Their leader started his talk:
„Are you John Walker? „
„What do you want low-life scum“
„What do we want, We fuckin want you dead you motherfucker“
„What are your reasons tough guy“
„We just think that you are ugly, and you are spoiling our mood. Fucker why are you walking in this park every Sunday, you annoy us so much“
John saw those people before, they always came to the park every evening. But he still never understood them. They always were drinking and using drugs. In John‘s eyes they been retards.
„Punch me if you want, you will die soon anyways, if you want to spend your next week in detention center, do it right away“
Group shouted:
„Kill him! „
„We Want Him Dead!! „
„Tear his limbs off Marty!!! „
John looked at them with that scary stare he always kept hidden.
„So you must be Marty I assume“
„And you must be my ass motherfucker“
Marty pulled out his knife of  his own pocket. It was all bloody and looked like a butcher‘s knife..
„I won‘t die there. Not this time“
„Why, we all know the legend of this momma‘s boy??? „
„Don‘t insult my mother you low-life junkie“
„Huh..... „
„Today is different, I‘ll kill you all. You don‘t deserve a life of a human, you are sinners that must be sent straight to hell“
„Are you high or something? „
Then Suddenly a bullet started to fly at the speed of light. That bullet hit Marty‘s face. John pulled back.
Marty yelled:
„What the fuck, my fucking nose? „
The man was walking towards the group, he was well built and looked like  a mobster. He was tall, and his hair was black and his eyes were green. He pointed gun at John.
„Hey kid, will you become a man, or you will die right here, it‘s up for you to decide? „
„................................................. „
„Your life depends on the answer“
John knew that he will loose everything, but when he realized what fate awaits him, he felt at ease, when he relized that he has to throw everything away.
„I don‘t know what you are, but I know one thing for sure. I don‘t wanna die by the hands of those scum „
„Well said, here‘s your weapon, treasure it and use it well“
It was a dagger, a golden dagger. Why it was golden John never didn\'t know
„Are you from mafia? „
„Do you think that a great man like me is a piece of shit? „
„............................................... „
„Prove, that your life is worth to be saved. Kill them all with a single dagger. And you will become one of us“
John never really wanted to become a priest. All he ever wanted was to get rid of all evil in this world. He tough that becoming a priest is a only way until he found this.
„Die!!! „
John rushed in and stabbed them one by one . It was easy for him, his inner anger was finally exposed. It was bloody, etire park was stained with blood, all thing that were precious for him turned into hell.
„How does it feel to kill a man? „
„I feel like a shit, and  I am crying, from now on I am one of these scums now, but I feel no mercy for them. If there‘s only one scum left on this earth then it‘s done right? „
„Absolutely correct, will you become my teacher‘s student?
Then John heard a loud voice. A voice that could reach heavens:
„What have you done my son“
John fell on the grass unconscious.
