12 In the lairs of Psycho (1/2)

In one of the deepest abyss of the universe, Lares arrived along with his soldiers. Over here even light was scarce. In this dark dwarf planet only he and his prisoners lived. After all he was only a soldier, not the ruler.

He dismissed his men, who transported back to their home planet Neos. Neos was previously ruled by a beautiful princess who died mysteriously.

As he entered the Hall, a howl could be heard. Lying on the centre of the empty room was a heavily bleeding man. One of his arms had been chopped and the fingers from the other hand were missing.

”Please! ”, he cried for mercy.

But mercy was not given easily here.

The corners of Lares' lips went upwards. ” My, my.... I really hurried to reach you in time.”

With that he took a razor from the plate full of cutting instruments. He dug the sharp razor on the wrist of the heavily bleeding man.

”Ahhhh!..... ”, he shrieked. ” Hmmmm....I am feeling relieved now.”

” Please! I beg you”, the man spoke again. ”I promise I will never do it again. Please let me go... I have family” he cried. His tears dripped and mixed with the bloodied cuts on his face.

Hearing this Lares' face showed a serious look. He looked at the sword in the middle of the room and sighed.

”Oh! Right! You had family. So I should really let you go” he declared.
