MY ONLY WISH ||

The force of his push was so strong I felt as if I was hit by a fast moving object which sent my soul falling into my body causing me to wake. At that time I didn't want to open my eyes because I was so scared hoping all what happened earlier was a dream so I could go back to my happy little life again but just before I opened my eyes, I heard someone who sounded like Mike saying "i think From the way he is shaking, he's surely having bad dreams" then i realized I am going to be living with the cruel reality of my lost for the rest of my life... tears started flowing from my closed eyes. Then Audrey who was amongst those my friends who came to see me came over and sat on the bed, called "Chris, can you hear me? It's Audrey.  I can't say I know how you feel right now because I've never lost anyone close to me before but I know it feels horrible but you see you have to be strong... " Those words brought back the dream I had about my dad just before I woke up causing me to open my eyes. Her face didn't look as bright as I usually saw it to be but I noticed she tried to smile though with tears in her eyes which made me smile too but just for few seconds.
I was weak hungry but couldn't eat even to drink water. I asked them to support me walk outside after a number of failed attempts to get up on my own. Got to the pallor, got a seat beside my father's secretary miss Jennifer who whispered to my ear that my Dad's corps had been taken to the hospital and all i did was cry then I heard him again saying be strong Christopher. I then wiped my tear and started thinking of what to do to those who kill my father. At that time it was already getting dark I realized my friends had gone but Audrey stayed, when I snapped out of the thoughts I asked "where's everyone" Audrey said "I'm still here", Jennifer told her to get going before she gets into trouble with her parents. She pecked me on the neck "be strong, I love you" walked out and Jennifer immediately tapped me and said some one's found Love, even this pimple on your head says it, we laughed...
That night, she asked me to go with her to her house but I refused that I will stay with my aunt and uncles so she too had to stay.
That night I couldn't sleep so I went to my room where Dad was killed. I looked around a little scared and my clock read 11:53pm, so i stood over the spot where his body laid and whispered softly " I wish I could killed all those who killed you Dad, I wish I had supernatural powers, i would kill them all before your burier. god of the dead, god of the dark world, I beg on you who has the power to take away lifes, grant MY ONLY WISH.... I will do whatever you want me to but give me the power to avenge my death"  then I immediately felt this strong urge to use the bathroom and i walked away not knowing what I did. When I opened the bathroom an image left the room and entered my body, I thought I was hallucinating then I didn't feel as to ease myself again. As I turned to the mirror to check on the pimple on my forehead, I Saw something else not me. The face was dark with glowing lines as if there's light inside the skin, the eyes flamy with dark lines inside.

I tried to open the door but the door handle got broken. The the image said "you invited me, your Only Wish have been granted, I'm here now, you have the power and you will do as I say hahahahaha" as it laughed, the mouth had liquid fire, I screamed as i break the mirror with the door handle, waking everyone. When they came, I lost my voice and passed out again. Through out the week I kept having nightmares about the Demon which seemed to me as a kind of a training Because the night breaking Sunday 26th, our neighbour's dog kept disturbing and I went out and ate it and the strangest thing is, I felt like I had nothing in my stomach.
The next morning, that's Sunday 27th Feb 2017 after everyone had gone to church except me(i refused to go), the voice in my head told me to go check the letter my father told me about so I went on inside the room and got out the letter from an old sport shoe  and the first line read.. "Christopher, if you are reading this letter, then I am Death, I'm sorry I left you this way, I know I brought up a man who can take care of his things without help..." then it went on to say that "Colonel Nathaniel(the man he told me ordered his boys to beat him up for not accepting His bribe) is responsible for my death. ..." I couldn't finish the last part of the letter because the spirit in me was already telling me to kill but I had to wait impatiently for the cover of darkness for the dark side of me to start operating.
That night, while everyone was sound asleep, I sneaked out and the demon inside of me somehow knew where all those related to the killing were every given time. I had to kill them one at a time so that they will live in fear.
What I did was to scare them with my new look, then burnt them slowly with my breath from their legs or hands and then set the house, car  or bike on fire whatever they were in or on...
The day I visited Col. Nathaniel was fun filled to me watching him in pain and fear.
At 11:53pm he was fast asleep when I caused him to go to the bathroom, there he saw me in the mirror, frightened, he rush back into his room and locked the door. On turning, I was sitting on his bed he asked "what are you doing in my room at this time of the night Christopher?" I said "you killed my father!! And I'm here to kill you" he started laughing, Immediately I transformed into the Demon, he tried to run out of the room but the door closed on it's on. Then I hit him to the wall, moved over to his wife, whispered in her ear to wake up. She smiled, opened her eyes and behold the Demon, paralyzed, she called out for her husband in fear. I lifted her up with my powers and breath into her the hot air from my body roasting her to death  while he watched helplessly. Then I took him to his son's room, he tried to fight and I broke his legs, tired his son to the bed and set his bed on fire, the poor 4years old died while he watched. Then I set the whole house on fire and held Him inside of it since I couldn't burn and he got roasted while I watched to my satisfaction.
Now I'm done with all the killing related to my Dad's and my dad was buried years back but the demon won't go away, I sometimes kill others for no reason because I can't control it, but it controls me.  I'm now a Demon, and there's no turning back. My only wish was granted and now I wish I didn't make the wish.
Now MY ONLY WISH is to be a normal kid again.
After all I did, I still miss my Dad. To those of you out there, learn to accept whatever comes your way, you can't turn back the hand of time. I remember my pastor use to say "Vengeance is the LORD's. Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true!!
