Kill the unborn child

Over the span of human evolution, many tribes raised and fell , their languages forgotten and their practices devalued but one tribe has stood the test of time from as early as the first cavemen . The tribe members share no blood with each other they all are snatched from other tribes and groups then mended into Wui Tribe

Sam was a thirteen year old girl born to a small unnamed tribe living near a river her mother was pregnant with her third child and as usual Sam sits at her fits playing with rocks and beads suddenly a wave of nausea hits her she turns her head to the sides , beginning to hear whispers all around her and a firm hand squeezing on her shoulder she begins scratching her neck over and over and over till her nails draw blood her father immediately picks this up and grabs her hands holding them away from her neck , he parts his lips to speak but Sam headbutts him breaking his nose forcing him to release her hands while he held his nose , Sam reaches for his hunting spear and jabs it into his neck , the pregnant mother screams prompting Sam to pick up one of the larger rocks she was playing with and bash her mother in the head when the mother fell to the ground Sam stomps on her womb over and over again till it almost flattened and blood was leaking out of every opening of the mother, she left the hut after retrieving the bloody spear that killed her father.

Walking out the hut Sam quickly encounters the tribe's warriors responding to her mother's scream seeing her with a bloody spear they rush to help her asking where the enemy was and what happened to her father , in a blink of an eye Sam the 13 year old girl who had never held a spear in her life was striking through the hearts of seasoned warriors who were helpless to her they struck her down multiple times but she rose again even with their weapons piercing through her heart she got up , soon all the warriors were dead and the commission had all the tribeman out of their huts she pounced at an elderly woman only stopping when a horn rung and a man with a black skull emblem on his clothes appeared, although they had never met or even heard of each other an instinctive fear overflowed Sam forcing her to flee with great speeds , crossing the river and making way to the nearby caves , she ran for miles and miles never stopping till finally a cave called to her , she walks in seeing a corpse upon a throne of bones with ' WUI ' written in fresh blood above her she cradles at it's feet and fell asleep.

Fight

Present day, a man was on the run for murdering his entire family , according to federal report the man who showed no earlier signs of any aggression suddenly abrupted and bashed in the head of his wife then stabbed his 3 year old then ran out of the city on foot , police officers shot at him multiple times some confident that they hit him but he showed no signs of stopping till jumping off a bridge and disappearing .

The man resurfaced miles away from the city but as he steps out of the water , a man with a black skull emblem over a black cloak holding a spear " I am Zay and i will save you from the WUI Tribe's clutches " Zay stands at 6,5 with a muscular build and luxurious beard he had fair brown skin that glistened beautifully as the sun shined on it " how do you know he is possessed? " a little kid who could not be older then 12 asks, the kid was wearing identical attire to Zay and hid a distance behind him " The eyes...... and the fact that he was shot 56 times then swam underwater for a 1000 miles " . The tribeman begun whispering beneath his breath then a pitch black liquid leaks from his hands forming large claws then charges at Zay who meets him halfway.

A thousand years ago, shortly after Sam fell into the grasp of the Wui tribe and ran into the caves the man with a black skull emblem stays behind with the traumatized residents " Hey my name is G , i am with the order of the skull what you have witnessed right now is the works of the cursed Wui tribe " G steps on the bodies of the fallen warriors " I am to assume these were your best soldiers and with them gone you are vulnerable so here is what we are going to do , the children of this tribe will be taken into the order of the skull , they will be protected and taught to protect others " there was a moment of silence till an elderly woman in her late 80s spoke up to ask " what of the rest of us " G turns to her with his hand reaching into a poach " You must be killed " in the next second G was closeup to the grandma lodging a dagger through her heart then snapping his fingers signaling a hidden troup to release a barrage of arrows hitting all the adults , men and women as their bodies hit the ground, tears fall from G's eyes " but you will have proper burials and your children will vist your graves often "

Watching the corpse of every adult hitting the ground, the kids scattered away from G , well signaling his team to hunt them down he felt himself raise ever so slightly then thrown against the ground, his spear went for their neck but stopped when he saw the culprit, 3 trembling boys with tears and snouts

The tribeman begun whispering beneath his breath then a pitch black liquid leaks from his hands forming large claws then charges at Zay who meets him halfway , the man swings his claws aiming for Zay's chest he jumps over it , shooting his spear through the man's head then landing behind him , seeing this the child who was with Zay starts running towards him celebrating but a look of dread spooks Zay's face " No STOP !" Even with a spear piercing into his eye, through his brain and out the back the tribeman was still moving seeing the child he launches multiple talons from his claws aimed at the young boy Zay is able to shoot past the tribeman in time to block the talons with his own body , getting stabbed through his right lung, left leg and lower back a large amount of blood spills out of his mouth " Listen Yi , they are never dead till you chop off their heads now i need two swords , can you do that for me " Yi cuts open a section of his skin , dipping his finger in the blood then drawing 2 small twin swords on his wrist he then swipes through the sketch into his palm and as he broke contact two swords spawned Zay immediately snatches them launching himself at the tribeman, ducking and deflecting a barrage of talons from the man's claws till they were face to face , the swords and claws collide Zay releases one of his swords, grabbing onto the spear lodged through the man's head kicking his chest simultaneously pulling the spear out Zay takes a back leap into the air " Yi , spike balls " Yi quickly dips his finger in the blood again then draws spiked balls, swiping them into his palm then launching them at Zay who hits them with his spear through the man's chest he lands then charges at the man swinging the remaining sword through his neck but simultaneously the man digs his claw through Zay's stomach, with his head chopped off the tribeman begins to turn into a pitch black liquid " Yi , bandages "......"Yi , cotton and disinfectant " .." Yi? " Zay looks back seeing Sam with her hand over Yi's mouth with a menacing smile over her face Zay tries to charge towards him but his body crashes and he blacks out.

Zay wakes up, 4 days later in a hospital room , a black man with the black skull emblem tattooed on his neck walks in " Where's Yi? " Zay asks but the black man remains quiet looking at the floor " I saw her, the WUI bitch you let escape a thousand years ago "

Chapter 4

Zay wakes up, 4 days later in a hospital room , a black man with the black skull emblem tattooed on his neck walks in " Where's Yi? " Zay asks but the black man remains quiet looking at the floor " I saw her, the WUI bitch you let escape a thousand years ago " the black man bows his head " Not just her , for the last 4 days the Wui tribe has been popping up in large numbers, they are not just killing like wild animals they started to show signs of order and a greater purpose "

" Purpose? " Zay questions sitting up from his bed his body throbbing and aching the black man sighs " They've been adapting kids , some confirmed to possess special skill " Zay looks puzzled " You think they are starting to understand special skillls? that is impossible no one outside of the order of the skull understands special skills " G nods at Zay to exist the hospital room as they do so they now show that they were in a large school with young kids all under 16 running around in uniform identical to the one Zay wore during his father.

" As you know a special skill is a heightened unique somewhat magical ability that each human holds within themselves, but it can only be activated beneath the age of 16 and if by 16 a special skill isn't unlocked it'll lay dormant within you but this makes you highly luckily to fall into the WUI Tribe's curse , exploding into a killing monster often beginning with close family and friends.

For thousands of years, the order of the skull has been determined on killing off the tribe , at first we tried hunting them down as they showed up but they were too widespread and popped up at random with no signs of a pattern then we got desperate we thought if we could unlock every child's special skill so no one in the next generation would be turned and some even thought it best to kill adults who had not unlocked their special skills or even turned yet "

" like when you killed my entire village's adults " Zay interrupts with a cold expression on his face choosing not to face G who continues " Yes but later down the line we focused on establishing strongholds across the globe each protecting a section and for years now we have been laying dormant with someone turning probably once a year but now reports across all strongholds say the tribeman are popping up left and right but some of them are thought to have turned years ago and have since mastered their stings amd with this we believe we are on the vague of a final battle"

The two finally stop at the school's entrance 12 buses holding 60+ children enter " These are our new recruits " Zay's fist balled up " you physcopath, you stole these children from their mothers and fathers just like you stole us " Zay's lung collapses and he falls unconscious

Chapter 5

University of the black skull is a special institution that does not follow a regular curriculum at this school learners are taught to unlock and master a special skill , a magical prowess that lays dormant within every human being it can only be unlocked while under the age of 16 if someone does not master their special skill by then it rots and corrupts the soul inviting the cruel curse of a WUI tribe, once someone is effected ny the WUI curse they cannot be turned back and must be offed .

This year's crop brought 720 pupils all eager to be trained to fight the WUI tribe , The learners were split into four groups depending on the type of special skill they have there is the forwards , support , medics and sky . Forwards commonly possess a combat type of skill, allowing them to be in the frontlines a likely example would be a pupil that can manifest weapons . Supports commonly possess skills that are more beneficial to a team two examples are telepathys who could help move information across distances effortlessly and a pupil that can boast other's strengths. Medics are self explanatory. The skies were mixed, a group of extremely versatile pupils that were trusted to adapt to any scenario by switching from two or all of the other groups.

Zay wakes up on the hospital bed again, feeling his chest and realizing the wounds were completely gone and everything was functioning normally he sits up from his bed with a sadden look on his face , a figure slides into view leaning on the doorframe " Sorry i wasn't here to heal you the first time i was rounding up the new slacks " the voice sounded cool and calm " also i heard you ran into ol Sam and she did a number on you "

Chapter 6

Zay wakes up on the hospital bed again, feeling his chest and realizing the wounds were completely gone and everything was functioning normally he sits up from his bed with a sadden look on his face , a figure slides into view leaning on the doorframe " Sorry i wasn't here to heal you the first time i was rounding up the new slacks " the voice sounded cool and calm " also i heard you ran into ol Sam and she did a number on you " Travis walks into the room, a gentle smile on his face, shortcut hair , brown skin and charcoal black eyes he held an energy drink in both hands , handing one to Zay as he sits on the bed ontop of Zay's legs " 1012 years old and you let a girl put you in the hospital for a week , they had to call children to come help you "

Zay's face stays gloomy " you mean they had to abduct children to come help , all these children don't wanna be here just like we didn't a thousand years ago " Zay and Travis were amongst the kids of the tribe Sam spawned from , the order of the skull killed the adults then took in all children to train them into the next generation of warriors against the WUI tribe remembering this Zay always held a little resentment even though in the end ne saw the bigger picture he always felt like their were better ways to go about the recruitment.

" Really? they don't sound like they don't wanna be here " Zay listens and outside of the hospital bed he can hear laughter and little kids running around, Travis lifts him out of bed and out the room where he sees all the kids playing various sports together

" You know Zay , me and you are the only ones in that crop thats still alive and that's because of the hidden twin curse , what do you think happened to our peers ? " " They all died" " yes but before that they all found partners, married, had children and those children are the ones you see here . See this crop was raised knowing about the WUI tribe and the order of the skull , these are not al their descendants just those who chose to join the order " " They were not abducted? " " no, now go get dressed we have a dangerous mission to get to "
