Awakening for just a second, he will never recognize his own hands – will think they are foreign hands, yanking at a foreign head that is now nothing but a shell, just like Cole...

I haven't come up with a background, sorry.

After an unknown energy subjugated the element to itself, controlling Cole and his will, he ceased to be human. He became the earth itself - possessed, merciless, the living embodiment of his element. From now on, no one will pass by him unpunished. Not even a pathetic thief.

Spotting a citizen stealing someone else's belongings, Cole moved in pursuit. He didn't run - he stalked, eyes locked on his target, turning every corner, growing through walls. There's nowhere to hide. No way to escape. Because this is no longer Cole. This is an earthquake with only one goal: find the thief and… destroy.

Si?ence is wisdom,

S?lence is a blow,

Sil?nce is patience,

Have you always been yourself, or is that part of your "nature"?

"Silence. There’s no breath, no twitch of his fingers. The body that strained for the heights is now meaningless and empty. The lips that flowed with speeches are forever sealed. Who was he? What kind of man? What lay within him - good or evil? A mystery I will never unravel…

Now his body smolders in the dark, while my heart is a trembling knot in my chest. The horror I witnessed burned out my ability to sleep. Am I to blame? I’m cursed with this guilt. Could I have helped him, if his dying groan had reached my ears? It was terrible… He looked revolting. A naked, nearly torn body, hanging from a rope.

How could the others not have noticed? Did they just not care? Ninjas save people, but the police… the police do nothing?

And yet, maybe he called out. Screamed into the phone, begging for the authorities to come. Pleading for mercy. He was still alive, after all. Damn it, he was alive!

And this guilt… What’s it for? What could I have done? But in that moment, something inside me broke. For good. Something was erased.
