My name is Heartless
My name is Heartless
A while ago, someone once asked me why I go by the name of Heartless Dragon, well for many reasons, its because I am heartless to certain things. Its not a name I just willingly go by.
I actually wrote a story of it and wanted to turn it into a series but I abandoned the project and decided to write only a small story.
I will accept any words, criticism or anything hurtful. I will go by what I believe in and this is who I am
This is something I am basing off in my dream and parts of my life so, I put my life and heart out on this. Being heartless is who i am
I stood there on the ground, which looked like dried mud but gray. I was surrounded by a thick mist so I couldn't see anything. Everywhere I turned I felt like I was no where in particular. The sky was ash gray, the sun was blue and I felt naked.
I knew why I was here. I have done something that I don't think any one would have done, in any species, in any life but I did it. I ended that race in which I was born in. I killed them all and now, I am the last of them, standing in a wonder less place where I think I will find my body or soul wondering forever.
Then two lights came from the skies and cleared the mist. One was of bright white and it almost seemed blinding. The other was pitch black and it felt like an endless abyss. Then out of the two lights, came two figures.
I knew who they are. Gods, gods of light and darkness. Of hope and damnation. Of love and fear.
The white god, was a female. More specially, a dragoness. Her scales where of utter shine and she had the body that I many of the mortals would die, just from staring at. Angel wings on her back, her whole eyes sky blue and when she flapped her wings, the scent of her was absolutely intoxicating.
Then it was the dark god. Another dragon only male and he looked terrifying.
Red eyes, demonic wings on his back. Red and black scales all over with spikes up and down his body. His body gave off like a feeling of fear feeling with a black aurora surrounding him.
I knew why they were here and they were here for me.
The white goddess spoke. Her voice was a bit off from being happy but even though she wasn't happy, she still spoke as if she was singing and everything around her would light up. "What is your name?" she asked me.
"Heartless." I answered. "My name is Heartless."
"Why have you choose to go by that name?" asked the god of darkness. His voice not angered but it sounded almost like growling then speaking.
"Because its who I am and what I choose to go by."
"Do you realized what you have to done to your race?" asked the goddess.
"Yes," I answered. "I have killed off the entire human race and I have gave the planet Earth peace. I have killed off the infestation and I have given the planet hope of starting anew."
"What gave you any right to wipe off your race from existence?" growled the god.
"I did it because I needed to." I answered. "I needed to kill them because they poisoned the planet, killed every living creature, destroy lands and landscapes and they even kill each other. They do that and more with weapons. They shouldn't be aloud to live because they care for nothing or anything. I put in end to their race.
I killed them with the very weapons they used against others and themselves. I have rid of them all, men, women and children alike. If they were to kill off their planet, they would find another and kill everything on that. I couldn't risk that. Not another planet, not other life, no."
The gods looked at me with unsteady eyes but I knew that everything I say, it came from my heart. I could give a less shit about the human race. If they were to be brought back and still have their intelligence, I would make sure that they would die again. I don't care of the gods sent me to damnation for all of eternity. I rather suffer a hundred damnations over and over again, just to let the human race stay extinct.
The goddess spoke out first but her voice wasn't of anger but more of question. "You know that, you are the only living human alive? And that now, the planet earth and others are safe only because of you killing off your entire race, correct?"
I nodded.
"Then it is our choice," said the god, "That we will create a new race on this planet. But I fear that if we were to bring the human race back, you would kill them off then?"
I nodded without hesitation.
The goddess lowered her head so I she could be closer. "Why are you so cold hearted child?" she asked me.
"I am not cold hearted. I have no heart when it comes to the human race. I am willingly ready to give my soul up, so that no human should be alive.
I wanted a world where every creature is different. In difference, those creature could learn to love one another because of their differences. The humans would, however, would treat differences like they would do to each other, threats."
"And if the creatures would act upon each other like the humans have, then what would you do about it, if you lived among them?"
"I would connect with them," I answered. "Connect and ensure that they do not hate or fear or fight each other like the humans did."
"How?" she asked me.
I looked right into her eyes and stared at her beauty. "I would be a symbol to them. Of differences put together. One creature to act as many."
"If we were to start the earth with life that is not humans but of differences in nature, would you live among them as their symbol?"
"Yes."
And would you protect them, with all your might and your heart, not to let them fall in chaos, fear or hate?"
"I would."
The gods smiled before they stood back. "Then we will grant you your wish."
"Wait!" I cried out to them. They stopped and looked to me. "Yes?"
I looked up at them. "If I am to be their symbol then I want to be what you are. A dragon. The greatest of the species and I shall teach them all what it means to truly be in peace. No wars, no weapons."
"Child," said the god, "Peace doesn't always stay peaceful. Eventually, all fight one another."
"Yes I know," I said to them. "But if they choose to fight, it is best that they fight with the weapons you give them. Body, mind and heart."
"Your are naïve as you are wise," said the goddess with a smile. "But never the less, I hope to see greatness in you."
"You will."
"And if we are to start this race, you will have to watch them grow. Watch them grow intelligent and see how they evolve."
"Will I die of age then?"
"No," said the goddess. "You shall stay ageless and lead the new species on the planet. However, we would like to know if you wish others of your kind. Presumably, you will be the only one left..."
"Just as I am the only human left," I responded.
The goddess nodded. "Of course."
"I would like to see more of my race but first, I would like to see how these new species of yours will handle me. If all goes well then yes, but if anything should change then I would wait a long life time to see my kind touch the earth."
"As you wish," said the goddess, amused. "however, you realize that you're the first mortal to ask so high of us. And what of your names? Do you still wish to go by it?"
"Yes. But I want to be known as Heartless Dragon."
"Of course."
They both opened their wings and flapped hard. The feathers flew off their wings and soon, I was wrapped in a whirlwind of feathers. And soon everything turned white then black. Then nothing.
When I awoke, I was in a human city. I knew that their would be new life here so I left the buildings in tact. The weapon I used against the humans was a biological weapon. It kills the genes that the human race carry and not the animals. However in my plot, since primates were closer to anything to humans, they died too.
But now as I stand here, by the city in my new form. I keep forgetting that these gods were so forgiving and powerful. Who knew that I could convince the great lords themselves into creating new life. And I got rid of the fucking human race. Now I watch as the animals around the world slowly grew into more humanoid or something like that.
Two thousand years of evolution has been so boring and yet I watched with amusement as the gods changed every animal on earth to anthros. And it seemed to amaze me more as they slowly toke technology so well and adapted it.
Now I wonder how the next thousand years will be. Alone on this planet, alone with no other race. And now that I am being watched by two guardians, I wonder if I'm going to do the same thing to this race as I did with the last?
