Enslavement of Kidpinoy #6

Image
  “Look at him. Just look at the state of the ‘Invincible’ KidPinoy,” the Tycoon sneered, his voice echoing through the sterile, cold arena. He paced around the slumped, shivering form of Bien Regalado, his expensive shoes clicking against the floor now stained with sweat and the evidence of Bien’s forced exhaustion. “Twenty years of peace. Twenty years of you playing God in this little archipelago, and all it took was a month of showing you what you really are. A vessel. Nothing more than a brown, sun-kissed battery for our amusement.” The Counselor leaned over, his face twisted into a mask of predatory glee. He poked at Bien’s midsection with a polished cane. “The legendary ten-pack. I remember the news cycles, Bien. They called these ‘the iron walls of Manila.’ They said no blade could pierce them, no bullet could dent them. And here I am, watching them quiver like jelly. Tell me, hero, does it hurt? Does it hurt to feel your ‘infinite chi’ being squeezed out of you like juice f...

Butchering of DragonKid #3

  "Look at the great Filipino savior now! Twenty years of undefeated glory, twenty years of the untouchable DragonKid acting like he owned the skies above Manila, and what is left of you in this wasteland?!" Lord Ocarius hissed, his newly transformed upper torso—a horrific fusion of pale, damp human flesh and glossy, obsidian serpent scales—slithering forward as he towered over the broken, naked form of his prisoner. DragonKid spat a thick clot of crimson blood onto the scorched ash of the earth, his lean, sinewy frame trembling under the agonizing weight of the demonic poisons coursing through his veins. Every inch of his once-impenetrable crimson scales—the very armor that had protected the Philippines for two decades—was cracked, scuffed, and pried loose. The iconic scale-mask framing his golden, slit-like eyes was half-shredded, exposing the bruised, swollen flesh of his human cheek beneath. "Twenty years of fasting, twenty years of celibacy, saving yourself for your...

Butchering of DragonKid #4

Act I: The Ash of Manila’s Gate The sky over the wasteland just outside Manila did not weep; it burned. For twenty-four hours, the horizon had been a strobing furnace of golden draconic fire and violet demonic lightning. The soil, once fertile coastal clay, was now a glassed, smoking crater-scape, choked with the charred, rotting carcasses of tens of thousands of low-tier demon thralls. They lay in mountainous piles—rent apart, decapitated, dissolved by holy chi. In the center of this apocalyptic charnel house stood Dragonkid. For over two decades, he had been the indomitable aegis of the Philippines. Handsome, flawless, possessed of a sculpted golden-brown physique that seemed carved from divine marble, his very presence was a promise of safety. His long, black-and-gold hair, usually floating majestically in the updraft of his infinite chi, now hung in matted, blood-soaked clumps over his face. He was entirely nude. His legendary dragon-scale armor—an organic extension of his skin tha...

Enslavement of Kidpinoy #5

  The Broken Shield of Manila “Look at him, gentlemen! Our very own ‘KidPinoy’! Or should I say… Bien Regalado, the pier worker!” The sneering voice of Trump Albright, amplified by the cavernous arena’s sound system, echoed through the chamber. Bien, or KidPinoy as the world knew him, hung spread-eagled, his limbs stretched to their absolute limits by gleaming chains. A month. A month since Rose’s terrified scream had pierced his heart, since he’d dropped his mask and his fists, surrendering himself to save her. A month since his legendary invincibility had begun its slow, agonizing unraveling. His once-famous ten-pack abs, still defined but now glistening with sweat and something stickier, twitched involuntarily. He’d been off the milking machine for an hour, a temporary reprieve from the constant suction, only to be offered up for the ‘personal touch’ of the highest bidders. “Still so defiant, aren’t we, Bien?” Professor Oca’s voice, once academic and respected, was now a slither...
