INKT~Black Heart

I look upon my newly created empire, gazed at it new and colorless beauty. Every building and estate is bleached, every landmark is barren yet spotless and each and every block of this city is under control of the INKT Cooperation. Soldiers on the sidewalks, gates and estate, battle weapons and machinery patrol on the streets and cameras are secured and observing any activity. This is what INKT is about control and order!

I control all of this….me and me alone; others who are behind me follow my every command. One word and it will go as followed! Even a snap of a finger would carry it out also! It goes as it follows: Attention! Ready! Forward! March! Strike at the city! Take away their entire colour: from uptown to downtown, from park to beaches! Make it all gray! Then take their music: Jazz, Bass, Hip-hop, etc.! Make it silenced! Afterwards, take their amusement: Sports! Rides! Gardens! Even parties! Make them work, instead! Take everything away…and LOCK IT UP!! Then gather up all the citizens and place them in lockdown! Blend out their colorful appearance and wipe up their silly grins; they will be our slaves! We will teach them how we work here…with control, discipline and ORDER!

I chuckled at the thought of it….I could it all about in my future: Comrade Black, our rightful ruler and victor! Ended the War-on-Colour and triumphant once more! I could see myself in a parade, waving at my fellow subjects! My name will be praised and feared across the galaxy and they will bow to none other them me!

For now, I have it all: control, power and even luxury. My friends have spread out through the country side, controlling each and even region they could find but it I who controls them. As long as they are in control…I’m in control. They will teach those fools of colour to not mess with us…we are more equipped, we are more organized, we are military squadron that will never be conquered!

I removed my gaze from the wide window and seated myself in my big, comfy chair, grabbing a sip in my colourless drink with the little black umbrella on it. I sit back comfortably on my chair enjoying this moment. You could say that I’m a man that has it all……

But……

……Something deep down in my heart….there is an absent, like I’m missing the last piece of my puzzle. It’s been there for a while now….and it bugs me greatly. Aren’t I the man, the leader, the conqueror of this world that has it all? If so then why does it fill that I’m missing something!? Is all my hard work of ruling this planet is beginning to become meaningless? Or….is it that I’m at lost of the one thing? I began to think back at my arrival here. Everything is going as plan….it was until that creature….that BLOB showed up and ruins everything! At first it seems to be nothing to worry about but lately it’s becoming a hassle. Still, I’m very confident that I could rid myself from him….and his band of rebellious buggers. Still, something inside me….something about that blob makes my temper boil….like a surge of envy.

That blob has something…that something that I needed to complete my conquest….to fill in my blackened heart but what is it?

I pull myself up further from my seat and began to look though the files that my soldiers just brought in. It holds various pictures of the members or associates of the rebels. They call them the ‘Colour Underground’. It’s a stupid and ridiculous name but it what they choose for themselves; all of them were colorful yet chaotic, they yell and cheer like wild animals and they squabbles are out of control! Each one are worse than the last…but the one I despise…no, HATE is none other than that paint-sucking creature from hell name De Blob! He’s the worse then all of them combine and he’s a beast! Looking at the pictures of him…and his smuggling face….I hates him! I hate him! I HATE him!! I would’ve torn the pictures of him and burn them all…but I didn’t. I’ve noticed that always have her in these pictures….this girl, this young female who is from neither this planet…nor my planet but from another colorful planet called Earth.

I remember seeing her. She was tall…taller than me actually but has a sensational smell to her…like the smell of the ocean; dark-colored skin with light summer blue eyes, hair that reach to her back and thin, slender figure that makes you think she’s an angel. Usually I wouldn’t be interested in species that aren’t my own but…I couldn’t help it. This young girl just captivates me so……her smile….alluring; her eyes….filled with bliss and her voice….is so divine. My heart race and my hands shaking….I could hardly breathe.  

I never knew how much she entrance me so. A pity that she’s one of them…..those colorful and chaotic beings….destined to be wild and uncivil! Such a cruel fate; though being with them has made her enjoy their reckless games of ‘fun’ and made her a strong supporter of those cursed Underground scums! Not only them but her ‘human’ friends as well…. They’re just as barbaric as the rest! How could she choose them over the INKT? She was just like us:simple, docile and hard-working…..now they made her more….outgoing, hyper and fun-loving! I sigh heavily as I slid further on my seat……she is all theirs now; my heart sunk like a ship…..what does they…no…..Blob got that I don’t? I have power, wealth and luxury…while Blob got nothing but his color behind! He‘s a nobody…a shapeless creature!!

Pieces of the picture of Blob and the girl were into the air. I felt exposed…like my tactics are uneven! I couldn’t stand that Blob! I couldn’t stand the rebellion! I’m going to make them all pay!

I will defend the name of the INKT and end the colour revolution…even if I had to use my whole army to finish them off! I will remind them of who is in charge here! I refuse to fall down to that revolution and their….beloved hero; I won’t tolerate any disobedience or rebellion against me! I worked too hard to let that filthy colour loving blob repaint this city! All the noise and blasted chaos, people all over the streets with no self-guidance or awareness! Children losing their minds and going against their parents! No! No! NO!      

Then suddenly, I felt a jolt in my mind. A plot I nearly forgotten….a scheme that will give me the advantage of taking over not only the city…but the whole planet! I grinned wickedly as I rose from my chair and approach the window once more, gazing at my city.

Yes, this plan is genius….I shouldn’t worry much…cause my enemies will be doing all the hard work for me. And once it’s completed…all my enemies will bow down to me at last.

And as for the girl….heh, heh…she will be perfect: she will grace my empire with her beauty and she will be stay by my side forever. And if she doesn’t comply to my reasons…well there is always the execution ….either way it’ll relieve my own black heart.
