On the outskirts of town, a trio of mob ghouls are attempting to press-gang a recently reanimated cousin into joining their crime ring. They wield bright UV flashlights, burning the less experienced undead relentlessly as they sob and scream. Then the lights begin to flicker. The leader looks at his light. "We replaced the batteries on these suckers, right? I get that we've been using them a lot, but-" There is the sound of something crashing through the trees. A shadowy flash lunges from the woods.
One of the gangsters is stomped with a sickening crunch as the dark entity lands, red eyes burning and gleaming like embers as it stands to its full, towering height. One of the others looks up in horror at the dagger-toothed grin set in the demon's face, which in turn is set beneath a familiar white baseball cap. The other mob ghoul draws a pistol as their flashlight shatters from mere proximity to the Butcher. Their weapon proves worthless as Porter extends his toothy accordion arm to slam them against the wall, nearly crushing their skull before he rips it off by collapsing his arm once more. He bites into the head like an apple before dropping it.
The last gangster looks around, desperate for any sort of protection. He reaches for the civilian, hoping to take a hostage, only to realize that their prospective victim disappeared into the dark as soon as the UV went out. The former leader's glassy eyes stare up at the Cursebutcher, realization slowly filling them as they start to bleed.
It doesn't matter how tough they are. This thing isn't something you can shoot with guns and burn with lights.
This is Consequence, and with a population as large as the modern world's, such things have grown to monumental, unspeakable levels of power. All the slaughtered animals, all the fallen soldiers, all the innocents killed by drugs and alcohol and cigarettes to feed the corporations. The ghost of carnage itself. Man's ability to cause harm personified and sent from Hell in a moment of terrible clarity.
As they lay there, too scared to move, the horror returns to the woods. The ghoul looks around at their deceased comrades. It's time to get a new job.

*Back, heart pumping in my chest. Nice intro Baalze.*
*Thank you. I wanted to try out the "Fly Swatting" style of fight, where it's basically a massacre but it characterizes the victor a bit.*
*I don't think I did that good a job, all things considered.*
