A ship drifted through the mist, its crew tense with anticipation. The island before them was a vision of untouched splendor-rolling fields of flowers, their colors unknown to the world, trees bearing fruit that no human had ever seen or tasted. It was paradise, and yet, something about it felt wrong.

Among the explorers was Dr. Elias Montgomery, a renowned scientist, his assistant Sophia Carter, and ten armed men hired as protection. They had come in search of a legend, a myth whispered through centuries.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5GfmMcUUQ
Dr. Montgomery's breath hitched as his gaze locked onto a towering, ancient tree at the island's heart. The Tree of Life.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1M3ESdurKT
"Impossible..." he whispered. His voice trembled, a mixture of awe and disbelief.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgpee2dmsw
The Tree of Life-a fable made flesh. Its golden fruit gleamed in the dappled sunlight, pulsing with an otherworldly energy. Ancient scriptures spoke of it: Whoever eats of its fruit shall never know sickness, nor death. The key to eternity itself.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHmpB3CDXZ
"This... this is it! The greatest discovery in human history!" Montgomery cried out, his voice breaking with excitement.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQMwxaileG
One of the hired men chuckled darkly. "If it's real, then I'm eating first."
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdjmMBdJSB
Ignoring the scientist's warning shouts, the man stepped forward, reaching for one of the shimmering fruits. His fingers barely brushed the skin-
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjmmnjkUv5
And he vanished.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V6WSnnxCl
No scream. No trace. No sound, except for the rustling of leaves in the wind.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8t1TMzYDTT
The tree remained untouched, its fruit swaying gently.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYnPpJbJag
Then-a sickening crunch.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7JlAgPudG
The crew recoiled as something hit the ground. A pile of bones. The very same man who had reached for the fruit-his flesh and organs were gone, stripped clean as if by an unseen force. Only his skeleton remained, curled in a grotesque heap.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB3LywbwIm
A scream tore through the air. Sophia doubled over, vomiting violently at the sight. The guards cursed, scrambling to reload their weapons. The air thickened, pressing in around them, suffocating in its unnatural stillness.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0bDkVtqNE
And then-Abaddon walked out.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5WTrAk7Fu
From the dense foliage, he emerged.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkP1QKU7XB
A boy in shape, but nothing human.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpAXRZoU1m
His legs twisted grotesquely backward, yet he moved effortlessly. Three arms twitched unnaturally at his sides, his flesh writhing as if barely holding its form together. Forty-five eyes blinked in an unholy sequence, scattered across his face, neck, and arms. His tongue, long and blackened, dragged across the bloodstained earth.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDyvGUad6C
His very presence was wrong, a blasphemy against existence itself.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIlmYXz9ZP
"S-Stop there!" one of the men stammered, his rifle shaking in his grip.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEd3OzEzlz
Abaddon turned his many eyes to him.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ESD4EAAci
The man's bladder released.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZJsnnAfBa
In pure instinctual terror, they opened fire. Bullets ripped through the abomination's body-yet he did not slow. He did not bleed.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hR971PzrV
He did not even flinch.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNb7nm5418v
Still, he advanced. Step by step.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvjyRY2oCr
One of the men fumbled in his pack, yanking out a grenade. Desperation twisted his features as he tore out the pin-
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e3myFAMqR
His head vanished.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADAcXRr0ew
One second it was there, the next-it simply wasn't. His body collapsed, twitching, a fountain of blood spraying the air as his lifeless corpse hit the ground.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiOKKXabFT
And then-the creatures came.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQrtNszDGh
They slithered from the shadows, crawling on too many limbs, whispering in voices that did not belong in this world. They did not kill the men-they simply dragged them away, pulling them into the darkness where screams became gurgles.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKauPJyTep
One of the men, in sheer horrified surrender, turned his gun on himself. "Better to die by my own hand than... than this."
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfdg9Be0tx
The shot rang out. He fell.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT54ulykvq
Sophia, shaking, picked up his gun. Her face was streaked with tears, her lips muttering a silent prayer to a god that had long abandoned this place.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZM9AAYO2g
She placed the barrel beneath her chin and pulled the trigger.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8ioqZQoog
Her body crumpled beside the others.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIgVvJnZJG
And still, Abaddon stood.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQAfjuvRE4
Watching.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHkoi0Ka3e
Waiting.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SvKcqN9KH
Behind him, the island thrived-its flowers blooming, its fruit ripening in the golden light. A paradise untouched by time, undisturbed by decay.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ4lbZ8V5F
Yet no human would ever leave it alive.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcns06xhgd4
This was The Forgotten Island Called Paradise.
115Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gxVVG1L3I
And it belonged to him.
