Damn started reading a few books, and the woman let him read books. The reason he started reading, it's not because he likes reading or wants to be smart; he started reading as a coping mechanism for living in the orphanage.
He has no friends in the orphanage.
Everyone is either scared of him and the lady, or they bully a 2-year-old kid.
Every day was fun (horrible) for Damn. The only time he felt happy (miserable) was when he was reading a book.
Every morning was beautiful (terrible) for Damn. He was woken up by a sweet pat (they punched him) to tell him to wake up.
Every day was like that.
A year went by, and Damn repeated the same day every day. He got hit to wake up, was called for an extraction of his kidneys every day, and read books while getting hit by kids.
The woman was scared to extract Damn's heart for money. She was scared that he would never wake up and wouldn't get to make money, so she stuck to what was 'safe' for her.
Damn figured he got his powers through Compound V and didn't know which V he got it from. He realised that his birth parents probably injected him with V, and he died from it. Then a powerful being resurrected him by flames since he didn't have fire powers.
He didn't know where to start searching for his parents because he didn't know where he was when he reincarnated.
'Why should I look for them?' Damn thought to himself as he got angry when realising his parents sold him.
He didn't blame them or get mad at them; he was just angry at his situation and looking for someone to blame.
He couldn't blame the being that brought him to this world; he's even partially thankful for that being, so he looked to his birth parents to blame.
He didn't think he took over the body of a baby since the baby was dead, and he died afterwards as well and reincarnated... Again.
He felt frustrated.
He wanted to find them just so he could get closure or find out the truth.
The life at the orphanage is not good for him. Every time he tried to read, everybody would steal his books or punch him, a three-year-old.
It was hard reading books when he was 2 because of his small hands and body. Now he is 3, and everybody torments him.
Few kids died at the orphanage. The woman cooked their body parts and fed Damn their parts.
He didn't know at first, but he was horrified when he found out later and became traumatized by meat.
He couldn't digest food for the whole month because of that incident.
He hated her from the bottom of his heart. He was taught sign language but not how to write or read. Everything he was taught was only verbal and nothing else.
His ABCs and 123s were taught by speaking to him and not showing him the letters or numbers.
In this orphanage, a child is not adopted but sold, and the lady refused to sell him, let alone let everyone know about him.
Damn thought the orphanage had connections with Vought, but it didn't, or it didn't look like it did.
The lady, out of boredom or anger, cut his lower body in half and forced the dog to eat his lower body because there was no dog food in the house.
It took him less than 12 hours to heal his lower body.
After healing his legs, Damn got angry and walked to the kitchen to grab a knife. The lady walked into the kitchen to cook something and spotted Damn.
"Damn, I didn't know you were in here." The lady said that as if it's a coincidence, but Damn knows that she saw him go to the kitchen.
"Since you're in here, maybe you could offer a 'hand' to me." The lady said to Damn, and he knew what she was talking about.
Damn walked towards her and stabbed her in the thigh since he was short. The knife couldn't go all the way because he had the strength of a 3-year-old.
He tried to pull the knife out, but the lady caught his hands.
"Why would you do that, Damn? I've been good to you." The lady kicked Damn, and he stumbled back.
The lady took out the knife and threw it onto the kitchen counter.
Damn was coughing up blood from his mouth.
The lady picked him up and slammed him onto the kitchen counter with full strength. Damn bled internally, but he was healing.
He saw the knife on the counter and grabbed it. The lady tried to grab the pan on the stove, but Damn jumped on her back and stabbed her in the back of her neck.
She pulled him from her back, and Damn held the knife like his life depended on it. The lady pulled him from her back and threw him into the cupboard.
The lady held her neck because it was bleeding. Damn stood up from the countertop and jumped at the lady while holding the knife. He pierced the lady's chest and stabbed her lung.
He looked her in the eyes and said, "I am Damian. My name is Damian, bitch." He tried to pull the knife out, but it was stuck.
'Oh shit.' That's when he knew he fucked up.
The lady pushed Damian from her chest to the ceiling, and he came crashing hard onto the floor.
"YOUR NAME IS DAMIAN, YOU SAY. YOU'RE NOTHING BUT AN UNWANTED PRICK. I GAVE YOU SHELTER, I FED YOU, AND DRESSED YOU, MOTHERFUCKER. AND THIS IS THE THANKS I GET... BY TRYING TO KILL THE ONLY ONE WHO WANTED YOU."
The lady said as she screamed aloud in anger, and the other kids came to check it out. They thought the noise was the lady throwing Damian again.
"YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A MONSTER. YOU WILL NEVER BE ANYTHING BESIDES A MONSTER, AND I'M DOING YOU A FAVOUR BY SELLING PIECES OF YOU." The lady said in anger as she smiled while saying that.
"You're right. I am a monster, but I ain't a big monster like YOU. Even the devil learns from YOU," Damian said as he stood up from the floor.
The lady tried to attack him but tripped because of her injured leg. Damian saw his opportunity and ran to grab the pan from the stove.
He hit the lady in the head over and over again for an hour. The lady died from being smashed in the head multiple times.
One child came and stabbed Damian in the heart from the back in fear of him.
Damian turned around and saw who it was. 'I will heal from that,' he thought to himself, but he realised he was not healing from that.
He fell backwards onto the knife, and it came through to the other side.
'You've gotta be kidding me. I only heal if I'm alive. WHAT KINDA BULLSHIT IS THAT?' Damian thought to himself as he lay in a pool of his blood.
Then some kid grabbed a lighter to try and light Damian and the lady on fire, but they only grabbed a lighter because they thought a person burns when they're lit on fire. They saw the lady light Damian on fire once, and they didn't realise the lady poured gasoline first.
Boom
They lit the fire, and the entire kitchen exploded, as well as the entire orphanage, because the gas was left on by the lady.
Everyone was on fire, and the entire building was burning to the ground.
1980, An orphanage got burnt to the ground and everybody died in it.
