The Love of Music's Magic

Chapter 1: The Innocent One?

On this rainy night in April Eric goes out for a walk in the rain. He walks alone in the rain, wandering aimlessly in the dark. His face hidden by his hood, with what looks like rain running down his face. He walks to his hideout, inside an abandoned warehouse, and sits on the edge of the roof looking down below as the cars wiz pass. And he then says "Why….why are they doing this? We've done nothing, have we? We've done nothing wrong, so why are we being punished!!?" Eric yells at the top of his lungs as if the havens above could hear him. And then suddenly a voice is heard, "And that's where you're wrong Eric." Eric quickly jumps up and turns to face the direction in which the voice came. "Who's there….show yourself!?" Eric yells. "As you wish, Eric." Says the voice and John steps out of the shadows. "Oh, hello Mr. John, Eric said. "Might I ask what you are doing here and how you got here?" "Well those are easy questions," Said Mr. John. "I followed you here and I'm here to kill you." Eric goes to sit back down. "I'm not in the mood for jokes or games Mr. John, and you should know why, so could you just please go away and leave me alone" said Eric. Then Eric suddenly hears a gunshot go off and as the sound hangs and rings in the silence of the night his left forearm goes numb. With his eyes wide open in shock Eric reached over with his right hand and touched his forearm, it hurt when he touched it, and he then brought his hand up to his face to see it covered in blood. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" Eric screams at the top of his lungs. And he turns once again to face Mr. John. And asks "Did you just…" Mr. John cuts him off and says "Yes Eric, I just shot you" He says with his eyes full of anger and hate. "I tried to get you away sooner…but you kept coming around and then my daughter told me that you two were dating!! I didn't want to kill you but now I have no other choice and because I really want to kill you and all the other people like you!!!" He then goes to shoot the gun again but when he fires it nothing comes out for the gun is twisted and bent. In shock Mr. John says "What the hell!? What did you do, you freak!?" Then a dark and evil presence fills the air and then a demonic and evil voice begins to speak "You hurt this innocent young man, he is completely unarmed, after all that he's put up with!! Now you will be the one who gets hurt!!!" Mr. John's left leg breaks and he falls to the ground screaming in pain. Eric then looks into Mr. John's eyes, Eric's eyes now blacker than the night, causing pain to plus through Mr. John's body. "Now finish him once and for all" says the demonic voice. "No…..NOOOO!!!!! I…I can't! I won't!!!! Now go away!!!!" Eric yells. And then the demonic voice and its presence vanished, as if it were never there. He then runs over to Mr. John and puts both his hands on him. Eric then says "Memwarar." Eric then looks down at his arm to see that it's completely healed. "My arm…is healed?" he says as he puts his hood back on. And as he begins to walk away a song fills the air over Mr. John's unconscious body. "There it is again" Eric says. And he walks away thinking to himself "He really tried to kill me, but why?"
