Nightmares of a Sorcerer

Chapter 1

Just to let you people know that I'll be absent for three days because I'm going on vacation with my

family in Lake George. So, it might take me a bit of a while to get this story done. If any of you

could get a chance as to send me a review as a "Welcome Home" gift. I'd really appreciate it. Hope

you like the first chapter.

On a dark, cold, and windy night, there laid a black, marble castle with

purple flags on the towers. There were also a lot of grave stones surrounding the yard. And bats

were flying across the sky. Also, there were two huge zombies guarding the castle.

What was inside the castle you may ask. Well, there is only one person

in charge of that. And that's a wolf with dark powers. He wore clothes stained in blue and green

and a black cape with a hood.

The wolf was with his two henchmen, which were imps, looking for a

special person with his powers. However, he was struggling in frustration, for he couldn't find that

person anywhere.

He growled, "Where is she?! I've spent fifteen years trying to find my

soon-to-be child. Unfortunately, I haven't and it's really starting to tick me off!"

"Um, boss," asked a blue imp, "how exactly will you know what the child

looks like when you see her?"

The wolf sighed and turned to the imp. "Ratchet, don't you know

anything?"

Ratchet hesitated. "Uh…"

"Master Venom," said a pink imp, "perhaps it's best if you let me explain



the rule to Ratchet. I do have a high IQ after all."

Venom sighed again. "Very well, Lawrence. Go ahead."

"Thank you." Lawrence faced Ratchet and cleared his throat. "You see

Ratchet, since Master Venom was cursed by the Diamond of Darkness, he has its symbol on his

chest, just like you and I do. So, the child will have one as well and that's how he'll know which

one's the right one. Get it, now?"

"Oh," said Ratchet. Then, he lost it and said, "Wait, what?"

"Ratchet, you're so stupid," said Venom.

"Well, why did you have to wait fifteen years for the child to be here?"

Venom shrugged. "Because, obviously, Hannah broke her promise to me

and didn't hand her over to me. So, I have to search for her myself. But, I can't seem to find her."

"Then, why don't you use the Diamond of Darkness' power to spice up

your powers a little bit?"

The idea hit Venom's mind. "You know, that's a very good idea, Ratchet.

For once, you've thought of something."

"Thanks, boss."

Venom held his hands in the air, exposing the black diamonds on his

palms. "Diamond of Darkness, show me the girl." Suddenly, the diamonds began to glow and a

power screen appeared in front of the three monsters. It revealed a purple cat-girl with blue eyes

and orange hair, wearing a blue tank top. She also had a black diamond on her chest. (A/N: Can

you guess who that is? Send a review and give me the answer.)

"It's her," said the two imps, "that's the child you've been searching for!"

Venom couldn't help but stare at her. "She's so beautiful," he said.

"She's grown up since the last time I saw her." Then, he saw a magenta chameleon talking to the



cat. He was curious about him. "Who is that boy?"

"Who, Master Venom?" asked Ratchet.

Venom pointed to the screen. "That boy next to the girl."

Ratchet saw the chameleon. "Oh, you mean the purple iguana."

Venom faced Ratchet. "It's a chameleon, Ratchet. Besides, it's magenta."

"What's the difference?"

Venom changed the subject. "Forget it. I just want to know who he is."

Lawrence took out a little book. "Let me see." He flipped through the

pages until he found the right one. "Ah, here it is. According to my book of identifications, the

name of the chameleon is Espio. It says here that he's a well-trained ninja with killer-spy skills.

He also works at an office known as the Chaotix Detective Agency."

"Any other information about him?"

Lawrence checked the book again, but couldn't find anything. "No, I'm

afraid not, boss."

"Well, there has to be. This Espio character seems suspicious if you ask

me."

"Hey, I'm just a henchman. Don't ask me."

"But you were created as an intelligent one."

While Lawrence and Venom were having an argument, Ratchet looked at

the screen and saw something shocking to him. "Uh, boss?" he called out to his master.

Venom turned to the imp. "What, Ratchet?"

"There's something on the power screen that you probably don't want

to see."

Venom walked over to the screen. "What? Let me see." Ratchet moved



out of the way for Venom. When he saw what was on the screen, he gasped. It was the

chameleon and the cat kissing.

"Why is he kissing her?!" Venom asked.

"Uh…maybe because they're in love?" said Ratchet. "Why else would

they kiss?"

Venom faced the two imps. "That's not good because if they're in love,

then they'll get too close. And if they get too close, then I won't have to take the girl away and

claim her as my child when I take over this world!" Suddenly, something hit Venom's mind.

"Unless…"

"Unless what, boss?" asked Lawrence.

A huge smirk appeared on Venom's face. "Unless…we can get a way

to separate those two for good."

"Ooh, I like the sound of that," said Ratchet.

"So do I," said Lawrence.

"Yes, and I know just how to do it," said Venom. He started to chuckle

evilly. Then, it turned into an evil laugh. Ratchet and Laurence joined in too, even though they

didn't really know what their master was thinking of.

Horrifying so far, isn't it? If you think that was a creepy scene from Venom, think again.

HAHAHAHAHA!! See you in three days.
