Darkness
It's
not evil...people just fear it...
To be alone...in the
dark...feeling unsafe...
Not knowing where to go...or where you're
at...
Some people crave it...
Some
people avoid it...
Some fight it...
Some get lost in it...
It's
a place...a thing...a thought...a life....
Either way...when there
is light...there will always be...
Darkness
~~~
"What?"
Said an unknown voice. "Darkness? I don't want that!"
"I'm
in it again, aren't I?" Said another voice.
"It's not
my FAULT!"
"Huh?
Who is that?" Asked the first voice.
"I SAID IT'S NOT
MY FAULT!!!"
"What?! I don't understand!" The first
voice yelled again.
"Waa-what are you doing . . . to me?"
The first voice asked as if he/she was about to pass out.
"St-stop . . . I-I don't w-wanna . . . "
Your head
felt light headed.
"...Die...help
me...somebody....please...."
Suddenly a blinding light
flashed out of nowhere.
"NO! DON'T DIE! NOT ANOTHER ONE!"
You felt yourself in a cold world, you were shaking violently. Until you noticed that you weren't shaking.
"Hey!
HELLO!? Are you alright?"
Someone said almost yelling, very
close to your ear.
"Knock it off Angeal, you'll break her neck." Said another man.
"What? It was working the last time." The one named Angeal responded.
Your eyes were opened, but barely, you could still see a blur of three people.
"She's . . . alive!?"
You started looking around, slowly. You seemed to be in a temple of some sort, and the ceiling directly above you had a hole.
A man who wore red knelt down to you. "Can you talk?"
He asked. You looked at him, he was still waiting for a response. You wanted to answer, but rather it was the inability to speak, or this agonizing pain of super dry throat, tounge, & lips. But you did get a taste of something bitter and sweet. All you got out was a feeble, cracky, sqeaky; 'ahhh...'.
"We better take her back to HQ." Said a man with long silver hair. Just then, a monster had blasted through a wall and roared at your direction.
Your heart blasted with fear, you struggled to move or run away from it. Yet you couldn't move, it took you a while to notice that Angeal was still holding you.
"Why was it following you?"
He asked you. You once again made another feeble mew except it was a bit louder.
"Why were they following you?" The man in red asked you.
More and more of those things started popping out of nowhere.
"They must hunt in packs." The silver haired man said, withdrawing his sword. "Genesis, you and Angeal take the girl back to HQ. I'll clean this mess here."
He charged after the beings and finished a quarter of them in half a second. But when more charged after you, Genesis withdrew his rapier, sliding his hand across it making red symbols appear.
"Guess you need help."He smirked,using fire to explode a few of the monsters in the air, but stayed close to you, attacking any monster that came close.
"Don't worry sweetie, just stay behind me, and don't get in the way."
Angeal smiled and let you free. He too withdrew his large sword and with great force, attacked any that tried to get close to you. But no matter how man times they threw around, more and more of the monsters came out of the temple door, the holes in the walls, and ceiling, and the ones that were knocked down eventually got up. After hours of fighting and protecting, no matter how many cuts they got, what limb they lost, or how many times they were slammed somewhere, they monsters kept coming.
"Damn!
These things won't die!"
Angeal growled.
"Did you
take something from them?!"
He asked you. Just when you were
about to (try and) say no, one of those things jumped after you,
Angeal slashed it away, but another one came from behind you and had
it's jaws peirce into your right shoulder, followed by digging it's
claws, literally into your left ribs and the right of your stomach.
This time, besides a small 'mew', you screamed at the top of your
lungs, it hurt to scream, but you were desperate to take the thing
off of you.
"Shit! No!"
Angeal muttered. He wanted to
come to your rescue, but he was busy blocking some monsters, the man
in black with long silver hair was too far away to help, and had his
own troubles, but Genesis had come to pry it off of you. He sliced
off the arms, then the head, but unlike the arms, the head still
gnawed on your shoulder.
The next thing shot down your spine like
icicles trying to carve through your bones, you heard a crunching,
crack/pop on your shoulder. You didn't want to look, but you did
scream again. This time when you screamed your throat felt like
somebody was using hooks to pull your lungs out, scratching your
throat at the same time.
Genesis didn't want to cut your arm off,
so he decided to use his hands and widen the mouth, the teeth cutting
deep into his hands in the process. He threw the head away from the
two of you, then smiled.
"Hey, you ok?"
You stared at him in astonishment. His hands were shaking a little.
"Uh-ah..."
He chuckled at your face.
"Don't worry I'll be fi..."
"A-are you...INSANE?!"
"I hate to break the little romantic scene but, uh, Genesis...here...NOW!"Angeal interrupted right before he was piled by the monsters.
Before
he got back up, Genesis turned back to you."Call me if you need
me. Heh, or scream."
He smiled.
You stared, you were still frightened about what just happened a few seconds ago. The pain in your shoulder bothered you, so you slowly looked to your right . . . you covered your mouth, trying not to scream again.
"Oh
my God!"
Was all that came out under your muffled voice,
while tears ran down your face. Your arm was still attached to you,
but your flesh was gone right down to the bone.
'What
am I doing here? What am I doing here?!...'
That
thought had kept running through your mind as fast as your heartbeat.
But before you could think it again, something had caught the corner
of your eye. A hole in the wall, and nobody or thing, was watching
you. You looked back at the small war, and you were right, nobody was
watching. So you crawled towards the opening, and once you were out,
you noticed it was snowing.
But it didn't matter, because when you heard roaring, you ran, and ran, and ran, and ran.
'What am I doing here?! Why are they chasing me?! Who were those guys?! Were they hunting me too?!'
All
these questions spilling out of you made your head hurt. But one
question scared you the most.
'Who...am I?'~Chapter End~
