I decided to make a sequel because I realized I never mentioned the book with the raven on it ever again so this story will have something to do with that book. Enjoy!


"It seems that our ruler has fallen victim to the light. How disgraceful." a man said. He was wearing a red cloak.

"Yes, but he had the book. Now that he is gone where has the book gone to?" questioned another hooded man. His cloak was dark purple.

"It must still be on the planet. We must retrieve it immediately. That book contains knowledge that we don;t even know of. If not handled correctly the entire universe could be destroyed!" the man in the red cloak stated angrily.

"I will retrieve it." said a boy. He sat on a desk in the shadows. He was much smaller than the others. Surely he was younger. His cloak was blue. "I will get that book back and become the new ruler of the Dark Raven Council."

"You cocky brat. What makes you think you could retrieve the book that easily?" questioned a man wearing a green cloak. The man with the red cloak placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Shh! Do you know who that is? He is practically the descendant of the Dark Raven! But he was rejected as a ruler due to his age." the red cloaked man said. The green cloaked man fell silent.

"No objections I see. I will be heading off. See you later!" he said his voice cheerful yet cold. He suddenly disappeared in the purple and black flames.

Shade's POV

We were back at school. No one seems to know of the incident that happened a long time ago. It's already been 2 months since that day. Time flies by to quickly. I thought as I yawned. I walked through the halls and heard the whispers of the students along the way. It seems they're surprised that I'm actually appearing in the hallways. I caught a glimpse of my red-eyed friend up ahead.

"Oi! Bright!" I said as I put my hand on his shoulder.

"Hey Shade. I'm really surprised to see you walking around the halls now a days."

"You too? Man! I don't understand what's so surprising about it!" I sighed.

"It's cause you suddenly started coming to the classes and traveling the hallways more often." Bright said. "Is it because of her?" Bright teased. I flinched.

"N-No! Of course not!" I said. "Anyways, hows it going with Fine?" I whispered to Bright. He immediately blushed.

"You know that were not even together! Why would you ask that?!" Bright said with embaressment. I chuckled.

"Oh! Hey Bright, hey Shade!" Fine said while running towards us. When she caught up Bright immediately blushed more. "Bright, do you have a fever? Your face is all red..." Fine said trying to look at Bright's face. But he avoided any kind of eye contact with her. "Have you guys seen Rein anywhere? I haven't seen her since this morning... I'm afraid that she might have gotten lost..." Fine sighed.

"I think I saw her at the library. I'll go with you to check." Bright offered. Fine nodded and followed Bright to the library. They left me alone. I guess I'll just go check out the building again. I sighed. I have been visiting the building that collapsed for quite some time now hoping to find something useful. I traveled to the forest in the back of the school.

When I was about to reach the building I suddenly tripped over something and fell.

"Ow. What the heck did I trip over?" I said as I looked back. I noticed it was a book with a black raven mark on it. Has this always been here? I thought as I picked it up. It was worn out and covered with dirt. The front cover had mud stuck to it as well. I should show this to the others. I thought as I got up and went back to school. The library wasn't to far from the ground so I climbed up the wall and through the window. Bright, Rein, and Fine were all sitting in one table together. "OI! BRIGHT! YOU FOUND REIN I SEE!" I yelled over to them. They stared at me as if I was stupid. I walked over to them and sat at the table.

"What do you think you're doing Shade?! This is a library for pete's sake!" Rein scolded.

"It's only a library. Anyways I found something at the incident." I whispered.

"Really? What, what?" Fine asked eagerly. I took it out and placed it at the center of the table.

"I know this mark! It was the mark of the front door that lead to the inside of the building!" Bright said as he reached for it. Right when he touched it it glimmered a bit. "Woah!" Bright said as he immediately retreated.

"I've seen this book before. Ash was the one who had this book! He always carried it around with him!" Rein stated.

"This book gives me the chills. What do you think it does though? If Ash always carried it around it must have been something very important..." Fine said, her words trembling a bit.

"I'm not sure what it could do. But this isn't the first time it has started glowing like this. I saw a light like that when Rein was confronted by Ash at school. Except it was much brighter than when Bright touched it." I stated. Rein nodded.

"Maybe it tells you how strong the darkness in your heart is? I mean I haven't lived the way Rein did so the light wouldn't be that blinding." Bright said. We all decided to test it out. We each took turns touching the book. First was Fine. Hers was brighter than Bright's though. Next up was me. I touched it and it started to glow brightly. Even more than Fine or Bright's.

"How bad was Shade's past?" I heard Fine whisper.

"I only know some sad parts. I don't know why his glows so much." Bright whispered back. Then she stared at me with a strange look.

"Shut up!" I said annoyed. "Anyways, Rein it's your turn." I said. Rein slowly reached out her hand. She never technically touched it yet but it had already started to glow. When she came into contact with it it showed a blinding purple light. She immediately released the book and sat back down.

"Luckily no one else was in the library." Bright said calmly.

"So it seems you still have darkness in your heart Rein." Fine said sadly.

"Of course. That darkness is something that is apart of my past. It is something that I can never get rid of, no matter how hard I try." Rein said while smiling sadly. I put my hand on her hat and pulled it over her face. "Oof!"

"Idiot! That was something in the past. As you grow older you're heart will start to fill up with more light. It will be fine so don't worry."

"I guess your right. But now what are we going to do with this book?" Rein said.

"We should dispose of it before something bad happens." Bright suggested.

"Yeah. We already had enough trouble with the darkness. We don't want to incur it's wrath again." Fine sighed. I nodded. But something about it seemed tempting to read.

"I will dispose of it." I offered. "It will be troublesome if the people who regularly attend class don't show up." I said as I grabbed the book. I walked towards the window and jumped out. I ran to the cherry blossom tree and decided to try and read it. I wonder what is written inside?


I keep getting lost part of the way. I have so much work... Also thanks for the reviews on my other stories! I'll try and update as quickly as I can!
