Chapter 1: Begin
Tick tock tick tock tick tock ti-Ding, dong! Ding, dong! The grandfather clock, the lone item in the room (aside from the fireplace), was going off, until a small grenade made out of shadows went off inside of it, destroying the inside, shutting it up. "Fucking finally." A figure stood up, with black hair, which had a reflection of the moon's light reflection coming in from the window. Soon after, the figure walked over to the window, and looked out at the moon. Crash! The grandfather clock coming back together could be heard from behind the figure, and it's piecing back together could be seen from the dim light of the fireplace. It seemed that all of the pieces were being dragged back together by a black hole, and were slowly being put back together mid-air, then put down onto the floor, with a barely audible thud. The figure walked over to the fireplace, then a throne made out of shadows materialized right under him. He dropped down and sat on it. He stared at the fire, then created a small mirror.
He looked into it, and was not very surprised at what he saw. He had pitch black hair, red-orange orbs for eyes, and he wore a night-sky-colored long-sleeved shirt and pair of pants, which were the same color as the shirt. His left arm was covered in bandage-wraps. His neck had pitch-black marks all over it, and under the wraps of his left arm, more pitch-black marks could be seen. "Grrrr..." He threw the mirror out the window-or, to be more precise, through the window. "Kyaaaahh!" He heard the screams of what seemed to be a female. He walked over to the window, then yelled out "Go fuck off, you cunt! I don't want your company!" He threw a small shadow grenade that looked like a pumpkin out the window, then heard another, louder scream of fear.
"Go back to where you came from and die!" He slammed the window up, breaking it. While looking back to the fire, the man threw a shadow onto the fire, concealing it. Very soon after that, he jumped out the window. "Now... Time to have some fun..." He threw back a black orb at his house, which concealed it entirely. He put his head in his hands, then began to laugh maniacally. "Ha... Gahaha... Gahahahaha... Kyaaaaaahhahahahahahahahahaha!" The last few of his laughs sounded as though they were laughs of pain. "Let's have some fun, shall we!?" He ran off into the wilderness, blitzing aimlessly, only aiming for people-or to be more general, something breathing and alive.
A blonde guardian, Chung, shivered after suddenly getting the chills, grabbing the attention of the others in his group. "Chung, are you injured." Eve, the Nasod Queen, and girlfriend of Chung, asked out of concern, although it sounded more like a statement. "I'm fine, Eve. Thanks for caring." Chung had emphasized caring, while glaring at Elsword, the musclehead of the group, who was currently arguing with Aisha, the grape-headed mage.
"Shut the hell up, you hotheaded idiot!" Aisha whacked Elsword on top of the head, with her staff. "Why don't you just shut the fuck up, you little cutting-board!" This earned him another whack on the head. "Grrrrr..." This growling could be heard from the elf, Rena. "Enough!" She slammed her foot down, causing the two idiots to stand at attention. "Language!"Rena slapped them both in the face. "Why can't you just learn to enjoy each other's company, and be nice!?" She walked away, but quickly threw her blade, Erendil, at Elsword, causing him to fall on the ground. Soon after this, she walked over to the blade, and picked it up.
"Rena, watch out!" Ara Haan, soul survivor of the Haan Dynasty, jumped out in front of Rena, and blocked an attack from the shadow using male.
"Who the hell do you think you are, blocking my attack!" Ara began to think that voice-it's him-! "You're that guy who threw that bomb at me earlier tonight!" Ara began to scream at that guy, but was cut off by another bomb exploding in front of her, causing her to blow back, and hit a tree. "Should I remember you?" was the reply from the shadow-man. "Why you-Spell: Thunder!" Ara struck the shadow man with a lightning bolt. The shadow man just barely dodged the attack. Right after this attack, Eun, the demon fox whom Ara made a pact with, took over. "Ara, I shall lead you. I sense that this man's aura is is... Dangerous. It is the powers of a higher-up shadow demon, but there was only one in existence."
"Looks like you've done the same kind of research I've done, fox-girl. Now... Before I kill you... Tell me your name, and I shall do the same." The shadow man snapped his fingers, and a pack of grenades appeared, attached to his pants. "Fine... I'll answer your last request... I am Eun, an ancient demon spirit. And the other girl is Ara, the last surviving member of her whole clan, accept for her brother, who became a demon commander. Now, give me your name, half-breed." THe shadow man glared at her, then looked her right in the eyes.
"Half-breed? Really? Wow. You know your stuff. But, I'll oblige. My name is Ren Shedo. Pleased to make your soon-to-be-dead acquaintance." Ren grinned, then blitzed towards Eun, putting his hand on her shoulder, then jumping over her, dropping a few grenades. When they exploded, poisonous gas spewed out, causing some of the gang to faint. All of them, except for Chung and Rena, had indeed fainted, and were slowly being poisoned from having breathed the gas in."Awww... No... All of your friends are dying. And now, I wonder what you'll do to me for it." Ren grinned maniacally, then simply turned around, and began to walk away.
"I'll end you! Dread Chase!" Chung fired a set of missiles, which all honed in on Ren. Ren simply side stepped each and every one of them, making them run into shadow copies of himself. "Hah! You were off guard-Furious Engage!" Rena rushed towards Ren, catching him off guard, and cutting into his right arm, and ripping part of his clothes off in the process.
"You whore! Shadow Well!" Ren threw a small shadow-orb onto the floor right in front of where Rena was headed, and when it collided with the ground, it became a shadowy hole. Once Rena stepped onto it, it began to turn her body into a shadow itself, which would only last about two minutes. "Satellite Rain!" Chung slammed his destroyer onto the ground, summoning a a torrent of artillery, including grenades, rockets, bombs, and lasers. "Graaaahhh!" Ren screamed in agony as the lasers hit him all over, causing his skin to begin to become burned, until finally, his arm wraps untangled, showing pitch-black marks in the shape of lightning bolts and fire.
"You bitch! Shadow Technique-Quicksilver Pandemonium!" Ren raised his hands, causing the whole area surrounding them to turn into a pitch-black battlefield. Then, he ran as fast as lightning, and punching Chung, continuously. Chung's aromor began to turn into shadows, contaminating his body, soon to kill him. "Burn in a hell made of shadows!"
Hey, everyone! It's whitemist0 here, and I just wanted to say that I'm really happy to create this story. There's not much else that I've got to say, except for the fact that Omega Endrew's OC will be in this story, so... Thanks for reading! All reviews will be appreciated! Also, I'm not sure if I should pair my character with Elesis, or Ara/Eun.
