Summery: Sequel to Darkness Awake. Harry has left Hogwarts and now that he is free from the watchful eyes of Dumbledore and the confines of the school he can now fully follow Darkness. The Ministry and the world think he is a murderer, Dumbledore wonders how Harry could have fallen so far, and Voldemort still wants him dead. Darkness however is creating her own plans, some that could very well be apocalyptic.

I would love to thank my wonderful Assistant and Editor, omh666, for everything he has done in helping me on this story!! Thanks again!

When Harry or Draco or anyone else is in demon transformation I will use their demon name so that way you will know if they are in demon form or not. Harry = Maloth and Draco = Falrin and Ora = Morikari

Darkness Reigns

Cold winds blew as the sun sank below the horizon, night slowly took its grasp on the world, and a pale half-moon rose into the sky. Nature however was silent, void of life, not even the crickets made a sound…a predator was lose this night, waiting and watching.

A dark figure stood upon a hill over looking a small village. The figure wore a solid black cloak that seemed to not only blend into the shadows but be on of them itself. The hood was pulled up over the figure's head, the face completely hidden in the darkness. The cloak however, was partially open to show what the figure was wearing; black pants that were made out of some strange material and a black sleeveless shirt made out of some unknown hide. The clothes were close fitting, showing off the well built form, and also seemed to blend into the shadows. A pair of black, almost knee high, flat boots finished the outfit.

Another figure approached the first from behind, their bare feet leaving no trace upon the ground. However unlike the hooded figure, this person was a woman and didn't seem affected by the cold; at least that is what the outfit she was wearing said…if it could really be called clothes. The woman was wearing a long black dress made out of some kind of thin and sheer silk, the V neck went clear down to her belly button, two open slits in the side went from her ankles to mid hips, her sides were exposed, and the outfit was sleeveless. Flowing long midnight black hair fell all the way down to her knees and the blood red of her lips and nails reflected in the moon light. Everything about this women screamed sex goddess except for her eyes which were red and void of all emotion.

The woman's cold eyes settled upon the village, "She lives here?" The woman asked. "Yes or at least she did at some point, weather she still does I don't know. But I shall find out Darkness." The cloaked figure stated. His voice held little emotion. The woman, now identified as Darkness, shifted her gaze from the village to the young man. "Remember Harry that you will have to offer her something in return for her answers." Darkness informed. The man, Harry, nodded. "I shall return before sunrise." Harry stated before making his way down the hill and to the little village. Darkness stood watching for a moment before vanishing.

Harry made his way silently through the run down village. Almost all of the small homes were falling apart and some were even abandoned but Harry paid little attention to these houses, he was headed for the only house that had smoke coming from the chimney. He stopped before the house to fully take it in. It was small like the others and in need of repair but not as much. It was built from brick that long ago faded to almost a dull grey, the windows had boards over them, the yard was over run with weeds, and the stone fence was falling down.

Slowly Harry stepped over the broken little gate and approached the door however before he could knock it opened and standing in the doorway was the woman he was looking for. She had long white hair that fell to the middle of her back, her eyes were gray-blue, and her skin was a light cream colour. She wore a simple lose white dress that looked like it was medieval. She was young however, around the age of 24; at least that is how old she looked. "Well don't just stand there, come in." She snapped. Harry stepped into the house and she closed the door behind him. "Lady Cresant, I have come to ask…" "Yes I know why you have come." The woman, Cresant, answered.

Cresant turned her back to him and walked further into the room. Once her back was turned you could see the folded white leathery wings that extended from her shoulder blades. Harry followed her into the little living room where the fireplace was but he didn't look at anything else other than Cresant. "Will you tell me what I want to know?" Harry asked. Silence held the room for a while as Cresant watched the fire, "Perhaps if you are willing to give me what I want…you know the saying, 'give and you shall receive,' the same applies here and I think you know what I want. Will you give it to me in exchange for the knowledge I have?" Cresant asked. Harry smiled, "Of course Lady Cresant." Harry stated with a mock bow. The fire light reflected in Cresant's eyes as she slowly smiled.
