Author's Note: Yo. Yes, we are awesome, I know. Just kidding. Alright this may not look like much now, but later, it will hopefully get better. So enjoy.

Prologue
There was darkness. But there was fire. It lit the whole night sky, the smell of burning buildings and human flesh in the air. Screams were heard in the mist of the darkness. One was running away from it all, the only lone survivor. The figure cloaked by darkness itself was hidden so well that no one noticed it ran by. Its breathing was rapid and its speed was quick for someone seemingly so small. Though the trick of the darkness could fool you, for it could be an adult figure.
Small droplets pelted to the ground, followed by another and more after. Rain came quickly and poured with all its might. It was as if it the world itself was crying for all those who died in that fire, the tears killing the burning ashes and decay, smoke rising from it. The figure kept running. Where was it going? One would wonder if they saw it running in the darkness.
No one would know though, for they were slaughtered one after another. That's why it was running, running from danger. Its feet slammed into the mud below it and splashes were heard everywhere, thunder cackled through the sky like a booming echo. Its vision was blurry from the rain and smoke in the air, irritating its eyes. It couldn't see where it was running to, though it heard voices. Everywhere.
The figure began to panic and ran faster, its cries desperate. Bigger footstep followed behind and voices were heard, though none familiar to the shadow figure. Lighting flashed across the sky brightening everything dark and one of the men saw him, his shadowed cloak gone, screaming away from the light before returning after the lightning disappeared.
"That's him!" The man called, whipping the reins for the horse to go after the figure. The figure ran desperately. Trying to find some way to escape, some way to live!
Running faster than he had intended the figure tripped over a root of a tree. He looked up and noticed that he was in a forest. Horses running not far from his tail, the figure quickly got up and ran again. Why was this happening to him? Why? The figure tripped again and his head hit something before landing on the cold, wet ground below him.
He wasn't sure what happened after that, but, the next thing he knew before he landed to the ground everything was black.
Author's Note: The next chapter might not come out very quickly since I have yet to re-type it AND Fanficismything takes forever to edit. Yes this is Shadow of Darkness 22.
Oh, one more thing. Can you guess who the person running away is?
R&R!
