Angel Of Darkness
Prologue
All alone in the endless sea of darkness, a pale light flickers, it's glow slowly being devoured by the depth of the shadows. A small spark shimmers from within the fading light. That single, insignificant spark was about to change the world, as we know it. The darkness devoured the light, leaving the spark adrift in space; slowly the spark drifts close to a blue and green planet. Closer to the surface a small shape is seen swirling inside the spark⦠A wizard!
"Oh Kit are you sure you don't see him?" Nita struggled to keep her friend from plummeting back down to earth as he groped amongst the branches. Kit's foot landed hard on her right shoulder, "Hey watch it!" The leaves that surrounded his upper body muffled Kit's response. Don't worry Neets I'll have him down quicker than you can say... Hey watch where you're grabbing!
Nita blushed slightly, and removed her hand from Kit's butt. After about twenty seconds Kit motioned that he wanted to come down. Nita was only too happy to help; they sat panting slightly on the ground. "So why did you have to tell him it was bath day?" Kit groaned and buried his head in his hands. He was asking where we were going and it sort of um... slipped.
Nita cringed and leapt up at a rather loud complaint from her father's flower garden. Ponch. She ran towards the garden in time to see his tail disappear behind a lily, smiling at Kit she loped away while he came up from behind. She whispered to the plants and they all fell down reveling a rather mournful pair of brown eyes. Kit lunged at ponch and managed to rap his hands around the dog's collar before he disappeared in a flash of light. No again! When did ponch use his powers for such silly reasons? Nita sighed and tried to contact Kit, only to get a grinding static that singled he was out of range, she asked the flowers to stand straight again and went inside to find some lunch.
It had been a just about a year, the house still felt empty from her mother's absence, Nita sighed and bite into the tuna sandwich, making a face at the taste. A loud sound filled her ears, "Dairine can't you keep it down!" Then a sickening realization struck her, Dairine isn't here, and she had left with dad this morning. Then what is that sound?" Nita raced out into the front yard, she looked up in time to see a comet heading straight for Tom and Carl's house. Nita took off running, but deep in her mind she couldn't help but wonder if this comet was just a new creature needing help, or some young wizard's magic gone horribly wrong.
Nita didn't stop to open the gate; she just leapt over it and kept up her pace till she ran right into Tom's back! "Oh Nita just the wizard I was looking for!" Tom's voice was cheerful, which really didn't make much sense when compared to the massive hole that was still smoldering in his back yard. Carl's head appeared from the edge of the crater, and he whistled, Nita and Tom came closer. Carl was standing atop what appeared to be the remains of a sphere, inside it a young girl with flaming red hair lay curled up asleep. Nita was a lose for words as she stared, the young girl stirred and began to open her eyes; Nita screamed and tripped in her desperation to get away from the girl. Carl's face was twisted in pain and Tom simply stared; the girl's eyes were exact reflections of the Lone Power's.
