Hey everybody this is my second chapter YES. I hope you all like my OC Hollow, cause he can get really... well must not say. I am still in the process of deciding whether he remembers his name or not, oh well only time will tell ON WITH THE STORY.

Ch.2 Darkness Remains

"This is all your fault." said a voice in the dark. "You have doomed us all". came another voice. "thou art a pathetic lonely psychopath."

These were the voices Hollow could hear in the dark place he was in. Hollow had thought that if he rekindled the flame then he would be redeemed but like always he was wrong. If he had known that he would spend eternity in this gods forsaken place he would have told himself that, no matter what he did he would always be a caged bird left to suffer in the dark alone. Even though his situation was one of pain and anguish he was at least glad that he kept his promise to the knight, and looking back it was one hell of an adventure.

He had escaped the asylum, rang the bells, visited his home in undead burg, met the gods of old, realized the world was nothing but an illusion created by one of the children of Gwyn, defeated demons created by the false flame, met strange characters like his good friends Solaire, Siegmeyer, Queelaan, and Priscilla, made deals with the dark serpent Kaathe, and obtained all the lord souls given to the lords of Lordran.

Hollow had to admit that he had lived and died the adventure of lifetimes, looking back to his journeys begining everything up until this point was worth it, and if he had the choice he would do it all over again. Sadly such a wish could never happen because again he was caged, left to wait for the end of the world, this was and always would be his fate.

"You are worthless no one will ever love thee."

Hollow could not have agreed more, because by the end of his journey, he realized that he not only made friends but lost them as well. It was as if the whole world had conspired against him, he lost his family, would never see his friends again, and in the end died alone, with no one to celebrate his memory or know it was him who kept the flame lit. Though, he did think it was funny how he could only remember little details of his past life before he went hollow.

All he could really remember was what he used to be, that he had a family, and that he somehow committed great crimes, but there was nothing specific about them. He knew he had done some kind of wrong but could not remember what it was, he remembered that he was a thief in the thieves guild but could not remember the acts he committed, he remembered his family but he did not know anything about them.

Out of everything he had done in his past life Hollow could not remember all the acts that lead to his death, and imprisonment in the undead asylum, there was only one memory he could go on but that memory was of when he and his younger brother had fought and afterwards never saw each other again. From this memory Hollow had came to the conclusion that even with these memory's just being there in his head, that he was always alone and that nothing he said or could do would make any difference, being that he was trapped in this dark abyss for eternity.

"Forever without light."

At this point Hollow really didn't care what the voices said anymore, he had been stuck in the darkness for quite some time now, and just accepted what the voices had said about him. As he laid himself down to try and rest he remembered something that really ticked him, he could not sleep because there was no sleep for the dead. Then Hollow was back on his feet with his scythe Dex striking at nothing in particular, the fact that there was nothing at all to hit only deepened Hollow's rage filled insane rampage.

He was stuck and this was his punishment, all resolve he had been thinking before, were again forgotten when Hollow, again gave in to the madness. Hollow then let out an insane war cry, and tried looking for the source of the voices, but again his search would be in vane because the voices had no body or physical form, it was just him in that dark place.

"COME AT ME DEMONS I'LL SWALLOW YOUR SOULs." shouted Hollow in another one of his insane rants, but again no one answered. At this point Hollow fell to his knees, and begged like a child, "Please" he whimpered "Whoever is listening my soul is yours, ask of you will of me, just please end my torment." Hollow began to weep because he knew no one would heed his prayers, but in that moment of despair a blue light had formed right in front of him, at this Hollow's eyes widened he could not believe it, his prayers were actually heard.

"Go in to the light, the dark no longer holds you." said a voice.

Hollow was only too happy to oblige this person, god, whatever the force was, his nightmare was finally over. Hollow with his scythe Dex in hand started running in to the light at full speed not caring where it lead him just as long as it was not this place. As soon as Hollow entered the portal he found himself falling, at the end of the fall he saw light actual light for the first time, Hollow's smile only grew wider.

When Hollow finally reached the light he was thrown in to a place covered in sand, as he picked himself up he took notice of his environment, and saw endless valleys of sand. In one direction he saw a kingdom from the looks of the tall walls and buildings. At this moment Hollow finally realized what his strange friend Solaire was trying to tell him, the sun did give off warmth and happiness.

It gave off so much of the feeling Hollow actually basked himself in its full glory. His entire body was now facing the sun and taking in it's wonderful ray but for Hollow it was a little difficult to see. It was because he had been in darkness so long that his eyesight was fuzzy, but it was not something to worry about his eyes would eventually adjust and he would be able to make his way to civilization.

As soon as his eyes adjusted he took notice to a sight that was very peculiar. The sun had a face and it was laughing, Hollow had never heard or seen such a thing, 'What is this strange land.' thought Hollow with shock at what he was seeing. There was only one way to find out, he would have to travel to the kingdom, the journey there would probably take the whole day, but that was no problem, Hollow needed answers, and he needed to know what he had gotten himself in to.
