(Chris point of view)
"this cant be happening..." after Daemon's confession I just started running, to where I did not know… I just ran until my legs gave in making me fall to my knees. I could only kneel there and breath as I felt my legs burn under me, my body aching in pain along with my heart. I grabbed my chest and squeezed my shirt nearly tearing it. "Dam it…"
I looked up and around me wondering where I was. When I noticed it I began to chuckle, I would end up here again… back in the same place I met him. The exact same fucking place! How much do I love him that my mind subconsciously run me to the park.
"Dam you Deamon!" Pissed off I punched the ground only for my hand to ache along with my feet. I took a breath and just laid down in the soft grass. I could only look up into the sky as the sun began to set setting fire to the sky before fading away to bring in the night. I have no idea what time it was, then again why should I care if it is getting late? Piper wouldn't and nether would Leo… but Wyatt might come looking for me… "Dam him."
Its not like he cares anyway. He can just sense me and orb my way if he wants… dam him! All the power in the world and he has to be an annoying stupid jerk…
"… He's not the only jerk." I ran my hands through my hair. How could I be so stupid, Daemon is sick and I'm acting like a little whiny brat! So what if my life sucks, he is worse off and I just left him there alone with Wyatt. "What the hell is wrong with me?"
'Good question child.' my eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when I heard it, a voice so thick and crackled that it sounded like someone being strangled with a mouth full of glass. I tried to lift my head but it was no use, something inside me kept me from moving, was my body so tired that I couldn't move?
"W… wh..." I tired to speak only to be silenced by a cold hand holding my mouth shut. I stared down only to see a long clawed thumb slowly stroking my cheek. I could feel the hairs on my body stiffen at every touch of the person as I tried desperately to move.
'Shhhhhh.' I looked up and down left and right trying desperately to find the owner of that cold hand only to see the stars shinning up above and the branch of a tree. What the hell was happening to me!? Why couldn't I not move? Dam it what's happening to me!?
'Nothing that was not meant to happen.' my eyes widened at his words. Could this guy… no this thing, be reading my mind? I felt a chuckle echo through my body as I felt it cress my shirt slowly ripping the cloth off me to touch my chest. Tears began to fall from my eyes, what ever this thing was doing I knew I may not live to see Daemon again… or Wyatt… I would not even be able to see the sun again.
'Silence!' something about what I thought made it angry, in it's anger it pushed my chest down forcing me to stop breathing. I could only let out a quick sob as I desperately willed myself to breath.
"P...lea…." my plea seemed to calm the thing as it released my mouth and stopped pushing down on my chest. I took in a gasp as it snickered and began to run it's hands around my body.
'don't fret little one. I will not kill you, I simply need something from you.' it explained but my head was buzzing as I tried to move any of my limbs just to twitch helplessly in it's clutches. I relented and just stayed put waiting for it all to end.
'So dramatic, you must learn not to use that pathetic thing beating in your chest. Yet it matters not… I'm here for one thing and one thing only… your body!' the hands that ran across my body suddenly stopped their touching and trusted themselves into my chest. I tried to cry out only to remain silent. The hands want deeper into my digging their way inside filling me with blinding cold. All I could do was hear the horrible cackle of the thing as I finally understood why I could not move or speak… this thing… this monster slowly making its way into me… it was fear.

(Wyatt's point of view)
To say Daemon's place was a dump would be mean… but for the love of god it was a dump! The lawn was dried up and full of weeds, the garage was half broken like some idiot drove into the door, and the smell of cat and dog pee was everywhere. Daemon smiled at me and rubbed the back of his neck embarrassed… couldn't blame him!
"Yeah… my place seen better days." understatement! I didn't want to be rude so I faked a smile and got out of the car opening the door for him and helped him to his feet.
"It's not that bad..." oh god that was a very bad lie… he chuckled at me and patted my shoulder.
"Oh it is! The bank actually might vacate us if we miss another bill… not that it should matter to me seeing as I will be… you know." I cringed at that and helped the guy inside trying hard not to make an ass of myself.
"So… you and Chris huh?" I said trying to hold in my breath as I opened the door only to be hit in the face with a wave of alcohol and cigarettes invading my noise.
"Yeah… I.. I really love him… but... I guess it doesn't matter." god I wanted to punch myself for how I treated him, god what kind of moron am I!? All the power in the world wont make me any smarter… I had to do something about his relationship with Chris.
"Don't worry, I'll talk to him. He'll come around, soon..." I didn't sound so confident and I guess he could tell. Thankfully he just sighed as he pointed me to his room. We crossed the hall to hear loud snoring sounding from the living room.
"Your dad a part time lawnmower?" I joked, that actually made him laugh, despite it being a horrible joke.
"He can get pretty loud huh?" I nodded and opened his room door, to my surprise it was actually clean! His room just looked so out of place that I had to do a double take. I sat him down on his bed and bit my lip. The loud snoring might end up keeping him up when he needed to rest and I didn't like that.
"Dam it! For get this!" I looked around and grabbed a backpack and started filling it with clothes.
"What are you doing?" I ignored his question and placed the backpack on and lifted him up bridle style and walked out the room.
"Taking you out of this hellhole! You need rest and relaxation and attention and I doubt your going to get it from that drunk." honestly I expected him to yell at me for insulting his father and home but he just laughed and laid in my arms contently.
"Thank you..." his voice was light and shallow as he started to dose off with a small smile on his face… Wait!
'How the heck am I going to explain this to Chris… then again how am I going to explain this to mom and dad… god why do I have to be so stupid!?'

(Daemon's dream)
"Months!" shouted a knight clad in dark armor. He stood along with his brothers surround in thick black trees. "it has been months since their deaths and yet this amulet still vexes me! Why would Artemis give us such a useless bobble when the whole kingdom is after us!?"
"Perhaps it is meant for sentiment?" said one of the dark clad men. The leader sighed and fiddled with the strange pendent in sorrow. Seeing this his brother's in arms surround him and placed their hands on his back.
"We know you loved him so. But do not forget we are here for you brother." the leader smiled back at his brothers and sighed lowering his head.
"Thank you. Even if there is only four of us, I know Artemis is watching over us," to their surprise the pendent glowed a dark blue and a stream of energy rushed from the knights into the pendent. It jumped out of his hands and landed in the grass vibrating and sparking with energy. "What is this!?"
'I am darkness.' from the pendent sounded a calm peaceful voice the men instantly recognized.
"Lord Artemis!" from the pendent rose a thick cloud that condensed into a small black sphere. The orb smashed down on the pendent shattering it into smaller fragments that all vanished in a puff of dust. The orb though black as the night shined with a blue aura of light. The leader of the knights approached the sphere and reached out for it.
'Stop!' the sphere shouted before the knight could touch it. 'Their is a cost.'
"A cost to what?" he questioned, the orb's blue glow resonated brighter at his words.
'Power.' it spoke slowly rising from the ground.
"What ever the price there is I am willing to pay!" said the knight confidently. "Name it!"
'Take me in your hands and your existence shall end. You will live only to die and die only to live. That is the way the darkness. Life is death and death is life. Will you give up your mortal form to ascend into the night? The choose is yours to either die by the sword, or live to die.' the dark clad men looked to each other for signs of hesitation. It wasn't until the leader spoke that they smiled in content.
"We died once and if this means living to see another night I would gladly die again… I will die for Artemis! I will die for my prince!" with that the man touched the orb.
'Then so be it. Blessed be children of the night.' dark lighting flashed from the orb coursing it's power into the knight. His armor slowly fell from his body and his flesh faded from his bones that shined a dark blue. There standing in front of his brothers stood the knight only bones and dark light. The knight lifted his skeletal hand and a dark cloth rapped itself around him in a robe of shadow.
"I..." the voice of the knight echoed with the power as he turned to his brothers standing tall and proud. "I am darkness."

(Daemon's point of view)
I woke up covered in sweat. My brain pounded in my skull telling me to not get up but I could not stand to dream anymore. I looked around and noticed I was on a couch. I guess Wyatt took me to his place before I passed out. Despite my body still aching I got off the couch and looked outside.
"That's Weird… what time is it?" I looked for a clock and found one on the wall ticking softly. "one o'clock pm…? Must be a bad clock.." it couldn't have been one pm it was still night outside. I quietly made my way outside and sat down on their porch looking out at the moon.
'Magnificent is it not?' I turned my head to see Chris looking up at the moon next to me.
"Wow you sacred me! Chris… how are you?" he didn't look back at me just… stared at the sky with a big smile on his face… "D… did your teeth get sharper?"
'Yes why thank you for noticing!' he faced me for only a second but my eyes widened in surprise when I saw his own.
"Y… Your eyes weren't always blue where they?" he shrugged at my question and continued to look into the sky. "Are you OK Chris?"
'I haven't been so OK as you said it. In thousands of years. Soon I shall feel even better, just a few more stars and the fun really begins.' if I wasn't worried before I was now. I slowly stood up and walked away from the guy making my way back inside. I closed the door and sighed looking out from the window seeing him just sitting there staring into the sky.
"You OK Daemon?" I nearly jumped out of my skin when Wyatt placed his hand on my back.
"Fuck dude!? What's with you Halliwell guys!?" I whispered slash shouted at him feeling thoroughly freaked out.
"My bad I didn't mean to scare you, what are you doing?" I took him by his arm and showed him Chris.
"Something's up with him. I think he might have lost it!" her frowned and opened the door much to my dismay.
"Noooooo." I could only watch as he started talking to him, I pressed my ear to the door and listened as best I could.
"Chris Daemon says your acting w…." the guy just stood there for a second dumbfounded.
'Oh.. it's you. If you want answers I suggest you turn on the contraption in the living quarters. It should give you what you wish to know.' Wyatt glared down at him and slowly walked to the door.
"Who are you?" he growled looking like he wanted to smash Chris's face in. I bit my lip and waited for Chris to answer.
'I believe it is channel seventeen. Make haste simpleton time is running out. Heheheheh.' Wyatt opened the door and closed it gently behind him walking to the T.V.
"What's going on? Is he…" I sut my mouth when he turned the T.V. on and switched the channle. Ther on the screen was a news reporter woman who looked like she was on the verge of tears in fear.
"I… It has been..." she paused to regain her composure and the camera man could be heard telling her to continue. "It has been seven hours since 6:17 AM in San Francisco. And as you can all see the sun… the sun is not in the sky."
"What!?" I shouted running to the window looking out into the streets seeing people walking out of their homes confused and scared.
"Our communication with NASA conforms that the sun… is not.. is… is no longer there. Along with most of the stars in the sky… these pictures were taken from the Astronauts on the NASA space station on the moon." to my horror the picture that showed up was of a completely black sky with only a handful of stars dotting around a satellite, but the next picture brought pure fear into my heart. "This next picture is disturbing you have been warned."
"What… the… Hell..." on the other side of the moon facing the earth was a large… god I cant believe I'm saying it.. a large smiling fanged face made entirely out of shadows that writhed like some kind of monster. Yet that was not the part that scared me… it was the fact that it was a stone's throw from the planet!
"NASA predicts on the speed on which it is falling, the moon will be crashing into… into the earth in a matter of hours.. and I… I… I CANT DO THIS!" the woman tossed her microphone at the camera shattering the glass and taking out the connection. The screen shined blue as both Wyatt and I stared at the screen speechless.
"!" Wyatt immediately stood up and walked out the door.
"Wait!" I ran after him but instantly fell to my knees in pain. I grabbed my chest and gasped out as I felt my heart constricting in my chest. "Gah.. Wy…. Chri..."
my voice creaked in my throat and I fell to the ground twitching in pain. My eyes slowly started to loose vision and I could feel my hear slowing to a stop. God no, not right now! I willed myself to stand up and started walking to the door I tried to open it but I missed the handle crashing into it with a thud. I held out for so long dam it! I can hold on for a few more hours! I willed my self up again and pulled the door open only for it to hold itself shut. I looked through the window to see Chris and Wyatt staring at each-other in some kind of trance.
A large flash of light blinded my eyes for a second and everything want silent. When the light faded I was surround in darkness. I could finally move I could finally speak in no pain and worse of all, I knew what it meant when a man dressed in a black robe stood at my side.
"No… Fuck no! Not yet dam it!" I screamed at the man and yelled in other hate yet it did not faze him. "Take me back dam it! He still needs me!"
'I can't, and he doesnt. Infact you will be seeing him along with everyone else in a matter of minutes." I could feel my eyes boil in their sockets with pure rage.
"I wont let it happen.. he wont die! I wont let you do it!" he laughed only making me hate him more right now.
'You cant stop me and it is not me who is doing this. Prince Artemis is doing exactly what he meant to do so long ago.' my eye brows rose when I heard that name, the very name plagued my dreams for as long as I could remember.
"So.. they were real..." I calmed myself as I started remembering things, across my eyes flashed a man with beautiful eyes and hair the color of the night sky. A pendent that shined like the moon and an orb that shined within it's own darkness. And an army of shadows that guarded him… no… that loved him more then life itself. "and now… I remember."
'Well it doesn't matter now. You are long over due, your kind has been mocking death for long enough. Come to the other side now or be stuck in the shadows for the rest of eternity… all… alone.' I chuckled at the idiot. He growled to himself and rose pulled me up by my collar. 'What is so funny!?'
"Don't you know?" I asked grasping onto my pendent as it glowed bright as a star. I could feel power rushing through my body echoing into the shadows all around me forming into skeletal beasts that pulled at the man dragging him away into the empty void screaming in rage. "In the darkness… your never alone."

(Wyatt's point of view)
I ran out to Chris or really that thing! And left Daemon inside where it would be safe and locked the door with my magic. Chris would never forgive me if something would happen to him and honestly nether would I. I stood in front of the demon inside my brother's skin shouted for it to get out. It just sat there and laughed at me.
'Do you really think you can order me around anymore dear brother? Do not delude yourself, my power always out matched yours, even in this mortal form and half of what I used to be I still have more magic in these little figures then you can ever hope to submit ever again!' I was caught off guard as he tossed me into the air and smashed me down onto the stone porch. If my magic didn't protect my body I would have been crushed right there. I stood to my feet and tried to grab him with my telekinesis only for him to shrugged it off like it was nothing.
"The hell are you!?" he laughed and pointed up at the sky and the slowly falling death ball that was the moon.
'I am the fury of the stars, the prince of all shadows and the very ruler of darkness itself.' he spoke like he was explaining this to a little kid. Whatever this thing was I already hated it. 'I am Artemis, the moon made real.'
"Don't fucking lie to me!" he smiled at me and shrugged.
'What makes you think I am lieing? The very sun is banished in darkness and the moon is about to end all life on my behalf! What part of that makes me any more less the prince of the moon?' I stood up and dusted myself off.'
"I heard the story, I know who Artemis was. He was a good kid who only wanted someone to love him. He fought a whole kingdom to find that love, he fought death itself to save countless lives. While you..." I growled feeling anger rise inside me. "You are nothing but a fucking monster wearing my brother's skin! Get the hell out of him now or else!"
'…' the thing lowered his head for a moment and then looked up at me, it's confident smile gone leaving an emotionless stare. 'No, you come in here and make me.'
"Wh..." before I could do a thing the monster's eyes widened and flashed a wave of darkness out of them blinding me. I felt myself fall to my knees just staring into the cold void that was his eyes still visible in the complete and total darkness. "Chris..."

(Wyatt's point of view)
I opened my eyes to see myself sitting on a really comfortable chair. Confused I stood up and found myself wearing an awesome suite of shining gold armor and a bright red cape that felt so soft in my hand, on my side was a bright silver sword and on my shoulder rested a golden shield with a familiar sun insignia etched into it in gold and rubies.
"Wow!" I said to myself feeling awesome… until I looked into the shield. There staring into the shield was a face but it did not belong to me. It had a beard and hair that glowed orange red and pink. "The hell?"
'Heh… you looked better in the future brother.' hearing the demon's voice I drew the sword and looked around the bright white room just to see nothing but.. White.
"Where are you!? Stop all these stupid tricks and fight me like a man!" the voice chuckled in the creepy voice making me more angry then I already was.
'Do you not recognize this place brother?' I scowled when he completely ignored my challenge. 'this is where we were born, the castle of the cosmos the inner most place of magic itself... this my brother is The All!' my eyes widened when he said it, this was the all? A castle with no color?
"Not much for a life giving force…" he chuckled at that, but to me it almost sounded like… Chris.
'True. But the magic here has long been gone in to forms that form is now you… and I.' something about it's voice calmed me… I cant explain it, I guess it was because it was like talking to Chris.
"Chris I know your there somewhere.. please! Wake up and lets go home." just when I said that a small cloud of smoke appeared inside the other side of the throne room up on the second throne across from the one I sat in.
'Don't you see Solaris?' the cloud of smoke formed into a skeleton rapped in royal armor like mine. Only dark and smokey like a shadow. Skin began to form on the body as dark as ashes… and his eyes.. one blue and one brown both shining like dull stars. 'We are home.'
"This is not our home dam it! Chris I know your there please! Wake up!" the shadowed monster just shook it's head.
'There is no Chris and Wyatt or the sun and moon. There is only Artemis and Solaris!' the demon stood to his feat and drew a large black scythe from the darkness of his chest. He swung the scythe and the throne burst and covered itself with darkness that crept across the room meeting at the middle being held back by the light of my throne. I drew my sword and the silver light glowing from it faded and it became dull. 'your a fool, Excalibur dear not shine upon me!'
"Excalibur?" I looked the blade over and it looked nothing like the sword I once used, even dole as it was.
'I was the one who made that blade, it's holy light holds no power over me, I am pure darkness!' the demon rose from it's throne and moved faster then I could see lifting the scythe up over it's head ready to strike me down. Before it could I lifted the shield as he sent it crashing down on me pushing me back with his sheer strength. 'You are weak!'
"Says you!" I pushed back with my shield and slashed him with my blade barley scraping his armor. Fuck this guy is tough! I backed away and chose to use my most desperate attack. "This is your last chance Chris! Wake up or I'll make you!"
'He is gone you idiot! Accept it and die!' I smirked and held out my hands and concentrated my magic and felt my power rise to a boil inside me then unleashed it sending a wave of fire tossing the demon back onto his throne. Before he could get up I rushed up to him and sent Excalibur into his chest making the demon gasp in pain. I moved to his face and growled.
"Get out of my brother." the demon just laid there and smiled.
'I am your brother.' he grabbed the sword and a wave of darkness engulfed it spreading all the way to the hilt. I quickly let go of it and jumped back watching as the blade absorbed into his chest. 'I will never forgive you… I will never forgive this world!'
"What are you talking about!?" I demanded as he stood, he swung the scythe and a silver light burned onto the blade making it look like a crescent moon being held up by a mass of shadow.
'This world is full of hatred, and so are you. I will end this world and send it into the void! All will fall into darkness and then!… and then…' the demon stopped and thought but said nothing. It just ran at me swinging the scythe around like a maniac. I could only defend with my shield as he swung away. 'And then!'
"And then what!?" as I asked I felt something clouding my mind like a whisper, but not any whisper. It sounded like Daemon. {and then all will be forced to love his night} "Daemon?"
'And then… and then…' the voice in my head echoed louder and louder all the same words, forced to love his night. Just then I understood. I jumped back and dropped my shield.
"I get it… I understand now." the demon stopped its rant and roared rising it's scythe and rushed trowed me.
'YOU UNDERSTAND NOTHING!' I held out my arms and let him cut into my chest sending his scythe out my back. It hurt like hell but I used the opportunity to rap my arms around him. 'What are you doing!? Stop it! Let go!'
"NO." I didn't yell it but I didn't just say it ether, it was just a flat out no that stunned him still. "it took me a while and I'm sorry about that.. I'm not to smart, that's Chris' thing not mine… but I get it. All this time you weren't a demon at all… you were Artemis but not all of him… you said it yourself, you are only half of what you were… I'm right aunt I?"
'… then what am I if not him?' his voice sounded so sad and hurt that it made me just hug him tighter.
"Your all that was left of a broken man. All the hate.. no not even.. all the sadness and lonlyness you felt became a shadow. A shadow that hid inside the moon waiting to grow inside it's shadow... waiting for a time to get out.. to find your light. To find Chris." the shadow shook in my arms and dropped it's scythe.
'Even if your right… the world deserves to die, the stars will fade and the moon will fall for what they and you did to me. It will happen… do you accept that fate and still wish me existence?' I laughed. And I thought I was dumb.
"I know for a fact you don't accept it." it's eyes widened and it shook its head from left to right trying so hard to deny it.
'Lies! I do accept their deaths! What makes you think I will ever forgive!?' I smiled brightly and leaned torwed it's face.
"Because..." it tried to lean away but it couldn't while in my arms.
'Stop! No… don't…' I took my chance and placed my lips on it's own, it was light and only a second but it was enough to make him understand.
"Because, the Artemis I know loved his brother and the people in his kingdom. You don't want them to die just to see how they hurt you. One day they will know… but for now… at least your brother understands… both me and Solaris." the shadow's eyes grew and brightened turning completely blue and shined like stars. The shadow like armor around his body melted away and a blue and silver robe shined out of it. His hair turned blue black and within it stars danced around like the night sky. This is what he was, this is past life of my little brother, the true Artemis.
'I… I'm sorry.' tears weld up in his beautiful eyes and I couldn't help my self. I pulled him into a tight hug and to my surprise he hugged me back.
'I am sorry to my brother.' my eyes widened when I said that, it wasn't my voice but Solaris'. The castle around us started to shake and gain color, on one side glowed silver and blue while the other shined red and gold. Then everything faded away, leaving us in a dark place.
"Where are we now?" I asked my own voice retuning to me. All around us was darkness for as far as I could see. Did the world end anyway?
'The void, where all began and will end… but, I wont let it end.' he pulled away from me and walked out into the empty darkness. He turned to me one last time and smiled happily. Spreading his arms out wide. 'I'll fill the sky's with stars! And I will make a night worth loving.'
Artemis rose into the air and a pale light emanated from him expanding wide until to my amazement it exploded around him sending waves of light all around us turning into thousands upon thousands of rainbow colored specks that brought light to the darkness. I understood where we were once all that was left in the sky was a large full moon. We were in space! Artemis fell gently to the ground in-front of me and held out his hand.
'It is not over yet, it is your turn brother, space is nothing without the sun.' I smiled and concentrated holding up my hand, a small light appeared next to the moon the grew and grew until it became a huge fire ball that I knew to be the sun. with it shining brightly in the sky next to the moon I knew that we were home. The light we shared covered the ground expanding showing our porch then the manor and then everything else.
"Did… did we just create the universe?" Artemis chuckled and nodded his head.
'Yes, that is what love can do. The same love that created us can create the very stars themselves…' he looked down sadly and hugged his arms around himself.
"What's wrong?" he looked up at me but looked done not wanting to look at me.
'It's time for me to go… all the power we used has no place in existence. All will return to how it was, I will fade into the void of peoples minds and nothing would have changed.' I got what he was trying to say.
"You wont be forgotten." he looked at me full of hope. "I promise I will keep your memory alive. Every Halliwell will know your story. I'll write it in the book of shadows myself."
'You'd do that for me… thank you, Wyatt Halliwell. I shall return your brother now. May my moon forever shine down on your dreams.' with that he was gone in his place stood Chris unconscious but alive. I quickly caught him before he could hit the ground, when I did the armor I had faded and I returned to my old self. Chris sighed in my arms and opened his eyes.
"Wyatt?" I nearly cried with relief when I held him close.
"Your back!" he yawned and stretched looking so dang tired.
"Where did I went?" I lifted him off the ground and brought him inside the manor.
"I'll tell you later, it's a really neat story." when I opened the door I didn't expect it but there sat Daemon looking kind of sick. His head was lowered and he was slouching in the couch. "Daemon? You OK?"
"Daemon?" Chris opened his eyes and made me stand him up. He rushed to his side and shook him. "Daemon, what's wrong?"
"...Chris… I'm sorry, but I have to go now." Chris chuckled in relief to here his voice.
"Oh then will I see you tomorrow?" Daemon just shook his head not even looking up at Chris.
"No... I can't..." Chris frowned but smiled.
"Oh. how about the next day?" he only shook his head again.
"I can't… this... or any other day… I just wanted to say good bye.." Chris panicked and held knelled down to Daemon's knees. I could feel his heart starting to break just by watching this.
"I'm sorry I ran out on you! I was just scared please I'm sorry!" Daemon didn't answer just sat there silently. I had a bad feeling from the start but I didn't know what to do or what to say, I was for a loss. "Daemon please… I love you..."
"I love you to... yet I know… your not in love with me." Daemon lift his arm and pointed to Wyatt. "You love him…"
"I..." Chris turned to look at me and shook his head. He couldn't say it, and that was fine… yeah fine…
"It's alright… you'll be fine without me… you don't need me like you did then… besides… I can't live here anymore… I can feel myself fading into the darkness..." Daemon finally rose his head and Chris and I gasped in shock. Where Daemon's eyes were was nothing but two huge holes of blackness down them dripped a dark blood like ooze.
"Daemon! What happened to you!?" the boy tilted his head and sighed.
"It's alright… I'll be fine… better then fine… I'm becoming darkness… I'll be back soon… don't wait for me… just… be happy… be loved… it is all you ever wanted… I'll miss you… but you'll be fine… I promise you you'll be fine..." Daemon lowered his head and his body began to fade away. First his legs and then his hands until he was nothing but a neck floating in the air. Before he could fully fade Chris grabbed him and kissed him much to my surprise.
"Thank you…" as Daemon faded Chris rocked back and fourth and started to cry. I quickly ran to his side and held him in my arms he cried on my shoulder as the sun began to rise filling the room with light. What happened to Daemon and where he went I don't know, but if it wasn't for him I would never have got so close to understanding Chris. Where ever you are Daemon… thank you.
