A/N: I'm still here. College life is getting rough so the updates are coming later rather than sooner. Anyway, it should be a lot better than the last chapter, which was rushed because of summer vacation...
Out of Dusk and into Darkness
The shadow moved back and forth as the stills of light fade. As the shadow expands, the person grows darker, on such a convoluted night. Such is the curse on Elendia caused by the dark day they call April Fool's Day. The last rays of light fade into the sunset as he continues stirring. The mixture is still brewing as he watches the cauldron.
The black cauldron sits in the forest as he stirs the greenish, warm mixture. Round and round, the large, wooden spoon goes as he occasionally looked to his side, to a floating book. The book, with its golden edges and leather hard cover, was filled with gibberish to the common Elendian. Yet to this person, it was the answer. He followed the directions as he released bat wings into the vat. Thin greenish bubbles appeared on the surface as the round pole popped their existence, one and all.
As he mixed back and forth, the liquid grew and change into something horrible. Yet, as many others before have said, this is April Fool's Day. As the DARKER HOURS approach, the pranks became simple awful. The lone man laughed as darkness, not light, descended into world called Elendia.
The last rays of light struck Diana's face as she looked around. The warm environment now changed into a dark, eerie place where pranks are the least of her worries. The angel sighed and thought of her best course of action, if there ever was one. He wanted to be drawn into the awkward situations as he realizes they were the best chances to peep. Yet she felt that she was lucky the last time and didn't want to take any chances. After all, this town could be destroyed by a prank, or at least scarred.
With that though in mind, she headed home, or what she could perceive as home. The trees all looked the same. The landscape of light turned dark as they hindered her way home. Rose watched her master in confusion yet didn't question her motives. Either way, they felt something off and would rather play it safe. Only the crunching grass told them that they were moving. It seemed as if they were moving nowhere, yet they persevered.
Crunch by crunch they continued, with Diana leading Rose until they heard some footsteps in the distance. Diana stopped and attempted to look ahead. She slowed her pace as she cautiously approached the source.
(Maybe I should use my fire...") Rose suggested.
"NO!" Ein said as Diana lunged forward, because of a loud snap.
Her fists flew out as she dashed forward into the darkness.
She was about to punch the other person when she recognized the shadow and stopped.
Her left hand was two inches from his face and her right was half an inch from his stomach. Claude's long staff was four inches from her face with the tip glowing with a bright red hue.
"Err... sorry about that." the mage said as he restored the staff to his side.
"I should be the one sorry for that." the angel said as she placed her hands to her side.
"I though you were a demon or someone lurking but I guess you aren't." Claude said as he created a soft light that blanketed the area.
"Thanks for the light?... Who are you anyway?" Diana said, maintaining her ignorance and innocence.
"You're new here right? I'm Claude. I've been researching here at the Magic Guild. You might be interested about my new sword spells although I should warn you about my coworkers. They... can create a lot of havoc."
"I'm Diana, Ein's younger sister. Is it always this dark here?"
"Well... truth be told I'm trying to protect the outskirts of this town. You see today is April Fool's Day and the pranks get a lot worse when the dark hours appear... so I'm trying to help everyone by shooing them back into their houses." the man said with an evil smile.
"O...k." Diana said as she took a step back away from the magician.
"Well anyway, I hope you enjoy your day." he said as the dryad bowed down and disappeared. The light faded as Diana looked around. Dusk died into darkness.
(He seems to be the strange one but at least he's... normal in some ways.) Rose said to Diana in his mind.
"Well yes... although I can't help but wonder what he's doing." Diana said as she left that area.
(Sleepy?) Rose asked, responding to Diana's yawn.
"No... I..." Diana said as she fell down. Her eyes slowly closed.
(Ein? Ein! EIIIIIIIIIIIIN.) Rose yelled out but it was too late. A simple rest spell was cast onto Diana , perhaps unintentionally.
GAME OVER. BAD END...!
Ein awoke in a bed near a certain kitchen in Lina's and Fia's house. He look around but Fia and Lina were missing. He did not see the bright, lovely rays of the sun but was greeted by its empty opposite, darkness.
"EIN!" Rose said she hugged the dumbfound hero. The hero's hand instinctively
petted the cat... or rather sprite being. The usual hand motion stopped on some bare skin that was next to some cat ears. Instantly, the hero jumped back, causing the sprite to fall forward with the hero. Ein felt the breasts of his... cat and realized that Rose is not a cat familiar but now a lovely female sprite.
"Erm Rose... when did you become a... sprite?" Ein said as 'instinctively' pushed Rose away.
"I though you like breasts." Rose said as she returned to her usual sitting position. The shocked cat sprite, watched the hero, who was confused.
The angel eyed his cat familiar, now sprite, who was resting on the bed, in a kneeling-like position, with her lower legs "pointing towards Ein" rather than being parallel. . She did indeed have cat ears, which was near the top of her head, like a usual cat. Like her familiar form, she lacked whiskers. She had green eyes that watched her master in curiosity and a fair, but somewhat flat nose and pearly white fangs, from what the angle could see. Her short jet black hair partially covered one of her eyes and part of her nose
Rose "wore" a dark, tight-fitting top that look like it could have been part of a leather suit. Her beasts were hidden in the darkness, from the front perspective. The top has two, two inch short sleeves that seemed to tightly grip her arm. The lower part of her top stopped an inch above the midriff, revealing a part of her flat stomach and her belly button. Her skin was not black but rather closer to white and furless.
Her bottom was also jet black and tight fitting but accented her curves rather well. It was more like shorts that rested an inch above the ankle with a longer, lacy black skirt in front of the shorts. She had long stockings that also covered her knee joints. This made it look like she was wearing pants but Ein was able to see the texture and thus distinguish them apart.
Her hands, resting on her lap, with long gloves, much like Cierra's, although these ones look thinner and more comfortable.
Her tail, still with its green bow, moved up and down, as the angel's eyes returned to his familiar's face, which was tomato red.
"It's embracing if you look at me like that." Rose said as she tried to cover herself with her hands and tail.
"It's just that, I've never seen you like this before. You're... beautiful." The angle said.
"That's soooo embarrassing. To be told something like that from my master is ... just so weird." Rose said out loud.
"Shh" The master said, covering his familiar's mouth.
You shouldn't say things like that. It can cause complications. Ein said in his mind.
Rose curiously looked at his master waiting for a response.
"You didn't hear that?" Ein whispered in Rose's warm ear.
She shook her head as Ein whispered his thought sentence into her fuzzy ear.
I guess she can't listen to my thought since she's not a familiar? Ein though to himself.
"Where are we?" Ein inadvertently whispered out before he could ask the other question.
Rose sighed as she pointed to a mirror.
The befuddled Ein "follow" the hand and looked at the reflection on the mirror. He saw Rose, his now cat sprite familiar and a female angel!
Ei err Diana then laughed like a lunatic. "This must be some crazy dream that Claude left me." Diana said aloud. "After all, I don't remember having a cat-sprite as my familiar... especially one this cute!"
Rose blushed at her comment and noticed at the angel is indeed changing.
"Erm E...Diana you realized that you've changed... INTO A GIRL, RIGHT!" the cat yelled out as she got off the angel and sat on the other said of the twin bed.
Rose's voice shocked the angel and the information cut Ein down... or usually would for that matter.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm slowly turning into a girl sitting next to my sprite cat. What's next, Cierra, walking in with pig tails?" the hysterical angel said, as the door opened.
And there, at the door was a grumpy Cierra with her hair in a pig tail.
Her expression changed completely when she saw Diana.
"Hello... " Cierra started to say. She cut herself off when she said that to an unfamiliar face. Her eyes scanned around that person.
"Do I... know you?" Cierra said.
"This is cat fa...(mi-ra Rasu...)" Diana started to explain as Rose covered her mouth.
"No I'm new here. I'm Diana's cat familiar, Daisy. I'm Rose's older cousin but unlike her I've retained my sprite form.
"Oh so your named after the Daisy Petal spell." Cierra exclaimed.
"Ahh no. Don't you know about the plant?" 'Daisy' said as she turned and pointed to a vase that had some daisy flowers. "It is the white one."
Why do I feel like I've already lost. Cierra said to herself as she observed Daisy's cleavage. They look similar to her own expect they were large by a small but noticeable 10%.
I wonder how I should end my dream. Ein said to himself as he desired the real world where was forced under a spell by Claude. He knew that if he did wake up, it would be somewhere in the forest with his cat familiar. It was highly unlikely that a beast or any demon for that matter would strike him since they are mostly dead. I guess I'll have to wait until Rose claws me or someone else yells at myreal body. Ein said to himself, ignore the heated debate around him.
One thing IS certain, this Cierra is the real dea,. Only she would be able to recognize Rose in this form. Even I had issues since the transformation was dramatic especially with the ...
"Why are you wearing a sexy, black, cat costume with a tail?" Cierra asked in a tense tone.
"Its because I'm a cat familiar. You shouldn't be the one talking. Look at what you're wearing. Its rather loud and even indecent to others." Ro... Daisy countered back.
"Yes but..." but if you wear something like it, you'll definitely draw Ein's attention away from me. "but... I'm a sprite and..."
"so you're implying that mixes like me shouldn't be able to wear they want? How fair is that miss mage?"
The rather barbaric mage, created a fireball aimed at the cat who instantly leap away with her feline skills.
The angel, still deep in though leaned to one side and promptly struck the center of the spell with her hand, in the shape of the blade. The air strike sliced the fireball in two, stopping the forest fire before it began. Her hand returned to her chin as she continued to contemplate her next action.
"Ein?" Cierra said, unintentionally.
"What?" Diana said caught by surprise.
"Oh sorry." Cierra said, as she bowed down. "That pose reminded me of Ein who had a rather similar stance when he was deep in though, which was quite often. Somehow he always comes up with a good decision, sometimes... for his benefit alone... " Cierra explained.
"Oh... I see." Diana said as she remembered that it was just a dream.
Ein sighed as he retuned to his train of thought which was departing to solution A.
"By the way, which do you have pig tails...?" Ro... Daisy said, drawing the unwanted attention to her.
"Oh ahh... someone tricked me and and pushed me down and did that while I was down..."Cierra explained in a sad tone.
"Why isn't your dress... dirtier?" Diasy asked in response.
"Let's not talk about that." Cierra quickly said, with a false smile.
While that was happening, Diana went upstairs, changed herself and returned downstairs in the same adventuring attire. Only now, she had a large metal broad sword, Gladius , recently created by Chappi and a bag on her back, currently containing some potions. Much like other heavy weapons, Ein was the only "one" in the whole town who could easily wield such weapons, which surprised Cierrra.
"You can use that?" Cierra asked in amazement.
"I think so." the angel said as she swung the blade a few times without any hesitation or delay. She had no issues at all in using the weapon.
Although Einherjar would be lighter, this will have to do for now. Ein said to himself as Diana sheathed the weapon into a wooden case on her back.
Ro... err Daisy followed behind, just like Rose.
"Anyway I'm going out then." Diana said as Cierra grabbed her hand.
"I'm going too then." the red mage said with a false smile with a hint of anger in her tone.
"W-Why are you going with us? Sure I've been lost before but I think I know my way now." the confused angel said.
"I need a good lie ...I think its a bad idea if a foreigner is walking out alone in the woods. After all, the last thing Elendia needs is a lost person." Cierra said.
"And you care now? Anyway, like my sister I know the whole place already. She explained the location of the forests and the many tree houses already. So we don't need a guide, like you. " Diasy said as she grabbed Diana's other hand and pulled her away.
The tug of war between the "stranger" continued because Diasy disliked Cierra who hated her back. Their rather crude prize was helping Diana, who didn't need their help at all.
The cries of Lina stopped them both.
"I-I-I never you knew you swung that way." the young sprite said, as she ran into the woods.
"WAIT!" Diana said as she followed at a quicker pace.
The two succumbed to the angel's strength, as they were instantly pulled onto the ground and dragged. The two hung on for dear life as they felt rocks, dirt and other debris striking their clothing and marring it with stains.
"Its not what you think." Diana said as she caught up to the young sprite. Diana made it in front of the child and stopped. The" luggage bags" released themselves and sighed in happiness.
"But... why are they holding you like that then?" Lina asked.
Must be someone equally as young... perhaps Molan or Gill. Ein deduced.
"Ahh well... they were fighting and... I got stuck in the middle." Diana explained while the dragged victims pulled themselves up
"I see... do all adults fight like it?" the young child asked the older adult.
"Well... sort of... it sometimes get's really messy." the angel said as he delicately chose his ... her words. "Anyway they were fighting and well... I got in the middle..."
The hooting of a nearby owl alarmed the "girls." Lina clung onto Cierra while Ro... Diasy looked cautiously around for the source. Diana relaxed and pulled Gladius out of its wooden scabbard. Like Ein, she stepped forward with it in her right hand. The left hand supported the heavy weapon, while she scanned the horizon for any enemies.
The bird, hooted once more before flying away from the group, leaving a feather as a small trinket. The hero grabbed the feather and looked it its strange coloring. The "stem" was black with dark stripes of yellow and black on either side. Diana stored the feather in her bag and Gradius back into its sheath.
That isn't the owl of ill luck is it? Ein asked himself when he saw the feather. Ehh its a dream, it doesn't matter... does it?
Everyone returned to their previous positions although much wearier than before. Lina was a half step away from Cierra who had produced her staff from nowhere. Diasy eyed the environment for any eye balls that seem out of place.
"HELP ME!" someone yelled out in the distance. Diasy, tensed up while Lina hugged Cierra again. In that instant, Diana stood still. One second later, the hero vanished without a trace.
"Where are you Diana!" Diasy yelled out in her panicked state, frantically looking around for any trace of the angel.
Diana dashed towards the source at a steadfast gait. Her bare skin was being nicked by the branches and leaves that she failed to push out of her way.
Wait a minute... I'm feeling pain? This must be a powerful spell then, Claude cast. The hero said to himself as she continued her pace. In her wake was nothing more than a few disturbed leaves. The branches returned to their original position and the bushes kept their shape.
Ten seconds later, the angel arrived at a clearing, around the Elder's house. She took once last deep breath, pulled out Gladius and ran toward the door.
"Is everything alright?" Diana yelled out as she kicked down the wooden door, with Gladius in her right hand.
"I... can't open this jar." the Elder said, as his old hands were unable to provide enough torque to rotate the lid from the container.
The angel sighed in both relief and sadness, as she walked to the kitchen and opened the jam jar. A small distinctive pop sound, echoed in the tree house, as the Elder's expression changed from agony to relief.
"Thank you so much." the old man said, as he pulled a butter knife from a nearby table. He slid it into the jar and pulled it out, seconds later, with some jelly on it. The old man turned, and spread the sweet paste onto a piece of toasted bread.
Diana turned away and headed towards the door, saddened because of the turn of events. She trudged out, away from the thanks, the Elder was giving. A few steps later...
"EIN!" someone yelled out.
Diana's instincts kicked in as she stored Gladius and bolted into the woods. He was a bit more cautious this time, as she slowly approached the situation. She crept into the bushes and peered into the Grove of Reprose.
In the center of the grass field, bathed in moonlight, was Rebecca who tried to get out of a quicksand pit. Near the edge was Diasy, who was trying to pull her out. Cierra was standing in front, protecting the "innocent" bystanders. Around fifteen feet away was Serene who scoffed at the trio.
"Foolish citizens. You will never escape my plethora of traps." Serene said as she continued her evil laugher.
"Then I have no choice" Cierra said as she pointed her staff at the arc. "Begone." the witch said as a fireball appeared from the trip of her ruby-tipped staff.
The ball flew at high speed but... was reflected.
"Think that will hit me?" the arc said, as she produced a magical mirror at her pocket and reflected the spell. Because of its speed, Cierra did not have enough time to cast another spell.
Her clothes took most of her damage as her dress burned. Initially there was a large hole near her stomach, revealing her middrif, but as with all fires it spread. Eventually it died but it turned the dress into very revealing attire, as if it wasn't already reveal enough. Here frontal curves are visible as well as parts of her sides.
She gripped her wooden staffed as she yelled out "When you play with fire YOU GET BURNED, INFERNO RUSH!" the witch yelled out as many fireballs appeared and aimed towards one target.
The arc was slowly being burned the intense flames but she kept her defensive position in the air.
"They call me a werecat for a reason." Serene said, as she jumped, with a right fist, towards Cierra.
The yells of help died when Diasy successfully pulled Rebecca out of the pit. The two silently disappeared as Diana watched.
I wonder if I should stop this fight. What do you think Rose? Ein said to himself.
Seconds pass, as the two exchanged blows but alas no response came. Then Ein realized why there was no response. Rose err Diasy lost her familiar form. She is now a sprite and must communicate verbally, as he had already learned.
That's why my head is lot quieter but... this isn't going to help me now. Ein said to himself, as the insane battle continued. His mind swayed between yes or no and sounds of fireballs and punches reverberated on the trees.
The answer did arrive but not in the usual method.
"Stop" she said, as she revealed herself from the bush.
"Who made you boss!" Serene responded to the intruder, while avoiding a fireball.
"Do you think what you are doing is right, especially on April Fool's Day? Look around us, the trees are on fire. Can't you at least be a little respectful to the environment and not attack people out of revenge!" the person said.
"I don't think she'll listen to that." Cierra said, as she starting casting disable spells.
The intruded focused and dashed towards the target.
"I have no choice... I guess this is how it will end." as the person, struck Serene's back and forced her on the ground.
Cierra summoned magical rope and successfully tied Serene's hands together.
"I guess that's that." he said.
"I never knew you would be the type to take people down." Cierra asked back.
"Well true, I err prefer to use perv... err diplomatic means but there are exceptions and this is one of them." he said with a smile." You know you could have started using that disable spell from the start, right?"
"Err well..." Cierra said, as she looked away.
"Anyway, I guess I have to punish her for this." the old man said as he dragged her back towards the pit.
At that point Ein decided and looked into the clearing. Alas, the Elder, not Ein, saved the day. So, Rebecca was reduced to an observer, who luckily, didn't step on any trigs.
The old man stopped the body in front of the pit, with Cierra curiously watching. The Elder undid his belt and pulled them off of his pants.
"What are you doing!" the fire mage said flame-colored red face.
Rebecca watched in awe, as nothing stopped the Elder from giving punishment.
"Can't you do something more ... reasonable." Cierra said, pleading for the sake of the evil-doer..
"Here we go." The Elder said as he pulled out his tool of choice.
There were pellets placed in a pocket that can only be accessed on the inside of the belt, making it very safe from physical theft. He went to the pit, opened it and shook it. White pellets starting falling into the pit, which mixed into the sand material. A few seconds pass before the Elder reversed his actions by closing the container, storing the box and belting himself.
"So what were you saying?" The confused old man said, as he now faced Cierra.
"Err, nothing... go on..." Cierra said as she hid her face, under his tall hat.
Ein laughed at Cierra's reaction as he figured that the Elder would always have the most creative tricks under his sleeve. After all, he probably lived he all his life.
The old man kicked the arc into the pit, who instantly felt the results of the pellets. Tears started to appear in her eyes.
"How could you do that!" Cierra exclaimed, as she watched the Elder kick her in.
"Well truth be told... it always sucks being the man or woman on the bottom of the totem pole." the Elder said as he stepped on the arc, who sank even further into the pit.
He stepped off and grabbed part of the tie and pulled her off.
"This will probably the least of your worries if you happen to, I don't know... burn my house down." The Elder said in a sarcastic tone. "Although I have to give praise for your fire spell for this one reason only, that it burn's peoples' clothing which made this punishment a lot deadlier. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a daughter to find." he said with an evil laughter.
And so Cierra vision of the Elder was practically broken as she now feared for her life. At the very least, she wasn't going to random light trees on fire, or so the Elder though.
Maybe I went a bit too far, but well... if it saves the town from burning. The Elder said to himself as he disappeared into the woods, as mysteriously as he came.
Ein laughed and he too left the scene, looking for Diasy.
The only ones left were Cierra, who was still in shock from the Elder's action, and the "punished" Serene who squirmed like a worm.
"Scr, Scra, ratch, Scratch ME!" she said in a low voice, hoping not to attract more attention than needed. She became much dirtier just so she could relieve that burning sensation.
And so the two turned never to mess with old men.
I wonder where Rose went. ROSE ROSE.. oh wait she can't here me. Ein said to himself as he realized that all telepathic communicates have failed, ever since Rose became a sprite.
Wait. How did Rose become a sprite...? Ein said continuing his train of thought.
I guess I'll.. have to ask Rose ... Diasy for the answer... and that's if she actually does respond with a reasonable answer. ... Although. Wait… where am I going? Ein asked himself, as he focused on the world in front of him rather than the one inside his mind.
Diana was still in the forest when she opened ear eyes. She didn't know where she is now so she closed her eyes and listened. Her ears listened for any irregular sound. The angels stayed still and focused. Soon enough she heard something.
Diana heard a pair of footsteps running within the forest. They seemed to be, as he called it, mini high heels, with block-sized heels that were one inch high. Their clacking sounds revealed their owner, which Ein guessed, was Fia.
Like a cat she went on all fours closer to the main road, and peered out. Indeed it was the green sprite that was running, giving chase to someone, who Ein quickly recognized as Diasy.
"STOP DEMON!"Fia yelled out, revealing her audible voice to Diana.
"I'm not a demon." Diasy said, running on her feet. "Get away from me!" the angry cat said.
Well... I guess this is expected. Ein said to himself. I guess I have no choice.
Rather than watch, Diana stepped into the path and walked towards the two.
"Diana!" Diasy yelled out, running up and hugging her master.
"You know this creature?" Fia asked with a confused look on her face.
"Erm well its a long story but yes. She's my familiar." Diana confidently answered, petting Diasy's head.
"I never knew there were cat... sprites." Fia asked thinking of the demons she had fought before.
"Well.. she was a familiar but thanks to a certain accident, she changed her form." Diana said, making up her story.
"Yeah there was a magical accident..." Diasy said, hiding being Diana like a young child hiding behind her mother.
"Well... then I'm sorry." the green sprite said bowing down in front of the two. "I guess I got ahead of myself, thanks to the April Fool's Fever."
"Well... let's put it this way, at least the town isn't on fire, or so Ein has told me from me. There's also no town-wide prank disaster as well." Diana said.
"That's ... rather true." Fia happily said. "Although I wonder when that will change." the green sprite said changing her tone into sadness.
"What do you mean?" a confused Diasy said, peering behind her master's back.
"Well... usually there's always a larger problem that involves a majority of the villagers, every April Fool's Day. I don't see one unfolding now." the green sprite said aloud.
At least I don't think Cierra will be starting the pranks... Ein said to himself.
BOOM. A loud explosion shook the town and debris raining down upon the town.
"I guess that's my call." Diana said, as she dashed to the source of the sound.
"I'll follow too." Diasy and Fia both said, matching the angel's pace.
The trio arrived at a newly made clearing, with over turned bushes and other plant life, with roots on the surface and small craters.
"Look who's here!" someone said, as a golem with blue eyes warmly greeted them with a scream.
A person jumped from the golem's left shoulder and landed perfectly on the ground. She swung her black cape around and revealed her true werecat form. Mursya had on a skull necklace that had red eyes, strung with crimson beads.
The rock construct, behind her was about 30 feet tall. It was made of 6 large, smooth, solid, grey stones that seemed to be fine cut and crafted. The stones themselves are curved and smooth everywhere. The largest stones are the feet. The next smaller stones are the body and the arms. The head, with its glowing blue eyes is the smallest. The golem has glowing visible near transparent blue "tendon" cylinders that connect each appendage together.
"W-Why are you doing this?" Fia asked the dark individual.
The werecat responded in an incomprehensible answer, "Trick or treat."
The golem responded by punching the ground, sending the heroines into the air to some over turned trees. The dirt flew everywhere, causing it to rain dirt for a few moments.
"Ha ha ha. It's Halloween and I need some candy." The crazy Mursya said.
Ein realized when she struck the wall that this was indeed not a dream. This was infact, reality or some version that he doesn't remember.
I wonder if that's Soala or Cierra. Ein asked himself, as she fell to the ground.
"Why are you doing this Mursya?" Fia yelled out, forcing herself onto to her feet.
"Oh, wouldn't you like to know. I'm Princess Mursya to you folks except Ein my love." Mursya said, giving a false smile.
I wonder if these are the after-effects of the spell. Perhaps its growing unstable or drawing insanity out on a full moon. Ein said to himself as he looked up at the princess.
Behind her was the darkness and emptiness of the skies above. The full moon nudged itself on the horizon. The night was still young as the lunatic princess began her attack. The golem creature roared once more, making its presence known to all kinfolk of Elendia.
The dangerous dark side of Elendia, started to awaken, as Ein wondered what "pranks" would happen next. Seconds tick by one by one. The brewery of humor continues, now tainted by the moon shine. It raises every still, eagerly watching the village below.
Will the villagers survive the full moon, or will it implode on itself, due to a thread of insanity? Will it end in a sea of blood or turn into a land of demons? The simple act of living has turned into hell in this night, as the stench of pranks turn into chaos. Order is destroyed and people have nothing left but to cling onto their strengths. At least this hell isn't frozen over, yet.
A/N: I'm alive barely if anything else thanks to school, life, projects, and programming. I don't know when the next update is but I'm still here.
