Author's Note: Come on! Keep it together! Just a few more chapters! Anyway, I finished chapter 3 sooner then I thought I would (Mainly because it's short..) so I hope it's good for a rush job. I'm very highly thinking of turning this into a full out novel but let's wait until it's finished, ok?

------------------------ Chapter 3 - Darkness ------------------------
"Hello?" An echo was the boy's only response, "Mia? Garet? Felix?"
He investigated his surroundings only to find emptiness. As far as he could tell he was surrounded by an inky black voice. Off in the distance there was a single hole of light that seemed to poke through the darkness with the aid of the summer sun. Hopeful for salvation, he dashed towards it only to feel as though he was getting farther and farther from his destination.
"What kind of mind trick is this?" He questioned no one in particular.
To his surprise he got an answer in the form of an eerie voice, "Confused, Isaac?"
"Who are you? Show yourself!" Isaac demanded but the voice remained shrouded.
"I am you and you are I. We are one in the same." The voice explained.
"You speak in riddles!"
Isaac's ocean blue eyes darted all across the void searching for the owner of the voice. Behind him stood a frightful floating mist with two sinister, blood red eyes and a Cheshire Cat grin of a similar shade. Drawing his sword, he prepared for the worst.
To Isaac's frightful surprise the mist formed into a complete replica of himself, only its eyes were the same fiery red color, "Do you see that light? It is the entrance to a world you no longer belong in!"
"To hell if you know!" Isaac growled as he charged at his opponent. Their identical blades locked together in heated combat as both fighters bore a look of determination. When their blades finally separated they were sent a few feet apart, catching their breath as they prepared to strike.
The dark Isaac was the first to make a move, having Isaac barely parry each of his feral blows. In an attempt to strike back at his aggressor, Isaac extended his blade and leaped forward in an attempt to cut the fiend in two. The only result of which was dark Isaac dodging the attack and striking at Isaac's back, sending him smacking into the hard floor of the void.
Before Isaac could do anything other then tip himself over onto his back, his enemy's blade was at his throat, "I believe this is check.."
"Mate!!" Isaac rolled out from under the blade at the speed of Sheba's lightning bolts as he cut his dark form in half. It let out a cry of anguish as it faded into mist once again only to reform to the horror of young Isaac.
"I am you and you are I. We are one in the same." The creature repeated, "I bear your hatred, your sorrow.. your every desire. You cannot hope to succeed when you and I both know there's no one for you to return to. Why even your own foolish mother is probably dead by now thanks to the very Golden Sun you helped to create!!"
"You.. You're wrong!!" Isaac leaped into the air as his sword began to shine once again. The flaming destruction of Megiddo flew towards his dark form but fear overwhelmed him when he saw him do exactly the same.
A similar ball crashed into Isaac, sending him flying back onto his back with a crack and a cry of turmoil. Meanwhile, dark Isaac stood triumphantly without a single scratch as he approached his prey, "Maybe.. Maybe he's.. Right.."

Author's Note: Poor Isaac! I'm so evil! What will happen to our hero and more importantly our heroine if dark Isaac is left to ravage poor, defenseless Isaac? Stay tuned!
