Quest for vengeance

A story of my past, the adventure where I and my fellow authors face against the ancient evil that was sealed away so long ago. The demons of hell were released and now we must fight for our survival and hope to escape hell.

Listen to my story…

Chapter 1 – Weep and regroup

The group containing of Nexus, Yugi, Serene, DJ, SMG, Tirnam"Bas, Naruto and Ryo headed down the mountainous paths, hoping that their friends would somehow survive the murderous demons.

Yugi and Nexus seemed abnormally quiet as they ran; their eyes downcast and their expression sorrowful. The two Duelists knew in their heart of hearts that their two mysterious spirit partners would not survive the demons.

Suddenly they heard a thunderous explosion and the cave along with mountains, hills and forests were encased in a blinding light and numerous shock waves headed towards them. Destroying whatever they came into contact with.

'Are they nuts!' yelled the immortal 11 year old known as

DJ Rodriguez as the shock waves headed towards them.

'Light Barrier!' thundered DJ and his body was surrounded briefly in a blinding light. It soon dimmed and a dome of energy surrounded the entire group. Shielding them from the after effects of Yami's final attack, the shock waves battered against the shield as most of the surrounding were turned to rubble. The shield held firm, though beads of sweat began to trickle down his face and his expression showed the strain of maintaining the dome of energy that protected the gang from the devastating after effects of the attack.

The shockwaves was then followed by small balls of shadow energy that cracked the dome but did not penetrate the shield. More and more of them struck against the shield that DJ had erected. He let out an uneasy gasp and his body swayed, but he remained standing.

Eventually the aftershocks and blasts stopped and the surroundings were surrounded in clouds of dust. The barrier vanished away and DJ fell heavily onto one knee.

'Mark…Yami…' mumbled Naruto looking towards the attacks origins, feeling a chill in his heart. There was now way the two of them survived that blast. They were gone.

'DJ are you OK?' exclaimed SMG rushing to her boyfriend's side and helping him to his feet. She hadn't known Yami and Mark too well and wasn't affected by their death as much as the others were and was far more worried about her boyfriend.

'I'm…fine…' gasped DJ walking towards Yugi, Nexus and Serene who were devastated by the loss. They had been very close to Yami and the brooding duelist Mark, they'd known the pair for nearly four years and had become very close to them. The knowledge of their death and the absence of their spirit energy that they'd always been able to sense was now gone. A vacant emptiness.

'Sorry guys but we have to go…' said Ryo, helping Yugi and Serene to their feet. Nexus looked towards them briefly and to rose to his feet. He wiped his eyes and slipped on his dark shades to hide his reddened eyes.

'OK Ryo, let's go…We need to get back to head quarters, they'll need to know what Lord Loss is planning.' Said Nexus, his voice sad, but steady.

'Stay strong, Nexus' said DJ laying his hand briefly upon Nexus's shoulder.

The group swallowing the grief and fear started out again, this time towards the west, where 50 leagues away in a misty valley was the REBEL HQ; the last true resistance against the demons and Lord Loss.
