Listen to my story…

Chapter 2 – Deal and Duel with Lord Loss (Part 1)

Lord Loss sows all the sorrow of the world

Lord Loss seeds the grief-starched trees

In the center of the web, lowly Lord Loss bows his head

Mangled hands, naked eyes

Fanged snakes his soul line

Curled inside like textured skin

Bloody, curled sheets for skin

In the center of the web, vile Lord Loss torments the dead

Over strands of red, Lord Loss crawls

Dispensing pain, despising all

Shuns friends, nurtures foes

Ravages hope, breeds woe

Drinks moons, devours suns

Twirls his thumbs till the reaper comes

In the center of the web, lush Lord Loss is all that's left

In the demonata universe (HELL) two lone figures hung from thick spider webbings. The were inside an enormous castle all made entirely from webs. It was blisteringly hot and smoke hovered around the ground like a miasma.

'Welcome to my humble abode' said a saddened voice from somewhere in the cavernous castle of webs.

The two men looked towards the sound of the voice. Hovering towards them was a demon lord. It was Lord Loss himself.

He was very tall; at least 8ft and leanly built. He had cracked and withered red skin, which looked like it had been melted. He had six arms; three on each side. Each arm ended with sharp boney hands, with strips of red flesh hanging from them.

Lord Loss had no legs, longs strips of flesh where the legs should be. Of course he couldn't walk but he hovered instead.

He was dressed in full length, blood red robes, opened out at the chest revealing the gaping hole where his heart should be. Inside were dozens of thrashing, hissing snakes.

His face was almost human like, except that his skin was withered and red and cracks and gashes seemed to appear on his skin and then vanish leaving behind a small trickle of blood. His eyes were large and cat like, a sharp pupil and yellowish colored eyes.

'I see that you two decided to live after all.' Said Lord Loss watching them with a sorrowful expression

'A pity, live is nothing but torment' he added, giving them a toothy smile, revealing numerous black jagged teeth.

'What do you want with us Lord Loss?' yelled the younger of the two men, straining against the ropes of thick web binding him.

'Now Mark is that anyway to talk to an old friend?' asked Lord Loss, with a faint smirk upon his face.

'You brought us back for the dead, you don't do anything unless you get something in return' yelled Mark back at the demon lord.

'Simple I want your pain and misery to fuel my powers' stated lord Loss 'How about we make a bet? Your friend Yami duels against me while you Mark fight against two of my familiars.'

'This sounds familiar; didn't you make a similar bet with the Grady family?' asked Mark

'Yes I did' replied looking faintly amused that Mark knew about his deal with the Gradys.

'Explain the rules!' said Yami, speaking for the first time.

'Only if you are to agree'

'We do…' replied Yami, Mark's face paled slightly but he said nothing.

At this Lord Loss laughed, he clicked his fingers and two demons appeared beside him.

The demons were a peculiar pair. The first of the demons was quite large, perhaps a meter in height. It had the body of a large dog with thick spiky grey fur. It had the head of a crocodile and at the end of each of his limbs, instead of claws was human hands, female by the looks of them.

The second had the body of a toddler, except that its head was twice the size of a normal one. It had mottled green skin and upon each of the palms of its arms were gaping mouths lined with small sharp teeth. It had no eyes, but its sockets were filled with fire. Upon its head, were numerous insects; such as lice's, leeches and cockroaches. All feeding upon his flesh, in some places you could even see its brain.

'These are my two current favorite familiars, Vein and his brother Artery.' Said Lord Loss, gesturing towards the two demons.

'Now to the conditions, Mark will fight my two familiars outside of the dueling field. Meanwhile Yami will face against me in a shadow duel. As long as Mark is alive, my two familiars will not be able to harm you. But if he is defeated before the duel ends they can come after you, and presumably kill you.' Smiled Lord Loss

'If Mark is able to survive and you defeat me, both of you can return to the human world, no strings attached. But if I win, or my demons kill you than your souls will be mine forever!' he added

'We accept your terms' said Mark, knowing that if they refused that they'd be killed on the spot.

'Then let the duel begin.'
