The Dark Lord Awakens

(Unknown Location)

There, in a dark realm, stood a mighty castle with its dominating castle was as dark as night, if not darker, and there was an ominous aura surrounding the castle. Instead of guards watching over the castle, there were hideous demons guarding it. Unnatural creatures, some were demons made out of black spikes, others looked like an unwrapped mummies. Some had wings others didn't. But they were all bloodsuckers with only one instinct-kill.

The sky was black, with mist and fog covering the castle. There were dark gray clouds, blocking the sky. Even the blood-red moon was partly covered, but, you could still see the glowing red light emanating from the moon through the clouds. The land surrounding the castle reeked, with the scent of death. In the dark forest, you could hear the sounds of people wailing and crying. The flowers there were always red because they have soaked up the blood that had soiled the forests ground. The mountains were dark purple, and the snow was dark gray, (an unnatural color.) The large River that flowed through the valley, was blood red, and anything that dared drink it would be burned by the water, (if it even was water?) Grass, crops, and any new trees refused to grow in this sickening place. Bones of many people and creatures were scattered all over the valley. It was a hellish place, this, valley of death and despair. No sunlight, ever touch this-hell on earth.

A slim, yet muscular man with spiky silver hair and frightening dark blue eyes stared at the dark castle. The young warrior let out a sigh. He sensed something more ominous about the castle today. Knowing that sent shivers up his spine.

"Sephtis..." a cold voice called from behind the man. He turned around to see that the owner of the voice was another young man with a slim build, and intense golden eyes and waist length white with an intimidating aura that predominant the aura of their current location.

"Akuma" Sephtis simply replied to the other man, "What are you doing here?"

Akuma still had that calm expression as he walked closer towards Sephtis. Sephits eyes traced Akuma's movements towards him.

"You can sense something amiss too, can't you?" He asked causing Sephtis to let out a sigh of annoyance.

"Yes, there something more ominous about today. Even the crows are silent." Sephtis murmured as he began to walk away from the castle with Akuma close behind.

"Do you think? Do you think, that today's the day? The day that we have waited for so many years!" Akuma questioned, but, there was a slight ring of excitement in his tone.

"I don't know? I'm hoping." Sephtis replied.

Then, loud sounds of thunder echoed across the valley, followed by the loud sound of lighting crackling. The sky went completely dark in a manner of moments.

Sephtis and Akuma watched in amazed at the valley which they have called home, quickly changing. The clouds became darker than usual, and the thunder and lighter were even louder this time! The fierce winds turned into hurricanes and tornadoes in a manner of seconds! The earth started to tear open, with fire and lava erupting from the openings! Burning the forests that's surrounded the castle.

Soon there was a purple aura emanating from the castle. And with that, the earth shook even more violently! Sephtis and Akuma rushed into the castle. They ran towards a chamber, hidden deep in the castle. They were soon joined by another young man with waist long blonde hair with black highlights, with two strands of hair in the front, and he had six black angel wings.

"It's happening! IT'S HAPPENING! THE DAY WE HAVE AWAITED FOR SO MANY YEARS! IT'S FINALLY HERE!" The young blonde cheered with an evil grin on his face. The young man was laughing with insanity in his tone.

"Calm down Cornelius you fool!" Akuma scolded. "We know it's happening, so shut up!"

The three demonic warriors halted in front of a black door that lead to the secrecy chamber. Before they opened the doors, they all took a deep breath to calm themselves before entering. Neither one of them would openly admit to anyone or themselves or even display it, but they were incredibly overpowered by the spiritual pressure. 'He' was definitely waking up if 'he' was giving off that much immense power.

Sephtis pushed open the doors which opened with an eerie creek before he walked inside, with Akuma and Cornelius following close behind him. When they entered the hidden chamber, they saw a purple, black like ominous aura floating above a crystallized coffin with a man inside.

There was also to other men there, on was stroking the crystal coffin with one hand, the other had his arms crossed and was looking at the coffin. The man stroking the coffin had golden hair standing up like a blazing flame. He is described as handsome with an elegant face, and his eyes, crimson like blood, and he gave off a mysterious radiance that made people quiver. The other had waist length black and red hair with a slightly demonic appearance featuring blue spots and markings on the right side of his face and a long horn growing from his forehead along with his hair becoming red and shaggy. His eyes gained a yellow sclera and pupils became red. He wore a dark jacket, white hakama and crimson armor with spikes jutting out and a large blue jewel in the middle of his chest plate.

"Leonus. Scourge."

The two men looked up at the three other men that just came in.

"Ah, I see you've arrived. Come. It is finally time." Leonus said.

The three other men joined Leonus and Scourge, then they surrounded the crystal coffin with the man inside, and, with that dark aura above them. When they all surrounded the coffin, the aura above them suddenly went wild. It was like it had a mind of its own. The more it went wild, the more the earth shook. The castle felt like it was going to fall down on top of them.

Through all the destruction that was happening, the four men stayed by the crystal coffin. Then suddenly, the crystal coffin glowed white, and the ominous aura was being drained by the crystal coffin. The four men fell on the ground, as they watch the ominous aura being drained by the coffin.

"HAHAHA! IT'S HAPPENING! IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING!" Cornelius laughter rang with insanity. "OUR MASTER! HE IS FINALLY WAKING UP!"

When all the ominous aura was drained, a white light engulfed the whole room, and the crystal coffin exploded. When the dust finally settled, the five young men stood in awe, then immediately kneeled.

In place of the crystal stood a tall naked man with a muscular body, who had spiky black hair up to his waist, and two strands of hair in the front. He raised his hand up, then suddenly darkness covered the man. When the man snapped his fingers, the darkness vanished, he was in full armored form, resembling a dark angel, he had six silver-black armor wings with a black cape. Then he slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were of the purest green, but yet they were filled with hatred and rage. An aura of purple energy surrounded his body.

"My Lord," All five Dark Generals said with respect as they looked up slowly at the man.

"Rise my Dark Generals" The man ordered and the dark generals did not hesitate to comply with his command.

"My Lord, we are pleased to have you with us once again. It's been so long." Cornelius said with sheer delight.

The man looked at Cornelius, and then at the other generals.

"My Generals! I am the Dark Lord Chaos! Your Master has returned!" Chaos said with a booming voice, as his Dark Generals cheered in delight.

Chaos walked out of the hidden chamber with his four Generals close behind. He looked out a window to see the outside.

The valley looked untouched?! It was like, nothing happened?! There were no openings from the earthquakes! No, trees burned from the lava! No, trees torn from the violent wind storms! No nothing! It looked like exactly the same. As if all of that was a dream.

The five Dark Generals hosted a party in honor of their Master's awakening. The party went on for hours. When it was finally over, the Dark Generals retired to their rooms. Chaos was escorted to his room by a hideous demon. When they got there, he told the demon to leave. The demon bowed and ran off. Chaos slowly opened the door and enter his room, then he closed the door behind him. Chaos looked all around his room, he had forgotten what it looked like.

Then he turned his gaze to a large portrait hanging on the wall. He slowly walked to the portrait. It was a portrait of a beautiful woman with her hands in her lap, sitting down on a nice wooden chair. She had flowing brown hair that came up to her ankles that were divided into two stands and put in front of her. The woman had gorgeous emerald green eyes, she was wearing an emerald green loose long-sleeved dress, dark green underdresses, green sash with gold chains.

As Chaos stared at the portrait of this woman, an evil smirk appear on his face, and his eyes burned with lust and desire for her.

"Soon, I shall have you once again. Then I shall make you mine, all mine once more."

"My precious, Emeraldus."

(Meanwhile at the University of Maryland)

"Brrrrrrr"

"Hey! What's wrong Rebecca?" A attractive slim light brown skin girl, with shoulder length brown hair and deep brown eyes asked.

"Oh, it's-it's nothing Juliana." A attractive slim fair skin girl with waist length brown hair and bright blue eyes replied. "It's just that, I felt a chill up my spine, that's all."

"Really? How? We're in the middle of Spring?" Juliana said, caring her Biology book. With an eyebrow raised.

"Don't know." Rebecca shrugged. "But, it felt, like someone-like someone who creeps you out, has creepy plans for you, it's kind of scary."

"Oooooh creeeeeepy." Juliana's eyes popped opened. "Well, anyway we'll worry about that later. Right now we better hurry up or we'll miss Biology class, AND that Biology test."

"Oh! Yeah your right, we better hurry!" Rebecca said, and she ran off to Biology with Juliana close behind.
