Rein's POV

I sat there in silence. Quest was still sitting next to me but still never spoke a word. He still had his hand placed on mine trying to comfort me. The flashback of my parents continued to replay in my mind. I couldn't forget it. Suddenly the feeling of Quest next to me disappeared. It felt really cold. It felt really lonely.

'You shouldn't talk to her.'

'It was her fault.'

'There is something wrong with her.'

'She doesn't belong here.'

'Everything was her fault.'

The sound of the words echoed through my mind. The whispers continued. The images flashed before my eyes.

"No..." I said.

'She's not the same.'

"Stop..."

'She's just a monster.'

"Just stop! I don't want to hear anymore!" I said as I covered my ears. I wanted it to stop so badly. "JUST STOP!" I shouted. When I opened my eyes again I was back in the cage. The chains around my wrist got darker and the light in the distance got dimmer.

"They know what your fears are. They will use it against you." Quest said. He was staring at the dim light in the distance. His expression was plain. "They will use it to drag you deeper into the darkness." he said. I stared at him for awhile.

Then I looked down, "Quest, what happened in your past?"

"I can't... remember..." he said. His expression suddenly turned sad. I suddenly put my hand on his hand.

"I know you are lying." I said quietly. "If you didn't remember then you wouldn't be trapped in the darkness. You wouldn't be suffering like you are now..." I said as I gripped his hand. He was surprised at my action.

He hesitated before starting, "I'm not even sure if I can remember it exactly. It seemed so long ago. I was at least 5 you could say. Many of the kids at school resented me since my family was considered the descendants of the Dark Raven. As I grew older I was taught to control the darkness." There was another pause. "Each descendant was used as a vessel by the Dark Raven. But you had to accept him into your body. I was the first in the family to not accept the Dark Raven. My father scolded me and abused me. One day I just ran away. I hated the abuse and resentment. I was hated no matter where I went. But on the day I ran away I met someone. " he said as he looked up at the black nothingness.

The place where his memory took place appeared. We were standing in the forest. Quest was sitting against a tree sighing.

"I wish they would just leave me alone. There is no way I will ever accept the Dark Raven." he sighed.

"You seem upset." someone replied to him. "Is it your family?"

"Huh? Who's there?!" Quest said as he looked side to side. Suddenly the boy jumped down from the tree and landed on top of him. "OW!" Quest yelled.

"Oops, my landing was a bit off." he said as he got off. The boy had a sort of bronze colored hair with yellow eyes. He had a small scar under his eye.

"A BIT OFF! YOU JUST FELL ON MY HEAD! WHO ARE YOU ANYWAYS?!" he shouted with an annoyed look. The shadows started to come up from the ground and strangle the boy.

"Agh! C-Can you l-let me go? I'm...!" he said as his face started turning blue and his tongue sticking out.

"Whatever peasant." Quest replied as the shadows let him go. He fell to the ground gasping for air.

"You sure were stuck up back then." I said as I turned to Quest. He mumbled, "Shut up and watch." with a sort of depressed look.

After a couple seconds of breathing he finally said, "My name is Second." He smiled pleasingly. Quest stared at him with a strange look.

"Your not going to run away? After what just happened to you?" he asked.

"No. I really wanted to be friends with you." he replied. Quest seemed to blush a bit.

"But if you stick around with me people will start saying your evil too."

"I don't care what they say. This is my life and I can do what I want with it." he replied. His pleasant smile still on his face.

"Fine. Do what you want." Quest replied while heading down the small hill.

Second jumped on him and said, "I'm so happy we're friends!" Suddenly Second started crying and putting his hand on his face.

"Don't just hug me so suddenly!" Quest said with his fist up. I figured out that Quest punched him in the face.

"Don't just hit me without warning!" he said as he felt his cheek. The images started to change and as they did I turned to Quest. His expression was somewhat sad.

"Quest you seemed much crueller back then than you are now." I said. He shrugged. The images changed to a picnic. Second and Quest were there along with a little girl.

"Lirin, are you feeling better now?" Quest asked the little girl. She looked very similar to Second except with longer hair that was curled at the bottom and a more rounded face.

"I am! The flower you told us about really was magical!" the little girl replied. So her name is Lirin... I thought.

"Lirin why don't you go make a crown for Quest. I'm sure he would like that as a thank you gift." Second said as he lightly shoved her towards the patches of flowers. She smiled and nodded. "Anyways, thanks for telling us about the flower at the edge of the cliff. It really saved my little sister. Her illness is getting worse each day but the flower helped ease the pain. I'm still trying to make a cure for her illness considering no one knows a cure for it. I'm really greatful to you..." Second said.

"It's no problem. I'm glad that I could help her." Quest replied. "I'm just glad that she became fond of the shadows. I thought she would have freaked out when she first saw it."

"She's not like that either." Second said. Second continued with tears streaming down his face.

"I'm just glad that she's alright." Quest said with a smile. Suddenly the surroundings changed. I turned to Quest again. His purple eyes weren't visible under his black hair.

When I looked back ahead, we were standing outside near the place where the picnic was.

"Her condition suddenly worsened! I don't know what went wrong!" Second said as he fell to the ground. Quest stared at him sadly. "Quest! Please tell me you can do something to help her! Please tell me she has a chance!" he yelled. Quest looked at him with a troubled expression. Then he smiled and nodded.

After that the surroundings changed. Second was running towards the picnic place. "Quest! Quest, you did it! Lirin got better! She has gotten better from her illness!" But there was a huge commotion in the picnic place. Caution signs were place around some sort of black mass. People gathered around. "Quest?!" Second yelled as he pushed through the crowd.

"That boy is no longer human." Someone said. As I got a better look I saw Quest standing in front of the black mass. His expression was blank. Behind him was the shadows of the Dark Raven.

I guess there will be three parts to this... Anyways plz review!
