The Awakening of Darkness
Kat's POV
I stared at my reflection in the pond and took my stripped bangs between my slender fingers in distain, "I no longer wish to bare these marks . . . after what happened and Onii-chan's disapproval I no longer consider myself a Shinigami." I closed my eyes and my fingertips, holding my hair, glowed; then I dropped my hand and opened my eyes to stare with some content: the very three white stripes I was born with were gone. These very lines always made Onii-chan rant because they weren't symmetrical. I then put my hair into pigtails; now came another thing to change, staring into the pond I watched as my eyes turned from gold to blue. I sighed. There . . . I am no longer Kat the Kid, just Kat, and just Kat is how I shall stay. I closed my eyes and felt my Shinigami powers being sealed away, forever to remain in a place inside me where they would be lost for eternity.
For the past few years after leaving Gallows Manor, I've hopped from job to job. At one point I performed songs on the side of the streets of Death City. I really only did it to spread the beauty of music through the city but people always thought I only did it for money. People are so stupid. The next job I took on was a dancing job. I really enjoyed it, but then people were getting suspicious about Lord Death's daughter working a job when she was so rich. I sighed then looked at the clock in the city. Oh shoot! I'm going to be late! I stood up, brushed off my navy blue skirt, and made my way to the city. The current job I had was at the Death City Public Library, it would suit my new character.
I watched the people out of the corner of my eye as I walked through the crowded streets; a few stared at me as I passed them. I simply stared ahead, not paying attention to my surroundings. Suddenly, a hand emerged from the shadows of an alley next to me, it wrapped around my mouth and I muffled out a shriek before being hauled into the darkness. I landed on my backside hard and groaned a little then looked up to see a dark figure sitting on a box taller than me, one of its legs hung over the edge and the other was bent so its elbow rested on its knee. The figure was basically a shadow, black all over, it had thick claws for nails and its hair appeared to be thick quills. What the hell is this thing?! The shadowed pulled its lips back and opened its mouth in a smile that literally stretched from ear to ear, razor sharp teeth were revealed, saliva dripping from its fangs. I began to shiver in fear. Then the creature stood and leapt towards me, it disappeared as it entered my heart, my eyes were as wide as they could go as this happened, then darkness overcame my eyes and I allowed it to overcome me.
Normal POV
In a realm of churning darkness, a sole cage exits. In that cage was the very figure Kat had seen, the dark creature sitting the same way it had on the box. In front of the cage Kat appeared, the way she looked before changing her appearance. She snapped out of her daze and looked around then her gaze fell onto the shadow which smiled the way it had before. Kat began to shake then the figure disappeared as did Kat, when they reappeared, Kat was locked inside the cage and the figure was freed and smiling. The black haired girl started to frantically shake the bars in utter distress; the figure only smiled more then walked away into the churning darkness of the mysterious realm, leaving behind the hysteric Shinigami girl screaming, crying, and trying to free herself.
In the alley, the shadowed figure walks out of the other side and into the white light from the sun, slung over her shoulder was a knocked out, black haired girl. The figure stared at the alley before walking.
"Hey." A male coolly said as he took a step forward causing the creature to stop and shoot him a sideways stare. "What are you doing to that girl?"
The figure said nothing but bowed its head slightly.
"You know it's quite rude to take a girl from the streets." Said another male voice, the figure then took off running, leapt into the air and disappeared in shadowy streaks.
Outside the City, in a forest, the figure emerged from midair and looked behind itself before walking again. Suddenly, it stops at the edge of a steep hill; at the end is a ledge. With a wide smile the shadow takes Kat and throws her, sending the black-haired girl tumbling down and just stopping at the very end of the ledge. Then the dark figure disappears in shadowy streaks into the air.
Footsteps are heard, nearing the site where the unconscious girl lay, along with their footsteps are the voices from before,
"You sure you saw that thing appear here?"
"Yeah, positive then it threw that girl it was carrying over the hill!"
"Oh Shinigami, there's like a twenty foot drop at the end of that!" The two boys stopped at the top of the hill and look down,
"There she is!" One skidded down and checked Kat's pulse,
"Well, she's alive but still out cold." The boy picked her up in his arms and met up with his companion,
"At least she's alive."
"Yeah, we better get her some help and fast."

Kat's POV
Nightmares flashed through my mind; people turning into scary weapons and blood being shed, weapons everywhere. Scythes, guns, snipers, chainsaws, swords, chain scythes, ninja stars. I began to tremble and ran like a bat out of hell, looking nowhere but ahead to no destination in particular, behind me were the moaning of those being tortured as they transformed. I squeezed my eyes shut and screamed as I pressed my hands over my ears to block out the terrorizing sounds. Suddenly, I stopped and the world seemed to spin around me, the moaning becoming louder and louder. I screamed and shot upright, trembling, eyes wide, and sweat saturating my entire body. I was breathing heavy and my heart was pounding so hard and quickly that it hurt. The slide door in the room opened and a white haired boy emerged. The boy rushed over to me as I panicked, "Hey, hey are you ok? Talk to me." All I did was scream and cry; then I launched myself against his chest, gripping his white t-shirt for dear life as I sobbed.
"Tomi, what's wrong with her!" Another boy appeared in the doorway, I continued to cry and the boy comforting me, Tomi I believe, looked at the other,
"I don't know, Toshio! She just started freaking out!" The newcomer, Toshio I assume, walked over to me and cupped my face in his hands, making me face him,
"Hey, what's wrong?" His voice was so soothing and I calmed down a little, my crying turned to whimpers, "Hey, look at me alright?" He said gently and I slowly opened my eyes and looked up to meet his light lime green ones, he smiled. "There we go, now why were you so scared?" I sniffled. He asked me a question and expects an answer . . . I haven't spoken out loud in so long, so long that people have been given the impression that I'm mute . . . after that incident eight years ago I decided never to speak again, not even to myself. . . I had actually forgotten what my own voice sounded like . . . How pathetic. "What's the matter?" Toshio asked, "Can't you speak?" I swallowed. Here goes.
"I . . . saw scary weapons . . . people transforming into them." I said so quietly that he and Tomi had to strain their ears to hear me. Toshio looked at Tomi then he looked back at me,
"Why are you so scared of weapons?" He asked gently,
"I've always been scared of them . . . the fact that they're not . . . human." I whispered and the two boys looked at me in utter shock.
"Really?" Tomi asked and I nodded, my gaze drifted to a clock on the wall and I shot to my feet,
"Oh, no! I'm late for work!" I turned to Tomi and Toshio and bowed,
"Th-thank you very much." Then I ran out of the house and when I was outside I took a good look at it. It was in the forest outside of the city and all by itself; it was a small, white and, one-story high. What a cute little home. I continued my way to the city. Wow . . . the first time in eight years that I've spoken out loud . . . and it was all thanks to those boys.
Normal POV
Inside the dark realm, Kat wallowed in the cage, hugging her knees against her chest and burying her face in her lap, outside, the figure watched her with a sickening smile revealing a victory. "Who are you . . ." Kat asked with an extremely shaky voice, the shadow snickered,
"Call me . . . Darkness."
