Chapter 17
The New Evening's Light
Sadness, it exists in the hearts of even the happiest of lives. It is because deep down, we all realize it. We are born into the world alone and helpless. Then when death decides that you are no longer needed, you die alone and helpless to it. This type of sadness is very selfish, but is the core of all our fear. To die alone, not knowing what happens after. Some believe in the pearly golden gates will greet you, as well as those who died before you. Well, others tell you they will see you in the fiery depths of hell. The thing is, we don't know what happens truly after we take our last breaths. It's not as if we can pass away and tell everyone what it's like, because we are dead. Therefor we disappear from the world, leaving other's to wonder. We are helpless to it, to the nature of the world. Eternal life is reserved only to Godly beings...
These creatures tormented Dark. They danced in their human skins, talked in the voice of demons. They used him for nothing, but selfish reasons. He could do nothing, but blankly stare at the stone walls trying to forget. His head pounded from time to time, intensely. His dreams were full of pain, someone was speaking to him. Who was it? It was a faint voice, warped by striking pain.
"...Shadow... Shadow..." Dark figures swim in his mind. Golden eyes stare at him, their cold hands grabbing at his form. "...Destroy... Death..." Who was speaking to him? "...Kill... Kill... KILL..." What were those words? His heart started to race as he tried to focus on the gold eyes. His head pounded more. What kind of dream was this?
Deep red glowing eyes then opened with a sharp jagged toothy smile. The teeth gleamed like sliver with their sharp points. "...Heh hehe hahaha!"
He awoke suddenly covered in what he thought was sweat at first. As he calmed down and looked around his breathing halted. The crimson liquid, ran small rivers through the cobble stone floor out of the room and into the dark hall. The expose wires snapped and would flicker light into the madness.

Ok, kittens you asked and I updated, but I'm have writer's block right now because I'm close to the climax for the story. So, please be aware I'm not updating for awhile as I'm trying to give you the best quality that my imagination can give. Be patient for me, I refuse to produce shotty work!
