Advertisement
The black dragon is back with the eight fairies once again and they seem to be outside of the shadow’s house. The shadow walks past them and enters his house. His kids are now around outage and had a worry look on their faces. The shadow’s parents holding them tightly in their arms. Their mother was lying on the bed pale and sickly. The wife waves the shadow over, he takes her hand. She uses her other hand to touch the shadow’s face rubbing it. She starts offering up blood and the shadow sat there while the blood hit his face. He gets a drink and tries to give it to her but she doesn’t drink it. She cannot drink, she is too weak. She tries to give the shadow back his drink but it fell out of her hand. Shadow wife has passed away and the shadow starts to cry. The eight fairies bust into the room and take the children and the shadows’ parents away. The shadow hits the ground and causes a huge crack in the ground.
The room starts to freeze over and darkness creeps in. The world then turn bright and we can see a huge ball of light shooting off in the distances. The ball of light was trap by water, earth, and ice. It was crush by the trap. The black dragon roars and shoots a fireball at the shadow. The shadow easily dodges it and traps the dragon in ice. The dragon swipes his tail and broke free of the trap and sends his own ice trap also with water as well. The shadow holds out his hand and you could see a bright white light. The water around him start to form steam and cause the ice around that to melt. The dragon roars again and sends fire tornados and also the sky started to turn dark and lighting starts shooting down. The wind pick up as well because you can see the leaves flying all over the place. The shadow looks at the dragon with rage on his face. He starts to glow when all of the attacks hit him. The tornadoes, the lightning, and a blade of wind that cut through the ground the screen went bright. The aftermath was the shadow lying in a crater broken. That is when the 8 fairies came back with the shadow’s family. His son saw him lying in the crater and ran toward him crying. The shadow face was full of rage but then he look at his children. He gives them a hug as they were crying. He pick them both of and walk back to the village. All of the villagers got out of his way and the shadow arrived at his house. He put his kids down and looks at his dead wife. He nods his head and take her into his arms. He beckons his kids to follow him and he walks outside of the village. He stomps his foot and created a hole in which he gently laid down his wife into the ground and then with the wave of his hand cover the hole up again. He takes his kids by the hand and walks back into his house. “I’m sorry about you mate, yes death is a hard thing to take. None one can bring back the dead even with all of your power and mine as well. The dead a forever dead and there is nothing you or me can do about it. Yet I cannot die I will be here. Your sons cannot live live forever no one but us. Come to me I will be your friend forever.”

The shadow looks up at the sky and nodded his head. So even the shadow can control life and death. “Oh, yeah I can control life and death. I wasn’t able to before but now I can. But I only bring back people here so they can be my toys. Death is the only thing that is abuse and I refuse to play with that idea. Well, that and also I can careless if I brought back anyone to be anything besides my toy. I didn’t bring back my wife and child because I didn’t want to explain to them what type of monster I am and rather them die thinking I am a good person. Now another time skip.”
The shadow is now in his 50s looking at his two sons who were standing next to two women from the looks of it they were being married to the two women. The shadow looks very happy he was standing behind his two sons with his hands on their shoulders. The next scene we see the two sons had many kids while the shadow looks on. We have another time skip this time the two children are grandparents and have died while the shadow does look older but is still alive. The shadow looks down at his children and wife grave “We are here come there is no reason for you to stay there anymore.” The shadow looks up and called over his now adult grandchild and gives them all hugs and wave goodbye at them. He takes off into the sky crying leaving his home.

8 509Stitches
When Lidiyana awoke, she wasn't alone. Instead, she returned to the world with Gareth - a man who tended to her after a horrific accident left her in a coma. He's strange, but also kind in his own way, helping her regain her memories and teaching her about their former relationship. However, as Lidiyana learns more about the world around her, things may not exactly be as they seem. Stitches is a fantasy web serial focusing on interpersonal drama, surreal horror and adventure. As a forewarning, it should be noted that Stitches is not for all audiences, as it heavily features various horror elements including some gore and body horror alongside minor elements of sexuality, nudity, drinking, etc. I know there are content warnings, but I did want to clarify exactly what's going on here. Stitches should update every Friday, barring exceptional circumstances.
