《The Darkness In Your Mind》V1 - Ch 12 Heir to the throne pt 4
Advertisement
We are all standing there dumbfounded for a few seconds before I speak up shouting to give everyone orders "ALRIGHT, WE NEED TO SAVE AS MUCH PEOPLE AS WE CAN AND TRY TO PUT OUT THIS FIRE!" I pause for a moment then continue "ME AND WILL ARE GOING TO TRY TO HELP THE VILLAGERS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VILLAGE AND THEN PUT OUT THE FIRE!"
I pause again this time taking a deep breath and then continuing "LUCY, FALMER, AND SATER YOU GUYS HELP THIS SIDE OF THE VILLAGE, DOES EVERYONE AGREE WITH THIS PLAN?!" Everyone nods and says "YEAH!" I then say "ALRIGHT LETS GO THEN!" Once that is said, Me and Will run to the other side of the village while the other three run to aid the villagers on the side we started at.
There are screams coming from both sides of the village, and as we were getting closer to where we were going they got louder and louder. After about two minutes we arrive at the side of the village we said we would help. Me and Will split off and he runs to one section while I run to the other. Gradually, over time we succeed in saving the villagers.
Some of them have major burns but nothing fatal, so in the end everyone is alive and that's what is most important right now. We also managed to put out the fires, but alas we couldn't save everything and most of the buildings were already completely demolished. We then went back to the other side of the village to meet up with the other three.
Once we meet up with them Falmer says "How did everything go on your side?" I respond "We managed to put out the fires and save all of the villagers but, most of the buildings were destroyed." Sater says "Yeah that's exactly what happened on this side as well, we managed to save everyone and put out the fires but most of the buildings were already burnt practically to the ground."
Will rubs his head and says "What could have caused a fire this big, it almost feels like it may have been started intentionally?" I respond "Yeah, it does seem odd that a fire like this could have spread without anyone realizing until it was too late, after all it covered the entire village." Sater's eyes widen in fear and he suddenly yells out "SHIT, EVERYONE GET DOWN!"
With that we all drop to the ground as quick as we can and just barely avoid what seems to be a fire ball that would have flown right into us if Sater didn't warn us in time. The fire ball lands into the dirt road just outside the village and explodes on impact, leaving a huge fire on the road. The fire dies down quickly since it didn't have anything to spread to because there wasn't much grass.
We all are in shock and staring at the ash left in the road, then a voice speaks up "Tch, I guess missed them." We all turn around and see that four people were standing behind us. Three of the people have horns on their forheads while one has blade like ears, three demons and an elf I can already tell that this might not end well.

The elf is shaking in fear and says "W-What are you doing, our lord said to take him he didn't tell us to kill him." The first demon says "Well he didn't say we couldn't kill anybody with him right?" The elf sighs and then says "No, he didn't say anything like that." The first demon grins and then says "Well then I guess now that we have lured him out we just got to take him back with us right."
The first demon turns to look at me and then says "You there, your coming with us to our lord's castle rather you like it or not, now move out of the way so I can kill those people and we will be on our way." Will, Lucy, Falmer, and Sater are all shaking in fear and sweating bullets. I speak up "Who are you guys and what do you want with me?"
The first demon responds "Our lord has asked us to take you back to his castle no matter what, even if we have to do it by force, I am going to kill the four behind you for fun and so they can't follow us." Lucy starts crying and screams out in fear "NO, I DONT WANT TO DIE BRINE, PLEASE PROTECT ME!" The moment that I saw Lucy crying and heard what the first demon said, I got furious.
I shout "WHAT DID YOU SAY, I WONT LET YOU LAY A FINGER ON THEM AND I'M NOT COMING WITH YOU SO YOU MAY AS WELL LEAVE NOW!" The first demon laughs and then shouts "THEN IN THAT CASE I SHALL KILL THEM AND THIS ENTIRE VILLAGE RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU AND THEN TAKE YOU BY FORCE!"
The first demon then turns around and points an open hand toward the village. A few seconds later a giant fire ball many times bigger than the one that was shot at us forms in front of his open hand. I instantly know that it could wipe out the entire village. It was at this moment, yes at the very second that I saw the fire ball form, that it happened.
I SNAPPED, THERE IS NO WAY FOR ME TO DESCRIBE MY FURY TOWARDS THEM! A BLACK FLAME IGNITED IN MY EYE SOCKETS AND BURNED AWAY MY HOOD, MY BONEY JAW WAS VISIBLY SHAKING AND RATTLING FROM MY GRINDING TEETH, AND MY BONE HANDS WERE CLENCHED EXTREAMELY TIGHTLY AND SHAKING IMENSLY!
I INSTANTLY RUSH TOWARDS THE FIRST DEMON AND TRY SLASH HIM WITH THE SWORD WILL GOT ME, BUT IT BREAKS ON IMPACT DUE TO IT NOT BEING MEANT FOR ACTUAL COMBAT. LUCKILY IT DISTRACTED THE FIRST DEMON AND HE STOPED CASTING THE SPELL TO TURN TOWARD ME AND LAUGH.
The first demon says "Ha, you expected a flimsy training sword like that to wound me, how humerous." THIS MAKES ME MORE ANGRY AND I START TO SCREAM THE CHANT FOR MY SHADOW GRASP SPELL "SHADOW GRASP AWAKEN! ENGULF THE SOULS OF THY ENEMIES IN ETERNAL DARKNESS! FEAST ON THEIR LIVES AND FORSAKE THEIR BODIES TO THE VOID!!"

THE PORTAL THEN FORMS AND THE GIANT PURPLE MIST HAND EMERGES FROM IT AND GRABS THE FIRST DEMON! The first demon shouts out "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS THING!?" THE HAND STARTS SLOWLY DRAGGING THE FIRST DEMON TOWARD THE PORTAL, IT'S AS IF IT'S HAVING A BIT OF TROUBLE DRAGGING HIM!
The first demon begins to panic and shouts to the other demons "SHIT SHIT SHIT, QUICK GET THIS THING OFF OF ME ITS GOING TO PULL ME INTO THAT PORTAL!" THE OTHER TWO DEMONS PULL OUT THEIR SWORDS AND SLASH AT THE HAND, THE HAND THEN LOSES GRASP ON THE FIRST DEMON AND TURNS TOWARDS ME.
THE HAND SHAKES LEFT AND RIGHT SLOWLY AS IF IT'S SOMEONE SAYING NO WITH THEIR HEAD, AND THEN IT GOES BACK INTO THE PORTAL. The first demon is clutching his chest and lets out a sigh of relief before saying "Thanks, who knows where that portal could have led or what would have happened to me once I got pulled in."
ALL THREE OF THE DEMONS TURN TOWARD ME AND THEN LOOK AT EACH OTHER AND NOD. THEY THEN ALL THREE RUSH AT ME, SO I CAST SHADOW BULLET BUT I ONLY MANAGE TO WOUND THEM SLIGHTLY BEFORE THE CONTINUED TO COME AT ME! I THINK ABOUT USING SHADOW ENGULFMENT BUT DECIDE THAT THEY WOULD PROBABLY FIND AWAY TO AVOID IT TOO.
THEN, UNFORTUNALY FOR THEM SOMETHING POPS UP IN MY MIND. THE CHANT FOR YET ANOTHER NEW SPELL HAS APPEARED IN MY MIND! I DESPERATELY SCREAM THE CHANT "SHADOW CURRUPTION AWAKEN! CHANGE THE VERY BEING OF ONE OF THY ENEMIES AND BEND THEM TO MY WILL! MAKE THEM LOSE THEIR PAST SENSE OF SELF AND FALL INTO THE PALM OF MY HAND!"
ONCE I AM FINISHED WITH THE CHANT A PORTAL OPENS ONCE AGAIN ON THE GROUND. HOWEVER, THIS TIME A DIFFERENT GIANT HAND EMERGES FROM THE PORTAL. THIS GIANT HAND IS MADE OF A BLACK MIST AND HAS NO SHARP CLAWS LIKE THE OTHER ONE DID. THE HAND GRABS THE SECOND DEMON THAT WAS RUNNING TOWARDS ME CLUTCHING ONTO HIM TIGHTLY.
THE HAND THEN STARTS TO SQUEEZE THE SECOND DEMON! THE SECOND DEMON SCREAMS OUT IN PAIN "AHHHHH DEMONIC SHIT, NO NO NO, IT HURTS SO FUCKING MUCH, IT HURRRRTS!" AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE GIANT HAND PUTS THE SECOND DEMON DOWN AND DISAPPEARS BACK INTO THE PORTAL!
The other two demons rush up to the second demon and ask him if he is alright, but then they back away after something starts to happen to the second demon. THE SECOND DEMON'S BODY BEGINS TO GET COVERED IN A BLACK MIST AND A FEW SECONDS LATER AFTER THE MIST COMPLETELY COVERS THE SECOND DEMON THE MIST DISPERSES AND DISSAPEARS.
ONCE THE MIST IS GONE THE SECOND DEMON IS REVEALED, HIS SKIN IS NOW PURE BLACK, HE HAS DEEP PURPLE EYES, AND HE LOOKS PISSED. I KNOW WHAT THE SPELL DOES BASED ON THE CHANT, SO ONCE I SEE THE SECOND DEMON LIKE THIS I SHOUT AT HIM "KILL THOSE TWO DEMONS, AND DON'T SHOW ANY MERCY!"
THE SECOND DEMON GRINS AT ME AND NODS HIS HEAD BEFORE SAYING IN A GHOULISH VOICE "As you wish master, I shall dispose of these issues immedietly as you have commanded." THEN THE OTHER TWO DEMONS BACK UP AND GET READY TO FIGHT, THE SECOND DEMON RUSHES AT THEM BOTH AND REACHES OUT HIS HANDS.
A BLACK MIST THEN COVERS THE SECOND DEMONS HANDS AND HE PUSHES THEM FORWARD TOWARD THE OTHER TWO DEMON'S CHESTS. THEN THE SECOND DEMON'S HANDS PEIRCE THROUGH THEIR CHESTS AND OUT THEIR BACKS! THEY BOTH COUGH UP BLOOD AND FALL BACKWARDS.
THEY ARE STILL AFTER THEY HIT THE GROUND SO THE SECOND DEMON PULLS HIS HANDS OUT OF THEIR CHESTS AND THEN STABS INTO THEIR CHESTS AGAIN THIS TIME PEIRCING RIGHT THROUGH THE HEARTS OF THE OTHER TWO DEMONS. THIS ATTACK KILLS THEM INSTANTLY AND THE SECOND DEMON GETS UP AND TURNS BACK AROUND TO LOOK AT ME.
The second demon then says "What would you like me to do next master?" I am now a bit calmer knowing that the demons are now dead. I respond to him "That is all I needed from you, thank you for the help." The second demon then says "As you wish master, I bid you farewell." After the second demon says that, he turns into black mist and dissapears as if he was never there.
I then look at the elf and say "Now then, would you mind explaining why you guys came here and pissed me off?" The elfs face becomes pale with fear and then he says "I-I am truly sorry, it wasn't my intention to anger you, but this was all my lords order, he said to bring you to him and to use force if we have to."
I then say "Oh, and was it you guys who set this village on fire almost killing the villagers?" The elf responds "Y-Yes, but it wasnt my idea, in fact I was against it but those three said that it was the best way to lure you out and they went and set the village on fire." I shake my boney fist with slight anger, "Alright, Take me to this lord of yours, I'm going to have a loooong nice chat with him."
I then turn toward my four freinds and say "I'll be back after I'm done with the man who ordered this, Lucy please explain to Will why I'm a skeleton."
