BLACK
The men refused to acknowledge the thing of darkness right in front of them as they all brought out their weapons hoping they would be able to scare me away at least. The man walked toward me and leaning against my body he grabbed my groin hiding his shock at how huge I was."This is what is going to happen, we would rape her while you watch and when we are done we would have you in the ass as well." The leader of the gang whispered to me smirking as he spoke those words. I was a lot of things but certainly not gay, I sure was enjoying the attention I was getting from the man. I enjoyed the way his hands felt around my groin but knew well enough the woman right in front of us would make me feel much better than how I was feeling.I held the man's hand and squeezed hard, turning it in the process till the man's bones made a cracking sound that echoed in the night."You don't get to touch me unless I say so, you get that right ?" I said, staring deep into the man's eyes. The man could see the darkness in my eyes now, he recognized it and was submissive. I was no mere man than the devil from hell itself."Back off, stay away from the lady!" The man said hoping none of his men when stupid enough to shoot, but he hoped wrong. THE GUNSHOT ECHOED IN THE air bringing everything to a still and slow motion as time appeared to be paused. The men threw cautious glances around themselves. Surprised that I was still standing despite being shot a while ago.The man stared at the barrel of the pistol that still had smoke emitting from it like hot steam, he stared in disbelief and I smiled to myself thinking about how shocked the man must be, I looked at the woman I was trying to save and could she was already passed out on the floor most probably from the shock of the gunshot. My gaze was on the woman and the man I had grasped and broken his hand. I let go of the man's hands as he was now a believer in my darkness and instead I stared deep into the one that had just shot at me My anger was so strong that he couldn't hold it down. It burned deep down in my throat, and chest, as I stared deep into the man's soul.The man instinctively raised the gun to his temple as his fingers trembled. He appeared to be under my control and couldn't stop himself from doing whatever he was doing as the sound of the gun echoed for the second time that evening.My eyes skimmed up an inch to find the woman still lying on the ground. I didn't see the man running at me with a baton clutched in his hands. I saw it flashing across my face hitting me by the side before breaking into tiny pieces. I turned to look at the man who stared in disbelief, I held him with one of my hands and lifted him clear off the ground as my gaze darkened. I stared into the man's soul as well possessing it with my mind controlling darkness, I conveyed more darkness into him as I watched the man walk over to the wall right across him.The man continued hitting his hard against the brick till finally his skull cracked open and he fell to the ground dead as well.I stared at the one still holding the pocket knife, I watched as his sense of humor faded into fear.'This was all I wanted,' I thought to myself, I fed on their fear as the power within me stirred to the open.As I walked toward the man, he dropped his pocket knife and fell with one knee to the ground. He had become a believer and also a believer in my darkness.I decided that I was going to exploit every bit of opportunity, I needed a large army as I was aware my brother wouldn't let go of his power that easily. I needed an army from both realms. and would do everything to have it."Rise believers ." The black-haired Demi-man whispered to the two men left. "I am not going to kill you two but your soul had been compelled to be my slave ."The two men bowed their heads in reply as their souls were filled with darkness, a darkness that consumed every little good in them."Now find me anything you mortals travel with here, I have to get your queen away from here," I muttered to them.The two men rose on their feet and walked away, as I leaned over at the woman and stared into her beautiful eyes. She was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen and kind of triggered a soothing effect on his soullessness."Help will be here soon my queen. " I whispered to her as he brushed away the hair that had fallen over her face. I could still see her naked bosom hanging out as the cold breeze blew. I took it between my lips and watched as she moaned."We would save this for later," I whispered again before putting his jacket around her and lifting her easily from the ground. A few moments later, I was sitting comfortably on the sofa of a car, the men I had converted earlier were at the wheel driving."Stop here, I feel this is the place," I whispered from the back of the car.I lifted the woman and placed her across my shoulders as I walked toward her door after she had murmured it to me in her state of coma."Master, where do we go from here?" One of the men asked bowing slightly."Walk into the streets and corner every crook and nanny and find me more believers," I said from behind my shoulders."Who do we say you are, how would they believe us?"I dropped the woman to the ground and walked toward the men, placing my hands on their shoulders I compelled powers into them."Tell them the dark one is here walking among the mortals, tell them the apocalypse is here, and with it comes Hades," I whispered.The men turned and bowed slightly before getting into the car like people possessed and driving away, I realized they were indeed possessed, possessed by a greater evil.I stared at the woman on the ground, I looked around and lifted her foot mat to find the key hiding under the piece of rug.Turning the key in the keyhole, I opened her door and dragged her across the ground into the house as thunder flashed across the face of the sky in a loud clasp.It was a good thing I had a good intuition for knowing things.AZRAELThe portal way back to the underworld whirled open in the abyss sending flickers of its light around. I could hear the whispering sounds of the hoverers' damned souls as they echoed around me in the dimmed darkness that was filled with the souls of the hoverers gnashing their teeth in demolition.I took back my animalistic form, it was painful doing so but I had done it a lot of times over the past and had gotten accustomed to the pain.I fell to the ground as my tail grew out and my fangs and claws became elongated, my eyes became red as flames. I threw back my head and roared in a voice that sent the hoverers scampering. They had witnessed this fate a lot of times and couldn't wait to be a victim of it.A wave of energy radiated away from my body, and every soul within the reach of the waves fell to the ground as skulls and dark fragments.I sat poised above the ground and whistled for my unicorn that soon came flying out of its abode, it sparkled in the darkness and was a s
BLACKOutside the moon was hidden by the early morning clouds, it shone faintly through the window blinds, forging the perfect mirror image of the woman lying asleep as a Shadow on the wall.The fan in the room rotated slowly, Carmela lay on the sofa heaving heavily, she appeared to be in a deep sleep as Black stared at her closed eyes that had not fluttered all those while.For Black earth was the closest thing to home, he stood in front of the bathroom mirror. ACouldn'tsee his human body but instead, the animalistic body he used in the underworld stared back at him.Something bitter twisted in his stomach as it rumbled, he bent over what looked to him as a white vessel and threw up the darkish content of his bowel.He appeared weak after vomiting, the time he had spent in the mortal realm was having a toll on him and tried to figure out why it bothered me so much. He knew he was running out of time and his human body was running out of time, he had to find a soul to feed on or his
BLACKI walked down the street back to Carmela's house engulfed in a plague of thoughtful silence. The two gold coins in my pocket jingled as I walked under the burning sun, in a way Azrael's voice was still at the back of my mind. I could still hear the echoes of my name being calledA tingling feeling wrapped around my lungs like a ring of fire — it was a mixture of fear in different shades – but I didn't dare show it.I was aware that like myself, my brother fed on fear, and if I showed even a little of it, he would find me as quick as lightning.I walked toward Carmela's door slowly, taking my time to glance around at the surroundings. She had a beautiful home, a red rug lying outside on a marble tiled flooring, a wooden staircase that led to the door well polished and shining under the reflection of the sunlight.I walked toward the door and knocked quietly with the silver knocker waiting for a minute before knocking again.Behind the door Carmela watched as water trickled from t
A Month Later.......I searched for him all around the earth, but he was nowhere to be found. This is what my father had warned me against. My brother is up to no good. I'm sure he is somewhere, hidden. He managed to distract me with his scent so I wouldn't be able to find him. Black had always been cunningly swift with things. For fear of not wanting to cause our father to anger, I decided not to tell him about the fact that I hadn't seen Black. It is baffling when the realization hits me about my brother's survival on earth. He is not an earthly being to have survived on earth for more than a month. There's only one way to find out, but I sincerely hope it is not what I'm thinking. Black can be cruel most times, but I rather prefer to believe that he's found some other way of survival on earth and not through the way I think, because if that was the case, then I fear that disaster is fast falling on earth and I will have to be quick in finding my brother so I can take him away as
A Year In The Mortal World......I stared at Carmela like she was some rare treasure. I still cannot believe that I finally succeeded after much trial and error. I know just how much I've put into this. It wasn't easy.I know I would be damned if I was ever caught by Azrael, but I don't think I would regret it now if I was to be caught and taken back to the immortal realm. My reason for staying in the mortal realm for the past year has finally been fulfilled. Carmela laid on the bed, beautifully rubbing the swell of her stomach. "I can't believe we will be having our baby soon. I'm the happiest person on earth," she uttered, while gazing at her stomach with admiration. She was happy indeed, but her joy was just a tip compared to how happy he felt. If only she knew what was inside her. That was my most treasured gold, my life and death. All of my sacrifices and going against the law were all for a great cause. My seed had finally sprouted. All that was needed was for me to wat
It's been more than a year, but still, I have yet to find Black. I can't believe he keeps hiding himself by distracting me with musical instruments. He knows that is the only thing he can actually do to ward me off. Over the years, I have gotten a perfect plan on how to take Black away from the mortal world. Our father is yet to find out about the havoc Black had created in the mortal realm all because he wanted to live in the mortal realm for all eternity. I will never let his plans come to reality. I travelled back to the immortal realm and summoned Black's unicorn. Good thing he didn't take his unicorn with him, though it was the same reason he didn't take his unicorn, so he wouldn't be traced with it. But too bad because that is the only way to find him. I summoned Sapphire and he answered. Since I had power over all things in the mortal and immortal realm, summoning Black's unicorn to come to me wasn't an exception. "Lord Azreal, what can I do for you?" I smiled at Black's
I had no idea what was going on, all I knew I knew was the fact that I was being locked up in my room by Black. I called after him to come back. He turned around and walked towards me. I thought he wanted to open the door, but he rather told me to listen to him carefully. "If I never return, you must take care of my seed, and make sure he's safe. I will come back for you and for him. With that, he disappeared into thin air. I was left dumb struck. I couldn't scream or call him back. All I knew was that he disappeared into thin air before my very eyes. It's been a month ever since he left and never came back. I still couldn't understand why he had to disappear in front of him. I had no idea who he was and why he disappeared. I placed my hands on my protruding stomach, tears trickled down my eyes. I'm the twinkle of an eye, a lot has happened to me. I had no idea I would love this man so dearly to the extent of being pregnant for him. Just when I thought we were going to have a co
I saw the thunder and lightning of havoc being summoned for no good reason. That means something terrible was happening in the mortal realm. Just then,the book of souls opened on its own accord. There's a soul to be collected. I reached for the book and studied who it was, and to my surprise, it was an infant born some minutes ago. Unfortunately, the soul of the child had to be taken. I quickly journeyed to the mortal realm and found the dead child. Seeing a child for the first time made me feel somewhat sad. This was strange. It has never happened before. I wonder why I was feeling that way. Why am I feeling so bad for the dead child? Still, from my observation, it seemed the child was born blind. What an ill fate for a little infant to have. "Please don't take my child away. Death have mercy on me, he's my only hope," the mother of the dead child cried bitterly. The child was meant to die and not live. I glanced at the book of souls where the red light indicated that the child w
