DARK SEED:
DARKNESS OVER MANHATTAN
Chapter 1 Hell's Revenge
It is another regular day in class, accept for starters Darius is late for class, he has been coming in late for class for almost a month now. Things have been really heating up since the death of Zimmerman, The Darkness are pulling no stops, until they get Darius's head. "Damn they are growing stronger and stronger in numbers each day."he tells David and Jake in English class. "It's just getting to hard to fight them, and training J is hard enough as it is. Because I'm just learning myself but I have more experience then her, so well I have to." "So what's going to happen now. You and Jenny could battle it out against them. I mean look what she did to Zimmerman, and the best part is that they don't know that she did it, they think it was you." "Jake..." Darius starts "No, Darius. Jake is right you have the element of surprise." "DAVID TAYLOR! If I hear one more word out of your mouth, it will be minus fifty on your paper. (she turns to Darius) And I want to see you Mr. Cobain after class. Terry if you think anything is funny, you can laugh your ass right on down the principal's office. Understood." The class oohs Terry "Yes miss" David, Darius and Terry answer. She turns back and starts writing on the board, Terry says under his breath "Geez you don't have to be a square about it." he then does an impression of Miss Davis holding his nose"If you think anything is funny...." The class starts breaking up into laughter "THAT"S IT! Out of my class, I don't want you back here without a parent. Out now!" He gets up and leaves, "I will return....... I always do." The class applauds him. "Enough you all get minus ten off your papers." "Aw man." "Well I guess that leaves me with zero." Terry says still standing near the door. Miss Davis looks at him, he turns and runs down the hall. "Well it was worth the laugh." Jake says "Jake, minus thirty." "Miss....but" "But nothing, minus thirty. I don't appreciate clowns in my class." Darius thinks, "Well this is going to be one hell of a school day."

Chapter 2 Enter Hell's Angels
After a long and boring lecture about being late for class from Ms. Davis, Darius catches up with his friends. "So been training Jenny hard huh?" Jake nudges Darius, he continues. "She has been coming in real late. I was thinking that maybe you've been keeping her up maybe a little to late hmmm......" Darius emits a low growl. "Sorry, sheesh. I was just joking
around." Darius turns to him he apologies. "I'm sorry Jake, I have been feeling a little agitated. And I've been having these weird dreams too." Jake quickly turns to Darius, David raises an eyebrow, " You too! This is more than a coincidence. What was your dreams about?" "Well I don't
remember much, but it has to do with us, we where in a cave. We had our backs to each other, like we were protecting each other from the shadows, that was surrounding us, I felt a strong force above the shadows. And that's pretty much of what I can remember." Darius replies. "I also been having them in the day, maybe it has to do with something the future?"
"What I remember a little more of what happen in the dream," Anna states, "I see this guy with silver hair leading the forces of shadows against us." Jake and David agree. "DAMN! I wish I knew what this all about." A voice over the intercom cuts off Darius. "the following students report to the principal office afterschool. Darius, Jake, David, Anna Jenny. That's all." "I wonder what's it about?" Jake asks. "Hey it's probably that scholarship we applied for." "Cool, maybe we won it." Jake says They talk on about the scholarship, Darius senses something is not right. He doesn't know what but it has to do with the dreams. As he ponders on, someone watches from around the corner, with his grey eyes, he brushes his white shoulder length hair away from his face. He smiles. He thinks to himself "It has begun, Darius........ It has begun."

Chapter 3 Hell Begins
It is afterschool, Darius is walking in the halls to the principal's office to meet his friends about the scholarship. He notices it is unusually quiet in the halls, and a slight chill. As he turns the corner to head into the principal's office, he gets cut off. "What the!?!" He looks and sees the doors, the lockers ceiling and the floor cover in a long black trench in the middle of the black void he sees a pale white face with white hair and grey eyes. "Hello Darius." "Who the fuck are you? And how do you know my name, your part of the Darkness aren't you?" "No, I'm not. Your questions will be answered, shortly. But first lets see if you are the one called Dark Seed." "What!?!" the coat stretches out and grabs his arms and legs, stretching them out. "AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" he screams in pain as his arms are almost ready to pop. Darius changes into his vampire state, he breaks free from his bonds. The Dark Seed glows. "I'm impress Darius. it seems you are the true holder of the Dark Seed. Any mere mortal would have died, in the matter of seconds, but not you. I'm not here to help you, I'm not here to hurt you. I'm here because of my own reasons, one of them is to see the Darkness destroyed. And you are the prefect candidate for it. Another is to teach to use the Dark Seed to it full potential." Darius looks at him and remarks, "Who are you to come up and teach me how to use my power, first you come popping out of no where nearly ripping my arms and legs out. And your going to teach me? You gotta be fuckin' kiddin'? Who the fuck you think you are? And answer me this, where are my friends?" The figure looks at him and
replies, "They are safe." "Safe? Safe where?" "Safe, (He opens a passageway in his coat and you see Darius friends against the wall unconscious) in here. Not a bright group are they? That jenny though did put up a fight hmmm more like a disagreement, you have taught her well but not well
enough."Darius's rage starts to burn, The Dark Seed, glows darker, "Let them go, and I will cooperate with you." "Oh come on, Darius do you take me for a fool?" "Look I'm going to free my friends, and then I want some answers even if I have to knock you around to get them!" "Darius, if you think you can fight me you don't stand a chance..." "Big words for
such a flying bastard." he interrupt "Look that little trick with my coat is nothing compare to my true power." Darius changes back into his vamp form he screams. "SHUT UP and fight!" The hovering figure's eyes turn blood red, his body expands. "Fight...HA HA HA HA... I'll give you the fight of your life!" His back rips open and wings come out, horns appear on his head. His hair glows white, and he has a sicken smile on his lips, he looks down at Darius as he stands his full height 12 ft, with a wing span of 15ft. Darius is now for once filled with fear. He stands there, not moving filled with fear, the demon slams Darius with it's wings. Darius rolls out of the rubble he stands there, in shock, he has reverted back to his regular state. The Demon reaches out and smacks into a wall knocking him into the gym, taking down a couple of support columns on the way. The class looks shocked. "What the hell!?!" The gym teacher starts to say, but doesn't finish after seeing the Demon enter the room. Darius again gets up, he looks over to see Terry and his sister Rebecca staring at him. Rebecca, looks at Terry and asks "Isn't that....?" "Yeah, that's Darius, he fighting some kind of monster....I must be dreaming." Darius looks up he sees the ceiling is starting to give away, any more stress the ceiling is going to go. The demon enters the gym its wings hitting the ceiling, DArius screams at Terry "TERRY GET DOES PEOPLE OUT OF HERE!" It's too late, the ceiling collapses, and falls on top of the gym class. Darius snaps to reality. He has to get this demon out of here. Darius shifts to his wolf state, he starts running, he charges forward, slashes the demon's wings off. He screams, the demon staggers back and slams into the other wall the building starts to collapse on top of him. Darius wakes up to find he is outside, Darius gets up he looks around he sees firemen everywhere. His friends are ok, they come over to him. "Darius? Are you ok..." Anna asks Darius looks over, "yeah I'm ok, are you all ok?" "Yeah" they answer "Man Darius you really brought down the school." Jake says "we are probably going to be send to different schools until they rebuild the school, that's if they rebuild it. " "Is everyone ok, that wasin the school?" "Yeah Darius, just a couple of bumps and bruises for most people..." Jenny says "Did anyone die?" His friends look away. He asks them again. Jenny looks at him, and says "Yes Darius one person died." Darius looks at her, "Who?" "It was Terry's sister Rebecca." "Becky? No God, No Not Becky...." Darius starts to walk away. "Darius, where are you going?" "Jenny leave him be, Rebecca was like a sister to Darius. Just let him go, he needs time alone." David says The group just watch Darius walk off into the shadows.

Chapter 4 Torment
It has been four months now, Darius stop training Jenny after that accident at school, The Darkness have been growing even more in numbers, Jenny is doing the best she can, without Darius's help. For the past months, there have been no moonlight, just darkness. The school has been partly rebuilded, they are now classes in the building. The police think there was a hidden crack in one of the support beams and nothing more... If they only knew. Darius has hardly been seen around, he does go to some of his class sometimes. Everytime his friends try to talk to him, he slips thru the shadows. It's another day Darius is sitting in english class, looking like he isn't even there. David and Jake gave up trying to talk to him. They are truly worried about him, and Terry who is also there. Terry has been taking it hard, he doesn't joke anymore, doesn't laugh, and yet just like Darius alone by himself refuses to talk to anyone. He friends believe that Darius blames himself for what happen to Rebecca, which wasn't his fault. But he isolates himself, he didn't even go to the funeral.
Terry gets up. He walks over to Darius's desk. "Terry can you please sit down." Miss Davis says. Terry doesn't even listens, he just stares at Darius. "How can you just sit there?" Darius doesn't even look up "How? You son of a bitch! I heard about what happen to you, your friends told me, you said that you wouldn't let anyone get hurt, by them you didn't want that to happen. But no, I saw you just stand there and let my sister die. You cared for her, and you just stood there. You just fucking stood there." He grabs Darius by his collar of his shirit, he still doesn't look at Terry, he just looks down at the floor, and says nothing. "I FUCKING HATE YOU! I'LL KILL YOU DARIUS I FUCKING SWEAR!!!! I SWORE ON MY SISTER'S GRAVE THAT I WILL KILL YOU!" He starts to swing Darius around. The class scream at him to stop. Terry tosses Darius out the seventh floor window. Darius still does nothing, doesn't even try to save himself, he hits the ground with a bone breaking thud. Everyone rushes to the windows. Terry screams out the window "I WILL FUCKING HUNT YOU DOWN DARIUS, I WILL FIND YOU AND KILL YOU, YOU HEAR ME I WILL KILL YOU!!!" Darius gets up out of the impact he created and staggers to the trees and slips into the shadows.
