Novel & Cerita A Dark Presence Approaches Calamity

Heat, unlike anything the Omega had ever felt, radiated from the shadows, which somehow had a deep red glow from within. Kyle's head rapidly moved from side to side, and his eyes darted in every direction. He was horrified at what he saw inside those shadows. He swore he was looking into hell. The dark red inside looked like an inferno from the pits of hell, and the things down there were things no one should ever see. It had the Omega praying to the Goddess, begging to save him. Kyle covered his face with his arms as he prayed. His body trembled as the monster raged around him, ripping the rogues apart piece by piece.

Instead, Daego would stare at the baby for long moments, his gaze heavy and distant, then turn away as if the infant were a stranger. Ragina was worried about Daego. Haemos and Markaus noticed the change, too. No one could reach him anymore. Gildeon wondered what had broken his father. Then, one day, Daego began mumbling about the coming of darkness. No one understood him—until it came. The salamanders were convening when a massive, relentless shadowy wave rolled in from the horizon like a tsunami. The seers lined up, casting their protective barrier, but the dark wave was too strong.

The elder hesitates only a moment before lifting the sword higher, the signal. The signal for the gods to bear witness. The signal for the end. But before the blade can swing… The world darkens. Not gradually. Not like a passing cloud over the moon. Instantly. Light extinguishes. Sunlight vanishes. Gasps fill the square. A cold wind sweeps across the platform, sharp enough to sting. Killian reaches for me, pulling me close. “Stay behind me.” My heart slams against my ribs. “This isn’t normal darkness…” “No,” he agrees harshly. “It isn’t.”

“This is what it wants. The Incorruptible Heart will be broken, her love lost, her resolve broken, she will be weak. Once this is done it will rise and claim the world as its own.” “What the hell is this thing?” she whispered. “Hell?” the man queried. “The Darkness isn’t defined by human beings, or the many faiths of this planet. It simply is. And anything that has happened right up to the point where you leapt from the boat and into its embrace is due to its designs on you, and what you represent.” Before Beatrice could question him, an image danced before her eyes, she was back on the boat, charging down Emily, the recollection made her voice hitch with horror. Then she was back there, liv

I know for a fact that if I was truly settled and contented with what I have for the past centuries, I would have died by now. But I’m not dead, so my heart hasn’t reached it’ contentment. And while I don’t wish to see how it ends, there’s a longing curiosity inside of me that seeks to know what it is could sedate a monster like me. There was none, I thought. Until it happened. The black and white scene. Flashing an image of a school's playground with two people talking to each other. One girl and one boy, smiles on their faces as they both let the wind sway their swings.

The world itself was dimming. The memory hit me with a cold, familiar weight. I had seen this before. During the war with Volodymir. When he had bent the heavens to his will and stolen the sun from the sky, cloaking the world in false night so his Strigoi could rise and slaughter us without fear. That same unnatural darkness was upon us now. Was it possible? Had Dragomir already awakened Volodymir? Or was Dragomir himself capable of this ancient sorcery, this theft of the sun?

I look at it, heart hammering away inside my chest. The mess of ink on the white paper reminds me of the monster that lurks in Nana and Papa’s basement, the one that tried to get Abby and Scott to go downstairs with it.

His heart raced so fast it hurt. The footsteps got closer. The shadow moved forward. The door creaked wider. Eli whispered one last time, his voice barely a whisper. “Cove… please… they are here. I am hiding. The dark is coming.” The shadow stepped inside. The darkness closed around him completely.

"There is no safe place here." I squinted in the distance, where I saw something glinting. "The darkness has declared war on all beings," Serena said. "This isn't just about you, your man, and the flower anymore. It's a full-blown war now." The fury of the darkness reflected in Serena's eyes, and the gloominess of the scene was punctuated by the green fire erupting from the mountains in the distance. I could feel a numbing fear creeping in from within.
