Falling Into The Darkness Novels & Stories

And then, in just a snap, everything went black. The darkness swallowed me whole, like falling into an endless abyss. I could hear Vladimyr’s and Sebastian’s furious roars echoing in the distance, their rage shaking the very ground beneath me. The walls.. wait or was it trees? Where are we again? The whole surroundings… seemed to tremble, as if the entire world was reacting to their wrath. But I was falling further and further into the void. The weight of exhaustion settled over me, pulling me under as I drifted to sleep. —----

But there was one that I never thought I saw: darkness. The darkness was calling me, provoking me, telling me in my ear that I should submit to it and that everything would be fine. He whispered to me he would take care of everything. He murmured to me to leave everything in his hands and that I no longer had to decide. I must admit that your offer was tempting. It only took a second of hesitation, and I fell. I fell exhausted. I felt my senses numb, and I separated from Mia, returning us to our original state.

We tumble backward, the experience perversely familiar now as we fall back into the void, into the darkness. Into that new world. Leaving everything I love behind.

“It's not like that. It's not something you can get rid of. It's part of me; it's my other half. It's who and what I am. Don’t you see, I am the darkness! To get rid of it would be to get rid of me. I'm no good for you. I will only cause you pain and suffering. I am the darkness! I'm the monster everyone's afraid of. I'm the beast in the dark that children have nightmares of. I am the evil from the depths of hell and will only snuff out your light, little angel. You and I can never be together!” He said with a deep and rough voice. Smoke seeped from his body again, and a dark aura rose from his body like a shadow looming over her.

“Watch everything. Trust no one. Not tonight.” The figure paused, hesitation in its step, then retreated into the fog. But the tension didn’t fade. My chest heaved, mind racing with fear and exhilaration. He turned to me, eyes smoldering. “You see? Even the past… even the lies… they follow us. But it doesn’t matter. Because fire… fire consumes all.” “Even me?” I whispered, voice trembling. “Even my heart, my mind… my everything?” “Yes,” he murmured, fingers brushing my cheek, pulling me closer. “Because once you surrender… fully… there’s no turning back. And you… you’ve already surrendered.”

What follows is a painful fall and then. DARKNESS!!! ÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷

When he got to the center of the book, the characters became clearer so that he could read a long forgotten story. "... and God's power became weaker. People gave themselves to their despair.

He sees me smiles and responds mischievously. "No, I'm fine at the moment," I nod and leave even more nervous than when I entered. I walk into the kitchen and into the office, where Pit has another order list in hand. “What's up Nisha?” he asks when he sees my face. “Who is Dark?” I ask, what happens next alarms me. The list falls from her hands and the color in her face vanishes completely, she opens her eyes wide and says in barely a whisper. “Where have you heard that name?” I hesitate for a moment.

I say to the love of my life as I succumb to darkness, feeling the world slip away. Darkness was all around me, I felt disconnected from my body. Mentally, I feel like I am straying beyond thought and time. I feel like I am falling into a deep dark abyss, one that I have no power or hope to move from. My body feels heavy like it is weighed down by heavy anvils. It is like I am floating into the vast unknown of this darkened realm, wherever I am. I fight my best to find something, anything, anywhere that I can go.

I feel helpless, trapped in a cycle I can't seem to break. The room grows darker as evening approaches, but I make no move to turn on a light. The encroaching darkness seems to mirror my sinking emotions, each shadow deepening the pit of despair I've fallen into. It's as if the darkness is a physical manifestation of the gloom that has taken residence in my mind, creeping into every corner of the room and my psyche alike.
