Evil becomes powerful in the dark, it manifests itself into the shadowy realms of this earth and creates all these horrific creatures. Keep a light source nearby because the sun will soon be setting.... ~

Story Snippet: The Chronicles of Darkness- The Summoning~
The portals to The Dark Side (AKA The Underworld) have been opened with the discovery of an ancient book of satanic rituals that should've been burned a long time ago. There is a very powerful ritual that summons evil when three words are chanted three times, satanic tribes would chant the words and dance around a fire; the only thing that illuminated them in the darkness as creatures would crawl out of the darkness of the night. The book was later on discovered by Violet's rich grandfather who owned a mansion overlooking the sacred satanic forest "Darkwood." Not a lot of people dared to venture into these woods that were always dark because of all the trees that shaded it, there were many rumors of the forest being a very evil place. He would go for walks in it during the day and on one of his walks he came upon the sacred book, stuck in the crevasse of a hollowed out tree stump. It was pretty well hidden, but he noticed something strange stuck inside the stump when he came up to it to take a rest, so he reached in to see if he could get it out. It was pretty tightly wedged inside, so he had to use a bit of force, and through a slight struggle he managed to pull it out. "Hmm must be an old book of some sort..." The book was falling apart and had a cover made of dark brown leather. He carefully opened it and saw strange pictures and text, "Hmm, interesting.... I'll check this out later," he took it home with him. Violet lived with her grandparents, ever since her parents had passed away in a car crash, they had took her in and raised her from a very young age.
"Grandfather, what's that?" she asked as he walked in carrying the book. She had been laying on the sofa reading, one of her favorite pass-times aside from voodoo and witchery.
"I found this on my walk, it appears to be a very old book. We can add it to our collection," he started walking towards the big hall that led to all the rooms, including the library.
"Grandfather, can I see it?" she was now filled with curiosity.
"Oh sure, just be careful dear. It's already falling apart." he handed it to his grand-daughter, whose eyes were lit-up as she gently ran her hand over the cover, feeling the indents in the leather that made strange symbols.
"Neat...." she took it up into her room, eager to read it. The next few hours were spent flipping through the book and reading different parts of it. Some of the words were starting to fade and hard to make out. "Kanta, lumen, sentar..." She whispered as she ran her finger over the text, "Chant these three words, three times..."
Unaware of the evil that would soon be released, she repeated the phrase two more times and shortly after heard a strange sound from under her bed. Shrugging it off, she continued reading. "Portals to 'The Dark Side' will be opened and evil will be set free......" Her eyes turned wide as she heard more rustling from under her bed and strange whispers. Suddenly a doll hand reached out from under her bed and she shrieked. Grabbing the book, she jumped off the bed and ran towards her bedroom door. She quickly skimmed through the text, "To close the portal, chant the same phrase again three times. But this time, in reverse." The doll poked it's head out and revealed glaring red eyes, "Sentar, lumen, kanta!" Violet quickly chanted, three times. And the doll fell on the ground, lifeless. A sound of slowly dissipating demon voices was heard and then pure silence. Violet stood there, still in shock, while clutching the book close to her. Slowly, a smirk formed on her face.
Daniel Dawnstone had been having these strange dreams every night, and they all consisted of the same events; hell on earth. Just when you thought it was already hell on earth, the portals to the underworld are opened and ultimate chaos ensues.
Danny woke up with a raging headache. "Where's the damn advil?" He fumbled through his kitchen cabinets.
He took two pills and then sat down on the couch, with his head in his hands. "This feels like the worst hangover ever and I didn't even drink last night..."

The Chronicles of Darkness ~ Danny The Darksider
Danny wrestled his friend Seth to the ground where they rough and tumbled around on the pavement. Seth bit down on Danny's arm and caused him to scream in pain, "You asshole!" Danny punched him and quickly retaliated. He didn't want to actually hurt Seth. They were both possessed by demons, however Danny was able to control his. Seth had been completely overtaken and now the sun was starting to come up. If Danny didn't get him home in time, he would burn to death on first contact with sunlight. He got up and started running down the street, Seth followed. "Yeah, that's right bring him this way.." Danny turned the corner. When they were nearing Seth's house, Danny stopped and noticed Seth's cat sitting on his porch. He called out to it and it replied with a hiss and glare of red eyes. "Not you too.." Danny looked back at Seth that was now making his way up the driveway, "Hey, keep your cat locked up at night will you?" The cat jumped on Danny and Seth joined. Dawn was beginning to set in. Danny concentrated his power with all his force, he could feel it boiling in his veins. Suddenly he shot up and grabbed Seth by the collar of his shirt and the cat by the scruff of his neck. He was twitching with sudden impulses of evil, trying to control them as much as he could. The demons inside him had fully been awaken and wanted to play too. He shook himself out of it and gritted his teeth, concentrating on getting inside. He could feel how powerful he was with every movement he made. He went in through the back door of the house and locked the cat in his little traveling cage in the basement and tied Seth to his bed with a belt on one post and a scarf on the other. "I told you not to stay out late." He could hear Seth's parents mumbling in their bedroom and he quickly made his way back outside through his bedroom window, "Later."
On his way back home, he noticed Roxie had escaped. She must've gone out looking for him after he had left last night, even after he warned her to not go out late. She must've been worried. She was possessed and had horns coming out of her head to match his. The sun was just starting to peak out from behind the mountains and Danny ran and tackled her into the nearest shady spot, behind a bush. She growled and fought him as he held her down, "Just stay still, will you?" He tried to devise a plan to get her back home safely. Then he remembered he was wearing a jacket and took it off to use as a shield for the sun. He ran back home trying to hold Roxie in one hand as she struggled to be set free and his jacket in the other, holding it up in front of both of them. "Good thing this is leather," he thought as he could feel the heat of the sun penetrating through it. When he finally got home he collapsed on the couch, exhausted. Roxie seemed to be slowly going back to normal, although still a little violent. She nibbled on Seth's ear as he lay down next to her with an arm over her, keeping her down. "Hey, take it easy," he pulled away.
"Oh come on, you like it," he could tell Roxie was no longer possessed because her voice was normal and playful again. "Did we fall asleep like this last night?"
"Yeah, we just passed out I guess," Danny was relieved she didn't remember anything that had happened.
"Well, I know you were worried about Seth cause he was going to that party and you were trying to take off," she sat up on the couch and rubbed her head where the horns had once been, "Well, I guess we just ended up passing out."
"That was probably up until the part when she got possessed..." Danny thought to himself.
She then got up and walked into the kitchen, "I have a huge headache, I need some advil..." Danny could hear her searching through the cabinets. "Could you grab me some too?" He rubbed his temples and groaned.
~The Realm of Darkness~
Danny was spit out into a spiral of what seemed like never-ending darkness. He could hear the words he had chanted echoing in his head, "Kanta, lumen, sentar...."

Danny The Darksider/Demonhunter
Daniel Dawnstone had been having premonitions from an early age. Being able to predict what's going to happen helped him avoid a lot of things, even his own death. Close to dying in a car crash when he was 17, Daniel's psychic abilities were finally legitimized when he got a vision of the accident before it happened and a sudden impulse to get out of the car. Shortly after, his friends suffered a gruesome death after a huge cargo truck rammed into them as they crossed an intersection and they died on impact. "That could've been me..." he thought when he was at their funeral. Their bodies had been left severely mutilated so they did not have open caskets. Daniel cringed at the thought of what his friend's suffered while he silently grieved.
Ever since then, Daniel had been somewhat of a consultant for things. He served as a decision maker for friends. He was their confidante. Especially his girlfriend, Roxy Madison, who tended to be naive at times.
Recently, Daniel had been having nightmares of this dark place where evil roamed free. He would wake up sweating and mumbling "No, no.." In his dreams, portals where being opened and evil seeped out from every shadowy nook. This nightmare repeated itself, every night, for a month as if desperately warning him of what was to come. He could recall three specific words from his dream, "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar...." Chant these three words, three times..... That's what the whispering voices would tell him. It was a battle between the forces of good and evil that was slowly taking place as people remained unaware of the doom that was upon them.
Evil manifested itself in the darkness that loomed over the land at sun down, where it became powerful, creating these monstrosities.
Chanting the three sacred words, three times, in any dark place could open a portal and release the evil that was being confined. Summoning creatures that sunlight could destroy in an instant. So they remained lurking in the shadows, where their power was more powerful than ours, until sun down....
Someone had broken the seal and evil had been set free, Daniel Dawnstone had been warned of this in his dreams and visions. And now it was possessing anything it could, most were weak to it's power and became slaves of evil, including Daniel's girlfriend Roxy Madison. But since Daniel could foresee these forces taking over him, he was able to prevent them from completely manipulating him and taking over his body. Instead, through a great struggle, Daniel found a way to manipulate these forces and take their power to his advantage. With diabolic resemblances, Daniel fought to keep the demons that possessed him under control and use his new found supernatural powers to defeat the evil and help save the world from darkness, as well as his beloved girlfriend. Every day at nightfall, these forces would possess Daniel and he would set off to fight and destroy the creatures that lurked the land. And every night his girlfriend would transform into an evil bitch, trying to kill him, and he had to keep her locked up. She would escape and he had to track her down, protecting her from the sunlight. If she was exposed to any sunlight while demons still possessed her, she would be burned to death. His friends were of no help because they too were being possessed by demons. leaving his bedroom light would only chase away the monsters, but it wouldn't kill them. Daniel would often leave his bedroom light on at night and keep Roxy, who he had bribed into being his roomate, tied down to the bed. "Ooh, kinky.." she would tell him and he would roll his eyes. She became far too powerful when she was possessed and awfully resistant.
"Have you ever been afraid of the dark, Seth?" He asked his friend.
Seth chuckled, "What am I five?"
"Well now you have a reason to be afraid, bullshit aside." Seth saw a flash of evil in his eyes.
"What is that supposed to mean?" A slight feeling of fear overcame him.
"Just do me a favor and keep your night light on..." The sun would be setting soon and there was no time to waste. "Oh and don't stay out too late."
"Sure, okay 'mom..' I'll do that.." He played along.
"I'm serious, Seth. If you want to stay alive, that is. Look, I have to go." He then took off, "I'll explain later!"
Seth stood watching him with a confused look as Daniel raced home.
"Daniel, do you know yin and yang is the balance of positive and negative energy, creating balance and harmony?" Roxie held up her necklace that had a yin and yang charm. And then it came to Daniel, they had to find yin and yang, because evil was taking over and destroying everything. Later on, they meet an ancient Chinese scholar who teaches them about yin and yang and shows them how much more evil there is than good. He showed them a picture of the Earth and colored more than half of it with a black marker. "We need to restore balance and harmony to the land. Daniel, you have undoubtedly exceptional powers that you need to use in order to fulfill this task, you may be our last hope." And with that he left them with a map of the famed Stone of Light that lays in an ancient tomb of some old ruins. The stone that can absorb light was left out in the sun for hundreds of years and it became so powerful they had to lock it away in a chest and bury it. The stone possessed so much power that it could start fires. The Stone of Light that destroys darkness must be recovered because it's power might be the only thing that can save us when nightfall comes and there is no sunlight to protect us. Synthetic light is not powerful enough, although it can temporarily ward off the evil that lurks out of the darkness. The Stone of Light that absorbs sunlight can burn these creatures simply by holding it up towards them and reflecting it's light unto them. "The darkness is suspicious, and evil manifests into it, concealing itself. So you must carry a source of light with you," the man warned them.
Daniel knew of this and Roxy looked over at him, "Is this why you tie me up every night before bed?"
"I must protect you.." Daniel took her by the hand.
~Preface~
Every night, Daniel Dawnstone possesses supernatural powers as demons try and take over his body. Through a great struggle, he finds a way to manipulate these forces of evil and use them to his advantage. He becomes extremely powerful and can destroy these evil creatures that curse the world at night.. Ghouls, demons, witches, the undead that are possessed and rise from their graves... What takes place at night is far more gruesome than your worst nightmare. And sometimes the only way to destroy something is to give it a taste of its own kind.
Monsterpedia-
Darklings: Evil manifests itself into the darkness creating creatures.
Phantomimes: Ghosts imitating evil. Playing tricks on you. Simon says... Wait, who the hell is Simon? Satan.~
Corpservants: The dead are possessed by evil spirits and rise from their graves. Not your typical "brain-eating" zombies; these aren't as picky, they will consume you whole. They're much more intelligent and evil. Their eyes turn red and their bodies are used as puppets. It's easier to possess the dead because they don't resist.
Daniel visits a psychic that helps him manipulate his abilities furthermore. She tells him that the saying "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar" was a chant used in ancient rituals to summon evil. The dead would rise and creatures would be set loose from the shadows. Someone must have gotten their hands on this knowledge, someone power hungry. Daniel had a vision of the strange girl he had crossed paths with when Seth went missing and he set out to look for him. She seemed very suspicious as if she was hiding something and then he remembered her wings she had told him were fake. "I think I know who it is..." He then took off. "That book must be burned and I know Violet has it."
"Oh, how cute.. You already look like one of my minions.." Violet laughed as Daniel lunged towards her. His horns and tail were quite visible and Violet could tell it was taking a great resistance to not let the demons that possessed him take complete control of him. "Just give up already, people have tormented me for so long, now it's my turn."
"I will never give up," he snarled.
"Oh, but if you're dead there's nothing you can do about it," Violet flew over him, "And then I shall possess your corpse and you will inevitably be my servant. So it's your choice, dead or alive?"
A psychic boy who acquires supernatural powers and a gothic chick who plans on being the Queen of Darkness. Interesting combo, great story unfolds....
Anywhere there is darkness can potentially be a portal to The Dark Side. "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar..."
When goodness bans evil from the land, it is sent to The Dark Side where it remains confined until someone breaks the seal and releases it with these three words that you must chant three times: "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar..." The portal is opened and evil roams free again. Lurking out of the shadows, all sorts of incarnations of evil are summoned.
"Creatures are coming out the darkness!" Nora yelled.
"Oh no...." Danny stood in front of his little sister, "Someone has broken the seal again.." The sun was beginning to slowly disappear from behind the mountains. Evil spirits roamed free and possessed anything they could, Nora was their first victim. Her eyes turned red and her teeth transformed into fangs.
"Is that so?" She turned to face her brother.
~The Kingdom of Darkness~
Daniel must venture to the Kingdom of Darkness and find a way to seal the portal.
Where does all that evil go and where is it contained? Do we create it or does it inspire us to create?
"I'm really dangerous right now," he could feel the evil pulsing through his veins waiting to erupt.
Roxy ran over to him, "Danny, I saw everything!" She hugged him.
He shook with anxiousness and pushed her away, "Stay away from me..."
She looked confused, "Wh-what are you saying..." She then noticed the horns protruding from his head and the tail erecting from his back.
"Stay away from me, it's for your own good." He tried to hide his face.
Daniel was rolling around in his bed, he could feel a pulsing pain in his temples as if something was pushing it's way out. "Is my dream coming true?" He remembered demons possessing him as horns grew out of his head and sure enough he could feel two small bumps there. Then he felt diabolical forces taking over him and he tried sitting up, but was quickly thrown back down on the bed and started rolling around as if he was wrestling with himself. He grabbed on to his head, yelling through gritted teeth as he fought the demons that were trying to control him. Suddenly the evil forces within him ceased, and he got up and stood in front of the mirror, he touched his face that now had a scaly texture. His eyes were bloodshot and he touched his canine teeth that had become long and pointed. The demons inside of him would still attempt to take over, but Daniel had found a way to keep them tamed and manipulate their evil power...
He set out into the night and could see creatures coming out from the shadows. The only areas that seemed uninhibited were under streetlights and Daniel quickly ran under one. Then he spotted Roxy and Seth running towards him, "Danny!" They called out his name and something about their voices didn't seem right. As they got closer to him their faces became illuminated and he saw that the demons had taken over them too. They stopped right before reaching him and seemed to be afraid of the light source that was encompassing him. Then Daniel realized that the demons were afraid of light and this is why they hid in the darkness. Although, synthetic light was not powerful enough to destroy them, only sunlight. Daniel ran from streetlight to streetlight as his possessed friends followed him, trying to attack him every chance they got. Then he heard Violet's voice above him, she had red demon wings coming out of her back.
"Oh, Daniel. It seems like you're the only one that the evil can't possess.. Interesting." She flew down next to him, "Won't you just call it game over already? It's you against me and my army of darkness, you really don't stand a chance."
"I always knew there was something weird about you, Violet!" Daniel snarled at her, his demon tail flicking back and forth.
"Down, boy!" She smiled, "Look, I'm tired of being teased and tormented, now it's my turn."
"Give me the book, I know you have it. I've seen it in my psychic visions!"
"Oh, you're psychic are you?" She flew back up, "Why didn't I know this until now?"
"Because all you are is some chick who got her hands on something she wasn't supposed to! Something that should have been burned a long time ago!"
"Hmm oh yes, very nice work detective.. Well it seems like the puzzle pieces are coming together for me as well. It appears that since you are able to predict the future you can prevent these forces from controlling you and manipulate their powers to your own advantage..." She flew back up, "I shall summon greater forces to possess you..."
Roxy and Seth smiled at him, exposing their fangs and Violet flew off laughing.
Hundreds of years ago, Satanic tribes that craved power had a book of evil chants that would summon evil. They would chant the three scared words three times during rituals and evil was bestowed upon them. Portals were opened and released these forces of evil from The Dark Side. The book was buried along with the bodies of the people that had written it and later unearthed by archaeologists exploring the area. The book was said to be very sought after by many people and was sealed away in a display case at a museum. Recently a break in had occurred and the book had been stolen; the robbers were caught, but the book was never recovered.
Violet's grandfather lived in a mansion up in the hills, overlooking a forest named "Darkwood" because of all the trees that shaded it making it a dark place even in the day. Satanic rituals were rumored to take place there and Violet's grandfather would go for walks during the day and explore the forest. One day, he came upon a strange book hidden in the crevasse of an old hollowed out tree stump; it was old and falling apart and he picked it up carefully. He flipped through it and thought it looked interesting so he took it home and placed it in his library. Violet would often visit and spend hours in his library room with piles of books next to her, she loved to read and was seldom found without a book in her hand. When she discovered the strange book she was so enthralled with it that she asked to borrow it and her grandfather decided to just let her keep it. Violet loved dark books that talked about spell-making and rituals, she was into all of that voodoo and witchery stuff. At school, she was an outcast and people were often afraid of her. She was bullied and teased, but Daniel Dawnstone would always defend her. She had developed a crush on him, but quickly found out that the feelings were not mutual so she became furious and tried to cast spells on him, all of which failed. Daniel was aware of all her superstitions and he never took anything she gave to him. She never understood why and it made her even more angry that he would always refuse her 'gifts.' But now Violet had gotten her hands on something much more powerful, something that shouldn't be played around with. Energy is very real, demons are very powerful and some even live inside of us; they just need to be summoned. Evil exists and is usually banned by goodness from the land. But where does it go? Everything has to go somewhere. In all of those dark nooks, are secret portals to The Dark Side where it is confined and concealed. It's waiting to be released, to be set free. To take over.~
Daniel made a quick run for his house around the corner after he neared the last streetlight that could aid him. He quickly ran in and locked the door, his sister's voice was heard from down the hall. "Danny?" She called out. When he stood in her doorway, she shrieked and hid under her blankets. "Oh," he remembered his horns and the other demon-like features that were part of his body now, "It's okay, Nora. Just think of it as a Halloween costume, okay?"
She slowly peeked out from behind her blanket, "But it's not Halloween till' next month."
"Well, I'm getting an early start. Now, just go back to bed. We'll talk more in the morning." He noticed her night light and remembered that a light source was necessary for warding off the creatures that came out of the darkness. "Oh and hey, don't forget to put that on every night."
"I always leave my night light on," she grabbed on to her teddy bear and held him close.
"Good," he walked out of her room and closed the door halfway, "Good night Nora, sweet dreams."
"Good night, brudder," Nora had called him 'brudder' ever since she was 3 years old and was barely learning to talk. Since then on, it had just stuck.
Back in his room, Daniel had forgotten to close the blinds. He could see creatures still lurking in the shadows. Suddenly, Roxy and Seth ran up to his window and peered in. "Come out and play, Danny!" his girlfriend called out to him. He was being taunted by her voice and although it didn't quite sound like her, he was slowly being lured in by it. "No," he shook himself out of it. He quickly closed his blinds as they started to pound on his window. Violet's laughter echoed in his head, "That evil bitch," he thought, "I have to find that book she has and burn it and I have no other choice but to seal her away in The Dark Side as well, along with what she released.. She wants to be The Princess of Darkness, well now she can have that dream come true."
Daniel grabbed his head as he tried to control the madness that was slowly taking over him, the demons were starting to fight back, they wanted desperately to take control of him. "No!" he yelled as he clenched his jaw and punched his fist into his bedroom wall, making a hole. "Damn it!" He was thrust back on to his bed and continued to struggle controlling whatever was trying to control him.
He chased after Violet as she flew into the shadows and disappeared. "Kanta, lumen, sentar!" He yelled three times and a portal was opened. He ran towards it and it sucked him in, dropping him into an abyss of darkness where he could hear eerie demon whispers. The only source of light was a fire pit down below that barely illuminated enough for him to see the path he was walking on, as corpse hands tried to grab at him from the darkness. The path led up to a huge mansion.
Ever since then, Daniel had been somewhat of a consultant for things. He served as a decision maker for friends. He was their confidante. Especially his girlfriend, Roxy Madison, who tended to be naive at times.
Recently, Daniel had been having nightmares of this dark place where evil roamed free. He would wake up sweating and mumbling "No, no.."

Synthetic light is not powerful enough, although it can temporarily ward off the evil that lurks out of the darkness. The Stone of Light that absorbs sunlight can burn these creatures simply by holding it up towards them and reflecting it's light unto them. "The darkness is suspicious, and evil manifests into it, concealing itself. So you must carry a source of light with you," the man warned them.
Daniel knew of this and Roxy looked over at him, "Is this why you tie me up every night before bed?"
"I must protect you.." Daniel took her by the hand.
~Preface~
Every night, Daniel Dawnstone possesses supernatural powers as demons try and take over his body. Through a great struggle, he finds a way to manipulate these forces of evil and use them to his advantage. He becomes extremely powerful and can destroy these evil creatures that curse the world at night.. Ghouls, demons, witches, the undead that are possessed and rise from their graves... What takes place at night is far more gruesome than your worst nightmare. And sometimes the only way to destroy something is to give it a taste of its own kind.
Monsterpedia-
Darklings: Evil manifests itself into the darkness creating creatures.
Phantomimes: Ghosts imitating evil. Playing tricks on you. Simon says... Wait, who the hell is Simon? Satan.~
Corpservants: The dead are possessed by evil spirits and rise from their graves. Not your typical "brain-eating" zombies; these aren't as picky, they will consume you whole. They're much more intelligent and evil. Their eyes turn red and their bodies are used as puppets. It's easier to possess the dead because they don't resist.
Daniel visits a psychic that helps him manipulate his abilities furthermore. She tells him that the saying "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar" was a chant used in ancient rituals to summon evil. The dead would rise and creatures would be set loose from the shadows. Someone must have gotten their hands on this knowledge, someone power hungry. Daniel had a vision of the strange girl he had crossed paths with when Seth went missing and he set out to look for him. She seemed very suspicious as if she was hiding something and then he remembered her wings she had told him were fake. "I think I know who it is..." He then took off. "That book must be burned and I know Violet has it."
"Oh, how cute.. You already look like one of my minions.." Violet laughed as Daniel lunged towards her. His horns and tail were quite visible and Violet could tell it was taking a great resistance to not let the demons that possessed him take complete control of him. "Just give up already, people have tormented me for so long, now it's my turn."
"I will never give up," he snarled.
"Oh, but if you're dead there's nothing you can do about it," Violet flew over him, "And then I shall possess your corpse and you will inevitably be my servant. So it's your choice, dead or alive?"
A psychic boy who acquires supernatural powers and a gothic chick who plans on being the Queen of Darkness. Interesting combo, great story unfolds....
Anywhere there is darkness can potentially be a portal to The Dark Side. "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar..."
When goodness bans evil from the land, it is sent to The Dark Side where it remains confined until someone breaks the seal and releases it with these three words that you must chant three times: "Kanta, Lumen, Sentar..." The portal is opened and evil roams free again. Lurking out of the shadows, all sorts of incarnations of evil are summoned.
"Creatures are coming out the darkness!" Nora yelled.
"Oh no...." Danny stood in front of his little sister, "Someone has broken the seal again.." The sun was beginning to slowly disappear from behind the mountains. Evil spirits roamed free and possessed anything they could, Nora was their first victim. Her eyes turned red and her teeth transformed into fangs.
"Is that so?" She turned to face her brother.
~The Kingdom of Darkness~
Daniel must venture to the Kingdom of Darkness and find a way to seal the portal.
Where does all that evil go and where is it contained? Do we create it or does it inspire us to create?
"I'm really dangerous right now," he could feel the evil pulsing through his veins waiting to erupt.
Roxy ran over to him, "Danny, I saw everything!" She hugged him.
He shook with anxiousness and pushed her away, "Stay away from me..."
She looked confused, "Wh-what are you saying..." She then noticed the horns protruding from his head and the tail erecting from his back.
"Stay away from me, it's for your own good." He tried to hide his face.
Daniel was rolling around in his bed, he could feel a pulsing pain in his temples as if something was pushing it's way out. "Is my dream coming true?" He remembered demons possessing him as horns grew out of his head and sure enough he could feel two small bumps there. Then he felt diabolical forces taking over him and he tried sitting up, but was quickly thrown back down on the bed and started rolling around as if he was wrestling with himself. He grabbed on to his head, yelling through gritted teeth as he fought the demons that were trying to control him. Suddenly the evil forces within him ceased, and he got up and stood in front of the mirror, he touched his face that now had a scaly texture. His eyes were bloodshot and he touched his canine teeth that had become long and pointed. The demons inside of him would still attempt to take over, but Daniel had found a way to keep them tamed and manipulate their evil power...
He set out into the night and could see creatures coming out from the shadows. The only areas that seemed uninhibited were under streetlights and Daniel quickly ran under one. Then he spotted Roxy and Seth running towards him, "Danny!" They called out his name and something about their voices didn't seem right. As they got closer to him their faces became illuminated and he saw that the demons had taken over them too. They stopped right before reaching him and seemed to be afraid of the light source that was encompassing him. Then Daniel realized that the demons were afraid of light and this is why they hid in the darkness. Although, synthetic light was not powerful enough to destroy them, only sunlight. Daniel ran from streetlight to streetlight as his possessed friends followed him, trying to attack him every chance they got. Then he heard Violet's voice above him, she had red demon wings coming out of her back.
"Oh, Daniel. It seems like you're the only one that the evil can't possess.. Interesting." She flew down next to him, "Won't you just call it game over already? It's you against me and my army of darkness, you really don't stand a chance."
"I always knew there was something weird about you, Violet!" Daniel snarled at her, his demon tail flicking back and forth.
"Down, boy!" She smiled, "Look, I'm tired of being teased and tormented, now it's my turn."
"Give me the book, I know you have it. I've seen it in my psychic visions!"
"Oh, you're psychic are you?" She flew back up, "Why didn't I know this until now?"
"Because all you are is some chick who got her hands on something she wasn't supposed to! Something that should have been burned a long time ago!"
"Hmm oh yes, very nice work detective.. Well it seems like the puzzle pieces are coming together for me as well. It appears that since you are able to predict the future you can prevent these forces from controlling you and manipulate their powers to your own advantage..." She flew back up, "I shall summon greater forces to possess you..."
Roxy and Seth smiled at him, exposing their fangs and Violet flew off laughing.
Hundreds of years ago, Satanic tribes that craved power had a book of evil chants that would summon evil. They would chant the three scared words three times during rituals and evil was bestowed upon them. Portals were opened and released these forces of evil from The Dark Side. The book was buried along with the bodies of the people that had written it and later unearthed by archaeologists exploring the area. The book was said to be very sought after by many people and was sealed away in a display case at a museum. Recently a break in had occurred and the book had been stolen; the robbers were caught, but the book was never recovered.
Violet's grandfather lived in a mansion up in the hills, overlooking a forest named "Darkwood" because of all the trees that shaded it making it a dark place even in the day. Satanic rituals were rumored to take place there and Violet's grandfather would go for walks during the day and explore the forest. One day, he came upon a strange book hidden in the crevasse of an old hollowed out tree stump; it was old and falling apart and he picked it up carefully. He flipped through it and thought it looked interesting so he took it home and placed it in his library. Violet would often visit and spend hours in his library room with piles of books next to her, she loved to read and was seldom found without a book in her hand. When she discovered the strange book she was so enthralled with it that she asked to borrow it and her grandfather decided to just let her keep it. Violet loved dark books that talked about spell-making and rituals, she was into all of that voodoo and witchery stuff. At school, she was an outcast and people were often afraid of her. She was bullied and teased, but Daniel Dawnstone would always defend her. She had developed a crush on him, but quickly found out that the feelings were not mutual so she became furious and tried to cast spells on him, all of which failed. Daniel was aware of all her superstitions and he never took anything she gave to him. She never understood why and it made her even more angry that he would always refuse her 'gifts.' But now Violet had gotten her hands on something much more powerful, something that shouldn't be played around with. Energy is very real, demons are very powerful and some even live inside of us; they just need to be summoned. Evil exists and is usually banned by goodness from the land. But where does it go? Everything has to go somewhere. In all of those dark nooks, are secret portals to The Dark Side where it is confined and concealed. It's waiting to be released, to be set free. To take over.~
Daniel made a quick run for his house around the corner after he neared the last streetlight that could aid him. He quickly ran in and locked the door, his sister's voice was heard from down the hall. "Danny?" She called out. When he stood in her doorway, she shrieked and hid under her blankets. "Oh," he remembered his horns and the other demon-like features that were part of his body now, "It's okay, Nora. Just think of it as a Halloween costume, okay?"
She slowly peeked out from behind her blanket, "But it's not Halloween till' next month."
"Well, I'm getting an early start. Now, just go back to bed. We'll talk more in the morning." He noticed her night light and remembered that a light source was necessary for warding off the creatures that came out of the darkness. "Oh and hey, don't forget to put that on every night."
"I always leave my night light on," she grabbed on to her teddy bear and held him close.
"Good," he walked out of her room and closed the door halfway, "Good night Nora, sweet dreams."
"Good night, brudder," Nora had called him 'brudder' ever since she was 3 years old and was barely learning to talk. Since then on, it had just stuck.
Back in his room, Daniel had forgotten to close the blinds. He could see creatures still lurking in the shadows. Suddenly, Roxy and Seth ran up to his window and peered in. "Come out and play, Danny!" his girlfriend called out to him. He was being taunted by her voice and although it didn't quite sound like her, he was slowly being lured in by it. "No," he shook himself out of it. He quickly closed his blinds as they started to pound on his window. Violet's laughter echoed in his head, "That evil bitch," he thought, "I have to find that book she has and burn it and I have no other choice but to seal her away in The Dark Side as well, along with what she released.. She wants to be The Princess of Darkness, well now she can have that dream come true."
Daniel grabbed his head as he tried to control the madness that was slowly taking over him, the demons were starting to fight back, they wanted desperately to take control of him. "No!" he yelled as he clenched his jaw and punched his fist into his bedroom wall, making a hole. "Damn it!" He was thrust back on to his bed and continued to struggle controlling whatever was trying to control him.
He chased after Violet as she flew into the shadows and disappeared. "Kanta, lumen, sentar!" He yelled three times and a portal was opened. He ran towards it and it sucked him in, dropping him into an abyss of darkness where he could hear eerie demon whispers. The only source of light was a fire pit down below that barely illuminated enough for him to see the path he was walking on, as corpse hands tried to grab at him from the darkness. The path led up to a huge mansion.

TNOTLDoll
The doll lay in the dirt, it's dress was all dirty. The boys kicked it around like a soccer ball, next to the chair where Hannah had left her sitting. "Stop it!" Hannah yelled, "Give her back!" Tears streamed down her face. She ran over and tried to interfere, but they pushed her back.
"This game isn't for girls." One of her brothers lectured her, he kicked the doll up in the air and when it landed on the ground it's head popped off. Hannah screamed as their mother walked out into the backyard.
"What in the world are you kids doing?" She stood there with her hands on her hips and then noticed the doll, "Oh no, what did you do to your sister's doll?"
"We were just playing with it," They stood there with their hands behind their back as if appearing to be innocent.
"Michael, Daniel, inside! Now!"
"Yes, mom." They both ran inside as Hannah sat on the ground sobbing, with her hands covering her face.
"I'm sorry, honey." Her mom picked up the dismembered doll, "I'll buy you a new one." She carried it over to the waste bin and dropped it in.
"No!" Hannah yelled and ran after her.
"Honey, the doll is broken now. Mommy will buy you a new one, okay?" She then took Hannah by the hand and led her inside. "Oh, your brothers are in big trouble." And they certainly were in more trouble than they were expecting...
