A World of Darkness (DSMP Horror AU)

XD

I open my eyes and find myself in some type of grand palace. The walls, floors, and ceilings are made out of gold. It sparkles so brightly that I have to squint to see. Large fancy crystal chandeliers hung from the sprawling ceiling high above my head, further adding to the brightness. Majestic royal red drapes the color of fresh roses hung down from large metal hooks attached to the glistening wall. I had never seen a place as luxurious as this with my own eyes. The whole place welcomed me as I slowly took everything in. As I gazed around me at the magnificent palace, I hear someone clear their throat from high above me.

Slightly startled, I glance up and saw a peculiar sight. A thing that stood out from the shiny golden palace. A large figure with a long green vibrant cloak that covered its face stared at me from a shiny golden balcony 2 stories above. The figure had 2 large soft-looking snow-white wings on it's back & two golden rings magically crossing it's covered face. The sight of such a divine being startled me enough, but the strangest part of the being was the multiple hands that seemed to be floating away from it's body.

How did I end up in this place, in front of this otherworldly being? Was this some kind of angel ready to take me away from this place and into whatever afterlife there was? I wasn't that religious, but standing here, in this place of gold in front of this being, I thought that there might be something out there.

The cloaked being grinned down at me before slowly standing up and stretching it's arms and wings. It slowly pulled it's cloak hood up so I could see it's face. Except... it didn't really have one. Instead of a face, was a white mask with 2 letters drawn on it. X and D. XD? Was this some kind of joke? Why would this godly being have a silly emoji on it's mask?

"It's about time you've arrived." A deep booming voice echoed around the golden palace as the godly being spoke to me. "We were getting so bored waiting for you, Tommy."

I flinched at the power of the voice around me. When the echo finally stopped, I blinked nervously up at the divine being.

"How do you know my name?" I asked, trying to keep the shakiness out of my voice.

The being tilted it's head at me, seeming amused.

"Why that's easy. I've simply been keeping an eye on you all this time. I do for all the unfortunate souls who happen to fall down here. Much like your friend, Philza, except I'm much more..." The being paused. "Powerful." It finally said.

This thing had been watching me? Even though Philza has appeared a lot like the other monsters of the world, I think I would have preferred him watching over me rather than this godly-looking being. Philza seemed like he wanted to protect me, while this being seemed full of himself. I eyed the being nervously, unsure of it's intentions.

"What are you talking about?" I asked, confused by what was happening.

"What do you need more clarification on?" The being said, sounding frustrated at my lack of understanding. "Don't you get it? I'm DreamXD, the god of this world." He bellowed loudly.

The ground rattled loudly as his thunderous voice echoed around me. He studied for a moment with his head tilted before disappearing in a blinding flash of white light. Alarmed, I looked around me, searching for any trace of the bright green cloak among the palace. Suddenly, he appears directly in front of me. I cry out and stumble backward in surprise, nearly falling over on the sparkling golden tiled floor. Once I regain my footing, I carefully look up at the god's white mask, black letters written on it's shiny surface.

"I see and know everything. I've watched you, pathetic human. You and your brother. Nobody leaves here. I make sure of it. Why, even if one tiny fallen human left through the portal, it would likely cause the beyond to collapse" DreamXD hisses.
