Darkness......

Darkness has coiled itself around me.....

Tendrils reaching up and dragging me down, ensnaring me..... Choking me....

Consuming every last essence of my soul, leaving my body nothing but an empty hollow shell, not a single drop of warmth beating inside me.

Darkness.....

My arms reach up and clasp each other, my nails digging into my skin, my eyes wide and blood shot as I stared up into the moonlight.

"Nyx Vega. Ice Sprite of Thoth. Do you promise to uphold your promise to The Frost, dedicating your soul and body for eternity to us, destroying all creatures of Eonbara that walk across Earth, in exchange for your true wings?" A loud voice boomed, a faint silhouette forming in the rays of the moonlight, my nails digging deeper into my arms.

"Yes!" I cry, tears rolling down my cheeks, pain pulsing through my body.

"Then you must swear a blood oath. Pledge your body and blood only to The Frost, dedicating yourself to us for eternity."

An ornate bowl made of black Brandtänium appeared before me, a smoking shadow dagger appearing in my clenched fists.

I take the dagger and hold to to my hand, stepping up to the bowl, determination furrowing my brow.

"I. Nyx Vega. Pledge my flesh, energy, and every last drop of blood to The Brotherhood of The Frost, my body remaining yours for eternity!"

I bring the dagger down and stab it deep into my palm, scarlet blood dripping into the bowl, the moonlight transforming it silver.

The bowl disintegrated into smoke rising back into the air, the shadow dagger along with it, I look back up to the moon, the silhouette had came closer, know I could see its blue eyes and large wings glimmering softly.

"Now scream. Bend the darkness with your voice, giving ur your magic and soul, completely binding you to us....forever."

Now I could fully see its face, it's blue eyes only inches from mine, fear spiking down my spine.

"I BELONG TO THE FROST!" I screech, my scream ringing in my ears.

"Then Welcome Nyx."

His lips lifted up in a smirk his eyes flashing in the moonlight,lifting up a finger and placing it on my eyelid.

"To The Frost."

"AHHHH!" A guttural screech ripped out of my throat, as I collapsed to my knees, pain searing in my hand, the figure disappearing in a swirl of smoke.

The blood from my wound was swirling around in a circle on my palm, burning like icy fire as it made a path around my hand.

"AHHH!" The blood shot up my arm and across my chest, shooting into my eyes, and burning in lines and swirls across my face, and swirling around my naked back, and covering my ears.

"AAAHHH!" I kept on screaming as pain swirled throughout my naked body, tears rolling down my cheeks.

Darkness.....

My ears sprouted straight out the sides of my head, becoming longer and pointing at the ends, and I felt my eyeballs burning with ice fire.

Darkness....

My scream echoed around me, and I felt wings sprout out of my back. The blood still swirling across my skin, and burning paths across me.

Darkness...

I collapsed onto the ground panting and crying. Tears dripping onto the ground below me, my eyelids fluttering softly.

"Welcome To The Frost."

I repeated the words in my mind over and over, as my eyelids slowly slid close, my world becoming nothing but darkness......
