"Mark!....I'm sorry."

your eyes fall shut, you become lightheaded, and disconnected

you begin to.......laugh

dark watches you turn to insanity as the air leaves your body

your small giggles however gradually turn a maniacal, painfully discomforting, laughter, that would drive a mad man to his grave

he watches you and feels you tremble, but as he begins to look around, he notices the still full glass of water, once on the coffee table, vibrate onto the floor. A painful cracking twitches in his right ear, he keeps his fist tight around your neck, but watches puzzeled as the first bulb implodes. More cracking and the second one blows out into a million tiny pieces of glass. Then a third explodes, fourth, fifth in a row around the room until abandoned in a silent, empty, darkness, that can only be seen by the most primal creatures

an unknown surviving light luminates part of the room, to an ominous dim glow

you've disappeared and Dark groans a low, alerted growl. Like a lion on the prowl

he scavenges for you, in the faint light supplied to him. A light giggle echo's through the room. Like lost in a nightmare, he wanders.

"All powerful?" Giggles through the room

"Stronger" the words echo

"Smarter" the words more aggressively echo, over lapping the first echoed word

"More cunning" the words bounces through the walls

The laughter continues and Dark wanders in circles

"Well, this is interesting, do I smell a fellow game player?" He wonders

the light brightens a bit

You're standing in a corner, head tilt

"She doesn't control me!" You say quietly

Dark turns, trying not to show his strife. You melt into a black puddle. Instantly gone.

You appear behind him

In a smoother, more stable and manipulating voice you whisper in his ear "I don't control her"

Dark spins around once again grabbing you by the throat, but you fade away into a black cloud, of mischievous laughter

determined and frustrated he chases you in a darkened smog

Clouds dance and battle and you set yourself aflame, throwing him off guard. He crashes to the ground and you pin him down.

"Its quite easy to explain, Its a duel ownership"

You lean close enough to feel the heat radiating off him "I'm strong but you'll learn the other half is stronger."

you get off and merge into the blackness; he stands, slightly frazzeld
