CHAPTER 16:
MESSAGE RECEIVED
SONG FOR CHAPTER:
SONG CRY BY AUGUST ALSINA

"What do you mean you seen the darkness!?" The Lord yelled at the five teens who flinched at his sudden loud tone. They even took a few steps back, while their parents took a few steps forward in caution.

"Lord, you out of everyone should have known the darkness was going to come after the boys sooner or later. They just chose sooner than later" Daniel's mother stepped up and placing a hand on her son's shoulder, bringing him into a light side hug.

"And I get that!" The older man boomed, his voice echoing. Practically everyone in the strange room jumped with fear. "I just need to figure out a way to slow them down. The darkness is coming a lot faster then I thought, and they're just not ready. I'm not ready" he spoke calmer now and beginning to pace in his one spot.

Daniel stepped away from his mom and walked up to the older man. He held his hand out. The Lord stopped his minor freak out to look at the brunette. Everyone stopped what they were doing to see what Daniel was up to. The teenage boy opened his hand to show his palm, along with a singular circle engraved in his skin. Closing his eyes, the circle began to glow until a yellow ball formed hovering over the brunette's hand. The Lord looked at the ball knowing that it was a message. He used to send them out all time, but when realizing that it was dangerous, he stopped. The older man watched the ball, noticing a cloaked stranger walk up to it and begin talking.

"Nice to see you again,Lord" the stranger said, his voice deep and low. The boys remembered him as the darkness and even slightly shivered at seeing him again. The Lord just glanced at the projection of the still undetectable person. "I met your newest circle. Glad you found what you could. But just know I'm a lot stronger then you think. A bunch of problematic teenagers aren't going to be able to stop me. Especially now that I'm coming quicker. You don't have time to make those losers into warriors."

"Losers? If you may know I was voted class clown. Better yet, most likely to become a meme" Corbyn sassed. Zach rolled his eyes, Jonah scoffed and Jack crossed his arms with a smirk. His mother simply had to shush him.

The Lord didn't care that Corbyn put his two sense in though. He didn't care what the darkness was saying. He was actually observing everything that was being presented to him. But as Daniel whimpered and casually cringed, the Lord knew that this message had to be stopped. This is what he meant by dangerous. If the message being sent was too much, the carrier could be seriously damaged. He made that mistake once; and he surely wasn't going to make it again. So taking one last glance at the mysterious male, the Lord placed his hand on top of Daniel's. It closed the yellow ball, making the teenage brunette drop his head down, his eyes still closed. The older man drew the circle that was etched onto Daniel's skin, before muttering something. And like magic the circle was lifted from Daniel's palm. It was floating in the air glowing. The Lord observed it, knowing he sensed that type of magic before. And not just because it belonged to the darkness. He felt a strong connection with it.
