CHAPTER 8 - The Enemy
"Luke Light?" Replied Connor, looking just as confused as he was 45 minutes ago, he turned to the others and they just had a look of anguish on their faces, but they didn't get involved one bit, they thought it would be better for Connor to learn about him through experience, so that's what they were doing, that's how dark they had to be.
"Yes, Luke Light, why is this so hard for you to understand?!.." Luke had a furious expression on his face, well, what was left of it. He had a grey mask on that covered half of his face, but the reason was unknown, well, only to Connor, the others clearly knew why he had the mask. He spoke again "..well, I don't know why I'm complaining, you look like a dropout who was at the bottom of the league and the whole reason you dropped out is to help your pathetic mother and the aggressive amounts of bullying that almost led you directly to suicide.. Am I right?" He looked around at the boy to catch a glimpse of his face at the possibly true assumption that he just made about Connors life, but was met by a boy with a furious expression and a glowing purple aura around him, especially his wrists.
"Say that one more time, I dare you!" Connor face was white with rage, well, whiter than it already was and he took a step closer to them and with half a face "Come on! Let's see if your balls are big enough to repeat what the fuck you just said!" as he said this, his wrists glowed a bit more and he gave a look of sheer cold rage to look, he was ready to kill the bastard. he then spoke
"I said.." he pulled out a staff made from pure light and was ready to attack "..well, I don't know why I'm complaining, you look like a dropout who was at the bottom of the league and the whole reason you dropped out is to help your pathetic mother and the aggressive amounts of bullying that almost led you directly to suicide.. Am I right?" He then braced himself for impact and Connors face practically caught fire and his purple aura got brighter. The boy looked like he was ready to attack, but something happened that only The Dark Ones could predict..
CHAPTER 9 - The First of Many
Connor felt as if he couldn't move so went in for a punch from the distance he was at, the team somehow predicted what would happen and Connors hand detached from his wrist and went straight for Luke, that wasn't the only weird thing about the whole ordeal, his hand was connected to the rest of his arms with chains made from pure darkness. The fist made a beeline straight for Lukes' face and made direct contact with the nose, breaking it instantly. Connor then retracted the fist and stared at his hand with immense confusion, but then a voice interrupted his thoughts
"Finally Connor! Now we're gettin' somewhere!.." It was Shane, he seemed to be pleased with what just happened and was encouraging the fight.. "..Beat 'is 'bad inward dick'ead!" ..maybe a bit too much.but alas, he clapped along to the fact that his enemy just got his nose broken. but Conner was just discovering his power and lunged both of his open ands towards Luke and grabbed his staff, breaking it in two and throwing the pieces aside, they then made their way directly to Luke, wrapping him up in chains with the fists ending up at the face, beating Luke black and blue before unwrapping him, retracting the chains and throwing them towards him for the final blow, the uppercut was brutal and sent him straight through the roof.
The team looked on in amazement and smiled warmly at the new member of The Dark Ones, they cheered at his victory, but the celebrations didn't last long, Connor fell to the floor from exhaustion and he had completely passed out. He was completely motionless, everything had stopped glowing apart from the top of his right wrist, sound familiar?
"Well, its official.." stated Ray, quietly.
"..He's one of us" continued Shane with the same volume.
