Into the darkness

The uprising

After a few weeks have gone by after the video of me turning into Abyss, the city was in chaos. Riots in the streets, people getting shot, stabbed and ran over. Not to mention the darkness is still at large. Whole restaurants of people dead, even a police station, now that was fun. After I killed all 23 cops in that station that's when the city really went down hill.

I was sitting in my hotel room watching the news, they were talking about the riots and the recent insane asylum breakout. Apparently during the first few riots of the city, the patients attacked the guards and got a hold of his keys and escaped, killing two nurses and one other patient. The patients that escaped during the riots were two harmless suicide watchers and one deranged guy that thinks birds are spies but there was one more that escaped that caught my attention though.

He's a psychopathic Schizophrenic that's killed 12 people before getting caught and thrown into the insane asylum. During his interview he was asked why he did it and all he did was laugh and said because I was bored. 'He's probably already killed a few people after his escape' I thought to myself. The news was going on about the death toll, and what these riots are going to mean for the city. The curfew never worked and now theirs talk about city wide shutdown but that hasn't been confirmed.

"Hey Abyss can I ask you something?" 'What is it?' He said in my head. "Why did you choose me exactly?" 'I saw you loved the dark, I saw that you had an evil inside you that you didn't know.' "Well I'm glad that you did choose me because I don't know where I'd be without you." 'Well I'm glad you love your new life, now let's stop this sentimental bullshit, it's making me sick.' I laughed and left the hotel to see what the streets looked like now.

To no surprise, there was garbage everywhere, people screaming in the distance, stores broken into and people fighting. I was walking for a while till I came across a car that was smashed into the back of another one. I walked up to the car and saw a guy in the driver seat with his head on the wheel, I could tell that he was dead. 'I wonder if he went to heaven or hell' I thought to myself. I kept walking, and eventually, I got tired of it, so, I turned into the black mist and flew up into the sky to get a better look at the city.

I could see fires across the city, police sirens in the distance, and someone being killed in front of a gas station. I chuckled and flew around for a bit, feeling the brisk cold, the air flowing right through me. This is great, I can do what I want, go wherever I want and no one can stop me. It's crazy to think about how much has happened since the night I killed my father. I finally feel completed, Not because of this new life I've been given but because no one can ever hurt me again.

I was perched up on a tall skyscraper watching the chaos and carnage down below me. Gangs having gun fights in the streets, people that just wanted to get to home running for their life from hood rats and scumbags. I could hear a motorcycle in the distance, I looked and saw him racing down the middle of the street towards a group of back alley scum. The group of guys had started to throw stuff at the rider, till eventually, he crashed. The guys ran over and started kicking, punching and beating him with a bat, all laughing as they did it.

They flipped him over, and I could tell they were searching his pockets. Even from a great distance I sensed that the biker was dead. After a few minutes they finally stopped searching his pockets, and the bags he had on his bike and started to walk away. I was about to fly off to the hotel and rest, so, I can see what the news have to say about tonight's riots, but I started to sense something. Something I've never felt before but it was strong, cold, and dark. 'Well well, I never thought you'd get to see this' Abyss said to me.

"What is it? I've never felt this before." I said confused. 'Someone is turning into a demon after dying' he told me, sounding full of excitement. I looked around at the city, trying to find where it was coming from till I could feel it close to me. As if I was standing on top of it, I looked down and saw where it was coming from. "Well those guys are about to be in trouble" I said, as I saw the bikers soul turning black. "Wait, I know that guy, he's the one that was at the park that night with the weird goggles" I said out loud, I decided to fly a little closer to get a better look at what was coming.

'Well this biker is about to crush those guys, I have to tell you, you let live a powerful demon' Abyss chuckled. I couldn't believe my eyes with what I was seeing. His body started twitching, the ring he had on his left finger started forming into gears all the way up to the finger tip. The tears that dried up on his face started to turn to black all the way up to his eyes and his lips becoming black. He sat up and the guys that killed him noticed it.

"What the hell" The scum bag said. "I thought we killed him" his buddy choked. "Theirs something different about him" their leader said cautiously. I was hovering over the group, looking at the newly formed demon that once was a normal looking biker. He then got up, and put his spiked goggles on and then went straight for their leader. He cut his face with the tip of his ring, blood running down the leaders cheek, he grabbed the bat and charged at the demon.

The demon then ducked as the leader tried swinging at his head. The demon then cut him a few more times, and then grabbed the leader by the throat. "Looks like your heart is beating faster than normal, could it be fear or adrenaline?" Said the demon. The leader tried removing the hand that was tightly gripped around his throat but didn't have the strength to. "You see, the heart is so wonderful it's full of love, wonder and passion, but it's also full of heartbreak and pain" the demon continued as he ripped the leaders' heart right out of his chest with his left hand. He then let go, and let the guy drop to the ground and kept staring at the heart. "Love is a lie, love is just an illusion and hearts are too soft, there should instead be a void there instead, so then nothing can affect it" he said as he gripped the heart tighter, and it started to decay.

The other members of the group was standing there horrified and unable to move. The demon walked over to his bike that had crashed into the wall and started making something. One member of the group started to run and the demon quickly threw a gear at him, going right through the back of the members head and out the front. The demon then threw an oddly shaped object at the remaining members, it looked kinda like a grenade, but it was made from parts of the bike.

The object hit the ground right in front of the members and it exploded in flames, turning them into charcoal ash. I was about to make my move and go over to the demon and see if he's an ally or an enemy, till a bright light suddenly shined in my face. It was the news station helicopter, I could hear the reporter in the chopper talking, saying they have found the black cloud. 'Black cloud, what a terrible name' I thought to myself. I could see that the door to the helicopter was open, so, I decided to make myself bigger, showing a silhouette of a body blending in and out of the darkness of the night sky.

"Listen to me!" I roared. "My name is Abyss and this is my city now, I am darkness. No where you run, no where you hide, will you be safe. I. Am. The. Demon of darkness." I yelled in a demonic voice. Right after that I rushed at the helicopter and swallowed it in darkness and destroyed the rotors, so, it fell to the city streets. I looked at the helicopter that was up in flames, no signs of life and looked at the street were the demon was born and noticed he was already gone. "Now, time to go find the new recruit" I chuckled.
