Chapter 6: When Darkness turns to Light, it ends tonight! Heading through the Portal O' Hell wasn't fun the second time, either. I had to beg Drakkoniss to even get near it, let alone go through it. When we finally got through it, I told Drakkoniss about who I was in a hushed, urgent voice so we could defeat Ancient Darkness right away. Overcast sighed. He had some stupid prophecy to fulfill, and he needed to kill some annoying Darkling named Ancient Darkness, who was apparently one of the last beings of the type of darkness, Ancient darkness. Going through the Asduggy portal, he landed softly inside the Shadow dimension. Tip-toeing into the building Ancient Darkness was hiding in, I felt my light powers growing rapidly. Of course I felt my darkness powers growing as well, but darkness corrupted, so it was too risky to dabble with. But right as I was about to break a window, another darkness being landed right in front of me. Crying out in surprise, I shot the darkling, hoping he wasn't going to trigger some alarm that would let Ancient Darkness I was there. My gun's rays went straight through him, not damaging him, though. “What are you doing!? I gotta kill Ancient Darkness, and I won't let some freak mortal get in my way!” I sighed. Of course. Everyone thought I was a mortal. I told him, “Okay, I'm trying to defeat Ancient Darkness, too. I'm Velmur, and I'm the Great God of Peace.” He sighed in frustration. “Fine. I'm Overcast. I'll help you defeat Ancient Darkness, but you must know one thing.” “What?” “He can't be injured by any element other than darkness itself. So if you don't have darkness powers, I'd suggest running away.” Drakkoniss, nearby, scowled. Of course with his reality bending powers he could conjure up a way to defeat Ancient Darkness. I really didn't want to use my old darkness powers, but I had to. “Let's go.” I said half-heartedly. Drakkoniss took off a window, using his ax as a screwdriver. After that, we all jumped inside Ancient Darkness's lab, squinting in the darkness to figure out where he was. Oh yeah, I never did tell you about how I got darkness powers, did I? Well, it has to do with my past. Velmur didn't always believe in Peace. His father, the great and noble Dragonlord, had, for awhile anyway. With the clan, The Angel StiX, he had the highest ranks going through AQW time in Peace. Then, he slipped, becoming evil and going to the Shadowscythe. Knowing the great Gravelyn, he had a child with her, but sadly their marriage didn't last long. The baby went with Gravelyn, and Guinea, who was always mistaken for his dragon's name, Velmur, moved out to once again become a hero. Months later, Guinea found a baby at his doorstep. Picking it up, he found a note. ~To Guinea~ Guinea, I don't have much time. There is a great war going on, between us and Chaos. I don't know if I'll live. I had to send our child, Velmur, to you. Here he is. He has great darkness and shadow powers, guard him well. Love, Gravelyn~~ Guinea, tears falling from his eyes, picked up the baby. He was a cute one, blond hair and blue eyes, like his father. Soon it would turn to black eyes and hair, sadly. A form of darkness radiated out of him, worrying Guinea. But, Guinea raised Velmur anyway, watching him grow and change from a cute boy to a creepy ten-year-old. While out training, Velmur wanted to show Guinea one of his many tricks. "Hey dad! WATCH!" Velmur cried, creating a ball of darkness in front of him. Just then, a Clown popped out. Laughing, he pushed Velmur in, while Guinea screamed, "NOOOO!! MY SON!" Then the portal disappeared. Velmur was gone. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Velmur landed, he felt dizzy. He looked down, to see he had no feet, just pointed legs. He sighed, brushing his messy black hair back. That annoying Clown was no where to be seen, and Velmur was so angry he could melt titanium. And from then on, Velmur raised himself, eventually going to school. At the age of thirteen, he ran into a strange character. The Dealer. He knew of Velmur's deadly grandfather, Sepulchure, and was willing to give Velmur a power to enhance his great dark powers. A doom weapon. But instead of giving him powers, it took them away. Sad, angry, Velmur did the one thing he could do. Got at the top on his class. But later, he got killed by Ancient Darkness, a villain who invaded his school and shot him in the head. In the void, the great god of Water, Thanthoses, contacted him, giving him a chance at bringing light to the world. Now, Velmur's the Minor god of Peace, on his way to being a real, full-fledged god. So that's how I ORIGINALLY got my dark powers. Sadly they were gone, due to the Dealer. But when Thanthoses gave me the powers of a God, my dark powers were restored. I just prefer not to use them, because they're so deadly, and their main reason is to corrupt. But I would have to use them to defeat Ancient Darkness. At least I could use both light and dark to create a strong shield, but there are a few elements that could defeat this shield. But Ancient Darkness wouldn't be able to. At least I didn't think so. I knew that the Clown wasn't defeated, as long as his thought remained in my head, he was still alive. But he'd have to wait. It was time to get this show on the road. Switching my mental switch from darkness to light, I suddenly felt really cold and... hollow. It felt very strange, as if I were dying, which, I must remind you, I DID. Sadly, since Ancient Darkness was not human, I couldn't just kill him with my true form. So, creeping slowly up to the dark form that was Ancient Darkness, I turned myself into a dark being, ready to strike him in the chest. Overcast, readying his powers, was to my left, as ready as I was. Drakkoniss to my right was creating darkness with his reality bending powers. As ready as ever. We jumped at him, encasing him in a world o' pain. Except... that wasn't him. It was a dummy. Dumbstruck, I watched as the REAL Ancient Darkness crept out from behind a curtain, a wicked red tinged sword appearing clutched in his finger tips. Knowing most of us were probably doomed, I tried to tell the others to retreat. But they wouldn't. They actually charged straight at him, surprising him. Knowing I might as well die with them, I aimed a dark blast at him. Hitting him square in the chest, I knocked him over for long enough to create a shield of dark and light, Ying and Yang. I was protected for the rest of the fight. Overcast used a similar blade as Ancient Darkness, and Drakkoniss used a darkness-tipped ax as his weapon. All this wasn't too much for Ancient Darkness, though. Shooting Drakkoniss in the head with a doomafied bullet, I watched as he fell to the ground, knocked out. It was hard to kill Drakkoniss seeing as he could bend reality with most likely the slightest of ease, but taking him down for a second wasn't TOO hard. Drakkoniss, popping back up, slammed a ball of darkness into Ancient Darkness's neck. Screaming angrily, he grabbed Drakkoniss and threw him into the portal back to Lore, then focused on Overcast. Overcast, doing all he could to live, focused on Ancient Darkness. Boiling mad, he thrust his sword into where Ancient Darkness's heart should have been. Which was enough... to kill him. I didn't think he was dead, but there I didn't mention it. Cheering wildly, Overcast smiled. Taking off my shield to prevent it from depleting my powers, I went over to congratulate him. But I never got but a foot in front of him when he said, “Now, it's my turn to murder. Starting... with YOU!” He cried, throwing the sword at me. Trying to avoid it, I attempted to grab it. But I wasn't fast enough. It had pierced... My neck.
