Reign of Darkness (complete)

Aha, nice. (:

Julie
------

I stared at Mari and Raven, who seemed to hate Joseph right now.
"Hey guys." Said Joseph.
"What do you want." Spencer said, trying to keep his voice low.
"I just want to tell you guys, I'm sorry. I was hypnotized." he said.
"Yeah, right." hissed Raven.
"Dude, that was stupid." said Ballow.
"I know." Said Joseph.
"So now what?" asked Spencer.
"I dunno." mumbled Joseph.
Seriously?! C'mon one mistake...that's all he did, everyone gets a second chance...right?
"Oh, c'mon guys." I said.
"Julie. He's lying." said Mari.
I stared at her in shock. How could she think that?
"No." I said shaking my head.
"I believe Joseph." I said, and went to stand next to him.

Aha, trying to get everyone in!
C'mon guys post(:

JD Gary is in a Coma

Also guys I put Gary in to see the future, so say what you want to happen to your people for me, or I will make it up myself, and you will hate it.

Aha, sorry I forgot XD
I'll change my post right now.
Also, congrats on becoming a Greeter(:

-Kelly-

I saw Raven roll her eyes and say, "Great, Julie. Now we have two idiots to worry about."

What's going to happen to Gary?

We were all in a hotel lobby, me and Raven and Joseph and Julie and Maribelle and Ballow and Spencer.

I hope he wakes up. It doesn't matter when.

Cadence came inside to see the heated argument going on between Raven and Julie.

I mean, sometimes... people don't wake up from comas. And that gash on his head... Oh, Gary, I hope you wake up.

Damien

Damien found himself scrambling through the heads of ghosts, asking each if they'd seen one of his new acquaintences. Though most said no, he'd found himself on a path closer to them. And here he stood, a piece of crumpled paper in hand, a hand-held mirror in the other. His breath was ragged, sweat sticking to his forhead, but finally he'd reached them.

Damien burst in, immediately spotting the group in the hotel lobby, quarrelling. Hotels seemed a popular place for these ones ... didn't they learn their lesson? Who cares! Damien thought, running forward. "Guys! Guys!" He called out, stopping before them, catching his breath quickly before speaking the longest dialogue he'd ever done before.

"You wouldn't believe this! I-I found this at a ... well, nevermind. But look! It can show you the future practically!"

Spencer peered into the mirror. There he stood, in his late twenties. Nothing special, nothing different. Except that he'd grown out of his lankiness and now looked ... more like a man. He thrust the mirror into Maribelle's arms. "Here, look!" He said, eager, his hand brushing against her warm skin.

Yay! Damien's back (:

Maribelle

Damien had thrust the mirror into my hands briefly brushing against my arm. I looked it over and the mirror started clouding up, I held it up higher so it could see a profile of who i was. The clouds were clearing and I saw myself holding a toddler's hand, we were walking towards a dark building. Damien was on my other side, and I spotted Joseph's figurine in the dark. He pounced as if he were a cat, he was attacking my baby. Then, the whole thing stopped.

I whipped my head towards Joseph, continuing to glare at him. He's a traitor, he's left our side to join with the evil. Why can Julie not see that, my baby is in danger but she probably won't care.

"I knew it, You traitor." I whispered, my baby agreeing with me. Then something hit me, Damien didn't know I was pregnant.

"I was hypnotized, how many times do i have to tell you!" He said. My baby was screaming, it wanted out.

I slipped away without another word and drove to the hospital. Damien was following after me.

"Where are you going?" He asked, I wanted to tell him. But, I didn't know how he'd react.

"While you were gone shadows attacked me mentally...they implanted a being inside me. Now, it wants out." I said simply still hurrying to the car.

"I'll be back." I said as i shut the door to the car.

The doctors hurried me in to a room, it all happened so fast. They were handing me the baby after a few minutes telling me I almost didn't make it soon enough. They were also surprised that the baby had come so fast.

I nodded at all of them but, really only focusing on my baby. It could already speak but, it knew the dangers of doing that at the moment. It spoke to me in thoughts, it was a boy.

I began to smile and his emotions changed abruptly, as if he were connected to me.

After dealing with papers, I had decided to name him Aiden J. Leslie. I was walking out the door happier than i'd been in a long time.

I hadn't even prepared for him to come, I didn't have a car seat. Then a doctor ran out with one as if I had told him to get it. He handed it to me saying, "We didn't think you were prepared so here Mrs. Leslie." I attached it to the back seat, and gently set him in.

"Mommy, we go back to group?" He asked in a small, adorable voice. The smile widened on my face and I looked back at him. His hazel eyes gleaming at mine, his skin was pale. But, I was assuming that was just a defect the shadows always had.

"Of course hon." I said and with that I drove back. I couldn't feel any pain because the doctors had given me some medicine to help.

I walked back in to the hotel holding my baby close.

------
yes she had her baby super fast. xD

Super-fast?! That was two or three days! Okay, I'm just going to show my surpirse for all of my characters, even though they may not know all/any of this yet: Maribelle ran out of the building, and thirty minutes later, came back with a talking baby boy in a car seat. Dang.



-Raven-

The mirror was thrust into my hands, and I closed my eyes. I was actually scared to look. What was going to happen to me? Sighing, I opened my eyes. I'd have to look sooner or later.

I looked straight at a woman with oily black hair. Her eyes were bloodshot and sunken back into her skull, with huge black circles underlining them. I could make out every bone in her face. She wore black lipstick on almost non-existant lips.

She was a shriveled up, dried out lady in her late twenties with a caved in face. I could make out an undeniable sadness lining her every feature.

She was me.

I wanted to cry. The background was really fuzzy, but I guessed it was a bar.

I was going to turn into a drunkard with an eating disorder.

And I thought I couldn't go any lower.

I shoved the mirror into the nearest persons hand and quickly walked outside. I didn't care if someone was following me, I didn't know if they were. But one thing I had always questioned in my life, I now knew the absolute answer to:

I was destined for misery.

**Pshhh obviously i am bored. >____<
I was sick today and wanted to make Maribelle have her baby xD
Anyways shadow babies grow to be four years old over five days, so she couldn't really keep it in her for the amount of time a normally child would stay. **

Raven shoved the mirror into my hands, and it gently pricked my skin, then she ran inside.
My hands shaking, I slowly looked into the mirror, and saw a happ family.
Emilie's parents, Emilie, me, and my grandpa.
I smiled at the picture, satisified to know everything was going to be okay.
But then everything turned dark, and I saw me and all the others.
We were fighting shadows...but they were bigger...stronger...and wanted to kill more.
I stared at the mirror in shock, as two figures, i couldn't make out their faces, walked towards us.
And tried to kill some of us.
And me?
I got killed.
I stared at the mirror, as it fell out of my hands.
Then the others looked at me.
"What?" Asked Ballow.
"T-the shadows. They are going to come back. Bigger and stronger. Worse." I said.
"And me. All of us. Are going to get killed." I choked out.

[spoiler]Since you all basically know about Spencer and Cadence, you should understand who the 'he' is. This is basically just the prologue to Cadence's end. I may submit it ... but the fact that I'm a horrible poem, and this makes no sense, wouldn't be good. Just read this slightly quickly and it should sound better. I just figured that it would be good with what the upcoming post(s) are about.

Into the Looking Glass

This is the story about a girl,
Who peered into a mirror;
But what she saw,
Couldn’t be clearer.

It wasn’t her face, her eyes, herself,
But what lay beneath that put her through Hell.
With wicked desires, a lost love, insane
This girl felt no one understood her pain.

This is the story about a girl,
Who peered into a mirror;
And what she saw,
Couldn’t be clearer.

Wrenching her heart with jealousy each day,
He slowly drifted from her heart, and away.
He once was a part of her as she was.
But now he is gone, and she is above;
Herself and her body, her spirit is free
This is how it’s supposed to be.

This is the story about a girl,
Who peered into a mirror;
And what she saw,
Couldn’t be clearer.

Crimson desires, she’ll finally be,
Happy as ever, now that she sees
The pain and the suffering she imposes on him,
Now that won’t happen, ever again.

This was the story about a girl,
Who peered into a mirror;
And what she saw,
Couldn’t be clearer.[/spoiler]

Spencer

The mirror was passed from hand-to-hand. Spencer hadn't looked at Raven's in fear that she'd see herself with another man. Spencer picked up the mirror, his hand quivering. He tried to draw Cadence close, but she shied away. And each time she did, her felt himself wince, and his heart tear a little more at the seams.

He slowly closed his eyes to calm his pounding headache, and opening them back up, he looked into the mirror, the misty smoke behind the shimmering glass finally settling. There, stood Spencer, a sombre expression on his face. He held the hands of two children; both strawberry blondes, but one a girl, and one a guy. Twins. Fraternal twins. and beside him was a woman. She was tall, beautiful, and looked very charismatic, and concerned. Her brow was furrowed, her bright green eyes that stood out beneath her vivid red hair and plentiful freckles looked filled with symapthy, and the desire to understand.

Spencer - he suspected it was himself - looked even more sombre. His posture slouched over, his brow already had frown lines. his blonde hair scraggled, and he looked as though he was already getting grays - so early. His cheekbones stood out much too prominent on his face, and his green eyes were dead, no emotion filling them whatsoever. He shoved the mirror away, afraid to look at it, resisting the urge to chuck it across the room and break it. He loved Raven - not some red-headed lady.

He cast a look at her, offering her his hand, rubbing his other one through his hair. "Rae, can we talk a second?" Despite her actual answer, Spencer clutched her hand and pulled her out after him, surprised by how dainty and delicate her hand felt beneath his calloused and strong ones. As he brushed past Cadence, he thought he saw her biting back tears, her hand quivering for something in her pocket.

Cadence

Cadence twirled the mirror around in her grasp, and look into the misty fog that had arisen. She hadn't gotten to see what had happened to Spencer. As he brushed past her, she wanted to pull the small nail file from her pocket and shove it through her throat. Like that would work. Atleast it'd put my mind at rest, Cadence said, aware of how suicidal she felt.

Finally the mirror cleared. At once the mirror dropped from her hands, her whole body shaking, her mouth open in a silent cry of terror. She refused to pick it up, or even look around for Damien. What would he say? And where was Maribelle?

Cadence clutched her arms, shaking, before she finally ran from the room, her sobs echoing in the lobby.

But why would someone feel so emotional over something as miniscule - and inaccurate (or so they thought) - object like a mirror? Simple.

It was blank.

That's all today folks! (Not, I'm still posting)

nice post.
poor candence
Aha, I liked the poem! (:

Maribelle

I finally got my courage and opened the door to the room everyone was in. A couple gasps lined the room and some people were shocked, mouths wide open. I sighed, letting my hair cover my happiness.

"This is Aiden...my baby." I said simply. Aiden looked intrigued, scrunched up his little nose, and put his hand out to the closest person, Cadence. Cadence looked scared and sad, I had come just in time to see Spencer pulling Raven out of the room. She inched a little closer to Aiden and let him wrap his hand around her finger, Aiden laughed.

"H-he's adorable..." She said, sounding like she was fighting a war of tears.

"How did this happen, Mari?" Julie asked, coming closer to Aiden. I took a seat, feeling dizzy standing.

"The shadows implanted it when she was being attacked mentally." Damien's voice stated, he was leaned against a wall. Julie looked at Damien then, back at me. I started to search the minds of everyone, wondering what they thought of him.

Every-thing's going perfectly, as long as the baby sticks to his plan. Joseph thought the only clear thought i could hear, sneering maniacally. Aiden was screaming now, I gave a dark glare to Joseph and walked out of the room.

"Aiden, Honey it's alright." I said, cradling him in my arms. I needed to know if he was good or bad.

Aiden, whose side are you on? I asked in thought. Aiden didn't have to think about it.

Whatever side your on, Momma. We were thought entwined, everything he thought i thought and vice verse.

I snuggled him close to me, and promised to never let any harm come to him.

Man, this is so fun. (:

awwweee...(: <3

-Kelly-

Maribelle had come inside, carrying a baby, and Cadence had run, shaking. I suddenly became terrified of looking. After we, Julie and I, had gaped and gawed at Aiden, the baby boy, I glanced from Ballow to Joseph, the only two who hadn't looked yet, I groaned on the inside. I knelt down and picked up the small mirror in my hands. I peered into the swirling clouds, watching, waiting to see.

In the mirror was a couple holding hands. The woman looked tired, but happy, wearing a pink, flowy dress that reached her knees. She was smiling weakly, like it was all she could do to even grin. A few scars were on her face and nose. The other most noticable thing? She was bald. My mind, not that I asked it to, put together those pieces to come up with a reason: Cancer.

I couldn't think straight, which was really odd for me. If this was what was going to happen to me, as I had guessed this was... No. No way had grandma given me the cancer gene, or whatever.

I glanced at the man to try and get my mind off of myself. He had thick brown hair which reminded me of a mop that someone had cut short. His deep green eyes were filled with a huge mixture of emotions; concern; worry; happiness. I noticed a scar on his cheek, and it hit me.

Gary.

No way.

A smile found it's way across my face. Who cares about disease? This was just so awesome... I handed the mirror to Ballow, who took it with a shrug.

I figured the memory of what I had seen, both good and bad, would stay with me forever. But all I could think about was the good...



*I don't know what to post for Raven, Rei, because this is more of Spencer's moment. If I may, I'll let you post for them:) Haha, please?*

Aha(:
Sorry I'm not posting.
I will later thought. (:
Promise...well like on Friday most likely(:
