The cave……I’m in the cave again, even in the darkness I can tell. Oyuki looked around but was not able to see anything, other than the pitch blackness of the environment. Suddenly she felt hands on her shoulder. Quickly she spun around to see who it was but to her surprise no one was there. It’s you isn’t it? What do you want with me and my friends? Why have you called to me in my dreams? After a long period of silence Oyuki finally screamed out in frustration WHAT DO YOU WANT?? DAMN IT ANSWER ME! WHERE ARE YOU!? Oyuki looked around in the darkness, tears in her eyes. Please, answer me, I beg you. Oyuki stood silent in the darkness until she felt those same hands touch her shoulder again. She chose not to turn around, for fear that the thing would disappear again. Oyuki, you are the only one that can set me free. You are the only one that can save us all. Oyuki closed her eyes and let that comforting feeling surround her again. Who are you? She asked. What do you want with me? She slowly began to turn around as the being said all will be explained in time. You must be patient and have faith that everything will turn out in good favor. Oyuki turned around and saw a human man half hidden in the shadows. So you’re a human, like us. He said nothing, just stood half cloaked in the darkness looking at her. She could not tell what he was thinking. What is your name? Oyuki asked. Can you give me at least that much? The figure stood unmoved as it spoke. My name is part of an ancient Language not spoken in centuries. Oyuki rolled her eyes in the darkness. Bummer, She thought, I guess that means you have to remain nameless huh? The figure looked at her and said, for the moment, yes.

Do not worry, Oyuki, all will be… Oyuki spoke up. Explained in time, I know. She thought she could detect a slight smile on his face. Now, he said, you are learning. Oyuki looked at him. What is threatening all of us? What is this evil you are talking about? The man finally shifted in the darkness, making Oyuki afraid of what the answer would be. It is evil personified, it knows only hate, it wants only death and destruction. It will not stop until it has killed everything in site. It will never rest until it has slaughtered all of mankind, including you and your friends. And that is not the scary thing, young one. The scary part is its power is far beyond anything you have ever encountered. It will not be an easy task to defeat it but with my help, humanity has a chance of making it through this. I have fought this thing for thousands of centuries. I know of it well. I may be the only one that can defeat it……

How can something human be so evil? Oyuki asked. It is not human, child. It is an insanely mad creature that wants only destruction. The figure raised his hand in the air and pointed behind Oyuki. IT COMES FOR US ALL! Oyuki turned around and was horrified to see a pair of glowing red eyes in the darkness. As she stood there, completely petrified, the evil reached out from the darkness with long slimy hands ready to steal the souls of anyone it could find. Oyuki tried to scream, but to her horror no sound came out of her mouth but a small squeak. No, stay back! She thought to it. Get away from me! She turned around hoping the figure would be there to save her from this horror but to her despair he was gone, leaving her alone with the evil. Oyuki turned around and just as the thing got its hands around her throat she was finally able to scream…..
