Elika took another step away from the dark lord, her breath catching as she looked around. The forest land around the mansion spread out for miles, connecting with vast open fields. The princess only spotted one road, leading for miles between the trees; muddied and eerie. “Just let me go home.”

The dark lord gripped Elika viciously by the hair, pulling her towards him as he spoke. “You are never going home! You will stay here until I say otherwise.”

The princess pushed against Darkous, attempting to break his grasp on her hair; desperately kicking him in the leg. “Let go!”

The dark lord snarled, tightening his grip on the princess. He launched her towards the double doors of the mansion, her small frame crashing into the black wood. He stormed towards her, watching as the princess attempted to crawl away. She took gasping breaths, trembling as Darkous approached. She knew instantly that she had made a mistake, her fear rising

    Elika groaned slightly, her bones stiff as she began to wake. She pulled the soft blanket tighter around her small frame, attempting to fade back into sleep. Her eyes flickered, slowly adjusting to the dull lighting. The princess sighed deeply, moving to lie on her back in the cage. The metal contraption began to sway as she moved, causing Elika to freeze in fear. She bit her bottom lip, waiting for the cage to slow; eventually halting as she remained still. Her mind wandered as she stared up at the top of the cage, metal bars filling her vision. She planned to escape, only so far; she had no idea how. The princess may manage to get out of the cage, but what then? Where would she go? Nowhere ... Elika had nowhere to go, her knowledge of hell sketchy at best. She sighed again, her hope dwindling. All the princess wanted was to go home, only that wasn’t an option. The dark lord would not allow her to leave, and if she did; he would hunt her down. The consequences of running more

    Darkous repeated his chuckle, slumping into his chair as he spoke. “I will do that soon. Don’t you want to speak with her? You did want to meet her, did you not Dorian?”Dorian turned back towards the princess, tilting his head as he inspected her. “Hello little girl.”Elika leaned back against the cage, refusing to look at the man as he spoke. She slowly placed her head onto the bars, briefly closing her eyes as she remained silent. The princess didn’t feel like speaking with them, her mood low and sorrowful.“Elika ... Aren’t you going to at least say hello to this rather nice man?” Darkous questioned, leaning forward in his chair.The princess sighed, mumbling her response as she continued to look anywhere but where the man stood. “Hello...”Dorian chuckled as he turned his attention back towards the dark lord. “She isn’t a talking person, is she?”“

    The princess followed the dark lord silently after he let her out of the cage; carelessly glancing at the photos on the wall. Each portraying a woman that was profoundly more beautiful than she could have imagined. She realised after a minute of stating that it was her uncles lost love that smiled at her from within the picture frames, the only things in the whole mansion that lay in tact.Darkous suddenly stopped in front of an old oak door, carefully opening it as he flung Elika to the ground; giving her no care. He peeked through the darkness of the room, checking for any intruders. Once he knew it was safe, the dark lord carelessly picked up the princess; her small frame crashing against his shoulder. The princess wailed in pain as her uncle began to descend into the darkness, she gripped onto his shirt; her pulse rising as she became increasingly nervous. Darkous flipped an unseen switch, filling the strange underground room with a red glow as he lifted the princes

    Elika jumped at the sound of the trees deep voice, gasping as she took another step away from her uncle; nature giving her the confidence she needed. “I might ... I have help.”The wind hissed at her response, commanding the trees to be ready. They were all set on aiding the princess, helping her escape from the dark lord’s grasp. She hid her smile, un-wrapping her arms from her stomach; no longer needing the comfort of it.“I can request for every immortal and creature to help me apprehend you; I would suggest that you stay in the mansion.” Darkous warned, taking a step back as he clicked his fingers.“Why won’t you just let me leave?! I will never stop trying to run from you!” She screamed, frustration clear in her tone as the trees ordered her to run; warning her that her window of opportunity was closing quickly.“Because you are my prisoner and I will never let you leave until I see fit. Now get b

    Elika screamed in shock, carelessly dodging away from the man. The wind hissed vilely, throwing the werewolf into the air. She took a step back, tears sliding down her cheeks as the man’s large frame was viciously slammed into the ground; blood oozing from a fresh wound in his leg. She turned, forcing her weak legs to run. The trees around her aided her once more, giving her a direction as she looked around desperately. She ran for miles, her chest tightening as she gasped for breath. The princess knew that the creatures continued to pursue her, cutting her options thin. She pushed her back against a tree, scanning the darkening woods. A figure appeared from behind a tree his demonic yellow eyes savagely landing on Elika as she shook. She placed her head back against the large oak, her fight slowly beginning to dwindle. Dorian took a long stride towards her, laughing as she struggled for breath.“You know I once met a young girl who tried to escape from me; do you

    “Fucking using her abilities. Everyone be ready! Rycho, ram the next one.” Dorian growled, storming towards the next tree.Elika braced herself as the centaur rammed the towering oak, almost knocking her from the branch. She wrapped her legs around the branch as her body twisted, jolting as the half man half horse creature once again slammed into the tree. The towering oak groaned in response, ordering Elika to move faster. She moaned in strain as she pulled herself back onto the branch, stumbling to her feet. The princess reared back, rushing forward as she propelled herself from the tree. The wind caught her as she began to plummet, flinging her into the next tree. Learning her lesson Elika quickly rolled onto her feet after smashing into the branch, rushing across it as she leapt through the air. Her small frame shook with strain as the wind aided her from tree to tree, barely giving the centaur enough time to rear back as she moved to the next. More creatures

    The coming of age festival was something Darkous had been awaiting all his life, the night he turned sixteen. The celebration was a tradition in the family, bringing together all the most powerful immortals into one place. Though the young prince wanted something different, to change how the festival was planned. Darkous wanted the mortals their two, his friends from the mortal school he had attended. Chronos disagreed with this, warning his son against bringing mortals to hell. But the prince ignored his father, focused only on having the love of his life attend his celebration. Tonight the youngest son of the great Chronos will become a man, to take his place among the immortals. The festival dance had started like any other, with each person being announced as they entered the grand hall. Darkous entered the hall alone, waiting for the arrival of his love. The young prince wore the family crest on his black shirt, the head of a white dragon signalling from what immortal clan he w

    Darkous woke in a cold sweat, the claws of the demon tearing into his canopy bed. The psychopathic lord snarled the recurring dream of his past lingering in his thoughts. That night was forever locked within Darkous’ mind, torturing both him and the demon. He slowly rose to a seated position, snapping the demon back into the far reaches of his mind. The psychopathic lord thought once more of the pup, regretting the moment he gave her the opportunity to run. Darkous had a momentary lapse of judgement believing that she wouldn’t run, but; he would be damn sure not to let it happen again.The psychopathic lord rose from what was left of his bed, giving out a deep sigh. He would need to order yet more bedding, perhaps even a new bed as he looked down at the shredded wood. He had been experiencing the recurring dream for years, the nightmare of what happened following him through the centuries. How could he have been so weak and powerless to stop his father? Why did he

    Elika’s eyes snapped open as she bolted upright, her heart racing as she recalled the event of the last day, knowing that she would pay for what she did to Hades, along with aiding in Persephone’s escape. She imagined that the dark Lord would make her suffer for what she had done, but she had seen no other way, she had to help the goddess. She turned her head from side to side, the mattress of a large canopy bed soft beneath her frame as she searched the room she had been assigned when she had first been forced to stay with Hades. Relieved that the guards had placed her there rather than in the dungeons below the mansion. Only, she had not truly meant to harm her uncle so much, it had been as though she was trapped within her own body, a passenger forced to watch as someone else steered you into danger; unable to do anything to prevent it. The young immortal felt different somehow, something inside her twisting and changing, making room for something she had yet to under

    The young immortal princess whimpered, her vision blurring as her mind fought to regain control, her abilities appearing utterly useless against her uncles vast power; proving to be more than she could handle alone. Her muscles wailed in response to the agony, every bone in her body quivering in terror and apprehension of what was to come. She pitied Cerberus as she thought of the three headed dog being treat the same way as she was now, knowing in her heart that the beast would only follow his commands out of necessity, riddled with horror of what would occur if it did not do as its owner ordered. She wondered for a brief moment if she would grow to be the same, blindly following the will of those around her so that she might avoid a consequence that her ID creates.Breathing deeply, she clenched her jaw and closed her eyes, willing herself to be still; to not react to the pain. You have faced enough torment to know that there is always an end to the pain, all you have to do

    The young immortals hand snapped up to cover her cheek as it erupted in pain, her eyes widening in shock as she took another step back, silenced by Darren’s outburst, his tone and mannerisms something she had only ever seen from the others.Michael stepped forward, placing a hand on Darren’s shoulder in order to calm his comrade down, his tone stern and unforgiving. “How did you get out, pup? I am really interested to learn how you got back to this dimension without the help of someone who can summon a portal. So please enlighten me, who helped you escape?”Elika bit her bottom lip, cautiously attempting to think of a lie that would aid her; knowing that she couldn’t tell the truth. No matter how badly they wished for it. “I don’t know, I woke up in the forest and then ... “ She paused, glancing around the throne room in sadness, her chest contracting in worry for her family. “I found my home destroyed and my people

    Elika was deserted, alone in the darkness. Her whole frame trembling as she stood, desperately searching the eerie black room; praying that there would be someone to appear and help her. Someone who could save her from her never ending fate. The fate the creator had so savagely forced upon her. She repeatedly glanced in every direction; paranoid of what she suspected would come to her in the endless blackness, petrified that it would be the creature of her nightmares. The one thing she feared above all else. The thing that always won. Sending her back into the pits of fire where she was deemed to belong. The walls seemed to close in around her, appearing so lively that something might reach out and take a hold of her; dragging her back down into the pits of hell. The immortal princess gasped, her legs quaking in fear and apprehension, now barely able to sustain their own weight against the darkness.The distant sobbing wails of her family assaulted her ears, pushing Eli

    Elika stared down at the note, her mind racing at all that entailed, at what exactly the words suggested. She folded the small paper, placing it into one of the small compartments in her gown, before quickly opening the pack; grateful at what it held. She pulled out a simply crafted hunting knife and a 9mm pistol, carelessly tying the black holder around her ankle with the supply belt and loading the gun. Whatever her saviour believed waited for her, the immortal princess had to be ready; prepared for what she may find beyond the folds of the forest.She connected with her surroundings, allowing the worlds to swarm around her as she always had when she was a young child, the trees smiling as she greeted them, and the wind hissing with joy at her return. Because this was it, Elika had made it home, made it back to the place where she had been raised; the place her family continued to reside in. All she wanted now was see her brothers once more, her mother and her father. She n

    She asked herself, her heart rate intensifying as she pushed herself back up, one again ready to face the unpredictable crowd that rushed around seemingly aimlessly.After a few moments the princess forced herself to walk back into the busy street, instantly forgetting the direction she had come from as she entered the crowd. Biting her lip, the young immortal princess shrugged; randomly deciding to turn left as she accepted that she was in fact lost; not knowing where she would end up in the overwhelmingly large city. She stumbled slightly as she bumped into someone, quickly catching herself before she fell; shaking her head as she moved to regain her full balance. She looked up at the stranger, gasping when she realised who it was; taking a fearful step back as her apprehension of what would come rose.“Hey! Watch where you are...” Joey stopped, looking down at her, his eyes filling with confusion as he realised who it was who had bumped into him. His exp

    Elika stood leant against the windowsill, staring out into the busy streets of hell, her mind racing as she watched people smiling as they walked; carefree as they continued with their day to day lives. She sighed contentedly, happily gazing down at the people her father sort to kill, but why was that his plan? These people didn’t seem evil at all, in fact they seemed quite the opposite. Caring and simple. So why did her father want to kill them all, rid the world of these innocent people? What had they done to him that was so bad? The princess closed her eyes briefly, wishing that the world was different somehow, that all the evil in the universe would just vanish and leave the people alone. Leave her alone. She knew that banishing the nasty and cruel would also mean her father, but the worlds would be better off without people like him.The city was larger than any Elika had ever seen, the building reaching high into the clouds, each one having what the princess

  • A God’s Tale   Where has Darkous gone?

    The unknown realm was layered with the enemy, a kingdom that no one had ever heard of, until now...Deep within a dark forest the psychopathic lord crouched low behind a tree, lying in wait for those who caused this, for the monsters that killed without purpose, without cause. He snarled, pushing himself to remain silent; almost predatory.Darkous had followed the trail that the dead men around his home had left, following it to a strange dimension, the land coated in thick forests and rivers, the lord barely finding any life within the new place. Yet, the demon within him urged him forward, promising that there would be vengeance, that he would kill those responsible for Roberts death. He crouched lower, watching and waiting as one would if they were about to pounce, ready to tear their enemy apart. Someone was close, moving in from all sides, he could sense them. Hear the beat of their heart as he turned his head to the side, the demonic creatur

    “Come on, pup, I’m not waiting around for a limp.”Elika nodded, moving to stand beside Darren as Michael created a portal, limping on her injured leg as it burned in strain. She winced when she stopped, applying more pressure to the ankle than she had meant, worsening the pain.Michael ignored her pain as he turned towards his comrade, his voice once again becoming stern and unforgiving. “She has of yet seen nothing of the city, keep it that way. The portal will take you to your flat.”“Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don’t let her see the city, I get it. Now can we please go?” Darren huffed, his tone appearing uncaring as he glanced towards Michael; slowly beginning to lose his temper.“Yes, you can go, if you lose the attitude, this is serious and she is not just one of your whores. I will come and get her after I have finished training the soldiers.” Her uncles comrade snarled lightly, scowling at the medi
