Whispers of Darkness: Shadows of Fear
So what if they perish, it is not your fault, it is theirs. They got in the way of true power.
They are my friends, they are my allies. They can't perish.
Why not? Mere casualties for the greater good. Now they've placed themselves in harm's way just to stop you from achieving greatness.
Stop it! Just stop it. You've had your fun now save them.
You and your conscience. Always ruining a fun time, but the titan's essence is mine when this is over.===
Voices. Again with the voices.
The internal conflict was evident as everything happened. Yuri's form oozed black miasma. Things had gotten out of hand. The mindless pageless minions were about to remove their leader from existence when a new threat emerged. Of course, there was another obstacle, things were never this easy for anyone in life. The new threat revealed itself as a large titan pageless standing at a spectacular 16 feet high. Yuri's eyes had lifted to catch a glimpse of the creature's head before its massive fist crushed the pageless under his control. It was odd that a smirk formed on Yuri's face as he watched it happen. He didn't move an inch as the fist hammered away, removing any threat towards the Pageless Leader. Lightning streaked across the bosom of the clouds and thunder roared mightily. The flash of light from the lightning illuminated the construction site and revealed the monster's fist as it raised once more. Yuri's attention darted to Robin who was in the path of the great fist. To make matters worse, Boundless had entered the fray to protect the humans he controlled. The monster's strength was remarkable.
"
Such power," Yuri muttered the smirk still present on his flawless face.
As the black butterflies were destroyed, the dark essence flowed into the black crystals that hung from the staff still planted in the ground. Yuri's bleeding hand hovered over the staff. His eyes landed on Boundless as she yelled for him to open his eyes. His eyes were open, yet he was still blind to the chaos he was causing. As the titan's fist came crashing down, there was no mistaking the darkness that poured into the area like a thick fog. The crystals vibrated, creating a harmonious sound that filled the air. Drop after drop of Yuri's blood fed the staff as black skeletal wings sprouted from the ground and surrounded Robin and Boundless just as the great fist smashed into the barrier, the dark energy absorbing into the sinister wings. The resulting shockwave sent dust and debris in all directions, but the humans were safe.
As the dust cleared, Yuri was on one knee defiant against the titan. His eyes locked with the beast's and his hand gripped the staff. His nose bled as he lifted slowly off the ground his vision blurry.
He stopped when he was face to face with the titan.
Bring it to its knees. Destroy it. Show them true darkness. DESTROY THEM!The voices in his head would not stop. They demanded as if Yuri were a puppet of their own.
"
BOW TO ME!" Yuri said.
Black butterflies fluttered around him as thunder filled the sky with noise. He twirled the staff and burst into a swarm of butterflies. He began to spin, forming into a drill set to pierce through the titan like a cannonball through a wall.
