Completed Light Vs The Darkness part 1

[Kisetukai]

23rd Of Spring

"You are your biggest enemy." This was what the voice said. Kise awoke in total darkness, pitch black, dead silence. He was on the floor, ground or whatever was the lowest level of wherever he was at. He was confused, not scared but confused. He felt cold, dead...Lifeless. His body was motionless, he could feel nothing yet he felt everything. 

"Where..Where am --" His speech was cut short by the immediate gush of blood he coughed up. He couldn't see anything but knew it was his blood. The texture..The smell..The heat. It seemed to rejuvenate him as it trickled down his cheek. Instantly like a flash not even a second after, he rose up. As if being pulled up by some force..It felt as if something strong yet mystical had pulled him up. As he rose up his nerves became fully restored, his heart began to beat and he took in a deep breath as he closed his eyes. 

He began to feel everything truly as he held in that breath. He clenched his fists as his blood began to pump strongly, his heart began to pump louder until he finally grew the strength. He exhaled sharply as he heard a shattering noise, it was no longer pitch black. It was black with a single small crack in the wall, a crack that showed light, a very..Bright mysterious white but nonetheless white. As Kise slowly walked toward the light, he grew a little worried. "What's pass here...Is it for me?" He kept asking himself. "No..No...No!" Kise thought as he punched the wall open. 

He was gasping for air as he walked out with eyes close. But before opening his eyes he felt a huge, radiant warmth welcome him all over his body. "Ah.." He said as he began to slowly breathe and open his eyes. He was utterly shocked by the beauty of what he saw.

 A crystal world...Or glass. Whatever it was it was glossy white and extremely beautiful..But Kise was still very confused, as he turned around and saw a huge black mist behind him. Inside was his mother, smiling gently at him, holding his scythe. He looked at her with a stare of confusion and curiosity. The eye contact was sharp and locking and lasted for a while...Until finally broken by his mother. "My baby..Kise. Come here." She said in a sweet voice, instantly getting to her som as he slowly began to walk towards the black mist. "Mom..I have so much..So many questions." He said as a huge stream of tears ran down both cheeks. "Sshhh..." His mother said trying to comfort her child.

 "I'm sorry I was never their. You deserve so much more..." "Yea mama..I'm sorry. It's just been so hard." Kise whined, now sulking and a complete mess. "Your gone and dad..." "I know baby..Come here." She said to Kise in an alluring and comforting voice. "Just come here." "But mama...I miss you so much. It's just not fair." Kise muttered out. As he stopped directly in front of the miss he stopped crying. "Come just a little closer baby...I will hold you like I used to." Kise wiped his tears while staring down at the ground as he began to slightly chuckle a bit. "What's wrong baby?" His mom said confused. "Your..Not..Mom."

"What?--" His mom said. "Your not mom!" Kise looked up as he yelled into the mist. "Kiseee!!!" The woman yelled now in a deeper voice as it reached out and grabbed his hand. "Come here now! Listen to your mother!" The voice snarled. 

"That's more like it." Kise smirked with a smile as he bolo punched the image of his mother. It instantly shattered into the puddle of darkness much like the mist. "You have chosen to stay in the light." Said the voice. The same voice that warned him he was his own enemy. The mist then shriveled up to a very concentrated point so small it disappeared. As Kise turned around with a confident face, he began to walk away towards a huge spiraling crystal staircase. It wasn't very long till it got to another platform so he decided he'd start there to get some answers. As he began to walk up the stairs he chuckled a bit. "This is a dream right?...What did I eat?" He began to make excuses. 

"Maybe I should stop eating before bed?" "Eh whatever..This dream is totally petched up." He added. "I mean seriously, who puts mom in a dream?!" All these ponderous questions ended up in a head shake in disapproval. "I'm getting to the bottom of this..And when I do. I'm going to kick some ass." He said as he finally finished climbing the stairs and popping his knuckles by tightening his fist. As he reached the top he was amazed by what he saw once more. A whole crystal like glassed floor field. Clean and polished as if it was new every second. 

Untouched and never before walked on. He chuckled, at the thought of such beauty in a dream. This level that he had just ascended to, was just magnificent, words couldn't describe such a sight. But his sightseeing bliss was suddenly interrupted as he heard the voice once more. It had an ominous yet..soft ring to it. It became almost welcoming this time, as Kise wasn't alarmed, continuously walking while listening. "The darkness overwhelms you in this situation..Will you submit?" 

As Kise continued to walk he slowed down his pace as he heard a sad series of moans in despair. "The darkness overwhelms me?" Kise muttered to himself as he came to a halt. An eerie wind had picked up....Breaking the silence. Kise's black cloak began to fly up and flap vigorously. As the mist began to once more fill up the area. The whole floor became pitch black, shrouded in a foggy floor of black. 

"Tch! This petching mist again." Kise said as he clenched his fist. "Ki..Se..." said the mist. "Join us..Save us..Be us." This caused Kise to flinch a bit in disgust, as he stepped back a couple steps. Numerous humanoid forms of the black mist began to form. They had no eyes, no nose, no facial features except a mouth. A mouth that screamed a thousand screams and screeches. They wailed and whined as if being constantly burned by the flames of ivak without the relief of death after. Kise had smiled a bit, the darkness seemed to be apparent now. But overwhelming him...Was not an option. "Do you still choose to fight the darkness? It feels so good to give in and become what you are." Said the voice again in it's soft alluring voice.

 "Just accept and embrace it." "Your right.." Said Kise as he began to tighten up his gloves. "It does feel good. But that's not my type of thing." "What's your choice?" Said the voice in a final and intent tone. "Why don't I just show you?" Kise replied as he slowly walked up to the first humanoid figure. He began to crouch down to show his allegiance to the darkness. "Ah..Good. Very good. You have chosen to--" The voice was interrupted as Kise sprang up and quickly uppercutted the humanoid figure. Shattering it in one blow, he stood up and put up his boxing set. "Level one technique..Lightnings Fury." 

He began to quickly crouch and lower his body as he began to sway from side to side with his fist still up. Slowly walking towards the other humanoid forms. There was hundreds, no, thousands. And these forms, from an overhead third person view, had pretty much surrounded him. "Ok. Let's go!" He yelled as he charged into a pile. Quickly adding up the body count by instantly destroying the masses. His vision became blurry and his fighting style was more based on feel of the area around him. 

His spree of Punches were soon stopped as he felt his arm grabbed from behind. He was shocked by the feeling of the hand. It felt cold, dead..creepy if anything. He quickly turned around and twisted his arm so the beast could release him. Then he grabbed it's right arm with his left. Pulling the humanoid into him he crushed it with a final straight. "Don't touch me!" Kise said in a rage as he began to gasp for air. The hand felt like it drained him of his energy..Or maybe he just imagined it? Could one imagine in a dream? He could no longer debate as a humanoid form jumped onto his back.

 Enraged even more, he grabbed the beast by the wrist and slung it into the crowd of mist people. As they soon all toppled over (in one direction) he noticed another series of crystal stairs he quickly began to run towards it. Limping almost, he barely made it. Resting on the stairs in between the next and the last platform, he noticed the humanoid figures had vanished and could no longer harm him. A huge sigh of relief came as he laid back on the stairs...relaxing his muscles. 

This isn't a dream anymore is it? This was the thought that continuously ate at and rotted his brain. He decided to just suck it up and get it over with, for he would make no progress just sitting there.

Kise then got up and walked to the next platform, after finally getting up past the final step, he looked up. Instantly his nose began to bleed as he entered a small paradise of girls. As he walked forward he shook his face to try and stop the bleeding, but a flock of women soon came to confront him. Or comfort him?...The first girl came to him in no clothing, well they all weren't wearing clothing, but she was the first that approached him. 

As he soon felt himself being swarmed, they laid him down and told him to rest. All of the girls soon began lay down on and near him..very closely. The first girl that had helped him sat atop of him and began to wipe his blood with a snow white cloth. "Your bleeding badly...Are you injured?" The girl said so softly you could bare hear her, as she wiped. "Is something causing you stress? "Yeah...This dream. Just keeps getting wilder." Kise muttered out in a soft voice. "Shh.." Said another girl as she whispered into Kise's ear. 

"Your...Home...Is here...Now." The girl added, as she seemed to speak through a series of kisses to his neck. 

The girls then propped him up on what Kise described was a cloud pillow. As he sat up on his legs he felt the nice warm sensation as he turned his head a bit, noticing a new girl massaging his shoulders. He had his legs spread a bit with his left extended but his right foot was firmly planted on the floor. He quickly noticed the girl who was wiping his face had chose to sat in the middle of his legs and rest her head on his knee. She stared deeply into his eyes, with a small..cute smile. "Why are you guys all...Naked?!" Kise said trying to look away. "Naked?" The girl replied. "Well I have to go.." Kise claimed as he tried to get up. "No..We want you to stay." Said the mass of girls together. "No.." Kise weakly replied as he was pulled down back to laying position. "You need to give in..." "You must give in to pleasure..Lust is natural. Greed is smart." 

"Were have I heard this?" Kise said as he closed his eyes. "Give into the pleasure sounds like...Give into the darkness!" He opened his eyes to find himself surrounded and being held down by the cold hands of the black humanoid forms. "The mist!" Kise shouted out loud as he tried to get up. He soon found himself pinned down like an infant, as gravity was multiplied. 

The hands continuously pushed and pulled him to the dark pits of the mist, his efforts and resistance had been proven futile as he made no progression. He was being swallowed by the dark mist and there was nothing to grab, nothing to procrastinate, nothing to do except give in. He was quickly sunken into the hole after a short series negotiations. "No..Wait...-- Silence.

He didn't know where he was yet somehow he already knew where he was. Darkness. His heart cold, stopped, and if anything...inexistent. One could say that he was dead..But refused to go down. But where he was, was not really showing it. He truly had retrogressed, as he found himself laying in the darkness once more. Weak..empty, and overall pathetic. "Why am I here?" Kise began to do the inevitable pondering. "Is this it?.." It was all over..Back into the darkness as he felt himself slipping. He lost consciousness.."One with the darkness huh?" He thought to himself as he faded into the darkness. 

Kise then woke up in a cold sweat, gasping heavily. He sighed as it was all over or at least as he thought. He was a little creeped out as he could definitely hear K's slightly psychotic laughter in the back of his head. He slowly crawled out of bed, for soon he would have to go patrol the city with his patron. He grabbed his armor as he looked at a disoriented reflection of his face. "K..Please." He said with a soft hopeful voice. He then proceeded to get dressed for his day. 

To be continued.
