Chapter 2: The Bargain
Trying to figure out who the booming voice belonged to, our tempted protagonist couldnt see a person anywhere in the building where he was trapped in. The only explanation could be that the voice was coming from an audio enhancement module, which was a high tech speaker that could broadcast any sounds perfectly, with no static or other blemishes in audio.
"Show yourself, you coward!" Mark screamed, as he tried to struggle his way out of his confinements. He was currently tied, both hands and feet, to a metal chair, which was bolted in to the concrete floor below him. Mark realized with great reluctance that he was truly trapped, that no matter the amount of struggling he did he would never break loose of his shackles.
Suddenly, he hears a loud squeaking noise, coming from behind him. This lead Mark in to struggling to look behind him, but to his great horror what he saw right then would forever haunt his dreams for as long as he may live.
Oozing out from a dark corner, a giant black blob-like monster seemed to be slowly making it's way towards Mark, when it suddenly shot straight up into the air like a bullet, seeping through the cracks in the ceiling and disappearing completely within seconds.
"What the hell was that creature?!" Mark thought, panicking. There was no such thing as monsters, so why would there be a blob-like monster here?! Where exactly am I?!"
"Ha Ha Ha Ha! I see you noticed my pet Alpha! As long as I tell it not to attack you, you'll be perfectly safe, but if not, then you and your bones will all be dissolved in an instant, leaving no trace behind. If I were you, I would do exactly as I instruct, or else you wont stand a chance of leaving here alive."
" I know you are most likely thinking that you're having a nightmare, and that you'll wake up soon, but, alas, this is the real world behind the shadows. And, now that you are a part of this, you'll have no choice but to follow my orders if you dont want the demons to hunt you down and eliminate you."
"What do you want?! Who are you?! Where are you?!" Mark cried out, frantically searching for the source of the voice. "Why did you bring me here?! Was that creature one of those demons you talked about?!"
"That is correct, Mark. You are here for one simple reason. You hold a power that can eliminate the forces of light, and we need that power to regain our freedom. The forces of light have sealed us away, in this dark plane of existence, but we would like to regain our throne in the world of the living, rather than be trapped in the shadows." The voice spoke, full of dark energy, causing Mark to shudder.
"Why won't you show yourself? I feel as if I'm talking to a hallucination right now, so it would be nice to put a face to this voice." Mark said, nervously glancing around the empty room.
"I am sure you realize that you are not talking to a speaker or any electronics based off seeing my little pet Alpha, so I will show myself in my human form, so as not to have you die from fright." The voice chuckled, as a dark cloud started forming five feet in front of Mark.
