Shhh....turn off the lights! Are you ready for horror story time?

'Come little children I take thee away.'
'Into a land of enchantment.'
'Come little children the time's come to play.'
'Here in my garden of shadows.'

Students of Hogwarts could hear the song echoing from the great hall, the doors were open but they could see a statue of a giant dog with three heads looking forward. The pumpkins around the entrance were slowly floating and dancing alone, they also were kinda inviting to the children to approach them. Students would look at Abyss and enter the great hall, get attacked by thick fog for some seconds before it becomes thinner and thinner, seemingly it would disappear at any moment, but then it would get thicker again... It was like a heart, beating. They continued forward when suddenly a swarm of bats dashed across them, scaring some of the children. Where normally candles would float were small jack-o-lanterns with blue, yellow, orange, red, pink, purple, green, white, and black. 

The atmosphere was creepingly scary, unconsciously the kids were getting nervous. They walked forward, sitting into their tables, the Headmaster and the teachers were on their table too, all of them except Azes Flamel. Azes Flamel was on a tent made out of Acromantula Silk, he was just sitting there, looking at the children with a smile in his lips. "Sit down, sit down!" the Headmaster of Hogwarts said while the children started to sit down, he chuckled and said: "Welcome students, today's decoration was provided by Professor Flamel and Professor Dumbledore, I warn you that you may get scared or surprised by this "decoration" that Professor Flamel and Professor Dumbledore used, but do not worry, Professor Flamel will make sure that no one gets hurt. Physically... or mentally." Azes could hear the students gull their saliva, some of them screamed as they saw a Boggart, the party just started. 

The song continued to play as the students were eating, some children tried the "Trick-or-Treat" Skeletons. Some of them got candies while others got the spooky part, Azes was ready to heal or even delete some memories if necessary, but it wasn't necessary... By now. Azes watched as some troublemaker kids screamed in horror, Azes smiled because he knew that his fog monster enchantment worked! While the party continued, he watched as Boggarts jumped between kids and transformed itself into their worst nightmares, making the kids scream but right after an automatic enchantment would activate the spell "Ridiculous" and transform their worst nightmare into something they think is funny. This created a very unique atmosphere around the great hall, with screams of horror, laughter, cries, and more. 

Some kids were curious about what Azes was doing on a tent made out of Acromantula silk and Azes would tell them scary stories and use his magic to scare them, if they listen to the end they would get the enchanted pumpkin that sings the songs that were echoing across the great hall. Then there was Newt Scamander and Leta Lestrange that approached his tent, they were really curious about what he was doing... "Hello, Professor Flamel," Leta said while getting near the tent, ready to touch it. Azes that was at the back of the tent said: "I do not recommend you to touch it." Seconds later he appeared and said: "Hello Leta, hello Newt. I can see the curious glee in your eyes shining across the dark interior of this hall. What do you desire?" Azes smiled, Newt could swear he saw something moving behind him... "Well Professor, we wanted to know what you are doing here," Newt said, thinking that it was just his mind playing with him.

Azes smile grew wider as he looked at Newt, saying: "Oh Newty, I tell stories and if you listen to them till the end, you can get something interesting." Leta nodded her head and Azes snapped his fingers, making them sit down two newly created chairs that simply appeared out of thin air. "Well, if you are curious about what stories I tell you, you can choose one of these." Azes shows a card, there were several words, titles. Newt and Leta noticed that it had different colors also, from light green to deep black. Newt and Lena nodded at each other and pointed at the dark title they found it read: [Dark Story: Spiders], making Azes smile. "Oh... It seems that you have chosen a dark story. I must warn though, it may scare you, super scary. So scary you may die. Are you sure?" Azes serious eyes locked on them and they nodded, making Azes break into crazy maniacal laughter. 

Newt and Leta were not expecting this and were taken back by this display of madness that their Professor was doing right now. They looked around to see if anyone was looking at them, but no one seemed to notice. "Now that you are sure, I can tell you..." They looked forward again just to see that Azes was not there anymore, but it was empty the silk tent. "Once upon a time, three wizard friends were visiting a forest. This forest was said to be cursed by the witch that there died and upon her death, she cursed the place with her own soul, saying that no one would take her land and family." The scenery changed, Newt and Leta watched as their surrounding area changed into a forest, it was night and dark, they could only look up and see branches and more branches from different trees. Suddenly the saw three men, walking forward with wands in hand. They couldn't see their faces not could identify those men, they could only listen. 

"The three arrogant wizards wanted to undercover the truth about the land and if it really was cursed." They watched as the three men suddenly looked around, they seemed to be ready to fight. "There were some rumors about this forest in the muggle world." They heard trees being broken, sticks snapping, and rocks being thrown out. "About a monster." Suddenly a roar echoed by, and the three men looked at each other, nodding and preparing to defend themselves. "About... spiders." After Azes' voice died down, a burst came from below the three men, several small, medium, big, and gigantic spiders appeared. As Azes had not taught or shown them about Acromantulas yet, they were quite stunned to see these ginormous spiders attacking the three men. "They couldn't even move, as death came and knocked on their doors. They didn't have the option to not open it, they could only open the door." The illusion faded to black as it showed the tree men being dragged by the spiders, warped into cocoons. 

The illusion then showed the spiders approaching a huge cavern. The cavern was dark, the spider continued down dragging the three cocoons that once were the three men. "But you know, as humans have their kings and queens..." The illusion showed a giant paw hitting the ground, the screen rises up until eight red gigantic eyes shone. "So do spiders." The giant Acromantula King screeched loudly, Newt and Lena watch as the there cocoons were simply devoured by the giant spider. Suddenly they felt like the spider was looking at them, they had the urge to flee, to run for their lives... But they couldn't move. The spider rushed towards them, its eight paws clicking the stone floor of the cave, destroying stalagmites and stalactites. When the giant spider roared, ready to bite them, the illusion faded to black. They opened their eyes again and they were back at the great hall, looking at Azes that was smiling at them. "So, did you liked my story?" 

Newt and Leta were sweating. Azes smiled and gave them each a palm-sized jack-o-lantern pumpkin that was singing "Come Little Children". "Professor... what were they?" Leta asked as her face still pales from fear, just thinking about it makes her afraid. "Oh, they were Acromantulas. Tomorrow you will learn about them." Newt then asked, a little fear in his eyes: "Do they really have kings or queens?" Azes smiled a little and said: "Don't be silly Newty, it was just a story. Acromantula Queen or King, they do not exist... Or do they?" As soon as Azes asked this, eight red eyes shone from behind him. Leta and Newt that had seen something moving behind Azes, were scared shitless. Azes then watched as both troublemakers disappeared running away, he chuckled as his trap had worked. He would try to make them choose the Spider story so he could scare the shit out of them and it worked.

Other kids just watched as Newt and Leta darted back to their tables while Azes was smiling and waving his hand like usual. Tomorrow's lesson will be fun. For Azes, not Leta or Newt.

You and Harry were cuddling on the couch. It was around 10 p.m and you were really scared cause you both just finished watching "IT". You couldn't forget that scary look of 'IT' (it's the name of the ghost in that flim). You buried you head deeper into Harry's chest everytime you think of that character. Harry noticed it and chuckled slightly. Harry already knew that you are scared of stuff like that.

"Y/N", Harry said quietly but enough for you to hear. "I have a story to tell you" he said and you nodded your head in an approval for him to continue. 

"You sure? Cause it's a hooorror story, I don't think you are strong enough to hear it" he said slightly teasing and to be honest you didn't want to hear the story but you didn't wanted to look weak in front of him too. "I guess I am strong enough...so tell me your "Horror Story" you said air quoting 'Horror story' as if you weren't scared at all but....yeah you know(*_*)

Harry started, "Okay so it was a strange dark lonely street of London. It was around midnight and there was a homeless man looking for help..he knocked at a door seeking for help, he begged to the owner of the house to let him stay for the night, 'Can I please stay at your house for a night? I'm homeless' said the man. 
'Okay you can sleep in my daughter's bed with her for the night but promise me not to hold or talk to her no matter what' said the owner".

*You gulped hard* 

Harry then continued, "Then the man did as told and slept in her daughter's bed with her without saying a word to her". 
'Hold me please', said the daughter. 'I can't I'm sorry I have promised your dad'. 

'Please hold me I'm so cold' the daughter pleaded. The man couldn't resist her voice and decided to hold her.

Harry ended the story then looking into your eyes trying to seek your reaction on it. I mean you were scared a bit but that story wasn't "Horror" at all. "So?" You said.."What was SO scary in that Harry" you said chuckling a bit.

"THE NEXT MORNING" Harry suddenly shouted making squeal. You then realised that the story wasn't just over yet. "So, the next morning" Harry spoke again, "the man said sorry to the owner of that house cause you know he broke his promise. The man said, 'I'm sorry I had to hold your daughter but she was really very cold to be honest'.
The man got confused for a second cause the owner didn't looked angry at all but then the owner coldly said "Yeah I know she's dead for two days". 

Harry finished his story and you got really scared and hide into his arms for him to protect you.
"Don't worry babe I'll protect you and I hope you aren't dead just yet" he said chuckling and you playfully hit his arm. "Ouch". "I'm not dumbo wbu?" You said chuckling. 
Harry suddenly got pale and with cold eyes he said, "Well, you never know" ;)

"I'm home"
"You guys are a little bit late?"
"Ah, someone invited me to a cult"
"What? There are also cults in the city?"
"Yes"
Van nonchalantly said as he put his bag on a sofa. He then looked at the table filled with food and could not help but nod in satisfaction as he looked at Andrea.
Andrea winked and raised her thumb in response, she then turned her attention towards the two visitors, "How are the two of you?", she said as she gestured for Harvey and Beatrice to sit down.
"Great as always", Harvey said as he also let out a wink of his own, "...And always lured by your beauty"
"I see", Andrea just smiled back.
"Ah, you cooked all of this, Miss Andrea?", Beatrice said as she sat down, "You should have waited for us so I could have helped you prepare"
"No no", Andrea shook her head, "You've already helped me last time. Come, let's eat first before you guys do whatever it is you are doing"
"Okay!", Harvey said as he clapped his hand and started chowing down the food.
And Evans seemed to be happy as well, Andrea thought as he watched Van treasuring each bite of his food. Andrea still remembered how Van would look every day when he was still in the Relic Graveyard, not once was there even a smile on his face.
Every day, he walked with a bruise, either coming from his father or from an altercation with gangs.
And now, he walked with a smile. He no longer had to steal, and likewise, he didn't have to worry if someone was going to take his things.
He didn't have to fight or scavenged for food. His eyes, which were like that of a rabid animal, filled with nothing but violence, were completely gone.
The two of them, they were living now.
Andrea could not help but let out a sigh of relief. It would seem she was getting more and more emotional every day.
"Is… something wrong?"
"No…", she quickly answered Van's concern with a smile, "Everything... is great"
A few more minutes, and the group was finished with their meal. But before Andrea could pick up the plates, Harvey picked up his bag from the floor and removed something from it-- a set of clothes.
Van could not help but blink his eyes numerous times as he looked at what Harvey was holding, "What's… that?", he stuttered. He had a very bad feeling about this.
"We, my friend… will be sleeping over for the night!"
"..."
"...Maybe not everything", Andrea let out a silent whisper. As soon as she said everything was great, something like this happens. But nonetheless, chaos is good once in a while, Andrea thought as she tried to convince herself.
"...Where will you sleep?", Van furrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, who seemed very excited.
"In your room, of course!", Harvey looked at Van as if he said something weird, "And Bea will sleep in Miss Andrea's room"
"Or…", Harvey continued as a serious expression suddenly painted his face, "Would you rather I sleep in Andrea's room? Ohohoho", Harvey mumbled as he raised both his thumbs playfully.
"I will suffocate you with a pillow", Andrea nonchalantly said with a smile.
"..."
"No", Beatrice shook her head, "We're sleeping in the dorms, Harvey. Besides, I don't have any clothes with me"
"No worries, I brought you one", Harvey said as he took out another set of clothing from his bag.
"..."
All of them stared at each other for a while, completely at a loss as to what to do. But after a few seconds, Beatrice could only sigh, "Fine", she said, "I don't want to leave the two of you alone with this buffoon in your house"
"I will protect you, Miss Andrea", Beatrice added as she fixed her glasses.
"Oh my", Andrea let out a chuckle, "I'll be depending on you then"
Seeing that everything seems to have been set without even asking for his opinion, Van could only scratch his chin. He just learned how to ignore the whispers that he has been hearing inside the house, and now he had to sleep with Harvey in his room.
Will he also learn how to ignore Harvey's voice if he practices it?
"Also!"
Van was instantly disrupted from his thoughts as Harvey once again took out something from his bag.
"...Why do you have a lantern in your bag?", Beatrice could not help but squint her eyes. And how was he even able to fit something like that inside his bag!?
"Ohoho!", Harvey let out a robust burst of laughter as he ran towards the ceiling and switched off all the lights in the house. He then turned on his crystal-operated lantern, placing it in front of his face as he made humming sounds with his mouth. "It is time, for scary stories"
"..."
"Goodnight guys", Van said as he stood up.
"Alright"
"No… no wait!", Harvey quickly sat back to his chair, "I will tell my story first…", and proceeded to tell a scary story for more than 30 minutes.
"...And so, it turns out… it was only my shadow!"
"That was stupid!", Beatrice could not help but slam her hand on the table, "You built the story up for half an hour for that ending!?"
"No…", Harvey shook his head, his eyes almost watering, "If you were there, I am sure your whole body would shiver in fear"
Seeing the two bickering with one another again, Andrea could not help but let out a light chuckle.
"W… what about you, Miss Andrea?", Harvey stuttered as Beatrice choked the life out of him, "Do you have any scary stories to tell?"
"Well…", Andrea placed her finger on her chin as she looked to the side.
Beatrice quickly let go of Harvey's neck as she waited for Andrea to tell her story.
"I have one about the Relic Graveyard", Andrea then said as she pulled the lantern to her side.
"I know the two of you are aware that the Relic Graveyard got its name because it's where they throw relics, right?", she said.
Harvey and Beatrice nodded their heads at the same time, their attention undivided.
"Well, that isn't true…", Andrea dimmed the lights on the lantern, causing only her eyes to be the only thing that can be seen in the dark, "The truth is… it truly is a graveyard, but not for relics… but for people"
"!!!"
"Hundreds of years ago, a group of Explorers was excavating some relics, hoping to find hidden treasures within the rubble. But then, one Explorer got separated from their group… because he heard something calling for him"
"!!!"
"And so, he ran towards it. Throwing some of the relics away and digging his way deeper into the mountain of trash… deeper and deeper he went. And when he realized it, he was already below the pile. He started to panic, he knew if he removed one more relic, the pile would come crashing down on him. But still, the voice called for him, enticing him to continue"
"W… what did he do!?"
"In the end, he decided not to continue", Andrea shook her head, "He quickly turned back… however, before he could even take a single step…"
"BAM!", Andrea screamed as she slammed her palm on the table, "Someone grabbed his feet!"
"What!?"
"And pulled him deeper inside!"
"!!!"

"He struggled, but in the end, his greed caused him to be swallowed by the mountain of relics", Andrea's voice went quiet and quieter as she raised the brightness of the lamp.
Harvey and Beatrice could not help but gulp as Andrea finished her story. It was short, but it had a lot of impact.
Van, however, could only smile. That was a common story circulating in the Relic Graveyard to prevent children from digging and picking up relics. But it was also a lesson about greed, or so Van thought.
"That…", Harvey cleared his throat as he wiped the sweat that built up on his forehead, "...That wasn't really scary at all", he chuckled awkwardly, trying to mask his fear.
"W… what about you, Van?", he then quickly turned his head towards Van, "Do you have any stories to tell?"
"I once ate maggots from a dead ra--"
"Okay, that's enough"
"They were unexpectedly flavorfu--"
"That's enough!"

From then on, the humans have discovered that there were others, and they all held the same power... A power that was known as the System.

And those who were born with it were called System Holders.

The System Holders, with their mysterious powers, were the ones who helped recover the world from the monsters, once again reclaiming it.

the Holder of the Hermes System, the Gatherer of Souls.

I'm a fan of horror.I've always been,even at a young age.I was born around the 2000s and IPhones as well as YouTube,have been a part of me since I was 8.

When I discovered horror channels,it felt like I was doing something forbidden,which boosted my adrenaline and only made me wanna watch more and more horror videos.One day,I stumbled open this one video...

It explained weird phenomenons,that are still unexplainable today.You could've find those phenomenons in „Scary stories to tell in the dark".And they of course provided imagery.I was more than spooked by what I saw,but tried to tell myself that it wasn't real.
Well... atleast one of them was.

I sat in my room,around 3am at night.Tired,because I stayed up for so long.You know,I always have a routine when I go to bed:Brush my teeth,put on my pjs,close the shutters and turn the lights off.I did my routine,getting more and more tired while also getting spooked by weird noises.They were nothing,atleast I thought so.

I was about to close the shutters,when I saw a weird shadow on the edge of my eyesight.I turned my attention towards the bizarre silhouette and would've almost screamed at the sight of it.

In the light of a street lamp,a humanoid figure,probably male,stood in it.He wouldn't have been so scary,if there wouldn't have been white glowing eyes,which seemed to directly state into my soul.

He was a so called shadow human/person.These are humanoid looking silhouettes of all kinds of people.With or without hats,any gender and any age.Sometimes trying to communicate with the person,who is seeing the creature.There is one important part,which differentiates them from normal humans:White glowing eyes,which seem to always stare at you.You notice them instantly,because they are seen within 3 to 6am.

Anyway,I panicked and was more then awake.The intense fear of it being able to appear in my room,made my try to hide from it.I closed the shutters,turned off the lights and hid beneath my blanket,so that it couldn't stare into my soul,so that I wouldn't have to see it again.I ended up sleeping with my head being turned to the wall and the blanket hiding the back of it.The whole time,I felt like I was watched,or as if far away whispers were trying to get onto me.

I don't ever wanna see them again.

This is a story in every chapter is not the same horror is the main plot of the story’s but sometimes it will be a little different and don’t forgot I know what you did

"Winter as usual" Mary thought. She was looking through the window and saw a ginger haired girl was jumping happily in the air. That was Nina! She was always bullied because of her look and character. Nina wasn't a girl who could speak as the way she wanted. This time, Nina was lucky. Nobody was around her. There wasn't much snow around and winter was about to end but somehow the children were still playing; they were running around, playing snowball, and screaming as much as they wanted. Of course, there were some who was hiding little rocks in snoballs. One of them just hit the little girl and her forehead started bleeding. Things were not supposed to go perfect all the time but Oscar was there and he protected Nina by covering her body. What a little gentleman he was. Oscar was always helping others when he saw they needed help. He hated bullying people. He had heart of a big man in his childish body... 
This view reminded Mary about Henning and Sarah. She had to work for very long hours and couldn't get the chance to see them as she wanted. There was an upcoming event Henning was talking about. He was so excited about it and his eyes were shining with joy. Anybody could understand how much Henning wanted his mother to be there with him at that day. She went to the room of her boss to talk. This man was very scary and didn't have much mercy. She remembered that he was one of those people who think that the only person is himself. She knew it was hard to ask but she knew she was going to be there at that day...
I could hear their voices.
"Come back here you sissy! How dare you tell Nicholas these words?"
That was the voice of Milo. He was calling me sissy because he hated me. I really don't understand why he hates me. I stumbled and fell like a cat. My hands were on the earth. I stood up again. Pain on my hands and knees was so big and there was blood as well but I had to keep running. We were close to forest. It was not much possible to run fast at that season; the whole snow was almost gone but ice was still. For a moment, I thought they all stopped chasing me. There was somebody. So I have kept running from him until I realised I was lost in this creepy forest. I had to stop for a while, tried to breathe deeply, and looked around. There was nobody. It was creepy because it was dark. I was all alone. Sun was setting and the worst is I didn't have any idea about how to go back home. It was cold as well! I should have been a brave son as my mother wanted me to be. What if this ghost Lucas  always tells stories about comes and haunts me? He even said that when the ghost hears voice of children, it gets more and more terrifying. The ghost stories were getting popular among children but nobody seen or caught to it yet... Oh mama, where are you?
Milo was the fastest. Being the fastest runner among the children brought him an advantage; Lucas and Nicholas were running after Henning as well but Milo was the only one who saw that Henning was running to the forest. However, being the fastest didn't mean being the bravest. So he gave up. He was just a child and scared. Milo saw Henning's mother on the way and he knew she would question a lot. He should have found a lie about what just happened.
"Good evening Mrs. Sandberg. I was on my way home and saw Henning was running to the forest. I really don't have any idea about what happened but I am afraid that ghost there can do something bad to him. Everybody is so afraid of it because it especially loves haunting children. And now, it is almost dark."
"Have you ever seen a ghost with your own eyes Milo? I think you haven't and nobody else either. You children need to stop scaring each other with that. Now I will go and look for Henning and you ought to go home immediately before it completely gets dark."
I was sitting under a tree hoping not to come across to that scary ghost. I started crying. My hands were covering my face but tears always find a way. All of a sudden I heard my mama's voice calling me. I called back. It was easy to understand that she was extremely worried.
"Henning! Heninning! Where are you? Call me back if you can hear me. You don't need to be afraid anymore. Mama is here Henning!"
"I'm here, under the big planetree."
"For God' sake Henning. Luckily I saw Milo on my way home."
I showed mama my knees were bleeding she took a little perfumed tissue which she was using always and that was making her smell more beautiful. My beautiful mama. She was trying to stop the bleeding with the tissue. I touched her face and tried to stop her crying. I asked her to carry me...
"Tell me what happened."
"After noon, as we always do, we were playing at the park. Nicholas came near us and started talking." 
"Look at me everybody, look at the strongest guy among you skinny brats. No, no! I changed my idea. Now, if you keep starin at me, you will not have ant tooth in your mouth anymore!"
"I could absolutely say Leo was about to faint. Nicholas kept talking."
"Let me punch your little stupid face. Nothing can give me more pleasure than that. I am about to tell you the most interesting thing you can ever hear."
Mama asked me how all these stuff happened and they started running after me
"Alright my little sweet son but I still wonder what made them do this to you? Is there something else you need to tell?"
She was smiling and looking at me with curious eyes. You would feel guilty and mad normally after a question like this but the way she asked and the reason was different. So I kept going.
"I asked him what it was about and why he was a stuffed shirt but Leo stopped me before I get myself into a real trouble."
"Stop it Henning. Can't you just see what is going to happen next? He is just the real pest."
"Nicholas wasn't even listening others so I am lucky he was just still talking. He mentioned that ghost again; how he could it and i begged him to let go. You know, Mama. Nicholas gets me so mad when he talks like this. I could not keep myself from telling him that he was a liar. There was no ghost like this and even if there was he could never beat it. He got so angry at me and started yelling. I do not know why but I suddenly start running. Honestly, I was so afraid. Nicholas, Milo, and Lucas were running after me."
Mama knocked on the door when I stopped telling. Papa answered, he was holding Sarah in his arms. She was asleep He asked where we have been and mama told everything all over again...

"Are you sure about this, Raven?"

                "Are you sure about this, Duchess?"

                "I…don't know…"

                "Then that makes two of us…" Raven grimaced.

                Fate or Destiny, it didn't really matter. The future was a horrifying place, and anyone would be afraid of the out of the future that waited for them. For these two girls, it was probably for worst.

                Catching a glimpse of her future, thanks to the story book of legends, Raven Queen has learned that she will end up as like her mother – probably even worst. Though she wanted to change the future in and of itself, she had to sign away her destiny so that at the moment she would have saved Wonderland. Though she tried to fight off the power of the Evil Queen from taking over, every day it has shown little by little, she was becoming her mother. She didn't want to risk ruining the lives of those around her. She loved everyone, she could never do such a thing.

                Duchess' future was different. She only had two possible endings, either to be turned into a swan or she will have to face death in itself. Duchess recalls nights as a child where she would dream of days where a bird would fly into her room one night and turning into a young beautiful woman; she would then turn to her, and her mother would say "I'm home sweetie" – Then the child would wake up, in tears. Duchess never knew what happened to her mother, but she given up hope long ago that her mother would fly back into her life. She wanted a future for herself, but not one that was as bleak. She would do anything to avoid a future. Could she do anything?

                Duchess looked into the deep bottomless pit that was the wishing well. "And you are positive this will work?"

                Raven sighed in defeat as she shook her head. "No, I'm not."

                A couple of years ago, Raven came across something interesting.

                In the past, there were two girls that defied their future. It is unknown what exactly happened to those two, but the sure thing was that the two of them were gone - and their stories were gone from this world. The two young women were sisters; their stories were about causing harm to one another - which they could never do. With a magic spell, they "Left this world, and hoped for another."

                These two girls were, "Bella" and "Brutta" sister. In a way, Raven and Duchess mirrored the situation. All four faced a future that none of them wanted to come to pass, and so, there was only one thing.

                While studying the dark magic that was her mother's, Raven Queen came across a gray book. It was neither light nor dark magic; just magic. In this book, she found the spell that Bella and Brutta used to open a portal to leave this world. It seemed to be a simple spell –considering it was used by two non-magic users, it was to be expected- Raven should have been able to pull it off.

                She needed to tell Duchess about it. While these two girls seemed to be total opposites, with little in common, they have been able to be in a relationship with one another. Perhaps it was their connection between bad futures they did not want to come to pass that they were able to bond with one another. Either way, they were in this now.

                Duchess and Raven both found themselves staring into the deep abyss that was the wishing well. While many times, the destination would always be predetermined by the caster of the spell – this time it would be different.

                Who would be stupid enough to try this? This was a very dangerous gamble. Only two people have tried this spell, and as far as anyone can tell; they were no longer alive – at least their stories were no longer around. So why would anyone risk everything for this.

                Because they have nothing left to lose.

                Duchess jerked a bit as she felt her love clutch her hand.

                "Are you sure you want to this?" Raven asked, a worried expression ran across her expression.

                "I'm with you until the end," Duchess smiled; fear made her look paler than the feathers that wrapped around her head.

                Raven nodded, as her gazed returned to the wishing well.

                For the longest time the two women looked at the well, many thoughts had crossed their minds. If they did this, what would happen? Would they succeed? Would it fail? Would they die? Would they go to another world? Why was it that the unknown was scary.

                The question was that they had to ask themselves, over and over. Which was scarier? Was it future that they didn't want or was it the unknown?

                It seemed that they may have decided to back out.

                Duchess took a deep breath as she watched Raven's free hand started to come to life as dark magic emitted its energy through her finger tips.

                Duchess watched as Raven went to work. As a non-magic user, duchess had never given it much thought; but when a magic user puts their mind to it, they look beautiful as their hands came alive and created a type of beauty. That probably what attracted her to Raven so much; the two of them could create beautiful magic with their body, but in their own unique way.

                Raven closed her eyes as she put the final touch into the magic spell.

                As she finished the spell, the Wishing well erupted in a white light that blinded the sky like a volcano reaching the heavens.

                It was then that Duchess just realized that this was it. One way or another, everything was going to come to an end. Either this was going to work, or it wasn't. This was do or die, for the both of them.

                She looked over to Raven Queen, she had the exact same expression that she had…she too had the exact same thought as her.

                These thoughts that Raven and Duchess were experiencing; were they the same thoughts that Bella and Brutta sister had all those years ago. How scary must have it seemed to them that this moment was when everything was going to change.

                Raven watched the white light that shot forth into the sky. They had to act quickly, it was probably already noticed at the school, so they had to jump in soon or risk a teacher or someone else was going to put an end to this whole thing.

                Raven was the first to make her move as she placed her hands on the rim of the wishing well. Duchess swallowed her anxiety as she followed suit.

                Soon, they both found themselves standing on top of the well, had they not been able to look into the ending abyss of darkness before; there was no way they could look into the void that was looking back at them.

                Breathing becoming more and more erratic, Duchess could feel herself hyperventilating. She felt like she was going to chicken out wasn't she.

                You could almost hear the two heart beats pounding as they gazed into the void.

                Duchess clutched her love's hand as tightly as she could. Raven looked over at her.

                "Y-you ready?" Duchess asked.

                Raven nodded.

                "Okay…" Duchess nodded back.

                For the moment, they both looked at one another. Studying one another, as if trying to memorize every little detail. Why not? This could literally be the last time.

                "I love you."

                "I love you, too."

                And they jumped.
