Meanwhile Shadow’s mother was locked in combat with the one responsible for the attacking demons. Her opponent was a tall mysterious man with a large, glowing, white sword, and his face was covered by a cloak so she couldn’t get a good look at him. “Your highness I do believe that you should’ve left for the castle, knowing your son he’s probably on his way here now to come and get you.” The man said evilly. “What do you want with my son?” The queen asked. “Oh I think you know what I want from your son, that power you kept hidden from him his whole life.” The man said. As soon as Shadow arrived he saw the man kill his mother with a single stab to the stomach. The man then summoned a demon to devour the queen’s flesh. As Shadow watched the demon eat his mother’s body rage began to take over, Shadow ran toward the demon with killing intentions but was soon stopped by the man who murdered his mother. “You should’ve listened to your mother boy, now you belong to me.” The man said as he reached for Shadow. “No! Get away from me you murderer, I said get aaaaaaawaaaaaaaay!” Shadow shouted.
Just then a bright light began to surround Shadow making it impossible for the man to grab hold of him. “Argh! All forces retreat our objective is increasing in power.” The man commanded his demon. While Shadow was being enveloped by the light the demons and the man left the village. As the light started to fade from his body Shadow fell to the ground unconscious. Five hours later Shadow awoke in a still burning village, corpses of the villagers, soldiers, and demons are scattered all around the village. “*groan* what happened?” Shadow asked himself. As he looked around he slowly started to remember everything that happened that day, the attack on the village, the death of his mother, and the man who tried to kidnap him. Before Shadow could say anything he suddenly tripped over what looked like a stone. “Ouch! Who in there right mind leaves a large stone in the middle of the square like that?!” Shadow shouted to himself. Upon further inspection Shadow discovered that it wasn’t a stone, but rather a large egg. “Okay, so it isn’t a rock, but now the real question is who left it here, and why isn’t it in a warm location?” Shadow asked himself. Just then a beam of light shot out from the egg and created a dimensional vortex that could lead to anyplace in any dimension.
As Shadow stared at the portal he didn’t realize that he was walking toward the portal itself. Shadow woke up hours after stepping through the portal surrounded by soldiers in ebon armor. As he looked around Shadow noticed that one of the soldiers held the egg he had in his arms. “Hey give that back it’s mine.” Shadow demanded. Just then a large knight possessing two swords stepped toward Shadow and stared at him. “Why is this thing so important to you boy?” The knight asked Shadow. “Well it’s my responsibility to watch over that egg until it hatches.” Shadow said. This was the first time Shadow lied to anyone and it felt weird to him. The knight then ordered the soldier holding the egg to give it back to Shadow and before the troops left the knight told Shadow that should their paths ever cross again, they will kill him. Later that night Shadow pondered why the soldiers returned the egg when it would’ve benefited them more by taking the egg and killing Shadow in the process. As Shadow thought about these things he spotted a smoke coming from what Shadow would guess to be a fire or a chimney. Shadow quickly grabbed the egg and carried it toward the direction of the smoke using a worn down shirt to carry the egg.
Shadow had finally arrived at the location the smoke was coming from only to see a burning building surrounded by trees. “If I don’t do something this entire forest will go up in flames but what can I do there’s no water nearby.” Shadow thought to himself. Just then Shadow heard a voice crying out from inside the building. “There’s a person inside that flaming death trap I better help them first, hopefully I’m not too late.” Shadow said running towards the burning building. From the moment Shadow stepped into the raging inferno he had a feeling that something wasn’t quite right but still he continued. “*huff* *huff* man it’s hot but I must continue if I don’t that person will die in here.” Shadow said to himself. As Shadow ran through the flames he began to call out to the trapped person but with no response whatsoever. “Hey! Where are you? Can you hear me, if so then shout.” Shadow shouted out but still no response from the trapped person. “There’s only one room left if the survivor isn’t in here then I can only assume that he or she is no longer in this world.” Shadow thought to himself. Just then the voice he heard earlier called out “Help! Is anyone out there? Please help me!”

- A new line (enter x2) should be started every time a new character speaks, otherwise it just becomes a blinding block of text that discourages readers. Have someone proofread it for you, too, so that it can have a little polishing up. smile
