"yeah....i bet" he said slightly chuckling as she laid her head against his chest. he knew she could hear his erratic heartbeat for some reason her touch made him feel different then anything else he had felt before and he liked it, turning to look outside he saw a pair of glowing eyes they seemed intelligent and alive.....but dead as if the soul of the body had gone somewhere else as if it had been taken over. his heart wrenched from his chest as it pounded louder and louder..BA..BUMP..BA...BUMP and then he heard it.
a low voice that sounded like death and darkness like all the evils in the world.
"my friend" the beast said in a tone that only ember would be able to hear " i have been waiting for you, and now you shall fulfill YOUR CONTRACT" as the beast said this it leaped at ember, the beast saw ember trying to move but to naught he was already entering his body. he could feel ember embrace in the power the contract would endow upon him, his power for he was leriath the lord of death and this boy his assistant or more like his warrior.
Ember chocked coughed banged at his chest the feeling of power welling up in him, he had to get out something was happeneing to him and it felt weird unnatural...where had that beast come from and where did it go, but the answers hid from him like ships from a wolf.
Ember ran outside before falling his right hand burning as if on fire, he looked at it to see it was turning black. his other hand felt cold as if submerged in ice and he saw it was turning a pale blue white as the other hand started to have flames coming out of cracks "Ahhhhh!!" he screamed this as a brilliant light engulfed him blue flames swirling around his body as red bloodied water encircled the ground around him creating grooves in the dirt.
