Subj: [ffml] [HD] The Black Knight Date: 01-01-30 23:30:02 EST From: darklord@compusmart.ab.ca (His Dark Lordship) Reply-to: ffml@yahoogroups.com To: ffml@yahoogroups.com (ffml), hilliondynasty@egroups.com (Hillion Dynasty) The figure stood before the pool. In the stillness of the liquid shone the stars, burning balls of gas thousands of light years away. The figure dipped his black gauntlet into the liquid. It snatched onto him, like thick mollasses, as the image slowly changed to that of a planet. Earth. Scraping the liquid off his finger, he ran his hand through his silvery hair. "You have not slept for days." said a voice from behind him, a voice he knew all too well. "Is something troubling you, my son?" "My son..." muttered the tall figure. "Odd, he never called me that. In all the time I knew him, he never refered to me as son." "That is not what is troubling you." "Naye, but it certainly helped. Stand with me, old man." The figure strolled up. His scalp was bald, but that was about it. The rest of his body was emmersed in his great white beard. "The planet; it is beconing me, crying for my return." "And would you permit such selfish desires to endanger those you would otherwise love once again?" The tall figure chuckled. "It is true, my soul is stained with evil, but alas, the dragon was slain by the knight." "The dragon was not the only one with such power, Golbez." "Naye, FuSoYa, but I feel as if I am needed. I am one of the sons of KluYa..." "Yes, you are. One of the two. You are his dark son, and Cecil was his light." "Cecil was borne of darkness." "Cecil was borne of light, and stained with darkness. You, on the other hand, were borne of darkness and now embrace light." "ANd you fear I will lose this embrace once I return to Earth?" "Naye, I do not fear anything. This, I know." "What is your reasoning." "Once you reached the moon and met your master, you began to feel remorse. You were able to keep consious the whole time, but only once you left the Earth's protective aura did you gain a soul." "And I regained that when I returned to the Earth." "Aye, only because I was there, and I will not be there this time." "Suit yourself." Golbez sighed as he turned on his heel and proceeded to walk away. "I will miss this place." "What is there to miss? Why must you insist on going to what you know will be your ruin?" "The feeling that I am running away." muttered Golbez. "The feeling that whilst my brother stayed on Earth, accepted his sins and death, I fled off with you, escaping death in an eternal sleep, only to awaken for a week every couple hundred years, and avoiding facing to what I had done." "You wouldst have done it all over again." "Perhaps. But now I am wiser. Perhaps..." Golbez shook his head and picked up his helmet. Placing it over his head, he raised the visor once more. "Goodbye, FuSoYa, my true father." FuSoYa said nothing as Golbez slowly faded away. -- The eternal lord of darkness...
