Darkness Covers All

This hill, it held so many memories. From the very first time I entered this camp, to the time that left to visit Nathaniel. There was so much that I could remember about this hill, that it would be difficult to think afterward. Hell, I'd probably bore myself to sleep. For now, I'd just sit here and write some music for a little bit.

It wasn't everyday that we'd be allowed to run around by ourselves, but I wasn't feeling into the camp fire tonight. Honestly, all anyone ever did was sing and compete against each other. Not that the cabin leaders really knew, but there were always power usage against each other there. I didn't want to be in the middle of that tonight, so of course, I avoided going to the fire.

Writing music, it was one of the only things I was good at. I never claimed to be a runner, or an artist, or anything like that. Just music. It was my life, outside of my powers, and I wasn't about to let that change for any reason whatsoever.

The darkness proved to be a bit more difficult to writing music, but my eyes were already adjusted to dark. Not many people would be out wandering around tonight, but I was. Plus, anyone who saw me writing in the pitch dark would think I was nuts anyways. There was no way anyone was going to bother me.

Silas unhurriedly strode up the hill of his next favorite place in the whole wide world. He had no ride here, he had to walk all the way from Daly City to SanFran. He would've apparated, but he didn't want to draw too much attention from the pedestrians. They were already staring at him, considering he had a ton of holes in his shirt, and he was walking barefoot. Blood all over his hands had the police interrogating him. Luckily, he performed the obliviation spell to erase their memory.

He had just come back from his last---er, whatever you want to call it. It was a ten year old boy. Reminded him much of himself. He couldn't do it anymore. He knew he needed to come back. He lifted his leg and stuffed his wand inside his shoe, with his jeans covering the body and the hilt.

He finally reached the peak of the hill and let out a deep long sigh. "Here goes the rest of my non-existent life."

My music was fluttering around in my head, as if it was a butterfly, in search of a way to escape. Good thing I brought my guitar with me. Picking it up, I began lightly strumming the tune in my head on it. My hands hovered across the neck of it, playing gently as the night stood still. Every few notes, I would pause to write down what I was playing, or to edit something, but in the end, I continued to play whatever came to mind.

Up until this point, I could of swore I was all alone on this hill. That was when I heard another voice. It was much deeper than my own. Honestly, I did not even recognize the voice, but that wasn't all that shocking. This was a huge camp. It wasn't all that shocking when you didn't know someone else who was in the camp. You can't know everyone. Still, I thought everyone was at the fire.

Turning my head to look at the owner of the voice, I couldn't help but tilt my head. Definitely haven't seen him around before. "Excuse me?" I asked slowly, referring to what he had said earlier. I felt kind of rude, saying what I did, but I wasn't expecting anyone else to be on this hill. "Sorry," My cheeks burned with embarrassment, not that he could see that anyways. "I just wasn't expecting anyone to be on this hill."

I slowly started dragging my feet again looking down at my shoes. I hear a much lighter pitched voice and I look around to see who was disturbing my (lack of) peace. I see a girl with dark wavy brown hair down to her shoulders. She seemed to be playing her guitar. Looked like she was having the time of her life. Well, how come she can be so happy when I can't?

"Oh well bloody hell! I'm oh so terribly sorry that you don't own this entire camp." I rudely exclaim not hiding my accent. I glare at her. She seemed like a prissy little princess. I don't like her, well then again I didn't like anyone.

^^Look at that fail of a post. I feel like stabbing my brain right now.

The boy seemed to be extremely unhappy, but that wasn't my concern. What was my concern was the way he was talking to me. I apologized for being rude, but he was just being a douche, and I wasn't about to stand for that. Sure, I was nice, but I did not take lightly to rude people. Getting up from my place, I was about to smack this guy.

Making my way over to him, I poked him in the chest, then crossed my arms. "Where the hell do you get off being a douchebag to innocent people. I meant no harm to you," I paused to poke him once more and return my hands to where they originally were. "And you just start freaking out on me. Sorry, but I don't take lightly to people being rude to innocent people."

I didn't even know this guy, and I already didn't like him. "Get a reality check, someone apologizing isn't the end of the world. And if you have a problem with someone question why you're entering the camp when everyone else is at the camp fire, then you can suck it." With that, I crossed my arms, and stared at him, just daring him to yell back at me. I would send him flying back out of this place faster than he could even apologize.

I wasn't in the mood to deal with prissy moody girls ranting all around me. So I just stood there listening to her yell at him. I heard enough of this from Mum who keeps leaving my spam messages on my cellular phone. It's all about how she hasn't heard from me in over three bloody years and how my little sister is worried about me.

She kept poking me, and I got to tell you, it hurt. A lot. I had so many bruises and scars where she was poking me, and I swear I might start pussing a bleeding if she continues her violence. But, like I said, I didn't want to deal with it and I didn't want to argue. So I stood there staring, no, more like glaring at her with squinting eyes.

The longer I stood there, the more frustrated I was getting. Because all I wanted was to go to the Big House and re-admit myself and go to fucking bed. But it doesn't look like I'm doing that any time soon, now does it. I had half a mind to take out my wand and point it in front of her. Actually, I had a full mind.

I reach down into my shoe and I took out my ten inch mahogany wand and I point the tip against her throat, "Now, are we done bitching?" I say firmly.

I was just ranting at him, and all he was doing was standing there, glaring at me. This guy was already getting under my skin, which is something that isn't all that easy to do. I'm generally a very polite, quiet girl, but this guy really just pushed my buttons, and I had only known him for maybe ten minutes.

After I paused to take a breath, he leaned down to his shoe and pulled out what looked to be a wand. Oh, so he was a wizard. Good to know. It took him not even a second later to point it at my throat. I wasn't about to lie and say that I wasn't slightly concerned with the fact that he was pointing a wand at me, but I was pretty concerned with the fact that he didn't seem to care what he was doing. If a cabin leader saw this, he would be out of here in about ten seconds.

"Go ahead and do it," My voice didn't have a single crack in it as I stared at him. "Or, maybe you should back up and put that away." Maybe I'd put it away for him. I glanced down at it, and my power activated, sending it flying out of his hand and a ways away from us on the ground. "Like I said, I'm not afraid of you, so go ahead, go get it and kill me, see if I care."

She threw my wand away from my hands and I was pretty bloody agitated and I wasn't going to deal with this. "Whatever," I say shaking my head, walk over to retrieve my wand. Stupid arseface.

Once I had my wand back into my hand, I flipped it a few times. contemplating whether if she was going to be my last one. I didn't want to take the chance and get kicked out of my only hope of finding sanity again. I turn around to walk away. "You're pretty darn lucky you don't know what I'm capable of," I call out.
"How many people I've hurt," I say a little bit more quietly.

I couldn't help but smirk at the fact that he was so irritated. This was much more fun than I thought it was going to be. However, he didn't really seem to be too excited about any of this. Well, his loss I guess. When he went over and found his wand, I turned to look at him, crossing my arms. "Whatever," I mocked him, rolling my eyes. Why were guys always saying 'whatever'? Did they not know any other words?

He was flipping his wand back and forth, and I followed it with my eyes. Of course, I had never run into a wizard before, but I had heard they could do some pretty crazy things with their wands. He seemed to be one that was more for dark magic. I mean come on, he just held it to my throat. All of this intrigued me, and I was going to have to look into it.

I moved closer to him, tilting my head slightly as he continued to turn his wand back and forth. "I could handle myself against you." I said, raising my voice higher than it was before when we were standing closer. I slightly heard what else he said, and I looked at him, mouth slightly agape. "You don't seem proud of that," Gulping, I turned my head back to the wand, wondering how he could make such evil come from it. "You sound sorry."

Subject: Re: Darkness Covers All Fri Nov 26, 2010 3:40 pm

Of course I wasn't damn proud of it. I killed several people, and she's noticing that I wans't proud of it? And I was sorry. I turned back around to face her with a irritated expression on my face. I roll my eyes. "Well, would you be proud if you killed over 70 people?"

I close my eyes, realizing that I let it slip. I bet she was going to alert the authorities and then I'm in jail. There goes my last chance. My dad wouldn't have been proud of me. I slipped my wand back into my shoe. This priss wasn't worth it.

^^FAIL. I unfortunately have block :[

I couldn't help but back off a little when he said he killed over seventy people. That wasn't something one heard everyday. Maybe it was just something I found odd, but I didn't want to be very close to a murderer. At the same time, I could tell, deep inside, that he was practically calling out for help. So, I was going to help him in any way I could. "Maybe, you should stop killing people," Probably the worst suggestion ever, but what else was I supposed to say? "All you have to do is use your powers for good..."

Taking a step towards him, looking down towards his shoe. "You can do it, for some reason, I have faith in you." With that, I walked right past him and grabbed my guitar. Putting it in the case, I picked it up and began walking the other direction. It was time I get back to my cabin.

[Crappy post, but we can start another thread if you want]

Yeah, this thread kind of has a bad start to a plot. We can start a new one.
