In the Dark

The green haired demon ran up the stairs with surprising speeds towards the other man, meeting him halfway up the staircase when the dark haired man tried to charge towards him.

"Why are you here?" The dark haired man barked as he caught the green haired demon's fist in his hand, shoving him back with enough force to make him fall down the stairs.

"M̸y̼̗̩͚̟̝͎͘ ͚̯͇́f̶̗͕̖̟̗̰r̙̜̜̟̩͘i̦͎̯e̗̰͉̗̘̘͠n̝̤̙͉̦̖̘d̥̥ ͚͔́w̷̘̰̜̱͓a̻̻̦̲̯̹̗͘s ̡̗̻̣͖̮̜̳m̷͈̗͉͙̲ư͎̦͙̠r͙͕̞d͇͉͚̲e̞̱̞̰̳r̤̖̹̱͚̦͢e̟d͚̖̥̫!̩̝̖̘̗̭̪̀"

Lightning boomed around the two as the green haired demon stood up and swung a fist at the other man, managing to hit him hard in the jaw.

"He deserved it." The black haired man snarled fiercely, rubbing his jaw while retaliating with a swift kick to the green haired demon's legs that sent him crashing to his knees onto the wooden floor.

"The name's Dark by the way." The black haired man informed his opponent as he moved to stomp on his chest.

The demon rolled out of the way and jumped to his feet, darting out of the room and into the kitchen where he grabbed a kitchen knife.

Dark ducked under the blade and attacked Anti with a punch to the gut that made all of the air in his lungs rush out in a whoosh of air.

"I killed everyone that visited here for a reason, this isn't a place anyone should visit." Dark growled as he dodge another slice from Anti's blade.

"No...I hate to see what they become because of what I did." Dark admitted softly, lowering his guard for a fraction of a second.

Anti took the opportunity to try and stab Dark in the chest, only for Dark to grab his hand and twist it until Anti dropped the knife with a metallic thud.

"Why do you want to kill me?!" Dark snapped in irritation as he scooped the knife off of the ground and grabbed Anti in a chokehold, pressing the knife to his throat where there was already a wound.

"Y̥͓̲͇ò͚͚̪̮̞u҉͔͈͍ ̨͙͉̣̤̲͉̘m̺͙͇͚͇͕ụ̧̙͈̬ͅr҉̲͖̯̳͎d̼̫̥͡e҉r̝̤̬e͍d̲̟̭͟ ̳͈M̙͈͜a̴r͘ͅk̵͖͚!̪̘̬̘̫̩̝" Anti yelled furiously.

Lighting sounded again at the word murder, causing Dark to flinch slightly and allow Anti to slip from his grasp.

"This place is cursed because of me, you need to get far from here." Dark commanded sternly.

"Mark wasn't the only person m-killed here, so when I summoned his spirit, there were some other not as friendly creatures that came as well and still haunt this place. The one inside you is the spirit of a demon that was summoned here, then killed. This isn't you, but the demon inside." Dark explained.

"I'm...waiting...for someone to return." Dark spoke slowly as if unsure if he wanted to tell Anti the truth.

"I didn't kill him, I don't know who or what did, but it wasn't me!" Dark protested as he dodged Anti's fist flying towards his face.

"L̢̬̩͚͍̯̹̖i͎̪̩̻̼ͅa̘͕͚̣r̡̲͉̦͈!̗̳̪͚̫" Anti yelled angrily, baring his razor sharp fang like teeth.

"Mark wasn't an angel like everyone believed him to be, he was naive and foolish!" Dark argued defensively.

"Look, do you really want to live as what you are now?" Dark huffed impatiently.

The two glared at each other in the blackness, standing face to face as Anti twirled the knife in his hand while Dark shifted to stand in a defensive position.

Dark snapped his fingers, causing the lights to suddenly flash on and blind Anti with its suddenness.

Dark took advantage of his surprise by ramming his shoulder against his chest, causing him to fly through the air until he hit the wall with a bang accompanied by a sickening crack before falling to the ground with a thud, his body still.

Dark breathed out a sigh of relief as he walked over to his body to make sure he was dead, smoothing his hair back in exhaustion.

Just as Dark reached him, he sprang to his feet and stabbed Dark in the chest with a triumphant laugh.

Dark remained emotionless as he looked down at the blade embedded in him before looking back up at Anti as he yanked the blade out.

There was no wound on Dark.

"W̺̱̲̬͎͙̮h͇͔͉̪̺ͅa̼̲̦̬̣t̙̯͍̲͔?̻ ͔̘Hơ̞̙̖ͅͅw̺̦̲̩ ̤̤̖̰̜͜t̢̪͇̯͇̗ͅh͙̥̣̖e͏̮̥͍̩͔̼̲-̤̜̮͚̰"

"You see, you're just a demon." Dark interrupted with a smirk as he straightened his black suit jacket.

"I am a master of dark magic."

Dark's body glowed a vibrant red and blue as he lifted his hand up, causing Anti to fly up and hit the wall, his head slamming against it.

Dazed, Anti lashed out wildly to no avail as his vision spun.

With another wave of Dark's hand, Anti felt his head slam against the wall again, causing him to abruptly lose consciousness.
