PREVIOUSLY ON DARKNESS BEFELL US

NEN (NARRATION)

We sat in silence when the train went into the little dark tunnel and it slowed down a bit,

When it went through the other side, we were shocked to see a woman with long white hair standing at the front, we immediately went to fighter mode,

"Well nice to finally see you again Karth, "

....

We all looked at the woman and she was smiling at Karth basically looking at him intensely and I was confused,

Who was she?!

She then turned and looked at me, well glared at me and I raised an eyebrow, I even don't know who she is,

"Who are you? " Karth asked looking at her and I too wanted to know who she was and how she got on this train,

She smirked and rested her _____wait is that a stuff?!_______why is she carrying that thing around?!

"I knew you wouldn't remember me darling but it is me______Tenia, " she said and added her name when no one clearly understood her, but then my eyes got wide I heard that name before,

I looked at Karth and his eyes got wide too recognizing the name, everyone else was surprised too, I saw Farath pushing Santi behind him and she looked scared,

"How did you get here? " Karth asked glaring at her,

"I came to see my love the one and only, " she said simply and I gasped, is she crazy?!

"Excuse me lady, but he is mine!! " I said standing up and she glared at me damn,

"So this is the one ______i have to say I expected so much better than this, " she said smirking at me,

"Karth what is she talking about? " I asked because I was really confused about what the hell is going on here,

"He is mine little girl you don't know anything about us, " she said confidently and I rose an eyebrow at Karth who was glaring at her,

"I must say that fool Zod really doesn't know how to do a simple job for a rat like him he is really clever huh_______going behind my back! " she continued smiling at Karth,

"What do you want?! " Karth said pissed off and she smiled again, psycho!

We are approaching the tunnel that leads to the main town, shit!!

When we approached the darkness she smiled a sinister smile,

There was shuffling around and pushing but I couldn't see anything because it was so dark all I did was fight when I felt someone grabbing me and pulling, I tried to pull away but I couldn't whatever is pulling is so strong, a blow on my head and I was out like a light

....

KARTH (NARRATION)

When the train finally got through the tunnel, Tenia was no where to be seen and _____so was Nen!

All I felt was a small fight and me pulling someone I thought I was pulling Nen to my side that psycho has got her!

I looked at Santi and she was scared and clinging to Farath's arm while Noth looked like he didn't understand what happened just now

"Nen is gone Karth, " Noth said seriously,

"Also she knows about Zod helping us I just hope Nen is okay! " Farath said looking serious too,

"What really happened between you and the Dargoth queen Karth it seems this isn't just a normal obsession! " Noth asked me and I looked at the ground

I honestly never knew it was her!!! I mean I used to hear about the etocrite queen but I never really met her I used to just picture even the first time the etocrite king attacked us I didn't take a good look at the queen, it is such a long time ago I didn't think I would ever hear her voice again, how did she even change her face no wonder I didn't recognize her,

Noth is right I do have a deep history with Tenia that even my parents didn't want me to live,

Farath looked at me like he was waiting for an explanation too,

We stood around looking confused and the train still went on

....

NEN (NARRATION)

I was in and out of coinciousness I could hardly keep up with what was happening I was being dragged by two huge creatures I didn't even have time to scream, they were dragging through a long hallway and I saw a trail of white hair in front of me the person was moving slowly,

All of a sudden I was thrown on the ground and I looked up slowly my head killing me, what did they do to me!!?

"And here she is _______Anensia, " the white hair bitch said and she sat up on a throne holding her stuff tight,

"That is my name, " I said smirking yet my head was pounding on and on,

"I must say he does have a type doesn't he? " she said standing up and coming in front of me, why sit down just to get up! Trying to make a point!

"Well I don't have white hair so_____" I said shrugging and she glared at me,

"You don't really know Karth do you? " she asked me lifting my chin as she smirked at me,

"You see Karth's and I were lovers when we were so young even before your little friendship or maybe during your little friendship, " she said smiling and I pretended not to be shocked but she saw through it, and smiled,

"Yeah we were ________you see my father was the leader of the Leza tribe before that bastard Paz took over when he killed both my parents and well I killed his daughter too so good revenge______anyway when my parents went over to the Hnerez tribe to discuss the ongoing conflict between the tribes I met Karth there you were there too, we hit it off good he was really nice I just say but well my father learnt about our relationship and he forbade it entirely he said I should not even think about it at all but I wanted to fight for Karth he was the love of my life he meant everything to me and well he told me Garth too forbade it too but Karth accepted he just let our love go just like that he abandoned me I was the only one fighting for our love_____"she said sighing softly,

I rolled my eyes,

"That still is not enough reason to become unhinged like this you know he just loved his parents so much that he couldn't go behind their backs for you____even for you! " I said looking at her seriously,

"I was ready to do anything for Karth but he just let go and so I ran away after Paz killed my parents and I met Sadan father of Zod he was lonely and would do anything just to get a human girl attention he was just what I needed to launch an attack on the Hnerez tribe and it worked out because I got Karth's attention but then he saw the etocrite queen as a curse he didn't know it was me because I changed my face, " she said getting up and walking around, wait wait_____she cahnged her face how?!

"You changed your face? " I asked confused and she turned giving me a look I didn't understand,

"Well I didn't love Sadan even Zod should knows that and I also know he hates me but well that is life I don't care I am etocrite queen, so anyway I knew if I changed my face the time my husband would attack would be perfect because Karth wouldn't recognize me, but I could see it in his eyes yesterday he recognized me I know it, " she said smiling down at me,

Wait yesterday how long was I out for?!

"I love Karth and I know he loves me too you my dear were just a distraction! " she said out loud,

"That is where you are wrong he may not have told me about you two but he loves me me and me alone dear monster, " I said and she glared at me,

She nodded to one of the creatures and they started approaching me I was honestly scared,

"Let's see how long it takes him to come here dear Nen, " she said laughing out loud and I glared at her

....

KARTH (NARRATION)

I have been in my office since yesterday when we arrived back at the tower, I closed myself off from everyone I couldn't stop but think of that voice it has been so long since I last heard it, I almost forgot about it, Tenia she and I were seeing each other back when life was daisies and no wars, things were just too good until I told my father about us I thought it would help the conflict between the Hnerez and the Leza but it did more harm than good, in fact it angered my father even more,

He told me if I ever saw Tenia again he would throw me out of the tribe and I believed him he never took back a promise, and Tenia's parents refused her to see me too, I told her I couldn't go behind my parents' back and she just walked away without a word, the last I heard of her is when we were told her whole family was massacred so I thought she was dead and I moved on with my life, developed feelings for Nen and life was good,

Until yesterday it has been hours and I still can't sleep I always wondered why the etocrite queen was obsessed with me from what I heard but I never really took much interest, all I saw was her with her creature husband when they attacked us all those years ago,

"Karth I have some news, " I heard Noth at the door,

I got up immediately and opened the door and he rushed in, I looked at him expecting something and he looked at me confused,

"Oh I got nothing it just you weren't getting out and I got worried about you, " he said and I sighed facing the window,

"So are you ready to tell me about the Dargoth queen Karth? " Noth said and I looked at him well glared at him,

He just looked at me blankly and I sighed,

"Well she and I were lovers a long time ago, " I said finally and his eyes got wide and he looked confused,

"You were still very young then well I met her when her family came over here to discuss a way forward to better our tribes because we were having trouble back then so father invited them here and that is when I saw her she was simple and had a beautiful smile I was drawn to it, so we talked and we even kissed and she left saying we could see each other again and we did, over and over again until we decied to let the leaders know about us we thought they would be happy but it definitely backfired they forbade us father said he would throw me out of the tribe if I saw Tenia again and I told her she shot pissed because she had decided to defy her own parents for our love but I couldn't fight back, I couldn'trun away with her, " I said as I leaned on the window,

"So you are saying you couldn't recognize her when she attacked the tribe years ago? " Noth asked confused,

"Honestly I didn't because she looked like someone else she wasn't Tenia, " I said and Noth chuckled and I turned and looked at him, what is funny about this situation,

"I am sorry Karth but come on isn't it sad you couldn't recognize her what are saying she changed her face or something, " Noth asked laughing a bit,

"I am saying that she changed her face I don't know how but she did she didn't look like that, " I said and Noth looked worried,

"Yes Noth she changed her face and if she killed our parents to get to me what do you think she will do to Nen?" I asked stressed and Noth sighed.
