Writing The White Walls

[Aberinkula]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]This is my latest attempt at a story... again. This time I'm going for a blend of drama and fantasy, with a little humor as well. I like this story so far, it's actually pretty funny considering the main character. I've whipped up a little prologue as well as a quick little tidbit on the main characters. I really like this story, and I think I may even make an RPG as a side-story. That is still undetermined.

I will be updating this part of the thread with different character bios as well as other information.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[COLOR="gray"][B][U] Warning: [/U][/B][I]The following story may contain harsh violance and language, as well as sexual themes.[/I]

[INDENT]Many years ago demons ruled the world. One demon named Andras was vicious, evil and murderous. He commanded legions of demons and monsters in his conquest for the world. After years of reign, the Great Demon Lord Beelzamue overthrew him and cast him away. His spirit wandered the earth and soon his soul became pure. After the age of demons was over, his spirit housed itself in the soul of a child every 1000 years. Around the age of 16, the child with his soul inside them, gained extraordinary powers they would use to save the world.

For over 5000 years, Andras went through 5 different bodies. Every person he was housed in was male. But now, in the year 2010 the new soul of his was quite different. Darren Lee Amory was a young boy living in the town of Threwst with his friends Chloe and Jason. Unlike the 5 warriors before him, he wasn't interested in having children with any female.

Andras, despite being pure hearted, had an undeniable thirst for woman, which came as an upset to young Darren's homosexuality. Darren learned about Andras when he became thirteen, he didn't know the name of the demon inside him until he became 16. His 16th birthday was the day everything changed, and Darren as well as Chloe, lost everything they had in a terrible catastrophe. Now the three wander the country-side searching for their old friend Jason.

What seems like a small search for an old friend, is much more than it seems. Darren, Chloe and their companion Ryan have been thrown into something, much, much larger than anticipated.[/INDENT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="gray"][B][U]Darren Lee Amory - 17 Years Old[/U][/B]
[INDENT]A homosexual boy born with the spirit of a demon inside him. The demon inside Darren known as 'Andras.' Andras was once a conquerer of the demon world, he was known as vicious and ruthless until the day the Demon-God threw his reign off. Ever since than Andras' demonic heart became pure and now every 1000 years, he is housed within a child to help save the world. Andras, while being one of pure heart now, still has a terrible thirst for women, which comes as a problem to Darren's homosexuality. So once and a while Darren suddenly urges for woman, yet he is able to sustain his 'false' relationship with Chloe without any catastrophe. Darren grew up in the town of Threwst until one day the town burned down, he suspects his past friend, Jason to be the blame. Darren has the ability to see small white windows or 'Walls' as they're often called, that allow him to see the future of people, but he only sees their future before their death, so he usually ends up having to save that person so the future he sees in them is possible. Darren is a funny, and mostly happy teenager. Darren isn't very strong and Andras doesn't take lightly to racism against Darren's homosexuality. Darren also possesses the power of fire. Darren keeps in contact with his parents, the only other people still alive to have lived in Threwst, they travel the world and are high-class archaeologists.[/INDENT]

[B][U]Chloe Leonna Clarice - 16 Years Old[/U][/B]
[INDENT]Darren's friend, and sister-like companion. She is the only person left in Darren's hometown, so they ventured on and moved. Chloe acts as Darren's girlfriend around some people to hide his homosexuality as Darren is easily angered by racism. Chloe isn't very quiet and she can be very awkward at times. Darren often complains that they sometimes kiss in public areas by calling it 'unnatural and just plain wrong.' Chloe is able to control water, and often uses that to heal herself and Darren. Chloe is really not interested in relationships because the three wander around a lot. She is the only one who hasn't developed a wall ability, but with her ability to control water, it is thought that she may possess a wall power. Sometimes when Andras comes out in Darren, she beats him when he womanizes. Chloe takes offense when people open doors for her or refuse to fight her because she is a woman. Chloe is often the glue that holds Ryan together emotionally, and keeps Darren out of trouble. Chloe's mother died before she turned 10 and she lived with her grandmother, yet she died during the fire that burned down Threwst. Who and where her father is, is currently unknown[/INDENT]

[B][U]Ryan John Veinheim - 18 Years Old[/U][/B]
[INDENT]Darren's best friend. Ryan dislikes most people. For some reason he doesn't talk to anyone but Darren and Chloe. Ryan, although straight, is known to be somewhat smitten my Darren and Chloe and has tried to make moves on them.' He is very attractive. Not much is known about him. Ryan is able to see walls of green that allow him to see people's desires. While he doesn't talk much, he talks to Darren and Chloe quite often. The reason he lacks emotion and doesn't talk is because he saw his own true desires and doesn't want to become the evil image he's seen in his visions. Unlike Darren and Chloe, Ryan doesn't use his powers often, yet he possesses the power of darkness. Ryan was found in the city of Rosenberg, Darren discovered him following him and Chloe out of town and picked him up, that was about 2 months ago. Ryan lived in a shelter and has no knowledge of his parents.[/INDENT]

[B][U]Jason Dillinger - 17 Years Old[/U][/B]
[INDENT]Darren's old friend, and first love. He used to be Darren's friend until he discovered powers of his. His powers made him conceited and he now wishes to converse with no one as he sees them as low-lives. Jason has the power to see 'black walls' of light that show him people's fears. He finds this superior to Darren's ability and now wants nothing to do wit him. Jason wanders around aimlessly searching for power, yet truly he is weak, Jason has the power of ice. Jason killed his parents before leaving Threwst.[/INDENT][/COLOR]

[COLOR="silver"][B][U][SIZE="4"][CENTER]WALL POWERS AND THE ELEMENTS[/CENTER][/SIZE][/U][/B][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Gray"][INDENT]In this alternative version of our world, some people are born with the power to see walls of light. They look like windows and usually hover around people. People with the ability to see windows can also use elemental magic. walls come in various colors and shades, and the powers of each person are different, some even the same as others. Mostly, however, the walls show the person who can see them, the owners personal thoughts and even their futures. Other different possibilities are possible as well. There are a few basic elements too. Wall and elemental powers are all genetic and passed on mostly by females, and rarely, males.[/INDENT]

[COLOR="Silver"][SIZE="4"][U][B]DEMONS[/B][/U][/SIZE][/CENTER][/COLOR]

[COLOR="Gray"][INDENT]Millions of years before mankind, demons ruled the world as well as the universe, some as small as ants, and even some as large as stars. One demon, known as Beelzamue, was the demon-king. He was the god of demons and was never seen by anything or anyone, not even his own kind. Now demons are still alive, but not as numerous or even as large as the ones so many years ago.

Some people are chosen to protect places from demons, these people are known as "The Crusaders." They area special branch of government that deal with demons and other creatures. Demons come in many forms, but most of them now aren't as strong as Andras.[/INDENT][/COLOR]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]Well, thanks for taking the time to read this, Chapter 1 is still in progress and it will be a while before I post it.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Kre]

Looks pretty interesting. An RP as a side story would be pretty cool as well. But, it's got a very unique setting should I say? Or maybe it's concept, either way can't wait to read the first part.

[Aberinkula]

[COLOR="DarkSlateGray"][SIZE="1"]As promised, here is chapter one. This is my second version of this chapter, the first being nothing more but a draft, thus here is the better version, for this version I strived for a little more of a lighter feel to it, to get the story going at a good mood. I went from 3rd person to 1st person, which I seem to have more luck with.

I'm in the middle of Chapter two right now, which will come in two parts because I'm planning on having it long. But I might split it into two sperate chapters. Anyways, enjoy The White Walls![/SIZE][/COLOR]

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Silver"]CHAPTER 1: THE TALE OF 3 TRAVELERS[/COLOR][/SIZE][/CENTER][/FONT]

[COLOR="Gray"][SIZE="1"]Our search for Jason just hit the one year mark, after looking and looking, Chloe, Ryan and I gained little progress in finding him. Once and a while we heard about him, but never saw him. On my sixteenth birthday, my 3rd day dating Jason; he burned down the town killing everyone except me and Chloe. He was normal and happy for 2 days into our relationship, than he became cold. The last time I saw him was when Chloe dragged me out of the fire. He was just over the horizon, looking back at us, a smile of madness across his face.

A few weeks later, as me and Chloe walked from town to town to find a new home, we decided to search for Jason. Four months into our search, we met our friend Ryan in the city of Greensboro. He just followed us out of town, and we took him in. He doesn't talk much, but he's pretty open to me and Chloe. He too has the ability to see walls, he can see people's inner-most desires, desires even the person isn't aware of. He saw his own, and stays quiet. Whatever he saw, he wont tell us what it is.

As for me, I can see walls too. white ones that allow me to see people's futures. For some reason after the fire the only time I see walls is when the person is about to die, so it's my job to save that person. Chloe, who is like my sister, doesn't have the ability to see walls, but she can control water, so it's possible she has one.

Anything else about me you ask? Well, I have the spirit of a womanizing demon inside me, and it doesn't help that I'm gay too... so it comes as a bit of a problem. Chloe thinks it's funny though, she picks on me all the time, but she means well. Ryan for some reason, shows some interest in Chloe... and me! Sometimes he'll try making a move on us. Chloe doesn't see a problem with it, but I do.

So far, our adventure hasn't been very fun, or bad either. Every now and then, a demon pops up, or someone's life is at stake and I have to save them. But nothing odd yet. Now we find ourselves in the small town of Evenclera. It's been at least 3 days since I last saw even a small glimpse of technology, it seems like forever since I've been on a computer, nor have I seen a television in a while. I haven't had the time for anything like that in a while.

Chloe was walking next to me, we were by a small little river so whenever she got too hot, she used her abilities to splash us with water, just by waving her hand, water came out and splashed us. It sparkled in the sun, which was kind of cool. Ryan didn't like getting wet that much, which was sad because he looked pretty good all wet. He was pretty handsome, dark hair over his left-eye. He always wore tight fitting clothing and he had a strange necklace on all the time too. Even when he took showers, he didn't take it off. Not that I watch him take showers or anything, I'm not THAT perverted...

Oh sorry, I'm getting sidetracked by the image. Anyways, the river that ran through the town suddenly turned the other way and ran off to the outskirts. We walked over a small bridge and entered the plaza. There were a few stores here and there, they mostly sold food, all the fancy-shmancy stores were on the other side of town. We were just out for a stroll. Surprisingly, Chloe hasn't been very talkative today. Neither has Ryan, but that's just him being him.

Suddenly, Chloe turned to her right and stopped. She looked up and down the building in front of her. It was a small restaurant, it looked nice so she started walking in. [B]"Hey guys, we should grab a bite to eat before we leave town." [/B]she said smiling. I nodded, so Ryan and I walked in too.

We sat down at the table and looked at the menu. Chloe started giggling and she looked at me, I was sitting with Ryan, who as usual, decided to rest his head on my shoulder. [B]"Hey... Darren!"[/B] Chloe said to me with her usual smile on her face... I knew something was coming. [B]"Are you going to order the rainbow trout?" [/B]She asked. I didn't get it at first, but suddenly I grasped the joke. Instead of just laughing I decided to retaliate.

[B]"Yeah I think I will, you know, I've never had fish asshole."[/B] I said smiling. Chloe's laugh suddenly stopped and she shook her head.

[B]"Men are so nasty, gay or not." [/B]She replied, I started laughing my butt off. Ryan's eyes widened and he decided to just rest his head on the table. The waiter came over and took our order. I watched him walk away slowly, "nice view in this place!" I said smiling. Chloe turned and looked at the waiter.

"Couldn't agree more!" She said. We both smiled. We loved to joke around, it allowed us time to be happy, despite the fact that just a year ago today, everyone we knew died. My parents are still alive, but they're traveling around the world to help study the past of walls and elemental powers. Chloe's father went AWOL on her and her mother died. She had to deal with her grandma's death the day of the fire... we left everything and started our new life. Ryan lived his sister, she didn't know he left with us.

"So, today's the anniversery..." I said as the waiter gave us our drinks. Chloe nodded and wiped her eyes.

[B]"Yup... it's been a year. I know you miss Jason."[/B] Chloe looked into my eyes and smiled. If I was straight, she'd be the girl I'd take. She always makes me happy when I'm sad.

[B]"Yeah, the last great memory with him was the night we started dating. It was a good day-"[/B]

[B]"Who was the catcher?"[/B] Chloe asked, we both laughed.

[B]"Anyways, I just hope we find him soon. Then we can start our new life."[/B]

[B]"I haven't heard from Andras in a while, what happened?"[/B]

The waiter came with our food, we said our thanks and started eating. I ordered the rainbow trout of coarse. "[B]Well you see, I've decided to keep him in my subconscious for a bit. He needs to rest so my powers can grow. Besides he might hit on you." [/B]I laughed. I looked outside the window, the sky was clear, and the sun was setting beyond the horizon, a beautiful red enveloped the sky like a carpet of crimson. Next to me was Ryan, his black hair over his eyes. His lips shut. He didn't order anything, I usually shared my food with him. His eyes opened suddenly, and he sat up. He turned to me and smiled, I smiled back of coarse. Than, almost as fast as his awakening, he fell back asleep on my shoulder.

Ryan had an odd way of showing his friendship, he was an odd card... but a good friend. I sort of have a thing for him, but I'd rather not. I don't think he's ready to handle someone. I don't know why I think this way though. He didn't say much about himself, so all we know is what we've seen. I looked at Chloe, she was sitting near the window looking at the sun set. She was finished eating, but I wasn't. Instead of finishing I took my food and put it in my bag for Ryan. I stood up and scratched my ear. Chloe looked at me and she got up too. Ryan woke up after I nudged him. He got up, and we all left.

When we reached the edge of town, it was finally dark out. The stars covered the sky, and the silky white that was scattered across the cosmos looked like fresh milk. It was still warm, a small breeze flowing by made it very comfortable. As we stepped outside the limits of town a dark presence crept up on us. I looked at Chloe, Ryan was very susceptible at this kind of thing, so he stood in front alert. The energy came from a few miles ahead.

I noticed the energy for some reason it felt familiar. It was very dark and vicious feeling, but for me I felt relieved and warm. It had to be his energy. I started walking ahead, my intent was clear. I had to reach the source before it disappeared. I started running ahead of the other two.

[B]"Hey Darren!" [/B]Chloe shouted. I looked back.

[B]"Guys I think it's his energy!"[/B] I shouted. Chloe's eyes widened and Ryan's did as well. They both started chasing after me. The energy started to feel a bit stronger, than weaker. It fluctuated every few seconds in an uneven pattern. After a few minutes of running I stopped and fell to the ground. The energy got stronger and stronger as I lay. I could feel it, running through my body. My head ached with energy, I wanted so bad to run after it, to find it's source... see if it's him.

Chloe lay down next to me and looked into my face. [B]"You okay there Mr. Graceful?" [/B]she asked, I flipped onto my back and grabbed at her.

[B]"You know, I've never been attracted to a woman before like I am to you!"[/B] I said, she rolled her eyes and stood up.

[B]"Darren's okay Ryan."[/B] Chloe said shaking her head. I could hear Ryan laughing, which was unusual. He stood over me and squatted down, his ass planted right on my face. I swear to god if he-

Chloe started laughing hysterically. Ryan stood up, walked over to hear and gave her a high five. The bastard farted on my face. [B]"Thanks Ryan, I love you too." [/B]I stood up and took a deep breath of fresh air. I walked over to Ryan and gave him a hug. [B]"Good one man, I've taught you well!"[/B] I smiled. He did too. I looked over at Chloe... I was happy as long as these two were with me.

The energy disappeared of coarse, but I could still feel it... I think it was him. We all started walking toward the moon. I could feel something in my heart, and for the first time in my life, I saw my own wall, I saw tomorrow... I just smiled. I had a feeling I wouldn't be dying in the middle of a field. It was a good omen...

Or maybe we were all headed for trouble... but whatever it was, we could face it. I looked up at the sky, a shooting star zoomed through the sky like a lightning bug on fire. The moon shined on the sky, making a halo of light around it. I looked to the horizon, trees off in the distance hid lights of some sort. I guess that's where we were headed next.[/SIZE][/COLOR]
