Future of Darkness

Chapter 1: A Dark Plan is a Foot

A dark ghostly figure stood out of a balcony looking out into the moonless night of Friendship, Maine. His ghostly hands held the metal rod, as it was his afterlife depending on it from falling to the ground. "Damn this ghost cancer! Why must I suffer this weakness! I am the most feared ghost in Friendship, Maine. Damn this to hell!" The dark ghost yelled out loud.

Then a young ghost came up from behind him and put her hand on his right shoulder. "My Lord you must rest. I have told you time and time again that you are too we-" Before she could finish the word the dark ghost turned around and put his lips onto hers. The two began to kiss with so much force that a fleshie would not have survive this type of kissing. As the dark ghost deepens the kiss on his lover his ghostly body began to shake. The young ghost pulled away from him for fear that he was being force to cross over. "My Love you must come to bed. I will give you the shot to help you with the pain." The ghost said. She took his right arm over her left arm and began to go to the large king size bed that they shared.

As she got her lover into the bed he had pulled her closer to him. "Samantha my love hurry. Get the shot the pain is too much for me to take. Hurry my love hurry." The dark ghost said with his face filled with pain. Samantha flew as fast as her ghostly body would allow her to get the shot that she had made that night. She knew that this was going to be a long night of her lord and love being in pain. She knew that they were not going to get any sleep to night. She hatred thinking this, but she was not going to do this anymore. To night was the last for her. She did not want to leave him, but she could not take it anymore. She had to come up with something to help the love of her afterlife. As she left the lab were she had made the shot two ghosts came out of their rooms.

"Michael, Jacob I need you. Our Lord is in pain. I need you two to hold him down for me as I put the shot into his body." Samantha said to them. Then they heard a roar of pain coming from their Lords room.

"Samantha hurry my body is beginning to shake again!" The Lord screamed for her. Without looking at each other they flew into the room. What they saw scared them to life. Their Lords body was shaking horribly and there was a light coming to force him to cross over. The two male ghosts flew to their Lord and held their Lords arms and put their ghostly bodies on top of his to hold him down.

"Here you are my Lord! The shot should work quickly." Samantha said putting the shot into his right arm and pushing the black liquid into his body. As soon as Samantha put all the dark liquid into his arm the light disappeared as fast as it came. His body began to stop shaking and his face that was once filled with pain was know gone from his face. Samantha smiled that her lover was still here but was now upset that was not going to stop until she had found the cure.

"I cannot do this anymore my Lord. You must find another soul to devour to give me time to find a cure for the ghost cancer. I am too tried of these sleepless nights hearing you in pain. I just cannot do it anymore." Samantha said with her head bowed low from other failure. The ghost looked at her and knew that he had asked too much from her.

"I know Samantha I know. But every soul that I choose to devour has not last for as long as two months. I must have a pure soul to devour. I think that will be enough for you to find the cure for this damn cancer. But there is no soul that is pure in this damn town." The ghost said to her. Samantha looked at him for a moment and she had a look in her eyes that her lord knew she had come up with a plan. "What is it Samantha? What have you got into your head?" The ghost asked her.

"Well what about that friendly ghost you told me about. What was the name again my love?" She asked him smiling. He rolled his eyes at her. The two ghosts had gotten off their Lord so he could fix himself in the bed to look at his girlfriend. He did not understood what his lover was getting at.

"Casper, Casper McFadden from Friendship, Maine, he live at an old manor called Whipstaff that was destroyed about ten years ago from an earthquake. But he disappeared 21-years ago. No one has seen him since December 25, 2010 when the old fleshie called Dr. Harvey had to leave the manor due to not paying the morgue on time. So what do you want me to do dear? Knock on every ghost's door in the town asking them about the friendly brat. Not many ghosts know who Casper McFadden is. Most of them have crossed over. Even his own uncles, The Ghostly Trio, crossed over around about the same time that he went missing. I do not understand what you want to do with a ghost that may not even be in Maine anymore." He said to his lover. He knew Casper from school and was a loser that no one really hanged out with him. The only ones that did was his cousin Spooky, and Spooky's girlfriend Poil. But he had devoured Spooky's soul about a year after Casper went missing. Poil was now living with him but she did not care for him. Well who could blame her for what he did to Spooky. To his knowledge Poil was the only one that knew Casper the friendly ghost, as he liked to call himself.

"I know he is missing. It would be pointless to try to find a ghost that no one has seen for 21 years. But why not go into the past 21 years ago to get him my love." Samantha said trying to get her lover to understand what she was telling him. He looked at her for a moment and then he understood what she was saying.

"Yes you are right. We could just use the time machine that those stupid fleshies made to stop me from taking over this town. But who would go my love? I need you here with me to make sure that the pain is under control. I am too weak to go myself and I am afraid that the trio will destroy me in a second. I cannot send Poil, she would just tell Casper to hide and try to change history." He said more to himself then anyone around him. Michael looked at his Lord with longing in his eyes.

"I will go my Lord!" Michael said with a bow too low for his own good. The Lord rolled his eyes at him and then looked at his lover.

"Anyone but him." He said to her.

"Now dear give Mike a chance. He may make up for the mistakes that he made in the past." Samantha said to him. The Lord was thinking that it could get him out of his hair for the night. But what about Jacob? The brat did not go anywhere without his brother. He could send the boy to make sure that the kid kept his brother in line.

He signed knowing that he lost this battle as the pain began to come back again. "Fine! You will go Michael and Jacob will go with you. All you have to do is wait until everyone is asleep in the manor. Be careful not to make any noise the trio will wake up to anything. Casper sleeps in a room with a fleshie named Kat Harvey. Samantha will make you a potion that will make Casper unable to fly and will put him in a coma. Make this fast I cannot take this pain anymore. Dear when you have done the potion for them make more of the shot this is going to be a painful night for me." The Lord said laying down trying to stop the pain from coming to his body. Samantha went up to him and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "Oh and put in this date my dear. April 20, 2010 at the time of 6:30pm. That should work for Michael and Jacob." Her lover said to her. She nodded her head at him and told the boys to follow her to the lab.

In the lab she made the potion for Michael. The potion was a dark red color that was different from their Lords shots. "Now Mike listen and listen good. You only give him one drop of this. It will make him unable to fly but he will still be able to talk. I do not want you to use it all up. If you do that he may be useless to our Lord. Do you understand?" Samantha asked him. Michael nodded his head yes. He was so happy that his beloved Lord was giving him another chance to prove his loyalty. Samantha shook her head at him then looked at Jacob. "Please Jacob watch and make sure that your brother does not miss this up. Be careful and good luck. When you get the boy call me so I can open the portal to the time machine so that you can come home." Samantha said giving them a cell phone to call her.

She began to put in the time that her Lord told her about in the machine. The date was April 20, 2010 at around 6:30pm. "Please do not miss this up Mike. I will not be able to stop our Lord if he wants to kill you for missing things up again." Samantha said to him.

Michael looked at her and smiled. "I will not miss up Samantha. You will see I will make you proud." Michael said taking Jacob's hand as the time machine opened a portal and the boys flew into it.

The portal closed with a click leaving Samantha alone in the lab. Samantha began to make the shots for her Lord. "I hope you make me proud cousin. I just hope you do." She said to herself.
