`` you're here to take her are n't you?'' ryan whispered to the figure in black looming behind him at the door. 
 
 As if said only through a light wind, the shadow responded. `` yes.'' 
 
 Ryan turned to the figure. `` What's it like? you know, to watch people die?'' The air stood still. Ryans gaze returned to his mother, sleeping on the couch. `` She loved him, you know. Regardless of his flaws and quirks and anger she loved him.'' 
 
 The air again moved. `` I remember'' 
 
 Ryan stood to his feet and walked boldly to the figure and shouted stabbing toward it with his finger `` Did you remember the blood on the walls? Do you remember seeing kids- fifteen, sixteen, seventeen years old SCREAMING for help?'' 
 
 a dark feeling of pleasure inhabited the room accompanied by a subtle laugh. 
 
 Ryan's face boiled red with rage but was interrupted by his mother moving her arm. she said something incoherently and fell back asleep seemingly mid-word. He continued slightly calmer: `` They asked me questions, they asked me what i knew. Do you know what it's like to be sixteen, all alone, and asked if you know a secret that they will never tell you? To come home and find that my own mother ca n't even talk to me? I watched her stare at the dishes for 6 hours with the water running and not a single motion!'Where is kenny mom?''when is kenny coming home, mom?''' Tears streamed down his expressionless face. ``'why did they take me, mom?''I dont understand, mom!'' 
 
 `` stop'' 
 
 `` I thought you enjoyed the suffering of others! I thought you loved your job! I thought you enjoyed watching me frantically search for him to keep him safe when you knew full well he was the one who killed them!'' Ryan gasped for breath and struggled to calm his breath. `` He killed them. My own damn brother killed them. He was never picked on, he was never abuse. He was n't even unhappy. My 17 year old brother killed them and himself for the goddamn fun of-'' Ryans face went from red to white. He looked at the shadow. `` Y-y-you have n't taken her yet.'' Silence. `` you're.... you're...'' 
 
 `` Say it'' 
 
 `` You're kenny...'' 
 
 `` and?'' 
 
 `` and... i'm dead'' Ryan looked around the corner to see down the hall into the bathroom and saw his own body convulse on the ground from the drugs that he had also slipped into his mother's wine. `` NO! It was out of mercy!'' He begged. 
 
 `` It's too late, welcome to hell, brother!'' 
 
 Wind and lightning erupted in the room and the shadow faded into a corporeal figure. The features of a 17 year old boy manifested. `` finally'' kenny whispered before immediately dissolving into dust. 
 
 Immediately, Ryan's hands and feet began to disappear. `` No no no no no!'' he screamed as his entire body became engulfed in darkness. 
 
 His attempts to scream where silenced. Dread, pain, and misery overwhelmed him. This was his own darkness. This was his own doing. He needed reap until he found a successor whose darkness could replace his own.

 That... that became.... kinda dark.
