~A/N: This is an idea I had recently. Its kind of a story of the future,
with fantasy mixed into it. I hope you all enjoy it, and that this story
will actually get finished.~
Darkest of Night
Prologue
It's the year 2145. Flying cars, cloning, cryogenic freezing. Skyscrapers
that reach up to five times as high as any in the beginning of the 21st
century. Data pads, computers that are light, compact, and can be carried
anywhere, vidphones. Blasters, speeders, spaceships. Technology is the way
the people of the 21st century dreamed it to be.
But with this technology is a great hardship. Except for the large cities
spread out, the world is mainly a cruel wasteland, destroyed long ago by a
great war. It was not a war between man; it was a war between man and
demons. Demons, vampires, witches, wizards, lycans, shape shifters, and
many other supernatural creatures have been discovered. The humans
discovered the portal to Otherworld, where most of these creatures lived,
and had opened it. At first, humans tried to explore this new world, and
find out about the creatures, but the demons weren't agreeable. Many humans
were slaughtered for daring to come into Otherworld. Finally, in 2090, the
humans launched a war against the demons. The demons pushed the war to take
place in the human world, and most damage happened there. The humans lost
miserably; 1 billion humans were killed, and afterwards, when the demons
took control, another 2 billion were killed as well. During the war, humans
were foolish enough to attack with bombs and nulear weapons, and their
world was damaged severely.
The demons took over and left only half of the humans left alive. One
fourth of the humans were enslaved, as the demons viewed humans as weak,
inferior creatures. Some humans managed to escape into space, using the
primitive spaceships they had built. No one has heard from them. Other
humans formed a underground resistance, trying to fight the demon
oppression. Most humans that are not enslaved live in their cities, trying
to survive with the other creatures living with them, and with the damaged
Earth. The Earth is no longer capable of growing many plants and many
animals are either extinct or unable to survive in the lands near the
cities. Vampires, lycans, and the like mingle with humans whenever
possible, but they were unaffected by the war, and do not obey the demons.
Demon Lords rule over the human cities, as a form of government, and they
have had all books on demon mythology, even manga that had stories,
destroyed.
Recently, the resistance has started leaving the cities, and forming their
own cities in the wasteland. One group of these people have recently been
searching through old, partially destroyed cities for clues as to how to
fight the demons. The area they have searched proved to have many bodies of
frozen people, people that were frozen alive either before or during the
war. The group is working frantically to unfreeze these people, and
hopefully gain help from them. The people from the earliest period that
they have found were two girls, both who seemed to be from around 2010 or
earlier; both girls had looks of terror on their faces, and one girl
clutched a crumbled piece of paper in her hands. After many hours, the
group of humans managed to extract the paper and decipher what it said.
They were only to decipher parts of it:
"Portal long sealed shall soon be opened
And the Creatures of Night will come
Mixing with the Creatures of Day.
A great war between them will cause great bloodshed
And Night will defeat Day in this twilight soon to come."
~A/N: Well, that was the prologue.after that is the first part of the
story, where we get to learn.ah, forget it. Just read the next chapters
