"Who are you?" Luke said quietly.

"I am Damian," he said, "the soon to be ruler of this world and your new leader."

Luke looked up at Damian. "What do you want?"

"Just you Luke," he replied, "you don't realize yet your importance. Mortals have suppressed their evil for so long. It is time for it to be released."

"I'll never join you and I'll never help you," Luke said.

"You don't have a choice," he said, "there is a power even greater than I am."

"What's that?" Luke asked.

"You," he said. He turned to leave the room. "Prepare him for the ceremony," he shouted to his minions.

Luke was unchained and forced into a black robe. As Luke was lead down a dark corridor, he realized he, like Mike, had no choice.

Luke entered a room lit with torches. Several of the creatures surrounded the room. There was no escape.

Mike was being held between two creatures. Luke was then forced into a circle in the middle of the room, surrounded by candles.

Then the room turned silent.

"For too long evil has been stopped from roaming the land,"Damian said, "finally on this night we shall have our vengence."

Then all the creatures chanted an unearthly chant. A white light filled the circle Luke was in.

Within the light Luke felt intense pain all over his body. His thoughts were of nothing he'd never seen. He saw pain and suffering unlike he'd ever seen. The pain grew worse and he got down on his knees.

"Mike....."he said, "help me.........please!"

Mike struggled to get to Luke.

"Please, Mike!" he screamed.

Luke grew weaker and weaker by the minute.

"Mike.....please!"his scream sounded like a whisper.

Mike burst free from the creatures. Then all of a sudden a bolt of lightening hit Mike.

Mike!" Luke cried.

Luke rose to his feet and struggled to face Damian. Wind swirling around him.

"Your first mistake was taking Mike and your second mistake was taking me. Consider this your last mistake," Luke said defiantly.

Luke closed his eyes and focused on anything but the pain.

The wind stopped swirling and the white light turned a soft shimmering blue. The blue light filled the room.

"No!"Damian and the other creatures faded away, leaving only their scorched shadows.

Luke fell to the ground and the light stopped. He lifted himself off the ground and looked around.

"Mike?"he said looking around.

"Over here Luke,"Mike answered.

Luke turned around and saw Mike. Mike was floating and engulfed with a blue shimmering light.

"You did it Luke,"Mike said, "you set me free."

"Mike,"Luke said, "you can't go."

"I have to,"he said, "but remember we'll always be friends."

He pulled out the chain necklace from his shirt.

"I have to go now,"Mike said, "maybe we'll see each other another time. Goodbye Luke."

Mike shimmered away. Luke looked at his chain necklace and walked out of the tomb.

"Goodbye Mike,"Luke whispered, as he looked up to the sky.

Nobody goes to Red Valley Cemetary anymore, at night. For some people say, the evil isn't truly gone.
