Rein of Terror ...Part 1

By RubyXero

Dancing in the shadows,
darkness
One with the night.
This night...slithering
upon this. victim.
Unknown as of yet.
but soon. very soon.
Be patient. Wait.
When the time comes then I'll
...and it's now.
Silent as death,
chilling. even to me
Though a smile still covers
beneath this mask.
Right behind her. now. soft.
sneaky. steady. and
quick blow to the head.
ahhh...she faints.
in my arms.
out...

I am dreaming. Nightmare.
Wake up...stop this.
And I do...slowly
Opening my eyes...
What? my head is throbbing
why?
All i see is black
no objects, no life.
How big or small
is this cold, dark chamber.
Frightened.
I am terrified. Why me?
How did I get here?
What about my family?
Where...wait. What is that...
like whispering.
faint yet chillingly close.
"whose there?" a
dim light...and in the corner...
What the fuck?!?
A...being. crouched down
clothed in black. masked...
like a bird masquerade
only as dark as the rest...
Its moving toward me!
Like a spider
crawling...
with hands and feet. legs bent.
no. No. NO!!!

"she reins with no mercy
she feeds on defeat"

Hmmm. terrified child.
excellent.
"I see you are awake now.
Lovely."
Kitty cat. Scared
little mouse.
So...puny. weak.
"I am feeling... artistic
today. you are such
a pretty
little specimen
a perfect.
test.subject."
(tiny laugh escapes)
"lets see how you look
in.side.out."

Humming sounds of beauty
like songs of graceful demons...
This lovely...victim. will crumble.
I chain her hands.
and feet.
And tie her to the ceiling.
Like a dark surgeon...
I grab my scalpel.

    Now that, was fucking awesome! That freaking took the feelings The Pit and the Pendulum and fucking beefed 'em up tenfold. I read that and I was actually able to taste the fear. Beautifully done.
