Dawn- An age of Darkness

Two men were face to face- neither human. They were alone on the rooftop. The sun had set long ago and the sky was clouded with stars.

"I met him. He does seem to have potential." One of them said. He had a hood on and red dots- probably eyes, illuminated features of his face; scars everywhere.

"Perhaps I ought to give him a visit." The other man- rather a demon, swirled his wine glass and drink a sip. His eyes were a pure shade of crimson. His horns, however, looked like something straight from hell. Maybe, he was from hell. "To think…" the demon paused. "If nothing is done, everything would be trampled. The gods are already-" He drank more of his wine. "There's nothing left to stop this. The summons was mostly failures. Two of them show promise but… They won't be enough." It was almost as though the demon was lamenting something.

The hooded man let out a chuckle. "How amusing, a demon worried for the world?" He burst into laughter.

"It does sound hypocritical doesn't it? But what about you? Weren't you the one who started all of this and then abandoned everything?" The demon admitted his own failures. However he wasn't going to let this pass either, as he confronted the hooded man.

Chuckles filled the air. "I suppose you are right. But it wasn't me who started this, no. The one who started everything, is sleeping in the ocean. And I hope he stays there." His voice had a tint of rage mixed within. The man stared up at the sky. There was a moon up. It was cleaved in three pieces and all three were visible. "It is better that he is gone. If he stayed up, everything would have perished." He was reminiscing old times.

"Hmm…. I suppose. But this threat is on another scale… can't you make the gods-" The moment the demon attempted to say it, his voice got stuck in his throat.

"You don't get anything do you? Humans were the ones who betrayed us. And only humans can amend their mistakes." The man corrected his hood. "Isn't that why you bothered summoning them in the first place?"

The demon just stared at the man before bursting out in laughter. "For now we can only see how things play out I guess. It is getting interesting though." He emptied his glass. "And I suppose you are right." He finally admitted.

"Indeed. And that boy might actually surpass both of these two."

Both of them looked out to the city below and laughed together. Perhaps they were friends; perhaps they were just working towards a common goal. But one thing was for certain, this world considered both of them, evil.

"Don't get killed now." The hooded man raised his hand and vanished.

"I should say that to you." The demon mumbled.

Now that his glass was empty, he just stared at the sky. The moon in this world vanished thousands of years ago. But in the demon realm, it was still here. No one knew why, or perhaps no one ever questioned it.. What will you do? The demon's thoughts swirled and made an orchestra in his mind as he gazed at the stars and the moon.
