THE RISE OF LORD DARK

Born in God's Abode , he was quite a free bird. He was the first mortal ever born in the God's Abode. His brothers and sisters were much stronger than him, that even when he learnt all the fighting arts he still could not beat even the weakest sister. Though he was a mortal, he was granted immortality by his father. One day he was staring down of God's Abode and saw many twinkling stars and nebulas. he wanted to resude there. his father saw him peeking downwards. He asked his father, " It's beautiful, isn't it? " His father replied, in a calm tone, " Sure it is, son " He then said with sudden firmness, " I want to reside over there " To which his father looked at him and said, " That world is the world of mortals, we gods cannot reside there, that world is full of misery, hopelessness, futility and greed." He then said in a very very calm tone, " Father, first thing is that I am a human, I know you are ashamed of it but still.." His father interrupted, " No, its bot like that " The boy ignored it and continued, "... you are ashamed of me that is why you have granted me immortality, so I can go there without dying right. Secondly, if I live in a place like heaven then there is no problem, right? " His father replied, " There is no such place as heavens in the worlds of mortals " " I will make one then " ,He said brightly He kept on persisting his father that finally he agreed His father said with a sigh, " So you really want to go there, ok, but let me warn you " this time his father went in a serious tone, "When you go there you will forget everything of this heaven and the route to here. But yes your arts which you have learnt may be with you till you will be strong enough to use them " He thought about it for a moment, 'I really like my brothers and sisters, they are so kind to me, even though they are stronger than me. I love the garden. I like the maids, who help me and I like all the people here. I won't be able to see them again. But there is a new world to discover " Finally after a lot of thinking, he agreed but further added, "Father give me two wishes before I go " , He asked His father initially disagreed but later he agreed on giving him his two wishes. " My first wish is to give me eternal youth, without which i will wither like a tree. My next wish is to give me power to grant anyone eternal youth and immortality as i would need a partner for my life " , he asked To this his father first went grim and then laughed, " You are very smart son, fine since I granted you your wish I will fulfil them " At supper his father announced his wish of shifting to the mortal world and hence he will no longer be with them, the elders went crazy after hearing this and shouted, " Nonsense, What are you thinking, Zoran? He is your son " His father replied, " It's the boy's wish. I can't go against it " His mother and all other people were shouting at his father while his father tried to explain his point and his brothers and sisters, though they were not aware about the mortal world but the fact that i was going was enough to make them sob. " Please, hear me out " ,he shouted at last and all the elders stared at him " I was a mortal so i think this is the right thing to do " "But you are immortal now so what is the problem in staying here? " , his mother asked " But mom I want to go out there to see where I should have been I should have a chance to see the outer world and not cooped up here forever " , he said " But you are still very young " ,an elder pointed " And..." his mother continued , " there are lots of danger in the mortal world " and then started sobbing He went up to his sobbing mother and held her hand and looked in her eyes. He said, " It's okay, mother, I will be fine. Infact, I am str.." just as he ws about to say strong he looked at his brothers and sisters and just smiled. Zoran said from behind, " Gods are much stronger than mortals you are alreadyan infant level storjg you will do fine I think plus you will have your abilities also " " See.." He said, " It's gonna be fine, mom, I am gonna survive " He wiped her tears and went back to his seat and solemnly saying, "I am gonna survive " and at the end he punchedin the air and the seemed to develop a c***k, though it was not something the castle cannot handle. The castle was built for the strongest of the strongest. But it was more than enough to calm everyone down and had their supper Later that night he went upto his mother to talk about his ideas and to listen about mortal world it seemed that everybody hated mortal world. In the end he announced, " I am gonna change the mortal world. I will make it better." To this his mother hugged him and he went back to his room to sleep. Next few days he played with his brothers and sisters and had all the fun he could for the last few days. His eldest brother asked, " Do you really have to go?" He replied, " I was a mortal, you were all gods from the beginning brother, So it is only natural that I would go some day or the other " His elder brother understood it and thus stayed silent. Finally, the day came when he had to leave. He hugged everyone( even though he don't like hugs ) and then his father took him somewhere and gave him a dark veil and asked him to drink it he drank the liquid inside though it tasted a little sweet. Nothing out of ordinary happened. Next his father casted some spells on him and gave him a similar dark veil and said, " Give it to the person you feel worthy of it " After this his father held his shoulders and said in a soft tone, " Remember, where there is a light, there is always darkness lurking around. Don't get shrouded by it make it order you " " Stephenos " His father called him, " Do you really have to go? " He saw him crying Stephenos went and hugged his father. His father led him to cavern and there was another person over there. " Remember son, if you are ever in trouble, we can't help you, you are really on your own. " Zoran said " I don't need help, father " Stephenos replied , " anyways I won't even remember you, forget about what you said " " Good bye,son " Zoran said at last " I'll be off then, father " Stephenos said, smiling and soon the guy took him to the mortal world to reborn.....
