~Twilight Hearts~


Intro:


“Zeph, Zeph. Wake up stupid!” A sudden pain hit the boy on the side of his head.


“What was that for, Regan?” asked the boy wearing a white, unzipped jacket over a red T- shirt and baggy pants. The boy arose to his feet to meet an angry looking girl wearing a bandana on her head and tang-top with flowers and regular jeans for pants.


“Do you always slack off? You were supposed to meet us by the beach on the other end of the island an hour ago.”


“I guess I just lost track of time”


“Is that the best excuse you’ve got?” asked Regan as she hit Zeph over the side of the head with her fist. “Whatever, just get your sorry butt moving. Your sister thought you went swimming and got eaten by a shark and we would find you mutilated body washed up along the shore.”


“Hph.” he chuckled “That would haft to be about the worst thing to happen on her birthday. I should just tell her that nothing will ever happen to me.”


“You know, you shouldn’t be so cocky”


“Why not?”


“Because, it makes for bad character, but then again no one cares about your character. Well come on, get your butt moving. It’s getting late and we’ve got a long walk across Dreamer Island.”


-1 hour later-


“Who knew that this island was that big” said Regan as she walked along side Zeph on the sea shore. “My legs are sore all over.”


“You better get used to it, because we’re going to be stuck on this stupid island for a long time.” Zeph said kicking up sand.


‘Man, he’s really sick of this island. He’s been stuck on this island all his life. I guess you can’t blame him.’ she thought.


“Stop day dreaming Regan. We’re here.” he said


Zeph ran atop a giant pile of sand to see a boy in a T-shirt and jeans and a small girl standing with short, silver hair standing right beside him.


“We didn’t think that you guys would ever get here” said the boy


“It’s only a small delay. You’re usually even later than me, Brendan” Zeph said with a hint of sarcasm.


Brendan wore a red T-shirt and baggy pants with lots of zippers. The girl wore a pink skirt with a yellow T-shirt.


“Big brother” yelled the girl. “I thought that you were in trouble”


“What kind of trouble do you think I would have gotten into on your birthday? You need to stop worrying Shelby; I’m always going to be there for you.” Zeph said in a sincere tone


“Sorry to ruin this moment, but thanks yours and Regan’s slacking off, it’s more than a small delay. It’s already sunset.” complained Brendan


“What did I do?” whined Regan while she was still trying to get over the sand dune. “You guys told me to go get him!”


“Not much we can do to change that so we might as well go home," said Zeph. "Mom should have dinner done by now. Come on Shelby, we need to get home before it gets dark.”


“Okay Zeph. See you guys tomorrow.” said Brendan in a now cheerful voice


As Zeph and Shelby began walking home, it got dark and they started talking.”


“So what does it feel like being seven?” asked Zeph


“I feel older and that’s about it.” Replied Shelby


“Really, because when-.”


“Look, look. A falling star.” Interrupted Shelby “Ooh, and another one, and over there. Man, there are a lot of falling stars tonight.”


“That’s odd. There are hardly any shooting stars around here. Whoa, we better pick up the pace.” He said while looking at his watch. He grabbed Shelby’s hand and started to run home.


-The Next Morning-


“Come on Zeph. We don’t want to be late again.” Said Shelby as she jumped up and down on Zeph’s bed. “Were going to be late again, and its going to be your entire fault!”


“Okay, Okay” moaned Zeph as he arose from his bed, took a shower, shoved a piece of toast down his throat; almost suffocated from choking on it, and then brushed his teeth. [He cares a lot about dental hygiene] “I’m ready. Let’s get moving before we get a scolding from Regan. You know how nasty her temper can get.”


“Yeah, I know. Once I think I saw her spit fire” yelled Shelby as the two walked out the door into the bright, summer sunlight of Dreamer Island. The two talked about this and that and a variety of things as they walked across the island.


“So that’s where you think babies come from? Babies fall from the sky?” asked Zeph.


“Yeah, of course. Where else would they come from?” his sister replied


“Man; you’ve got a lot to learn.” he chuckled


“Fine; you believe what you want to believe and I’ll believe what I want to believe.” said Shelby in a persnickety voice.


“We’re only a quick sprint away from the docks. Race ya!” Zeph sprinted up and ran to the dock which was clearly visible.


“Don’t run so fast. I can barely keep up.” Shelby whined while trying to keep up with Zeph.


“Bout time you got here” said Brendan as Zeph walked onto the dock to meet bolth Brendan and Regan.


“Let me guess: You forgot to set your alarm last night.” Badgered Regan with glaring eyes. Zeph walked over to the side of the dock and leaned on the guard rail.


“Well you know how I am I like to take-” the old rusty guard rail snapped and Zeph fell deep into the bright blue sea.

~Twilight Hearts~

Chapter 1: And so it begins…

‘Is this what it feels like to die?’ Zeph thought to himself as he slowly drifted to the bottom of the sea. ‘That’s odd. I landed in the shallow water. How could it be this deep?’ Soon Zeph gently floated down onto a giant, round platform with a picture of a hooded figure in black cloak [Sound familiar] and an orange background. Around the figure were 12 more hooded figure’s except they weren’t enlarged. “Where am I?” he said to himself.

“Power sleeps within you…” a pedestal appeared to Zeph’s left with a giant, silvery-white key floating an inch above it. “If you give it form…” another pedestal appeared to his right, but this time there was a black key. “You can conquer anything.”

“Okay, okay. I’ll play along. This is just some crazy dream anyways.” Zeph walked over to the pedestal to his left and read a plaque that was engraved into it.

With the path of light you shall smite down all that is wrong and contaminated with darkness. You will do anything to destroy the darkness. It is a long path, but you will be able succeed.
-Oathkeeper

‘“Anything” to destroy the darkness?’ Before I make my decision I should look at the other.

With the path of darkness you shall conquer anything that stands in your path. You fear the light and seek to destroy it. It is a short path and with what you have learned you shall be a dark ruler.
-Oblivion

‘Neither of these sound to my liking.’ Zeph heard a chiming sound coming from behind him. He turned to see what it was. “There stood a third pedestal with a tan key with a sun at the top of it on the left side with a moon within the sun. The guard was crafted into perfectly curved angel-like wings. “This one looks different.” He walked over to it and examined the plaque.

This is the path of Twilight. You shall wield the powers of both Light, and Darkness. You fight for neither. This is a standard path and shall lead you to great strength.
-Dawning Shadow

‘This one seems, different.’ Zeph reached out his hand and grabbed the handle. When he grabbed, a bell chime rang and the blade disintegrated into specks of golden dust. The pillars began to crumble and the mysterious voice returned.

“Now that you have chosen a weapon,” The platform began to rumble. “It is time to fight.” Suddenly a giant black demented claw came up from over the edge a smashed down on then platform and pushed the attached body onto the platform. “Damn” Zeph thought to himself. The giant monster had for a head what looked like a knight’s helmet. Its left arm was white and hap a pure look to while its right hand was dark and demented and had black tentacles sprouting from it. On it’s were wings, angel-like and bat-like. Each wing was in back of the corresponding arm. (Angel wing=left arm, Bat wing=right arm). The ferocious monster puffed out his armor shaped torso and let loose a massive roar. All Zeph could do was stand still and watch in fear. ‘What kind of dream is this?” Zeph thought to himself. It all seems, seems… too real” Without warning the monster slapped down his hand, attempting to hit Zeph. Zeph dodged by jumping back, but lost his balance and fell.

“Okay, time to get serious!” Zeph said, not exactly sure who he was saying it to but oh well. Zeph was back on his feet and had his giant key thing in hand and ready for battle. Zeph charged forward at the monster. It slashed its hand sideways, but Zeph ducked and did an uppercut, slicing off the creatures left index finger. “Ha, this isn’t so hard”. The giant index finger which was flying through the air disintegrated into white dust and a new finger grew back where the old once was. “Guess I spoke to soon. Crap! How am I supposed kill this thing!?” while Zeph was to busy thinking about a strategy the monster pulled back his wings and then flapped them creating a great, storm-like wind. Zeph was blown back; doing flips in the air and banging his head against the glass. “Rggg. I’m not going to give up like that.” With his lip bleeding, he rose to his feet; prepared to fight once more.
