The Dark Heir
Child of Choice

"Like your dark friend the girl, I know all about it" said the father pointing at Nyx.

The atmosphere around became very cold.Silence controlled the father's work room.Nyx was seen taking a standby position, preparing for the attack that he would do.

"You are quite a rotten human being" replied Nyx, taking out a black sword from her hand.

"Yes, this rotten man is going to finish you off" replied the father.

A sharp ice was seen emerging from my father's hand.The floor around him began to freeze.The temperature of the room increasingly made my breath emit steam.

"Dad stop it!", I shouted in my way.

Dad just fell silent.He didn't lower his hand at all.His gaze looked very piercing.Such as being threatening me to leave.

"Gerald, get away from there" said the father with his breath that let out steam.

I just shook my head.I don't want to leave my position.

"Gerald! Get out of there now!" snapped dad at me.

"No! I'm not leaving!"

"Gerald Adelio's! I warn you again! Get out of there!" snapped dad's getting louder.

"No! I will stay here!", my reply which is also getting louder.

The sharp eyes that had previously appeared in his right hand, slowly disappeared.A father of course would not attack his own son.Therefore I made myself a living shield for Nyx.

"I can explain to you dad!" I said when things started to calm down a little.

"You better satisfy father son, otherwise you will see the girl's head separated from her body" replied the father.

Nyx did not put her hands down.Dark shadow still seemed to envelop her hands.

"All right my father will explain what happened" I replied.

At least this should go smoothly.Otherwise I'll see one of my friends lose his life today.

"Explain to me, son"

I must explain to father briefly and clearly.Dad must know the fact that Nyx is not a creature that we must make an enemy.

"It all started when we spent the night at grandfather's house" I said a little nervously.

"Dad knows that, I've seen him with you many times since that night" he said.

Both of my hands were trembling.I must not choose the wrong word at this time.

"Explain to me, what happened that night?" continue father.

"That night, I woke up to an indistinct whisper right next to me.At that moment I could only hold back my fear.I kept trying to close my eyes and close my ears, but the voice kept coming", obviously me.

"That's when I met Nyx, the girl of darkness whom I was trying to exterminate" I continued.

Nyx lowered her two hands that had previously been pointed at the father.Aura the darkness around her hands slowly began to disappear.

"Nyx didn't mean anything to me father, he didn't hurt me that night" I said, staring intently into his eyes.

Dad scratched his head.He seemed to consider what I said.Either the truth or the lie.

"You! Dark girl!" call dad.

Nyx did not flinch at all.Despite his sometimes silly behavior, he was my brave friend.Since the beginning, he did not take his eyes off me at all.

Nyx chuckled, She walked towards me who was sitting in front of my father.

"Who said I was interested in your family?", Nyx replied as she stroked my head.

"I'm only interested in your son, Gerald Adelio", Nyx continued.

"Explain to me" said the father.His right hand seemed to be starting to freeze again.

Jesus Nyx, I hope you didn't pick the wrong words.

"Well you don't have to be angry, there's a reason why I'm interested in your youngest child" Nyx replied.

"And what is that reason?" ask dad.

"Humans like you won't be able to see what's on Gerald, if you can see it then you'll pass out right then and there" Nyx continued.

"What do you mean?" ask dad.

"I, as a dark creature, saw something very wonderful about Gerald" Nyx said.

Dad didn't give up his eyes on Nyx.So did Nyx.They both look really creepy.

"Didn't your son have been plagued by dark creatures lately?" ask Nyx to dad.

"Yes, that's right.Are you the one who sent them?" said he asked Nyx.

"Ahh, of course not.You think I would do such a stupid thing to a successor?" answer Nyx.

My whole body suddenly felt like it was being electrocuted.All my body trembled when I heard the words spoken by Nyx.

Meanwhile, the father also looks surprised.Thin ice sheets began to be seen on the skin of his hands.I shudder in horror.I know my mother once told me, if the ice magic user began to look thin flakes of ice on his skin, then it's better to stay away.

Father's emotions like will explode.The temperature of the room drops drastically.

"What do you mean successor?" ask Nyx.

Nyx swallowed her saliva.I hope she doesn't make your emotions explode right now.

"Lately the world of darkness looks chaotic.A letter from Shadow whose location is unknown, floated in the middle of a meeting between the spirits of darkness" explained Nyx.

"And in the letter came the name of your youngest son, Gerald Adelio", Nyx continued.

I looked at Nyx's face.His face now looked very serious.Nyx let out a long sigh before continuing the conversation.

"Why did my son's name appear in the letter? What do you want Shadow? What do you want?" sela daddy's.

A sharp ice re-emerged from my father's hand, ready to stab Nyx at any moment.

"Dad please calm down, I don't want to see blood soaking on the floor of this room, please dad." I said trying to calm my father down.

Dad looked at my face.He looked really creepy.Ice flakes were seen covering his right cheek.

"Well Gerald, you won't be angry" replied the father sitting back in his chair.

"The reason why your youngest son was written in the letter also appears in Mr. Shadow's letter", continued Nyx who began to re-explain to father.

"What's the reason then?" reply dad.

"It is written that your son is the future successor to Mr. Shadow, Gerald has been appointed directly by Mr. Shadow to be the heir to the darkness"

Seriate....
