When I first started gaia a many years ago, there was someone who randomly sent me something on my wish list asking only that I pay it forward when I could. I simply ask the same.

Message: "I SEEK not what his soul desires.
He dreads not what my spirit fears.
Our Heavens have shown us separate fires.
Our dooms have dealt us differing years.

Our daysprings and our timeless dead
Ordained for us and still control
Lives sundered at the fountain-head,
And distant, now, as Pole from Pole.

Yet, dwelling thus, these worlds apart,
When we encounter each is free
To bare that larger, liberal heart
Our kin and neighbours seldom see.

(Custom and code compared in jest-
Weakness delivered without shame-
And certain common sins confessed
Which all men know, and none dare blame.)

E'en so it is, and well content
It should be so a moment's space,
Each finds the other excellent,
And-runs to follow his own race!"
-Rudyard Kipling

Hey there!

I've got a special gift for you!

From: An anonymous benefactor
Message: Babyscarlet, darling, you are as pretty as a flower.
In your pastel dress, I must confess,
I'm caught within your power.

You are as heavenly as Springtime,
as delicate as petals,
As precious as a diamond,
and alluring as pure metals.

And though I cannot reveal my face,
believe this to be true,
BabyScarlet, I wish all of Gaia
was lovely as you!

1) Beginnings...

"Who am i? Good question, For i am much worse then your average thug. I'm not the kind of person you would want to cross... Much like you i was born and went to school, Tho i was a bit different from you there, For i was pretty and popular, everyone bowed down to me. I never had to lift a finger at home, i was far from normal... That is what i wish i could say but i had a ruff upbringing. At School i was an outcast and i had no friends, i wasn't smart or pretty or have any of the things the other kids had, so i was bullied a lot. Tho this was only the beginning.

I began to believe the world was out to punish me, God had abandoned me and I only had my self to look out for.

Typical right? The story of every hero.

By the time i graduated with my poor grades i had given up on finding my own place in this world. What was my point? Why was i here?

This is where it gets exciting!

One day while sitting in my poorly light room on my old broken laptop reading the news, There was a knock on my door. On the floor there was a small box with no address on it. Thinking it was something that someone had sent to me i carefully opened it, inside was a black crown and a red bow. Why anyone would have sent me such a thing i could never have understood. So i went to find whom it was meant for. While roaming the Empty streets of Aekea, walking past the thugs whom I've been with for the longest of times.

People say you should be grateful for the life you have but i think that's rubbish, Those people are stupid. Life is something you have to fight for.

I gave up on my search and tried it on. I felt a rush of power flow tru me, Dark power, The power of hell its self. Its proof that i was being watched by a god. The god of hell. My god. No one was going to be able to stop me. People in this world dont fear the light they fear the taint and darkness of being powerless.


Because,

you see,

unlike light,

when you embrace the darkness,

there is no going back.


Light tries to stop the darkness, but no matter how hard it tries to break it the darkness just moves around the light surrounding it and confining it. Stopping it from escaping and puts it out. destroying its existence.

But then again whats the point in the light even existing, Us creatures of the night don't fear it, we embrace it.

Hold on a sec why am i even telling you this. Hmh. I don't think you will tell anyone about me, or your end up without even a small flame burning with in you.

Message: #6) Lucky in Love

One and a half months since the accident, and it still haunted her. Even with the cast removed and a sterling bill of health, she couldn't quite shake a feeling of dread. Things didn't quite add up. Ogres weren't the brightest bulb on the tree - and she should know...just how could one be expected to orchestrate a plan as elaborate as the one attempted on New Year's Eve? As she laid her head on her pillow that night, it was all she could think about till dawn...

For you however, it was a weekend like any other. Grunting at the sound of your alarm you wake up, brush your teeth, pull on a fresh shirt, and find a pen to cross another Friday off your calendar. Drawing an X through the box, you fail to realize what's typed in the slot for that day. There, in small print at the bottom, read the words "Valentines' Day" ... After a quick bowl of cereal you grab your things and head out the door to run some errands in the marketplace. There was still a slight chill in the air, but things were warming up, slowly but surely. As you make your way down the sidewalk toward the grocery, you let your eyes wander over the window displays, studying them curiously for anything new and interesting. Every so often your focus would change and find your reflection in the glass, but then they'd adjust, staring through to the other side again. As you near the corner of the block, your feet suddenly stop moving and you turn, tilting your head and arching a brow. Was this shop always here? You don't recall seeing it before, but it wasn't having a grand opening or anything. You look toward the door and see the name spelled out in cursive lettering: Reflections

It appears to be open, and offering a special of some kind. Looking left and right and consulting your watch, you figure you have enough time to indulge your curiosity and look around. You push your way through the door and a little bell above it rings. Smoke billows through the room from an incense stick on the counter, smelling of cloves and something else. You do your best to fan the fragrance away as you look all around, spotting rocks and fountains and all sorts of mystical things. You step about halfway into the room and approach the items on the shelves, when, all of the sudden, a voice sounds out of no where and makes you flinch. "Hello there, are you here for the special? Half off of love fortunes, today only."

You shake your head and wave your hand, letting the woman know you were just looking. Not to be discouraged she takes your hand in hers and studies your palm. "Are you sure? I think I see a special someone in your future. Should be a very good one." Feeling a little put on the spot, you reluctantly agree, figuring you could spare a few dollars if you had to. Keeping a hold of your hand, she leads you to a small, round table in the corner of the room and gestures for you to sit down in one of the chairs. Taking a seat across from you she starts by tapping a deck of cards out of its box, then, to your surprise, she reaches across and passes the whole thing off to you. "Shuffle them for as long as you like, then, draw a card and place it face-down." she instructs. There was something of an eerie smile on her lips, but it escapes your attention as you follow her directions in the unusual task. The deck feels awkward as the cards move through your fingers and rearrange themselves in the stack. The material starts to feel warm in your grasp, almost unnatural...and, maybe even...alive... Stopping abruptly you pull one out at random and set it down with an uneasy swallow. The fortune teller reaches for the card, pauses, and looks you in the eye. "Are you ready to see what your future holds?" her dark voice coos...and she flips it over.

'Wheel of Fortune' - your eyes strain to read the print upside-down. That was good, right? But she just laughs. You look up at her questioningly. "Oh my, it seems I was mistaken. You should be very careful." All the color starts to fade from the card and the deck jumps and shimmies around in your hand. Startled, you drop all the cards on the floor and back out of your chair. "It seems your luck...has run out." You don't bother to stick around - as you turn and run out you spot what appears to be large figures rising from the pile in your peripheral vision. A loud cackle fills the room as claws and tendrils grasp unsuccessfully at your back trying to prevent your escape. Your hands fumble with the doorknob a moment but you manage to pry it open and leap out right in the nick of time. Slanted shadows n** at your heels as you book it across the street, clumsily dodging a vehicle that arrived in poor timing. It honks its horn but sputters on its way and you turn, back planted against a brick building, watching an army of monsters pile out of the shop. Your legs quiver and mind races, trying to think of where you could run and hide, but the mob fans out and has you surrounded. Just as you brace yourself to make a break through the crowd, a whistle sounds out of no where. All heads turn to see from whence it came.

"Hey, haven't you heard? Today's for lovers, not fighters."

A girl in blue and pink stands against the rays of the sun atop a clothing store, arms crossed and bows fluttering in the breeze. Dismounting like a gymnast she flips off and lands in the middle of the pack, wand at the ready. "Are you all right? Don't worry, I know what to do. Well, I've seen it in a movie once." You open your mouth to reply, but the fortune teller cackles and cuts you off. "There no way you can beat them," she boasts. "But just for fun, let's see what fate has in store for you, Radiant Anon!" A spare card in hand, she flicks her wrist and sends it flying. The dark magic starts to activate in midair, sprouting another evil creature to represent her fortune. Unfazed by the threat the girl races forth, striking her wand against the Strength card and flipping it to land upright. All of the sudden its aura shines a brilliant light, turning the card a soft pink and marking it with a heart. As the beams start to diminish a tiny flying lion with a unicorn horn and curly tail flutters around and growls cutely. "That it? Not bad, if you ask me." the heroine riposted with a smirk. "Mighty leocorn, help me turn this bad luck around!" The small creature fluffs its mane and growls, rearing up and charging through the air with its horn aglow.

Working in tandem the two make quick work of the crowd, purifying the creatures and sending them back into the cards. Your eyes race, trying to keep up with their progress. There had to be over fifty of them, and they just kept coming. Your lips move silently, counting them off. Seventy-five, seventy-six, seventy-seven...was that it? Seemed to be, you can't see any more. But...didn't card decks typically contain an even number? Acting on a hunch, your cup your hands beside your mouth and shout out to the girl, warning her there had to at least be one more. She looks at you with wide and curious eyes as the last of the dark creatures fade away in a puff of light and sparkles. "One more, besides Leo?" she asks, making sure she heard it right. The leocorn lands and turns in a circle scanning the streets, equally as puzzled. You do the math for her, counting on your fingers as you explain in a half-shout across the distance. Her brow furrows in concentration, staring off as she listens. "That can only mean one thing..." Clenching her fist tighter around her wand she turns and points it...

...at the fortune teller. "That was a nice try." she says with a stern expression, "Let's see which card you turn out to be." The woman cracks an amused smirk, not put off in the slightest. "You're not as dumb as you look," she said, spinning her words like a black widow. "But you'll never get me back in that deck now that I've tasted fresh air." The leocorn snarls and puffs out its tail, roaring a high pitched roar. "You're not only upside down, but you're backwards too." Her feet slide apart and take a fighting stance. "It's time to see the light." From what you can see the woman too starts to gear up, preparing to strike the colorful heroine. You clench your fists by your side and hope against hope as the two powers clash in a fit of shadow and light. The air's doused in darkness, then illuminated with light, switching back and forth like a strobe until a blast sounds and all goes quiet. The next thing you know you're blinking your eyes open several times and as they focus, spot a hand in front of your face.

"Need a lift?" the girl titters humorously. You take her hand and she pulls you up, shuffling her feet shyly against the ground. Around you, everything appears to be back to normal, with nary a trace of the struggle to begin with. "I'm really sorry about that...I don't know how that happened. Not all fortune tellers are bad but...here." She holds out the deck, fanning the cards with one hand. "If you want, try picking a card again. Just for fun." You stare at the pink cards a second doubtfully, then look up at the girl. "Don't worry, they're clean, and just in case I took her out of the deck." She raises it up, the cause of it all - The Hierophant. The picture of the culprit makes you seize up at first sight, but as you study the art, the portrait's gentle expression, you realize there was nothing left to be afraid of. Feeling a little safer now, you nod, extend a hand, and pick one that seems to stand out from the rest...

Around the corner, unbeknownst to the girl and her little friend, a shadowy figure was studying their every move.
A conniving grin tugs at the corners of his mouth, amused at her latest triumph...

Soon...

2) A lonely Valentine


"Life can be Unbearable at times. The morning light leaking from the cracked blinds of your bedroom window, The shouting from next door having there morning argument about who is taking the kids to work. Its all such a pain.

It was a Saturday morning like any other, Waking up, Drinking the cold coffee from the night before to get rid of your hang over from the party, eating dry toast to clean out the last remains of the alcohol filed night. Promising your self it will never happen again. Of course that was nothing but a lie. Humanity, The night life, Being social. Of course that's the reasons you blame it on, But of course that's nothing but a lie.

Your lonely, Ever so lonely, That's why I came to you. "

The words Echoed tru my head every day, your Lonely, so lonely. I guess that could have been true. But now i have so many under my control. That makes me smile.

For valentines i had a wonderful idea on how i was going to rid the world of light and love, Such a simple yet effective plan, Yet no one else would have thought of it. I was going to curse them, when they were at ease.

Chocolate.

Everyone gifts Such sweet things on this day of the year so i would damn then with the gift from there love. A curse of hate and despise. That should remove some of the light from this world, Help bring the true Love of darkness to the world.

I hope you enjoy your sweets &:3

Message: You find yourself in the dark, reaching out as you stumble along a long and twisting passageway. The walls feel rough and cold, like stone, with damp hairy bits you hope are some sort of moss. After several minutes, you step into a wide open space. You wave your hands about, but touch nothing but inky dark.

Suddenly two hands intertwine with yours and bring them in front on you, gently. You can feel thumbs caress the back of your hands.

&��Hush now,&�� a voice whispers. &��I&��ll lead you out of here.&��

The voice comforts you and you can&��t help but remember your mother&��s soothing tones. You find yourself walking forward as the unknown figure pulls you along and you really don&��t care. This is safety. You&��re safe.

You don&��t remember quite when the hands holding yours start to feel different, but as you walk, they become colder, more jagged, like sticks digging into your skin. As the thumbs continue to caress the back of your hands, you realize that whatever&��s holding you is now made up of bones.

You struggle back, but the grip on your hands tightens.

&��Hush now,&�� the voice says, its whisper harsh and filled with cruel mirth. &��I&��ll lead you out of here.&��

It starts to laugh, a high dry sound like the crinkling of old skin, as it continues to pull you along through the dark.

-Hush now
