The evil rises prologue

by Lone Gunmen

"This is pointless!" the man shouted, as he shot another wawe of power from his hands and towards his opponent. They were in a dim cave, where only flashes of power enlighted the dark air. The air was hot, and filled with poisonous gas. The stench of burned flesh rised from the bodies of hell-spawn demons around them.

"Indeed." answered his opponent, and repelled the attack. His form was nearly human, but his eyes were so full of evil and cruelty, that they could never belong to a human being. His face was red from his own blood and anger, and his eyes were burning. When he answered, his voice was like a thousand needles in a mortal man's heart. "But I don't see any other way we could end this." he said calmly, and retaliated with dark power and unspeakable horrors, which engulfed his opponent. He grinned, as he was enjoying his opponents brutal death.

Suddenly a beam of light shot from the dark cloud, missing the evil battler with few inches. His grin slowly died, as his opponent walked from the cloud. He had a white robe, which was slightly red from few parts. He had a snow-white beard and a white hair. His eyes were light blue, and they were ageless and wise, althought he had a tired gaze. "You are not strong enough to destroy me, and I'm not strong enough to destroy you permanently." his opponent said with a calm tone, as he would be talking about weather.

He was enraged by his opponents words, and charged towards him, roaring madly like an animal. He saw as his foe was gathering energy into his hands, and mumbling arcane words of powerful spell, and he knew at that instant that he had made a mistake, yet there was nothing he could do.

As he was few inches from his opponents face, his opponent shot amazingly powerful beam of light straight through his chest, sending him flying through the air, hitting on the wall, and dropping to the floor of the cave.

As he laid there, he could hear his opponents footsteps coming closer and closer, and stopping next to him. He heard as his foe kneeled next to him. "So, I would like to propose a deal" his opponent said with irritatingly calm tone. He couldn't believe his ears!'A deal?' he thought to himself."You have yourself a pretty good negotiate situation here." he said. There was a small pause."What sort of a deal?."

"Okay, here goes: I am sending you to a world where no-one has ever heard from you or me. Then, I'm giving you...hmmmm...." 'What is he thinking?' "...how about 20,000 years to charge your power, and then we battle. For the last time." his opponent added.

"That doesn't sound too bad" the wounded battler said, as his breathing was getting heavier. "Okay, I accept. It is a deal. Besides, I'm dying anyway." His opponent rose to stand, and started to gather energy in his hand.

"No you're not.....Evil never dies" with these words, his opponent unleashed the energy, and disintegrated his body.

'There. He's gone. For now.' he thought, as he was lowering himself to ground. Nearly all his power had gone to give his foe the major blow, and disintegrating his body. ''Never show your weakness to the enemy. Now who said that? Funny, I can't remember.' he thought. "It has been so long..." He mumbled. "So much memories, floating alone in my mind like single islands in the ocean. Why can't I remember!" He shouted to the empty underworld. "Remember, remember remember, remember, remember..." the echo answered, like mocking. There was a long silence, and suddenly, he burst out laughing. First quietly, but slowly more and more louder. "Heheheheheheheeheehee..." He started to laugh. It was laugh, but eventually it changed into sobbing:

"So long, so long I have been here. I am so tired..." He threw his head up and cried silent,
