The Darkness Shines

A Nerve Touched

Cinder POV
I walked into the cell room, with a giant cage.
Me: Salem wants you to eat
????: what for, she's taken most of my power, turned me into an asshole to do it, needed all the power she could....now look at me, a bird in a fucking cage
Me: even birds need to eat
????: hmph, what is it
Me: I don't even know, just assume it's a Salisbury Steak
????: nice to know....tell me Firecracker, why do you follow her?
Me: power of course, why else
????: hmph, well then, you're more of a fool than I thought
Me: what are you talking about
????: I've had Salem with me for a long time, you pick up on a few things, she doesn't care about you or her men, she just wants Remnant, and when she's done with that, what use will she have for you, she'll just steal your power
Me: shut up!
????: you know I'm right, you just don't want to admit it
Me: I'm warning you!
????: what's worse, realizing she lied to you this entire time, or having a murdered child telling you that you are nothing more than a pawn
I shot a fireball at him, making the cage make a metallic sound. He was quiet after that, I left the room.
Salem POV
Daburu: I need a reason why you want the Red Head
Me: for power young boy, for power, remember, you have enough to stop her
Daburu: I need more, the Golden Warrior will not go down easily
Me: I didn't expect you to listen to legends
Daburu: it was a hobby before you turned my soul black
Me: well, how do you defeat a golden warrior
Daburu: more darkness than light, enough where it will never shine again
Me:......very well then
Daburu: with that, I should be able to kill both and bring you Ruby Rose and Pyrrha Nikos
???? POV
Daburu: with that, I should be able to kill both and bring you Ruby Rose and Pyrrha Nikos
My eyes shot open in the darkness, I felt the chains around my wrist, nullifying my power.
Me: come on damn you
I managed to make small sparks of energy.
Me: in time....these shackles won't save you from me, once I'm free, I'm coming for you Salem, I'll murder you....with my bare hands
Pyrrha POV
We kept moving, these days were getting harder and harder to get through. I felt my energy draining more, thinking about Jaune....thinking about Y/N.
Ruby: Pyrrha, that power you had, what was it?
Me: I don't even know, I heard an ancient language in my head
Ruby: what did they say?
Me: Raizugōruden'u~oriā
Ruby: what does that mean?
Me: I wish I could tell you
???? POV
I heard the door open, Salem came in.
Me: what are you doing here
Salem: I wanted to talk
Me: we have nothing to talk about, you took me away from Pyrrha....my friends
Salem: you don't have any friends, you're nothing more than a glorified monster, you were made to kill and what happens, big bad monster falls in love
Me: you can fucking die for all I care
Salem: I can't die naturally, only killed
Me: well then I guess I have a mission
Salem: don't make me laugh
Me: it wasn't a joke, once I break from these chains....I'll murder you, I'll rip your head from your body and SKULL FUCK YOU!
Salem had a straight face, she then got up and turned around
Salem: I like your spirit kid....it's a shame all of that power is wasted on someone like you
