I froze at the words, but it was the strange, very Arican voice that bothered . My scans would be able to tell if there was another human up ahead, but there was only the unknown creature's signature.
"I am a human," I called.
"If you are a human, then so am I."
I walked forward until I reached the central area that should have had a desk in it and many other things, but that was all crushed and covered in black veins. In the center of the room was a figure cloaked in darkness.
Imdiately, I ran a scan over it, but nothing ca up. I an, I got the scan read, but everything about this thing was unknown.
"You don't look like any human I have seen," I said to the figure, and solid yellow round eyes opened, and it smiled with razor-sharp white teeth. There was sothing under that darkness.
"Neither do you, Annokale. You are only human-shaped, as I am. These forms are nothing more than the conveniences we provide to the lesser forms. We are much greater than these fragile shells, are we not, Daniel?" The darkness asked , and I took an involuntary step back. How did this creature know my na already? Could it have heard us above?
"Who are you, and how do you know my na?" I asked, taking a step forward again. I would not lose ground to whatever this was.
"I have many nas given to , but they tend to get lost after I tire of playing gas and devour all that know them! You can call Shalgoth, the Devourer of Worlds!" The darkness announced.
"What are you doing here then?" I asked. This creature was terrifying from just its presence, but was that all? It was being held by humans, after all.
"I have been waiting for you, of course! The Bright One isn't the only being that can plan in advance, and now I have you here!" The form declared and then started to shift into a black knight. "I am here to take the heart from you, and then I can search out the other!"
Suddenly, the knight burning with shadow jumped at , bringing the sword in an overheard strike aid at my face. Silver root blocked the strike and then pushed the blade back, but it beca incorporeal and kept coming for my face. My hands went up, and I grabbed the blade, instantly feeling a burning like nothing I had ever felt before.

I threw myself back, letting go of the blade, shaking my hands that looked tarnished silver. This was the first ti that I had felt real pain in a while, but what the hell was dark matter, and why could it hurt ?
"So, you are much stronger than I could have imagined, but that will only make taking your life from you that much sweeter!" Shalgoth laughed, but I clapped my hands, then put them to the side as I bowed, and twin katana ford in my hands.
"Bravo, Shalgoth. I am actually excited," I said with a vicious smile as the terror I had once felt burned away. I had been looking for a real fight since I had gotten this power.
"Excited? You are supposed to be feeling terror!" The knight snapped, and I shook my head.
"I was just scared that you were going to be sothing weak that talked a bunch of smacks, but you are just another space fart looking for a good ass whooping!" I laughed, bringing my blades up.
There was no doubt that this creature was incredibly strong, but it seed to think highly of itself. In all fairness, it probably had a good reason, but it was still strange that it said it was waiting for .
"You laugh now, creature of the stars, but where there is always more darkness than light!"
I dashed forward and slashed at the creature, but my blade passed through it. I was slashed by the creature's sword, but roots burst from the cut, grabbing the blade and holding it to my side.
"Gahh! Fucking shadow!" I roared and kicked the black knight in the chest, sending him flying back into the wall, but the blade went with him. I healed the cut easily, but it still hurt like a son of a bitch.
This was going to be botherso to deal with, but that ant I was going to have to take so hits and get my hands dirty. I sucked my swords back into my body and marched over to the creature as I tried to pick itself up.
I drove my knee into its face, knocking it back down, and then started to boot fuck the black stain, but then shadow grabbed like my roots and flung back. My roots sprung out, catching in the air like a spider in a web.
"You are a resilient stain!" I growled as I flung myself at the creature again, tackling it to the ground. I started to feed it shots, and the creature shortened its weapon to a dagger, trying to stab . I pinned down that arm and fed elbows into the creature's face.
Shadows tried to grab again, but I anchored my body to the ground this ti, but they still burnt my skin.

"Get off , you brute! Fight like a galactic be-"
I hit him in the mouth with another elbow to shut him up and continued to beat the shit out of the creature.
Suddenly, a black spike shot out of its chest and impaled . I winced and coughed down silver-like blood onto the shadow figure.
"Not so tough now are-"
I slashed the spiked with my arm, breaking them, and punched the cock sucker in the lips again to shut him up. I was so tired of people talking, and this oozing pile of infected burning piss was no exception.
"Just say Uncle when you are tired of getting a back alley brain transplant!" I growled and continued to beat the shadow as it fought back futility.
