Six hours of darkness

"Sorry boy, but this is necessary."

Thomas felt a strange sensation inside him, an unbearable tingling inside his body.

He tried to pull away, but Cain held Thomas' head using his other hand and said:

"I'm not going to kill you, this will only create a connection between me and the darkness, so hang in there."

Thomas continued to struggle, trying to free himself from Cain's grip.

Cain looked at this attitude and spoke:

"There, it's over."

Thomas calmed down when he heard this and realized that the pain was gone, but he noticed a smile on Cain's face, something that made him have a strange feeling.

Suddenly, Cain used the same hand that touched Thomas' chest, gave him a blow to his heart, and ripped it out.

Thomas felt his heart being ripped out, the sensation was horrible, an immense pain washed over him. Blood began to flow from his mouth, he tried to vomit the blood, but Cain wouldn't let him and grabbed him by the throat.

Thomas felt as if he was about to die, and as he closed his eyes, he heard Cain say:

"Wake up, darkness."

Thomas heard this and a bad premonition came to his mind, but he didn't have the strength to do anything else, he was physically and mentally tired, so he finally gave in and let the darkness of death engulf his body again.

Cain looked at Thomas' lifeless body and said:

"Now all I can do is wait."

Suddenly, Cain felt a presence and looked away, noticed who it was and spoke:

"So you stayed alive, Jack?"

Jack started walking towards Cain with part of his regenerated head and spoke:

"Yes, but let's talk about our deal, you said that if I helped you, this guy called darkness would revive me, right?"

Cain held Thomas' head with his left hand and his other hand, reached out to Jack and said:

"I don't need you anymore."

A sphere formed of spiritual energy, began to form in Cain's palm, and just as he was about to shoot Jack, he noticed that part of his arm was no longer there, and he heard:

"Are you going to leave of your own accord, or do you want me to force you?"

Darkness had awakened... Cain moved away from him at a colossal speed and stopped beside Jack.

Sweating cold, Cain reflected as he looked at Charles:

'I already knew his aura was overwhelming, but I had no idea it was this much.'

Jack and Cain looked into the darkness rising; a moon tattoo imprinted on his forehead and eyes completely black, and exuding a cruel and dangerous aura. Their instincts told them to play dead, but their fear of moving and doing anything not to please the being in front of them was slavish.

Charles looked at them calmly as he pushed his hair up, Cain seeing only that attitude, quickly knelt down.

Jack didn't understand, but decided to kneel as well, but when he was close to putting his knee on the ground, he lost his mind.

A seemingly invisible slash cut off Jack's head and a few strands of Cain's hair, the wall behind was cut together.

Jack, even without a head, was still alive. He was trembling all over and eventually went to his knees, even without a head.

Charles looked at the two of them and spoke:

"I'm glad I didn't have to tell you to get on your knees."

He looked at Jack and asked:

"Boy, do you have anything you want to ask for? I will fulfill any of your wishes, so speak up."

Jack regenerated his head and spoke in terror as he kept his head down:

"I want to come back to life and.... Can you give me an angel for a wife?"

Charles smiled and spoke:

"Is that all? Ask for more, take advantage of my good mood.

Jack took courage and asked for everything he wanted:

"If I have your permission.... I want 5 female angels please and I want to be very strong, I want to be someone who can kill angels easily, and also have infinite endurance and tenacity, that's all I ask."

Charles looked at Jack kneeling on the floor and spoke:

"Then stand up."

Jack obeyed and stood up excitedly, thinking that all his wishes would come true.

Charles smiled at him and suddenly Jack was being blown up, his soul was completely destroyed.

Charles picked up one of the fragments and spoke as he broke it:

"What a clueless guy."

He turned to Cain and spoke:

"What about you, do you have anything you wish for?"

Cain spoke while keeping his head down:

"I don't want anything."

"What?"

Charles did not understand his request, but then Cain said again:

"I want to give you my body as a receptacle, although I am only human, I am the son of Adam and Eve, so I am confident that my body, will be able to hold you for 24 hours."

Charles smiled and spoke:

"And so, you're going to ask me to kill someone, aren't you?"

"I don't want anything! my goal was just to free you, I don't care what you do after that, but I recommend you kill Lucifer."

"Killing Lucifer right now is not to my advantage.... And his body would not be able to hold me for 24 hours, at most it would be 6."

Cain stood thoughtfully and spoke:

"Aren't you afraid that Lucifer will break the seals?"

Charles looked at Cain and spoke:

"Sigh, you are very desperate, aren't you? But don't worry, I already have a plan to deal with Lucifer, should he get out of line."

"I see..."

"But that's okay, I've been wanting to take a walk in this new world for a long time, so six hours should satisfy me..."

Charles stopped in front of Cain and asked:

"You seem to know a lot about the past, so tell me what happened to my old body, the body I wore when I faced the creator and the 4 archangels."

Cain was shocked that Darkness did not know this, but decided to answer:

"In the great war that happened in the past, after you were sealed inside Lucifer, your true body, such a body that could hold all your power, was destroyed by the creator."

"Sigh, then I will have to wait..."

Cain raised his head and asked:

"Wait?"

"Never mind, now let me mark the brat's body..."

Charles placed his hand over Thomas' heart and marked it, a moon mark was imprinted on his heart.

Cain, seeing this asked:

"Do you intend to return to the boy's body later?"

"Yes, I need to take care of someone..."

"I understand."

Charles looked at Cain and spoke:

"So how are you going to get me out of the brat's body?"

Cain reached out his left arm and pulled the sleeve of his Henley, and pulled it up to his biceps, and a V-shaped scar, appeared on his forearm.

Charles looked at it and said:

"So that's the mark of Cain..."
