The sun had just set, the only source of heat and light was no longer only darkness was queen and it is in this ocean of darkness that the creatures of evil come out at night to cause desolation and misfortune on the land of Equestria .
What is happening? little demons emerge from the bowels of the earth, from the shadows herself and rush on the homes of the brave people of Equestria and he abates their claws on their doors screaming heresy ...
"Tricks or Treats"
Or it's Halloween, the second favorite days of the children's of ponyville after Christmas
The children rush to the doors to receive the sweets, they were disguised as mummies, vampires, werewolf, confederate soldier .... princess. The simple pumpkin turned into a terrible Jack'O lantern, all having fun.
"Come everybody, the ball is going to start yeah," said a two-meter tall man, built like a Church disguised as a little angel, this man was Bulk bicept
"Wow, the ball."
"I love ball."
" You love mine too," Said a Spike Drake dress like a Hank from Doctor Quinn.
" I hope Pinkie Pie will dance with me." say his friends with yellow and black hair who was dress like The Lone Ranger.
all have fun but let's move away from this small hamlet because in the distance a light shines, we quickly approach.
This glow was that of a campfire, lit by a character well known to all.
"Oh hi everyone I haven't seen you, how are you."
No answer
"I introduce myself, I'm James Jr Kallacity and yes from the terrible Kallacity family but don't be afraid I'm not like them... I don't take orphans, hostage ..."
James then turned his head and looked at ponyville where the party took place.
"Hmm, they seem to be having a good time, I would go to the party too but I can't, wanted to know why?
No answer
"Because if I go back there they execute me on the spot, fun no ... But hey today is Halloween, we tell scary stories, we eat candy, we dig up the dead and steal their jewel and darling stories I have tons of them so let good old James tell you a story, a ghost story, so hang on for this special Halloween episode. "
Thunder noise
Ahem
"It all started on Halloween day when I was 6 years old."
Flaaaaashbaaaaaaack
Little James alone in the dark.
"Mommy ... Daddy .... big sisters where are you? ... Oh no I'm still all alone, daddy said I shouldn't be all alone, especially on Halloween, Nashandra said ... that ... that there were a lot of ghosts and monsters that would devour me and use my soul as chewing gum ... and then she hit me and plunged my head into a pumpkin.
Meanwhile at the Kallacity family home, James Sr. takes care of carving the pumpkins as the girls finish dressing up for the traditional Halloween bank robbery.
"Girls, where is your brother, normally he is always with me when I carve the pumpkins."
"I took him far into the desert and told him not to move or the ghosts would devour him."
"Hahaha, your the best Nashandra."
BOOM
" What was that?"
"It's nothing, your father just pass out."
Back to James still lost in the dark
"My feet hurt, I'm tired of walking, I'm hungry but the worst of all ... it's Halloween and I have no costume, I wanted to be disguised as my grandpa.
Little James then started running around imitating his grandpa.
"I'm Solomon Kallacity, I'm very mean, put all the money in the bag or say goodbye to all your little teeth, bang bang bang hihihi .... uh what's that noise"
little James heard music.
"Quick, let's follow the music, it will lead me to safety.
The music was coming from 'a dilapidated mansion, far in the depths of the desert but strangely a 15-minute walk from Ponyville, don't ask me why it's the logic of old buildings that stinks of the supernatural, it was said that this mansion once was the residence of a family who came to town only on Lord's Day and then one sad day the Church caught fire ... with the family still inside.
Since that day, it is said that this house would be haunted by the ghosts of the family. The children have fun with the one who will stay the longest indoors while the adults, they often organize small secret parties where they indulge in strange games.
Little James spotted the mansion.
"Oh, the big house is scary, but I have to be brave like my grandpa and after all ghosts don't live in houses ... right."
Little James continued on his way and the music was getting louder and louder.
Meanwhile, in the mansion, it was a party, all drink, eat, dance to the music, then a man dressed in a black and white suit striped up and down with a bat-shaped bow tie and wearing a skeleton mask interrupted the music.
"My dear friends, it is almost time for the ritual so, let's get ready to call in the forces of the world ... bring the ouija boards."
everyone in the room jumped with joy.
"Oh yes, I love this game."
"I hope I see ghosts."
Guests extinguish all lights except for a circle of candles around the master of ceremonies. This one then started the game.
"On the darkest night and all the demons in hell, are there any ghosts tonight?
There was silence for 30 seconds, then the board moved towards "yes". Everyone was impressed
"Wow"
"I'm scared, honey"
Then the master resumed.
"If you are really there, give a sign ..." The master thought for a moment...
"Knock on the door three times."
5 minutes earlier
"Pff ... Pff"
Little James was all panting from his way, but he had finally arrived in front of the mansion but oddly there was no more music.
"Weird, I think I heard music ... unless it was ghosts ..... Ghosts who played music to attract me to devour me raw ... No ghosts pass through the walls, then they cannot hold a musical instrument since they are all soft ... Come on, James is not the time to go into explanations that question the entire scientific, supernatural and religious structure ."
James smile
"Well ... it's time to knock on the door."
At the same time.
"Knock on the door three times."
( softly) knock knock knock
Nothing happened because James probably hadn't hit hard enough.
"Did you hear something?"
" No and you?"
The master of ceremonies started again.
"If you are really there, give a sign!"
James outside
"They probably didn't hear me, I'm starting over."
(softly) knock, knock, knock
Still, nothing was happening and some of the guests were starting to get bored.
"I'm bored honey, where are the ghosts."
"I don't know my sweet, maybe they got lost.
“This is the last call ... if you're there .... KNOCK 3 TIMES ON THE DOOR.
James outside, who was also losing patience, picked up an old wooden plank from the manor and hit the door with it.
"This time they will hear me!"
(heavy) KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
....
In the room all stiffen with fear, because all had heard the 3 knockings, all turned to the master who also sweats profusely.
"It ... It seems that .... a spirit ... is ... is among us tonight." The master was struggling to articulate.
"A real spirit?"
"Impossible, it defies the very reason for existence."
"I just pee myself."
"Keep calm, my friends, keep calm ... that was without the wind and POF.
In his haste, the master dropped a crystal ball from the table where he was handling the ouija board. It rolled and ended up stopping at the foot of little James who had ended up entering the mansion.
"You knocked that off."
James picked it up and handed it back to the master shocked to see him.
"Uh ... I'm sorry, I walked in .... did you hear me hit this time?
All were shocked to see a child here, all whispered
"Is he really a spirit?"
"No, I think he's just a lost kid."
Little James looked at them and asked.
"What are you doing here," James asked before noticing the Ouija board.
"Oh, what is this board for, it's funny, it's all scribbled ... OH a smaller board," he said with liveliness and curiosity.
The master who did not have only his business to take care of a kid answered him by wanting to scare.
"It's to summon ghosts and other poltergeists." Did he say so much while moving his hands.
James was scared, making the world around him laugh, he trembled and asked the master.
"But ... but whose ghosts?"
The master smirked and said to little James.
(Explanations like a book illustration.)
"Do you see my child, before here lived an old family reclusive from the world, nobody knew who they were or where they came from, we only saw this family on the Lord's Day, many rumors circulated around them saying that 'he practices witchcraft and other macabre art?. "
Little James was more and more afraid, but the master continued.
"So to punish them for their sins, when the day of the Lord came, THE ALMIGHTY LORD would have set the church on fire, unable to flee, they burned in place."
The master stopped and took a deep breath, he thought he had terrified James but he was almost morbidly calm and said in a soft voice.
"I remember that day."
The master lost his smile.
"I remember that day, I was at that church that day too."
James stood up, walked slowly over to an old family portrait that was falling to the floor, and looked at him.
"I remember the flames ... those flames that devoured everything."
The wind blew around the mansion, which made the wooden planks crack, already weakened with time. This scared everyone, but it didn't faze James.
"At first ... it was hot, so hot but then ... it was cold ... as cold as death."
The wind blowing stronger and stronger which made the mansion tremble.
"I remember the day the ... the flames marked me forever."
James showed everyone his shoulder burns, he had this burn the day his sisters set the church on fire, the bell from the heat was sizzling, and poor little James' shoulder touched her, searing a cross on her. James turned to the master of this joke and told him.
"You should not say the name of the Lord like this."
The wind shattered the windows of the mansion which had the effect of scaring everyone away.
"It's impossible!!."
"Help, he's a real ghost !!!!"
The master crawled on the floor, begging James.
"Please, ghost don't blame me ... it was a for-try, I didn't mean to bother you AAAHHH." The masters flee.
James was now alone in this huge mansion, alone... No, because he felt that he was being watched, he turned around and saw four ghostly figures watching him.
"Hey, I know you!" Said, James
These figures were that of the family who lost their lives on the Lord's day but yet they stood in front, but he was no longer the same, their clothing all like their entire body blackened by the flames and a light black smoke emitted of their hair. The father's eyes were now two empty holes, and the mother had a melancholy face, the eldest son was missing the right part of the face while his twin sister was his lower jaw ... somebody was missing.
"You are the Carpenter family ... the one who died in the fire." tears rolled down James' face as he knew he was responsible for their fate (even though it was his sisters who started the fire).
James kept talking
"I… I never wanted this… I… I just wanted to go to church like everyone else… like you."
James continued to cry in front of the ghosts.
"I knew you would be there...I wanted to introduce myself to you..but my sisters caught me ... when it was all over ... when everyone was out...I looked everywhere for you but nothing ... All I have found is this. "
James while the ghosts a small package in which this find metal rattle that had miraculously survived the flames.
"Since that day, I keep it on me, silently so it doesn't make noise… so that no one finds it.
... James burst into tears
"I'm so sorry, it's My fault you aren't here anymore." James hit his chest. "It's My fault the church caught fire." James hit his chest again "It's My fault your baby isn't with you anymore ..."
James looked at the ghosts again
"Why was it me who survived and not you ..."
James was going to hit himself again but the father stopped him, the mother, she took the rattle and hugged it to her heart. for a moment James was illuminated by a white light when he opened his eyes the family was still in front of him ... but they were all there in their beautiful Sunday clothes, it looked like they were still alive. The father had his arms resting on his children while the mother held her baby who was again with his family, the mother looked at James and said
"Thank you." Just before disappearing, finally joining the paradise.
James watched them go, once this was over James knelt down and prayed that the family would never be separated again then he stood up and yelled.
"Sniff..Sniff ... Haaaaaaaaaaa."
The next day
James woke up, he had spent all night in the mansion.
"Dad must be worried, I need to get home soon."
But before leaving James took the family portrait and hung it up on the wall. He went towards the exit but he tripped over something.
" What's this?"
James took the object and recognized the rattle.
"I know where he needs to go." James looked at the painting and said.
"When it's my turn to go all the way up, I hope we see each other and can finally introduce ourselves ... Goodbye." Then James finally left.
Back to present
“And this is my ghost story.” James wiped away the only tear that ran down his face.
"I hope you liked it and don't forget to have a happy Halloween, Me...I have something to do."
James got up, extinguish his campfire, and left.
Ponyvile cemetery
James went to the graves of the Carpenter Family more specifically to her mother and buried next to the rattles, finally ending the story. James left the cemetery and headed west but before he glanced one last at us and said.
"HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE." and finally left
THE END.
Author's Note
Hi everyone, it's me HERE FOR THE GOLD SKIES thanks for reading this special Halloween story, it makes me extremely happy that people read and like it.
Have a happy Halloween and goodbye.
Ps: the passage with the ghosts turned me into a big depressed larva, I cried several times.👻
Hello folks, it's time for a new Halloween story presented by your favorite speaker...Me
...
Let's start!
Like every year the Apples organize a ball in their barn, the musicians played while the inhabitants danced and laughed, all were dressed up because Halloween is not Halloween if no one is dressed up, it goes without saying, but each year little has noticed that there are recurring monsters, let's count them...I see 2 Frankenstein Monsters, 4 Werewolves, a dozen skeletons and pumpkins for the little ones.
-But there is one who is missing, yet the most classic, although a bit old-fashioned, of course, I'm talking about...Vampyr, this being who appears in the night, drinking off the blood of his victims and who the day takes flight. Brought up to date by a certain Bram Stoker who invented a certain "Count Dracula" Those who said that "He's just a vulgar vampyr like the others!" is an insult to the complexity of the characters. An immortal being desiring eternal life but questioning the choices he made, a being torn between two worlds: that of the living and the dead, that of good and evil. Is he a bloodthirsty beast Or a man who strayed from the path he was taking and ended up sinking into darkness... So many questions that will go unanswered because it's just not the hour so have a glass of lemonade and some candy and let me tell you a story
Halloween 3: Season of the Vampyr
Every morning, nine-year-old James woke up early, very early, it was still dark outside but it was necessary because the nearest school was the one in the nearby town which was several kilometers from the house.
-, you might think that it would frighten him, but not at all because it was his favorite moment of the day because he could see the sunrise, the smell the morning dew (difficult when you live in the desert) at the beginning when he was younger it was his father who took him to school and who also came to pick him up once this one was over, but very quickly his mother ordered him to fend for himself,
"If he wants to go to school, he goes alone" At first, his father didn't like the idea but he had to accept it when James' grandfather. Salomon said that it would be good for his grandson to do the travel alone
"I did the same at his age, he will become strong."
So the notion was adopted and James was notified of the change.
At first, he was sad because he was no longer with his father but he comforted him by telling him that he was very proud that his son went to school unlike his sisters who stopped to home school with like private teachers their mother who taught them everything she knew
- Hearing these words James puffed up his chest and swore he would know the wisest student and that he would bring back lots of good notes under the amused gaze of his father, he made this promise when he was seven years old and continued to respect it.
"Come on James, there are a lot of roads and you mustn't be late."
Thus began his day disappearing into the night without even having to bring a torch to light it because doing this path every day he ended up knowing the road like the back of his hand, this is one of the few advantages he acquired, that and if he's hungry on the way, the cacti make a great snack, you just have to be careful with the thorns.
Dawn
James continues his road without stopping because it must be admitted that in the desert there is rarely animation, especially in the morning when it is still dark but sometimes interesting things can happen: James had the chance to see a shooting star, funny shapes on the moon and the weirdest fact he kept to himself was the saucer-shaped object with lots of light he saw flying up into the sky, what a funny unidentified flying objects. But these are just distractions, as the trip soon comes to an end as James gets closer to what he calls "The Shaped Rock Sir" This rock is a landmark for him as it means the town is not more than a few kilometers away and the sun will rise soon.
"Hello rock." He continued on his way then suddenly his body was imbued with a shiver, he turned around but there was nothing behind him, just the rock. This same rock that sees every morning but the more he looked at it, the more this one seems deformed, growing every second. James had his gaze fixed on him, he could not take his eyes off him, he had the impression that the rock was looking at him also... Then two red eyes opened
"AHHHHH!!!!!" James screamed at the top of his lungs, the strength having re-filled his body he ran towards the city to escape the red-eyed thing.
- A black mass took off in the sky and began to pursue it, in the black sky we could not see it, the only point of reference we had was the screams which raged the calm of the desert "SCREEE"
"DAD!!!! MOM!!!! HELP!!!!!!" it was then that James saw the edge of the city in the distance. Too far away, he heard the screams getting closer and he was starting to get tired and tiredness makes us make mistakes because James made a bad move and fell to the ground. This mistake had condemned him, he tried to get up but he couldn't and the screams were getting louder and louder.
"SCREEEE!!!!" " It" was there
All seemed lost, he was going to die in darkness and fear. James looked at the horizon hoping to see someone arrive, but help did not arrive and rather "Rise" because the sun rose and its light illuminated the desert, banishing the darkness but the beast continued to scream but they seemed like plaintive and disappeared into the shadows. Only remain James, alone in the desert
A normal day
The sun was rising over the city which was slowly waking up, the merchants were opening their shops, the saloon was pouring its first beers and we can he hear the old Buzzard Hooffield complaining. "I found one of my beasts dead this morning, it's the third this month. If I find the vermin that does that, it's me who will bleed him out!!"And the church bells rang announcing the start of the day for everyone and in the middle of that James who was walking in the street, covered in dirt, tired of his chase but the most important thing alive, you would have thought who would have turned him around to go home but NO! He had decided to go to school and he was not the only one, other children took the same path as him to the dismay of some parents who preferred that their children stay at home to do household chores but education is most important, sorry.
- "Hello children" This voice was that of the only teacher in town, Ms. Cherilee who, from a young age, knew how to deal with children. "Come on, get together, classes are starting."
The children gathered and sat down noisily in the classroom.
- "Is everyone seated? All right then, take out a sheet of paper and your pencils, we're going to start with a dictation." Sounds of indignation were heard throughout the class, which irritated Ms. Cherilee.
"Stop complaining, you'll thank me later for teaching you new words so let's get started." But one child was not ok "It's dead, I don't do that!"
-Spike Drake, 9 years old and 1 meter 58 of anger and disgust towards society and its rules. "Spike!!!" Said Ms. Cherilee "You will take a sheet of paper like everyone else and you will listen and write otherwise the dunce cap for you!!" "ARHHH!!!!" and Spike did like everyone else.
And so the day passed without any problem, School was over and it was time for James to go home.
help from heaven
James walked with more difficulty due to the fatigue of the end of the day, but he had to hurry and not waste time because the sun was already starting to weaken and set, seeing this James panicked and started to run.
- " No...No,no,no.."
SCREEEEEE!!!!
- The "thing" was back and this time the sun was not going to stop it this time, The little boy ran and ran under the cries of the thing which decided not to wait any longer and swooped down on James
SCREEE!!!!!
-" LAY DOWN!!!!!" A man screamed at the top of his lungs then threw a flaming bottle at the creature, igniting it and revealing a beast with two huge bat-like wings. The monster let out howls of pain and went off into the night leaving the smell of skin burning in its wake.
The stranger immediately walked over to James who was on the ground, - "Let's see" and the stranger examined James' neck in search of something. "Nothing...What are you doing here, kid?"
James got up, wiped away his tears, and told his story to the man who had saved him. He looked at James and said- "Get on my horse, I'll take you home but not a word about what you saw, to anyone...they won't believe you." and James replied "Okay sir"
James was saved and escorted home by a strange man who looked like he had faced this kind of creature before.
.- "Sir." Said, James. What's your name." The stranger remained silent for an instant, then he decided to speak.
- " Gabriel, its my name"
A new day
In his room James was sleeping with closed fists, nothing seems to disturb him, whether it be the noise of the whistling wind or that of his family upstairs, nothing could wake him up but he had to get up because someone descended by the 'scale leading to his room
- "James ... Wake up, you have to visit Lady Báthory." It was his father. James woke up with difficulty, he didn't want to leave his bed and Mr. Chicks but he had to.
- Yawn !!!! "Oh, I forgot ... I coming ."
" Good."
His father left and immediately James left his bed and dressed before going to the kitchen and having breakfast composed of a slightly buttered home bread as well as a glass of milk and a green apple that 'He put in his satchel for later. After this breakfast he went to join the city because to go to the Báthory house he had to cross the city and continue on a path leading to the top of the hill overlooking Ponyville, the manor is there.
- James made the way he made every morning, he crossed the city and noticed the horse of the stranger that's saved him last night, this one was black from the dress to the mane, and this one shone in the sun. James approached him and began to speak to him.
"Do you remember me? I remember you, thank you for transporting me the last night." He took out the apple he had put away in his pocket and gave it to the horse that sniffed it before eating it.
- "Hihih, it's good, right?" He continued to watch the horse eat without even noticing that someone was behind him. "His name is emperor"
James returned and saw that it was the man from last night. " Mr. Gabriel!!!"
Immediately Gabriel put his hand over James's mouth and motioned to be quiet with his index finger before speaking.
"Sorry for the sudden movement but I wish no one to know my name." He took his hand away from James. To the people here my name is John Doe and I'm a historian specializing in ancient nobility. ?" This one was in a three-piece suit and a top hat, he carried a satchel filled with old-looking books and tinted glasses.
-James nodded
"Good. He opened a satchel hanging from the emperor's saddle, took a small package, and gave it to James. Here, this will protect you." And James opened the small package which contained a rosary whose cross shone in the sun, normal it was silver. This amazed James
"Wow!!" Gabriel smiled and said, "They're afraid of Silvers, I have to leave you now, some things have to be done ." I have to leave you now, some things need to be done and I imagine you too, so take care of yourself." With these words, he left and James did the same.- "Enough chatting, Lady, Báthory must wait for me."
Mistress of the house
The road to the Báthory mansion is winding because it is more of a path traced by man on the earth without really intending to do anything with it, imagine a gardener who digs part of his land but who later abandons it, leaving it to the prey of weeds and other undesirables. He continued on the path which now had become a slope, he tired and sat down on a stone. He opened his satchel and pulled out a canteen and took a big sip of water.
-"Ahh...It feels good." James got up and resumed his journey which soon came to an end because once the slope was up, he saw the mansion. - "I wonder if it's haunted?"
- To go to the front door of the Manor, there was a flowery alley of all the colors which stop and start again on one meter, and between each cut, there were statues of men and women of various social status. He ended up finding himself in front of the entrance door, which was composed of two arched wooden doors with lion heads on each door with gilded rings in their mouths as a knocker.
Knock Knock
James used the knocker and waited for someone to open it and shortly after the door was opened by Lady Báthory's butler, Ferenc Georges De Cachtice "third of the name.
- "Who's there? He lowered his head Oh! It's you again, my Lady is waiting for you. Don't make her wait any longer, she's having her tea in the garden"
James entered the Manor and thanked him "Thank you Mr. Ferenc "and he hurried to join her because he loves the little cakes that accompany the tea.
- Once in the mansion, he had to go to the garden through the left corridor which was adjacent to the front door, he had to continue straight and then take the glass door leading to the garden. Roses, tulips, and lilacs coexist together just like the butterflies and bees that forage on them and there was even a small pond where ducks and geese frolic in the water, and at the bottom of this huge garden, there was a tent specially set up for tea time. Tea that James will enjoy with Lady Báthory.
-"You are late young man, the tea is starting to get cold and I hate it being lukewarm."
Lady Báthory arrived in Ponyville two years ago, a descendant of an ancient lineage from a distant kingdom, she found it difficult to integrate into the landscape of the desert and the plains as well as the population who consider her haughty. Her mansion was at the end of construction when she met James Senior and Junior, who were having a picnic in what would become her garden. Lady Báthory approached them, confused to see them on her property and that's when they introduced themselves, wanting to apologize in their own way James Senior offered to help finish the work as well as for the gardening and planting flowers.
-" Excuse me, I had a few things to do in town but it won't happen again." - "I hope.."
And so they spent the afternoon drinking tea, playing cards, and helping with the housework of this great mansion. This occupied their day and when it was over, the sun went down.
- "Thank you for this beautiful day, Lady Báthory, but I'm going to have to go home, otherwise my family will be worried." but She had other plans-"You're not going out at such an hour. She rang a bell in order to call Ferenc, who arrived shortly after" Added a plate, tonight there will be young blood.
masquerade
All were seated, Ferenc had gone to the kitchen to get his mistress's favorite soup (these had been placed on the fire since the morning because a good soup must simmer for several hours) while James nibbled on small bites of bread.
"You will lose your appetite from nibbling, the dish will arrive soon so sit down properly and don't put your elbows on the table." James obeyed and set the tables correctly and that's when Ferenc finally came up with it.
"Here's supper, be careful it's very hot, so we don't touch!" He said looking at James who had a bad habit of touching hot objects. He removed the lid and a cloud of steam emanated from it and a smell filled the room. Lady Barthody then said- "Serve the little one first, he must be... Hungry." Ferenc replied smiling "Very well Lady, your plate young man" James gave her his plate and Ferenc filled it before putting it back in front of James. He looked at the, this one was brown and seemed thick. He sniffed it and grimaced, the smell was strong and even when smelling it, an acrid taste was felt in his mouth.
The butler served his mistress and him last, he sat down then Lady Báthory declared that we could begin, they tasted their meal with delicacy and elegance, all except James who dared not touch his dish, Lady Báthory remarked it , then it was the butler's turn.-"Is there a problem, young man? That doesn't suit you, do you want something else? to our.. She paused before finishing her sentence Guest." The old butler smiled and immediately carried out his mistress's order.
-"James" Said Lady Báthory Do you know why we came to Ponyville and not elsewhere?" He nodded to say no "A long time ago, my family will host a stranger in our family castle, in exchange, he gave us a gift you couldn't refuse. She tasted her soup violently. His gift changed us and made us stronger, faster... fierce. But this has a backlash, our tastes have changed and the food seemed tasteless and without the one we needed we perish. Her eyes redden and talons seemed to come out of her hands. We had no choice, our survival was necessary, we were the Báthory and they were nobody!!! She screamed before plunging her hands into her plate and slurping "the soup"
You escaped me last night so I had to. She licked her hands to get as much liquid as possible I had to fall back on cow's blood to quench my thirst and She looked up and smiled And I've had enough!!!"
-"Ahhhh!!! Ferenc grabbed James and threw him on the ground, then he snatched a decorative weapon hanging from the wall before brandishing it above him ready to deal a fatal blow to his young victim-"No!!!" "Ahhhh !!!
But the maneuver was interrupted when the stained glass windows in the dining room shattered into a thousand pieces, one by one. Taking advantage of the distraction, James fled under the gaze of Lady Báthory who immediately yelled at her butler-"What waits for a brainless servant, catch him and kill him!!" "With pleasure !" he said while removing a piece of glass that was lodged in his face, leaving a wound that immediately closed.
Hunter
James ran through the manor looking for a hiding place, he searched all the rooms in the hope of finding a cupboard in which he would hide but nothing to do and it was becoming more and more present as he could hear Fenrec's voice it was like- "Where are you, little lambs? I promise you, it won't hurt as much as it looks!" He arrived in the pantry and noticed that there was space behind a shelf, he moved it all over and slipped behind it. “He won't find me here. But on contact with the back wall, it opened onto a staircase, and not knowing that James fell and tumbled down the stairs “Ahhhh!” fortunately the staircase was not long and he tumbled about twenty steps but that was enough to hurt him." Ouch! My ARM!!" He lifted up and saw that it was stained but it wasn't dirt, it was- "Blood... Why is there blood on the floor." He then saw that the staircase leads to a bloody corridor, he then walked thinking that he would find an exit. He dragged himself with difficulty and saw a door at the end of the corridor, he accelerated his step and opened the door but what was behind was not an exit. There were bodies suspended from the ceilings, hung by hooks connected by chains like the carcasses of animals sold by the butcher. In front of this macabre spectacle, James could not hold back and vomited his breakfast.
- "I'm going to have to clean up, thank you for the work! -" Oh no!!" The butler found him, he lifted him with one hand and entered the "pantry". last week tried to rob Lady Báthory. You're going to join them." He took an empty hook and prepared to hang James on it. James struggled with the meager strength he had left, but he had nothing to do. He was doomed.
-" Please help me... Said James in a plaintiff and low tone " Ferenc smiled and said, "Hehehe, poor thing who loses his mind, I can't help you."
but another voice was heard.- "It wasn't for you." Ferenc was startled and turned around only for Gabriel to drive a wooden stake through his heart. "Now die!" Ferenc let out a howl of pain before convulsing, he sinks to the ground before igniting. Turned into nothing more than a pile of ash - "I warned you I'd find you, you monster. Gabriel took a handful and put it in a pouch before going to see James who was lying on the ground, he was probably passed out from pain I arrived late, sorry he knelt on the ground, lifted James's head, and took out of one of his coats two vials, one was pale yellow and Emanating a light smoke and the other was bright green, he put the yellow one under the nose of James those who immediately woke him up- "Ugh!!! It smells like rotten eggs!!!" " The smell of sulfur could wake the dead. He held out the green vial to James. Drink that, it's not very pleasant but you'll feel better afterward. He drank the vial and his whole body writhed and grimaced, but it was invigorating Mandrake root and absinthe... Effective but bitter, get up, we have a job to finish
End
Gabriel and James came out of the mass grave and they were determined to face the hostess. Gabriel put down the suitcase he had taken with him and spoke "James when we are in front of her, I want you to go away, that you run as quickly as possible and above all that you do not look back no matter what you don't turn around. He looked him straight in the eyes and said You promise me that." James didn't know what to answer to that and he didn't have time because Lady Báthory was waiting for them, she was standing in front of them, her body emanating hatred and death, and her eyes. Oh if there were guns...
They would have died on the spot
-" What have you done with my servant? Gabriel took the pouch, opened it, and blew all its contents in the direction of Lady Báthory This servant was in our family since my childhood more than 587 years ago. On those Gabriel resumed Everything has an end, even you know it.- But who are you at the end?! He looked at her and said in an almost inaudible voice
-Van Helsing."
Hearing this name, Lady Báthory turned into a creature from a nightmare, two huge bat wings came out of her back, and her once crystal blue eyes turned into blood-red orbs. It was her. the beast that tried to kill James two nights ago, it was there and it let out a scream that no words can describe
- "James go away!!! Gabriel drew his revolver and shot at Lady Bàthory but his silver bullets did not stop him and he was thrown violently in the air before being caught by the bone growth of one of the wings of the beast before it had fun using it as a hammer and hammered everything that crossed its path, it reduced the dining table to lint, and everything that was on it was thrown everywhere in the room and unfortunately the candles serving as a source of light land near the curtains and set them on fire, creating a fire that would consume the mansion.
James was ordered to flee but he couldn't, Gabriel saved his life twice and it was out of the question to leave this monster alive but he didn't know how to do it, the bullets didn't do anything and the Attacking with a simple piece of wood would be suicide but that's when he noticed Gabriel's suitcase,- Yes, there will be useful things in it. He rummaged in it in a hurry because smoke began to appear and the flames were getting bigger and bigger and he ended up finding a bottle where "holy water" was written on it.
-"Yes... Hey Lady!! The creature then looked at James, it still had Gabriel in its legs, this one's clothes were torn, he was covered in blood and struggling to stay conscious but barely managed to speak-" No....you should have... Should have run..."
She drop him on the floor - Take that!!! And James threw the bottle at Lady Báthory, thinking she was going to shatter on her but she caught it and made a sound similar to a laugh "Not bad kid" Gabriel raised his gun and fired at the bottle which exploded and covered it with holy water releasing howls of pain. blessed burned her skin and made her melt but she was still alive, hideous and deformed but alive but it was not going to last because the water spread in her body and burned from the inside.
- The framework began to crumble and soon the whole mansion was going to collapse. James went to Gabriel's side and helped him up to escape. Quick !!! We have to go!!! And he hurried to reach the exit but Lady Báthory wasn't done yet, she rushed at them with her remaining strength but someone somewhere seemed to have had enough of this and a beam fell on her, putting her down once, and for all. Gabriel released a smile and managed to get out of the mansion.
"Finally. ..James?" He was staying inside, he wanted to be there for Lady Bathory's last moments. This one did not move, the beams crushed her and only her head was still visible James approached and her eyes opened, she looked at him, and without saying James took the rosary he had on and put it around her. before leaving for good.
hello sunshine
The sun rise, announcing a new day. The mansion was no more and our two protagonists watched the sky take on its blue color, Gabriel preparing to leave but first he had to say goodbye to the person who started it all - "I must leave, this old lady and her lackey aren't the only ones in this world and someone has to take care of that. He rode emperor, looked at the horizon, and said to James I heard siren rumors in Balthimares, I have to go check it out for myself, goodbye."
And so he left, leaving James alone, in a world full of unknowns and mystery.
Back to present
-" the story has more, of course, I must have forgotten some passages but the most important is quoted. I wish you a happy Halloween and do not forget, there is no monster under the bed only in the shadows."
Author's Note
Happy Halloween my friends!!!!
2. Halloween 2 Demonic Boogaloo
In the shadow of a dilapidated street, shapeless beings move silently, fleeing from the men who haunt the streets in search of blood, the moon reflected in a puddle of grime-stained water.
The beings observed the world around him and saw helpless prey, he observed him and approached, hiding in the shadows, the only thing he knew. It was then that he attacked.
"HAAAA, I'm going to drink your blood !!!"
Or is it a kid who was waiting for the right moment to scare his friend.
"Hihihi, I scared you hihihi." The little joker was proud of his prank.
"Not even true, your too bad."
"Oh don't cry, let's go get some candy."
" Yes!!!"
It was then that he ran through the streets to decorate, Jack-o-lantern, Bat, and other witches were hanging on all the houses and shops.
"This is the end of Christianity, my friends, this pagan holiday corrupts the minds of our children and they become practitioners of black art." The new priests don't seem to like this holiday.
"Father, calm yourself down, this is just a holiday like any other." Say Octavia, it was her who was in charge of the Music for this Hollyday
"NO my children, this holiday is the work of the demons who wish to come back to earth and feed our souls."
then the priest returned to his church and closed it, which did not bother the people in the street.
"Hihihi ... Watch out!" The child try to prevent his friends of an imminent danger.
"What? Ouch .." The child not having looked ahead, bumped into a man.
"Ouch." He fell to the ground and his friend ran up to him but the man was already in front of him.
"Are you ok?" then the man raised him up, He was dressed in a long black cloak which covered his whole body and a white mask hid his face, although this simple custom frightened the two children.
"Y ... Yes, im okay."
"C...ome on, w .... we have more houses to visit." they expected to go away but the man held them back.
"Wait." Then the man put his hand in his coat, the children were scared for fear that he would pull out a weapon but instead he took out two chocolate bars.
"Here" He gave them to the children.
" Happy Halloween."
" Thank you sir."
"Yes, thank you very much." And they left, greeting the stranger who walked to the most popular candy store in town. The SugarCube Corner because, during this period, this shop becomes the number 1 supplier of sweets in Ponyville.
"Fallout, don't be stingy and pay me some fucking candy, man !!!" Spike yelled at his (only) friend.
"No Spike, I'm not paying you candy, you're not a little boy anymore so no candy." Fallout is not happy.
"You are a shit and I've always told you that ..." It was then that Spike looked at a bucket of candy in the store, went silent for three seconds before stealing it and rushing off.
"HAHAHAHA."
"COME BACK HERE, SPIKE !!!!!!!!" and he ran after him. But let's come back to our mysterious stranger who entered the store ... and immediately emerged with chocolate. He headed out of town and joined a campfire. He looked at the camera then took off his mask revealing our favorite hero.
"Ah, it's good to breathe, oh are you still there? So my friends, do you want me to tell you a new Halloween story?"
" No answer"
"So let's start, south of Equestria is the desert and in this desert, there is a remote place called" the devil's canyon and in this canyon, there is a cave ".
" Many rumors have circulated in this place, human sacrifices at the top of the mountains, ancient traces of an unknown race ... voices of beings who are no longer of those worlds. This is the 'devil Canyon', but a while ago I ventured there because ... I wanted to find someone, I was aware of the rumors about the voices, I knew it was only rumored but I wanted to try, that's where I saw things ... which are not of this world. "
James looked away, then looked at the camera again.
" Here is the story."
Flashback
In the desert, a cloud of dust could be seen in the distance, that it became bigger and bigger, indicating the direction of the rider, this one to move at full speed on his mount, the rider was going in a direction which was forbidden for many people, whether those are the great authorities of Canterlot or the many tribes who live in the desert all know that one should not go to this place but this rider did not care. The sky was darker and darker in the canyon, he looked for the cave, once he got there, he got off his mount and retired scarf that covered his face to protect him from the dust, revealing James Jr Kallacity.
"Wait for me here, I'll be back soon."
He was different from the James we know, his gaze was filled with determination but also sadness. James found himself just outside the entrance to the cave, it was not just an opening in the red stone that made up the mountains, James looked at her and decided to enter. James then found himself inside, he walked forward, well stopped dead and he felt that the path stopped, it was dark and the visibility was almost zero, James decided to light an oil lamp, he then looked at its feet and saw the void.
"I should have expected it, let's see if there is not another way."
It was then that he saw a path descending to the depths, this one was in a spiral, he decided to take it.
"Where is he heading?"
the further James descended, the more traces of ancient civilization appear on the walls, describing the first inhabitant of the desert fighting unknown beings.
"What was going on here? What happened to the inhabitants?"
It was then that James came to the end of the road.
"Mmmh, a dead end, I should turn around and go home, they must be waiting for me." It was then that a beam of light dazzled James, the cul-de-sac was actually a path that collapsed.
"I guess I have to continue this way."
It was then that he withdrew the stones which blocked his way, once all the stones to withdraw the light burst out.
" Impossible."
James could not believe his eyes, the path had led him to a place unknown to all, he walked through this place, walking cautiously, observing all around him, he noticed the presence of habitation digging in the stone, he was in a village.
"Surely the first inhabitants."
He stopped to take a sip of water when suddenly.
"Someone help me!!"
James spat out his water and drew his gun.
" WHO SAID THAT?!" It was the voice of a child, more precisely of a young girl.
"Who are you and above all, where are you?"
James was starting to get scared.
"Help me, I'm locked up somewhere and I'm scared."
"Don't be scared kid, I'm coming." James listening only to his courage ran through the village, listening to the girl's voice to spot her, then the ground crumbled beneath him.
"AHHHHHHH"
Sometime later
"Ah, it hurts so bad."
James relapsed with difficulty and looked around.
"Little one, where are you?"
James stepped forward when something creaked under his feet.
" What is this?"
It was then that he noticed that the ground was littered with skulls and other limbs.
" Oh my God!!!" James then fell to the ground, shock and the sight of the carnage knocking him off balance.
"Ok .... ok James, it's probably just a catacomb...Kid where are you?"
James waited a moment when a voice sounded.
"Can you hear me?"
"Yes I can hear you, I am coming."
James continued to walk into the catacombs when he came to a huge stone door, it was engraved with many ancient inscriptions and symbols, you could feel heat emanating from it.
"What's a door doing there? Who put it there?"
But strangely James only wanted to open it, He put his hand on it and it opened and James covered his face to protect himself from the heat emanations.
".... ok, I'm going to pretend everything is normal, kiddo, can you hear me?"
"Yes sir, I can hear you, hurry up, please, I am scared and I'm feeling sleepy."
The child's voice was easier to hear. Hearing these words, James' face showed an expression of fear, he had to hurry to avoid the worst. James walked through the door and now found himself in a stone path, he followed him and came to rocky plains, stone mounds were everywhere and a fine mist emanating from the ground, but the strangest thing is that James seemed to hear voices that complain.
"This place is getting more and more strange .... my god I feel like I'm losing my mind, there is the child and now I hear voices."
James continued to walk and walk, and eventually arrived in front of a colossal statue, this one representing a bearded man wearing only a white toga, a crown dressed his head but the most disturbing was the huge snake that rests on the shoulders of the statue.
James looked at it, he was intrigued suddenly the statue lowered its head causing the ground to shake.
"An earthquake here? !!!" James tried to flee but the ground slipped under his feet, he was only on a small slab of stone.
The statue spoke
"YOU DO NOT HAVE YOUR PLACE IN MY LIMBS." Then the statue swept his arm away from James, causing him to fall into the void.
"NO !!!!!!" James didn't scream for him, no but he screamed because he couldn't save the children
.....
"Hehehe"
The screams fade away then nothing more
Chapter 2: Wrath
Plic ploc plic ploc
"Hmmm"
Plic ploc plic ploc This noise was the sound of the falling rain
"Hmmm ... water?"
James awoke with difficulty, he had landed in a muddy bed, this one starting to sink slowly, then he finally stood up
"Where I am .... the child!" James looked around.
"little one where are you?" He started to run but it was difficult, it was then that the rain fell harder a real Dilluvian rain.
"Where are you? !!!, answer me !!!" James couldn't see anything anymore, he stopped running to catch his breath but he fell.
"Arggh !!!" James was going to rise up but he saw something that stopped him dead.
" Impossible?"
James saw men, women, and even children ... submerge in the water, this struggling to rise to the surface.
"... Quick, grab my hand !!!"
James plunged his hand into the water hoping someone could catch it, but he had nothing to do.
"Why? WHY CAN'T I SAVE ANYBODY !!!" James started kicking the water, throwing it in the air, he was angry but suddenly he thought he heard something.
"Mister ... help" James stopped then yelled.
"Who's talking?"
The rain drowned out all the noise but James concentrated
"Help .... me, please."
He finally heard the voice.
"Yes ... Yes, she's still alive !!!! I'm coming, I'll save you." it was then that he saw a huge wall in the distance.
"Yes, that's where she is."
James then jumped into the water and swam as fast as possible, despite the rain, despite the force of the torrent, James continued to swim, it was then that he finally arrived at the other end. The wall resembles a huge rampart like those of a city.
"Where is she?" It was then that he saw the bars at the bottom of the wall.
"There !!!"
James then rushed over to the bars, kneeling down to look inside ... and he finally saw the child.
"You!!!"
James' scream scared the child, who hid in a corner.
"No !!! don't hurt me..please!"
James saw how scared she was.
"No! Don't be afraid, it's me. I'm going to deliver from your torment." James then hit the bars with all his might.
"NO!!!" seeing that it did nothing, he decided to take a stone ... and he began to burst the wall.
" YES YES!!!!!"
James continued and he finally managed to tear down the wall, he threw the gate back and plunged into the hole. He walked cautiously, he did not see her ... it was then that he heard a noise. He turned around and saw the children, hiding from him.
"Hey, Hey it's me, look..I'm like you.
It was then that the child stopped hiding and appeared in front of James, it was a little girl, she was wearing a white lace dress with a red bow at the waist, she had curly hair ... she was in was crying and his wrists were bloody from the chains attached to them. James knelt down, he took her hands very gently.
"Oh my god… who did this to you, who's the monster that can do this to an innocent child."
It was then that this one started to cry and James hugged her to calm her down.
"Don't worry, you're free now." James tried to hide it but tears ran down his face.
"Listen to me carefully, we have to go, but we are going to have to come out through the hole I made ... do you think you have the strength to do it?"
the child nodded.
"Very well ... let's go." James got her out of jail then it was his turn. Once outside, the rain continued to fall but it was less strong than earlier.
" Take this." James took off his coat and gave it to the children.
She hesitated a moment, but she took it.
"....Thank you."
"Now we have to get out of this place."
James and the children walked along the wall hoping to find a way out but suddenly the child started to cry.
"IN THE SKY!!!!" It was then that three winged figures appeared in the sky and rushed towards them.
"QUICK !!!! WE MUST GO."
It was then that James took the child in his arms and ran with all his might, the winged figures came closer and faster and the children hugged James with all his might, it was then that they got there. an immense door which was engraved
"che the anima col corpo morta fanno".
"PLEASE OPEN US !!!!"
James banged on the door, they could hear their pursuer's laughter when suddenly a beam of light lit the door, which opened allowing them to escape. You could hear the anger of the pursuers.
Chapter 3: Heresy
James and the children barely entered the town.
"Ah ... Ah, I'm starting to get fed up with monsters and other living statues .... Are you okay?"
James looked at the children who also looked at him then smiled.
"... T ... Thanks you .... I ... It's the first time someone has treated me so kindly."
James looked at her then walked over to her and pat her head
"You don't have to thank me, it was natural for me to protect you."
The girl didn't know what to say, then James heard a noise, like growls.
" What is that?!" James looked around then looked at the child who was blushing.
"... You must be hungry."
James searched his satchel then took out a bar of chocolate which gave to the children.
"Here, I hope you like it."
The child took the tablet, took a piece of it. She ate it then she looked at James then offered it to him, He smiled then took a bite.
"I still haven't asked you what's your name? Me it's James Jr Kallacity and you?"
The child hesitated then said
"Laura ... My name is Laura."
"Alright Laura, it's time to get out of here."
And the two heroes crossed the city which seemed deserted then arrived in a big place, Laura was behind James who told her not to advance.
"Close your eyes, Laura, you mustn't see this. I… I will help you move forward."
James hugged Laura and then crossed the square ... where a huge blaze burned mounds of bodies.
".... Where is God?"
They finally left town and came to a steep ravine which was their only way to continue.
"... We're going to have to go downstairs. Stay close to me, okay."
Laura nodded
Once at the bottom, they found themselves in front of a lake, the water of this one was red, it intrigued James who approached and held out his hand.
"... the lake is boiling ... but it is not water but .... blood." James stepped back and saw a rowboat.
"... Laura listens to me, you are going to get in the boat and put yourself in the center, I'm going to push and then I'm going to get in, ok."
"Ok, James"
James carried out his plan, he pushed the boat and climbed in.
"This boat doesn't look very sturdy but it's better than nothing."
Laura then handed James a paddle that was inside.
"Thanks, it's going to help us." And they continued on the lake, all passing without problems when the boat began to rock violently.
"HANG ON, LAURA !!!!"
"I AM AFRAID, JAMES !!!" The paddle fell off the boat and James tried to catch it
" NO!!!!!" He couldn't catch it and it burned his right hand.
"AHHHHHH !!!!
"James !!!!"
"It's okay, stay where you are Laura!"
It was then that they heard the sound of a waterfall, they looked at each other and James used his body as a shield to protect Laura.
"Everything's going to be okay Laura, I promise." Then the boat fell ... They didn't scream, because they knew that was the end.
Chapter 4: Betrayal
Ice, this was the only thing that we saw for miles, then in this frozen a small shape that moved with difficulty, it fell but it immediately relaunched to join an inert mass on the ice.
"J ... James, get up .... go, it's not funny, we have to go..James?"
The small form was Laura, she shook James with all her strength but without success, James could not breathe anymore… he had left us, this world got the better of him… On his face, tears had frozen.
"James."
Laura closed James's eyes and stayed there, she didn't have the strength to move forward
"Hehehe" A shadow appeared behind Laura
"N ... NO, not you !!!!"
She tried to escape it but she couldn't ... The shadow carried her away.
A voice was heard
"James ...... James, wake up my friend ..... It's not your time yet."
"GASP !!!!"
.... James had returned from the dead, He pinched himself to check if he was really alive.
"Ouch ... I'm alive but the cascade, I saw myself fall and hit the ground but."
James stopped talking then he spoke sadly
"My friend, I heard your voice... It should have been me ... Thank you for saving my life." Then James stood up, looked around and called Laura.
"Laura !!!! ... Laura where are you? !!"
It was then that James saw something on the ground
."No..."He rushed towards the object in question, Look at him .... and recognized the red ribbon adorning Laura's dress.
"..."
James' fist clenched, his whole body shaking with rage, spasms distorted his face, he tried to pick it up but this one teared up as if he too couldn't take it anymore. It was too much for James who will finally release his rage
"AAAAHHHHHHH .... AAAHHHHHHH !!!!!!"
James then hit the ground with his fists, he punched, punched until his hands broke and bloodied the ground.
"AAAHHHHHH ....... !!!!"
It was then that James stopped dead in his tracks, he trembled and twisted like a puppet that we control, he knelt down and dug the fractured ground.
"I ... I can't stop, why?"
And he continued, tearing off pieces of ice always bigger than the others. It was then that he felt a shake in the ground.
" Oh no." The ground burst beneath James, diving him into the freezing water. James sank, he couldn't move but strangely he couldn't feel the water entering his lungs, once he got to the bottom he passed through of it and enter a new lair.
"Cough-cough, I'm sick of water "
"James !!!!" It was Laura, this one was... chained to the top of a pillar
"Laura !!!! Don't move, I'll save you."
"No, stay where you are !!!"
It was then that the walls ignited .... Is that an immense indescribable entity made of the same flames erupted from the walls
" No." Laura was shaking with fear
The entity looked at Laura and was about to grab her when suddenly James screamed
"DON'T TOUCH HER !!!!!" James pulled out his gun and shot him
BANG-BANG-BANG
It was ineffective
"Hehehe, this is the first time someone has stood up for a demon."
James didn't understand
"A demon ?! Don't make fun of me. She's just a little girl !!"
"A little girl ??? Hehehe, you are such a naive boy."It was then that the entity raised its arm and flames set Laura ablaze .... But instead of burning it down, Laura revealed her true nature.
A woman with feet blackened by ashes, a tattered white dress, long black hair reaching down to her waist, her black teeth only stood out better from her face which was as pale as death ... her right eye was normal while a huge bloody wound covered all of his left side of his face.
"So COWBOY !!!! Here's the real Laura Saltonstall, HEHEHEH"
James was silent in front of this, he looked at Laura sadly. He wanted to talk but no words came out of his mouthThe entity could guess his thought, he read "Why", It laughed even more.
"HEHEHEH !!! because once out of my hell, she needed a body that she could use so that she could live Hehehehe again !!!!"
"Don't listen to him James, he's just a liar, don't trust him !!!"
"SILENCE !!!!! Here the liar is you !!!!"
"I know this story ."James finally spoke
"What did you say?"
"I said, I know his story."
James looked at Laura
"It was my grandfather who told me everything."
James took off his hat
"The Saltonstall family were settlers who had followed a Puritan priest who was banished from his community, the parents were convinced that the priest could save their souls from the evil one ... The priest knew this and abused his power to obtain everything he wanted, the families gave all they had, but the priest wanted more ... "
Laura bowed her head
"Laura resisted him and the priest did not appreciate ... He convinced his family that Laura was under the influence of the evil one and they ... they tortured her, locked her, and made her suffer the most heinous atrocities. ..My Grandfather, as well as the rest of the village only found out later"
...
"She freed herself from her chains, recovered her father's weapon, and massacred her family, and after she decided to town."
"Stop James ... please"
Laura begged him
"My grandfather was there, he was still a young child but he and the whole village were there when the Priest tried to justify his actions and turn the whole village against Laura ... But no one moved, the priest then began to beg God and even begged Laura for forgiveness but she heard nothing of that, she slaughtered him like an animal ... before turning the weapon against her.
"Stop !!!!! You don't know anything about my story so stop!"
The entity laughed
"Hehehe !!! You understand why she end up here."
"No…" James wasn't convinced of this.
"She does not deserve to be here, she only did this defending against all that she suffered, she does not deserve that!"
James took a deep breath
".... I deserve to be here, I did horrible things too, b ... but I chose to do them. I chose to derail a train! I have Choose to take a weapon and fight ... I chose to come here and save her !! "
"And," Said the entity
"... So take me."
"What did you say?"
"You heard me, let her go from this horrible world and take me !!!"
"No James, you don't have to do that !!!"
"Silence Laura, you don't deserve this, while I do !!!"
"YOU ARE JUST A Fool, CHILD !!!!!" The entity raised his fist and was about to crush James.
"NO !, Because I know who you are !!!"
The entity stopped and said
"What did you say?"
"I know who you are .... Lucifer, the son of the One whom he banished because he wanted to take his place. You were banished from heaven but your father loved you so he gave you a new chance as a Guardian of Hell, punisher of those who have sinned ... But you don't like that. "
James stepped forward
"You even changed your Name to no longer be under the tutelage of your father, you chose the Name of SATAN but that did not change anything ... I feel sorry for you, because your father loves you and you know it. "
James barely finished his sentence that Lucifer threw himself on him and took him into the depths of the flames.
Chapter 5: Redemptions
"AHHHHHHH !!!!" James at the top of his lungs then stopped
"... am I not dead?"
It was then that a man approached him, this one resembling the statue of men made during the renaissance period, wearing a simple white toga but what shocked the most was his face, he had features like those of children, blue eyes and red curly hair like those of cherubins
" You...."
"Yes, Lucifer the first son of God and guardian of this place ... cursed to eternity .... Why do you act like that, she lied to you and you ... You forgive her? Why? "
James smiled and put his arm on Lucifer's shoulder.
"I was forgiven when I had sinned, since that day I have a debt to someone that I could never fuffil ... I forgive her."
Lucifer smiles
"The day you leave the world of the living, I will make an exception and I will take you to Heaven myself, we can talk about the life you lived on the road."
"Thank you, my friend"
"Goodbye James."
It was then that he had a flash of light.
Chapter 6: Going Home
We had left Dante's Hell to find ourselves again in the arid desert of Equestria.
James woke up in the sand
"Humphhh .... what was it going on, I must have hit my head and ...." James noticed he was holding a ribbon in his hand.
"... Laura, I hope you're free now."
James let go of the ribbon which flew in the wind and disappeared in the distance, he walked towards his horse and saw in the distance a young woman in a white dress smiling at him.
" We're going back home."
...
"It was a long time ago but I will never forget this adventure, my friends it was my Halloween story I say goodbye to you and see you next time."
