Sorry guys that this took long to be uploaded, Have a nice read though.
A few hours earlier when the two had split up
It had been almost an hour from when Dark Pit had split off from Pit and he was by the outskirts of the town near the farmland. He doubted that any of the crops would be good to eat since he didn't know how to make bread from a bunch of wheat. He went into a nearby house to see if there was anything useful inside. The house seemed rather plain and was similar the house that Pit had seen. He walked around until he saw something in the corner of his eye. He walked over to only to find that it was a mirror that had reflected sun light into his eye. He walked closer to see his reflection, he look a lot more like Pit than he had thought. He didn't understand why he was so connected to Pit, he knew that Pit was lying that he bumped his head to forget everything. It couldn't have been chance that he looked to be a discolored double of Pit and have the connection that they have. The more he looked at the mirror he felt like he was getting tired and sleepy.
He saw a dark figure in the reflection of the mirror standing behind him, he turned as fast as he could to see that no one was there. The house was just as silent as it always was. This didn't stop his heart rate increasing. He felt like something was off but everything around him didn't seem to have changed. Pain was starting to form in his chest that tightened. He looked at the mirror again a he swore that he saw his reflect grin at him. He was sick of looking at the mirror and used all of his strength and energy to smash the mirror with his bare fist. Glass and blood scattered across the ground. He didn't have it in him to do anything else but lean against the wall and stare at the ground until he couldn't keep his eyes open anymore. He heard faint footsteps but it soon faded back into silence.
(Oh yay another dream text, luckily Pit has had his last "dream message")
Dark Pit wasn't happy when he woke up with his head feeling like it was exploding from the inside. He looked around to see it was the first room he had set eyes upon. It was the room with the mirror in it. Speaking of mirrors, Dark Pit looked to the center of the room to see that the mirror still stood proud. It was still chattered with glass shards on the floor but it was different. The mirror seemed to have started fixing itself. The bottom was no longer chattered and looked complete. A good third of the mirror looked as if it was in perfect condition. Dark Pit spotted one of the shards glowing and floating into the air. It went to the mirror and stuck itself down in place and the crack that that separated from the main mirror disappeared.
"Dark Pit" A voice hissed behind the angel, he turned around but nobody was there. Now he was really going crazy.
"I'm surprised you two were able to defeat my little guard but I'm disappointed that you have betrayed me. I don't tolerate traitors." The voice hissed again, it was clear to Dark Pit that she wasn't in the room.
"I don't serve anyone, I didn't betray anybody!" He shouted as he took out his bow.
"You had a mission, I guess that mirror shattered before you were completely. A flawed experiment but I can't deny that you are powerful, maybe even more powerful than the original. Why keep him when he's only making you weaker? You have to destroy him and since you've got him to trust you it will be easy to finish him"
"I don't take orders from you! I can't kill Pit without killing myself, I'm not an idiot like he is"
"I see where you defiance comes from now", the sound of snakes echoed in the room.
"What are you talking about?" Dark Pit didn't fully understand what she was talking about but he felt like pieces of the puzzle were starting to get fixed together. Things were becoming clear in his mind as if something missing was coming back.
"You haven't simply betrayed me, you have lost your memory. Your soul was never separated from that pitiful angel. Worry no, once I have completed the mirror then you will do as I say. This will not be our last meeting." The voice faded in the end.
Dark Pit didn't get a break to think as the room rapidly filled with blue flames. He ran for the exit and tried to get through but the exit was completely blocked and wouldn't budge. He watched as the flames almost reached his feet.
(End of dream)
When the dark angel woke up he tried to get up, not from fear but from being in a panic on having to get to Skyworld before the mirror is complete. He tried to get up but he couldn't, he heard some voices and opened his eyes. He was in a huge some or something, he looked at what stopped him from getting up. It was a human boy sitting on his back so he couldn't get up.
"Get off me!" Dark Pit growled. The boy didn't move and merely looked at the angel. The boy was at least double the size of the dark angel, he had long black hair. He was tanned and was muscular for his age.
"No way red eyes" the boy spoke loudly and looked at the others, "You're going to be here for a while."
Dark Pit was going to fight back and looked franticly around for his weapon but it was all the way on the wall at the other side of the room and there was nothing to grab to knock the human out. The dark angel treaded his fingers through his pitch black hair in frustration. He sighed in defeat since there was nothing he could do. The adrenaline started to wear off and the Dark angel started to take note of his surrounding more, he was in the middle of a rundown barn. The smell of straw was strong and he noticed that there were three other humans that were standing the room staring back at him with curiosity and interest.
Two girls and another boy, one girl was a blonde and the other was younger had light brown hair while the boy had shot brown hair who was younger than the blonde as well. They didn't interest Dark Pit very much, they didn't look like they would make a good fight. There was no point in fighting someone weaker than you unless they were in your way which was Dark Pit's logic.
"He talks, maybe he isn't working for the underworld army", the blonde said and she walked over to the boy keeping the angel in place. "Magnus, maybe we should let him up. If he could fight without his weapon then he would have attacked you but now since his hands are free." The girl spoke wise word for her size. Though he wouldn't admit it, the dark angel gained slight interest on the older two of the human.
The girl then grabbed Dark Pit's bow and threw it over Magnus who caught it easily. He then got up and let the angel free. The door was wide open but he couldn't leave without his bow. He simply got up and waited to see what they wanted with him. He needed to find Pit but he wouldn't be able to get to Medusa without a weapon, it would be suicide.
"I'm sorry if we surprised you, we had to make sure you was safe. We just want to ask you a few things and then we'll be on our way. Let us introduce ourselves. We're a group of mercenary. My name is Gaol." The girl went on though the angel didn't really care for their names or what they do but he kept his mouth shut, he understood when you should or shouldn't say anything. The now named Gaol carried on, "you see the big guy, his name is Magnus. Those two over there are Sofia and Alexandra"
"That's great and all but I don't have time to have a picnic you know. I have places to go" his feathers ruffled slightly.
Magnus held onto his sword since the angel seemed to be becoming hostiles but Gaol gave him a reassuring look which made him back down.
"Okay, I get it. You want to leave but we'll decide if you can after you answer the question or you can leave without your weapon". She thought she heard the dark angel mutter idiot humans but she could understand why he wouldn't be happy with the group. She thought of her first question carefully, "Who do you work for? Angels are mean to work for the goddess of light, Palutena. However, I've never heard of a good angel having black wings."
"I'll tell you what I tell everyone else, I work for nobody but myself. I don't serve any selfish god or goddess." The dark angel glared at them for even suggesting that he was working for someone.
The blonde haired girl looked at Dark Pit's eyes for an indication that he was lying and was met with annoyance. "That's rather self-righteous" she thought to herself as she look at her partner. Magnus seem amused by the answer. She finally thought of a response, "Alright little one, we believe you"
"I'm not little." He hasn't actually seen other angels besides Pit and the centurions and they were about his size.
"Second question, what do you plan on doing when we let you go?"
Dark Pit didn't need to think about it, "I'm going to find my lookalike Pitstain and defeat Medusa. Can I go now?"
Gaol walked towards Magus as she spoke, "If you don't serve Palutena, why would you want to defeat Medusa if you are a neutral force"
Dark Pit nearly snarled thinking about the dark goddess, "I have a bone to pick with her. I'm not doing this to save any goddess Pitstain can do that by himself"
Gaol thought about what to do next. She looked at the dark angel and then his weapon. She signaled the other two to get closer so they could talk about what they would do with the angel. As the four talked, Dark Pit wondered what Pit was doing. Pit must have been safe because he wasn't in pain but it had been quiet for the entire day. Gaol turned to the dark angel which snapped him out of his thoughts.
"We've decided that we'll let you go"
"Finally"
"But we're coming with you to see your so called lookalike and then you get your bow back." The four got their belonging while the angel was silently raging in the inside. Looking after Pit was at his limit and now he has to be followed by four humans, nothing could get worse than this.
As he walked through the lifeless town all he could hear was the sound of foot step and the soft mutters from the four following behind him. He was bothered by something. Since he had woken up his mind had become less fogged. He remembered parts of the short life he lived before he emerged from the mirror. There was nothing too revealing besides the mission he was given but he did remember one ability he had.
He closed ignored the noise around him and he focus on the single point in his mind, the background slowly faded to black, buildings became rotten and aged. The single thing he thought about was the mirror that he had come from. Shards scattered across the ground, he stood back and looked closely at the structure. It hadn't changed much from the last time he had saw it but he was going to run out of time in a matter of a few days.
Magus watch as Dark Pit seemed to be day dreaming, completely zoned out. Sure he kept walking like he was before but the look in his eyes were dark and dull. To Magus the dark angel was just a child, a child that he couldn't trust but still a young boy. The angel seemed like a lost child. Magus had always wanted a child of his own and was hoping to have a child with his lover Gaol. The mercenary instinctively pat the dark angel's hair and scuffled it.
Dark Pit broke from his trace in a panic and turned to his attacker to see that it was just the human trying to mess with him. He stopped walking to glare at the mercenary and his eye twitched from annoyance he was clearly not pleased, if looks could kill, the young mercenary would have a hole through his head.
Gaol merely looked away as if giving the angel permission to attack Magnus for his stupidity. Magnus noticed that everyone was against him and he laughed nervously.
"Whatever, let's just keep moving." The dark angel's tone and face expression went against his body language as Magnus could see he was clenching his first from anger. The four could tell that the dark angel was one to react over dramatically and preferred to keep thing to himself. Gaol watched the black angel carry on walking as if nothing had happened, her gaze was one of sympathy but also pity.
After my exams I became a lazy pickle and I only felt like drawing. Hopefully I pick this story up again soon but I haven't been in the mood for writing. I kept forgetting to upload this chapter the next chapter should hopefully be out before the end of the year. From my memory this chapter was only slightly beta read so there might be a few mistakes. I don't know, lately I've been wanting to carry on the story but I've been entering a bunch of contests. I'm most active on devaintart. Maybe if I start a new story then I'll have more interest in writing this. See you guys later
