One and The Same... by ContainmentBreach
"Why don't you smile, human..?"
'Go away, you miserable excuse for a soul... You, nor no one else has a place in my life..."
"Why?"
'Because I was not meant to exist, I am nothing...'
"Yet here we are... Confronting our shadows..."
'There is no shadow were there is nothing for it to originate from... Moron...'
"Then why do we have the ability to communicate? Why, if not to share our thoughts, are we here..?"

'We are not here, as I do not exist...' I explained further...
"Then why do you persist?" He asked after a short silence, "Why do you not truly end your existance..?"
'There is another, one more pure of heart, who must direct me...' I paused, sobbing for the pain in my heart, but no more tears fell... 'The one person I search for... I have not found them yet...' I paused again... Cracking my knuckles as I looked at the creature sitting with me in the abyss... 'I need one final heart to show me my own path...'

"Why? Do you have a genuine belief that this human will show you whether you live or die?" He asked, a spark of curiosity displayed across his face...
'...' I licked my lips before starting again... 'Maybe... Although, I do not have anything else to believe, I will carry this burden until they show me my path...' I hesitated, 'Or until I lay upon my deathbed...'
Now, the other being, one of pure darkness, pulled himself closer. Dispursing the shadowy veil around him, starting with his feet... "Then allow me to join you... For I have lost my path as you have, Daniel..." The veil lifting from what seemed to be black denim jeans... "And I will follow you down your chosen path."
My mind spun as the veil lifted further, revealing his cleanly pressed black dress shirt...
'And if you become a hinderance along my path?' I asked finally...
"Then toss me aside, much like I did to my humanity long ago..." He said, not faltering even once...
I held my hand out to this shadow of a man... He took hold with the same hand, and we both pulled... I closed my eyes and pulled with all my strength...
There was a burst of force, the shadow-human fell upon me... He sat up on my stomach, though not causing any pain...
I opened my eyes... His face... No... my own face... No, not just my face... But my entire body, copied to this new personality...
"Now..." He started, reaching his hand down and stepping over me; "Let's learn find out what Fate has in store!" Without a second thought, I took his hand.
...
And I awoke... I woke up... I paniced, attempting to lift myself from the floor...
When I succeded, I lifted myself from my sleep-state... I looked over to the clock... Midnight... An impossibility... I fell asleep three minutes prior... I looked around my room, the knife I found the night before was still stabbed into my bed...
I turned, and as I saw myself in the mirror... I stopped...
'Allow me to join your chosen path...' I said aloud, barely making a sound...

I saw two things that night...
My future... resting on the bed like a new born kitten...
...And my past. As I looked in that mirror, there was only one thing that showed me that conversation was real, one piece of misplaced evidence...

If anyone can guess what that 2nd part is... I'll tell you the rest of my story...
Briana... You were that final heart...
Thank you...

Thank you, Briana! ^^ I think I'll put this on dA… I think I'll start using Shade again… Though you have always drawn him better… ^^; Do you know what the last thing I saw that night was?
