Evra bolted out of the fire exit, box still in her arms. She being was quick, he liqufied behind her and appeared in front of her. He opened his mis-shapen mouth and spoke, his voice like stones clicking together. "Give me the box, it will be safe with me." Evra hid the box behind her back. "Never!" The creature smiled. "But your father abandoned you, did he not?" Evra felt her face pale as the memories flew back.

One Year Ago
Evra was seated on a white plastic chair, glanced down at her father, lying in the hospital bed. He had a few burns on his arms and chest.
"You should be more careful." Evra whispered.
"It's not my fualt-"
"I know, I know." Evra closed her eyes.
"The electric was bust, so I had to fix it."
"I know." Evra repeted.
"Evra. Evra, look at me."
She opned her eyes and looked at her father, his eyes exaclty like hers.
"There's something under my bed. Get it for me please."
Evra ducked down and pulled out a small brown wooden box.
"What's in it?" She reached for the clasp.
"
Don'topen it!" He winced in pain "You know I told that there is magic in the world? Well this box has a spell in it. If opened by the wrong hands, destruction and pain will be released."
Evra's eyes widened "Just like Pandora's box?"
"Exactly like Pandora's box."
Distantly a bell ringed. Visiting time was over. Evra leaned foward and kissed her father's forehead.
"I'll be back first thing in the morning." She left the room, box under her arm, shut the door with a click and smiled through the window
The next morning Evra bounded into her father's room, to find that the bed was empty and a nurse was stripping the bed. She glanced up and Evra. "I'm sorry."

"He
did not abandon me! He died from electric shock. (Evra has been afraid of electricty and lightning ever since.
The creature smiled evily. "What would you do, if I told you the electic was sabotaged. That's when Evra fell in. "Your lying!" She put the box on a ledge and with that she yelled a battle cry and carged at the creature full pelt and started punching him, but to no effect. As her anger grew, she unleashed her ice powers. The creature froze into a block of ice, with one final blow, the ice splintered and melted. Evra grabbed her box and ran for saftey, tears in her eyes.
-Yay! Like it HJ? You didn't know about powers, so I said ice is that OK?

From now on the darkness creatures are being called Black Needles.-
