It was Thursday night, All Hallows' Eve, October 31st, 2024.
Cameron is a virgin eighteen-year-old introverted semi-pro gamer who has some extroverted tendencies. He's 6'1 toned, studious looking, with short dirty-blonde hair, blue eyes, and glasses.
He found himself alone on another Halloween night, burning the midnight oil away on his favorite game, Deadlock.
After having some close ranked matches, he found himself burnt out on the grind.
"Hey guys, I'm signing off for the night. GGs"
Cameron leaned back in his chair.
"ugh, I'm so bored. There is nothing good out right now to play or to watch." He reached for his phone on his desk and loaded up Tiktok.
"Nothing like some brainrot to cure boredom." He sighed dejectedly. After a few minutes of mindlessly scrolling, a video caught his attention.
A melodious velvety voice seemed to be speaking directly to him. "Hey, you leaning back in your chair and bound to a night of joylessness. Would you like to play a game with me?"
A button appeared on his screen Yes, or No.
"Fuck it, why not."
He pressed the yes button. A swirl of smoke enveloped his screen. The phone spontaneously heated to the point it was too hot to handle. "OW! WTF?!" Cameron dropped his phone as it combusted, burning a deep red as the phone quickly turned to ash.
"What the actual fuck?!" "Did I download a virus or something!?"
Cameron tilted his head, perplexed at what had just happened before his eyes.
"Holy shit! My parents are going to kill me." He noticed his carpet had a nasty-looking burn ring on the floor. He took his yeti cup and splashed some water on the burn mark, trying his best to clean up the ashes. After scrubbing the carpet with a towel, he tossed it in the corner.
The burn ring caught his eye again. The burn mark made a perfect circle that had a runic-looking pattern. Oddly, it looked like it was still burning or glowing. The runes started to rearrange themselves and form a foreign text.
Cameron took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He proceeded to pinch himself "Shit shit! I'm not dreaming."
Adjusting his glasses back on his face, he stared at the text. αα’ααααΎΒ α¦αΒ αα¨α±α²Β α²αΎαα·αΊα. The runes slowly maneuvered until the text read clearly "Summon the darkest night." Cameron read the words aloud. The text suddenly vanished, and a new word appeared. α’αα²αααα. Again the text slowly formed a visible word. Vexsis.
"What does Vexsis mean?"
Abruptly, a dark purple smoke erupted from the circle on the floor. The smoke enshrouded all traces of light, encasing his room in a pitch-black veil.
Panicked, Cameron frantically extended his arms in desperation to locate anything familiar. Amid his searching, Cameron heard a mocking laugh echo throughout his room. The laugh seemed to come from a female.
"Who's there!? Show yourself!" He shouted into the darkness.
Cameron's heart raced as his breathing grew frantic. He could feel something watching him in the darkness and shuddered in response.
A pleasant aroma drifted into his nose, and a wave of calm washed over him. The fragrance was blissfully sweet, a mixture of woman's perfume and warm honey.
Cameron's fear melted away. His body felt weightless. He closed his eyes and leaned backward, his head landing on something warm and soft, the fragrance now stronger than ever.
Cameron felt a soft hand caress playfully through his hair. Surprised, Cameron's eyes darted open. His eyes were met by another pair of doe eyes. They were a creamy bright color green. His head was nestled on their lap with them looking down at him.
"Hello, my love." the voice spoke out, an innocent smile flashing across her lips. It was the same melodious velvety voice he had heard in the video.
Cameron jerked his head away and spun around, hastily backward pulling away.
Cameron surveyed his surroundings. He was in a large room, with candles making a circle around them. He looked down his hand clenching what felt like silky sheets. He was on a giant bed with silky black sheets and pillows.
His eyes moved to focus on the figure, his eyes adjusting to the dim lighting. "Wh...who are you? What is this place? What did you do to my room?" Cameron managed to say, trying not to sound scared shitless.
Their form gradually took shape. She had long silky black hair, with black obsidian medium-sized imperial-styled horns. Her skin tone was crimson-red with a glass skin complexion. Flawless and radiant. She had midnight black wings and a tail that seemed to have a mind of its own.
