DarkNeon-Omniverse

DarkNeon: ReDux It’s that time of year again. The time when the wind changes direction, the air gets chilly, the leaves go from monochrome to Multicolored and of course, the feeling of the bizarre and strange just strikes you at your core. It’s Halloween here in Noir Skies. To many of us, it’s literally the best time to get into monsters and terrors that hide in all corners of the creaky house made even more mysterious when the moon hangs in a way that brings the supernatural or paranormal out of us all. For someone like me, it already occurred weeks ago when I took up the mantle of Darkness and now wield the shadows and dark corners that Halloween celebrates. And even more recently, I no longer became alone in knowing this burden I carry when I decided to become the local, first ever REAL life superhero to help those troubled by the unexplainable and the familiar threats that prowled our neighborhoods. My Name is Derek Night. But to the continuously longer nights to come

DarkNeon ReDux Dawn Residence… Knocking on the door, I wait for a minute before it opens, being held out by the blonde haired mother of Kami Dawn, Lindsey. She smiled recognizing her visitor. “Oh Derek! How lovely to see you again~” she smiled with a charm. “Hello Mrs. Dawn. Kami in? I-I wanted to talk to her about something,” I said. “OH! Oh ho. Of course you do~ Right this way young man,” she motioned me inside. Stepping in, I kick off my sneakers and tuck them aside on the small rug. “It’s really not what you think, Ma’am. Really. Not even close,” I added. Kami’s mom has been having this notion rattling her head that Kami and I should be…well y’know. But we’re not. We like what we got and we’re not going to go past that with anything else. Oh but she’s being more sly about it. Just keeps thinking that ‘it’s cute you both keep clinging to the nice standard but so did me and my husband. Years of experience trust me.’ Well I got something more important than that. Just

DarkNeon ReDux Prologue The sounds of footsteps stamped on and on, rushing away from the threat of a shadowy figure that had been stalking her. She saw it all. Her friends getting taken out one by one by this simple lanky shape of a being that had been minding their business at the far edges of the highway that curbed at the gas station. She saw each one of them let out a blood curdling scream before their bodies collapsed in on themselves..changing. They were literally changing into inhuman shapes..mostly because they weren’t human after the fact. She had ran full sprint for minutes on end, hoping to reach the populous for help. Power in numbers and all that nonsense. That was until her path was suddenly blocked by..HER. She fell backwards in shock, landing on her phone in her back pocket, breaking IT and her ass. “No..No god please..No! No! You can’t do this! I didn’t do anything!!” she implored her. The dark grey sullen eyes stared back into her and spoke in a low

DarkNeon ReDux Sometimes, I don’t have all the answers. It’s a simple fact. In this line of work, everyone expects a superhero to know what to do, how to go about and always has the right of way. Maybe it was like that in the Golden and Silver age in Comics, but even now comic writers know that sometimes heroes can make mistakes. Become overwhelmed by doing what they do or living out their everyday lives. Sometimes if help comes along, you best take it…otherwise you might wind up in far bigger trouble. Who am I? My name is Derek Night. I’m sixteen, have a family, few friends, about to have a car to drive…and I was given an incredible chance to become a superhero by a celestial being from beyond our stars. With these powers to control and bend shadows and darkness in my hands, I became a superhero defending my hometown and the city that neighbors it. Everyone knows me as DarkNeon. And if you think that’s crazy, then you’re in for… Chapter 4: A Shocking Development! Help

DarkNeon ReDux Being a Superhero means you have to expect some of the most bizarre situations and beings one could barely grasp sanity of. Sometimes you got mad scientists with four extra arms attached to them. Sometimes you have a ten year old boy with access to various alien species all compacted in a strange device in the shape of a watch. But sometimes there’s..well the day that I’ve had. Who am I? My Name is Derek Night, and I have control over the element of darkness and became a hero to protect my home. I am DarkNeon..and I’ll tell you about the day that I had experienced.. Chapter 3: Girl Power! The Mysterious-Wait, He’s a She now?? It all started on a Friday night, another week after my official debut, Going out and about on another quick run through the small scale street buildings in Downtown Noir Skies. It had been some time after sundown and the daylight glow still hung low in the sky. My favorite time of the day now. Why? Because I can see it. I can see

DarkNeon ReDux The life of a superhero. How do they discuss this in the comics and movies? Well they kinda skim over that stuff, saving stories for the REALLY out there to happen to tell. But this is not another comic or movie. This is the world I live in now. This is the world I’m making BE like a comic book by taking up a very powerful mantle of an Omniversal warrior with the powers of darkness itself and using it to help others. But you’d think that once you declare yourself a superhero, life will suddenly spring supervillains and mad scientists on your doorstep. Welll…not really. BUT I can tell you that even on a slow week, life can rapidly change and you need to learn to adapt to the new quota. Who am I you ask? My Name is Derek Night. But to everyone else that faces danger and trouble and in need of help… Chapter 2: I Am DarkNeon! The Everyday life of a new Superhero Sunday Night “This is Twilight City News on Channel 6.
