Barnado-
It had been just like any other night in Duskwood.The night watch were on patrol and the sounds of abominations were coming from all directions.Bernado was guarding Raven Hill,which was his daily shift,once again.He talked with Jitters for a short while,but Jitters' boring stories soon put Bernado right to sleep.
His sleep was a long dark one.He remembered of how he lost his parents,how he found his long lost brother that was trying to kill him,how he was on the run from a warlock after his soul and how he had become involved in a plot on someone's life.In the midst of his nightmare,his sleep was disturbed,Bernado had awoken somewhere else.He was covered in darkness even though he was awake.He could here footsteps and wheels rolling across the ground.After a short while,he heard a voice..
"Sssssso,what do we do with the bodiessss captain?"
Then another voice was heard...
"We'll bury them,like all the other onessss you fool!"
Bernado had begun to get a bit woried about what they were talking about..
"Bodies,what do they mean by...."
Bernado was intterupted before he could finish his thought.He had moved his leg and could feel something crawling up it.When it came close enough to his face,he realised what it was,A MAGGOT!
"Oh dear god.....I shouldn't worry,somebody will save me,yeah..somebody will come to save me!" he repeated over and over in his head.But nobody ever did save him sadly..
The footsteps and wheels came to an abrupt stop,and Bernado banged his head off something wooden,he assumed he was probably in some sort of cart.Then,one of the voices from before spoke once more...
"Well,sssserve your duty you sssswine,bury the bodiessss..."
The cover of darkness dissapeared and Bernado could see light for a minute,but it was blocked shortly after by what seemed to be the figure of an undead.Bernado began to feel the "Bodies" being taken out and then thrown in to a pit. As soon as he had enough room to move,Bernado tried to raise himself up and escape. But as soon as he sat up,he was hit smack in the face with a blunt object...
Bernado woke up after what seemed like a year's rest.He was completely covered with darkness again.There was no oxygen where he was,but...he seemed to simply stay alive anyway. He tried digging his way out through the masses of bodies,but while doing this,he was scratched by some sort of sharp object,such as a blade. The skin just seemed to tear off..
"What'sssss going on...I feel completely different....it'ssss like I'm..."
Bernado stopped himself from finishing his sentence.He finished digging out his grave. He pulled himself out carefully and looked at the area he was in. In the distance,he spotted a small town,it seemed to be occupied by the undead that had buried him.Before he could begin to move,he was approached by one of them.
"You there,it'sss a good thing you got up,we were about to burn you with the rest of them. I think you should sssspeak with the Shadow Priest,he needssss all the new onesss he can find..."
It was what that forsaken had said which confirmed Bernado's fear. He was no longer a human.He was one of the living dead.....
