Title: "Tortured Memories; The Story of Light and Dark" by Jocelyn Jimenez Romero
Darkness wasn't always evil. They were forced to become it. Now, let's go back to the beginning and see how this story truly began.
Once upon a time, Darkness was once radiant and happy. They had lovely memories and everything was peaceful. One day, Darkness was hurt, betrayed by the one they thought they could trust. You see, Light had become greedy and wanted to control Darkness. But Darkness refused, so this caused a war between Light and Dark. Over time, civilizations started to split between them. Some choose Light, and others choose Dark. When Darkness started getting more people to listen, people were in disbelief and bewilderment. They didn't know whether to believe them or not.
So, Darkness started to get people to listen. After some time, people started to realize that maybe Light was wrong.
"We learn of the distinction between good and evil, a savior and a lost cause, a hero and a villain. But have you ever thought of the possibility of the difference just being who's telling the story?" Darkness would say.
"The only villain in my story is not me, but Light. They wanted to control me and tried to manipulate me into hurting those that I loved. Never again would I let that happen. Never again."
"Darkness would continue to tell people the truth, saying how sometimes the worst betrayer is the one closest to you. Memories flooded with hurt, pain, and sorrow. Their memories were the worst form of torture. They were consumed by Light way before time had begun and they weren't able to stop it from happening. The world was devastated by evil corruption. So when the time came, they pushed Light back when everyone realized how destructive Light truly was. They rallied and fought for centuries, and still to this day, it has not ended. " Said Universe
"It is your destiny to finish it. We cannot do it. It is beyond our powers. We are all haunted, by the tortured memories of this world."

Universe has called upon me to stop this from getting worse for everyone. They believe that I am the beacon of peace between Light and Dark. Times have been hard. Over the years, the war between Light and Dark has gotten to be way too much for us humans.
But why me? What do I have that others don't? Why was I chosen for this task? Universe has refused to answer my questions as they genuinely believe that I was the answer. How am I the answer?
I have been feeling different lately. Suffocating pains, chills, and aches, it doesn't stop. I don't understand why I'm feeling like this. I get them at the most random times, in class, while I’m eating, when I’m sleeping, literally everywhere, all at once. All I want is some peace, I want it to stop.
My mom hasn’t been much help either. Everything she tries ends up not working. She’s been giving me all types of different teas and food, but they don’t work. She rubs oils, creams, and even eggs around me but it still doesn’t work!
It’s been getting worse as the days pass. Constant pain all over my body, it’s like something trying to get out and my body is fighting it. But what could it be?
