Author's Commentary: Started out as a piece of spontaneous writing because I couldn't resist the idea of Kai as a university security guard. Ended being a pretty lenghty one-shot about the nature of fear, especially the fear of darkness. I was afraid of the dark as a kid, too, but I have a friend who still suffers from it, very severely. Lots of people think it's childish and silly, but it is actually a very real, and very serious phobia that people shouldn't undermine. Anyways, I hope you guys like this! Let me know what you think!

Chapter 1: Well, this was pretty good. I had a hard time getting into it, but you wrote Kai's character really well. ty joke from his side, but that's what makes a part of the story. Well done!
