Life isn't fair. It might seen to be fair for some, but for Keith, life has been nothing but a pain and a struggle. Growing up without his mother did shape his personality, but he wasn't completely alone. He had his older brother, Shiro, and his father. But life is not fair. At fourteen, Keith lost both his father and his vision. After going blind, things seemed to get worse, and on some days, he feels utterly alone.
Keith, however, isn't the only one who is seen as and regarded as 'different' and 'abnormal'.
Just fifteen minutes from his small apartment lives a boy his age who has faced many of the same obstacles Keith has faced as a result of his visual impairment. His name, is Lance, and though he seems to fit in and go through life with ease, most of it is just an act to hide his own worries and pain.

'Sounds of Darkness' is a modern styled Klance AU and is set around present day (2019). In this universe, there is no Altea or intergalactic war. In simple terms, it's a high school AU, but with a twist. No jocks and nerds, no valley girls and pretty girls, just a regular high school.
This story does encompass quite a few examples of 'mature content', most notably, Keith's colorful language. There is also mentions of depression, anxiety, and self harm, very real things that many teenagers know all too well.All Rights Reserved
