I think it's finally time I did this story. It'll be a bit, well, dark at times, but please bare with me. Anyway, here it is.

" Blitz! Come here! It's an emergency! "

The young dragon flew as quickly as his tiny wings would carry him, trying to find where Aries was calling him from. In this dark world, it was always hard to find people. Especially Aries, who himself looked quite dark.

Blitz turned a corner, finally finding Aries. However, the sight before him was like nothing he'd ever seen before. Aries was dragging Septimus by the underarms, and said fire demon was flailing violently against the other's grasp, and his hair was flaming. However his hair wasn't flaming his original orange color. It was dark blue with hell fire. And worse, his long, orange devils tail was out. Something of which Septimus hated to have out because it always got caught in the doors.

But it got worse when he opened his eyes. Instead of blood red slits, there were sapphire blue, like hell fire.

" Grrrr! "

Septimus growled, looking like he was about ready to set his whole body in fire.

" Let me go you pathetic waste of space! "

Blitz gasped at this, not surprised in the slightest to find Aries look a little hurt. Never in his time living with Septimus had he ever heard him talk to Aries like that. The demon jerked harshly, flapping his wings and lifting himself off the ground a bit. Luckily Aries somehow managed to keep him grounded.

" Gah- help me! "

Blitz jumped and immediately sprung into action. He wrapped his tail around the thrashing demon's legs, helping drag the man wherever Aries was taking him.

" Wh-what's going on with him?! "

The drake had to ask, pulling violently against Septimus.

" It's not his fault! "

Aries yelped, dodging a claw swipe.

" He can't help it! H-he's-! "

Septimus suddenly threw a fiery punch straight onto Aries' jaw line, sending him painfully to the ground. In the shock of the moment, Blitz let go of Septimus, the demon immediately seizing the moment. Septimus floated up and was about to charge down at the drake, when a blushis glow surrounded him, preventing him from moving.

Turning, Blitz found Aries holding Septimus back with his psychic energy. Yet he was shaking violently, one hand touching his sapphire, the other struggling to stay open. Septimus merely smirked at this, spreading his wings apart and breaking the psychic hold Aries had on him.

Said psychic cried out, clutching both sides of his head, not being able dodge another punch from the fire demon. However, THIS one managed to knock him out. But Septimus didn't stop there, oh no. He started kicking at his ribs, his head, and even stomped down on his leg. And as he was doing this, his appearance changed a bit. His hair turned black, getting messier and the streaks turned grey.

Blitz yelped, covering his mouth in horror, his wings flapping violently. He couldn't believe what he was seeing! Septimus was hurting the only demon he considered a friend! What was WRONG with him?!

The demon turned to Blitz, grinning widely. Somehow, his fangs looked even sharper than normal. Blitz whimpered, cowering a bit.

" S-Septimus... please... don't... "

Strangely, Septimus merely smirked and glared at him.

" Septimus? "

He chuckled, but his voice sounded different. Like it belong to an entirely different demon entirely.

" Who's Septimus? My name is Pyro. And you're gonna die tonight squirt. "

Septimus- or Pyro- knelt down in front of the dragon and simply grabbed his neck, biting onto his head. Blitz screamed, instinctively scratching the demon, causing him to let the drake go. Blitz immediately seized the opportunity to run away.

Pyro smirked and wagged his tail in glee before flying up and out of the dark world of Nerezza. He had people to kill after all.

" Casper, what's wrong? "

Fatch asked softly, speed walking to keep up with the ghost. The two were outside of the Deedstown forest, and Fatch was trying to figure out what the rush was for Casper. They had been asked to do something, but Fatch hadn't been there for it.

" ... Casper! "

Casper jumped, almost not catching the vampires question.

" O-oh! Sorry! Um, w-we're finding the werewolfs! They get loose every full moon, and we have to find them! "

" Well, this might not be a great idea... "

Casper slowly stopped walking, turning to Fatch in confusion.

" What do you mean? "

" Well, Wolfie won't be so bad. I mean, he only scares humans. But Jake and Loreli were BORN werewolfs, and add to that they're descendants of the alpha werewolf. Not to mention they're stronger too. We may have a harder time stopping them then we would Wolfie. "

He was right. Jake and Loreli were a lot stronger than Wolfie, and probably much more violent too. That's probably why the headmasters asked Fatch to come with him. Made sense really. Fatch would probably be the only one who could stop them if things got bad.

Suddenly Fatch's entire started shuddering, flashing that peculiar red shade. Casper hadn't seen this red shade shuddering in AGES. And to make things more frightening, it was a thousand times worse than it had ever been.

" Uh... oh... "

Fatch whimpered, his eyes narrowing sadly, but the red refusing to leave.

" Casper get down! "

Immediately Casper knelt down, feeling wind blow over his head, signaling something tried to tackle him. Looking up, he saw what appeared to be Septimus. However, his hair was black and grey, and his tail was a long devil like tail. He looked absolutely terrifying.

Fatch threw a instinctive punch at the demon's gut, sending him into a tree. Thinking quickly he grabbed Casper's arm and took off running. He could tell how dangerous that thing was. He knew better than to try to fight it right now. Besides, he had to keep Casper safe.

Sorry it got lame towards the end. Hope the next chapter turns out better. ^_^"
