I was born into a world where demons walked the streets. When I was young two very powerful ones killed my mother and father. If it weren't for Jake and his sister Jane I would have been next. Today is the first time I join them and their kids, John and Jade, in a demon hunt. We're not the only demon hunters in our city. There's another group that I read about in the paper, but I've never seen them out in the city.
"Anna! Anna! Wake up Anna!" I slowly begin to open my eyes. Jade's leaning over me shaking me and yelling in my ear.
"Okay. Okay, I'm up."
"Breakfast is ready. You better eat up , we've got our first demon hunt tonight!" I don't understand what she's so excited about. This job is dangerous and lives are easily lost.
"Jade!," I hear John's voice call out, he peaked his head in through he cracked door," Oh good your up." The three of us head down the hall. Our apartment was small and only two stories. The second floor was were we all slept. Jade and I share a room and John has is own. Jane and Jake have separate bedrooms to. On the first floor was the kitchen and the living room.
"Mornin' Kids." Jake greets us from over the newspaper. Jane's in the kitchen making pancakes and a fruit salad.
"Jade. Can you come finish cutting up the strawberries?"
"Yes ma'am."
"Anna I need you and John to run upstairs and start putting together the packs for tonight." Jake had taught us how to put together the survival packs for when they go out. It's equipped with a first aid kit, flashlights, bullets, etc.
When the time finally came for us to head out. The smile that once lit up Jade's face was gone.
"Hey. You okay?" she looked over at me.
"To be honest, no. I'm terrified. What if I d-d-"
"Jake will be with us the entire time. I'll be fine." We ha decided to split into teams to cover more ground. Jade and I would go with Jake and John would go with Jane. We would be fine. Right? Jake wouldn't let us die out there. No. we would be fine.
