Hello to everyone! So, this story has supernatural themes and not-so-great language... Blood probably at some point too... Just a warning!
I don't own Ouran or Demons (Six part British TV show on ABC3) Don't own ABC3 either!

Chapter 1
There it was again. That irritating little picture in the corner of my vision.
I kept seeing it all the time.
Stupid faulty sight.
I walked down, out of my apartment and into the corridor.
It was probably about 4 in the afternoon.
I went down the elevator, out of the complex, and into the street.
Cars were busy hurtling down the road.
I thought there was a sixty kilometers per hour restriction...
I went down to the corner, where the park was.
It was nice there. I liked it. The playground especially. You'd probably think it was stupid for a twenty-one-year-old to like going to childrens' playgrounds... Oh, well.
A black car pulled up next to me. Yes, I was a man, but I still had my doubts. Thoughts raced through my mind.
Rapist! Pervert! Gah!
The window rolled down.
A man with black hair and glasses looked out, "You're Kaoru Hitachiin, right?"
I hesitantly nodded.
The man smirked, "Don't worry. I'm not going to do anything to you. I just need to talk to you. I'm Kyoya Ootori." He got out of his car.
I watched.
"Anywhere you'd prefer to go?"
"Um... The playground?"
A silent laugh shook this 'Kyoya's body, "Okay. Sure."
We walked to the playground which was, unsurprisingly, empty. School.
We sat down on one of the benches.
Kyoya adjusted his glasses, "Yes. As I was saying, I am Kyoya. I knew your brother. Very brave boy."
I gasped. Pain struck my heart. Hikaru had died four years ago, apparently in 'work' or something.
"You knew Hikaru?"
Kyoya nodded, "He worked with me."
"So... That's why he was out all the time?"
"Yes."
"What did you do?"
Kyoya smiled slightly, "We hunted demons."
I stopped, "Huh? Quite joking with me!"
"I'm not." He shook his head, "Swear on my and your brother's life."
"You can't swear on his life. He's dead." I said, voice wobbling slightly at the last word.
Kyoya put a hand on my shoulder, "I'm sorry. I swear on my and your lives, then."
I looked up at him, "What proof do you have?"
"Come with me."
\._./
I kept a firm grip on the door handle of the car the entire ride, just in case.
We arrived at a old building, crumbling and dark.
I sank into my seat, "You're not a rapist, are you?" I asked.
Kyoya chuckled, "No. Calm down." He got out of the car, slamming the door shut. I got out my side.
He led me into the building.
A surprisingly clean and polished desk sat in one shadowed corner.
Kyoya took a folder out of a drawer. It was filled with pictures.
I spread them out and looked over them.
There were probably around twenty three there. Hikaru with some kind of gun, Hikaru and Kyoya, Kyoya and an unnamed blonde boy. Many more of my dear brother.
I felt tears burning the backs of my eyes, but kept them down.
"Okay, fine." I took a breath, "I believe you. But what do you want?"
Kyoya looked at me seriously, "You are the last Hitachiin. We need you for what we needed Hikaru."
"What, really?"
"Yeah. After he... uh... y'know... We've been somewhat losing to the demons. We need you to help us defeat them."
I frowned, "Fine... What do I have to do?"
"Firstly, you need to come out with me tonight for some time."
"Uh, I can't. I have plans."
"You have to. Cancel whatever plans." Kyoya said, looking at me seriously. Finally I crumbled, "Fine."
\._./
"Hey Haruhi?"
"
Hey Kaoru. What's up?"
I winced at her voice over the phone, "Um, well you know the party we were meant to go to tonight?"
"Yeah..."
"I... Have to cancel."
"Why?"
"I just do. I'm sorry. I'll talk to you later." I mumbled, "Hang on! Do you still need your scrapbook?
"Hm? Yeah."
"I can't give it to you..."
"I'll come over to yours. See you soon."
"Bye."
Click.

I sat on my bed. There it was again. That little image.
But that's when I felt something brush my leg. I yelped and leapt up.
A strange monkey-like creature snarled and shot into the loungeroom.
I walked out cautiously. On the way I picked up a broom and held it protectively in front of me.
The creature flew past my face. I threw the broom out at exactly the right time, causing the creature to whack directly into the metal. It screeched and bounded away.
I shook out a dustbin that sat in the corner of the room and dove at it.
The rim of the bin caught it's tail.
I shoved it into the bin and sat on top of the now-upturned dustbin.
I heard the doorbell right.
Fahk.
Looking around frantically, I saw a presumably heavy box full of china.
I heaved it off the table and put it onto the bin.
"Stay in there." I breathed before going to the door, "Hey Haruhi."
"Hi Kaoru."
"I've got something to show you." I said, then walked to the loungeroom, Haruhi following right behind me.
I looked down at the dustbin. It had been one made out of dark grey plastic. A hole was burned into the side of it.
"What the Hell?!"
"What?" Haruhi asked, sitting down on one of the kitchen stools.
I blinked, "There... Was a thing... Like a monkey, but with sharp teeth and huge eyes! And it was running around and attacking me and..."
Haruhi's face made me trail off, she looked very disbelieving.
"You don't believe me?"
"I think you need more sleep, Kao."
"Urg!" I growled. Taking a deep breath, I looked back at Haruhi, "Do you want something to drink?"
"Yes please."

Kyoya and I sat in the audience of a big piano concert.
A blonde man sat up on the stage, playing beautifully.
He hit the last note, and everyone applauded.
I was smiling.
We stood, packed in the crowd.
"Come with me." Kyoya said, taking his wrist and tugging him through the huge amount of people.
"Who was that guy?" I asked quietly.
"Tamaki Suoh. He's really a very famous pianist."
"Oh." We finally made it through the mob and to a table.
Tamaki was sitting there, seeming to be looking at nothing.
"Hey Tamaki." Kyoya said, smiling.
"Kyoya!" Tamaki stood up and gave him a hug.
Kyoya nodded, "This is Kaoru." He shoved me forward slightly, I smiled, "Nice to meet you." He shook my hand, then took it in both of his.
*Tamaki POV*
The boy I could sense seemed to have a deep history.
I took his hands.
FWASH!
Hikaru and Kaoru together.
Dogs.
A snarl.
A brown-haired girl shrieking.
A metal pole
I shook my head, let go of his hands, pulled a pocket watch out of my shirt pocket and put the chain around his neck, "Stay safe Kaoru."
*Kaoru POV*
The pocket watch hung from my neck, "Thank you." I said quietly.
Kyoya took my wrist again, "It was nice seeing you Tamaki. We'll see you soon." And he led me away again.
We stood just outside the theater.
"I never would have guessed... He's blind." I said.
Kyoya nodded, "He has other ways of sensing things though."
"Oh, okay." I scuffed my shoes on the concrete.
Kyoya looked me directly in the eye, "You need to go stay at home, got it?"
I sighed, "Fine."
\._./
The second Kyoya's car pulled away from the footpath, I sprinted down the street to the venue the party was at.
After shoving the door open, I could see Haruhi sitting by herself on a couch. She looked up, then smiled.
She hugged me, "You came!"
"That I did. How are you?"
"Good."
"Kaoru?" Renge walked over to me, "Where have you been hiding?"
"He just got here." Haruhi said.
Renge smiled, "Oh, then you need to catch up." She grabbed my wrist and pulled me away.
Sorry! I mouthed to Haruhi, who scrunched her mouth sideways, glaring at Renge's back slightly.
\._./
The cold air bit at my exposed face.
Haruhi and I stood outside the party. It was getting kinda... Over the top?
"Betcha would've prefered to stay with Renge, huh?" She asked.
I shook my head, "Nuh-uh. I swear she's clinically insane."
Haruhi rolled her eyes, "Whatever. Goodnight Kaoru." She turned and started her walk home. I pursed my lips. Something felt strange. I quietly followed after her.
\._./
*Haruhi POV*
I walked the normal way home.
A group of three people were fighting and punching each other.
As they got closer, I yelped and accidentally backed up into a warehouse.
The group were suddenly behind me.
I span around, fear written on my face.
These people had the faces of dogs.
One dove at me.
I screeched then jumped back, landing in someone's arms.
I screamed more.
"Haruhi!" Kaoru hissed.
*Kaoru POV*
I held my friend in my arms, "It's fine. It's me!"
She turned around, then punched me lightly, "Idiot." Then she was scared again, "There were these weird people!"
"What do you mean, weird?"
"They had dog faces!"
I frowned, "Are you sure you're not just tired..."
"NO! They were real!"
A deep laughter from behind me had us both reeling around.
A sharp-toothed, grubby looking man with a flat nose and stringy hair staggered over.
I instantly pushed Haruhi into a gap between some crates, then turned to the man.
He started attacking me.
I dodged and jumped and kicked.
Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Haruhi creeping for the door.
The monkey-creature flew out of the man's coat, going for her.
It latched onto her ankle. She shrieked and started trying to shake it off.
I kicked the man somewhere you really... really wouldn't want to be kicked. He fell over backwards.
I ran for Haruhi and whacked the monkey-thing across the room, smashing it into a wall.
"Let's go." I whispered in her ear and we bolted.
