Yeah! I'm back with the Squeal to my Fic, 'A Demon's Angel'! As we know, I do not own Pokemon!
Struggles Arc—A message from Hell.
Sunlight. He hated, abhorred, and loathed it. He'd cursed and damned it to Hell and back many a time. It caused him pain and misery.
And he was craving it.
Letting out a cry, he hit his fist the cold, gray, stonewall. The gravelly surface scarping his skin. His dark scarlet blood ran down his wrist before falling to the grimy ground. The chains on the shackles that adorn his wrists rattle and clanking together.
Then an electric, shooting pain rushed up his arm. Green eyes wide, he pulled his arm to his chest with a hiss.
Damn it all! He pulled his bleed wrist slowly to his mouth, trying to stop the blood flow and getting the grit from the wound. He winced, feeling tears strike his leg. I mustn't cry. I can't let them see they're starting to break my spirit. The Demon looked up at the wall. Blood, some his, some not streaked down it. Though his imprisoners hadn't seen it yet, he let his eyes trail to one of the corners. Scraped in small letters was the only thing that kept his desire to live thriving.
The Demon shut his eyes once more, picturing the name who the letters spell out.
May
She was an airhead. A complete and total airhead! May Maple hit herself in the head with the heel of her palm.
How could she have forgotten?
How could that fact slip her mind at all? How could something she's known since she was small be forgotten like that?
Better question, how could she promise her heart to one man and then fall in love with another? May wanted to hit her head on the wall of her room.
She slumped to the ground, wings drooping. "I should even be say this stuff. I knew I was engaged to Brendan Birch, and I go and fall in love with Drew Hayden!" An image of the Demon flashed in her mind. It had been a year and half since May had last seen the Demon. She frowned, feeling dumb.
May had be engaged to Brendan since she was little. They'd been friends for years. Their parents pushed them together in the hope that they might one day fall in love. That didn't happen.
Well, it didn't happen for May anyway.
Brendan on the other hand, May wasn't so sure. She'd heard from Dawn that Brendan was distraught about her disappearance, wishing, even, to go to Hell himself to save her. May really hoped that was just the fact they were childhood friends that he wanted to put himself in such danger like that.
It was for the best, though. It's not like May and Drew could ever be together. He was a Demon from Hell. One of the most powerful Demons at that. And she was a newbie Angel.
A sigh escaped her lips. There was nothing she could do about it. Drew would forget about her and find some evil Demoness to stay at his side, for him to hold and say endearing things to.
Stop thinking those things. My inner voice chided. You never know; maybe he misses you.
"Yeah, right. I'm sure he'd forgotten all about me." May sighed. "Oh well, I've got to get Dawn."
Dawn stood in front of the entrance to Earth, foot tapping, arms crossed, waiting for May.
"Sorry I'm late," May said.
"It's okay," Dawn smiled, then looked behind May. "Hey! It's Brendan!" May's heart jolted to her throat as she turned. Brendan was a handsome young angel with white wings and hair, with a sword on his side. May gulped as he skidded to a stop in front of her.
"May…" He huffed. "I wanted to ask…if I could some with you to…Earth…please."
May blinked then nodded, "Um, sure. I mean, if it is okay with Dawn." Dawn giggled and nodded.
The trip to Earth was fast and normal. Finding the human who May and Dawn were to help was normal. Helping the human was normal. What happened next was, on the other hand, not normal in the least.
The little town the three were in was the same as any other human town May had seen. Streets with cars and house with people. A few tree popped up out of the concrete ground.
"Aw! Look, May!" Dawn grabbed her arm. "A baby!" May's eyes shone as they looked into the stroller at the innocent little babe as its unknowing mother chattered away to another woman. The baby's big blue eyes stared at them before giggling.
Brendan peered over their shoulders. He smiled, and May moved out of the way for him. She smiled as her two friends cooed over the baby. Then a low sound came from an alley. The Angel turned and her eyes widen.
In the alley stood a lean, long legged black dog, a large set of curved horns donned its head, its muzzle was a dark black-red, its fur had a skull like outline in the same color as its muzzle on its shoulders, and a long thin, whip-like tail with a triangle on the end. Tyra, May realized. Though he had grown, it was most defiantly him. A small collar made from a ribbon and a crude heart shaped piece of clay confirmed this.
"T-Tyra?" May whispered, stepping closer to the Hellhound. Tyra blink his eyes before gesture with his muzzle toward the alleyway, stepping back deeper into it then toward May.
"Do you want me to follow you?" May whispered. Tyra looked at the alley again then at May. The worried look on the hound's face dropped a ball of ice into May's stomach. "What…what is it? Tyra?" The Hellhound opened his mouth and a whimper of gargled words came out.
"Help…Master…Hell…Now," He said. Before the Hellhound could keep speaking, Brendan's blade slashed towards him. I gasped as Tyra jumped back with shocked look.
"Get away from her, you Hell Spawn," Brendan growled. Dawn came up form beside me.
Tyra cocked his head and stepped back, sending me an imploring look before darting off down the alleyway. Before I could think, I grabbed Brendan's arm and pushed him. "Why did you do that?"
"May, it was going to—"
"He wasn't doing a thing, Brendan!" May clenched my fist to keep from screaming. Brendan and Dawn exchanged sympatric looks. May knew just what they were thinking.
Being in Hell caused her to care for beings that were her natural enemies.
"May…" Dawn placed a hand on her shoulder. "You don't know that. I bet that Hellhound was just waiting for you to turn your back."
May sighed. No one knew that she had been happy, even if just for a moment, while in Hell. And they'd think her crazy if she dare even say that she wished to return, even if for an hour, to the mansion in the Hell forest.
"Let's just…go," She turned with a frown.
Timble leaned on the side of the gate, his sides feeling like a knife was being repeatedly drag across it. Unlike Laramie, Yippy, and Moe, his connection to the Master was strong enough to feel the physical pain the Master was under. Rubbing his temples, the zombie slumped to the ground.
Were the Master went and who took him was a mystery. One morning he woke up, and the Master was just gone.
"Arf!" Timble's eyes darted up to see the Hellhound run towards him, tail held high. This gave the zombie some hope. Timble had sent Tyra to find May in the human world, knowing sooner or later he'd catch her scent.
The Hellhound darted over and nuzzled his side. Timble jolted back from his touch with a wince. "It's okay, boy." The zombie petted the Hellhound between the horns. "Did you find her?" The hound nodded. "Is she coming?"
His shoulders hunched, and his eyes were down cast. Timble felt his hope slip away as quickly as it had come. "She's not coming?"
The Hellhound's gargled voice twisted around the words, "Maybe…She…looked…wanted to…but…other Angel attack Tyra…before follow…My Lady could…" Timble sent him a sad smile.
"So maybe then. That's better than—UGH!" Timble crumbled over, holding his side. Pain shooting through him. Slowly and laboriously, he brought his hand to his face. Blood. Whatever those who took him were doing to the Master, they were pushing him to the brink of death and pulling him back.
Ugh! I wanted to first chappie to be longer! Wah! T.T Oh well, I hoped you all like it. I tried to fit enough detail in that it makes up for the shortness.
