Chapter 1: Interecting with the inner demon

It was a nice summer afternoon, Steve was coming from an aftrenoon lunch with his long time friend, Emilie de Rochefort, otherwise known as Lili. He had taken her to everyone favorite Chinese resturant "Marshall China." When they were finished with lunch, they decided to spend some alone time at the park. The two young Europeans took a blanket from Steve's car and sat under a tree and shared a sunday after noon tea.

"Steve isnt this a pleasent way to spend a Sunday afternoon?" Lili takes a sip of her tea."Marshall Law's place is quite busier and alot noisy as always on the weekend." Lili said.

Steve takes a sip of his tea and places it down for awhile."Yes it sure is, so i thought some time in the p could ease the tension." Steve takes another sip of his tea and pour Lili some more tea.

"Well all this didnt really matter to me, just as long i was spending this time with you." Lili's last statement made Steve blush really hard.

"Im glad you are enjoying yourself, its just so peaceful here on Sundays, i think i might just do this every sunday after lunch." Steve said while Lili nods her head in agreement.

Moment later Steve and Lili, spots friend Julia chang walking her dog. Two approaches Julia and her dog Scruffy, she was very suprised to see the two of them at the park on a Sunday. Lili invites her to have some tea with them, Julia accepts and follows them with her dog besides her. Steve passes her a cup of tea of own.

"So guys what brings you out here on a day like this?" Julia asks while she sips on her tea.

"We came from eating at Marshall China." Steve gets interupted by Julia.

"Let me guess, the place was extremely busy and crazy." Julia smiles and laugh a little.

"If Bod, Marduck and King werent his favorite customers, Sunday lunch would have been more enjoyable. Lili said, Julia and Steve nods their in agreement.

Lili and Steve pets Scruffy, Scruffy wags his tail. He was a friendly dog, any friend of Julia was a friend of his. Scruffy always enjoy being around people ,other than his owner.

"Julia i meant to ask you, what kind of dog Scruffy is?" Lili asked as she continue to pet Scruffy.

"Well he is a golden retriever, had him for the last eleven months to year now." Julia replies.

An hour later

It was starting to get really late. Julia calls Scruffy and heads on home. Steve packs his blanket and packs it in the back of his car. Steve drives Lili home, when they arrive, her butler Sebastian waiting inside for her. Steve says bye to Lili, drives back to his place.

"Well Ms. Lili was how your afternoon with Mr. Fox?" Sebastian aked.

"It was a time worth spending, even though we ran to our friend Julia and her dog Scruffy, it was still pretty good." Lili responded.

"Ok thats good, would you like some tea?" Sebastian asked as brings out the tea set.

"No thanks, i already enough tea for the day?" Lili replied.

"Ok Ms, dinner would be ready real shortly." Sebastian responded.

Meanwhile, at the Williams residence, Steve walks in his house and sees his mother making dinner. His aunt takes the ingredients needed for their meal. Steve walks in the kitchen and greet his mother and aunt.

"Hey Stevie how was your time with that Lili girl?" His mother Nina asked.

"Well it was pretty good, we even ran into our friend Julia Chang and her dog Scruffy." Steve responded.

"Speaking of Chang, her mother Michelle was here just about an hour ago." Anna said.

"Hey guys what are we having for dinner?" Steve asked.

'We are having your favorite baked chicken and white rice." Nina responded asshe heads back to the kitchen.

Thirty minutes later

After a delightful dinner, Steve to his room and watching some t.v. For some reason his scar started to fell strange. It was causing him some serious pain, he did everything he can to hide it. He takes a qiuck nap, while he is napping he hears a sinister voice, in the dream he turns and sees a pair of red eyes. The dark figure burst out an evil laughter.

"HAHAHAHA, well well Steve fox i have been waiting for this moment." The dark figure says.

"Who the bloody hell are you?" Steve asked.

"I am you're true self waiting to come out and play." The dark figure burst out another wicked laughter.

"Forget it asshole, its not going to happen." Steve said in anger.

"Just wait and see for yourself." The dark figure dissppears which causes Steve to wake up back into reality.

"What the bloody hell was that all about?" Steve asked himself.

Midnight

Steve wasnt feeling to good for some reason. He takes a walk outside, hoping will make it better. As he continue to walk he was getting worse, he finds a dark alley suddenly he starts sharp claws, fangs and bloddy red fur. An innocent bystander was walking by the alley where Steve, a demon fox jumps on the bystander and attacks him. The demon fox had superhuman strength and can jump long distances. The bystander had bloodstains all over his body. The demon fox was standing on the roof an old building with no one around and late news camera was approaching the scene. The demon fox disappears without a trace. Steve wakes up the next morning without remembering anything.

"That was the best sleep i had ever had." Steve said as he stretches his arms.

He turns on the t.v and watches the news.

"This is news reporter Zafina coming to you live. As of last night, a beast of some sort appears out of nowhere, and attacks a 53 year old citizen by the name of Bruce Irvin who was the first to witness the sight of a beast. Not much details of this creature has been reported as of now, but many are saying that this beast was some sort of demon fox." The news reporter signs out.

Steve turns off the t.v, his heart stared beating in a very fast pace.

"What the hell has happened last night?" Steve asked himself.
