Humans and demons use to get a long peacefully, keyword use to. But with exception of the humans who hated demons, and demons who hate humans. Over the course of the years demons were finally being accepted into society and some even began to hold government positions with the distasteful humans who constantly insulted them. With the mixture of humans and demons some got married and had half demons. Hundreds of years ago half demons were wiped off of the face of the earth. Now there were rules, safety lines if you will, set up to prevent demon/human couples from having children, but that goal was impossible to keep. The half demon population quickly grew. Humans nor did demons accept them. The only ones who accepted half demons were the parents and the parents relatives. It was the same as last time when half demons existed. They are seen in both eyes as an abomination to both kinds. So after not being able to control the half demon population the human government leaders made it so that half demons could not go to public schools. This outraged the demons. For many demons had married a human therefor had half demon family members and children. They believed that their children should go to a public school with humans and demons and not be treated unfairly. Demons moved for a change in the law but none of the humans in the government budged to throw out the law. This angered the demons even more and the humans who had half demon children. One day at a riot something horrible happened, something that would change the course of history and rip the peace apart for good. The demons began to protest the law and force was used on them to clear them from the streets. Some humans and demons were murdered. The hatred grew more, it spread like a dead virus, and reached millions like wild fire. Japan was no exception in this as well. They too had homicides on their hands and riots to break up. Mobs formed, both human and demons. Cities fell apart as did small towns. Demons lived in ghettoes as did humans. There would be gang fights and wars as well. The demons who held government positions in every country were forced out of office. Once again the half demons found themselves stuck in the middle of it all. Humans raised human children to be demon slayers and demons raised their children to be human slayers. This story is about a demon slayer and a demon who try to be together no matter what the odds are.
-In the human ghetto in down town Tokyo, Japan-
A demon slayer quickly ran through the streets. Her long dark hair blowing around behind her. She wore something over her nose and mouth to protect herself from miasma, which some demons used in a last desperate resort to save themselves. The full moon's light danced around on her creamy colored and shinned off of her black outfit that she wore on every slaying mission. Her weapon laid settled on her back, moving around at times when she made tight turns. A young demon had made the mistake of coming into the ghetto and she was now chasing it, hot on it's trail. The young demon came to a quick stop once it saw it had run into the dead end. They young demon boy quickly turned around to see the demon slayer quickly approaching on him. She came to a halting stop and glared down at him. He fell to the ground.
"Don't kill me." He pleaded with tears in his dark eyes.
She looked down upon him. She wanted to take pity upon him and spare his life but if she did she would be kicked out of the ghetto she currently resided in and she would be known as a demon lover. She lifted her weapon above her head. Tears sparkled in her hazel eyes and she shut them tight as she brought her mighty weapon down. She opened her eyes slowly to see if she had hit her target but only to see a beautiful young woman demon holding her weapon with one hand, the boy coward behind the older demon. Her eyes grew wide in amazement and shock. How could she stop my attack?! She thought, her mind racing and her heart skipping beats.
"Who are you demon?" The slayer asked trying to keep a calm composure.
"I don't give out my name to humans." The demon replied, hate flickering within her deep, cold ice blue eyes.
"All right then why stop my assault?"
The young woman demon let out a soft chuckle then stated," you were about to kill one of my own kind. How could I see him get killed?" Her dark black hair was pulled back into a ponytail and a thin black cloth covered her mouth and nose. She had black jeans on and a black halter top. She was wearing black army combat boots, likely stolen from a human soldier. The demon continued to hold onto the demon slayer's weapon.
"No I didn't expect you to stand by and watch him get killed." She answered softly. She stared into the ice blue eyes of the demon who held her weapon. Those ice blue eyes were so cold, so full of dark hatred.
The young woman gripped tighter onto the weapon, cracking a huge chunk of it off. She tossed it a side and turned to walk away. "looks like no more demons have to fall to your weapon for a while." Came the cold voice. She picked up the demon boy and held him close as she leapt into the air and landed perfectly on her feet at the top of the brick wall. She looked down at the demon slayer. After a few moments of gazing at one another the woman demon took off into the night's sky holding the boy.
The demon slayer took off her the old fashion gas mask she wore and let it fall to the ground. "Why did she spare me my life? When she could have easily taken it?" She asked herself softly as she watched the beautiful woman disappear into the night.
-A few minutes later in the demon ghetto in down town Tokyo, Japan-
The demon's feet softly touched onto the ground. She sat the boy down and as soon as he was on the ground he ran over to his mother and hugged her. she picked him up into warm, loving arms. Behind the cloth the young demon smiled softly.
"Thank you." The mother cried.
"None needed." She stated smiling more at the joy that the mother and son were letting out from being reunited. The moment was short lived when the young woman demon's boss walked into the ally.
"Envy." His chilling voice crept out.
She turned on her heels. "Yes boss?" She asked removing the cloth.
"Good job tonight saving the young boy." He said softly, a smile creeping it's way onto his lips.
Envy nodded at him. "Thanks sir." She answered bowing a little bit.
"Head back to your place Envy. You need to save your strength. Tomorrow is another day of hard work." He stated then vanished.
Envy rubbed her temples a little bit and groaned. Not that she hated saving her kind but at times she thought that some of the demons deserved to sink into the dark abyss of death.
