Journal Entry
January 21st, 2006
Oh my gosh! Yesterday was a totally fun day! I'm still excited over it! Orin and I went to go get something to eat, but one of his friends (Was it Dan? Danny? Scott? Anyways…) called him (Orin) and told him about something (Orin wouldn't tell me) so we went down to the lower half of the city and Orin brought me to some sort of alleyway, with a door all boarded up, only it looked like a wall. So Orin opens it, and we go down this long flight of stairs, right? And this whole time Orin's telling me to stay close and saying how I should just go home and stuff, but I HAD to find out what was down there. Anyways, we get there, and of all things, it's a BAR! Like with alcohol. Except that there were all sorts of weird people, and even a few weird demon things, it was kind of scary but they all seemed sort of laid back, for demons I mean. Orin threatened to beat some guy up, which was weird because I've seen Orin threaten before, but this demon was really big and burly, and guess what? The demon told Orin ALL about this weird cult that has been hanging around at Alice's Park. It was sort of strange, Orin is a small guy after all, and this thing had horns even. I guess when Orin mentioned his growing reputation, he wasn't lying. Anyways, even though I've helped out Orin before, like Fresh men year when I screamed bloody Mary and pulled the fire alarm to distract everyone from that vampire, I KNEW Orin would need my help for this. I mean, Orin did teach me a few spells after all, and he still doesn't know I've been practicing Alchemy and some basic chants…or he didn't until yesterday. When we found out the cult was summoning a demon, we went to the park and snuck into the cult. I had to pretend to join, because Orin claimed they would recognize him SOMEHOW. So I did. That was scary. But fun. It got sort of weird when they brought out a sacrificial newborn baby though. So Orin managed to steal the baby away while they weren't looking, then they realized I wasn't part of the group. Now THAT was scary. They all had daggers! There was maybe five or six of them. Anyhoo, Orin ran up and started beating a bunch of them up. I ran. Fast. Behind a tree. One of the cultists, the leader, KILLED on of his own members too! And he laid the body down on the area they were in. Just then all of the cultists ran, and a big old demon came out of nowhere! It actually looked kinda like the one in the bar, maybe a cousin or something? Anyways, it just so happened that they needed a sacrifice, and because the cultist leader used his own guy, instead of the newborn baby (Which was safely placed on a bench) the demon went crazy. It almost killed one of the guys running, and then killed the leader that summoned it. How you ask? Well, it threw one of the cultists into a bush, and then snapped the leaders neck. Yeah, it was gross. But the guy was sacrificing babies, keep in mind! Anyways, Orin ran at the demon, did some fancy moves, and then got thrown into a trashcan. So I, the brave and noble person I am, ran over to the summoning circle thingy, and chanted. Yes. Just so happened I had read on how to do such a spell earlier that day. Coincidence? Probably. Anyways, Orin was getting thrown all over, but still fighting the demon, and I managed to pull off the chant, and voila, the demon was transported back into its realm of hell or wherever it comes from. Orin applauded me, adding that he was just about to kill it of course, but whatever. He was grateful. Looks like I proved useful yet again. What a blast though! I'm going to practice more with magic from now on, just so I can help out and save babies and stuff, its really fun. I don't understand why Orin complains about it. Anyways, its getting late and I need to finish my homework for tomorrow. Will write soon. Adios.
