The Wizard and the Half-Demon

Me: HI! So I finally caught Howl. *points to Howl tied up in a chair with duck-tape on his mouth* He was in a closet, shaking, and looking around nervously. When I found him, he looked like he froze in fear. Weird, huh.

Howl: MMMMPPPPHHHH!

Me: *kicks him, while looking and smiling widely at the reviewers* Before I forget, PLEASE DON'T SUE ME! I forgot the disclaimer last chapter. Sorry. I don't own Howl's Moving Castle. I only own Howl.

Howl: *glares at me* Mm mmm mmmm!

Me: *sigh* Alright fine I don't own Howl, no matter how much I wish I did. I only own Half-Demon Sophie. So here's another chapter! Enjoy!

Ch.2

I went into the actual shop and modeled my cloak and hat. I smiled for a second, but then I frowned, pulled the hat down even farther and left to visit my sister.

I walked across the road. I know everyone turned to look at me. But I ignored them and kept walking.

I hopped on the edge of bus and it started moving. I know all the women looked at me with disgust and the men started at me with lust. Ha, I made a rhyme. Yeah, I know I'm wearing a cloak and hat, but everyone in town knows it's me.

And I know that I told you that demons & half-demons are outcasts, but that doesn't mean I'm unattractive. I have, um, features.

The bus ride was slow because of the parade. I still don't understand why they are having a parade. We're in the middle of a war, and we don't seem to be winning. Actually, neither side is winning. I tell ya, humans can be far worse than demons most of the time.

I think the other side thinks we kidnapped their prince or something like that. Honestly, it's all stupid, if you ask me.

I got off the bus and walked to the alley so I would be out of sight. I walk into it and see a soldier. I gasp and walk faster.

It's not like I can't fight them and win. Cause I can. It's just that they never leave me alone. They keep flirting with me.

I walked past the soldier with no problems and walked down some stairs. I watch the parade for a second, and then I check the directions my sister gave me.

I followed them down the alley. I wasn't paying attention and I almost walked into someone. Unfortunately, that someone happened to be a soldier. And he didn't seem like he was going to leave me alone anytime soon.

I gasped, since he surprised me.

"Hey" he said in a flirty voice, "Looks like the little wolf lost her way."

"No, I'm not lost" I said trying to be polite.

"The little wolf looks thirsty, we should take her for a cup of tea" the soldier said. Uh-oh, he said we. Just as I thought that, the other soldier came around him.

"No thanks, my sister's expecting me" I said, still trying to be polite. Though if this keeps up, I'll lose my cool.

"She is cuter than the descriptions that the other soldiers say" The second soldier said. I hate men.

"Leave me alone!" I said, this close to growling at them.

"You see you mustache even scares wolfie here" soldier 1 said.

"So, I think she's even cuter when she's scared" soldier 2 said. Ok, that's it.

"I'm not scared, I'm mad!" I growled at them. I see a little fear in their eyes.

"There you are sweetheart. Sorry I'm late" another voice said, putting an arm on my shoulder. Oh no, not another one. "I was looking all over for you"

The first two soldiers looked up from me and looked at the mystery man.

"Hey, hey, we're busy here" Soldier 1 said. I growled again, only louder.

"Are you really?" mystery man said. "It looked to me like the two of you were just leaving." He lifted his hand and made motions with it.

The two soldiers left, though it looked against their will. Oh great, not only is it another man, it's a wizard. I have enough flirting from the soldiers, I don't need wizards flirting with me too.

"Don't hold it against them. Their actually not all that bad" mystery man said to me.

"Hmph, could've fooled me" I said, crossing my arms. The mystery man looked amused. I looked at him. He was blond with glass green eyes. Hmm, his voice sounds just as handsome as he looks. Wait a minute, what am I thinking?! I hate men! All they do is flirt and show off!

"Where to? I'll be your escort this evening" he said.

"Oh, that's ok. You don't have to" I said.

"I insist" mystery man said. For some reason, I feel like letting him.

"Well, I'm just heading to the bakery" I said. I don't think he knows who I am. I feel a little breeze. I hope my hat doesn't fly off.

"Don't be alarmed, but I'm being followed. Act natural" he said to me. Yeah, you're being followed, and you say not to be alarmed. You know, people get alarmed when you just say don't be alarmed. I mean, come on!

He looped my arm into his and we started walking.

Even though, my ears are hidden in my hat, I can still hear better than humans, even if their wizards. I can something that sounds like sludge behind us.

"Sorry, it looks like you're involved" mystery man said. My eye twitches. Great.

I see blob like creatures come out of the walls in front of us. I think I'm hallucinating.

"This way" mystery man whispers. We turn into a different alley and start to fast-walk. I hold my hat with one hand. Now, we started running.

More blob creatures come out.

"Hold on" the mystery man says. He grabs my waist and we start to fly up. Just in time too. Right when we jumped the blob creatures tried to attack us.

"Now, straighten your legs and start walking" he says. He grabs my other hand while I'm walking in the air. I can feel my hat flipping. Uh-oh.

I grab my hand back and put it on my hat. I think he is a little confused on why, but I don't care. I can see the bakery. We start to go down towards it.

Now he's laughing. "You are a natural" he says to me. How come nobody has seen us?

We land on the bridge-like thing that surrounds the top of the bakery.

"I'll make sure to draw them off,but wait a minute before you go back outside" he says. I nod my head.

"Ok. And thank you for helping me with those soldiers" I say to him.

"You're welcome" he says. Then he jumps backwards off the building. I gasp and run to the edge, looking for him.

"Oh, wait, duh!" I say, smacking my forehead, "wizard!"

End of Ch.2

Me: End of chapter 2! I hope you liked this chapter. It's longer than last chapter. If you haven't noticed I changed some lines. Which I kind of have to.

Howl: *smiles* Half-Demon Sophie is intresting.

Me: I know. Just don't say that in front of your wife.

Howl: But their the same person

Me: *shakes head* No they aren't. Not only do they look different, their personalities are different as well. Half-Demon Sophie is more aggressive and, um, complicated, than your wife Sophie.

Howl: Oh

Me: Yeah. Anyway, please review. BYE-BYE!
