Chapter 7
"SHIT!" Shaun screamed into the night air. He turned and saw Eva still sat by Gracie's body. Shaun felt more tears fall down his face again. He slowly walked over to Eva, who was crying still. He slumped himself next to her and wrapped his arms around her. She hugged him back and then the pair got up.
"Come on, we've got to find Alex." Said Eva. She took her leather jacket off and placed it over Gracie's face. Shaun placed his arm around her.
"How exactly are we going to do that?" asked Shaun, rather moodily. Eva looked at him.
"Because, Alex cleverly put a following tag on Tim before he knocked her out and took her away. Look, it says they're in Leicester Square!" Said Eva standing back towards the car. Shaun looked puzzled as he was getting in the car.
"Won't it take like, six hours to get back down to the South?" asked Shaun doing his seatbelt up.
"Na, coz me and Gracie poomed it." Said Eva, smiling slightly. She stepped her foot down and the car sped off down the road.
"Rise and shine sleeping beauty." Whispered Tim, into Alex's ear. She awoke with a start and found herself sprawled out on the floor. Tim smiled and sat down next to her. She quickly sat up and crawled away from him.
"Crawl all you want bitch, you aint going anywhere." Said Tim, grabbing her ankle and pulling her back towards him. She turned and kicked him in the face. Tim smiled, as black blood dribbled from his nose, and he grabbed Alex by the throat.
"Don't even try it. You're stupid boyfriend couldn't, so don't you try either."
Alex smiled.
"Well, last time I looked, Shaun was handling you pretty well, dick- HEAD!" exclaimed Alex. Tim smiled once again and slammed her head against the floor.
"You see Alex. That's just plain mean. Don't do that, coz you hurt my feelings." Said Tim smiling.
"You have feelings?" asked Alex, rubbing her head. Tim turned.
"No, but I like to pretend I do. It messes peoples heads up." Tim laughed. Alex looked at him, quite scared, as Tim slowly walked towards her.
"Why did you take me anyways?" asked Alex, slowly backing away from him again.
"Because, Shaun would do anything to protect you. And seeing as we are both supposed to die, I thought I'd put half my heart into you-" Alex was scared now."- because if Shaun kills me, he kills you too." Tim smiled.
" That's just evil." Alex exclaimed again.
"Well duh! What do you expect. I'm a fucking Demon. Jesus, you should think before you say." Said Tim, grabbing her by the throat again. He picked her up and threw her against the floor. A car screeched to a halt behind them again. Shaun clambered out from the seat and fell out onto the floor. He quickly got back up and faced Tim.
All the demons began to walk towards him. Tim held up his hand, and they all stopped.
"Hello Shaun." Said Tim, slowly walking towards Shaun.
"Hi, nice to meet you again." Said Shaun, standing on the spot. Tim smiled. Suddenly without warning, Laurie came from nowhere, on a Harley Davidson motorbike. She back flipped off it and landed next to Alex. She pulled Alex's arm, but Alex stayed where she was.
"Alex come on, we have to get you out of here."
"I can't." said Alex.
Tim looked perplexed.
"Shaun, are you so sad that you can only find an army of little girls?" asked Tim in a mocking manner. Laurie walked towards him.
"I'm not a little girl-"
"You are to me honey." Tim waved his hand, and Laurie fell to the floor screaming in pain. Alex ran towards her, but Tim sent her flying towards a wall. She crashed against it and crumpled to the floor. Anger flooded Shaun's body. He flew at Tim and beat him around the head. Tim flew and done several accidental flips backwards and landed, doing the splits.
Laurie burst into laughter.
"Fuck, lucky I'm dead, or that could have been incredibly painful." Tim said to himself, getting back to his feet.
"What like this?" Said Shaun. He power-housed Tim to the floor and stood on his neck. Alex fell to the floor clutching her neck as well.
" Ah ah ah! Wouldn't do that if I were you Shaun. You see, when I took your little girl away from you, I combined both our hearts," Shaun slowly took his foot off Tim's neck." Meaning, that you kill me, she dies too." Tim smiled. Shaun stood backwards, looking down at Tim with anger. Laurie lunged at Tim again, but this time, Tim waved his arms. Sharp daggers flew from the sky and stabbed, individually into Laurie. She screamed in pain and fell to the floor.
" NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Eva screamed. She jumped out of the car, with a crossbow.
"Eva NOOO!" Shaun screamed, just as she pulled the trigger. Tim didn't move fast enough, and it caught him straight in the chest. Tim yelled in pain. Alex screamed and fell to the floor.
"Alex!" Shaun yelled. The demons slowly started to disappear. Tim staggered slightly and then laughed.
"Too late Shaun, she's already DEAD!" He screamed. He fell onto his hands and arched his back. Big, bat wings stabbed through his skin and out through his back. His teeth grew sharp and jagged, his skin dark pitch black and his eyes crimson red.
Shaun stood as Tim flew at him.
"Oh FUCK!" He yelled as he was flung into the air. Tim turned and stabbed him through the chest with his massive claw. Shaun gasped in pain. Tim smiled and roared. Shaun slowly pulled himself off Tim's claw and fell to his knees. Eva ran at Tim, but was cut short. Tim threw a sharp blade and it cut Eva in half. She stopped and her body fell in two. Shaun felt tears pour down his cheeks again.
Everything went in slow motion again.
"How does it feel, because the people you swore to protect, now lay dead at your feet." He heard Tim's voice echo.
Shaun screamed into the air around him, his tears rolling down his bloodied cheeks. He looked around and saw the bodies scattered over the floor. He cried out loud and Tim laughed at him. Suddenly, Shaun stopped. He felt a sharp stabbing pain in his back. He bent onto his hands and began to yell in pain. Huge, white wings burst out of his back and he stood tall. Tim looked in shock as Shaun got back on his feet. Shaun glowed a golden colour and he stood, staring back at Tim and a smile appeared on his face. Quick as a flash, there was a flash and Tim stood rooted to the spot. A dark line of blood appeared around his neck.
"Oh fuck I should of seen that coming." Tim turned back to his normal form. He looked in shock at Shaun, and his head slowly rolled off his neck. His body crumpled to the floor and a dark black spirit flew from the body and sailed into the air. The sky turned back to normal, apart from dark clouds appeared and rain began to pour. Everyone all over the world had watched the battle after the demons had disappeared.
Shaun, still in his angel form, had an epiphany.
"If I'm still angel, that means, I can bring them back." He said to himself.
He ran over to Eva and pulled her top half and middle half back together. He hugged her, and a dark red stab wound appeared in his abdomen. Eva was in one piece again, but lay unconscious on the floor. He gasped in pain and staggered over to Alex. His wings had disappeared, leaving big gashes in his shoulders. He spread his hand over her chest and a stab wound appeared deeper than the one in his chest. He screamed in pain as blood started to pour down his chest.
He slowly got himself up and staggered over to Laurie. He ripped all of the knives out. He grasped her body until all of the wounds had appeared in his.
Alex awoke and saw what he was doing. She slowly got up and when she saw the state he was in, she ran over immediately. The last wound had gone from Laurie.
"Shaun!" Alex called. Shaun turned and let out a little smile. He then collapsed and Alex caught him in her arms. She fell to her knees and held Shaun.
"Alex." Shaun gasped. Alex stopped him from speaking and cuddled him up in her arms. She knew he was going to die.
"Alex I'm sorry for shouting at you earlier." He said, his voice starting to drift. He began to feel heavier in her arms.
"No." she said. She shook him and he awoke again." You can't go to sleep Shaun. Help is on it's way." She said calmly. Shaun smiled.
" I love you, you know?" he said, weakly. He suddenly gasped in pain.
" Shaun no!" Alex cried. Shaun screamed in agony. The people who had recently fled were now crowding around them both.
"No Shaun, you can't leave. I need you baby. You promised me you wouldn't let anything happen to us." Alex cried, tears streaming down her face. Laurie and Eva slowly awoke in the background. They looked in sad horror as Shaun lay in Alex's arms, slowly bleeding to death.
"Alex." Shaun whispered weakly. Alex lifted him closer to her. Shaun didn't finish the sentence. His eyes rolled up into his head and slowly closed. His head lolled backwards.
" No Shaun!" Cried Alex. She tried shaking him awake again, but his eyes stayed closed. Blood slowly dribbled out from his mouth. His whole body had gone limp and heavy.
" Shaun, wake up baby please! I love you!" she cried. Laurie threw herself from the floor and slumped down nest to Alex.
" Alex come on, he's dead." She said pulling her away.
" He's not dead. He's not." She declared, pulling away from Laurie's hand. Some people from the crowd of citizens stepped forward. They began to pull Shaun away from Alex. Alex screamed and tried to desperately cling on to him, but Laurie pulled her back.
"Alex-"
"He's not dead!"
" Alex look at me." Laurie turned Alex's face to look at her.
"Alex, I'm so sorry." Said Laurie, breaking down into tears. Alex screamed out and fell to the floor, clutching Laurie. Laurie fell down with her. The pair sat, with Alex crying deeply into Laurie's shoulder. Eva came and sat down next to them. The rain poured and the whole world stood in silence.
