"Drip….drip….drip…

Water….where…am I?

It's cold…

My heart…ugh…it…feels like stone…

My head…like led…

Why…why…why…why…

Is this…

Happening…

…to me?

What…did I do so wrong…?"

"….nothing. But the others have."

XXXXXXXXXX

"Ugh…" crystal eyes flickered open…revealing the shimmering blue underneath his dark eyelids…

He was cold…and he felt himself lying on a hard surface…

Drip…drip…

The sound of a single drop of water could be heard repeatedly to the side of his head…ringing around inside his ear.

Guy used his arms to heave himself into a sitting position, his whole body burning…pain etching into his skin and flesh.

He held his arms, shivering, the cold, damp air brushing fiercely past him

"Al…ex…" Guy said, as he looked around…he was back in the cave. But this time, he was in a small, square cage. The rocky floor was hard and sharp under him…and his blood pumped rapidly through his veins in fear. "Alex please…sister I need you…" he found himself asking for her…for the first time in his life.

He wanted to feel her warm body beside him…and her bright eyes staring into his soul…filling his heart with hope…

Alas…he had none of it…

"Alex…I'm so sorry…I left you on your own…you must have been so scared…just like I am now…"

He smiled weakly…a single tear falling…

"You're so strong Alex…look what's become of me…"

Guy hugged his knees, squeezing them tightly. He rested his chin on his arm, and gazed at the floor…

Was this the end…?

Was he…going to die here?

"SNAP OUT OF IT YOU LITTLE TWERP!"

CLANG!

Guy jumped up hearing the voice, hitting his head off the roof of the cave. The demon glared at him with bright yellow eyes, as he banged the bars.

Guy held his head…the noise smashed around against his brain like the sea against jiggered rocks!

"Please…please stop…"

"Ah, your finally back with it" the demon grinned, kneeling down beside the cage to match his height.

"Why…why…do I deserve this?" Guy asked quietly and weak, utterly defeated.

"You don't." the demon smirked, reaching his arm through the bars and ruffling Guy's hair, he edged back a little at the contact "but your friends do…your like I was Gailardia…exactly…like I was…"

XXXXXXXXXX

( Demon's POV )

I was young once…I was human.

You can call me Sparrow…it's not my name but, I guess it can suffice.

I was a young, bright lad with a great future! I helped so many people…for that's the kind of person I was…kind…helpful…I never had a bad word to say about anyone.

Even though I would get bullied…I'd get beaten for nothing, have things stolen from the local boys…

I remember one…his eyes were bright…blue…

Like my own.

My eyes were blue too.

I had an older brother…he was always so tall and handsome…his black hair would always have been slicked back, and his eyes were always hard as stone…

My mother became sick…and I stayed by her side day and night…

My grades at school were failing…and my own health went downhill…

I wiped her chin…

Changed her bed sheets…

And I had to sit beside her and watch the woman I loved the most, slowly fade from this world…

And my brother, was nowhere to be seen.

The day came of her death, and I held my mother's hand…

This is the only time brother showed up. He stood beside her…his face as hard as a stone…

My mother only smiled at him…not me…

Mother said to my brother "Thank you dear…for everything."

And then….she died.

I got no acknowledgement that day…

I was left…all alone in the world…

And the blue eyed boy looked at me…

He was my brother.

He made my blood boil…

My mind turn to dust…

I had been taken for granted…

Everyone…had taken me for granted…

I had done so much for people…and yet…I was left in the dark.

From that day forward, I became the demon…and I would make sure that a person was never taken for granted again.

And if someone were…I would take them away…to make their friends and family realise, you don't know what you have until its gone.

In this big wide world,
So full of people…
Each and every one of them thinking,
"Why am I all alone?"

(( awwww Dx Poor demon :'( ))

XXXXXXXXXX

"You can go…" the demon said to Guy, as he unlocked the cage, and the door slowly squeaked open.

Guy looked up at him, wide eyed.

"I said, you. Can. Go."

"B-But…"

"GO!"

Guy scrambled out the cage, and made a dash for the exit.

He could feel his heart bang against his chest, his blood pulsing through his body as he ran…

He tried to stop, but his legs and heart wouldn't obey his mind.

He kept going, breathing hard.

He was free…at least for now.

XXXXXXXXXX

"Ah! Gailardia! There you are!"

"Hm?" Guy looked to his side as he entered the manor again, her voice snapping him out of his thoughts.

"The king would like to see you in his office."

Oh no…this must be about his outburst yesterday…

His face paled, and he felt a little lightheaded.

What was he going to say to them?!

"O-Ok…I'm going…"

Guy left the maids side, and briskly walked to the king's office…in truth, he just wanted to get this whole meeting over with.

As he reached the door, he stood still outside, taking a deep breath…

knock knock

Guy waited for the booming voice of king Ingobert to speak…before he slowly entered.

He closed the door behind him…and gulped…his heart racing as he saw the King and the Duke standing before him, eyes fixed on him.

"Gailardia Galan Gardios"

Guy opened his mouth to speak out an apology. But he found…once more…he was unable to speak!

{Oh no…not now…please don't take over…please I beg you!} Guy thought, hoping the demon would hear him.

The demon ignored him…and spoke through Guy's body…

"You said my full name…you must mean business" Guy grinned.

"Gailardia! Your behaviour yesterday was unacceptable by any means!" The Duke countered, crossing his arms "Jade and Peony have done a lot for you, so have a bit of respect. Just because you were down yesterday does't mean you can take it out of everyone else!"

{I…I know…but…I didn't want to! I swear! I love Jade and Peony…I respect them so much! I'm sorry!}

That's what Guy thought…instead he said "Shut up! Your not my father! Don't order me around like you own me! Besides, its thanks to you I have no father in the first place!"

Shit…

ARGH! No…this was going all wrong. Guy would never say that willingly…never!

Guy looked at the Duke's face…he looked extremely hurt.

"Now that is enough, Gailardia!" The king raised his voice a little.

"Your're no better off!"

"Gailardia!" The king boomed, sending a wave of panic through him.

{Dammit…NO! I DON'T WANT THIS! STOP IT PLEASE!}

"Gailardia please…" the Duke tried to calm the situation "listen…if it makes you feel better, you may not be the only Gardios left…"

Guy just stared, as he felt a little light headed…the demon had let go! Guy was free! Guy was going to leave the room…but the Duke spoke before he could do so…

"There have been reports that your sister is alive…"

Now Guy was shaking…

The Duke knew…

He and the King had known Alex was alive…

And they had the nerve…to keep it from him!

"What?!" Guy gasped, his body now filling with anger "You knew?! You knew all along and you never told me!"

"Gailardia. I think you should leave. Go and cool down. Now" the king spoke sternly, with great authority.

"But-"

"NOW!"

XXXXXXXXXX

Guy practically fell out of the king's office, the door slamming behind him.

He was on the floor, kneeling…using his arms for support…

His blood raced through his veins rapidly…and he could feel his heart banging against his chest…again…

Why…why was this happening to him?!

Just then…tears began to stream down his face…and they hit the floor with a tiny splash…

Guy was crying…

He couldn't stop it…

He was crying…

"Guy…"

"Guy are you ok?" two soft voices were heard, one of them placed a hand on his shoulder.

Wiping his eyes, he looked up, to see Luke and Natalia beside him.

No…what would he do if the demon possessed him?! He couldn't hurt anyone else…he refused to!

With a small push, Guy shoved them both out the way, before dashing down the hall

"Guy!" Luke and Natalia shouted in unison

"PLEASE DON'T COME NEAR ME! I DON'T WANNA HURT YOU TO!" Guy screamed back at them…

Before fully sprinting out the manor altogether…

Never before…had he felt so alone…

But…he knew there was one person he could go to…

XXXXXXXXXX

Aurthor: OOOOOO! I loved writing this chapter so much! Its the first time I actually had feelings for the demon...and poor Guy! :'(
