It had taken a long time, but Beyond had managed to get close enough to the pentagram to feel it's presence. She had sat down at a cafe for lunch, hiding L's gun of course, and then felt a surge of unnatural energy. She hadn't felt like that in what felt like an eternity, it was almost an addicting feeling. However, it left as quickly as it came. Beyond looked around, seeing no sign of it. She got up and quickly left the cafe, leaving her half-eaten bagel covered in strawberry jam on the table.
She sniffed the air, trying to see if she could smell the energy but to no avail. She had to get somewhere high up, somewhere she could see a fair distance. Conveniantly, the square she was in had a second story and a rooftop plaza. She took the stairs up, skipping every other step, and made it to the rooftop with no trouble. It was a little windy but she didn't care at the moment, she ran to the wall and tried to look to see if she could see it or anyone with it.
Nothing.
She decided to try an old trick she used to use all the time. She closed her eyes and pictured everything around her in her mind. Once she had a clear picture, she imagined the feeling she had just felt. She willed to feel that feeling again and willed for her mind to pinpoint it's location. All of a sudden, her minds eye started searching everywhere around her. Any normal human would have felt dizzy within seconds. Soon enough, she saw it. It had taken a different form being that it was in the human world now. It was a keychain, and it was attached to the purse of a woman wearing pretty much black clothes and had spikey, purple-streaked hair.
She seemed like the type to put a pentagram on her purse...But that didn't matter. Beyond needed that keychain, that pentagram was going to belong to her. She almost couldn't believe a human had gotten their hands on it, but it probably just seemed like a regular ground-score to anyone. (AN: Ground-score is a common term when you go to music festivals. It's when you find something on the ground and, since the person who lost it probably won't be able to find it again, you keep it. I've ground-scored an anklet, ten bucks, and a hand knit headband before. :D )
As Beyond was breifly contemplating how she would get the pentagram back, she saw three dark figures, quickly moving toward the girl from quite a distance away. Demons. If B left now, she'd probably get there before they did. She quickly ran down the stairs and then in the direction of the girl she had seen. She couldn't stop, she had to get there first. Not only would the demons have forcefully taken the pentagram from girl, they would have killed her for good measure too. After about three minutes of non-stop running, she caught up to the girl.
"Hey!" B screamed after the girl. The girl turned around.
"Hey, what do you want?"
"That keychain you have. Where did you find it?"
"On the ground last night. Why?"
"That's, um, my keychain. I'm sorry. I just saw it on your purse a while ago and thought I recognized it. Do you mind if I could get it back?"
"Oh, this is yours?" The girl held the keychain up by it's chain.
"Yes, I've been looking for it all day today and last night too."
"I see. Sure, you can have it back." The girl tried to unclip it from her purse. B was getting a little anxious now, she could feel the other demons closing in...And fast. The girl had managed to unclip the pentagram and held it out to B. Then at that very moment, B was pulled to the ground.
"AH!" she felt something bite her arm. She looked down and saw the blood swelling up from she wound that had just been made. "Oh no...Don't let go of that pentagram!"
"HUMANS!" one demon screeched, "They have the pentagram!"
"Filthy, dirty, disgusting things! How dare they?" another said.
"Kill them!" the last said.
"Give me the pentagram!" B shouted at the girl, outstretching her arm.
"Okay." the girl started running toward Beyond when she all of a sudden was tripped by an unseen force, dropping the pentagram as she did so. Beyond quickly crawled to it and grabbed in in her fist. She started whispering something to it, closing her eyes.
"ENOUGH!" B screamed out. The pentagram started to enlarge, as well as her fingernails and canines. Horns began to grow from her skull and her eyes turned into a brilliant, blood red. "If you want to fight with someone, fight with someone from your own kind! Come on! We'll battle!"
"Eek! It's Baphomette!"
"She's a rogue! KILL HER!"
"Withdraw! She's too powerful!"
"Not if we all fight at once!"
"Show yourselves first!" B demanded. She materialized two whips out of nowhere. All the while, the girl was laying on the ground, trying not to move but hearing everything that was going on perfectly. "Or go pick on someone your own size!"
"Fine, you fithly rogue!" The three demons materialized themselves, grusome as any demon would be. B didn't recognize them but she honestly didn't care.
"Hide, human," B told the girl, who quickly ran away. B smirked, "Well then," she flicked her wrists, allowing the whips to snap at nothing in particular, "Shall we start?"
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Sorry, this was pretty much a filler chapter. ^^; But now you know that B become a demon again. :) How will L take this?
