"When one person is cursed, two graves are dug." By Ai Enma Hell Girl

Lyall's Pov

"It's not over." I whispered. When I disappeared from Vlad's arms I knew I was no longer back in the dungeon. I was… what you call the in between. It's a place where wondering souls don't make it to heaven and wonder for all entirety. Which makes them very vulnerable to demons if they cross their territory. They can be used as there toys or food. But the in between is not just for souls or demons, it's also a gateway to other dimensions and back to the real world.

For travelers like myself have come across many dominions but we always have to be careful. One wrong move and we could be stuck in the in between forever and never return to the real world… or worse.

But enough of that, I felt I was in another room with a long hallway. I slowly start to regain my eyesight. Once it returned, I took a closer look at my surroundings. It looked like I was in a castle with a long stone hallway with paintings and doors surrounding me. I noticed on my right there was a wooden table with a candle and a match. I walked up to the table with a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness. If I didn't have any source of light I would be demon food." I thought. Demons were very vulnerable when it comes to light since there so used to the dark. Makes it a great weapon. I lit a match and brought it up to the candle. Once it was lit I lifted the candle gently, feeling the warm wax in the palm of my hand and started walking down the long hall.

The further I went down the more anxious I became. I didn't know why but I felt like I walked in this castle before. I didn't know whether to be calm or freaked out. My eye wonder to the doors on the left. In total there was two. One was pure white with gold trim. Innocent. The other one was dark brown wood with green vines all around it. "This looks like my home door." I thought with certainty.

I walked up to it. About to open the handle to my so called home. Seeing if my body was there.But I hesitated for a moment, hearing voices from the door. I pressed my ear to the door to see if I can hear properly. "Ahhhh… no… stop." A women moaned. " I won't stop, you love this you little slut." A man grunted. "Dad!?" I thought in shock. " Please, I can't take much more… what if your wife found out?" The women sighed/moaned.

"What wife? All that bitch did was get a good fuck from me and got pregnant and left me a burden on my doorstep." my father snarled making harsh thrusting sounds. " Ah! Ah! Ah!" The women painted. "That's… that's a lie!" I thought while shaking my head in denial. I wanted to move away from the door but I was frozen in place.

" If that brat wouldn't have been born I would still be rich today! Damnit!." My dad yelled while thrusting faster. "Yes! That's it baby! That's it daddy! Let out your anger !." The women screamed in pleasure. "Shut up! Your supposed to be my daughter right now. She maybe a brat but she looks like her mother. God I want her." My father smacked the women. "What!?" I thought in shock, my blood going cold. " They way she looks so helpless when I beat her. They way her body is painted with bruises, and her face… god her face, it gets me so turned on. God Lyall! Lyall!." My dad screamed in pleasure while calling my name.

"Yes daddy, come!" The women screamed. "Stop it… stop it!" I whispered.

"I'm coming! Lyall, I'll find you!" My dad grunted. "AHHHHHHH!" The woman screamed.

"STOP!!!!!!!" I screamed. I pushed myself away from the door and crumbled to the ground crying.

The door suddenly turned to ash, disappearing without a trace. But I didn't care. "My father… my father is a monster!" I screamed with tears falling down my face. After what seemed like hours but only minutes I realized my dad said he will find me. That means he hasn't found my body yet. "I got to find my body. Before he finds me." I thought while shaking, forcing myself to stand up.

Once again with the candle clenched to my hands I started running down the hall. Trying to find my way out.

The hall was endless, not seeing another door in sight. I was starting to lose hope until… "Inger…" someone said. I stopped and listened more closely. "My Inger… don't leave me!" he said. "Vlad!" I shouted in realization. He kept repeating the same thing, over and over. 'Don't leave me.'. "What does he mean? Wait! What am I doing!? I don't have time for this! I have to get out of here!" I scolded myself while shaking my head back and forth, my eyes clenched shut.

But once I reopened them I was faced with another door but this one was different. It was the red door. Blood red with golden trimming. "The red door." I whispered. "My Inger." he said. "Vald! It's coming from the red door!" I though with realisation. I started walking towards the door, the marking burning to life the closer I got to the door. "Vlad? Is that you?" I asked. "My Ingerrrr." he hissed. I didn't notice the hissing sound, too distracted by the red door. I was about to touch the doorknob until someone grabbed my shoulder and pulled me back. " You can't." She spoke softly.

Hissss!

Then a burst of energy burst out of the red door and knocked me over on my back, which resulted in dropping my candle somewhere on the floor. "Ahh!" I squeaked in pain. "Hisss." Is said. I slowly lifted myself up, grabbing my wrists in pain.

I gazed up with the wrists close to my chest and saw a clawed hand coming out of the red door, then the rest of its body.I got a real good look at the demon. It was a black dusted, shadow figure with built muscle. Two blood eyes, razor sharp teeth… I… I never saw a demon like this in my life.

I shaked in terror. " Well, well we meet again. I told you… there will be consequences." It hissed with a smirk on its face. I couldn't speak, too terrified to even move. Till someone grabbed my wrists and started running.

HISSSSS

It roared in anger and started chasing us. I looked at my savour in shock. "Juliet?".
