Chapter 9: Demonic Memoirs
'He spoke to me once my child. He told me that he yearns to be free from the book. Remember he told me once that if I chose to bear anymore children that she would also accept the task of setting him free of the book.' The woman stood up from the rocking chair on the lawn and stretched her long limbs. 'I must be going now child.'
'Where are you going?' The child asked looking up at her from the ground.
'I am weary and need to rest. I will see you soon, Umiko, for your training.'
Umiko walked up the stairs. Her ear-buds blasted music, which she so desperately needed after being stuck in that room for several hours with a demonic entity. Lin had taken to his room trying to understand the spells that the book held. Of course only two people could read the spells that the book held, one was long dead and the other wouldn't help if her life depended on it.
Not even subtle hints. Nope Umiko was dead set that she wouldn't help the others. They can figure it out themselves. After all she can just take over guard duty when Lin and Naru need rest then she can take a look at the book, since it is of course her inheritance.
"Meow," Kyoko said, appearing from the shadows.
"Yeah, I know." Umiko said turning off the IPod and putting it away into a pocket. "I don't know what to do either."
"Meow," Was her only answer.
"Of course I doubt that you'd have anything to say other than meow." Umiko sighed, while walking into a room. "We need that book if we can figure out what's going on."
The cat rubbed her head on her leg, purring at the idea of stealing what was once her old master's.
"Oh so you want to steal that book." Umiko sat on an antique couch. "That wouldn't work. Maybe if you be the distraction and I steal the book, but then…" She shook her head, "No that wouldn't work. What do you thing?"
The cat looked up at her meowing, her idea.
"No, no way. That thing freaks me out already."
"Meow," translation 'please.'
Umiko paused, her violet eyes flashing. "Actually I have any idea." With that the pair ran out of the room, and towards the tech room.
"It's nice of you to join us Umiko." Naru said, swiveling in his chair to face her.
"Sorry Shibuya, I got a little tied up." Umiko said, crossing her arms.
Naru was about to retort when Kichi broke in, "Now that we're all here, let's get started. Naru if you would."
"From what we have learned is this thing-"
"Things," Umiko broke in.
Everyone looked at her, but Masako and Mai nodded in agree meant.
Naru raised an eyebrow. "Would you care to explain?"
"Certainly, the Book is a demon in itself, and the Shadow is also a demon, if only a weak one but still a demon. The key to solving this lies in the book, and in that book also lies something else, a gateway."
Mai and Masako shivered. "To where?" Mai asked.
Umiko smiled and her eyes flashed, "Where else, Hell."
