Jeremy could only gape at the powerful aurora of white light that surrounded Dusk's body. He appeared more an angel or some other symbol of power. Not only power, but as the fox watched him slowly gaze around the area with his eyes, which were now gold instead of blue, he felt a massive feeling of piece that seemed to spread like a cure through the house. He blinked several times before shaking his head and managed to stammer out.
"...D-Dusk...you...you're..." His attempt to speak ended as the golden eagle like eyes turned to him, smiling warmly, and he looked a little frightened, though he knew Dusk would never in a million years hurt him, this power scared him, if not only to a small degree. He tried to speak again but nothing could come out except a small.
"...I..." Dusk smiled again, and without breaking eye contact with him, said in a very soft and gentle voice.
"Don't worry...every thing's fine buddy, relax. Trust me." Jeremy's eyes widened, suddenly feeling a wave of warmth flow over him, and instantly mentally and physically calming down. He turned back towards the Alison and smiled. She was in no better condition that Jeremy. Before she could speak he began another speech, with the same calm and even voice. "...It's alright, this is my most powerful form, it allows me to banish the most powerful entities back into hell. In this form I am also half spirit, so I am immortal as long as I am in this form, though I can't sustain it for too long." He turned towards the stair case, and at that moment their were several loud bangs and it began. Books, nick knacks, and other items began flying threw the air, opposite across the room of where they had started. Then all at once the drawers in the kitchen began flying open and shut, as the contents continually fell out. Dusk chuckled and shook his head, though in a more holy and powerful state, cockiness seemed to increase as well. "Is that all you can do?"
As if on que, a large butchers knife flew out of the drawer, repositioned itself in mid-air and hurled out of the kitchen straight for Jeremy's head. Dusk's eagle-like eye was too quick, it was on the knife before it even started flying. His arm flew out and pointed at the young fox as a bright blue shield appeared, a small one only concentrated on the knife's target. The knife collided and bounced off like a Nerf gun bullet, made countless flips in the air and made a chinging sound as it landed in the wood of the coffee table. Dusk chuckled though, seeing that Jeremy had done a back flip himself out of the way of the knife before it even got ten feet from him.
"Heh, I keep forgetting your not helpless anymore." Jeremy landed on the back of the couch in mid air with only his hands out-stretched, flew down onto the couch in a standing position and grinned.
"Tch, what do you think I was doing for 5 years as a Freedom Fighter?" Dusk smiled and nodded, as he looked back to see Alison whimpering quite loudly in the corner. He frowned, he needed her to speed up the banishing process, but if this continued the demon would see her as the only vulnerable target, and it would become more dangerous. Taking a deep breathe and dodging a rouge book as it hurtled past him, he made a decision. He turned once again to Alison, and had to say her name several times, louder on each time around to get her attention at last.
"Alison! In this from I'm able to neutralize the negative force, and then send it through the portal. The problem is demon's don't particularly like going back, and will hang on with every ounce of their being to stay in your house. I myself will eventually send it through, but it takes time, sometimes it takes more than 10 minutes, depending on the demon's power level." He dodged another lamp. "That's where you come in, this is your house, your home. If you tell it too leave and it's neutralized and already hanging on to this realm it won't be able to hold on and we can get rid of it much faster." Alison watched him as she shook, but nodded and slowly stood up, before she screamed as her hair was suddenly pulled back, forcing her backwards. Dusk growled and his eyes flared at the space behind her hair and not a moment later it let go.
Jeremy seemed to lose his cool a little over the fact the demon could touch him instead of simply hurling continuous projectiles, but it never did touch him. Dusk smirked as he saw the slight look of nervousness In Jeremy's eyes but he didn't say anything, mostly because he needed to do it now, if not then this would only get worse. He suddenly and promptly sat down, clamped his hands together once again, and began chanting, as he did his left eye opened and looked at Jeremy.
"Jeremy, protect Alison, I'm going to neutralize it." He closed both eyes and concentrated, as Jeremy nodded, and ran over to in front of Alison, as he continued to hit and kick away anything flying by, and generally protecting her from anything else. The chaos continued and soon book shelves fell, the chandlers shook violently, and even electronics began going on and off. Dusk seemed perfectly balanced, and even though the house soon began shaking like and earthquake had struck Alison's living room, he did not slide or shake at all. Jeremy began to look nervous, he couldn't help if it went on and got any worse. He, in somewhat desperation for the fox to hurry up, called out his name.
"Dusk!" Dusk's eyes a second later shot open, and like he had done in the cemetery a few weeks back, both his arms flew to either side of him, and a large blue shock wave of light seemed to fly out from his body at the speed of light, only visible to the two for a moment. The moment the shock wave had hit the house, all the shaking, all the noise, all the flying objects, all came to sudden halt. Books and things clattered to the floor, and things finally stopped moving around, and all was eerily quite. Dusk gave a deep sigh, and then his hands flew back together, as the entire room light up, as it all began to turn whiter. Alison and Jeremy looked around, as Dusk spoke.
"Alison, now." As if having rehearsed this entire scene previously, the yellow haired cat walked out in front of Dusk, facing the main part of the living room, the kitchen and the stairs. She took a deep breathe and frowned, and then did exactly what she wanted to do for a long time, but could never accomplish.
"Get out of my house! You have no right here! You have no power of me, this house or my children! I will not allow you to torment us! Get out! Get out! GET OUT!" There was an un-earthly howl of some sort of hell-ridden creature from somewhere near them, and then a loud bang, and the house was back to it's original color, and everything was back where it was supposed to be, looking like nothing had ever happened. Alison gaped as Dusk stood up, his gleaming fur no back to it's original simple white color as well. There was a long silence, as not any of the three of them knew exactly what to say. Jeremy was still gaping at how everything magically returned to normal as Alison turned to Dusk and simply smiled, smiled and started to cry. "You...thank you...thank you so much!" She hugged him and cried into his shoulder with joy, as he smiled and patted her back.
"Your welcome. I believe you will not have any more problems with your home." She leaned back and nodded, letting go off him and wiping her eyes. Dusk looked at Jeremy, and he did back, as they both smiled; A job well done.

It's ear twitched, as the whimpering still came from the person in front of it. It's attention suddenly looked left, out past the buildings and past the entire city and far away mountains. It gazed out as a wide, evil grin came to it's face. Then it turned back to the man, a panda, in his 30's or so, against the wall being held there by one hand of the black fox.
"P-please! I beg you! Please don't kill me! I have a family!" It only grinned and began laughing hysterically, before moving it's face closer to his.
"Good, that's even better..."
"AHHHHHHH!!!" There was a loud slash, of a blade or some other sharp thing cutting through flesh, and the panda fell from the things grasp and slumped down the brick wall to the ground, where he laid motionless. A large trail of blood lining where his body had met the wall. A small pool of it gathering under him. A silhouette, a large twitching tail, two pointed ears, and two red eyes that were slit in the way of a snakes. His hand raised to his mouth, and a long, almost pointed tongue grazed the edge of his claw, as he let out a small chuckle will looking at the body.
"So sorry..." His eyes turned towards the place he had been starring at a moment ago. "...But it looks like one of my subordinates has been banished...which means my prey...has finally been found."
