Three years have passed since he was adopted by Felina the Red Phoenix, a young male Black Owl chick is busy playing with his two older adoptive siblings. The two were having a joyful time together, especially when they always made sure to look after each other. It was a promise, that they planned on keeping for the rest of their lives.
The young male Black Owl chick is called Jameson, he has an elder brother called Arnold and an elder sister called Alberta. These two always made Jameson smile, knowing that they are looking out for each other as that is the agreement they had with their mother, Felina, who watched them play. She smiled at the sight of them, playing.
After playing together, the three children began to have some lunch with their mother. When they were finished, they went back outside to play as they began to play hide and seek together with Arnold doing the seeking while Jameson and Alberta did the hiding. The three children took turns, which meant the role rotated between the three.
When it was his turn to do the seeking, the young Jameson began to hear an mysterious voice calling out to him as he began to try to find the source. It took a total of twenty minutes, before he found himself looking at an mysterious black ooze as it started to move towards Jameson. The latter managed to keep his distance from the black ooze.
Suddenly a head appeared from the ooze, which horrified Jameson as he couldn't believe what he is seeing at this very moment. The black oozed head had two white slits for it's eyes, it also had a long pinkish tongue as well as a large set of sharp teeth in it's mouth. This only caused Jameson to become more horrified, knowing that it was creepy.
He knew that he shouldn't be gone for long, although he was still curious about the slimy black ooze that is in front of him. He has never seen one before, it's clear to him that it appears to be completely harmless as he wonders if he can actually touch it. Luckily he thought better of it, until something amazing and unexpected happened.
"Hello there, little one, it's a pleasure to meet you" said the black ooze head as it talked in an venom-like voice. "I am Devil Darkness, your symbiote bonder, kiddo".
"A symbiote?, but, you look very creepy and scary" said Jameson as he looked at Devil Darkness with fear. "Also, you can talk too?, well, you do have a mouth after all".
"Yes, I know, but, we don't have much time, kiddo" said Devil Darkness as he crawled over to Jameson. "Because you see, I am being hunted by someone, someone evil".
"You're being hunted?, but, who's hunting you?" asked Jameson as he began to feel sorry for the symbiote. "Who would want to hunt you?, that is just not right at all".
"The hunter's name is Mac, he hopes to use me" said Devil Darkness as he began to feel anger building up. "He has six of my children, now he wants to have me, too".
"Children?, you're saying, there's more of you?" asked Jameson as he quickly realised what this meant. "So, this means that you're on some kind of a rescue mission?".
"That's correct, plus I am extremely hungry" said Devil Darkness as he aimed a creepy smile at Jameson. "I will eat anyone or anything, that I find to be tasty and delicious".
"Ok, that's creepy and disgusting, actually" said Jameson as he felt himself wanting to puke at the mere thought. "Besides, I am just a kid, you should not be saying that".
"I'm sorry, but, I can't help it, if I'm honest" said Devil Darkness as he took the time to quietly study Jameson. "You will be an excellent host, the two of us will get along".
"Host?, wait-wait-wait, what do you mean?" asked Jameson as he wondered about Devil Darkness's intentions. "Please don't tell me, that you are going to be stuck in me?".
"Don't worry, it is extremely painless, kiddo" said Devil Darkness as he gave Jameson a final creepy smile. "I look forward to working with you, it should be a lot of fun".
Before Jameson could say or do anything, he can only watch as Devil Darkness attached himself onto his stomach. After getting himself on Jameson's stomach, Devil Darkness began to painlessly enter Jameson's body as he soon disappeared from sight. This only caused Jameson to become shocked at what just happened.
A few seconds after he had fainted, Jameson was found by Arnold and Alberta as they quickly became worried for their adoptive younger brother. The two got both themselves and Jameson home, where they told their mother about what happened as Felina's motherly instincts kicked in as she hoped that Jameson will recover.
While she checked on Jameson, Arnold and Alberta could only watch as their mother was checking to see if Jameson was going to recover. After a few minutes of checking, Felina nodded her head as she sighed in relief, which led to her revealing that Jameson is going to be alright. This news gave Arnold and Alberta, to sigh in relief themselves.
The three took turns taking care of him, which led to Felina taking the time to sit down in order to process everything that's happened. She felt tears stream down her face, although she wiped them away as she grabbed of a picture of her along with Arnold and Alberta. The picture brought happy tears, though she quickly wiped them away.
After regaining her composure, she took over from Alberta as she started her turn in looking after Jameson in hope that he recovers. She spends ten minutes with him, before she gives him a kiss on the forehead as she swaps with Arnold in order for the latter to take his turn. Felina could do nothing except pray, that Jameson pulls through.
