Ana grunt as she avoid a well placed kick from a demon with too many horns. It was ugly too, a vomit green colour with blue spots scattered around its bare chest. It had three horns on its head, all different sizes and lengths.

"Ow, you bint" She can hear Spike growl at his demon who got in a pretty good hit.

She'd be lying if she said that the two didn't go looking for a fight. They did, and they often do. It was kind of their favorite past time, fighting things. An advantage with their shared passion for a good fight was that she couldn't feel any sort of pain from their victims. The more opponents the better was their unofficial motto, the official one was much more in Ana's very humble opinion badass.

Falling to the hardwood floor she release a exhilarated breath with a large grin on her face. She hop to her feet and spin around to face her last demon. Ana bring her fists up and rush headfirst into the demon and bring the two to the floor with her on top. She place herself so that the demon can't kick her off himself and start dropping hard punches on its face. It frantically struggle to get away from her blows but she doesn't give up. Punch after punch, groan after groan, there was no stopping the elf when she gave in to her bloodlust.

"Kill him" The voice tells her. "Kill him, kill him" It repeats with vigor.

"Go away" She growl out distracted and the demon below her take advantage of her loss of focus and buck her off.

"Nice work there hunny, can't even keep him on the floor" The voice sneer and she can picture the familiar facial expression.

"Shut up! You're not here" She deny and land a blow on the demon in front of her.

"And yet you speak to me"

Shaking her head a few times the voice disappears and her full focus return to the demon in front of her. With adrenaline rushing through her veins she grabbed a nearby chair and smashed it over the demon's head. "Oops, my hand slipped" She giggle.

The demon roar and rush at her with full speed and she side-step just before it reach her and the thundering beast fall to the ground with a loud thud. With a battle cry she fall down on the disorientated demon and she pull one of her knives from its holder and stab the demon in the chest, barely missing the heart. "You have to forgive me if I miss the heart the first couple of times, I'm high on adrenaline"

"Why are you doing this?" The demon growl in pain.

"It seems you people respond best to displays of violence" She grin at the demon and stab it straight through the heart.

"What's up with you?" Spike ask casting her a weird look as Ana was staring gobsmacked at nothing.

"Hello?" He asked irritated, he knock on her head three times. "Anybody home?"

Ana doesn't even seem to see him. staring at the wall in a trance with a look full of horror on her face.

"Leave me alone" She beg someone he can't see.

"Who" He demand, beginning to worry.

"Why are you doing this?" The young elf curl into a small ball. The girl was for the first time seeing the man haunting her and it was exactly who she thought it was.

The man walk forward, his black suit was as always perfect and his yellow tie in place, not a single red curl out of place. The red boots clink on the hardwood floor as he walk closer to her.

"God, I'd give anything for a drink... I'd give my god-damned soul for a glass of beer!" Julius exclaim with a longing look on his face.

"Leave me alone" Ana repeat her mantra over and over again as if she expected it to banish him from her head.

"You still don't understand" He let out a frustrated chuckle. "You can't beg me to go away, I'm in your head. If your head was a computer then say hello to the virus"

"Go away" She growl at Julius and he backs away with his hands up.

"Alright, alright. Calm down" He grin. "You know he can't see me. Just imagine what he's thinking. God, it gets my blood rushing" He gesture to where said blood was flowing.

"In the end we must face our demons alone" She tell him with a disgusted look on her face. "But you don't mean enough to me to be one of my demons"

Julius shrug and disappear and she could suddenly feel the hand roughly shaking her shoulder.

"Hey Ana" Spike call for what must be the 20th time.

"Hmm, yeah" She respond and he let out a sigh of relief.

"What was that?" He ask with a serious look on his face. "Getting all spaced out and rambling about demons"

"Nothing" She brush him off and with his help stand up again, albeit on shaky legs. Whatever she had seen had shaken her up.

"I may be old but that was not nothing" He press.

"I said it was nothing" She repeat with a hard look on her face.

"Have it your way then, I'll be here when you decide to talk" He click the k and then leave her side.

She stare at his retreating back with a sad look on her face and a small tear running down her cheek, she wanted to tell him. She really did but she couldn't, not yet anyways.

"You really messed up, darling" Julius appear at her side again with a happy smile on his face.

"Why are you doing this?" She ask suddenly feeling very tired.

"I have made it my cause that you never know a moment of happiness" He look down on her with a tiny bit of hate swirling around in his empty gaze.

"Why?" Ana ask him with a tired glare.

"I've been dead for 20 years, call it boredom" He shrug. "A lot of demons have been dying since you started hanging out with mr Bleach" Julius remark

"That's what demons do!" Ana yell, her voice getting higher with each word.

AN: Going to wrap it up there, hope you enjoyed this chapter! I love hearing from you all so please leave a comment, always in need of feedback:) I swear I am not making this author's note longer because I want the story to have ten thousand words. 100% untrue. The weather is kind of nice (it's really not), I like it when it rains because then I can use my umbrella and I love walking with my umbrella in the rain. Just six more words to go.
