Chapter 4: Krystal

Knock

Chiro lightly tapped on Antauri's door.

"Oh well, no one's home" he hastily turned to walk away.

"Chiro" Gibson said accusingly.

"Do we have to?" he whined.

"Yes" he answered flatly

"Why?"

"The blood has his DNA in it" Gibson replied.

"Maybe he stepped on it" Chiro said making up an excuse.

"No"

The door whooshed open and Gibson walked in. No one was there.

Antauri had somehow managed to slip out of the Super Robot unnoticed…again.

He strolled down a familiar street. As he passed an old building, a figure stepped out of the shadows behind him.

"Hello, Antauri"

He stopped dead in his tracks.

"Krystal" he hissed her name "It was you. You're the one who cursed me."

"Correct"

"Why?"

"Because, you fool, I don't like you," she answered. "In fact, I hate you"

"If you hate me so much, why don't you just kill me now?" Antauri glared at her.

"Ha, you'd like that wouldn't you? No, I don't want to kill you. I'd rather you suffer."

"You've always had a sick mind, Krystal"

"Not as sick as you're going to be"

He didn't really want to know what she meant by that.

Antauri hadn't seen Krystal in a few years. She was rumored to have died in a fire along with her family, but Antauri didn't believe it. She isn't one to go down easily. Krystal was sixteen; she had dark brown hair, about to her shoulders, fair skin, and grey eyes. She wore a red T-shirt, a black scarf, navy blue jeans, and black sneakers.

"I've been watching you Antauri, and I have to say I am quite impressed. You make a better demon than I thought you would." She gave a wicked smile "You have no idea what you did last night correct?"

"Correct"

"And do you have any idea as to why you were vomiting blood this morning?"

"No"

"Then allow me to tell you what happened. As you might have guessed, the demon took over. You snuck out when your teammates were asleep. You saw a teenage boy a few years older than me and you wanted his flesh and blood so badly. You hid in the alley and when he passed by, you dug your claws into his leg and dragged him in the shadows. You clawed him to death and sunk your teeth in his skin."

Antauri gulped.

"That's right, and you loved every second of it" she grinned.

He had never once thought that he might have killed and eaten someone. He remained silent, letting everything she'd just said sink in.

"You're lucky you're not aware of what happens," she said examining her nails. "You know, this curse is just going to get worse for you. Who knows, you might even die. Like I said, I want you to suffer." She could tell she was getting to him. There was a brief silence.

"I used to think there was some good in you but I was so wrong. You really are heartless" Antauri spoke calmly and quietly. He turned away from her.

Krystal merely shrugged.

He started walking away.

"A few words of advise, expect the worst" she said.

"I wouldn't expect any thing less from you"

She watched him leave. After a few seconds she turned and walked the other way.

Antauri returned to the Super Robot but no one knew he was there. He leaned against the robot's antennae and watched the sunset. It was beautiful, but at the same time it meant he'd have to go through all the pain and killing all over again. At least now he knew what to expect. The sun had set and night had fallen over Shuggazoom. It was almost time. He waited patiently for the torment to come, to turn into a bloodthirsty demon, and to wake up not remembering a thing. This time was different, however. It struck without warning. Antauri collapsed. His limbs gave out, followed by the rest of him. Everything just stopped working. A mind numbing pain coursed through his body. He felt like he was dying, like someone struck a dagger through his heart. He lay there motionless and closed his eyes. Eventually, his heart stopped beating.

Krystal had been watching him the whole time

"You're not dead yet, my friend, I'm still not done with you."

Note: Krystal really hates him, but I'm still working on the 'why' part. Notice that she is very cocky. The ending doesn't make a whole lot of sense but it should in the next chapter. Well, please review.
