Chapter 6 – Possession
x.X.x
Alister drove down the road, he knew where the bald guy was last, and he was sure he would've have gotten to far, and neither could Amy, she didn't walk that fast.
He reached the area a couple of minutes later, he stopped and looked around but the bald guy was nowhere to be found, Alister scowled. "Ugh… Maybe he ran…" Alister said aloud and then heard someone speak.
"Hi.. Alister, what are you doing back here?" He heard her ask, and his heart immediately froze, but he didn't turn around, he needed to do what Dartz told him, he didn't have a choice.
"Searching for the bald guy." Alister said and he heard her walk up to him. "I thought he was gone." She said, and Alister nodded, he was gone, his man-eater bug rid him of both his body and soul, but when Dartz released the one part, the other part came back as well, which would be his body.
"Yes… but he was set free." Alister said and heard Amy laugh, and he sensed a small tinge of evil in her voice, and this made him turn around immediately and he gasped at what he saw.
"What happened to you?" He asked shocked as he looked at her.
She looked down on herself. "Nothing…" She said in a low hiss, that told him to back of, her voice even sound different.
Alister growled, he had no idea what happened to her, but he was going to find out. "Where did the blood come from?" He asked again, a lot more demanding than before.
Her purple clothes were ripped and covered in blood, but it didn't seem to be her own, and that is what Alister found odd, and she seemed different.
"The blood? Oh… from nowhere." She said as she smiled and Alister walked towards her, looking angry. "Don't play games with me." He warned, if she was going to be unfriendly, so would he.
She smiled at him, an evil smile, and then walked towards him as well. "Who said this was a game?" She asked and Alister growled, his eyes narrowing through the glasses.
"Stop this now and tell me what is going on." He said, his voice low and dangerous, but she just smiled. "Wouldn't you like to know." She said, and Alister saw her eyes now, it was dull, not the bright purple he once saw, it looked dead.
Alister was now in front of her and grabbed her by her shoulders. "Tell me!" He hissed and she just smiled and then he shook her. "Tell me now!" He yelled, he could see something was wrong, he could see this was not her, and he was worried for some reason and wanted to know the truth.
She shook her head. "Nothing is wrong, I am fine." She said, her eyes narrowed a bit as he shook her again. "And don't do that again." She warned and Alister had never feared anyone or anything, he would not start now, he neither listened to anyone, only to Dartz.
"Listen, don't play tough with me, you WILL tell me what's going on." He said as he pressed her shoulders, as a warning to say he can do a lot worse if he wanted to.
She didn't look intimidated, she didn't even look scared. "You'll have to kill me first." She said and Alister growled. "I will if you don't tell me what's going on." He said and she smirked. "Really? But if you kill me, you won't get an answer, now will you?" She asked and Alister growled and then let her go.
"Fine… I will play nice… Tell me what's going on… before I bash your skull in." He said in a semi-sweet voice and she laughed. "You call that nice?" She asked while still laughing and Alister couldn't take it anymore, his anger was boiling over, but then he thought of something and calmed down.
"I know how to make you talk." He said without emotion and she seemed amused. "Go ahead, make me talk." She said and within a second Alister had grabbed her and took something out of her jacket pocket, it was the Barbie doll.
"Tell me or this thing is going to have an early visit to heaven." He said as he held the doll tightly in his one hand.
He looked at her face and she was still smiling. "You think I care about that stupid toy?" She asked and Alister gasped, something was seriously wrong with her, she nearly hugged the life out of the doll when he gave it to her first, but now she didn't care about it, he had no idea how all this could happen in less than a hour, but it made him angry, so angry.
"I have no idea who you are, but you're not Amy." He spat out as he put the doll in his picket and he saw her smile now. "Bingo, guess you're not an complete idiot." She said and Alister growled again, his anger rising to a dangerous level.
"Where is she!" He yelled as he grabbed her by her collar and the imposter smiled. "Right here." He said as she pointed to herself and Alister didn't understand. "What do you mean!" Alister yelled as he dropped her to the ground, staring at her angrily, he was thinking that it might be the same as Yugi, a separate being living inside of her, except she didn't have a millennium item, so it couldn't be that.
"I mean…" She stopped in mid-sentence and Alister saw her eyes go normal, all the evil vanish from it and she looked around and then at Alister. "Where am I?" She asked and Alister recognized this voice to be the real Amy's, he was about to go to talk to her when he saw the evil return to her eyes.
"See what I mean?" she asked, the evil voice back, but Alister didn't understand. "NO! EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!" He yelled, his anger returning, he saw the scared look on Amy's face, how confused she looked, and it infuriated him.
"I mean I am in possession of her, don't you remember me?" She asked and Alister growled. "NO!" He yelled and she smiled. "Really? You killed me." She said and Alister still didn't understand, he hadn't killed anyone, not as far as he knew, he only took people's souls.
"A name would help." Alister hissed and she smiled. "I'm bald." She said and with that Alister gasped, it was the bald guy, he thought he would go back into his own body, but he guess he was wrong, his body never appeared, Dartz obviously didn't go through the right procedure to release his soul, so he was left a wandering soul and went into the closet living being, which happened to be Amy.
"Okay… but where did the blood come from?" Alister asked, trying to suppress the need to bash the bald guy into pieces, but if he did, he would be killing Amy, not the bald guy.
"Oh… I was so excited to back, even if it was in the girls body who ruined me… that I had some fun." He said and Alister knew what that meant, he killed someone or got into a fight, and the worst part would be, it would be framed on Amy if they figured out who did it.
"But it was still your fault that I was destroyed, you did it." He hissed at Alister and Alister growled. "You are a complete pathetic idiot, what makes you think I can't evict you from her body?" Alister asked, now smiling, he could, well if he got the help of Dartz he could… And he would.
He laughed. "You really think I'd allow you to kill me twice?" He asked and Alister smiled as he lifted his cell phone and dialed in Dartz number and looked at Amy, well the imposter inside her.
"It's Alister, I need to ask a favor." Alister said as he said, still keeping his eyes firmly on Amy. "Oh, so you're gonna get a priest or something?" He asked as he laughed, and Alister couldn't stand to see Amy laughed, while it was that man.
Alister growled at the bald guy. "Yes master, I need you to evict a lost soul from someone's body." Alister said and he smiled. "OH, so you have a master?" He mocked and Alister growled. "Thanks, see you soon." Alister said and hung up.
"Yes, and you'll soon meet him." Alister said and then moments later he saw Dartz walk from the alley, he had no idea how he did it, but he was always close by for some reason, Alister didn't under a lot of stuff about Dartz, but he didn't care about it either.
"So Alister, is this the person?" Dartz asked as he stared at Amy and Alister nodded. "Yes, you know that bald headed guy you released, well he went into her body." Alister said and Dartz now looked at Alister.
"I don't see why I should evict him, incase you're planning to dual this girl to take her soul of course." Dartz said and Alister didn't know what to say. "Yes, probably." Alister said and Dartz nodded and then walked towards Amy.
"So you think it is fun to possess other people?" Dartz asked and Amy smiled. "Yes you husky." He said, referring to Dartz eyes, which were two colors, like huskies.
"What is your name?" Dartz asked as he stopped in front of Amy and she smiled. "Pipit." He said and Alister let out a laugh at the funny name and Pipit glared at Alister.
"Okay Mr. Pipit, there are 2 ways we can do this…" Dartz said as he pulled out a dagger from his white suit, it had the Hebrew signs on it, that read 'life devourer'.
"You can leave this body or I can take both souls into this dagger." Dartz said and Alister gasped at that sentence, he didn't know why he cared about Amy, well he at least thought he cared about her in a small way.
"So which will it be?" Dartz asked as he neared the dagger to Amy, it's blade beginning to glow dangerously, as it was nearing it's target, the blade fed of souls, taking them and storing them, with each soul the blade got stronger, well more dangerous and in the end he would use it with his great beast.
Pipit smiled. "If I'm going down, which I don't believe I am, I will take this bitch with me." He said and Dartz smiled.
"Very well, then both of you shall fall into the depths of darkness, serving in my cause, against your will…" Dartz said as he raised the dagger, ready to plunge it into Amy's heart.
Alister gasped and everything went slow motion from the moment he raised the dagger and thoughts started to run through Alister's head.
'Do I want her to die this way?'
'If I don't, how will I stop him?'
'Even if I stop him, how will I get that freak out of her body?'
'If I got him out, what will I tell her, will I take her soul?'
All these thoughts started to go through his head and before he could think of anything else he ran towards Amy, and pushed her down on the ground, making that Dartz missed his blow.
He heard Dartz growl as he kept Amy pinned to the ground. "What did you do that for! Explain yourself Alister!" Dartz yelled and Alister looked up at his angry face.
"I want to dual her and take her soul, I don't want you to do it, just evict Pipit from her body, I know you can." Alister said, vigor could be detected in his voice.
Dartz growled. "Very well, but I don't see her face on my gallery of souls you'll have to answer to me." Dartz said and Alister nodded.
Dartz walked to the struggling Amy and pulled out some sort of staff and pointed it to her and then a streaming white light came out of Amy and went into the staff.
"It's done." Dartz said and Alister was confused, but decided he'd rather not ask what he just did. "Okay." Alister said, not trying to sound over-excited, even if he was.
Dartz looked down at Alister, who was holding her down on the ground, even if she was unconscious. "She should wake up in a couple of hours, then you take her soul, is that clear?" Dartz asked and Alister nodded hesitantly.
"Yes Master Dartz." Alister said and Dartz smiled and then somehow disappeared, Alister looked on in amazement. "I've got to ask him how he does that." He whispered and then looked down at Amy.
"But first… I got to figure out… Do I take your soul like he requested, or do I ignore him, which is a foolish thing…" Alister said as he picked her up, he wouldn't leave her on the street.
He walked with her to his bike, but then realized it would be impossible to take her with him, she would surely fall of the bike, he could carry her to his house, but then he was almost sure his bike would get stolen.
Alister growled as he knew the only thing he could do was hang around until she woke up. "I can't believe I am doing this for you." He said, he didn't even know why he was doing it, but he knew he wouldn't be able to live with the guild if she got hurt because he left her here.
"I can't believe you're making me feel guilt." Alister said half disgusted with himself, he had always been a loner, and he thought he would be forever, but now that she came along, this stupid female he had known for less that 2 hours, and he already felt an attachment to her.
"How dumb am I? Feeling friendship for someone who had the same past as me, I am stupid." He hissed to himself, but even his little speech couldn't convince him to leave her here alone.
Alister growled as he looked down at her and then walked to the wall of a building and slid down it, as he still held her in his arms. "I need to have my mind read… " he said as he gently put her down next to him.

Alister was busy falling asleep, but he couldn't fall asleep here, he had tried to wake her up several times, but she refused.
"I am going to try this one more time then I'm going to throw you into cold water." Alister hissed as he pushed her. "Wake up!" He yelled and she moaned. "Go away…" She said in a sleepy voice and Alister growled, he at least got her to say something.
"Listen here you…" Alister was about to say something rude, but then decided against it. "Wake up." He said and then looked at his pocket and took out the doll.
"I have your lovely little doll with me, wake up or it is shark bait." Alister warned and he saw her eyes jerk open and she suddenly jumped him, he had never seen anyone wake up so fast, she had him pushed down on the ground, and he was too shocked to do anything about it.
"Where is it? If you touch that doll I am will kill you!" She yelled and Alister was now processing everything and smiled as he sat up, even if she tried to keep him down.
"Glad to see you're awake." Alister said as he gave the doll to her and she held it tightly.
"What are you doing here? Where am I? What happened?" She asked, looking extremely confused now that she was taking her surroundings in, good thing she hadn't noticed the blood on her clothes yet.
"Let me see… I was riding down the road and stopped for a moment, I heard you and turned around, you were different, I found out you were possessed, it's over now, so forget about it and no more questions." He said sternly and she looked at him oddly.
"But why are you still around?" She asked as she now put the doll away again and Alister yawned as he stood up. "I waited for you to wake up, but I will be going now." He said as he walked to his bike, he wanted to be gone before she saw the blood, he didn't want to be around when she saw that.
"Bye." Alister said and took off before she could say anything else.
Amy looked as he go. "That was weird…" She said to herself and began walking home, she didn't even notice the blood on her clothes…
