"I figured that if I cause trouble around here, that might get the Angelus to fight me. Not only that, but also it would give me the chance to save Jenny. This is the final battle and this time, I'll accomplish this goal once and for all."
Tonight, I went to the warehouse where there could be a shipment of guns. Once inside, I saw the cops are into it in order to provide more law and order just as what the Angelus wanted. I pulled out two pistols on each hand and start shooting at the cop in front of me. They noticed me so they start shooting at me with everything they have. They use shotguns, submachine guns, and even flashbangs. I started to shoot into my way and use the Darkness arms to execute them with such blood ways.
"Guess now I know they will use that as a weakness," I said, talking to myself. I discovered that the Angelus manages to supply those men with that kind of weapon, knowing it is my weakness. As I started to win, I noticed one of the cops is about to open the light, neutralizing my power. I came near to him and cut him into two with the Darkness arms.
Suddenly, the ground in the warehouse starts to shake. As I covered my eyes, I saw a light that comes in front of me. It's the Angelus!
"I'm so mad, Jackie Estacado!" she said, yelling at me with her loud voice. "You tried to create chaos again! How could you?"
"Hey," I said in an amusing tone putting my guns beside me. "You started it. You took over my girlfriend's body and next thing before you know it, you wanted to keep this city safe, but you are a sociopath, having disregard of human lives."
The Angelus started to grit her teeth in anger. I really made her pissed, but this is just what I wanted.
"You are gonna pay for this, Jackie!" she yells in anger.
"Yeah, I thought you might say that," I replied calmly.
I pointed the two guns that I'm holding to the Angelus. I decided to make this battle more exciting by turning the guns into Darkness guns. Because it's dark, I have to dodge the Angelus since that she can use her light to render my guns useless. Now the final battle begins.
The Angelus is ready to shoot some kind of beam at me; I could say it's a light beam. Luckily, I dodge the shot and start shooting at that crazy broad. She also dodged it. Isn't that great? I managed to find a light that is sustaining her so I shut it off by shooting the light bulb. I saw the Angelus starting to get weak; guess Johnny was right about her. I grabbed her by her neck and slam her to the wall. I was so pissed at her for her job description is.
"Now, I'll tell you this only one time," I said. "Give me Jenny back."
The Angelus' face goes with a smile and laughs. Guess she doesn't take me seriously. "Tell me, Jackie. You fought me just to get her back. I'll never get her back. She belongs to me."
Just then, she started to feel pain at her head as the light around her sparks that it throws me off her. I heard her speaking "Jackie?" in Jenny's voice. Wait, does that mean? I have to be sure.
"Jenny, is that you?"
She replied, "Yes, it's me."
I wrapped my arms around her for a hug. I can't believe she has strong will to fight of the Angelus' control. Now that she's back, I can be finally together with her. I could see tears streaming down her face. I guess she knows about what the Angelus has done while she's taking over her body.
"Everything's gonna be okay, Jenny. I'm here."
"Jackie, this is why I said "I'm so sorry" to you early on. It's because I knew I was destined to become the host of the Angelus."
So that's her reason, huh? Well, if I could find some way to comfort her, I'd say, "But now you're back and that's all that matters."
"But," she said. "The only way to stop her is to kill me. That way, she can't use me as her host to hurt you. I don't want to hurt you."
This is what I call mercy kill, to end the life of an individual to give peace or end suffering. Now Jenny wants me to end her life; this is just what I feared. The truth is, if that happens, the Darkness might take her hostage again.
"But," I said, ready to explain my reason why I can't do this. "If I do that, the thing I have might take you hostage again like the last time."
"I know that," she replied. "This time, it'll be okay. I'm going to Heaven this time so that I can watch over you."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure."
As I looked at my right hand, I knew I have to make that choice. I pointed my pistol to Jenny's head, ready to end her life to save her life from the Angelus. I could feel tears are coming out of my eyes. I could already feel Jenny will die a good death.
"I love you, Jenny."
"I love you too, Jackie. I'm hoping we can see each other again when you go to Heaven."
"Yeah, I could too," I said. I pulled the trigger from my Darkness gun and the bullet hit Jenny's head. This shot just killed her, rendering for the Angelus useless to use her as a host. Just then, a sparking light just came out of the body. I could see this light is must be the Angelus looks like when she doesn't have a host.
"The both of you will pay for this!" the entity yelled at me and Jenny, and it flew away. It's over, for now.
I hold my arms to carry Jenny's body. I remembered the time Aunt Sarah told me I was like my father because he couldn't let things go. For my case, I couldn't let go of Jenny. I kept seeing visions of her like she's dead, but Aunt Sarah said that she died and I was the one who buried. And that's what I'm going to do for tomorrow.
