So much for the tour of the Demon Raptor's house. Besides, I think Twiggy's done talking with my parents. I picked up my bag and put it on my right shoulder. I walked past Tina and headed towards the door. I hear Gate stir and stopped walking. I turned around. Alice was shaking pretty bad. Gate got to his hands and knees. He sat down as he groaned from pain. It looked like I still have a fight on my hands. Gate's eyes were full of emotion again. That so called idemon/i must have possessed him and made him act mean.
"Flare, are you alright? Did I hurt you?" Gate asked.
"No. You were knocked out before a fight even started. Are you okay, Gate? How did that thing get inside of you?" I answered.
"I'm fine, but I don't know how it got inside me. I was helping an orphan one day when it changed into that creature. Next thing I know is that I was going to attack you. Alice, whatever I did to you, it wasn't me. You know that I would never hurt you. Please forgive me."
Alice stopped shaking and hugged Gate. Things were back to normal now. I can leave knowing that Alice won't be in any harm. I walked out of my old room and headed to the stairs. Zatch, Tina, and Violet seemed to have followed me. I walked down the stairs. Things are going to get really weird now that I 'm moving in with my parents. That demon is what confuses me the most. I thought demons were creatures of myth. I had no idea that they actually existed. I wonder if Zatch is a demon too.
"I am a demon, Flare. I'm just a demon that actually values honor. I'm from a powerful clan called the Nightroads. I can read minds, just so you know," Zatch said to me.
That means that Tina is half demon, unless her mother is a demon too. I can tell that her mother was a hedgehog, like my father is. That's one thing we have in common," I stated.
"You're pretty smart, Flare. Tina is half demon and half hedgehog. Her mother would have been half angel if her grandmother had her powers at the time. What grade are you in?"
"I'm in the eleventh grade. I skipped sixth grade since I was so smart. I read a lot of books."
Change my attempt good intentions
Crouched over
You were not there
Living in fear
But signs were not really that scarce
Obvion tears
But I will not
Hide you through this
I want you to help them, please see
The bleeding heart perched on my shirt
Die, withdraw
Hide in cold sweat
Quivering lips
Ignore remorse
Naming a kid, living wasteland
This time you've tried
All that you can turning you red
Change my attempt good intentions
Should I, could I
Here we are with your obsession
Should I, could I
Crowned hopeless
The article read living wasteland
This time you've tried
All that you can turning you red
But I will not
Hide you through this
I want you to help
Change my attempts good intentions
Should I, could I
Here we are with your obsession
Should I, could I
Heave the silver hollow silver
Piercing through another victim
Turn and tremble be judgmental
Ignorant to all the symbols
Blind the face with beauty paste
Eventually you'll one day know
Change my attempts good intentions
Limbs tied, skin tight
Self inflicted his perdition
Change my attempts good intentions
Should I, could I
"Dad, you're very random," Tina said.
"I know," Zatch confessed.
Tina's right about one thing. That song was totally random. We all reached the bottom of the stairs and went to the living room. Mom and Dad already had my school records in their hands. They were just talking with Twiggy now. Some of the other Demon Raptors were there to say good-bye. I'm not much of a person to do long good-byes. My father looked at Zatch with a curious look. My mother didn't seem to notice Zatch and Tina.
"Zatch, what are you and Tina doing here?" my father asked.
"Demon business with Tina. One of the Demon Raptors was possessed by a demon. Tia and I removed the demon. What are you doing here, Silver? Did something happen to have you two here?" Zatch answered.
We're here because of Flare. He's moving in with us now. Don't you remember that he was kidnapped when he was a baby?"
"This is the same Flare from back then?!"
"Yeah."
"Oh. I knew his name was Flare, but I didn't know he belonged to you."
"Dad, stop lying. You knew that he was Silver and Blaze's son. Honestly, you need to stop pretending that you're dumb. You're just impossible to work with sometimes," Tina said.
I rolled my eyes at Zatch and my father. They can argue when we get home. I want to get out of here before I change my mind about leaving here. I have lived here all my life. This is kind of hard for me. My mother and father finished talking and headed to the front door. I followed them with Violet, Tina, and Zatch. I waved good-bye to the Demon Raptors as I exited the building. My life has changed forever. I lead everyone through the ally. I can guess that Kyle will have his Demon Raptors' mark cut off his arm. That looked like it hurt when I first saw it when I was about eleven years old.
When we left the ally, I was starting to have second thoughts about moving out of the Demon Raptors' hide out. I lived there all my life. It's where I grew up, but I need to live with my parents. I want to get to know everyone there at the mansion. Plus, my littler sister will need me during the school year in case any guy gets it in his head that he could harm her. Twiggy did say that I had permission to visit the Demon Raptors. I hope that my mother and father will give me the same permission. Then again, I need the permission from Mura too.
"Hey, Mom. Dad. I have a question," I said.
"What is it, Flare?" my mother asked.
Will I be able to visit the demon Raptors, even though I live with you? Twiggy gave me permission to visit them anytime. I know that I need your permission, as well as Mura's permission. Please?"
Zatch, Tina, Violet, my parents, and I reached the forest that leads to Team Heroes' mansion. I could hear my parents talking among themselves about it. They probably won't let me go visit because of Kyle being the one that kidnapped me. My heart pounded with fear. I want to be able to visit them. They took care of me while I was with them. We all reached the mansion and went inside. Mom and Dad walked into the kitchen. I headed towards the stairs. Mura won't let me visit them. She doesn't like the demon Raptors that much. I started heading up the stairs. I'll never see my child hood friends again.
"Flare, hold up a moment. Your father and I walked with Mura about going to visit the demon Raptors. We've decided that it would be best to let you visit them. They did take care of you after all," my mother said.
"And there's one more thing," Mura added.
I turned to face my parents and the purple hedgehog. Mura walked up to me and placed her right hand over my demon Raptor's tattoo on my left arm. I blinked out of confusion. What is she doing? Mura just smiled at me as my tattoo began to glow. I watched as the letters changed from DR to TH, which stands for Team Heroes. So that's what she was doing. She was just altering the letter on my tattoo to symbolize that I'm now a part of Team Heroes. Mura removes her hand once the tattoo stopped glowing. I looked at her.
"That way people will know where you belong. I'm going to talk to Twiggy now since he wants to see me about something. I trust you enough to visit the Demon Raptors, but you must remember where you stand. You don't work for them anymore. Just keep that in mind. Oh and by the way, you will start school in two months. You'll be going to public school with your sister and Tina," Mura said.
"Okay. I've always wanted to go to public school," I said.
"Here's the most important rule about going to public school. You don't fight unless you need to. Don't ever use your powers unless it is a life or death situation. There's a copy of the house rules in your room, along with plenty of book selves. I guarantee that you'll love it here. Your room is next to Violet's room."
I just nodded at Mura. I followed Violet up the stairs and to the left. There were rooms on both sides of the hall. I guess that a lot of people must live here. Some of the doors had two names on them. Those must be people who are married. That's pretty smart. Violet stopped at a door that my name on the door. I opened the door and walked in. The room was painted silver, with dark purple in certain places. It had a television, the latest game system, and many book selves. I walked over to my bed and set my bag on it. I opened it.
Using my psychokinesis, I started putting my books on the shelves. Thank the lord that I have powers. It didn't take long to unpack since all I did was take them out of the bag and placed them on the selves. I noticed that I had three selves still empty. Those must be for books that I'm going to get in the future. Well, Mura has out done herself. She must have known that I love to read a lot. I put my bag away in the closet. I lied down on the bed. It felt soft like a cloud. I feel like I'm in heaven now. I can finally get to know my family and their friends. I know where I belong now.
