"So what is it now, Cyndi, are you going to surrender? Or are you going to leave this pitiful human, defenseless?"

"D-Do we honestly have to do this in the middle of the sidewalk, where I look insane?"

The demon male scoffed and with a flick of his wrists, the three teleported to a deserted forest area, location - unknown. She figured that they had gone to the demon world, but...

WAIT, PAUL!

Akemi looked to her side to see that Paul was still there, but she had to be careful, the knife was still against her neck.

"I made it so your puny, human lover could see us. He is your lover, right, Cyndi...?"

"W-Who the...W-What the? Akemi..?" From the corner of her eye, she could see Paul having a mini-spazz attack. His face, it was so...

"Q-Quit being a puss and just back up, Paul," She hissed and he did as he was told, quickly.

"So, Cyndi? What're you going to do now..?"

Akemi felt a bit of inner turmoil go on. Her chest began to hurt. She reached up quickly, grabbing the male by the wrist and pushing him away, before she jumped back and put her fists up like she was ready, "I don't know who this Cyndi character is, but I'm telling you now, you aren't going to kill me..."

"Really now, Akemi? You don't know of the evil bitch living inside of you?"

More turmoil. Sudden anger welled up inside of her, but suddenly, she wasn't feeling quite like herself. She felt a little...

funny.

"Don't call me a FUCKING bitch."

And that's when it happened. Akemi wasn't Akemi anymore. Her eyes were an ice-blue, almost white. And her hair, was a little bit longer. A beauty mark rested on her cheek, and she was pale as ice. Her hair, curly and untamed, but beautiful nonetheless, and a crecent moon shape rested on her shoulder.

Cyndi Mayweather had made her escape.

The blonde demon began to laugh, the coldness of it all sending shivers down her spine.

"W-What happened to Akemi?" Paul would ask, flabbergasted. Of course, he was a bit far away, watching all of this, confused as ever. The girl would turn and give Paul the coldest stare he'd probably ever recieve, "I took a liking to you, but now that I think about it, you're just a giant pussy. Shut up, you damn brit!"

And Paul shut up, like he was told. His eyebrows furrowed inward. He wasn't too sure if liked this Cyndi character very much...

"I'll call you what I want. You're coming with me."

"You better watch it, you fuckin...Do you know who I am?"

"Cyndi Mayweather, 57821."

She took a few steps back, and with a flick of her wrist, she was holding on to her own weapon. A strawberry? It served purpose. She tossed the small fruit at the blonde male, and it exploded, letting out a sweet, but posionous gas, that made him tear up. She backflipped, threw a few more of the fruits, and then returned to Paul's side.

"Cover your mouth."

Paul, with no arguments, covered his mouth and soon, with another flick of her wrist, they were away, back to Paul's house, in his living room, to be exact.

"So, your name is Cyndi?"

"Yes."

"And...you live in 'Kemi?"

"Mhm."

"And you don't enjoy me very much?"

"You're such a girl, Paul. I mean, lookit those eyebrows..."

Cyndi was sitting on the floor, outstretched with her legs spread, and Paul was sitting on his piano stool, trying to gather all of this, "And you appear when you feel Akemi's in danger, correct?"

"Yep." Cyndi replied, simply. She stood, and Paul's gaze wandered a little bit, noticing that...

...Cyndi's breasts were a bit bigger than Akemi's. His face heated up and she noticed, her eye twitching.

"You're sick!"

"Nonono! I'm not sick!"

"You are!"

This arguing went on for several minutes, until Paul grew tired, and just gave up, "When will Akemi come back?"

"Soon. She's sleeping."

Soon...? Paul sighed and then got up from his stool, and headed up the stairs. Cyndi soon followed after him, knowing that was all confused. "I'm sorry, Paul..iee...?" Cyndi tried to mock Akemi's voice and pretty much failed.

"It's awright, I...I'm just worried about 'huh, you know?"

"Yeah, I know. Don't worry, I've got this under control..."

"You better, I don't want Akemi getting hurt anymore. This job of hers already causes her enough pain..." It was obvious that the male was quite worried. It was hinted in his voice. The raven-haired demon just shook her head, and once they were in his room, she held onto his hands, her tiny, cold ones grasping onto his large warm ones. She tried to give off a weak smile,

"Cheer up, things will be all better once the demons get warded off again. I'll reside somewhere el-"

She cut herself off, her eyebrows furrowing.

"Where else can you live BUT inside Akemi?"

"...If I leave her, she dies."

"Then you're staying put."

He pulled his hands away from hers and sat on his bed, frustrated. "..I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize," He said, sternly. This made Cyndi shut up for the first time since she arrived. She took a seat on the bed next to him and just patted his shoulder. He shrugged her off of him, and she felt a little hurt,

"You're going to have to get used to me."

"I don't want Akemi to be like you in any way..."

"That temper she has, that's me. All the strength and courage that she has, that's me. Without me, she's not Akemi. And without Akemi, I'm not myself. Soon we'll be one, fully. She'll be aware of me completely. Maybe George does understand a bit better than you..."

This caught Paul's attention. His eyebrows rose in frustration, "W-What..?"

AN: This chapter was hard.
