A/N: This is brought to you today through my stressfulness and frustration! it was all total bullshit right at the point of writing this in the middle... I am sorry for seeming a bit rude... please don't forget to read and review. Thanks for taking the time to read this god awful author note. On with chapter 4!
...Demons Awaken...
Everything feels different, as I allow the presence take over me. My entire body feels as if though it were set on fire. Immense heat covers me from head to toe; burning me from the inside. The urge to cry out in pain is unbearable, yet there is something keeping me from screaming and thrashing out on the floor, begging for it to stop.
Not only does the pain seem different, but the view of things on the outside. The demons seem to be foggy and hazy; out of their forms...The trees seem blurred and out of place as well. The grass looks oddly black and dimmed.
Why does everything look so different? Why did everything change? Do you have anything to do with this? I ask the presence.
'I'm glad you've noticed. Well, the reason you see your world like this is because you're seeing it through my eyes when I'm inside of your mind. Although, your human eyes see the world differently through there than mine. To me, everything is seen clearer. I have enhanced eyesight and other qualities that you lack. You also have qualities that I lack as well' it replies, still communicating through my mind.
How are we able to communicate like this anyways?
'Ugh! I already told you I'd let you know AFTER we're done here. Now, didn't I?' It hisses at me.
I growl in response and mutter Yes, you did.
It smirks in response. 'Good. Now, let me get rid of these bastards so we can finally go home. They are irritably annoying. I can't believe you were nearly killed by these fools. They practically have no brains. They are pathetic and a disgrace to all demons.'
I chuckle at that little comments and watch as the show unfolds before my eyes.
Everything becomes blurry as I feel myself run towards the demons with unbelievable speed. This strikes the demons off guard as well. They look at me frightened and unable to move as I strike them with Phoenix.
The demons stare at me dumbfounded and unable to move, as I slash at them with Phoenix. They soon recover from their entranced state and begin to counter attack; sending blows from every direction with their claws and scythe like limbs.
Five Garcelios stab into me with their claws, sending their poison inside of me. Feeling the poison inside makes me flinch as it burns inside of me, making my blood boil and nearly making me topple over and fall to the floor screaming in pain. I become dizzy for a short time, but quickly recover by forcing the poison out from my system before it does more damage.
I force the poisoned blood out from my body by cutting the wounds deeper, making me wince in pain by doing such a thing. After a few seconds of losing a dangerous amount of blood, my enhanced healing abilities to kick in and patch up the wound in no time, making my wounds disappear in a matter of seconds.
I smirk as I notice the confused expressions showed on the demons faces. "What? You didn't know I could heal as fast as you ugly bastards?" The voice, controlling my body, asks feeling smug and confident.
This agitates them and they lunge themselves at me from all directions. I quickly dodge their attempt, running towards the farthest end of the clearing. I stop abruptly and turn around and start firing at them with Inferno. The bullets come out at high speeds that I'm left looking at them while the fire out and hit every demon without a single miss.
The demons screech and howl in pain as the bullets pierce through their skin. Every demon that came in contact with the bullets is now instantly dropped to the floor and is bleeding to their undeniable and utterly violent death. Some of the other demons watch as their comrades fall and die before coming straight at me with their full out attacks. I smirk and wait patiently before unleashing a powerful attack with Phoenix.
I slash at the air, leaving a trail of blue flames, and ready myself for another round, as the Screechers come towards me and try to deafen me. I quickly move out of the way, trying to avoid being hit with the attack and jump in the air. I continue by revving up Phoenix one more time, before slashing at the Screechers.
I attack the one closest to me and manage to slice off one of its wings, making it fall rapidly towards the floor. Before it hits the ground, I land on top of it and use it as a spring to make myself jump higher and gain more distance from the demons. Hearing the demons come after me from behind, I quickly turn around and shoot at them with Inferno. One of the Screechers is right under me, I take this chance to jump straight up from its head and shoot at it while rising higher and higher.
The demon screeches in pain as the bullets penetrate its skin, leaving gushes of blood spewing out from the wounds, before the corpse turns into dust and the soul leaving this world and going back to Hell.
I feel myself smirk at the sight of the foul monster finally leaving this world, making a count of how many more need to be kill before heading back.. "Humph.. That's ten down... only fifteen to go. In case you didn't know."
Gee... Thanks for the math lesson... As if I really needed it. I mutter
"You're welcome" The voice says back in an annoyed tone. "Now let's wrap this up. Shall we?"
Alright… I reply while feeling a bit bored.
"Awe... What's wrong? You bored?" It teases me
What do you think? I rhetorically ask it annoyed expression clear in my words.
"Now you know how I feel when you don't let me have fun" it says while smirking and firing at the rest of the demons with Inferno. "There, I'm done. You can take over from here and we can finally go ho-"
A loud roar interrupts the conversation, leaving both of us stunned and unable to move for a few brief seconds. I quickly turn around and fire with inferno on last time and chuckle.
Looks like you missed one. I tease.
"So it seems." Is all it says while the demon continues to screech "Oh shut up already! You ugly bastard!" It shoots at the howling demon a few more times with Inferno before turning around and walking back home.
"Shit! What the hell happened to you, Lydia?" Andre gasps as I enter the cabin.
"Do I really look that bad?" I ask a bit shocked, while walking towards the downstairs bathroom that's located to the right side of the cabin.
I pass the broken glass table, the glass pieces still on the floor.
'Hmm... Looks like somebody decided not to clean up' the voice inside me jeers.
You still have to explain things, you know
'I know. Just get cleaned up. I don't think our mate liked the grand entrance we just made right now'
You think I say sarcastically.
I walk into the bathroom and turn on the light that is on the right hand side, right next to the entrance. The light flickers a few times before fully illuminating the bathroom the sink is to the left along with the shower. I walk towards the sink mirror feeling a bit nervous. Why would he react like that? Do I really look that awful?
With a sigh, I turn towards the mirror and carefully examine the marks and scars that the demons had left on me. Trails of blood, both mine and the demons, cover most of my face and clothes. I groan at the sight of myself in the mirror. my clothes are nearly torn to shreds, and covered in blood. my silver white hair also being covered in blood.
"I'm definitely going to need another shower... damn demons..." I mutter in annoyance
I hear someone chuckle and turn around to where the sound had come from. To my surprise, Dustin leans against the doorway and looks at me with an amused expression.
"You really got yourself into deep trouble this time. Now didn't you Lydia." He smirks and walks over to me cautiously. "I heard Andre and decided to check up on you. How'd it go with those demons? did you kill them all?" He asks while looking into my eyes.
"Of course I did." I smirk, and all of a sudden, I feel the presence of that voice again.
'You mean I did. You didn't do much. Last thing I remember, I was the one doing all of the killing.'
Oh shut up. He doesn't need to know that.
'Or does he?' it chuckles and instantly vanishes
"Good to hear." He smiles at me and turns around to leave me alone in the bathroom. He is just about to turn towards the living room before turning back to face me once again. "Oh! One more thing before I forget... I don't know whether Andre wants me to tell you this or not, but...tomorrow is going to be your first day in school." he grins before finally leaving me there wide eyed and shocked.
There is no way I'm going to school. Absolutely no way in hell I'm going! They have got to be crazy if they think I'm going. After a while of just standing there full of shocked emotions running through me, I decide to take a quick shower, and take all of the demon blood off of me. While doing so, I think about what new tortures await me the next day. What kind of people I'll meet and most importantly, if I'll be treated like a human being.
