Chapter 7: Running with the demons
Soon the rain stopped as it was silent in the town as in his bed Stolas was sweating and struggling to sleep as something was swirling in him as he felt restless as the dream came much quicker to the little boy as his right arm glowed those same golden lines as he tossed and turned in his bed
He was back in that chalk like world he could see a trail of light leading into the forest he followed running faster and faster as the owl demon stepped into view walking closer to him as Stolas stared at the odd demon…
Then he blinked like his first encounter with Blitzo he was no longer staring at the owl demon…
But himself…
Stolas woke up but he felt something had happened something very diffrent as he never saw in the night so clearly and felt like he had a coat of feathers on and his senses were exploding as he was confused "H-Huh? Wh-what? What is go?" He sarted as he saw Elpheba but she was covered in a odd aura as the poor green tinted crow panicked screeching and hoping as if worried about something "Elpheba can…can you smell that? What is going on? Elphi please calm down I…I can see your scent!" He said as poor Elpheba was still screeching worried and scared as Stoas looked down and saw his hands were feathery? Causing him to panic "Wha *Turns and sees in the mirror he had changed!* Ohh no! Oh no! Oh No! No no no!" He yelped as instead of a human boy he was a owl demon with grey and whitish feathers and four red eyes dressed unlike a pheasant but like a little prince sans the crown as he panicked.
Octavia and Loona hearing the sound of a screeching owl and a panicking Elpahbah got up as they hurried to check on Stolas but when they got to his room they saw a owl demon a small one dressed in clothes fit for a upper classman but there main worry was that the owl demon was above there son "Wha what the?" Said Loona shock "My baby!" Yelled Octavia scared the owl demon would hurt her son as Stolas saw his moms "Moms! Moms! Its me please dont panic!" Yelled Stolas but to his moms his cries came out as Owl noises as in a panic Loona fell down but swiftly grabbed her crossbow "No please Mama Loona its me!" Yelled Stolas "Octavia duck!" Yelled Loona as she fired as Octavia ducked as Stolas dodged but before his hunter mom could get another shot Stolas quickly slipped out the window hearing mama Octavia yelling at his body to wake up as Loona was worried about how a owl demon got into there home.
Leaping from rooftop to rooftop Stolas managed to avoid the guards and get out of the town and into the forest scared especially since his mom nearly shot her he ran fast to get away and figure out what happened to him as he accidently tripped on a tree root as he stummbled with a yelp as the owl fell into a familiar clearing "This…this is where I met Blitzo as a imp he he can help" he said as he sniffed picking himself up as it smelled like Blitzo! As he quickly looked around as he saw the scent trail shift into what looks like Blitzos demon form "B-B-Blitzo!" He yelled as he followed it hoping he has the answers he needs as he followed the scent through the forest "Blitzo! Blitzo!" He yelled stumbling a few more times to avoid running into the other animals of the forest yelling Blitzos name as the path the scent was leading him down started to look familiar! It was leading him to their den!
"Blitzo! Blitzo!" He yelled as he rushed through the wall of ivy following the scent until he ran up to the path of the den entrance as a imp was standing there accidently crashing into it as the two stumbled into the den as the poor owl was pinned by the imp growling but he smelled familiar "B-Blitzo?" He asked which the imps eyes widened in surprise "Stolas?" He asked confused as Barbie, Verkrosia, Vortex, Frizzaroli, Jessie, Chaz, Striker and a few other demon walkers surrounded him in demon form as Stolas stood up confused and afraid "Something weird has happened to me" he said his legs shaking as Barbie wire walked up "No kidding we can see that as Blitzo was panicking "Oooh this is not good this is not good I fixed the bite ,I thought you'd be alright if I healed you! Mom is going to kill me when she finds out" said Blitzo freaking out "And you deserve it" said Verkrosia as Blitzo hayed at her "Well my Mama Loona will kill me!" Said Stolas as the wild demons of the den started to sniff at the new den mate curious as Chaz circled studied him along with a ice peacock named Andrephelus "Humm this is rare a goitia demonwalker" said Andrephelus as Jessie studied Stolas "A young one at that" he said as a curious hellhound sniffed Stolas behind as he yelled but Vortex nipped at him "Hay no going that far you lot!" He said
Female voice: hay Tex what is going on?
Stolas looked up and was in awe seeing a beautiful gold furred hellhound with features of a bee dressed very bright and near her was a blue feathered bird demon dressed in a cute suit watching hiding behind the taller hellhound legs a bit nervous "Noting Bee just introducing our new Demonwalker to the clan" said Tex as Stolas hearing her voice recognized her "Your the cooks adopted daughter you're…" started Stolas surprised "A Demon walker *Chuckles* same with little Ozzie here" she said gently nudging Asmodus forward as Frizzaroli walked over in his imp form smiling at the rooster like demon "Hi" said Ozzie as Stolas eyes widened recognizing the voice "Your" started Stolas "Were Demonwalkers, we willingly became them to be close to the ones we fell in love with and to be honest its liberating" said Bee as Stolas was shocked "Liberating? How?" He started as Blitzo leaned close and grinned "Seeing you like this its amazing there is so few of us left" said Blitzo as Stolas was annoyed "Great how is this great! I am a demon walker!" Yelled Stolas as Blitzo rubbed the back of his head "Yeah mom had said something about this awhile back to not bite someone unless we want to mate with them like Tex, Frizzaroli and Jessie did and there is full trust" said Blitzo "What you knew and you still bit me to mate with?!" Yelled Stolas "I did not want to mate with you and I was trying to get you out of that ruddy trap mama told us this a long time ago so its been in the back of my head! Honestly I have forgotten about it until I bitten you yesterday" said Blitzo as Stolas calmed down.
"So that was why you looked like that way yesterday when you got me out of the trap" said Stolas "Yes and its why I lead you to the den I though that if I healed the bite you would be okay and This *Guestured to all of Stolas* wouldn't happen to me" said Blitzo "That is what you mean when you said 'before its to late'" said Stolas "That is what mom warned us to never bite anyone unless they want to join willingly and I can see why" said Barbie wire "Hay I sometimes cant help it! I never really bitten anyone…not on purpose or accident" said Blitzo looking sheepish as Stolas was still worried "W-well this is still kinda bad, what about my body?" Asked Stolas worried about his body "Its asleep, when you sleep you become a Demon and you are a boy when you're awake" said Blitzo "Its ok I promise" said Ozzie but to Stolas it was a pretty big deal of worry "B-But…but what about the soldiers? And my mom" asked Stolas scared but Blitzo took his hand "Dont worry about that learn how to be a demon first" said Blitzo dragging Stolas to the entrance near a waterfall.
"Why do you want to be human? Being a demon is way better, I'll show you the same with the others" said Blitzo as the two walked out the waterfall falling in the background "Can you smell me?" Asked Blitzo
(Cue the soft melody of running with the wolves)
Stolas smiled and chuckled "Of course everyone can" said Stolas as even as a imp Blitzo did smell strong as the imp chuckled "Well close your eyes" said Blitzo as Stolas closed all four of his eyes as in the dark something seem to form a shape in the darkness…a scent forming Blitzos face
Blitzos voice: you dont need your eyes to see and you can hear everything that moves
Stolas moves his head as he can hear the soft patter and silhouette of a mouse
And your feet can hear through the earth
Which was true as Stolas felt through the vibrations the feeling of a rabbit hopping in the woods
But dont you know were stronger now'
In colors and images in Stolas mind eye he saw the vibrations of the earth as to him it vibrates through his new body sensations he could never felt as a human
My heart still beats
"And you have stronger legs and greater stamina then a normal human so you can run really fast and jump so high!" Said Blitzo running off as he seems to run claimed up a curved rock and did a back flip as Stolas laughed Blitzo ran off his aura and scent blazing in Stolas eyes of a demon
And my mind still fears
"*Laughing* hay wait for me!" Said stolas as he ran after Blitzo
But were running out of time
Blitzo: Keep your nose down! Be a demon!
Stolas did so and he felt his body was capable to run faster he was stronger more agile as he ran through the woods the scent of Blitzo he followed as behind the wild demons and the other clan members followed some flying some running on all fours (The hellhounds) as Bee and Vortex ran close together as Verkrosia, Jessie her twin brother Marcus flew in the air as Frizzaroli and Barblie swung and climbed on the trees with Striker and Chaz following along with Ozzie and Andrephelus with agility and strength
All the echos in my mind cry
Theres blood on your lies
And the scars open wide
Soon Stolas caught up with Blitzo as the imp playfully ran faster as Stolas continue his pursuit with his new strength as a demon as Stolas felt something he never felt in a long time as he picked up the speed
There is nowhere for you to hide
The hunters moon is shining
Freedom
As soon he came to a rock and with amazing strength lept off it with a strong jump and had jumped in front of Blitzo as the imp smiled impressed for the townie
I'm running with the demons tonight
I'm running with the demons tonight
As Blitzo playfully nudged Stolas as the now owl smiled feeling the freedom of being a demon he never truly felt as a human
I'm running with the demons tonight
And soon behind them the clan caught up as Barbie caught up to her twin and Stolas smiling seeing the owl feel free as the ivy thanks to there magic parted
I'm running with the demons tonight
I'm running with the
Soon the owl and the male imp came to a clearing as they stopped "You let them out?" Asked Stolas wondering about the wild demons "The forest is ours at night wait till you see" said Blitzo as he ran off with the wild demons and his clan following as Stolas does the same
My spirt talks I'm everything
The group ran up a hill with Blitzo and Stolas leading the pack together as there is a sense of liberation running in a group, a clan, a family
But were running out of Time
Time
However to Stolas surprise they came to a edge of a cliff as Blitzo, his clan and the wild demons were able to jump over the ledge to the other side in a wave of colors of diffrent types
All the echos in my mind cry
As on the edge Blitzo stayed behind encouraging Stolas to jump as a demon he will be ok
There blood on your lies and the scars open wide
Stolas winned a bit like a owl and seem to step back as Blitzo was worried
There is no where to hide
However it was all for Stolas to be able to do a running leap as he jumped off the edge of the cliff
The hunters moon is shinning
However stolas was a bit nervous but he managed to land…well on Blitzo as the two tumbled rolled together
I'm running with the demons tonight
I'm running with the demons tonight
As the two tumbled into a pile of leaves as under the reflection of a moonlight night a leaf fell into a puddle
I'm running with the demons
As Stolas and Blitzo ran through it causing a splash together as the two soon got into a wider area with a larger puddle
I'm running with the demons tonight
I'm running with the demons
I'm running with the
As Stolas heavy splashed Blitzo who looked at the owl…then laughed as the two playfully played in the puddle and then the rain as drops fell from the sky as it heavy rained the wind blowing through the fields as through the opening in the tree tops Stolas watched with Blitzo in awe at the beauty of actual feeling and seeing it out of his home and under the sky
I'm running with the
Thunder clashed and clapped as Stolas in his owl form felt the rain on his feathers, the cool wetness of it all with him protected by his feathers as he felt some sort of wild feeling blossom in his chest
I'm running with the demons
As Blitzo ran around playfully as Stolas watched
I'm running with the, I'm running with the
Soon the two ran into the fields under the moonlight no humans, just them and the clan and wild animals all over as they ran through the fields under the birds, the moonlight sky just all of them
Free
I'm running with the demons
Blitzo and Stolas chased each other playfully around the tree with Bee and Vortex playfully following, as well as Barbie and Verkrosia, Ozzie and Frizzaroli, Jessie and Andrephelus and then Chaz, Striker and the wild demons as the wild ones swirled in a canthony of colors
I'm running with the demons
Then under the light of the pale moon Blitzo and Stolas on a tall rock with the others they let out a loud and strong howl and roar to the sky
I'm running with the demons tonight
I'm running with the demons
I'm running with the
It was a night of discovery and amazing freedom that Stolas now a Demonwalker had ever experienced
Authors note: well that was fun for Stolas even though it was scary at first as a demon walker but thanks to Blitzo he learned the freedom of being a demon walker and how amazing it felt.
Next chapter as Stolas sneaks in he discovers that Blitzo, Barbie and Frizzaroli mother Bella was held in a cage in her demon form but warns Stolas to tell her children to go and run and flee for there safety
