#1 The Aftermath Of The Apocalypse

Chapter 28: The Secret

"So how do we prepare for the ritual?" Luke said.

"We turn to our demon form and push ourselves to our limit." I said. "Won't we injure ourselves?" Luke asked. "We got Jade, she can get water and pour it on us if we pass out." "I am not a nurse." Jade said. "Do you want us passed out for a long time, especially me?" I said. "Ok, I'm a nurse now."

"Go outside and fly high so we don't break anything. We will also try to fall on to something that won't hurt us like a bush." I said.

"Ok then, I'm ready." Luke said. "Alright, try to reach the limit." I said.

"AAGGHHH."

"AAGGHHH."

We both push ourselves almost bursting like a ballon and we started to notice some changes. Luke started to show markings on his body, meanwhile my skin began to turn more maroon-ish.

The more we pushed, the more lightheaded we felt. Suddenly Luke's markings showed up on his face and they appeared on his cheekbones and his jawline. My skin turned maroon and I could feel horns on my forehead.

I started to remember something when we fought ZOZO. I remember I lost control and I grew horns and my skin color changed. This was the form I took back then.

All of a sudden we both stopped, then started to fall towards the ground. Luke landed on a bush meanwhile I landed on the dirt ground. The landing woke me back up and I looked at myself... "I already used this form before." I said to myself. "What do you mean?" Jade asked. "I used this form when I fought my demon, so this means there's more forms waiting to be unlocked."

"Almost forgot something!" Jade said as she ran back inside the house. "The water!!" She said running. Jade poured the water onto Luke, waking him up like it's the apocalypse happening again.

"What happened?!" Luke said. "Look at me, then look at yourself." I said. "Dude, you look like an actual demon. With your skin, the horns, and the eyes." Luke said amazed. "My eyes?" I said. "Oh my God, I didn't realize your eyes are different." Jade added. "Hold on, what's wrong with my eyes?" I asked.

"They're black, and your pupils are glowing pink." Luke said. "Let me see the mirr- oh, I do look like a demon." "And I look like a kid with tattoos." Luke said. "But your tattoos... they're not normal tattoos. The ones on your cheekbones and jawline look like arrows pointing at your chin." I said.

"Hold on, take off your shirt." I said.

Luke takes of his shirt, showing the markings are on his chest, arms, and legs. They are all just stripes going around his body, as if they were rings. The one in his chest is more demonic. Its a demon skull, with the horns and everything.

"I... love this form! It makes me look tougher!" Luke said. "Alright then, turn off your demon form." I said. We go back to normal and go inside to call the rest of the group.

30 minutes go by and everyone arrives shortly.

"Alright then, I'm pretty sure there's more of us out there, but they are stronger than us." I said. "What are rambling about?" Sean asked. "Half Demons, except they are born as one, like John." I said.

"There is about 600 half demons around the world, and... they can kill us with no hesitation, is what I meant." I said. "Pshh, if I'm born like them, then they are no match against me." John said arrogantly.
