"MAX! BROTHER!" The girls cried out, running all over the place in the living room and between all the furniture. They were small and nimble enough to do it.

All three sisters threw as much as they could to deter their pursuer and Chris grabbed the gun hidden in the dining room, the next room over. The six-year-old pointed it at the attacker as her siblings rushed to her side, Cade grabbing a knife on the table and Cat arming herself with a wine bottle which she broke over the edge of the table despite being half full and pointed the jagged remains.

"Come here, I won't hurt you," the figure blatantly lied.

"And I don't want to hurt you," Chris snarled. "But touch one of my sisters and I won't hesitate bitch!"

Her squeaky voice made the threat less intimidating but the figure knew she was dead serious. "And if you shoot me, she dies. I don't think she will appreciate that you shot her dead."

"Then get out of her damn body, Zera!"

Alistor approached them with a smirk but her irises were glowing Energon blue, pupils contracted to tiny dots. "I'm afraid I can't do that, need someone to operate to hurt you physically. I will take you if I can't take Max."

Cat scowled, "You should really learn how to speak in the world of the living because that sounds so wrong. Just say 'drag our souls to the Well', you pedophile creep!"

"What's a 'pedophile'?" Alistor's facial expression turned confusion.

"Have you been sleeping on your job?! Child molester, you daft motherfu-!"

"Cat!" Chris interrupted. "As my sister meant to say, we aren't going anywhere!"

The triplets backed away as Zera moved Alistor's body towards them. "Oh? And who's going to save you?"

Before Zera could do anything, a black form quickly struck him through Alistor, fleeing like a blur, and he grunted as he felt his energy twist in agony. He placed Alistor's hands on her head as a mimicry of his stability inside her trying to break apart but he managed to gain control again. He pinpointed the culprit with brows furrowed in anger.

Kia perched on the table above the girls in a feral pose with her spine erect and baring her sharp teeth that were hidden in the hole that was her mouth normally used to suck souls out of living things.

Dementors may have fed on energy but they were predatory, and their teeth were mainly for defense though they weren't above blood feeding if necessary to survive. It was extremely rare for anybody to see a dementor's retractable teeth buried inside the flesh of their mouth but when seen, it was a warning sign and often a lethal one at that. Those teeth were designed to shred through muscle and, as some speculated, they could break bone in a minute or two and that was one dementor alone. An entire swarm of peeved dementors though...

Zera grunted in distain but held his ground. Kia wasn't about to shred her friend into oblivion to get him out. She was too soft. A real wild dementor wouldn't hesitate regardless of relationship with the victim.

"Well girls, I commend you for standing up to me for this long. Too bad it was for nothing. I'll be sure to let Max know how you are doing in the afterlife, my gift to him," Zera laughed.

A click of a gun behind him made the possessor pause. "I wouldn't do that if I were you."

The demonic entity inwardly groaned and turned to find a gun almost pressed against Alistor's forehead and the pirate himself staring him down on the other end. He was ready to call Max out on the bluff but he could see in the man's eyes he was ready to pull the trigger without a second thought despite Alistor being his apprentice. That scared even Zera.
