Transformation

A few hours prior...

"We'll see about that..." the harrowing sound of Jimins voice laced with the growling tone of the demon fills the empty dorm hallway. Halmi's short yelps and gasp could also be heard as the demon pressed its fingers harshly against the skin of her throat. Her grip loosens on the onyx blade the tighter she was strangled. She barely hears the soft sound of it hitting the floor as she fought for air.

It continued to squeeze, watching the old woman's veins bulge and her eyes roll, the color in her face quickly changing as she was constricted. Halmi's vision falters and tiny black dots cluster over her eyes as the seconds passed.

Suddenly all of her air is restored when the demon releases her. It lets her drop to the floor with a loud thud and Halmi gasps and coughs dramatically, making the demon scoff in disgust.

Jimin's blackened orbs roll in annoyance.

"Get up...and open the door.." his marked voice commands. Halmi, who is still trying to breathe normally, caresses her bruised throat as she gazed up at the scowling beast.

"What?" she coughs hoarsely. Jimin tips his chin towards the door beside them and gazes coldly at her with expectance.

"I trust you've done something to the doorknob. I could smell the stink of your efforts all the way in the parking lot...Your herbs and oils. An effective deterrence but..." it shrugs and Halmi frowns.

"No..." she sniffs. The demon narrows its gaze.

"No? Seriously..." it chuckles. Halmi rubs at her aching neck and winces at the pain. She then smacks her tongue, tasting the traces of blood coating her gums and the back of her mouth. Shaking her head, she gazes bravely up at the figure towering over her.

"Go to hell..." she mumbles with a grimace.

The demon stares down at her with squinted eyes for a beat, letting her response settle. In the blink of an eye, she's being lifted from the floor again and slammed violently against the wall. The demon roars angrily through Jimin, red eyes piercing through the black as it's anger piqued.

Halmi screams in surprise at the sound, trying weakly to turn away from Jimin's contorted features.

"Gladly........SO OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR NOW!" it sprays saliva all over her with the hurried demand and Halmi complies as soon as her feet touch the floor.

As it opens. Halmi is shoved aside roughly and sent back to the murky flooded floor as the demon stepped inside of the boy's dorm.

The sound of the demon's footsteps fades as it transcended from the doorway to the hall, where the shared bathroom's open-door awaited his arrival.

The dark mirror glistened and rippled as the demon neared it, the silhouette of its true form miming Jimins movements as it approached.

Halmi was still struggling to push herself up from the wet floor when she heard Jimin's strangled screams along with another sound that could only be described as bones snapping and breaking. And came the wretching sound of someone vomiting profusely.

After the weighted sound of a body hitting the floor makes Halmi flinch, dead silence followed. She freezes, her eyes wide and her heart racing as the seconds passed.

Waiting.

Jimin lays motionless against the bathroom floor, barely breathing.His chest caves slightly as he exhales and the pain from the demon's invasion forces him awake.
