Fairly Local

I’m evil to the core

What I shouldn't do I will

They say I’m emotional

What I want to save I’ll kill

Is that who I truly am?

^^ I am obsessed with that song.

Jay's Pov:

Now that Tom was dead, that meant there was only two more to kill: Max and Siva. But since Nathan, my trusted killer has fell off the face of the earth, I had to do it. I could have done without the inconvenience if I was being honest but I suppose that's what you get when you trust humans to do your work for you; they create and leave a huge mess behind for us to clean up. 

I thought I could have trusted Nathan but, oh, how wrong was I?

Faking sympathy was harder than it looked and I wasn't sure how long I could last pretending to wallow in the depression that is now lingering in the air after Tom's death. The air was thick, there was a feel of tension in the air too. They probably blamed this all on Nathan. They were both most likely thinking on ways to kill Nathan themselves and avenge Tom's murder. I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that the real murderer, the one with the intention and who put Nathan up to killing Tom, was me and they have no idea; they are utterly clueless. 

They were honestly living under false pretenses and as much as I tried to fuel their anger, their sadness always overuled the fury that was bubbling inside them. 

I was the demon that both Siva and Max so dearly desired to murder but they assumed that it was Nathan and that was great. I could escape this unharmed. I would survive. 

I had everyone fooled, they were all wrapped around my finger; trapped under my spell. 

"I can't believe that he's..." Max began to say but began to get choked up, trailing off. 

Siva hummed. "Why? I just don't understand, why would Nathan do this?" 

"He's fucking sick." Max spat, the glass of whiskey that he held in his hand wasn't helping the concotion of emotions that were spiralling out of control; ready to explode from within him. 

I nodded my head, staring off into the distance, a frown upon my face. 

Max then suddenly stood up from the sofa, a scowl on his face. "Where is he anyway, I am going to beat the shit out of him." He seethed - this is what I meant by his emotions exploding. 

Siva, the more level-headed out all of us shook his head, standing up too and grabbed Max's arm. "No you aren't! You are drunk and upset and angry! I get it okay, so does Jay, he was your best friend and he was ours too but you and Tom were so, so close." He sighed. "And it's a shame but beating Nathan won't avenge his death, mate."

"You're right," He said. "I should kill him."

I panicked, he couldn't kill Nathan. No, who else would I have to do all my dirty work for me? Nathan loved me and he assumed I loved him too so it was easy for me to manipulate him into killing others for me, although he didn't know that I was the demon that haunted him. 

"No, Siva's right calm down for God sake's before you do something that you regret!"

Max growled, it was animalistic really. I knew I would regret giving him that drink. "Fuck you! Knowing you and Nathan," he hissed out his name as if it was poison on his tongue. "Probably planned this, I mean you're always encouraging with that nonsense demon thing, I mean he is in his twenties and he still believes in demons what a fucking loser."

"Plus when he was put away in the loony bin you still went and visited him, knowing how he mercilessly killed all those innocent people." He then jabbed his index finger towards me, his tone accusing; his face stern. "And you-- you probably helped him kill Tom, I mean you don't look that upset about Tom being dead, your supposed best friend-"

"Right, Max that's enough-"

"No!" Max yelled, he had broken out of Siva's grasp now, flailing his arms, spilling what was left of the whiskey on his black shirt. Not that he noticed, he was way too drunk to notice or even care. "You are to blame for this as much as... he is and I bet that you, you know where he is don't you?"

I shook my head frantically. "No, I don't." 

I really didn't but Max didn't believe me. 

My anger was boiling over, steam may as well have been coming out of my ears I was that annoyed. I could feel the urge to just go and snap Max's neck right then and there but I had to contain myself - I couldn't reveal who I was, especially not in front of Siva. 

If I did I would have to kill him too but I couldn't do that without Nathan. I always loved seeing how guilty he would get after killing someone - it was funny. 

"Bullshit!"

"It's not I swear! It's the truth!" My disbelief overshadowed my anger. "Siva, you have to believe me!"

Siva just sighed and didn't say anything, he just mumbled something and dragged a drunk Max upstairs. 

All I could think of is that I needed to find Nathan as soon as possible and kill both Max and Siva as soon as possible. 

Max was on to me and Siva would soon be on Max's side too. It would be better to get rid of them so I don't have any problems. 

My main problem now was Nathan's whereabouts.

So this is the last chapter of the book :( There will be an epilogue posted asap. Any predictions as to what will happen?

I am sorry this took so long to update, I have had exams all week this past week and last week I have been revising (studying for you Americans) like crazy and I have had no time to update or even write anything which made me p sad because 1) I like writing and 2) you guys deserve updates.
