After his mom made him go to school, Damien just about had it. He came to her begging her to help him and she straight up didn't believe him. Sure, he lied sometimes and maybe he did steal stuff but he was always told the truth when it mattered. And this shadow was a horrible person. Maybe if he listened to it then he could get rid of it. "Ok why are you in my body?" Why not choose someone else? The shadow scoffed. "Look, I didn't choose you, but you were the one that touched the damn stone fragment. Ya should've left it alone. " "So I'm stuck with you?" He asked. "Yup pretty much. The shadow replied. Great. His day couldn't get any worse. Turning around, he grabbed his phone off his drawer. Texting his friend, Tess, he told her that he would come to the party a bit late. Turning off his phone, he got off the bed and put on a hoodie and jeans. Grabbing his phone and his earpods, he scrounged under the bed, looking for his shoes. Damien checked his watch and saw that it was 9:30. He smiled. The party was gonna be lit! No parents, loud music, and plenty of booze. Now he just had to sneak out quietly.

Slowly opening his door, he peeped through the crack. His mom was there. His stepdad wasn't there. He was probably at some bar getting high. Quietly shutting the door, he went to the window side. Looking down he saw that his window was right above the living room window. The shadow laughed "Eyyyy. Now ya can't go to the party. I can help you though." The boy laughed. "What can you do for me?" "Where is this party? Ya ever been there before?" Damien thought about the party's location. The party is at- "I know where the party is." The shadow responded. "How did you even know?" Damien asked him. "I read your mind." He said simply. "You can read minds?! This is gonna be epic! Me? Being able to read peoples minds? This is AWESOME!" Damien said, speaking eagerly. The shadow blinked. "Eh.....no. I said I read your mind." Damien's expression soured. "Lame!" The shadow scoffed. Damien sat on the bed. A second later he was sitting on the ground in front of Justin's cabin (where the party was being held). Damien gave a yell of surprise, looking around. "What the-Waiiit!" Looking around he saw that he was at the party. "Awesome!" Just then, a group of drunk teenagers came stumbling outside laughing and talking. One of them noticed Damien. "Hey dude, ya gonna sit there all night? Come on in bro!" Damien got up brushing his pants off. He walked up to the door and went inside. The music boomed loudly and the neighbors were not happy. Damien looked at his hands speechlessly. He had to find Tess. Damien walked through the house, looking for Tess. At the minibar, Tess was sitting there with a drink in her hand. As he started making his way to the table, a boy sat down next to Tess. He started trying to touch Tessa's face even though it was clear she wasn't intrested and she kept pushing him away. Pushing through the crowd he grabbed on to the boys striped bumblebee jacket, draping him by his shirt front. "Hey you! Lay off my friend!" The boy laughed. "What are you doin Drex? Ya tryna get some hospital time? Well then, suit yourself!" The boy swung at Damien. As he brought his fist to hit Damien in the face, Damien grabbed his hand. The drunken crowd gasped in disbelief. The boy, who was a bit larger than Damien, was grunting and struggling to move his hand. "L-let my hand go!" The boy whimpered, struggling to move his hand. The crowd started murmuring with excitement. Damien held the boys hand slowly tightening his grip, showing no mercy. "Damien! Enough!" Tessa said looking at him in disbelief. Damien release the boys hand, causing it to drop to the floor with a dull thud on the wooden floor. The boy cradled his arm gently in his other hand. People were cheering and clapping. Damien's mind exploded with excitement. His shadow was going wild. Grabbing on to Damien's hand, Tessa dragged him outside, leaving the rest of the crowd inside, all pressing in around the unfortunate boy, trying to see if his arm was broken.

Outside, Tess looked at Damien with a disappointed look in her eyes. Damien stood there confused as the smile slowly slid off his face. "What's wrong Tess?" Damien asked. "Why did you have to fight him?" She asked, arms folded. Damien's mind was going hay wire. "He was about to try to- "To what? Touch my face? Why are you so defensive of me? I get that we are friends but still!"Tess interrupted. Seeing the hurt look on Damien's face, her face softened. "Look, I get it. I'm like family to you. I know with what's going on with your dad and mom, I'm technically your best friend. But you can't keep risking it all to save me. What if you had lost the fight?" Damien went silent. She sighed. Giving him a hug, she said: "It's alright, I forgive you. Just don't do that again." Damien smiled looking back at her.
