(On hold)When Demons Care (Paperhat)

Inner self

Flug's P.O.V
Things were going well with me not transforming at random times or in fits of anger. The items that Blackhat gave me have helped with that and I was grateful for it. Those tranformations get worse every time as it takes over more of my body. Having a shape-shifter ability is almost always deadly as one wrong move could make you unable to go back to being human and become more like a wild beast and a killing machine.

Blackhat and Dementia have been hunted several times so they prefer being home or use portals in Blackhat's case. 5.0.5 usually tries blending in but due to his bear like size he mostly hides but, every couple days he goes to the library read a louds for kids and the kids and reader see nothing frightening about him and enjoy seeing him. Some of the kids even take naps on him which he enjoys and is very protective of them if anyone seemed shifty or approached way too quickly.

5.0.5's protective nature has actually saved several kids from getting severally hurt or snatched by those that have ill intentions multiple times and it was sickening just how many tried tricking kids. I was usually there as 5.0.5's designated chaperone which in a way was preferred as Blackhat would cause a panic and for good reason. He's a ruler of darkness and anywhere he goes demons tend to follow.

Even at home I occasionally see some lower demons causing minor mischief before they get destroyed by Blackhat if they are a repeat intruder or a really dangerous one. He's a softy when he wants to be but I don't dare say it out loud. Me and him have been getting along better but I feel he's hiding something. He's let down his guard around me and I've seen his more human side more often as well. He still is mean when orders are due but, even that he has eased up allowing a day reprieve if needed.

Blackhat and I have gotten started on demon control training. its brutal as I have to try confronting the demon within and keeping focused on it is terrifying. From what I can see of it, its a massive wolf like creature as its fur is matted and unkept but if I try going close it snaps at me and has tried lunging at me only for me to be pulled back by Blackhat's authoritive voice just before it connects with my mind's self. The concept of having a inner me is confusing but, im getting the hang of it. Inner me is definitely more confident then myself and oddly enough has the ears of the wolf like creature. maybe next session I can ask them and see if they can give tips but, until then got to figure out a game plan. My life and sanity depends on it.
