The demon protector

Meeting you

Mike POV

I'm Mike Jones, I'm not a normal human. In fact I'm not a human at all. I got turned into a 23 year old human when I did something even a demon shouldn't do. Am I going to tell you what I did? Nope.

My morning started like any other morning. It was the weekend so no work today so I got up and got dress in some casual clothes and looked in the mirror.

My messy dark brown hair needed to be brushed, my eye bags under my dark green eyes were really bad from working late some days, and my white skin looked scaly like an alligator. If I was going to go try and do my goal I needed to look at least decent as a person.

Oh wait, I haven't told you guys my goal. Well I, a demon, have to save a life. Yeah. A demon has to somehow save one life. And the life you have to save doesn't just come to you, you have to go and look for someone to save. And here's the kicker, I have to stay alive while saving the life. Yep.

Well I looked up 'good deeds to do so you save a life' and after HOURS and I mean HOURS of looking I found out that if you adopt a kid then you will be saving a life.

Now I didn't know if this is what the other demons meant but I'll try anything to get out of this human body.

I started to walk to the nearest adoption center when I passed by a park and saw a little girl. She had short, messy hair that was covering her eyes, a pink dress on, no shoes on, along with her feet being covered with mud. She also had baby blue eyes.

The TL;DR was: She was the embodiment of a puppy dog.

Now even as a demon I loved dogs, I never had the chance to have a dog but I would never hurt them. So having this little scared girl who was basically a puppy dog, I couldn't handle it.

I looked around to see other people passing by the girl as the girl looked for someone. Maybe her mom or dad? I didn't really know but maybe this was my ticket out of here. Plus I would get the chance to help the embodiment of a puppy dog.

"Hey, I'm Mike. Uh- where is your mom or dad?" I asked as I came up to the girl slowly.

"Mommy said she would be back but it's been 2 days and she still isn't back....." The girl explained as she began to cry.

"Hey it's okay....how about we go to the police station to clear this up?" I asked the girl.

"Okay...." The girl said unsure.

"Also what's your name?" I asked the girl.

"M-m-mi-mistake....." The girl said as she shuttered.

"Your mom named you Mistake?" I asked as I got upset with my voice.

Now I may be a demon but I hated child abuse of any kind so this just broke my heart.

"Yes...." The girl said as she shivered from the cold.

"Here, you can have my jacket. Also how about I give you a new name?" I asked as I gave the girl my black and gold jacket.

"S-sure..." The girl said as she took my jacket and put it on.

"How about......hmmmm....Emma?" I asked the girl.

"I love that name!" Emma said cheerily with my jacket being way to big on her.

"Okay, now let's go to the police station." I said as I picked Emma up.

"Weeeeeee!" Emma yelled with excitement.

I needed to be as nice as possible with saving Emma. I couldn't afford to be mean or I would be stuck here forever.

At least that what the demons said to me when making the rules of my punishment.
