Running, is what I am doing. It was night, and it was dark. I held a hand that didn’t belong to me. We were chased, by demons, as this person called them. I was crying. But I saw help in front of us. It was a tall man, another demon to be exact. I couldn’t see him, but I saw his silhouette. We hid behind him and he chased the others away, is how I remembered it before waking up in bed, not having a single memory of anything.

A few years later.
I woke up, before my grandfather did. I am 6 years old and have no memory of when I was younger. The only memory I have, is that I have an ‘imaginary’ friend and a family.
I climbed out of bed and walked out of my mother’s old room. We didn’t live with my grandparents. I ran downstairs, startling my grandmother. “Good morning Ashlynn.” my grandmother greeted me, with a smile. “Good morning, granny!” I replied back. My grandmother made sandwiches to me. And I am grateful for that. “What are you going to do today?” she asked me. “I am going to play with my friend, Jacob!” I answered. She smiled even wider. “That imaginary friend of yours?” she asked. I didn’t like that question but I answered it anyways. “Yea!”. No one believes me if I told them that he’s real anyways.
I finished eating and went to put on my shoes. “Have fun~!” my grandmother said, waving at me as I opened the door. I smiled and waved back. “Yeah!”. I closed the door after me.
I walked down a white staircase and went to the road. I had to go somewhere special. More like, our special place. I ran into the woods, that was near the road and continued to run. In front of me now, was a clearing with one big tree. As Cliche as it sounds.
There, sat a little boy, with elf ears and a tail. His hair and the fluff on his tail, was brown. His pupils are dark red that could glow in the dark while the rest of his eyes were a lighter red. His skin tone, was more a dark type of red or whatever that color was. Red? Brown? Something of the sort. He wore a necklace, that was glowing red. So did the tail. He had his red hood up and he wore blue jeans and red shoes. His right hand was more a dragon claw than anything, and so was his right leg. He also have horns and a crown! In my opinion, he looks cool. And dreamy. But mostly cool.
He saw me running over with a big smile and he waved at me. “Hi Jacob!” I shouted to him, he smiled one of his big wide toothy grin. His teeth are sharp and his smile goes literally from ear to ear.
“Hey Ashlynn!” he greeted back. I laughed as I sat down next to him. I noticed something new about him today. He usually had dark red wings, like his mother but… They are gone. And his tail, glowing was also new. I got concerned fast. “What happened to you?” his smile fell as fast as I asked the question. He started to cry. I hugged him as he cried on my shoulder. “I g-got attacked and lost t-them…” his voice cracked.
“Shh, shh. It’s gonna be okay” I mothered him, patting his back, just like a mother would for her child. “But you got, at least your tail back!” he smiled, which made me smile wider. “Y-yeah.” he sniffed. He held his tail tightly, hugging it.
“I have never even got to feel your tail, or your horns… You never let me… But can I?” I asked. He chuckled and nodded, blushing. I knew why I wasn’t allowed to and that was mostly because it was a demon thing, that the couples would do something like that. Mostly to drag the other one away but still. I blushed anyways as I touched his tail. His face got even more red and his ears also got redder. “Your tail is cool!” I exclaimed. “And the fur is floofy!”. my grin widened. And so did his eyes. “T-thank you…” he barely was able to mutter out. Then I went for his horns. They were sharp. “Wooow!” I exclaimed. “SO sharp!”.
He was a tomato at this point. I giggled at the sight, blushing even more. I let go. “So what are we gonna do?” I asked him, watching the clouds move. He seemed to think about it. “Want to come home with me?” he asked. I nodded. If anything, I wanted to be in the castle with him because his castle is so big and there are so many places to be at! So of course, I would agree! He smiled one of those big grins of his, as he stood up, his tail, swinging from side to side.
He hastily took my hand and we made our way further in to the forest. We talked about everything and anything. Soon enough, we stopped as Jacob was chanting something. It was stuff that I didn’t understand.
A big demonic pentagram appears, glowing, on the ground, as what seems like a type of black smoke came after. He lead me to it, as we jumped in. It felt like being high, seeing different colors and everything before we finally got to our destination. I felt a little bit of nausea. I used him as support until I was good again.
He opened the door for me and gestured for me to go in. I smiled at him, thanking him before going in. “I’m home!” he shouted loudly. His butler came and gave me a smile. “Hello miss Woods.” he greeted with a bow. I didn’t know why he did that, no, almost everyone bows down to me for some reason. But I didn’t mind feeling like a royalty.
I took off my shoes. “What can I do for you today miss Woods?” the butler asked. “Can I get a hot chocolate?” I asked sweetly. He nodded. “Of course, Miss Woods.” with that, he walked off, probably to the kitchen. Jacob chuckled. “Hot chocolate, huh?” I pouted. “Whaaat? I can’t help that I love hot chocolate!” I told him with my arms crossed. He laughed. “Well, let’s go to my room!” He started to run. I ran after him.
We ran past the living room and I greeted the queen and king that was in there. They greeted me back, with a smile. A puppy, came and jumped at us, barking in happiness. The puppy did not look so normal like, but more demonic. What I know about it is that only the high ranking demons are allowed to have demonic breeds like this. Others, would have normal breeds. I kinda understand that but I was still confused about it.
We were playing in his room.
