The Princess Of Demons

chapter seven

It was finally Sunday and everything seemed normal. That's what everyone thought but that wasn't the case. Ashlynn acted more mature for her age and even went as far as to pick a fight with her bullies!

At home, she shows her distaste towards her father more and had no problems with picking a fight with him either which lead to her getting locked in the basement. She wasn't acting all that normal.

The truth is that Jacob was behind all of this. He wanted the bullies to pay for hurting her and he wanted everyone to know how horrible her father was by pushing all his buttons. He knew that this day was the day she'll get exorcised but he had other plans about that.

Sure, he'll play their little game but he won't let himself get taken out of her body. He needed the practice after all and she consented to it. He's gonna make sure that everyone understood that messing with would meant messing with him.

Ashlynn was enough to feed him his desired energy. Now, he could take the souls that were served on a platter, which didn't make any sense what so ever but he knew there was another way of getting that energy that souls would provide. Having a friend to, perhaps, scare or got enough energy that they could share without knowing it. That wasn't exactly why he became friends with Ashlynn though but it was quite the bonus for him.

He simply found it easy to befriend Ashlynn and he couldn't help but get attached. He was the nicest of all his subjects after all.

Putting on formal clothing, he went downstairs where her parents resided, waiting for him. "Ah, Ashlynn. I thought I would have to help you" her mother said when noticing her 'daughter' appear in the kitchen. "No, I can do so myself" he decided to reply in Ashlynn's voice. It wasn't hard to mimick another person when in said person's body, since their vocal cords make it easy.

They ate their breakfast and ventured out, not forgetting to lock the door on the way.

Arriving at the church, he couldn't help but gawked at it. The church was humongous, like one of those one would see in the movie; The hunchback of Notre Dame, the 1996 one.

He couldn't believe his eyes at how grand and amazing this place looked, even if it is old. Though, he should've expected this. This is a church of course, they have to be somewhat grand of the lord above, then again, what is the purpose of having something look so luxurious? Is that just something humans do for someone like God? Doesn't that also mean that they see royalty as such too, if they do the same for them? Jacob could only wonder since his not all that familiar with how the human world worked, even though, many spirits comes from there.

He never saw how huge the world actually is, he only hanged around Ashlynn, until he had to go to school and being tutored at home for educational purposes.

He saw a forcefield around the church and its property. It seemed to be invisible for the human eye though. He knew that once he goes in, he'll be trapped. He had to make a plan to destroy that field so he could leave but he wanted to make a name for himself in this holy place. He had to be careful.

The inside was just as grand and luxurious looking like the outside. It was obvious they took good care of this church and wanted it to look how it looked back in it's prime. This church was quite the artifact in itself.

Looking around, he noticed that there were holy aura around. People had their guardians around, as well as holy spirits. They looked at him horrified though, already knowing that he was possessing the poor brunette and they were also anxious about what he might do. They may not know him well but it was obvious that they knew he was of a high class in hell.

Soon, angel guards ascent outside the grand doors, seeing him. Their eyes wide as one of them approaches, "Your highness of hell, what are you doing here!?" Jacob gazed at the angel from the corner of his eye. "That's none of your business, sir" he started to give the angel a side grin. "I'm not dying here though, you'll see what I mean~" his grin went wider, playfulness danced in 'his' brown orbs that turned mischievous.

The male angel paled at what he's trying to get at. "You'll ruin the peace treaty! Please, we'll let you leave if you don't do this!" Jacob hummed quietly. "I don't think so. I want to leave either way and I know that they won't let me go regardless since I walked in here." He told them with a smile. "Do say hello to your masters for me" he told them as Ashlynn's father grabbed his wrist and dragged him to the front where the priest was standing.

He could sense eyes in him from everywhere, including the priests. They may not be able to see him but they could sense him. Due to their strong beliefs of good and evil, they want to eradicate and exorcise anything and anyone that could possibly have a demon around or within. Demons in the humans eye, were evil creatures and they didn't deserve to live, which is baloney in Jacobs opinion. Demons are the shadows of angels, his ancestry that retired or may have died due to some unknown reasons are practically the angels and the gods opposites. If the demons die, there will be unbalance. What would happen to the humans then if that unbalance happens? Nobody knew that answer but humans seem to not care.

They believe in what they believe and doesn't seem to have that much of an understanding that demons needs to be alive too. Due to a war between hell and heaven from centuries ago, there have been a bit of an unbalance. The gods that reside in hell, or have those abilities to drag someone there and the gods in heaven have always been a bit at a war form time to time. It is up to the test of their subjects to clean up.

Even so, they tend to be with themselves, except for one god, who goes by many names. Someone needs to keep an eye while the gods where doing whatever they were doing. It's the same with the gods of hell, if they even exist in the first place that is. Due to this, the emperor keeps and eye on the demons.

This peace treaty lasted for a few centuries but time was changing and the peace was heavily strained. The emperor and the god is having a bit of a disagreement currently and at some point, the human realm might suffer for it. Well, it depends on how bad it goes of course. What Jacob is about to do, most definitely will start some conflict since heaven was adamant on having nothing bad happening. They wanted this peace and order for the humans but we all know, it never lasts for a long period of time.

Jacobs father knew how sinful the humans have became and wanted to punish them for certain actions they have made, since it was an agreement that he did the punishments to the bad, worse and wicked of people who committed serious acts such as murder or cannibalism, for example. It was a simple deal for this peace treaty since they wanted to make a better place after destroying the dinosaurs.

They did have a few arguments about Jesus Christ as well but they did come to terms with it eventually and agreed about him and his life. It was quite unfortunate that he died though but the religion became a thing in the end and everybody knew of him, for the most part. 

It was always a thing that happened. The god and the emperor having an argument and then they fight for a little bit. Either they come to terms before the fight or they will accidently do something stupid like, giving a decease such as the black plauge that one time. Anything could happen and who knows if the other gods helped out with the cleaning part since, nobody knew if they still existed. It's been a while and they most definitely would 'cause quite the chaos themselves.

Blood was running down the brunette's nose apon arriving but it only became visible and worse when inside the building. It didn't matter though since Jacob had an idea. He was going to give back control to Ashlynn and then, he'll have his fun when everything seemed semi normal.
