You're skipping work once again. Yami wants to help teach you to control your gift, even though you were still trying to discover what it was. So you got up out of bed and walked to the bathroom. You're back was burning more than usual and you couldn't replace the bandages without help. So you built up your courage and called Yami over to help you out. "What is it?" He asked, walking over towards you, "I think those guys messed up my back at the mental institution and I need to replace these bandages.". Yami was thankfully very chill about it and grabbed some fresh bandages from the first aid kit. He carefully helped you undo the bandages you had wrapped around your back and chest. Everything was going fine until you heard a shocked gasp from Yami. "Whats wrong?", "You might want to see this", Yami takes a picture of your back and shows it to you. "Holy shit..." there was a large heart shaped symbol on your back outlined in red with long red string reaching towards you arms. Scared, you look at your arms and see red string draped all the way down your arms and hands. "It's like mine..." Yami takes off his glove to reveal a blue eye symbol with blue string wrapped around his fingers. 

"Does that mean we both share a gift?" Your hands were shaking as you looked at them. "I think you might have some sort of variant of what I have.". "Here try to focus on the string and imagine duplicating it." He demonstrates and looks at you. You take a deep breath and focus, red string drapes from each of your right hand's fingertips and attaches to each end of your left hand's fingers. You let out a small gasp and Yami smiles. "Well that's an interesting first lesson isn't it?" You look at your hands mesmerized by this gift and smile. "It really is. Now what's next?", Yami's smile grows wider, "Well if your gift is really like mine how about we test traveling?". "To travel I use my string to shape a sigil which I then focus my energy into so I can travel to whatever place I have in mind.", he shows you a drawing of his sigil and you slowly and carefully shape your strings to match.

You finally manage to shape it out and Yami gives you the signal to start. You sit down in front of your sigil and focus your energy, closing your eyes, you picture the realm you and Yami always visit when harvesting fresh ingredients. You open your eyes and Yami stands back impressed, you focus and when you snap back to reality you find yourself in the exact place you had pictured. "I made it!" You stand up proudly and Yami comes in through a sigil behind you. "Great job! You're picking this up quicker than I thought!" He smiled. "I think the best way to test if you have any other ability is here. So how about we try out your special gift on a human target?", you felt your eyes turn red and you smiled, "Sounds perfect!". "Then let's do it." Yami made the portal this time and quickly grabbed the target. 

You smiled and looked into the human's eyes while they shrieked. That weird feeling you had at the mental institution came back and with one swift movement you swiped your arm sideways and a large red tentacle like blade smoothly removed the targets head as it fell to the ground. Blood leaked from the target's neck and head and its body continued to flinch until it fully collapsed. You smile evilly and turn around towards Yami. "So that's your gift... that's amazing!", your evil smile fades into a kinder, softer smile as you thank Yami. "That was crazy. I've never felt that way before! It felt great.", "It should! You progressed faster than I thought, considering the fact that you only found out you were a demon yesterday.". 

What you didn't realize was that the part of you that had been hidden for so long had been helping you from the start.

Finally, you felt like yourself.
