E: *coughing and pain noises*

?: "He's awake."

??: "Was the grass necessary?"

?: "He's unable to be knocked out by force."

A light got flashed in my eyes.

E: "Bloody fuckin hell!"

?: "You sure this is the right person?"

My eyes were blurred, so I couldn't make out faces in front of me.

E: "W-Where am I?"

??: "That's for us to know, and you to find out."

E: "Huh? Who- Who are you?"

?: "Can't you read the name tag?"

E: "You blinded me with the fuckin light you flashed in my face, no, I can't fuckin read it."

?: "No need for hostility."

E: "You kidnapped me from my own home. I'll be pissed all I want till I get fuckin answers."

??: "Well, my name is Dr. Iplier, to the left is my assistant, Maddie."

(Dr. Iplier and Maddie are DI and Ma)

E: "Where even am I? Better question, what do you want from me?"

DI: "Simple, give us the details, on the nicked as Brine.
His strengths, weaknesses, but mainly his power and how it works."

E: "How the fuck should I know that?"

DI: "I know you don't, but the one who lies with in does."

E: "What?! Are you on fuckin drugs? The fuck are you talking about mate?"

DI: "Show me, the demon."

E: "I have no clue what your talking about."

DI: "Let me rephrase. Show me, the ink demon."

E: "Ya deaf or somethin. I just said I have no clue what your talking about."

DI: "Hmm, shame really. Didn't think I'd have to do this, but, he come out one way or another, he will tell me everything.
Maddie, you have the package?"

She connect me to a electric circuit.
I hear a voice in my head.

?: "When comes desperate, yell mask."

DI: "I'll ask one last time.
Show. Me. The ink demon."

I stayed silent.

DI: "People talk one way or another, but the best way to get someone to talk, is an electric shock."

He pressed a button, then all of a sudden lightning and electricity covered my body, I'm screaming in pain.
After 20 secs, he let go of the button.

E: *static heavy breathing*

DI: "I'll ask again.
Show. Me. The ink demon."

I whispered mask, and something happened to my body.

E: *sigh, static laughter*
*Static normal voice* "Y-You really a desperate fool.
Th-Thinking you have control here."

DI: "What."

E: "Oh you dumb fool, you are absolutely uneducated of me.
You think I'm going to serve you because you hurt the worthy host of my power.
*Demonic laughter*

DI: "What in the-"

I broke free of the restraints, and switched places with something, that called itself, Entity the ink demon.

Entity(En): "You hold no power here.
You messed with something you shouldn't have and have awaken the demon within.
Now, I'll give you one last chance, tell me exactly what you want? Or else something my not go to plan for you."

DI: "I want to know about the one they call, Brine."

En: "Well. *Small demonic laughter* That is a concern, which is non of yours.
Good by "Doctor"."

Entity warped us out, then unmerged me.
I was in the ground and with as much strength as I could, I moved myself backwards as fast as I could.

E: *heavy panic breathing*

En: "Hello Ethan."

E: "W-What are you?! What do you want from me?!"

En: "First, I'm going to need you to calm down, your in no danger with my presence."

I couldn't fine any words to say, so I stuttered.

En: "My name is Entity, and I am your Demon of protection.
Your and those around you are safe in my presence.
Just say the word you whisper out loud, when times are desperate, and I shall form.
You, and your mother are the only ones who know about me.
So it's probably best you ask her about me."

Before I could answer, he merged back with me, and we warped back to where I was, outside my house.
I walked inside, still confused with no answers.

M: "Oh, Ethan.
I didn't know you were gonna be home so soon."

E: "Mom, I- I have a lot of questions. And I hope they all get answered because I may have just met, someone, in which in questioning my life on what is real anymore."

M: "What are talk-"

Entity unmerged from me.

En: "Good evening."

M: "You."

En: "I think it be best if you tell him about me."

M: "I believe I know what's best for my son."

E: "I- Uh, I agree, with Entity."

M: "Wha-"

En: "You know he was bound to find out eventually."

M: *sigh* "Ethan, as you know, this Entity.
He's, your brother."

E: "Huh? I thought I only had a sister. What do you mean Brother?"

En: "A long time ago, before you, existed, Brine and Jessica, had a son, that son was me."

I was just speechless from what I'm hearing.

En: "That son had special abilities, but he had the powers of a demon but more ink like.
Brines own brother not only tried to banish Brine, but tried to kill his son, because he sensed an unstoppable power within him.
So, they had to find somewhere I keep me safe.
The day you were born, was the same day I was about to die, so they fused me with you to keep me safe.
And, well, now here we are."

I sat in silence.

M: "I know its a lot for you hun, but, do know that, Entity is your Demon of Protection, no matter what you will never be harmed.
Think of him as an unkillable 2nd life."

E: "I- I understand.
Just, why hid it from me?"

En: "You weren't ready to now the truth."

M: "and if you knew the truth, when you were the shitty person you were. You probably use it for bad."

E: "yeah. I guess your right."

M: "Well, I suggest getting some sleep.
I know this is a lot for you."

I got up and walked to my room.
I took of some of my clothes, the laid down on the bed.
I decided to just rest for the day, tomorrow is another day.
