If being dead was going to hurt so much, I think I preferred being alive. It was still black and silent. I couldn’t see anything or anyone. Maybe this was the afterlife? No, that couldn’t be right. There’s a whole Realm for the ‘Underworld’. More so land of the dead because it wasn’t really under anything…

And that’s when a beep became audible.

Maybe I was flashing back. Hopefully I was flashing back.

“About time she started to breathe again. I was going to run out of power.”Came a male’s voice.

I wanted to have a full blown spaz attack. I wanted to pull my hair out and run around like a chicken screaming! I wanted to go and not just slit my wrists…BUT CUT THEM OFF! I wanted to go murder that prick of a Lord! And then I would drink all his blood till he’s as dry as the dirt beneath his lifeless body. I wanted to eat myself, INSIDE OUT! I wanted to go and PERSONALLY sue the whole monarchy of the Demon Realm! And then I would make the previous monarchy of the realm become the slaves, and make the previous slaves the higher authority! I wanted to…hmm…I’ll think of it all later, if I’m still alive.

“What’s her name and species?”Asked the same male.

My eyes wouldn’t open. Like something was stopping them.

“She’s a lower demon and her name is…” A woman’s voice trailed off.

Then something was stuck into my arm. It hurt like hell though. I groaned in my sluggish state.

More beeping, the pressing of buttons and a few slams. “Hmm, she ran off from the Demon Realm. She has no family records other than her brother, who was killed. And her name is Lacey Chaos…wait, wasn’t that one of the Lord’s families that worked?” She sounded puzzled.

“Yes, the brother did. Then he started stealing from the family and was in debt, till they killed him of course. But how is this girl in so much trouble? She couldn’t have opened a portal herself.” Came the male’s voice once more, but his last comment had sounded more like a question to himself.

“She did.” His voice sent chills down my sorry ass spine. He was here.

“But, how? She’s a lower demon. She doesn’t have that type of pow-“

He cut the woman off. “She’s stronger than you think.” His deep voice silenced the room. “She could easily open a portal. Not a very big one, but she would be able to do it.”

“Is that why you brought her to us?”Asked the woman, father away from me than before.

“Well, one- If I took her back to the Demon Realm, she would run off again or I’d have to deal with her. And two- She is a delinquent in our realm, and I wouldn’t like to send someone as talented to jail to be hanged or tortured.” He said, less power in his voice.

“You’re being exceedingly merciful tonight, Lord.” She said.

“No, it’s not like that. I wouldn’t be able to kill her.” He said, sounding regretful.

“But wh-“

“I’ll take my leave. I’ll be participating in this, just to be sure. By the way, she can hear you.” And his voice became more distant.

At that instant my eyes flew open, the war over.

I looked around, eyes open. “W-w-where am I? Who are you? Where’s the e-exit?” I asked, slipping off the bed. “And where…are my c-clothes.” I looked down at the white boxers and singlet.

“Get back in the bed.” His voice came from the far wall.

I looked over to see him standing in the door way. Lord Kayle, his black hair in his pale (handsome) face, his bright green eyes staring straight at me. He had a bit of stubble and a black coat on, trying to blend in with the humans. Our clothes from the Demon Realm were quite similar to the clothes from Earths 19th century. Just not as puffy.

“I s-said; where am I?” I demanded, trying to keep in a cough. I knew if I let it out that I’d go into a coughing fit.

The woman went to leave the room, holding a clip board and set of keys. “Come, she’s fine now.” She whispered to the male.

The blond male tapped on the computer and checked something, before following the woman out of the room.

“Why did y-you bring me here?” I said; my voice croaky as I tried to keep the cough in.

“Get back in the bed. You’re unaware of the damage that I did to your body last night due to the numbing of the morphine. I suggest you don’t try anything.” He said; arms crossed.

I looked down. I looked fine. But my legs hurt. “I’m f-fine.” I said; trying to sound serious.

He clicked, and my knee buckled. I held myself up with the bed. Now was the time to go back to the Demon Realm.

 I concentrated as hard as I could on trying to create a portal. It worked slightly. He just looked at me though. I lost my focus and slipped from the bed, trying harder and harder. But all that awaited me was a kind of BAM sensation.

My head felt like it was going to explode. I sat down, clutching my head in silence as the pain continued on as a war in my head.

My left eye twitched. It was like a bomb hitting a city. Like a microwave exploding. Like a small child crying and crying for hours on end. I was helpless, like that child, wanting to cry and cry. I groaned.

“You’re strong, but not strong enough.” He chucked as if it were funny. I guess from his point of view it was. “You should just give up. If you do you’ll be stuck in limbo. Waiting till your body rots and dies so you can move to the Night Realm.” He smirked.

I looked at him. He’d just given me the name to the ‘land of the dead’; The Night Realm.

“You’re a piece of work.” I said, giving in to the coughs and going into a fit.

Shifting from my sitting position to one arm supporting my weak body and the other clutching my rumbling chest. I began to cough up blood and my arm gave way. I lay on the cold floor holding my mouth as the blood spilled out of it.

He took a stride towards my quaking body on the ground.

Placing a hand on my head, the pain dimmed and the tiny portal disappeared. My whole world dimmed. What was he doing? My body started shaking.

“As I said, I can’t kill you.” He said, coming a little closer.

Then it went black.
