The world is cold. The night is red as ever with the moon hoping to push out and shine this evening up. Tomorrow I have to leave. I have to find a sacrifice in order for us to survive this hell (quite literally). It's horrible here, being a demon is horrible, especially how others don't care about this place, we could destroy it and that's why we need a human sacrifice. I've never understood humans, how they choose to believe in us or how they think hell is bad, well I do agree with them but come on? Like yes it's warm all the time but you get used to it.

It's around 11pm when I hear a knock on the door. Wanna know the best thing about being a demon? You can teleport. That's right TELEPORT. It took me by surprise when I first did it, I was 8 then now having 9 years of practice I would like to say I'm a pro. I hover over half expecting it to be the company I'm currently working for but it turns out to be my best mate Brighton or bright for short (I'm aware it doesn't work). He has these amazing purple eyes and his hair as ever, is a massive black mess, he's about 6'3 and has been my best mate since I was born. His outfit is just an oversized white tee with matching white shorts.
"hey, just heard how your going to be saving us, anyways good luck, ur my bro I don't want u dead" he says with a happy yet also sad tone. It almost wants to make me cry. He's my best friend and I'll be with him to the end.

CHAPTER 2:ANDREW
I hate how mortals all believe that heaven is such a happy place full of happiness and rainbows when in reality it can kind of sucks. The weather is always cloudy so that means no tan and we have to help the mortals. Like for me I have just been given a scroll telling me I have to save this girl from this boy. It's going to be difficult for me and before you say it's just a girl you have to save, yeah that would be great if I wasn't romantically into guys. Yes I said it. I live in heaven and I'm gay, people don't like me much here as you can obviously tell but god actually is okay with it surprisingly. Anyways back to my life. I live with my dad (surprisingly you can get divorced here) he's nice and all but he's still so weird after I came out, he doesn't treat me the same and sometimes I wish I had never came out. Tomorrow I have this huge meeting about me going down to the mortal realm and helping that girl. I get given a profile of her telling me all about her hobbies and shit like that which if I'm honest I'm not interested in. It's about 12pm and my sister Maggie has just clambered into the door looking like a hot mess, it's kinda funny I can't like.
"Yo!! You good their mags?" I can tell a giggle is about to come out from my mouth
"I need an Uber to take me home" she says with a confusing tone. I can't help but laugh, it's hilarious and I can't stop laughing.
"You are home sis, your drunk now get changed and get ready for bed until dad gets back" I say with a smile on my face.
The stair creeks as she climbs up them. I'm close behind since today has been such a long day.When I eventually get to my room after helping my sister get into hers, I realise that mine is a mess, but of course I'm not going to tidy it, I have tomorrow maybe. My pajamas are just a simple white vest with blue and white checkered trousers. My bathroom is only next door so I go and brush my teeth and realise my hair is a mess!! God I need to brush it more, definitely before bed anyway. After brushing my teeth I head over to my bed which is quite literally a cloud, it's the comfiest thing ever!! My eyes drift closed as my vision is full of stars, good night world.

Chapter 3:Jamie
I woke up around 5 that morning. Today is the day I go down to the mortal realm and find that girl. I was given her profile last night, she has long jet black hair with blue eyes and has freckles covering her all over. She's the same age as me (17). I think I have this in the bag. All I have to do is just whip out my charm and have her wrapped around my finger. All I have to figure out is how to seem more human, for example: hide my wings, actually walk not teleport, and I'll have to find some contact lenses so my eyes don't look out of the ordinary to the human eye.
☺︎︎
I know it's late to start packing and getting ready since I leave in a couple hours, but if I'm honest I'm not taking much. All I'm taking is my guitar because guitar is just the way of life, my rings which I have plenty to choose and obviously clothes. My dad has some mutuals on earth who said I could stay with them so my shelter for the next couple of days is all sorted, they even found me a place at the same school that girl goes to. This is going to be my massive break through that I needed, a lot. I can finally prove my worth, I just hope things don't go bad, because most likely theirs is going to be someone to stop me, and by someone I mean an angel. Angels. Who likes them? They're so cocky and arrogant it's actually so irritating, you just want to kill them. This is why demons and devils are better, we say that whatever life you want, no one will judge you, besides the lord but his name in our mouths is our own sin. So if I do see an angel it looks like I'll have to yank their wings off. It's brutal I know but it's the only way to kill them. Let's just hope I never have to do that.

Chapter 4: Andrew
Today's the day. I supposedly save that girl. I know I'm not going to be able to do it one day because come on, I'm a novice at these scroll tests and I'm only 17 and if I'm honest I'm weak. I'm not that weak but I'm weak enough to know that if I ever get in a fight I'm crushed, that's why I'm hoping (fingers crossed) I don't run into a demon. That's what happened to my older sister, her wings were torn off in front of me. I had started dreaming about that day, wondering what would have happened if I wasn't a baby and refused to listen to her. She would still be alive if it weren't for me. Anyways where was I? Oh yeah, I leave in about an hour which I'm nervous about, I can tell I'm not going to mix well with the mortal species but I must do it. I would prove my dad proud, and prove to him that I'm not just a mess of a son.
What I'm taking is simple, clothes, sun glasses, lotion, my harp and obviously my jackets.i packed it all last night with the minimum energy I had left. My bag should be downstairs along with my dust which...has just come through the door.
I clamber out of my bedroom and straight to the stairs. I was correct, I can see the tiny package laying on our mat. In that bag lies the rest of my future, and my relationship with my dad. I really hope I don't mess this up. I need this to work. I need my dad back. Cause I don't think he realises how much I'm starting to miss my old dad.

Chapter 5:Jamie
This is it. No turning back now. I'm about to find our sacrifice and rescue hell itself and rescue me. The gateway down to the mortal realm has opened up, I see other devils and demons walking in and disappearing in an instant, it's mesmerising.
"Jamie, do we have a Jamie?" A man calls out. Shit that's me. I'm scared, should I be scared? I head on over to the line of people and see a small tubby man holding a sign containing my name and that I have to leave in
5 minutes. "Hi! I'm Jamie, so what do I have to do?" I say, hopefully with an enthusiastic voice.
"Yes hi, I'm Dylan I'm your dad's mate from the mortal realm, I'm here to take you so buckle up and hop on my back,"
I do as I'm said and hop on his back. His wings spread out. I realise how his wings are different. His are purple, a dark purple mixed with an amazing shade of red, blood red. We shoot down the gateway, and as we're almost there, well there's no turning back now.

Chapter 6: Andrew
I leave a note on the table for my dad and sister so they don't go crazy about me not being here. This is crazy, me going to the mortal realm, wow. I spread out my wings and fly. Flying for me is such wonder, and it also doesn't take me long till I'm at the portal to the mortals. God. This is going to be hell for me. A man is walking towards me and stops mid step. "Andrew, this if for you, it's that girls profile it tells you everything that you shall need to know so keep it safe,".
I tuck the scroll profile under my arm and dive head first into the portal.
The air is cool and the clouds are soft as they gently bash my face. I'm doing it, I'm going to earth. Wait,where am I landing? Shit. Landing. Grass! I can land on the grass, theirs a park nearby with only one person and their asleep so this is fine. I close my wings shut, I'll have to get used to that and close my eyes for the bumpy landing ahead. Earth, shockingly is actually pretty, although I can already tell the mortals, humans are such idiots.
One is trying to get the attention of a duck, which isn't a brilliant idea.
:)
Finally, after 25 minutes a taxi finally stops, I know I need to head over to the address B64 9TA Millhead lane.
"Where you off to mate?"
When was the last time he brushed his teeth? "B64 9TA Millhead lane and can you be quick" I pull out my phone as I get a mumble as an answer and I message my mum saying I've arrived.
