Stella was in her room as she waits for Striker and Crimson to arrive back with me captured alive or at least waiting for a call back from them that the job is done. She started to become impatient as she looked at the clock.

"What's taking them so long? She asked herself as she pours some whiskey in her glass to stay calm.

After a few minutes, she started calling Striker first, but no answer every time she called. She even started calling Crimson and still no answer from him. She started to feel really aggravated and impatient until the front door rang.

She immediately went out of the bedroom and went down the stairs fast without tripping on her skirt and answered it. She was confused when there was no one at the door. She looks down and jumps in shockness of seeing Striker's and Crimson's lifeless bodies lying on her doorstep.

"The fuck?!" She shouted as she jumped back.

"Now!" Charlie shouted from a distance.

Cherri jumped out of the front bushes of the yard and started throwing her bombs through the windows and started exploding as a chain reaction in the house. Stella locked the front doors and shouted at Crimson's remaining mafia members in the study.


"Get off your lazy asses and take care of those fucktwits destroying my home!!" She shouted at them.


The demon sharks immediately grabbed their riffle and guns as they headed to the front foyer and waited for them to break in. Alastor blew the front doors open and started throwing debris at the mafia for the other to come in for an advantage. Charlie ran in as she was in her chaos demon form as she started brutally killing a shark.

Angel came in with both of his revolvers and started firing at them as he helped get Cherri inside as she started throwing bombs aggressively for fun. Blitzo and Stolas ran in as they worked together on killing many sharks that they encountered.

Stella knows that she needs to bail as she grabs the grimore and tries to escape from the back door, but fortunately, Vaggie and I decided to ambush her to get the book.

"Stay here."Vaggie told me as she kicked the door opened and tackled Stella to the floor.


Stella fell on her back as she tried to get Vaggie off her. The grimore fell on the floor as it was close for me to grab it. I hesitated a few moments as I was feared for some reason. Vaggie threw a few punches at Stella's face until Stella started pulling on her hair and hitting her back. I looked at the book and finally went in and grabbed it.

"No!" Stella shouted as she kicked Vaggie into the wall and slammed the back door shut before I was able to make it back outside.

She grabbed the book, but I pulled it back from her with all my might.

"Give it back! You little shit!" Stella shouted as she pulled it back hard.

I lost my balance as I fell backwards and lost my grip. I got up fast and punched her hard between her legs. She collapsed and dropped the book as I picked it up fast and tried to make a run for it to the front foyer. It was hectic as there was so much chaos as guns were fired and shark demons were getting shot down. I saw Stella coming as I saw her pissed off look as I looked back for a second.

I went up the steps and ran down a hall and ran into a bedroom and hid under the bed. I stayed quiet and silent as I heard Stella's footsteps coming closer and closer. I was afraid and terrified as I hoped she wouldn't come into this room. I started to feel different for some reason as some evil spirits came out of the grimore and started going inside me as I had the book in my hands for too long.

I tried to resist the evil corruption as I kept hearing the voices of the evil spirits telling me to kill, or encouraging me to do horrible things. I ignored them as I attempted to push them out of my mind. An evil spirit grabbed my arms and made me open the grimore.

"No. No..." I said as I tried to resist them.

Stella opened the door, as she pulled her dagger out from her side as she moves the bed out of the way.

"Found you." She says with an evil smirk as she was about to stab me.

I grabbed her wrist and I turned it the wrong way. She screamed in pain as I looked at her with a severe rage as I threw her across the room. She landed into a wardrobe and I grabbed her dagger from the ground. I wasn't myself as the evil spirits took control of my soul and made innocent self vanish. Stella was stunned by the impact and the moment she saw me coming. She feared me. Something that she has never done before with anyone. I grabbed her by the throat as I stabbed her in the shoulder deep. She screamed in pain as she struggled and tried to fight back.

I pulled the dagger and was about to finish her off. Stolas grabbed me from behind as he made me drop the dagger. I struggled and tried to fight him as I wanted to kill Stella for what she put me through. But I wasn't myself since the spirits of the grimore corrupted my heart and soul as I handled the book too long.

"Stan! Enough.This isn't you." Stolas says as he had a good grip around me as he opened the grimore fast and pulled the evil spirits out of my body forcefully as they went back in the book before closing it.

I felt drained and tired by the process of the evilness leaving my body. I started sobbing quietly as I was terrified of what happened to me.

"It's alright child. Just rest." Stolas says as carried me and stops for a sec as she looks at Stella.

She was still alive, but in pain by the stab wound I gave her. She feared me as I almost killed her, even though I was only a mortal child to her. Stolas gave her an angry stare.

"Even though you tried to kill me and this child, luckily I decided not to finish you off since I'm no cold blooded person like you. You deserved to be feared. you could've been dead if it wasn't for me, bitch." Stolas says before he walked away with the grimore and me in his arms while leaving Stella to suffer in pain.

The ordeal is over, I'm able to get back home to the living realm tomorrow. I just hoped my family was alright as they were worried sick about me for all this time that I went missing. Even though I thought this would be the end of this, it was only the beginning as Druce is up to no good as he was fully taken over by the corruption of the copy of the grimore that Alastor left behind by accident.

Druce wasn't himself anymore as he committed many murders on innocent people, and enjoyed doing it after killing his ex-girlfriend first. Jack was unaware of what danger he was in.
