Tainted Hearts

Three Minus One = Two

The werewolf transformed, her whole being filled with killing intent. She hated them, she hated the spirit, she hated the demon. This whole time, she had been saving the lives of her family's killers?!

She sharpened her claws, the supernaturals in front of her didn't move an inch.

She hated them.

But she couldn't bring herself to kill her former friends.

The werewolf's posture faltered and she cried again, muttering along the words 'hate' and 'why?'
She then ran away, leaving the two.

Alex was in a clear state of disability within his mind, he stood up and land a punch to the demon.

"WHY?! WHY WOULD YOU DESTROY HER HOME?!" He shouted with rage, he knew he was in fault too, but clearly he was panicking.

"How would I know it'd lead to this?! How'd I know if Denny once lived there!!" The demon argued. "And stop acting like I'm the only one to blame, YOU were there and you could've stopped me."

The spirit was lost in words, he gazed down drowning in thoughts. The spirit sat down again slowly, his gaze fell to the dancing fire.
The demon only watched, this was all too sudden. He gazed upon where Denny once was and the direction she had ran off to, he felt a throbbing stab in his heart in which he gasped softly.

Was this guilt? Why now he had it? If only Time was earlier, all this would had been prevented.

"Do you even feel an ounce of guilt?"

"I do."

It was a firm statement, but somehow it still sounded unsure.

"Wow." The spirit's tone was distrustful, he forced a laugh. "Hahaha! You do, totally."

The demon was in no place to defend himself, he admitted defeat silently and sat down. Their minds were screaming at them to chase and apologize to Denny, but their hearts knew that Denny deserved more than them.

The spirit had lost his ability to cry long long ago, he could only projected himself in emotions. The demon stood up frustrated and ignited several fireballs before throwing them to the trees, burning them in the process.

"... The hell are you doing..?"

"Releasing my emotions, what else?!"

"By burning trees?"

"Aaagh!" The demon groaned, he pointed at Alex aggressively. "What now?!"

The spirit held his hands up in surrendering motion, he cocked his head. "Ehh? Don't ask me... But, I think for now, you should get a rest."

"I don't nee—"

"Nnnope! Have you forgotten? I can feel your exhaustion."

Andrew's eyebrow twitched, he clicked his tongue.

"Whilst you're asleep, I'll think of something..."

The demon couldn't argue, he was tired especially after the.. reveal with Denny minutes ago.

"... I hope she'd be safe."

The demon sighed before lying down, he pondered of the time he was thrown out from hell to this very second before the demon slowly drowning into his slumber.

Meanwhile with the spirit, he gazed upon the sky between the gap of the trees and its leafs or branches. He could see the shining crescent, surrounded by thousands of stars, it was a rare view but for the spirit, had he seen it many times.
