Chapter 6- Will

Chapter 6- Will

Okay, I'm gonna back the story up about three years ago. Trust me, the story ties in eventually.

Lets see, I was about fourteen at the time. It was the time I was going through puberty and stuff. Yep. Fun. Anyways, I was rather depressing then. Always walking the streets alone at night. I wasn't afraid. If anyone threatened me I would make sure a nice demon was waiting under their bed when they got home. Who am I kidding, I still do that when people bug me. So the story starts with me walking the streets alone at night. I always felt peaceful in the dark. The large crowds around me laughed and talked as I squeezed through them. The town was celebrating. It was Halloween Eve. Yes, we celebrate it. You celebrate Christmas Eve. We have a right to. I remember I was passing a dark ally when I saw something move in the corner of my eye. So out of stupid curiosity I went to see what it was. As I approached the creature I saw it was just a simple lower class demon. They have the appearance of a 3D shadow monster. Their small and light. Honesty, I think their kinda cute. Most people disagree. Those type of demons are like the rats of our world. Still, you don't normally go around scowling at them. They bite. And when they bite they inject you with venom. It can kill you or worse. It can make you bald! Okay, I'm lying about that, but the death part is true. So people usually ignore those demons. I smiled and sat down by the demon and patted it on the head. It looked at me as if I were crazy to touch it.

"No one likes you, do they? I know how you feel, bro" I sighed. The demon wrapped its long, black fingers around my arm and sniffed it. Just then a woman noticed me and shrieked.

"Get away from that thing, kid!"

"Why? It hasn't done anything to hurt me" I said not even looking at the woman. At that moment the demon sank its teeth into my arm. The woman screamed and threw her hands over her mouth. I smiled and kept patting the creature on the head.

"You- you were bit! Why are you smiling?" The woman gasped. I looked at the woman as said, "because I like it." Well, it was true. To people with black blood the venom is not poison, but like an energy boost.

"What are you, kid?" The woman scowled. I didn't answer her. I just watched the demon as I crawled off my arm. Black blood dripped onto the ground in front of me.

"You- you have black blood!" The woman yelped. "Demon! Your some demon! " the woman ran off into the street screaming. Soon people were running around in panic. I blocked all the chaos out of my head though. The demon looked up at me and cocked its head.

"What? They don't scare me" I said back to it. The demon made some clicking noise causing two more demons like it to creep out of the shadows.

"You've got friends I see" I smiled. One of the demons climbed up on my shoulder while the other two sat on my lap.

"I guess this means were friends right?" I said stroking one of the demons on the head. As I said that two men blocked the ally exit holding a pitch fork.

"Your the demon kid!" One of the men scowled.

"I prefer mysterious teenager, thank you very much" I replied. The men growled and stepped forward when the demons jumped off of me and charged at them. That caused two more, no five, or more demons to join them. Soon there was a large group of them. Some were larger than others and others looked scarier. The men fled in fear. I sighed and rested my head in my knees.

"Why are the innocent always convicted?" I whispered. "I didn't even do anything to them." The demons circled me making weird clicking noises.

"Okay, this is staring to get a little creepy, guys" I admitted. The demons disappeared in the shadows leaving one demon left who looked at me. It cracked a evil white grin then it spoke.
