Megan and Jackson read deaths gate behind the story pages where all the drawings and painted Fates of its victims.
They read and discovered that if a demon touches the book after he has found a host his rights a a demon who owns a human will be reset.
Jackson looked at Megan "wait so Jonathan has no control over me anymore?"
Megan said "I guess so, that's what the book says"
"Let's go out and burn it, so demons can't cross into the living world anymore, WAIT! We should try and get rid of your demon too!"
Megan looked at Jackson like he was crazy and waited for him to respond hoping he would figure out why what he said was stupid. She said "Jackson Asmodeus is who I am, if you get rid of her you get rid of me, meaning I will die." Jackson felt really stupid now he laughed a bit and said oh yea.
They went out side to the road and walked down into the narrow steep hill, there was nothing around behind there house, there was a long winding road and a muddy and Rocky ditch next to it on each sides.
While Megan and Jackson were waking a little further with a box of matches and lighter fluid, Jackson stared to feel weak to his head and fell to the hard ground.
"Jackson!"
Megan yelled, she shook Jackson and tried to wake him up, but he was fast asleep and knocked out.
Megan heard whispering voices coming from behind her, she turned around and saw the book on the ground. "Deaths gate" she said, she got the matches and lighter fluid and threw the book down to the ground in the rocks and popped off the cap on the lighter fluid.
The whispers got louder and louder as she drenched the book in lighter fluid, it began to get really windy where she was the trees roaring loud from the wind whistling between the leaves. She pulled out the box of matches and tricked a match she held it above the book, getting ready to light it up.
She heard voices screaming loud "Don't! DONT DONT!!"
She dropped the match and watched it fall to the book and it exploded throwing her back into the road big clouds of green smoke and lightning bursting like a never ending explosion everything was loud wind blowing dust everywhere fire. She put her hand up shielding her eyes trying to look at the book, she took a deep breath and breathed out and it all stopped. Time stopped, everything froze, she saw a dark figure walk out of the dust and ashes, it was a faceless figure.
Megan asked "who are you?"
The figure was looking straight forward but standing right in front of Megan. It looked down at her jerking it's head down to her face and grinned with a big smile where his teeth could be seen. Megan jolted back, the thing spoke "I cannot tell you who I am yet but I am Someone you know I am someone you know very well, I am someone... I am... Manny people."
Megan looked at him or her in a confused way, and said "what your saying doesn't make any sense"
The thing grabbed Megan on her shoulders and looked her dead in the eyes, and said "Megan listen you must leave Jackson you must leave now! Great pain and loss will be bestowed upon you and me and your family and his." Megan pushed him or her away and said "no.. I won't leave Jackson I love him... I can't just leave him.."
Him or her sighed and stood back up and said "I understand but know the consequences of your decision and choice, you have been warned"
He or her raised his hand and snapped his or her fingers and the explosion continued just as it paused, it swirled into a tornado and was sucked back into the book and the book shut. Complete silence all could be heard was the birds and a sound of a car that passed by Megan, she looked back at Jackson. He was sound asleep she didn't want him to suffer she didn't know what to do, she was so confused she just had no idea.
She stood up and walked up to the book where she was blasted back before and laid her hands above the book afraid to pick it up. She took her hands back and looked at Jackson to pick him up and Jackson woke up very slowly she helped him walk back to his house. Later that night Megan didn't care anymore about being home with her family cause they never cared where she was as long as Jackson's parents didn't know she was at home with Him, it would all be ok.
She dragged Jackson Into his room and propped him up against his bedroom wall. She noticed he was acting a bit different he didn't ask any questions like where was he or what happened he just laid there with his eyes wide open and hands palms facing up breathing with his mouth open like he stoned. Megan locked his bedroom door and knew his parents were asleep so decided to stay up and watch him. "Jackson are you ok?"
Jackson didn't say anything he just stared at her. Megan sat in the middle of his room and watched Jackson until she fell asleep, she woke up and noticed Jackson was gone from where he was. She was scared to turn around she was afraid he would be standing there, his door was opened and she heard a crash from down stairs. She got up fast and ran down the stairs and around the corner to where the kitchen was, she gasped and screamed Jackson was standing face above the sink with cuts and rips in all his clothes on fire! Bleeding all over and still moving, Megan was terrified he would turn around. Jackson heard her scream and turned his head and looked straight at her his eyes were gone and his body was singed black and bony all over you could see his rib cage and everything. He took a step towards her and Megan ran back up stairs, Jackson began to run after her sizzling noises from the flames on the dry floor could be heard repeatedly after each step. She ran ups stairs and into his room again and closed and locked the door and went into his closet and shut it. She sat down and held her mouth drying to calm her breathing.

She listened silently and heard a scorching crackle noise and heard the door break down.

All could he heard was the fire begging bigger and bigger brighter and brighter and, she saw the closet door catch on fire and a hand punch through the door and grabbed her throat and the door burned down she let out a horrific scream as Jackson's burning hands singed her neck his face got closer to hers and began to burn her skin he took a breath in and whispered "you will look just. like. me." His last words were so loud she woke up!

In the same spot she was when she was sitting in front of Jackson everything was a dream, Jackson wasn't breathing with his mouth open Anymore, his hands were hugging himself and he was laying on his side with his eyes closed. Megan was scared, she didn't know what the dream meant, she remembered what he said.
Before she woke up.

Instantly when she thought that Jackson woke up, "what happened?" Asked Jackson.
Megan looked at Jackson, her face express~less. "I don't know"
