    "I-I'm a what!? No way I mean sure I have a short temper sometimes...but I would never freakin murder someone." The nurse grimaced. "Well you see Ms. Greystroke, it's not really you doing these things." "What the hell is that supposed to mean!?"

"You are possessed, Ms. Greystroke, by a very rare form of demon." For once in my life I was rendered speechless. "This type of demon is called a Daevas. They travel through shadows and usually once they find their victim they rip them apart from the inside out." I shuddered, remembering how the Daevas had inserted the tentacle like thing in my arm.

"So...wait how come I'm not dead and ripped to pieces?" "Well...we're not exactly sure...but it seems as if the Daevas accidentally inserted some of its soul into you." "Ok...so can't you just get it out?" "I'm afraid that the Deavas has buried it's self so deep inside you that we would literally have to rip you apart to get to it, this would kill you."

"Ok...um so great I'm possessed by a demon...now what?" The nurse looked at me, confused. "Now what?" She echoed. "Uh yeah that's what I said. I mean am I just going to stay bound to this bed with glass separating my family and I until I die? Because if that's how it is I'd rather you just tear me apart and kill me."

The nurse rubbed her eyes. "Well because the Daevas only inserted part of its soul into you, you are only possessed by it for small periods of time. Think of it like your brain completely shuts down, but your body is still able to move. However, the fragment of the Daevas's soul becomes the new brain to your body and can control it while your brain is shut down. However, the Daevas can only control your body for so long. Eventually it has to let go of your body, allowing your brain to take control again. When this happens you are essentially 'waking up' and will have no recollection of anything you did while the Daevas was controlling your body."

I gaped at the nurse. "W-wait...if I don't remember what I did...you said I was a murderer....WHO THE HELL DID I KILL!? The nurse flinched when I yelled, I lowered my voice. "Please I need to know...I need to-to contact their families...and-and...."
The nurse looked down. "I'm terribly sorry Ms. Greystroke....you killed one of our nurses here, Nurse Mary....and...and your father."
