SHE

Good vs. Evil

    As with everything else, there are two sides to every coin. SHE knew that the spiritual realm itself had two of these sides; good vs evil. Other than the mask, SHE hadn't ever come face to face with pure unadulterated evil before. That all changed one night when SHE was in bed; SHE hadn't fallen asleep yet but her eyes were closed somewhat. Suddenly, SHE felt like SHE couldn't breathe, something was in that room with her! Her eyes popped open wide as SHE struggled for breath and that's when she saw it.

The thing was darker than the darkest corner of her room.  It obscured the glow in the dark stars and planets on her bedroom ceiling. It was at least 7 feet tall and it was pressing down on her chest like a bull. SHE couldn't move an inch. SHE was petrified! As it moved its head closer to her face SHE could hear its voice laughing evilly inside of her head. It was a low guttural laugh that sounded like a mixture of the lowest baritone imaginable and the low groan of crunching metal.

It was featureless except for what appeared to be horns sticking out of its head. It had a human-like shape but other than that, it was blackest form SHE had ever seen. And just like that as SHE thought SHE was going to be crushed, it vanished and SHE was able to breathe again. SHE blinked a few times and then slowly got out of bed, looking around her room. SHE opened the door of her bedroom and looked around but everyone was sleeping soundly and peacefully. No one had the slightest idea the absolute terror SHE had just gone through.

SHE sighed and retreated back into her room and after getting into and hiding under the covers, fell asleep instantly because SHE was completely exhausted. What was that? SHE knew all about shadow people and demons but why was it there? What did it want from her and how had it found her in the first place? SHE had no idea if that was the last time it would visit and was hoping that it was. Unfortunately for her, it came back a few nights later.

The feeling was the same. SHE felt it crushing her body and was unable to move at all. It was completely on top of her only this time when it put its head next to hers, SHE heard the following words ground out like shredded glass in her head:

"When I am done with you, I will go after your mother."

    Then it laughed that grotesque noise again but it had made a huge, epic miscalculation. If SHE had no strength and was pinned beneath it both times, when the thing threatened her mother, something inside of her broke. SHE found unnatural strength and pushed herself off of the bed to sit up, essentially moving the demon off against its will.

    SHE looked at it in the dark as it stood to its fullest height and told it off in very colorful language. SHE clicked on the light and it was no longer visible to the human eye but was still very present as the air hung very heavily in the room. SHE could hear it still breathing in her head. It was obvious it was very angry but not as half as pissed off as SHE was in that moment.

"You disgusting, vile piece of demon shit! You will never touch my mother, you hear me?? I don't care if you are invisible, if you ever come into this house again; I swear I'll kick your ass back to whichever hell you came from any way I can! I am a child of G-d, I am more powerful than you think and you will never harm me or my family! Now get the fuck out of my house! You are banished from here never to return! LEAVE NOW!!!"

    SHE mouthed those words as SHE felt it retreating and felt herself growing stronger until SHE had gotten out of bed completely and it shrank away from her before disappearing completely. SHE then walked to her mom's bedroom and put her ear to the door to make sure her mom was alright; slow, deep, and sound breathing was heard inside. Satisfied, SHE went back to bed and turned off the light. SHE fell asleep that night feeling as if SHE had fought an immense battle but SHE had won. It was her first head on battle with the forces of pure evil, but it wasn't her last.
