OMG OMG OMG THIS IS THE VERY END OF THE FIRST SERIES I'VE EVER WRITTEN! I THINK IM TEARING UP A LITTLE!

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Anna's POV

I had left before the fighting could get worse. But when I popped back into the scene, it was much worse than I ever thought it could be.

Incubus. On the ground. His black demon blood spilling past his lips as he sputtered and tried to pull a dagger out of his chest. And Starlight. Simply standing above him, a ghost of a smile on his lips. I knew I had no feelings for Incubus...but...

I instantly ran over to him, scraping my knees in the process when I knelt down to him.

"You can die?" I asked, my voice quiet because I was afraid the jerk would hear me choking back tears, and laugh.

"I didn't even realize...up until now." He croaked as his black demon blood trailed from his smirking lips, down to his chin and neck. The veins under his pale skin made black webs as he continued to die. I couldn't believe it, but...I didn't want him to die. It was an incredibly stupid thought, but it held truth.

"You stupid, idiot demon." I scolded, hot tears welling up in my eyes. Incubus coughed, his own blood choking him. I propped him up higher, putting a hand under his head to help hold him up. He smiled, the whole inside of his mouth stained black from his blood. But he didn't laugh at me for crying. Instead, he reached up with a shaky colour-less hand, gently wiping away the tear that streaked down my cheek. I stared in shock, but it was real. He was smiling up at me, but his smile wasn't vicious or wicked like it always had been. It was soft and pleasant and...human.

I breathed out in astonishment. The moment he was dying was the moment he became human. His hand fell from where it had been slowly tracing the track my tears left. His red eyes which had always been so cruel and full of insanity, were closing.

"Incubus..." I breathed, my throat stricken with emotion that I didn't even know I had for him. When had these feelings for him even developed? I was going insane, wasn't I? Maybe it was just pity I was feeling for him...

Starlight's faint gasp broke my emotional haze. I looked up at him, my eyes narrowed with anger and confusion. Hesitantly, I let Incubus go, standing up to face Starlight.

"Explain yourself!" I screamed. "Why did you do this!"

"So you do have feelings for this...this nuisance." He observed, pulling his eyes away from Incubus' still body. He stared at me, so intense I felt squirmy. But I didn't let him shake me. It was too late though. I couldn't have denied the stupid comment now - even if I wanted to. He smiled at me, but it was pointed and wicked. He took a step closer to me, and I tensed.

"Why?" I questioned instead. Another step closer.

"Because he was the only thing - the main thing, I know now - that stood between me and my glory."

"What glory? You're a demon." I growled out, taking a step forward to show Starlight that he didn't scare me. "I didn't know you were so shallow and stupid."

"I don't believe that I'm shallow and stupid. More like...conceited and self-serving. After all, like you said so yourself: I am a demon." He grinned wider. His yellow eyes flickered down to where Incubus lay cold and silent, and I saw that the emotion within them grew more wild. Like a raging fire getting out of control.
