As I sliced through the demons I felt my self slowly dying. Each breath a sulfurous struggle. I could faintly hear Skylar screaming from the store. "I can't die here. I won't die here!" I said choking on my blood. Shakily standing up I drew Areketa, but as i stood up I was flung into a gas pump. "Gahhh fuck!" I yelled as a sharp object impaled itself into my leg. "GIVE UP BOY. YOU CAN'T WIN" The Demons shrieked. Pulling random stuff out of my bag looking for my Ambrosia I found a lighter. "Say Cheese you wrinkled whores" I said lighting myself on fire. They jumped back but the flames didn't hurt me they just surrounded me in a thin veil of flame. "You still wanna go?" I asked spitting flaming blood. I began limping towards them my sword and hidden blades sliding down. "WE CAN TELL YOU WHERE YOUR MOTHERS KILLER IS!" They said bargaining. "No. What's dead should stay dead I know this" I said slamming my sword into the ground causing a flaming circle into the ground burning all the demons to ash. I fell and began puking blood, cuts showed up randomly. "I'm bleeding out" I said falling into a pool of my own blood.

*Skylar*

"NATHAN! GET UP FOR GODS SAKE GET THE HELL UP PLEASE!" I yelled from inside the store banging on the glass. For a gas station out in Queens it was completly empty. I shrieked with Joy when he got back up but my heart fell as he pulled out the lighter and flicked it on the flames engulfed him.... Wait he wasn't burning! His dad must have given him some sick powers! As he slammed his sword down I saw the demons go Bye Bye but he was hurt badly. I looked for something to break the glass and escape as I saw someone walking towards Nathan.
