Eyes

Angelic Demonic

Dan snickered at Phil. Phil was afraid and could hear Dan getting closer. His feet barely moved as Dan was looking for the scared man.

Phil couldn't help but to think,

This would make one hell of a story time.

Phil got up and scurried to the window. At the window Phil kept a secret knife behind the curtain.

-Flashback-

"Phil. What are you doing?"

Phil looked back from the curtain to see Dan standing at the doorframe with a bowl of cereal. Phil walked up to him and took out a dry piece of cereal.

"Hey! That's my cereal!"

Phil was grateful to have Dan become sidetracked. He didn't want to tell him that he was hiding knives around the house, and a pistol in one special room.

Dan didn't know this, but Phil was paranoid. He was always on the look out. Dan always figured Phil liked indoors because he was lazy. No. Phil liked indoors because it made him feel safe.

Dan came back into the living room and Phil jumped on the couch and grabbed the remote.

"Danny, how bout' some Anime?"

"Phil.....you know me so well."

-End of Flashback-

"Danny, I don't want to hurt you!"

Phil was shaking. All he could see was glimmering purple eyes creeping closer and closer to him. He was trying not to breathe so heavily, so he could hide better. The knife in his hand trembled and quaked. He didn't want to stab his best-friend.

He loved Dan like a brother.

But,

This.

This thing.

It is NOT Dan!

Phil got up and stabbed him in the shoulder. Dan fell straight to the ground and started twitching. Phil tried to stay strong. How did that kill him?

It didn't.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha! You think it's that easy. This shoulder can be replaced."

But, the heart can't.

Phil heard a voice inside his head. Dan didn't seem to hear a thing, and wasn't fazed at all. Phil, standing by a mirror, saw a blue smoke circling around him.

A hand appeared on his shoulder, and time seemed to stop.

Dan was still.

The wind and other noises were dead.

And the blue turned into a man. But, this man was an exact replica of Phil.

"What's happening?"

Phil asked his doppelganger with concern clearly in his voice.

"Dan's demon has over ruled his Angel. Every human has a Demon watching over them, and an Angel. Dan's Angel has been trapped inside of his heart, and his Demon has taken over almost completely. To fix him, you need to stab his heart."

"WHAT!? I WOULD NEVER HURT DAN LIKE THAT, IT WOULD KILL HIM!"

"Phil, calm down. Dan will be safe. He won't feel a thing. Only the Demon will be in pain. Dan will scream and scream over and over again, but it's not Dan. Dan is just a host. By stabbing his heart you will open up a passage for the Angel trapped inside. The Demon will be weakened and will have less power then ever."

"Can I kill the Demon for good?"

Phil was hoping for a yes.

"No"

The blue angel looked down and shook his head slowly.

"All humans have Demons, otherwise they would be Angels. Even if the Demon is destroyed, they will only be gone temporarily. Once you're an Angel, you can't lie or sin. When your Demon  returns temptation will take over. If you sin, you die. Phil, all you need to do is stab his heart. That will bring your friend back."

Time still paused, Phil walked up to Dan and stabbed him. The moment the knife entered his chest time unfroze and the screaming started. He yelled and yelled. Phil had to look away and cover his ears so he wouldn't give into the fear of killing his best-friend.

Soon the screaming stopped and Phil went over to Dan. His face lifeless and his body quickly turning cold, Phil feared the worst.

He went over his body to find a heart beat.

Nothing.

He tried to find a pulse.

Nothing.

"Oh no!"

Phil started crying and weeping over Dan's body.

Dan was dead.
