Mark POV:

We run through the thick forest. The sun still high in the sky, but the trees make everything look dark. Rachel guides us past the trees, warning us every time if there is a low branch or a root that could catch our feet. Where is she taking us?

"We're almost there."

Confusion fills me as we enter an empty clearing. The only thing that fills the emptiness is a large tree that stands in the middle of it all. We all slow down to a walk as we get closer. I frown as a handle sticks out of the dark wood. It rusted and old.

"It's in here. I'm not sure if this will actually work. The only way to get to them is if they allow us."

Me and Wilfred look hesitantly at each other. Fear and worry flashing in his eyes. I just hope it works. I look back at Rachel as she starts pulling at the handle. It moving slightly and making a small gap. Not big enough for an adult, but maybe for a child. She pulls a few more times until there is a large gap. Rachel wipes her forehead before entering the darkness.

"Are you sure this is safe?"

Wilfred doesn't answer my question as he follows the demon inside. I gulp down my fears before entering as well, darkness consuming me. The only light is from the small opening that leads outside.

We slowly make our ways down some stairs, it getting darker and darker. Finally, we make it to the bottom. A small light appearing from under a door. Rachel slowly opens it to reveal a room. Red markings cover the floor and the only source of light are the candles that are placed around the room.

"I'll see if I can take you to the other side, but I'm not going with you."

We both nod before stepping onto the fading markings. To demons, these might mean something, but to us, it's just red paint on the floor. Scary if you think about it. Rachel could be sending us anywhere and we wouldn't know until we got there. I look at Wilfred as he says our last words.

"Let's get this done and over with."

Shadowmash:

I quickly rush my way towards the attic. Fear and sadness running through my veins at the sight in the mirror. I knew that bastard couldn't be trusted. If Anti just listened to me.

'Stop complaining and just hurry up.'

I frown as Aaron's voice cracks in the middle of his sentence. I sit down and start the process. Hope flickering inside me as my surroundings change, but it disappears when everything clears. My eyes widen as I see Anti being flung around the room like a lifeless doll.

I growl before charging at the emotionless demon. Claws extending and wings appearing. I quickly plunge my claws into his back, a gasp escaping his lips. From the corner of my eye, I see Anti plummeting towards the ground. I pull my claws out of his back before running towards him. Catching the demon before he crashes into the concrete ground.

I gently place him down. His eyes connect with mine, tears appearing in them. I am going to kill him. I turn around to be met by his red eyes. Them staring straight into my soul.

"Sean."

Anti POV:

I hold my breath as I hide behind a pillar. His footsteps echoing through the air as he walks around. Him taunting me as he cooes my name. I look down at my blood covered hands, it drying slowly. This wasn't how I wanted it to go.

I suddenly feel a small pull, someone wants to come here. Someone could get Sean out of here. If I can get his attention then the other person could get Sean out of here. I don't want him to have to keep watching this.
