The demons that walk amongst us

Chapter four

The devil's P.O.V

It's was strange on the surface, not at all like I remembered. There were people in cars that made no sound, their phones were much smaller, no longer the size of bricks, and, the most confusing thing, no one had a mullet, and I only saw elderly people with perms. It was strange.

This is not at all what I remember last time I came up here. It's was a while ago though...

The last time I visited before time when everyone had mullets, everyone wore white powdered wigs and breeches and heels. The women's wigs must have been a meter tall in some cases!

Enough, I must find the source of the power. For once I agreed with myself and cleared my mind to focus on the energy. Eventually, I picked up a its trail. Yes! Finally!

I followed it until i came to a dull looking building, with a trail of what looked like teenagers and young adults, trudging around in the playground. There were older ones too, although, they seemed to have some power over their younger peers.

A massive sign stood outside the building. It read in massive letters;
Birchwood high school. 
Teaching above and beyond.
Headmistress, mrs Janet Brullhard.

What a drab place, so grey, not at all how an education centre should be. The children should be happy and raring to learn, the just look miserable... and physically too big to be children, but mentally...well,  from how their behaving...

A sudden burst of energy alerted me to the fact that something else was here, the exact something that I currently searched for.

A young teenage girl with ebony black hair, worn in a braid, a white top with no sleeves, only straps, and a pair or tiny black shorts walked past me with two boys and a girl, who were laughing and joking. The energy was so intense that I nearly passed out.

I've found it! Or her to be precise. She must be the one producing all of this energy, but she looks normal to me, she appears human.

I couldn't understand it. Humans don't generate such energy, supernatural creature do, but not humans, so how did this human girl produce such an energy field? I couldn't have been any of the other teenagers around her, they weren't expelling energy, but she was.

I had to find out why, so I changed form, I was a fly on the wall, literally. This way I could watch her and try to find some answers. Although, by the end of the day I had found none, I was only perplexed more.

In one her classes a boy, who was quite clearly attracted to her, set off a fountain with a brown, fizzy liquid and some white pellets.

The old woman who stood at the front of the room whilst he did this, was droning on about clouds, was known as 'miss' or 'Mrs Little' or 'science granny' by the teenagers, who I understood to be students of the school. I presumed that the adults who lurked in the corridors, shouting at girls whose skirts were too short, were teachers, and that the students didn't really like them.

I followed the girl and found out that her name was saphira, and the others that she hung around with were Alex, Connor and Kate. Connor and Kate were related in some way, I believe that they were siblings.

They all walked down the road after they had left the school building. They ended up at a house that seemed to saphira's. The outside was painted a light blue colour, and beds of beautiful, well looked after flowers were planted in the garden that lay before it, and ran along the length of the path that led up to the black door.

They entered and I managed to get in before the door was closed. Saphira's mother began cooking what looked like pastry with tomato and cheese on top. Saphira and the others went upstairs and played with what looked like really advanced computers, they weren't block sized or massive, they were playing games on them, a thing that was only possible on arcade games machines last time I visited the earth.

They eventually went downstairs to eat the 'pizza' as they called it. The boy know as Alex must have eaten enough of the stuff to burst. I was constantly having to fly to avoid saphira's mother's swatting hands. Apparently she didn't like flies.

Later on her friends went home and she went to bed. As she lay there, there was a strange sensation I couldn't quite understand, almost pulling me towards her. Eventually it went away, but I knew that I had to find out more about her, everything I could.

I flew out of the window and back down to hell for the night, before setting off again in the morning.

Sscilla was acting strangely, almost suspiciously. "What have you been doing?" She asked me. "Nothing that you need to know about Sscilla." I replied. She raised an eyebrow.

"Did you find what you were looking for master?" She asked. "I did Sscilla, and I plan to go back tomorrow to figure out what to do."
"Why would you need to do that?" She asked. I could tell that she was probing for all of the details. "BECAUSE I WANT TO!" I bellowed. She shook. "Ok master." She said simply and walked away.

I went back to my chambers to rest. I will need it with all of the running I will be doing tomorrow. I thought.
