It was night and the wind was silent, everything was calm and quiet. A kid, around sixteen years old, laid asleep. He was slightly tall for his age, and had long red hair. He slept comfortably on his bed, almost as if he hadn't slept in a bed before. His room was nearly pitch dark, but the moonlight kept it lit. He woke up slightly and look around. He looked confused as he looked around as if he was looking for something.
"What time is?" He asked himself.He looked out his window to see what it looked like. It was still night and no noises were heard. As he continued to look around and saw bright red eyes peeking over a wall by a house not too far away. He rubbed his eyes to see if his mind was tricking him, but he still saw them. The red eyes darted across the road, the figure was more visible now. The kid's eyes widened in fear, it was a demon. he quickly ran to his parents room and began shaking and yelling about the demons being there.
"Go back to fucking bed Ray." The Father groaned.
"I'm telling the truth!"Ray yelled
"Listen to you're father." His Mother commanded.
Ray was angry and took matter into his own hands. He quickly grabbed his dad's crossbow and ran outside. When he got out there, no demon was in sight. He felt like and idiot and thought maybe he was delusional. He listened for any sound, nothing but chirping crickets. He sighed in disbelieve and was about to walk inside. Then in the corner of his eye, he saw the red eyes again. He quickly turned to face it and was frightened. The eyes were getting closer and closer to him. His hands began to tremble in fear, he was about to drop the crossbow and run, but his body was frozen. He felt the breath of someone behind him, but he didn't dare turn around to find out who it was.
"What are you gonna do with crossbow?" The voice behind him said.
Ray was still shaking in fear but began to speak.
"N-nothing." Ra responded.
"You sure, cause it looked like you were going to shoot my friend."
"No, I-I wasn't." Ray said while stuttering.
The man behind him began to laugh a little. The man then grabbed Ray's head and turned it to his direction. His face was up to Ray's, he was showing his bright red eyes.
"You know what I am?" He asked.
"Ye-yes." Ray responded still stuttering.
The man gave a huge evil grin.
"Then you know what I'm about to do." He said.
Ray began to run away as fast as he could. He couldn't fight back, not against a demon. Another demon jumped in front of him.
"Don't run little boy." She commanded.
This demon had bright red eyes as well and had green hair. It was tied into a pony tail and it shined in the moonlight.
"Leave me the hell alone!" Ray yelled.
The demon just smiled at him, she looked like a serial killer.
Next thing he knew, a house went up in flames. The demon began to laughing like a maniac.
"Why us?" Ray asked her.
"We're just getting rid of you pesky pricks so we won't have to deal with you." She responded.
People began screaming and more houses were burning. Ray stood there as people were being slaughtered by the demons. They were being split in half, heads flying, bodies burned to ashes, it was a living hell. Ray then ran to his house to see if his parents were alive. When he got there, his house was on fire and his parents were screaming in agony.
Mom, dad!" He screamed.
He got no answer other then their screams of horror. Tears pored from his eyes as he fell to his knees. The same demon from the beginning went up to him and was grinning.
"Poor child, want to join them?" He asked while chuckling.
Ray looked up to the demon and anger took over his body. He rushed at the demon and punched his face.
"Die you son of a bitch!" he yelled.
His punched didn't even move the demons face. The demon's grin turned to annoyance. He grabbed Ray and threw him to the floor. Other demons surrounded Ray as he was on the ground.
"Now it's time to kill this annoyance." The Demon said.
The demon's right hand became a giant claw. the demon was about to crush him but an arrow shot threw his head. The demon fell right on top of Ray. The demons that surrounded Ray retreated. Knights came in and began attacking the demons.
Later in the night, the sun began to appear breaking the night sky. The fires were extinguished, bodies were covered. Ray looked at his dead parents, he though of all the things he wished he changed. One of the knights went up to Ray and lied a hand on his shoulder. Ray turned to face him and the knight gave him a sad look.
"We're deeply sorry for your parents, the King has allowed you shelter in the castle till we can move you to a new location." The knight said.
"How many survived?" Ray asked him.
"Only six, including you, survived." The knight responded.
Ray didn't know what to think about, he was depressed.
The six remaining survivors were put into a carriage and were driven off to the kingdom. Ray was happy that he was alive, but wished his parents were here with him.
