Creature of the Shadows

Where am I? Who are you? What am I doing here?

Flug's pov

   I was in my lab in a machine that I had just recently finished as I did some repairs when I heard the lab doors creak open from behind me.

    "Demencia if that's you can you please leave I'm in the middle of something here." I said not even peeking out because it was a bitch to get in here and I don't want to squeeze through again unless I have to.

    Silence. 

   "Demencia?" I called out. 

   Silence again, but this time the lights in the lab shut off. I was now surrounded in complete darkness. 

   "Demencia this is not funny! Turn the lights back on!" I said moving towards the little opening that I had used to get in here. My eyes still haven't adjusted to the extremely low light making me basically blind. 

    I crawled out of the machine and started to make my way to where I thought the light switch was. Suddenly there was a growl and I saw two big bright red eyes peering at me from the area in which the door was. I frozed.

    I tried to call out for BlackHat but I couldn't find my voice. The beast started to make it's way over to me. I tried to will my legs to move but like my voice they didn't seem to want to cooperate.

    The thing was only a meter or two away from me when I had finally screamed. But screaming was a bad idea cuz beast took this as it's chance to catch it's prey. The prey being.... Me....

BlackHat's pov. 

    I was finishing up the last of today's paperwork when I suddenly heard a scream. A scream that sounded oddly like Flug... Wait. 

    That was Flug's scream! Is he alright?! I stood up forgetting about whatever I had been doing previously and rushed down stairs to the first floor. 

    When I finally got to the lab I saw that the lights were off and the doors seemed to have been damaged. I quickly turned on the lights. 

    In the middle of the room was blood, but other than that there was no signs of anything that's alive in the room. But that was the problem. If Flug's not here than someone, or something took him. 

    I ran over to the blood. It wasn't the normal red blood that a human has, instead it was a navy blue that almost looked black. I put some on my finger and sniffed it. It smelled like regular blood. It couldn't have been Flug's, right? He's a shadow daemon, it's almost impossible to make one bleed. But then again Flug did say that there were ways of injering a shadow daemon.

    I liked it off of my finger and sure enough it tasted like Flug. Before you ask, I can tell who a being is by their blood. And this blood here is definitely Flug's because it tastes of nothing but science and worry. Which is basically Flug.

   Now I'm worried. Something entered my home without setting off the alarms AND they were actually able to injure Flug. 

    I heard footsteps coming from behind me. I looked up to see 5.0.5 and Demencia in the doorway. 

    "Where's Flug?" The lizard girl asked.

    "Someone took him."

Flug's pov.

   "Ugh," I groaned as I finally became consist again. I looked around. I was in a cage of sorts. "H-hello?" 

   All that was heard was a fire in a fireplace in a corner. I was in the middle of the room. There was a fireplace as previously stated, a door a window and a few tables, and a lab coat was hanging a hook on the wall, other than that the room was practically empty. 

    I looked down at myself. My lab coat had been taken off, just than I realized the lab coat that was hanging on the wall was mine. My shadow mark was on my arm for some reason. I looked at it closer when I noticed the navy blue liquid on my arm. Blood. A shadow daemon's blood. My blood.

    Whoever brought me here knew how to hurt a shadow daemon such as my self. 

    "Is anyone there!" I called out wanting answers. I heard footsteps coming from the hall and very faint talking. I listened closer.

    "I got him sir! I really got him! It was much easier than I thought it was!" A voice said seeming to be proud of itself. 

     "Silence! I'm already tired of your voice!" Another voice snapped. Suddenly the door to the room opened.

     Two creatures stood in front of me. One had the same red eyes that the creatures who I had seen in the lab. It was only about 4 feet tall maybe even less than that. It had a pretty skinny body with long bunny like ears except without all the fluff, it also had a long cat like tail. It had very little fur, which was only on it's chest, other than that it had pinkish wrinkly skin kind of like a hairless cat. It also wore a collar that had a chain attached to it. There was little tag that I couldn't read from where I was at. It of coarse had those big bright red eyes that seem to bore into your soul.

    The second creature was much taller, probably around 8 feet tall. It stood on all fours. The hind legs being much shorter than the fore limbs. it's back arched down similar to a hyena. It's legs were similar to how a goats would look. It had a mask covering it's face. It had a lot of fur that I couldn't tell whether it was fluffy or rough.

    "Hmm, it's awake." The taller of the two spoke. "Remo go let it out." 

    The smaller creature ran up to me and unlocked the cage before running back to the taller creature's side. I hesitantly walked out.

     "W-who are you? And what am I doing here?" I asked.

     "I am Melville, the kind of daemons. This is Remo, a lower level demon." The bigger creature stated. "And I'm aware that you are shadow daemon, but I do not know your name."

    He had a deep voice that would sink feer into almost anybody.

    "M-my name is Flug." I said a bit nervously

     "Flug, hmm. Well anyways as from what I've heard from Remo you know quite a lot about your kind. And I want to hear what you know." Melville said.

    "Well I don't know too too much but I do know more than most humans, and BlackHat do. Wait. What about BlackHat? He's got to be wor- erm mad that I'm gone."

    "BlackHat? You mean the prince of demons?!" Remo said. His voice was pretty high pitched and eerie sounding.

    "Wait, he's the prince of demons!?" I exclaimed shocked at this news.

    "Yes, BlackHat is indeed the prince of demons and is the oldest of 5 brothers and 1 sister, making him the next king of hell." Melville stated as if that was a well known fact.

    "He never told me this!" I exclaimed feeling slightly sad that he didn't trust me enough with this information.

    "Maybe he thought you already knew." Remo started.

    "I highly doubt it. I've seen the feature king of demons quite a few times and he seems to be the kind of guy to only tell the world what would be enough to make him feared. And he probably didn't tell you because he was either waiting for the perfect time or thought that you being his, employee if I'm correct, that you didn't have the right to know." Melville said.

   "Well anyways let's get to the questioning."
