"Who-who are you?", Doku asked. "I am the person who messaged you. About the demons. You are cuter than I expected.", she said, looking up and down Doku's body. "My name is Mayu, and I am a protector." "What is a protector, exactly?", Doku asked curiously. "The protectors are a group of people who can see the demons, like you. What we do is try to keep them out of this realm, to keep them from harming others." "How do they get here? They must have some way.... And where do they come from?" "They travel to different realms by portals, which are basically universal highways. Where they come from exactly, we are not sure. They are obviously hellish creatures, so... Hmmm. I'm not so sure." Mayu sat on the bed scratching her head. "Well, why did one attack me?" "That's why I came here. You are very special, Doku. You have been chosen as the Key. The Key is the only thing that can stop the demons invading other realms once and for all. It can lock the portal from which they come to us from." Doku responded ,"So, how... How do I lock it?" Mayu thought for a moment. She did not know. Neither did the others, and that was a big problem. "You will only be able to learn when the time comes." Doku said ,"Well thats crappy. How do you think I am supposed to do it? Just walk in there and be like, lock yourself up, fool!" Mayu felt offended, because she didn't know. "I'm sorry, but I have to get going. I will come back and teach you more, like how to fight, but until then, don't do anything stupid." And in a puff of smoke, Mayu disappeared.

The phone rang and startled Doku. "Hello?" It was Levi. "Hey dude! It's Levi. You have to hear about the kiss. It was amazing!", and Levi just kept going on and on about the kiss he had with Niomi.

Meanwhile, Niomi was at her friends house talking with them. "...The thing is, when we kissed, there was no spark." "Nothing?", her friend said. "Nothing at all. And, he is a good guy, I like him, but I don't love him. He kinda feels like the brother I never had..."
