 Rose's P. O. V

I woke up in my dirty bed from a 2-hour nap from a nightmare...again ever since this bizarre apocalypse started I usually wake up sweating and crying from nightmares. I shake it off and go to my stash of food. It's almost empty. I sigh.

"Ughh. I have to go out today." I moan. I close to the door of my stash and get ready to go out. I put on my special hoodie that belonged to someone very important to me. I give it a sniff to remember there sent. I sigh smelling to sent of sweets and cinnamon rolls. You have no idea how much I miss cinnamon rolls. I smile and walk out of my window. The apocalypse started two years ago. There was this virus that only affected the adults they turned into these mind controlled zombies. Not only that I think the universe got messed up too. Weird things have been popping up after the virus. I think that things from other universes have come to this one. I have been alone ever since the apocalypse started. Well, mostly alone. I walk on the rooftops and stop and realize I'm missing something, or I should say someone. I reach into my pocket and pull out a weird looking coin. It was green from paint with tiny splashes of red on it. It had a red splash right where the eye should be which made it look like the guy on it had a red eye. I flipped the coin and caught and flipped it on the back of my opposite hand it landed on tails. I roll my eyes and sigh frustrated. I repeat the flipping process and this time it lands on heads. I sigh in relief. A black smoke appears out of the coin and forms into a man with horns and a tail. He looked like he was swimming in ink. He was completely covered in black he kind of looked like the demon in that show disenchantment but bigger. I think it was. The apocalypse has not helped my memory.

"What do you want?" He asked in an aggravated tone.

"Nice to see you too Jacob," I said in an aggravated tone. Jacob is a demon, who lives in a coin. (Flashback time...)Like I said weird things have been appearing after the apocalypse started. I meet him a year ago when I was scavenging a house for food and other important things. You could tell that whoever lived there was obviously a satan worshiper there were super weird symbols but I just pretended they weren't there and kept on moving. I found a weird looking coin on the table that had a pentagram on it. I picked it up and kept it. I flipped the coin and it landed on heads. And Jacob appeared from the mist rolling his eyes obviously aggravated.

"Hi, I'm a demon that lives inside a coin. since you picked up the coin you are my new master until you lose me or die." He said in a monotone voice.

"Okay... Hello, my name is Rose, what's yours?" I asked the mysterious figure.

"Um, why are you so awkward?" He asked folding his arms.

"You're the first person? I'm going to go with a person. I've talked to in a year." I said laughing nervously. "Or at least someone who doesn't want to hurt me." I continued. He looks sad like he felt bad for me for a second then the look went away back to his normal bad boy look.

"Well ok then... Oh well, I don't have a name most of my masters just called me demon so." He said. I looked at him with a huge smile.

"Can I give you a name?" I said giving him the puppy eyes. He looked at me confused.

"Uh if you want," He said. I stopped to think, this was a very important decision. I muttered names to myself trying to go into my past. Then it hit me.

"Jacob!"I said. He thought to himself for a moment.

"Hmm... Jacob? I like it. You can call me Jacob then" He said with the first real smile I've seen on anyone in a very long time. (End of Flashback time)

"I was sleeping for your information." He said sassily.

"Jacob I don't need your sass we're going to get food. Were running low" I said.

"Well I don't eat I don't understand how this benefits me." He said crossing his arms.

"Oh shush com-" I started to stay when I heard a defining screech.
