The Angelic Devil

Improvement

Chapter 10

"You were not supposed to kill her!"

"Holy shit, we know! You told us to get her here unharmed, and so we did!"

I heard the faint sound of people arguing, it probably came from another room. I tried to look around, but I noticed my eyes were closed. As I tried to open them, I realised that they were numb and that I couldn't locate them. Neither could I locate my arms or legs, I felt as if my mind was the only things existing, my body was nowhere for me to find or to feel.

"So explain why she has a fucking hole in her shoulder!"

The memories hit straight back into my head. Well, I had a hole in my shoulder because those bastards poured hydrofluoric acid on it, which is pretty damn acidic. They had also stuck something into that fucking acid wound, so what the hell had they been expecting?

I got furious. Humans broke into my flat, humans wounded me, humans kidnapped me, and I was going to kill them all. Humans were the real bad creatures, not demons. Demons only existed to punish the wrongdoing humans, but we were still marked as the bad guys.

The anger made me feel a bit stronger; a demon's best weapons were hatred, darkness and fury. Right now, I had them all.

I finally located the eyes on my face and opened them slowly. I wouldn't want anyone to know that I was awake if I wasn't alone in the room. The room was really dark, but since my eyes had been closed all the time they didn't need time to adjust. I noticed that I was alone, and the only thing that I could spot was the chair that was screwed to the floor, with me placed on top of it with two handcuffs that were stuck to the chair. I tried ripping my arms free, but after a few failures, I stopped trying. They must've had been blessed by someone or something, probably a fallen angel, normal handcuffs wouldn't have stopped a creature like me.

"We may have gone overboard, but she is alive! And didn't you say something about her being able to heal really quickly?"

"Yes, I did, but do you really think the fucking hole on her shoulder will heal that fucking quick?"

I recognized the voices that were arguing behind the only door in the room. I identified one of them to be Stephan, best friend to Adam, the boy who got his lungs ripped out by me. The other one's were a bit harder to identify. I knew that none of them were The Phoenix's voice, and to be honest, I didn't even think that he was around. I couldn't smell him anywhere, not even the slightest. I could've been wrong though. 

"I want you guys to go and bring her to me now, remember to inject her with this if you don't want her to attack you."

Stephan and some other boy mumbled something before I could hear approaching footsteps. I quickly closed my eyes and tried to make my body look as numb as possible.

The door opened, letting some light in, as three boys entered the room. I could hear their heartbeats and how they were walking towards me, slowly. They were afraid, perfect. Human's were so easy to get when they were afraid.

I felt a warm hand grab my left hand, and someone unlocked the handcuff around my wrist. Were they actually that naive? They were scared for their lives, but they still didn't get that I could rip their throats out without them even realising?

"Maybe we should inject her with this before unlocking the other handcuff?" I heard Stephan say.

"Yeah, maybe we should", another boy answered.

I groaned in my mind, why did they have to make it all so complicated? They were all going to die anyway! Were they actually thinking that I wouldn't try to kill them instantly? Also, what was a bit of drugs or poison going to do me?
