Akumu sank down into the sofa, kicking his feet onto the coffee table and turning on the TV with the remote. Bearing his usual smirk, he relaxed, tuning into the newest episode of his favorite drama series "The Immortal and the Restless." An hour later, he dozed off as the episode ended.
"Hello? Can you hear me?"
Akumu's eyes flew open. Jumping off the sofa, he saw that his surroundings were now a bloody red, glitching and twitching before his very eyes. "W-who's there?!"
A shadow appeared, grinning wickedly. It was completely black and seemed to resemble a distorted rabbit, except for its glowing, white eyes. It slowly approached the demon, opening its mouth to reveal white, sharpened fangs. "Don't you remember?"
"R-remember what?" Akumu whispered, staring into the thing's mesmerizing eyes.
The shadow seemed to laugh, claws sprouting from its hands. "You abandoned me. You left me to die in that accursed body. And now... I've come to take back what's mine."
Akumu snarled, finally recognizing the shadow for who he was. "You're rather funny... I'm not going to fuse with you ever again. I was released, you were caged. We're not the boy we used to be."
The shadow's grin was unwavering, yet its eyes shifted to a deep violet. "Remember what he said? He would put us back together. And now, I'm just fulfilling his dream."
Akumu got into a defensive position, his eyes glowing a bloody red to match his surroundings. "I'll never return to our miserable life before. After all....nobody would miss us anyway... Michael."
(Omg I can't write but welp here's another chapter. Don't worry, I'm working on the comic and redoing the cover, which will both come out soon. Bye.)
