Not Easy Being Me

Not Easy Being Me: part 21

Wilford stopped in his tracks, his eyes furrowing in confusion, staring at the glass figure that continued to prowl forward. "Your body?... But." He looked around Dark's void. He knew that this place was within his mind, within his body, which was his body right now. "But this is Darky's body."

"How do you think he got it?" it questioned, looking down at its glass claws, using its other claw to sharpen the edges. "Demons themselves can't form a physical body all on their own." It stopped in its tracks looking up at Wilford with a grin. "No... Demons get a body a different way... They get them by lying... deceiving their way in and pushing the true owner out!" it then looked around, gesturing to everything. "This... Was my body." it snapped pointing to itself. "And Dark took it... Morphing it into his image, WHILE HE CAST ME OUT! LEAVING ME WITH THIS!" it snapped before looking at its claws, a grin forming on its face. "But I'm here to take it back... And the only thing that is standing in my way... Is you." it growled as he pointed at Wilford.

Fear began to build inside of Wilford as he back up, but the twins stood in front of him, glaring at the glass demon, their auras flaring.

"You're not gonna lay a finger on him!" Celine growled, clenching her fists.

"You have no power here, demon," Damien added, clutching his cane tightly when the glass demon only chuckled.

"Really?" it whispered as it waved its claws, watching as Damien and Celine flew back away from Wilford, landing on the ground about 12 feet away. It then turned back to Wilford who was terrified. "Dark's not here to protect his little prisoners... Now." It grinned snapping its claws open. "Back to the matter at hand."

"NO!" Damien yelled as he got up trying to run at it. "DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH-OOF!" Suddenly a glass wall formed around Damien and Celine, causing the mayor to ram into it. He shook his head as he opened his eyes pressing his fists on the glass wall in confusion before looking at Wilford in fear, banging on the glass, trying to yell for it to stop, but the glass appeared to be soundproof.

The demon continued to walk forward, causing Wilford to back up. He went to turn and run to find help but was stopped when the creature was suddenly in front of him, grabbing him by the neck and slamming him into the wall. He gasped, trying to pry its glass hands off of him, staring into its corrupt eyes in fear. "Aww, you poor thing. I almost feel sorry for what I'm about to do... You can blame Dark for this."

"Why... Why are y-you d-doing this?" Wiford choked out, trying so hard to pull its clawed glass hands off of his neck.

The demon's smile fell, glaring at the pink ego before slamming its first into the glass wall. "ARE YOU DAFT?! HAVE YOU NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION!? DARK MADE ME THIS THING! HE TOOK MY BODY, LEAVING ME NOTHING BUT A BROKEN MIRROR! A COUPLE OF SHARDS OF GLASS, TO SCROUNGE TOGETHER TO CREATE THIS MONSTROSITY I CALL A BODY, SO I WOULDNT DISAPPEAR INTO OBLIVION!" the creature huffed as it calmed down, it's angered eyes staring into Wilford's confused ones. "He took everything from me."

"N-No." Wilford shook his head. "Darky is a lot of things, but he would never take anything for his own benefit... And even if he did... We would never keep that from me."

The creature started to chuckle, shaking its head with a grin on its glass face. "Seems like he's keeping a lot of things from ya." it began, before its eyes cast over to Damien and Celine, who was still banging against the glass. "Like how he's keeping that fact that you can see the twins anytime you'd like from you."

Wilford froze, staring at the demon. "... What?"

"They can split from Dark," it explained. "They become something that is between spirit and human and is able to walk in your plain..." it then glared at the twins growling slightly. "I almost envy them."

Wilford starred from it to the twins, who were staring at him. "But... If they are able to split, then why haven't they?... Why hasn't Darky told me?!"

"You'd think... Darky would ruin his only chance of having control?" the creature spit, turning back to Wilford. "Without those two, the body would be unstable, showing his true form, showing what he truly is... A deceitful demon... A monster."

Tears began to form in Wilford's eyes as he stared at the twins, who were shaking their heads, screaming no on the other side, indicating that they can hear their conversation but he couldn't hear them. He wanted to deny it... To believe that Dark wasn't like this... But if he wasn't... Damien and Celine wouldn't be here.

"Oh don't start with the tears," it growled as it grew out its claws once again. "It won't save you..." it then pressed its claws on his neck, drawing blood, causing Wilford to hiss in pain.

Celine watched the scene, her anger beginning to rise as her red aura started to flare, causing her brother to stop, staring at her in fear. She suddenly let out a high pitch scream, causing Damien to cover her ears, watching as the glass wall shattered into pieces. After that she ran at the demon who stared at her boredly, cracking its neck, making chains form out of nowhere, latching on to her to keep her in place.

The demon then turned back to Wilford. "It was a pleasure meeting you, Wilford Warfstache." It whispered, about to press its claws down on his neck to end the job. "It's a shame we won't meet again."

"NO!" Celine cried out, pulling against the chains. "DON'T HURT WILLIAM, PLEASE!"

The creature froze, its vile grin falling as it slowly turned from Wilford to Celine who was crying looking at the pink ego. They slowly turn back to Wilford, who stared at them in fear, as realization struck them... Realizing that this man was...

"... Colonel?" they whispered pulling their claw away from his neck as Wilford stared at them in confusion.

Wilford stared at the creature for the longest time watching as their eyes dulled down, turning into a warm grey... He knew those eyes... He once knew someone with those eyes and they were once known as... "D... D.A.?"

They looked at their formal friend in shock shaking their head. "I... I thought you were-."

Suddenly a loud screeching filled the air as Anti pixeled right on top of the creature's back clutching a knife in his hand. "GET OFF OF HIM!" Anti snapped as he pulled the creature back.

Wilford fell to the ground with a loud thud, landing on his chest. He shook his head, looking up at the D.A. watching as the green color returned to its eyes as it tried to claw at Anti, who was trying to stab it, still on its back.

Celine watched as the chains disappeared, causing her to run to Wilford, her brother following close behind. She fell to her knees trying to help him up, but her arms went right through him. "Wil?! Wilford are you okay?"

"That... That's the D.A.?" he questioned looking up at Damien, who only stared at him in sadness.

Damien shook his head, closing his eyes. "Not anymore."

Wilford then looked back at Anti and the D.A. who was trying to claw at the glitch.

D.A. screeched shaking, and thrashing trying any way it could to get Anti off of it but to no avail.

"You've messed with the wrong glitch, bitch!" Anti growled as he stabbed it right the head, the knife sticking out as it screeched, falling onto its knees, before landing on its stomach. He hopped off of the glass demon, knowing that it would be back up at any moment, so he didn't waste any time as he grabbed the paper, opening it up and chanting the spell that would bring Marvin here to finish the job.
