It's been a long day at work and I'm driving home at 11pm, I pull up to my small apartment block in Croydon, England. I park my 67' Pontiac GTO, grab my bag and climb out of the car and lock. "see Ya tomorrow baby" I mutter to the car while patting the hood. I walk into the building and get on the elevator, smiling at the person getting off, I press the button that says, "15" and the doors close. It takes about 2 minutes to get to my floor, as I'm getting off the elevator I bump into someone who's not paying any attention to where their going. "Jesus watch where you're going" I say with a scoff and roll my eyes and then realise who I bumped into "oh my god I'm so sorry for being rude miss" I say, as I realise it was my boss, mental face palming. "No, no it's all right I wasn't paying attention I would've reacted the same" she said with a chuckle. "Well I'm still sorry, but I've got to go I'll see you tomorrow" I say back with a small smile rendering about my cat that's been trapped in my apartment since 12pm. "Oh yes of course go on I'll see you tomorrow" she says getting on the elevator, I wave to her as the doors close. I begin running down the hall to my apartment, I stop quickness I spot the number on my door '117'. I fumble with my keys trying to find the right key, eventually I find it and open the lock on my door, as I turn on the lights I jump seeing someone sitting on my couch crying hugging and petting my cat. I stop at look at the person, or what I thought was a person, they look up at me and I see their eyes flash black and realise that they are a demon. I know what it is because I used to be a hunter until I left that world to have a "normal" life. I pick up the flask of holy water that's in my bag and walk over the demon, the man looks at me and sees that I'm holding the flask and he shakes his head, tears still streaming down his face. "No no there's n-no need for t-that I'm j-just sitting here" he says through sobs and snaps his fingers and my flask is gone, "um okay then what are you doing here" I ask him with confusion. He just looks at me and shakes his head again, hugging my cat up to his chest, "I just wanted somewhere to go and spotted your cat and saw he was here all by himself" he mutters sniffling. I walk over and sit down, far on the other side of the couch, seeming as he seems to be harmless at this precise moment. It's when I sit down I notice that there is a bandage wrapped around his head, "hey um.." "It's Tristan" "okay...Tristan, what's with the bandage around your head?" I ask him and he starts bailing his eyes out..once again " DONT EVEN MENTION IT, IT JUST REMINDS ME OF THE PLACE" Tristan screams through his tears. "Oh come on Tristan I'm sure it's not that bad..." "HAVE YOU EVER HAD ANY OF YOUR TEETH REMOVED" Tristan screams once again. "Wait a second you're like this cause you got teeth removed?" I question trying to stifle my laugh, not obviously not succeeding as Tristan sends me a glare that could rip through you. "Yes I am it's hurts and Its not funny" he says while clenching his jaw as I sit there laughing. "But I thought demons couldn't really feel pain" I say giggling "well this was extremely painful and I could feel all of it". For a while I just sat there thinking of how this all could be real and trying to calm myself down, "So why did you end up in my apartment?" I asked finally, "I don't know, I think I that because of the medication I was given it messed up my powers a bit so I just ended up here" the demon said while sniffling a bit. This was probably the weirdest day of my life, and that's saying something considering I was a hunter.
