Chapter Five
My Turn
"God it Burns!" I screamed as Reed slammed a cross onto my chest my nails lengthing and turning black as I screamed and kicked "I'll KILL you if you don't Get that Damned cross off of Me!" I was thrashing around as Reed held me down the demon in me screaming as the cross burned him...I was inside of my mind looking at the Kalipso Demon wrecking everything in his path corrupting me narrowing my eyes I took of my cross necklace and ran at the Demon he turned and screamed a blood curdling scream that struck my body with a wicked force slamming me into a wall. Crying out in pain I fell to the floor the Demon leaping onto my body and racking his nails against my chest I screamed and kicked his face sending him flying and landing on his back.....god help me I thgought as I got on top of the demon and started to punch the cross over and voer into its face its black blood spraying over me burning my skin.
The Demon screamed and grabbed me by the throat then slammed me down on the ground getting on top of me sinking his jagged teeth into my shoulder black poison seeping in my wound I screamed out as the poison flowed through my veins...growing weak the demon picked me up and threw me then caught me and slammed me down onto the ground screaming. Outside of my mind the demon was thrashing and kicking Reed cursing loudly as he slammed the cross onto any bare flesh he could see "I'll KILL YOU! I'll FUCKING KILL YOU!" black blood flowing from my eyes as I cried out in pain.
The poison was to much as my body flung itself away from Reed and slammed into the counter then flew into the sky but sharply slamming back down onto the tile ground red blood and black pooling on the ground around me as I screamed and tore at my flesh my skin cracking as Reed grabbed holy water and the cross picking me up he yelled out me "Mika Hang in there! fight it! God Damn It fight!" running out of the building and out onto the streets my body writhered in pain as the black blood around my nose and mouth bubbled and popped staining and burning through Reed's skin. "Ow God damn!" Reed cried out he poured some holy water over my face as I screamed in agony the holy water seeping into my skin and burning my flesh. the poison flowed into my lungs and started to drown me from the inside out and I choked and gasped "Reed!" coughing black blood and red blood it burned the concrete street the cars squealing and spinning out of control as Reed ran faster his legs taking him back to the cemetery looking down the hole he prayed for me to hang in there.
Reed with what was left of my tortured mind and body leaped down the hole into the world below the very thing he escaped from in the very begining. "Reed! HELP ME!" screaming I choked and threw up poison over Reed's arms Reed grimaced and hissed in pain when you lied me down on the ground. My body shooked and moved of its own accord as I arched up my screams echoing throughout the space as my eyes turned all black. My nails digging into the ground making it shake as I threw up more poison.
Reed called out for the Malfric Demoness out of desperation. "Pandoraium! I call out to you to aid me!" a loud crack and lightening flashed across the endless sky she appeared....and I turned my head my body still shaking and heaving up poison whimpering I arched up and screamed again my legs kicking and tensing to the point were I grew weak and tired but the poison would not ease and the pain rose me up to heights of madness. Pandoraium's necklace was a skull on top of a cross that covered her belly button her black wings spread out as she grimaced looking at me.
"Reaper....what happened to this boy?" she said as she flew over and knelt down before me her blonde hair long and flowing as her rosy purple eyes looked into my black pitless ones. "He was harvested by the Kalipso Demons...five of them." She turned her head her eyes wide then she looked back down at me as I screamed again my spine tensing and stretching being contorted into some wicked. Screaming my hand reached out and grabbed her arm my eyes flashing back to blue for a split second.
"Help Me." I whispered my eyes flashing back to the pitless holes they were as I screamed my ribs breaking under the pressure of the poison taking on a new form. "I'll try my boy." She said with defiance as she started to mutter an ancient language the Kalipso Demon knew all to well that was known as The Clensing....thunder sounded and lightening flashed as I screamed the Demon being ripped out of my body through my mouth....I couldn't breath couldn't think.....it seemed like my life would end in a matter of minutes.
Seconds turned into minutes...minutes into hours as I gaged and choked the pain was excruiating but I held out for as long as I can, the Reaper bending down and wiping the persperation from my forehead I grabbed his hand and bit my lower lip keeping in a cry of agony as Pandoraium started to stich up my cuts while murmmering healing enchantments and spells. Reed grew worried as I arched up the Cleansing purifing my soul from the evil that tainted it. "Reed...my body hurts." The Reed frowned and gently placed his hand on my chest and a sudden rush of air started to make my pain ebb away I looked at him as my eyes turned back to a nice blue as I closed my eyes and feel into a deep sleep.
Pandoraium looked up catching Reed's eyes and she beckoned him away leaving me lying there asleep in hushed tones she spoke with him "Reaper....sorry....Reed....what in Heaven's name do you think you are doing with this boy? hmmm? you know damn well what could happen to him......Grim Reapers are suppose to watch over the souls who end up here." Pandoraium gestures around the dark and gloomy place. "They do not help the souls, unless...." Pandoraium's eyes sparked with a knowledge and she started to shake her head profusly "No absolutely not you could not possibly think you have a chance with this boy! Your a fool! a confounded, dumb, son of bitch! What makes you think you can love this boy!?!?!?"
Reed hung his head not looking at her shame and guilt boiling, burning deep within him.... "I did not mean for me to fall in love....but you know that their so only one....one part of two souls....I was empty until I found him. Pandoraium I'm already going to Hell......judge me all you want. But do not judge the boy....he's innocent." Pandoraium sighed and nodded hugging Reed and looking back at me. "So he really and truly is the one?" she said and Reed nodded. She sighed and kneeled to me a scar appearing on my chest. "Marked....he will always have that.....for the rest of his life."
