"You can't get away with killing us!!" The declaration echoed through the dimly lit room, met with unexpected amusement from the blood-drinking demon. He chuckled, a sinister sound that reverberated off the walls as if he'd heard the funniest joke in eons. "Relax, children," the demon drawled with a sickly sweet tone. "I have no intention of killing any of you. My plans are far grander. From this moment forward, the world you've known will cease to exist. You are to become the servants of others for the greater good." A heavy silence fell over the room. Cami scanned the faces of her friends, noting their expressions of confusion and terror. Some girls wept openly, while others struggled futilely against the burly men who held them down. Unable to suppress her rising dread, Cami's voice trembled as she broke the silence. "W-what are you t-talking about?" The demon's eyes glittered with a malevolent delight as he leaned closer, his grin widening. "Darling, you're about to become an immortal slave."
