We all have our own demons. We fight them everyday of our lives.
Take Gavin Wells for example, a senior in high school who has some... issues. The biggest one being the school's most popular kid and giant asshole, Scott Fields. Everyone loves Scott, except for Gavin due to years of torture and bullying. Gavin has put up with his shit for years, but is ready to let his demons out on Scott.
In doing so, however, he may release real demons on his town as well.

At the Fields of Fire and Blood
The world is dying. Heaven and Hell have broken and collapsed, creating a post-apocalyptic landscape that is part purgatory, part platonic world of ideas, blighted by the horrors of the human mind. The sun lies dormant in the east, atop God's tower, while the west is plunged into darkness and haunted by all that lives there. There is no day and night cycle, nothing grows, nothing dies, nothing changes, unless magic is involved. Angels hunt creatures for their blood, to feed it to God so he can finish gestating. Demons kill and destroy aimlessly, their origins inexplicable and unknown. Stranger beings wander the ruins of what's left of the world. Humans need not eat or sleep, caught in a state between life and death. They cannot die or be born naturally, but they can be killed and they can be made. The few that survived with their sanity somewhat intact have locked themselves into warded cities, but their protections are feeble and often ineffective. The Order that united them is long gone, broken into factions known only by the sins for which they have fallen. The Houses that protected them are crumbling, falling into ruin as their members were culled down by angels and demons, as well as their own mad quest to save the world; the Pilgrimage, a vain attempt to steal into Eden and murder God himself. Soon, only the Scions will remain. Those that were left not due to merit, but because they were the last choice for being heroes. Those whose memories and minds are as damaged and eaten through as their world. Those who agreed to take on the mysterious Archons within their bodies and, through that contract, had ancient relics and rituals passed down to them. They converge onto a long forgotten neutral ground, trying to save themselves. A heroic journey through a nightmarish wonderland. A pilgrimage to God's tower, to make the world whole again. To cleanse the world of the horrors infecting it. To kill the God who will doom them all with his birth.Complete

The inhabitants of these spaces are demons, who are born of fear and anger, and thirst for it. These nightmarish creatures have one goal: slaughter the human race, and take over the world. Enter the forces of light. To them, genocide isn't that cool. They're like, "How about you NOT do that, 'k?"

However, he soon learns that the fight runs much deeper, and the stakes are much higher than he thought.Complete

Jake was just a normal teenage boy. Normal problems, normal friends, even a normal school bully. Until the dream. Jake has been having nightmares for several weeks now. Always very similar. It isn't until one night when he's sucked into the nightmare itself that His life will never be the same. ( I've been working on this for a really long time. If any readers or writers in the community want to give suggestions for edits. The first half of the story give or take was written a long time ago. So it may not follow the same writing style. I think the characters have evolved really well in the story and I'm excited for feedback. )Complete
