Shane was just like every other average boy: cheerful, lively, ambitious. However, Shane's bright future is snatched from is grasp by the cruel hands of fate. He was badly beaten up by an unknown assailant when he decided to use a deserted alley as a shortcut. Each wave of pain brought a rising flood of screams, none of them heard.
Shane had stubbornly clutched onto life, and with his dying breath he had begged for anything, anything at all that might give him a way out of his death sentence. A solution was given to him, and like any innocent child would, he took it.
He had survived. He had been reborn. For now he only has one goal, find out who had almost killed him that night, and end his life.
With only one clue, a calling card, Shane sets off, ending his search with a conclusion he never wanted.
The classic AU of "demon" Shane Madej.
Shane is not a demon himself, but he is rather a medium that can see spirits, ghosts and supernatural entities that others cannot. He can feel the aura's of other's emotions and the slightest changes in the environment. He can communicate with spirits and scare them away. Demons, however are not so easily fooled. He can feel the chance of human emotion in the atmosphere and has physical reactions to it, such as pain or simple feelings throughout his body.
He spends his ghost hunting days trying to protect his human co-worker and friend, Ryan Bergara, from the real spirits around him by trying to hide it from him. However, when Ryan goes missing, it's up to Shane to find him.
