"I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home

Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for"
She had been about to die. She was sure of it. She sucked in air.
She had been yanked through the air like a marionette on a string. She opened her eyes and screamed. A gloved hand smothered her mouth and she stared.

He had no face, only skin that looked like a white sheet pulled taught over bones.
He spoke. His voice reverberated around her.
"You owe us a favor..."
I based this story, "Demon", off of the songs "Control" and "Hold me Down" by Halsey. A girl wakes in a pitch black room knowing that if she wants to leave the monster-infested house she has to find a fortune for her faceless savior...
The song lyrics are not my own and belong to Halsey!! The rest of the story, however, is mine :)
