Ch. 2- The Normal Life Ends

Akira wakes up. It's Saturday. Akira yawns and gets up from his bed and makes his way over to the living room and turns on the TV. The news of the school incident are all over the news. "Heh...I guess I have really done it, huh..." Akira smirks. Akira checks the time. "Mom didn't come from the shift yet....It's sad that she has to work the entire week just to make us two live. I wonder everyday about my father. Who killed him....Wait. Now I can get revenge with my powers...But I would need to find out who done it." Akira thinks to himself when he is suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door. Akira goes over to the door and opens it. A beautiful woman stand in front of him. "Ye-..before he can finish the woman squeezes his right forearm. Akira feels like there is a part of his soul being squeezed and contained. "What are you doing!?" Akira yells. The woman withdraws her hand. "I am Himari Takahashi. You are Akira Kage, right?" the woman says with a cute voice. "Uhh...Y-yeah..I am. Why did you squeeze my forearm?" Akira blushes a little. The voice of the demon in his mind says: "You know I can read your mind, right? I didn't expect a teenager to be so freaky. You should stop. The image your imagining right now is awful. Why are you thinking about fucking her? She is my enemy. She is dangerous. Don't talk to her!" the voice finishes. "I know you signed a contract with a demon. I don't know to which demon yet...but I need you to go with me." Himari says. "N-no.." Akira answers. "It's super hard sayng a no to this gorgeous of a woman. Akira saying this to the demon's voice in his mind. "She squeezed your mark. She wanted to contain me. She thinks you are dangerous. Don't go with her!" the voice answers. "So that's why she did that immediately I opened the door...she expected me to attack her, I guess..." Akira answers to the demon's voice. "Is everything alright, Akira?" Himari asks. Akira blushes a little. "O-of course, Miss..."..."No need to call me miss. Just call me Himari." Himari says playfully. "Don't go with her! Why do you think with your hard wood?" the demo's voice rings in Akira's head. "Okay I will go with you, Himari!" Akira says. "Great. Just follow me into the car. We will notify your mother about this." Himari answers. Akira follows her into the car. Akira and Himari sitting in the back. A driver already in the car. "So ho-"...Himari suddenly puts her hand on Akira's shoulder. Akira falls unconscious. Akira opens his eyes finding himself in an unknown location. "Where am I?" Akira says with a worried tone. "Now you have done it..I told you to not talk to her. You are the worst! Now they will get to know which demon is inside of you and because... because it's me they will kill you! Stupid teenage boys only thinking with their wood! You think she will give you? the demon's voice asks. "Shit...I should ha-"....the door of the room swings open. Himari walking in. "Hey, Akira." She says with her usual cute tone. Akira's worries disappear. It's like when he sees her. He immediately goes into heaven. "Hey, Himari!" Akira says a little excited [literally]....Himari shows a syringe. "Why do you ha-"...Himari pierces Akira's skin where the mark is. The syringe picks his blood. She pulls out the syringe and gets him a plaster over it. "We have the mark and now finally the blood." Himari mumbles to herself. "Himari." Akira says. Himari not answering and just walks away from the room by the door she came in with. Closing the door behind her. "What's wrong with her...." Akira questions. After a few minutes Himari comes back into the room and immediately squeezes Akira's forearm. "Hey!" Akira yells. Some unknown people with weapons and a man with a large scar over his eye come rushing into the room. "You. Akira Kage are sentenced to death!" the man screams.

In the moment the man's scream ends. A hand appears from behind him and pierced Akira's chest. Tearing his heart from his chest....Akira finds himself in the winter lands again. "Why I am here again..?" Akira says. "We are both dying, Akira." the demon says. "It was a demon's hand...thus it can damage me too. We are in my mind again. Time ticks here very slowly. We need to come up with an idea how we should stay alive." the demon continues. "I don't think it's possible..." Akira says with a sad tone. "That bitch is holding your forearm. You can't switch into me. We are cooked." the demon finishes. "You said you are only in your half form or something, right? Can't you just transform into your full form?" Akira asks nervously. "You don't understand. Well let me break it down for you. Basically. When a demon signs a contract in exchange for letting the demon stay in your mind a body. Just like you did. The demon gets into it's half form. Without a contract or contract not involving being able to stay inside a living being. The demon is in its seed form. A demon gets into its full form if a living being kills it. The being that killed it will become the demon. And also it can get into its full form if it fully consumes a soul of its host, overpowering their will. This is a phycological battle, where the demon tempts the human with power or exploits their weaknesses. For the third. Completing a specific ritual or event." the demon says. "So I need to kill you, huh?" Akira says with deadly intentions. He looks at the demon with deadly eyes as the cold winter wind blows.
