2024-10-29 19:42:56The demon woman wanted to ensure she still had a hand in this fight, no pun intended, so she enacted a plan that would mentally haunt me for the rest of my life, even after my death. I was still down on the floor with the demon woman trying her best to gain control of me without her hands. To my left I could still hear this odd noise, something I had never heard before. It reminded me of bones snapping and guts smushing around.
The demon boy sighed as if he were disappointed in his mother, he still was not over their fight and really wanted to prove a point to her. He wanted to be the one in charge, the one to finish this mess and annihilate the humans and the beast that accompanied them. His mother had already let us know that she had bigger plans, plans to fill the Earth with demons and eliminate the human race from this gracious land.
Todd and the beast had realized that they were being approached by the demon boy and took a

Crashing into the stairs resulted in my lower back bending in a way that it was not naturally supposed to go. A searing pain shot through my entire body as the hand that grabbed my foot inched its way up my leg. Its grasp gave off the feeling of urgency, as if it were a human climbing up the side of a mountain after realizing he was the lone survivor of a commercial plane crash.Looking down, fighting through the pain my lower back was putting out, it was Zombie Wayne the Uber driver. His mouth was now gnashing together, looking for flesh to sink its teeth into. There was nothing I could do to stop him; my back injury had debilitated me and prevented any form of retreat. I closed my eyes and looked down at my inscripted hand. It truly was my last resort.I said, “Please work. Please work. We can

Watching the yellow glowing pendant soar through the air under the guidance of my glowing orange palm beam was a sight for sore eyes to say the least. All of our lives depended on that pendant landing in Todd’s fat sweaty grasp as he leaned over the unstable second floor railing. Every second went by in slow motion, knowing the doom and despair that waited in the shadows if this crucial catch was not made precisely as we had planned.The further Todd leaned out, the more the second floor railed began to bow under his weight and crack, hinting at a disastrous result to the much-needed catch. Suddenly, Todd sneezed in the middle of all this excitement and leaned far too much over the railing, it finally dismantled under his weight and he began a quick, long fall to the dark hardwood floor below.There was more to this problem than we

Part TwoNo one truly knows when they have won a battle or if they are still entrenched in a war that will continue to rage on for decades, at least when there are demons involved. Todd, Mrs. Tannell, and I had victoriously risen to the top of elation mountain after winning what we thought was the war against two demons, a mother and son duo, that had decided to haunt, torment, terrorize, and overall ruin my sixteenth year on this Earth.My name is Naomi, I am dead as a doornail and I have been unwillingly chosen to be the victim of a demon boy and demon woman’s horrific desire to take me into the dark side of life all because my mother had str

Jennifer did not even acknowledge the presence of Mrs. Tannell at my house so late on a school night, at least not to Mrs. Tannell, as she blew past her and made sure to add a sigh of frustration to plop the cherry on top. My best friend since we were small children, Jennifer knew every aspect of my life, but I absolutely needed her to get on the same page with me in regard to the demons and the portal to hell. She was usually game for anything I had to say because her home life was not the greatest it could be.With no father at home or siblings, she tended to spend most of her time at my house acting as if my father were her father and my little brother was her little plaything, like most older siblings treated them. My family really did not seem to notice that Jennifer clung to them as if they were her own, we had never discussed it, nor had I ever heard my parents discussing some secret plan to help Jennifer and her divorced mother through th

That evening, I had planned on breaking down the possession incident with Jennifer, I felt that she needed to know what had happened to her and that I had a few friends, Todd and Mrs. Tannell, that could possibly investigate her more and determine if she was equipped with any sort of special abilities or anything odd that may have appeared near or after the removal of the glowing blue orb from her body. Considering what the orb had provided me, a hand with a Latin inscription and the ability to fight on the same playing fields as the demons.We gorged ourselves on the fantastic dinner my criminal mother had painstakingly built from scratch, she worked all day to provide us with a wholesome meal, free of all the processed nastiness. Jennifer was enjoying the hand spun spaghetti with the fresh sauce tomato topping. Watching all these people buying happy meals and Burger King crowns for thei

Jennifer recoiled at the sight of my inscribed hand; in fact, she gagged a little bit. It was not the sight of it that really turned her stomach, it was not ugly or mangled, it was not scary or intimidating, it was just odd, and something knew nothing about. My excitement grew just thinking of how she would react once she saw my hand in action. Zapping demons left and right, holding them at bay while I yawned from boredom, it was my newest party trick to show her.She said, “What in the hell happened to you? What is that and why is it etched into your skin?”Staring down at the inscriptions, I took great pride in having this gift bestowed upon me, permanently scarred on my body but for the right reasons. Jennifer rubbed the letters, one at a time, and traced the circle with her index finger while she made a whistling sound as if my hand were a wine glass fil

Scotty Geraldy slid his phone back into the front pocket of his tattered stained jeans and walked up to Jennifer, his girlfriend at the time. Who knew if this was his only girlfriend or if he had ten others, he was planning to make visits to today? He was a tall kid, sixteen, slender, and just out right tall. As he closed the distance between himself and Jennifer, time slowed, each step taking the time of twenty.I knew something was wrong immediately as my pendant worked hard to create another callus on my throat, glowing hot and red. Before I could react, he lunged at Jennifer while pulling something long and shiny from his waistband. Turning away quickly, I grabbed one of the three remaining capsules Mrs. Tannell had given me and dry swallowed it. Turns out, it was six o’clock on the dot.My s

Scotty Geraldy was blocking my door, Jennifer was almost back in the world of the living again, and something was gently pinging at my window. The kind of pinning that reminded me of really windy days when the loose dirt or pine needles would fly through the air and bounce off of the windows of the house. That sound was very soothing, and I enjoyed it every time it happened, this time however, it was one of the farther things from my mind.Jennifer gasped back to life with a succession of deep breaths and a panicked look in wild eyes. If we survived this situation, I was certain I would not have to prove my ghost fighting special powers to Jennifer anymore. The real issue here was taking on Scotty and whatever demon that had possessed him.Leaving Jennifer on the bed as she gathered her bearings, I went to the window as the c

Todd was back amongst the living, standing with Jennifer and Jackson, as all three of them stared at me with the fire of one thousand suns. I am certain that not one of them had any idea why I was motivated to trade my life for Todd’s but it was not their concern. The main concern now was to stay alive just long enough to eliminate Mrs. Tannell and destroy the portal to hell that resided in her living room. Through all of this, the killing, the death, the pain, the suffering, it had come to me out of the blue that Mrs. Tannell must be provoking these attacks, especially if she knew I had killed Sarah Macly, her lone granddaughter, she would have all the motivation in the world to make my life a living hell. The end was drawing near, not only for me, but for Mrs. Tannell as well. It was time to end this, once and for all. On

Chapter 156
Todd, the backbone of our alliance, the mini one and the real one, was now lying on his back showing no signs of life at all. His eyes rested still and gray. They were wide open, as stoic as they had ever been in his entire life. His stomach stopped rising with life, he was not breathing at all now. Death had one hand around him, holding on for his dear life, waiting to take his soul away into the ether, never to be seen again. In your last moments, death has a way of making you look as peaceful and calm as you have ever been before. It is the darndest thing, being in the worst position of your life, your soul is floating away, and the lights are beginning to dim, you are dying but from the outside, you look as calm, cool, and collected as you have ever in the history of your breathing days. This generally applies to any and all deaths, except for the horrified ones. Those will make you sick to your stomach. Jesus Christ hims

Todd was in very severe pain, whatever was attacking him was clearly making sure this event was filled with pure pain and horrific suffering. With his pant leg ripped from its seam, Todd’s burn wound throbbed and pulsed with an alerting rhythm. His body was being manipulated by something, some sort of demon that we could not put our eyes on. This put the three of us at a severe disadvantage. It had become very obvious that we needed to act fast, but we had to act efficiently. Flying off the hinges would almost certainly result in a catastrophic failure, that was absolutely unacceptable. All we came here to do was secure demon Sarah where no one would think to find her and we ended up being attacked by an old demon woman, demon wolves, a huge mimicking demon, and I killed a man. This could not have gone any worse, except for some sort of death on our end. Now was not the time for reflection though, Todd needed us, and it was looking

Todd, with his leg wound, would have to wait just a bit longer while we investigated what we thought was the man I killed as he ran into the light. Obviously, if I killed him, he would not be able to make moaning noises or anything like that, so it was fairly easy to discern that the dead man had been turned into a demon and he would certainly be looking for some sweet, delicious revenge. I mean, who would be alright with getting killed out of the blue? Jennifer and Jackson had taken the lead as I made a fine attempt at catching up to them as we headed towards the corner of the abandoned K-Mart. The moaning was like a mating call, this was not the typical ‘I am in pain’ moan. It resonated incessantly, calling us to come and see what was happening. Judging by previous experience, I had no clue about what may be around the corner, all I knew was that we were walking towards danger, and we had to be ready. I said, “Slow down, guys. Le

I could not hold my curiosity back from taking a peek at the filthy, old three-ringed binder. I sincerely wish I had; I was not in the right mental space to read what I had just read. Gaining the knowledge that was hidden away inside of that binder was more of a curse than it was a blessing. The way I thought about life, in general, changed dramatically from that point on, nothing would ever be the same again. Written in ink on a hardened piece of lined notebook paper, I read the following: ‘Today, September 23rd, 1976, I met a few young women that claimed they had been in an accident. Linda Ericson, approximately eighteen years old, Sandra Tannell, approximately twenty-four years old, and Wanda Williams, approximately twenty-eight years old, were in the old Sander’s coffee shop talking amongst themselves. I was studying up on my favorite subject, which will remain nameless because it is so obvious, especially if someone other than m

The slaughtered body of the homeless drug addict that I split in two with a hellacious laser beam from my inscripted hand before we entered the darkness had disappeared. It was clearly splayed out for all to see and showed no obvious logical signs of going anywhere anytime soon. How it had magically disappeared was beyond me, there was not even a sign of blood or fragments of flesh lying about. It truly baffled my mind as to how a body that had been split into two distinct halves could have disappeared along with all the splattered pieces that went along with it. We had finally broken free from the darkness of the abandoned, decrepit K-Mart and had made our way into the light of the outside world. Todd’s van was still where we had left it, everything was still in place just as it was before we entered the darkness to save Todd and defeat the Haunting Naomi
Chapter 151
There is a time that comes in every single person’s life, no one is immune from it, that you see someone you love as the worst being on the face of the planet. It happens to all of us, it does not last long, but it does happen. None of us want this to happen, who wants to hate someone they love so dearly? At this moment in time, after what Jackson did, after I tell you what he did, you will understand how I had this feeling.It all happened so fast, to be honest. There was no time for any of us to respond to what he thought was the right thing to do. Telling the story now, even as dead as I am, my heart still hurts from that moment. More than how horrible I felt when I found out my mom hit a child with a car, killed him, and left the scene. It is the worst I have ever felt. Jackson made a decision and performed an action, he was scared, and he acted out, it was a mistake, but he did not see it as that in the heat of the mo

The giant wolf had been struck one time by the now deceased mimicking demon that had taken Todd into the darkness of the abandoned K-Mart. Shining the spotlight on the wolf’s body, the attack by the demon had contacted its torso. Ribs and blood, internal organs and shredded flash all filled my line of sight when inspecting the giant wolf that had saved the day and eliminated the mimicking demon. As usual, our mission’s objective had been modified on the fly. We had to get to Todd, he was hunched over in the corner, we were still not sure if he was alright or if he was in need of some rejuvenation. Now, I felt we were obligated to take care of the giant wolf, the one that formerly was possessed and under control of demon Mrs. Williams. It was the least we could do considering the fact that the wolf had single handedly taken care of the demon and saved us a lot of heartache and potential damages. I said, “Jennifer, go to Todd.

Chapter 149
Navigating as effectively and efficiently around the poor homeless man that I had just split in half after he came running out of the darkness, the three of us walked briskly into the abandoned K-Mart ready for a fight to save Todd. On my way in, I snatched up the spotlight and made sure it illuminated every square inch of real estate in front of us, ensuring our path was clear or we would be able to see anything dangerous in our way so that we could work our way around it. Shining the light back and forth, covering my two counterparts from any attacks from drunks or druggies, we pushed in as fast as possible without risking any chance of injury or worse. Jennifer and Jackson led the charge, side by side, ready to get into the action and accomplish our goal of getting Todd back in one piece. I took up the rear, providing the light needed and also making sure nothing snuck up behind us as the darkness chased behind our feet. In the distance, as we ru
