Goofing around with random demon shards could be the dumbest thing any of us had done since we were graced with our first breaths of fresh air right after the doctor gave us a good slap to make sure we were not stillborn. Unfortunately, we had absolutely zero choices. I did not want to put Jackson at any more risk than he had already been under, so using our sibling special ability was out of the question to me at this point.
We all placed our transparent demon shards, one and a half’s worth, into our mouths and chewed them up vigorously. None of us knew the abilities, if any, that we would gain from the ingestion of the freshly harvested demon shards. There was also a chance, from something Todd had told me one time, that different people taking the same demon shard could be affected by it diff

We had not even been able to get into our formation before the first group of five demons turned the corner. Even flustered and uncoordinated, those five demons stood no chance at all as Sarah and Jennifer were able to splatter their insides all over the brown, dirty walls of the passageway. Demon heads and limbs were strewn about between us, and the remaining horde of demons being led by adult Jackson. Now that we were able to get into the formation that would allow me the opportunity to murder Sarah Macly as requested by Nurse Helen, it was time to push through the horde and get home. It actually seemed like fate, the fact that the transparent demon shards did not work on Sarah, her destiny was to die in hell at my hands. I did not particularly take pleasure in the fact that I was going to kil

It was not a long trip to get to the portal, we just had to keep moving. Jennifer and Sarah led the way to the portal which was almost ideal for me and my situation. Jackson was in front of me and behind Sarah, our tactical line continued to push forward. The walk was long, but we accomplished it quickly. Adult Jackson had already retreated out of sight. I was very tempted to try to trick Sarah to come with me to go and kill the orphan killer. Knowing her, she would certainly accept my challenge so she would have an opportunity to show me up and have a nice little battle tale of her own to tell. Sarah Macly did not know that she was never going to set foot on Earth again. She had no idea that her seat in the alliance was vacated and ready for the next human with special abilities that had an affinity for killing demons. Her inability to control herself had p

Jennifer went up first, Jackson was soon after, I went last. The last thing I heard was Sarah’s terrified screams as she realized what I had done and what her fate was now. She was now trapped in hell, surrounded by hungry, angry demons. I knew the girl had a mouth on her, but she was cussing me like a sailor, sticks and stones sweet Sarah, sticks and stones. My final vision of hell as I entered the gorgeous blue portal was adult Jackson, his fist balled and shaking in the air. With a wicked smile on my face, I was able to flip him the good old double birds as I floated up into the portal to get home. He did not find that funny or amusing at all, his face turned redder than any of the Lake of Fire demons’ faces had.
Haunting Naomi Chapter 95
The three of us flew through the gorgeous blue hell portal, Jennifer, Jackson, and me, as we headed home after a very successful mission. Jennifer had figured out that Sarah was missing and had given me the third degree about it, even with all the furious air batting at our bodies. I had no choice but to confess to her that I had purposely left Sarah down in hell because Nurse Helen had given me a direct order to do so. I saw no reason to lie to Jennifer, she would figure it out eventually and I did not want to have a bundle of lies tying me down when she had her eureka moment. Jackson seemed relatively happy for a little kid that had been kidnapped to hell after killing a demon. He was so much more powerful than we had ever imagined, we would need to work together and harness this power. He may very well be the most powerful of all of t
Haunting Naomi Chapter 96
Todd began the rescue conversation first with visions of Jennifer and I descending down the hell portal once again with a new arsenal of demon shards at our disposal. We would have shards that could detect human heartbeats, regular breathing patterns, and shards that would make us move at double speed and a shard to decrease our need to breathe at all which would free up our human computer brains to run more complex programs. It was all very fancy and wonderful sounding. Before I get to the rest of the group, I must say that there is no way in hell, no pun intended, that I was going back down that portal willingly, especially knowing that I was the one that caused Sarah to remain in hell to be devoured by demons or employed by them, who the hell knows? Jennifer went along with Todd’s idea just to try to push some of the possible suspicion from my person. She entertained him with questions of possible other shards that could do other miraculous things.

Todd hovered over me as I laid flat on the floor with a huge knot on my forehead from faking a pass-out attack to get myself out of having to go back through the portal to find Sarah Macly, the reject of the alliance. He began gently pouring water over my face as I fought off the urge to flinch. The coolness of the water was very jarring and incredibly hard not to react to. I increased the rapid release of my fake moaning just to add a little cherry on top of my selling this fake sickness. The ever-hovering Todd began to talk to himself, spouting out ideas to help me with my seemingly real illness. Nothing would cause me to break character, that is the strength I had over my mind to ensure that I was not going to have to go back to hell through the portal, at least not today. His brain was running a mile a minute with grand ideas of tricking my brain into thinking I was healthy, leaving my body no choice but to survive and push out the extreme i
Haunting Naomi Chapter 98
It was a brisk morning; the sun was trying to peak over the horizon as we made our way home to my house. The dew on the grass in the pristine front yards around the neighborhood was glistening but warning us that our chance to get home undetected was coming to an end quickly. I was not trying to deal with my parents this morning about being out all night, there was no explanation, nothing that would make sense to them and bring their grace to me for watching the sun rise. We turned the corner to the street my house was on. Remember last time, we had a demon possessed officer waiting for us. I had to zap him to get us out of danger and that almost led to my parents catching me performing my special ability. Things were getting too close for comfort; we had dodged so many bullets that one was bound to hit its target at some point. Just u
Haunting Naomi Chapter 99
Watching Jackson sleep so soundly made my heart swoon. He was absolutely adorable and at that moment I promised myself that I would never let anything happen to him again. Now. In order to keep that promise I would need to deal with this green couple sitting out front revving its engine before it alerted my parents that there is danger out front. My phone was in my pocket, and I desperately wanted to call Todd or Jennifer to get them over here to help me out but what would I say? There is a car out here in front of my house making a bunch of noise. When the driver cracked the window, a bunch of fiery smoke came out? It just did not seem necessary to make any calls at the moment. The way I figured it; my dad could handle it if it came down to it. I walked downstairs to see my mom and dad sitting at th
