THE GHOST AND THE EARTHBOUND DEMONS A DOG IN THE LION'S DEN
Some minutes earlier, Danny was seen sneaking around the church. In as much as he has seen his stolen speed bike, the best course of action was to get out of there. But since Danny will always be Danny, he can't go without having his revenge. The church premises were empty, a revelation that made a frown appear on Danny's face. If there is one thing Danny hates, it's going home with the total number of bullets he went out with. Someone must always get killed. Otherwise, he sees it as a bad day. Unfortunately, Thomas and Maria were nowhere to be found. He has no choice but to give up, today had proved to be boring and uneventful, Danny concluded on his way out. Suddenly, he saw the silhouette of a man waiting at the entrance door, and his heartbeat quickened. This must be Thomas. That dumbass.

"We can't go through the church auditorium," Agent Roland said. "whoever pulled that trigger will be waiting for us.""I know another way out," Thomas muttered. "When I was young, I worked as a laborer during the construction of this church."Thomas need not explain how he knew about the shortcut, but he nevertheless did. Why wouldn't he? All eyes had turned to him immediately he made known of his knowledge about the church underground. But who can blame those gawking at him? Anything related to this church was evil, claiming to know some secret passage about the church would put anyone in a suspicious position. "Can you lead the way please...shame that you don't know how to handle a pistol."Of course, Thomas knew how to handle a pistol. You can't grow up in Eldo City and claim to be ignorant of the uses of several weapons.

THE GHOST AND THE EARTHBOUND DEMONS AN ACT OF TREACHERY
Bobby had no intention of tailing Terry and Holo. But immediately he stepped out of Cynthia's house, he saw them floating towards his previous location, and this kind of prompted him to wait for them. But when they didn't come out in an hour, Bobby's curiosity was irked. How could he leave when he wasn't sure whether Terry would take a bite of his bait? To be on the safer side, Bobby stays around. He then sneaks after them when they at last emerge. Bobby didn't see the ghost and his hologram subordinate, but Shrek did. He was the one who prodded Bobby to wait and then commanded him to sneak after Terry. Since Shrek possesses Bobby, the demon and human have come into a kind of agreement.According to the study of demonology, demons possess humans in three different ways. The first was known as a symbiosis relationship. This relationship favors both the demon and his or her human carrier. They both agreed to disagree, and both entities were aware of every decision made by either or b
THE GHOST AND THE EARTHBOUND DEMONS A COUNTRY BUMPKIN
Terry had toughened up a bit before reaching the age of fourteen. That was quite expected, a country boy couldn't survive at Anderson College without developing thick skin. Either you are tough or you get carted off home like Kelly, Nelly, or some other boys Terry has heard of or met. Funny enough, no one ever touches them, but there are other ways of bullying. A more effective but sly way. Before getting admitted to Anderson College, Terry had always been told that bullies were arrogant bunches with big sacks of dung and turnips for heads. He found out that wasn't always the case. Most bullies considered themselves sophisticated wits, using savage sarcasm and public humiliation to keep people like Terry in their place. Bobby Shit was a prime example. Anyone else with the surname Shit would have had a nickname, but not Bobby. He was too popular to have a nickname...and too dangerous. So, Bobby Shit will always be Bobby Shit. For some reason, Bobby decided to take a special interest
THE GHOST AND THE EARTHBOUND DEMONS AS DEAD AS A DINOSAUR
Terry was right. He was as dead as a dinosaur in a few hours. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't aware yet. The first few moments as a spirit are always very disconcerting. Your mind, unaware of the state change, still believes everything is the way it used to be. Subconsciously, you try to force physics into the spirit world. How can I be flying down a vast tunnel and still look at myself lying spread-eagled close to the riverbank? Practically impossible. Conclusion: I'm dreaming. Terry told himself he was dreaming. A nice dream, for a change. No abusive stepfather waiting for him with a leather whip, no sick mother to blame him for everything that ever goes wrong, or some bullies stalking him at school. He was free. Free at last. So he decided to relax. The tunnel was big and boundless, and it was full of floating dots. Dots that Terry soon realized were humans.People floating in the tunnel? Damn crazy?...no! He surely must have heard something like that before. Something about t
THE GHOST AND THE EARTHBOUND DEMONS THE GHOUL BREAK
Thousands of years ago, Lucifer called all his demons to leave Earth immediately and assembled at the gate of hell for an urgent meeting. As expected of demons, not all of them heed his calling. In anger, Lucifer banished all the demons that were absent in the meeting from entering hell. They will forever remain on earth. And that is how they got their names: earthbound demons. Thousands of years later, the earthbound demons, which are now worshiped by humans as gods, had grown very powerful and more devilish. And their evil rise unto the throne of God. To put an end to their rule of evil, and to punish their human accomplices, God sent rain to fall for forty days and forty nights. This was known as the rain of Noah. Even though the demons survived the rain, everything they worked for had been destroyed. Worst of all, no humans worship them anymore. Ashamed of their loss, they left Earth. But another shock awaits them: they no longer have access to hell. Finally, God built a place fo
THE GHOST AND THE EARTHBOUND DEMONS DEMONS IN CHURCH
The island of Eldo was populated by the first and dominant Irish settlers, then the Muslim settlers from Asia, and later by African traditional worshipers. Yet, despite the fusion of different religions and personalities, Eldo's settlers believe in living and letting others live. A few months ago, the peace of the whole island was shattered by the murder of a nineteen-year-old student of Anderson College. Investigations were made, suspects were arrested and a trial began. Finally, all the suspects were discharged and acquitted as a result of lack of evidence, and Terry's case was swept under the carpet.Kaul was among the earthbound demons that ruled the earth for five thousand years before they were cast into a ghoul. Today, the memories of his glorious days flashed through his mind as he barreled down the pulsating corridor at a quickened pace. The apartment was a mess, but getting good accommodation in this neighborhood was sheer hell. Why on earth would they choose this old aband

A BLESSING OR A CURSE?
Danny was back in the clinic barely after a few hours of stepping out of it. This time around, he had no choice but to speak a half-truth. His neighbor's house was on fire, so he helped in putting out the fire. And that was where he sustained the burn on his back. After being treated twice by the same doctor within twenty-four hours, and of course, being told the advantages of letting professional hands handle a fire outbreak, Danny was allowed to leave. Back at home, his bike isn't packed where he was expecting it to be. And after asking around, he learned that Thomas hadn't been seen as well. Now, apart from his desire for revenge, another feeling has started growing in Danny's mind. The fear of losing his newly bought bike. Had Thomas run away with it? Sold it? Or had an accident with it? Danny realized the best thing to do at this point was to involve the police. They alone have the resources to track his bike. But involving the police is like breaking the street code. An offen
THE NICE GUY
The past twenty-four hours had been blurry. A kind of journey between earth and hell. Between Realities and hallucinations. But at last, Jimmy woke up and his eyes darted around. His heart missed a breath when he saw the man staring down at him. Bobby. But his rioting mind soon calmed down when he saw the lady beside him. He knew this lady. She had been appearing in his dreamlike existence. Cleaning his wound and bandaging him up. "Howie friend. Glad you're back from the dreamland."That was Bobby's voice. He called him a friend. Satisfying but Unbelievable. Jimmy felt as if he was still stranded in the dreamland. Cynthia offered a reassuring smile as she muttered, "I thought you won't make it and sometimes wonder what I have gotten myself into," she paused and her smile soon radiated over her round face. "your recovery is a wonder, Jimmy. And I can't believe that your bones were almost healed. This is a miracle, Bobby.Bobby knew it wasn't a miracle. The demon in him told him. Th
THE STREET LAW
Danny's wound had been cleaned, treated, and bandaged, but still hurt like hell. Yet, Danny wasn't concerned about the physical pain, or his deformed wrist, he had suffered worse and live. His main anger was his tampered pride. For the first time since he arrived in this neighborhood, someone had not only stolen his bike but had taken a bite out of him and then left him naked in broad daylight. Naked! That was the height of these insults. All the lads and lasses that feared and respected him now have a video of him on the ground begging for his life. Naked for that matter. Unbelievable! Because of Danny's position as the most rugged man in Kalamazoo Street, he realized this case needed to be settled. Something must be done. Fast. Based on the street law, the case must be treated on the street where it occurred. No need to inform the cops. So, Danny decided to operate by the street law. Didn't he consider himself a don in the street?When the doctor asked about the wound, Danny who k
ANOTHER SUCKER
If Agent Roland had arrived an hour earlier, he would have seen Thomas entering the church with just a jacket over his body and his wife strapped to his back. However, the agent was delayed by an unexpected hold-up. Roland adjusted the telescope in his hand, focusing his gaze on Judas. Due to some unknown interference with the speakers placed close to the church, Roland's conversation with a young man sounded like a rat scratching a rubber tank. Roland had to do with looking at them which wasn't enough. He wishes he knew about lip reading. Vain wish. As for the young man, Roland believe he was just another sucker to be leached. Roland swallowed a large saliva, wondering how stupid humans can be. How will they believe a scum like Judas will give them supernatural power, heal their sickness, or make them invisible? People are stupid when it comes to parting with their money. Not that Roland cares. It's none of his business. It only became his business when people started disappea
