She was scared for him. She was the twin who didn't normally express her feelings but deep down, she knew she had a soft spot for him. Loved him even. If he continued, he was going to burn his body. And Ankha would blame her. She transformed back into her human form. "Luther". They looked at each other, his crimson eyes wanting nothing more than to kill her. "I know what happened", she said. He calmed a bit, his eyes returning to normal. "She used to love you. But then, someone poisoned your mind about hee, so you tried to force her to late with you so she wouldn't go free". His Demon Essence started to dissipate. "Thank you", he said falling to his knees. That was all he wanted to know. He wasn't at fault. "Thank you ", he mustered. She nodded. "You fed her too much neg

And the dining table was overturned, the food on the ground. He walked towards the large door. A hand phased through from the other side of the door and dragged him through. He appeared in a place, where hundreds of people were. They were shivering from the cold. There were no lights, and they had to rely on candles to see. It was like a large dark cave. He waded through the crowd, looking for Forver. Forver dragged him away. "I thought they took you", he said, worried. "What's happening? You're supposed to be partying", Joe said. He looked at the ground. "What's wrong? "There was a knock from the other side of the door. He looked at Joe. "They're here", he said. The Mitos. "I led them here", Joe realized.

"The whole city is crazy. A mansion exploded. Stanning's resigned. And now there's a rumor that there's a virus spreading". He shook his head. He wasn't one for gossip. He turned to see the receptionist smiling at him. He put his cap on his head and focused his eyes
Narrator's POV Luther wore his mask, looking in the mirror. It reminded him of the life he used to live. He was a monster. Emily was right. He didn't want anything more than the feeling of superiority. He wanted to feel more like a second choice. He put his gun away. He didn't need a gun. He was a hell hound. The rest of the gang were behind, watching him. The Boss didn't trust him. They too didn't trust him. It was fear. They had no choice, they knew what he was.
