"Gold's POV" Two weeks ago The eerie atmosphere created by the deadly trees and lifeless grass made the surroundings look creepy. I wandered through the forest, attempting to find my way to Master Yung's house. It had been a living nightmare for most of us. We didn't want to die; we just longed for an end to all this suffering and to be reunited with our families. "It won't be easy to distract them," I heard a familiar voice with another coming from the other side of the forest. Who could that be, I wondered, trying to locate the source of the voice. "All of them trust you, so it won't be a problem," another voice replied. I hid behind a tree, shocked to see Lex engaged in conversation with a half-demon. I couldn't tell for sure if he was a demon or a human, but his eyes were as red as a hungry lion that hadn't eaten for weeks. His fingers were long like those of a bush rat, and he had red hair just like Lex. His face was smooth, making it difficult to determine who was older
DESTINYWe went back inside while Mila was looking at me curiously. She gave me a soft smile and then reached out for a cup of water and drank it. Her eyes never left mine."Destiny, I remembered back then when your mother and I were close friends," she said."Huh... You knew my mother?" I asked, and she nodded."She was a great woman. All she ever wanted was peace," she smiled."I miss Lana so much," she added."Did you just say Lana? My mom's name is Floria," I said."I guess she didn't want you to know about her," she mumbled."Lana and Lucifer were lovers, so how could my mom have loved a demon?" I said."And my mom got married to Zack, my dad," I added, and she smiled."You will understand everything when the time is right, I assure you," she replied, going to her cabin and taking an old big book. She brought it closer to me and showed me some pictures of her and my mom back then."You are really my mom's friend," I smiled."Your mom is so beautiful, just like you," she said.I k
"It's either we make it out alive or we die here," Matthew muttered, drawing out his weapon. I looked at him in shock, but he was right in some way. This was a win-lose situation. Either we fight and make it out alive, or we die here, how would we kill Lucifer? I thought.The demons surrounded us, and they were even stronger than the ones we fought outside the demon world. We fought relentlessly, trying to break free from them but they were too many."There are too many of them. We need to find a way to reach Beelzebub. If we kill him, the demons will die," Matthew shouted over the demons roaring as he plunged his sword into one of the demon’s heart."We need to leave this place so we can gather our strength to finish off Beelzebub with the powers we have before they get drained by these demons," Gold added, sliding under a demon and stabbing it from the back to his heart.I closed my eyes, and suddenly, it became cloudy, with rain pouring down and wetting the floor. I opened my eyes
I stood there, hiding and trying to listen to every single thing they were saying. Beelzebub had an evil smirk on his face. I could tell he wasn't an easy one to handle.His heart was my main target, and I was waiting for the perfect time to attack. The others didn't take any action either. Beelzebub walked calmly to his throne and sat quietly, playing with his left hand lazily."What are you waiting for? Fight," he said."Destiny, you can come out now," he added, looking at his nails. I stood there like a rock, wondering how he knew I was there and how he knew my name."Come on, Destiny, don't waste my time. I know you've been standing there. Won't you come out and join us here?" he said, playing with his left finger.I stood there quietly, wondering if I should go or not. Hiding here wouldn't do me any good either. The others needed me so we could finally get this done once and for all.I took a deep breath, ready to face my enemy. This was a fight I was eager to win and finally put
"You look just like her, Destiny," he said with a smirk. I struggled for air, losing so much blood."Don't worry, Destiny. This isn't the end for you. I can't kill you yet," he added."Go to hell," I mumbled, spitting out blood from my mouth, which landed on his face. He laughed, looking down at his fingers."I'm already in hell," he said emotionlessly.Suddenly, he screamed in pain, and Beelzebub's head separated from his body. I gaped in shock—it was Lex who had cut it off.Beelzebub's blood splashed all over my face, covering me in crimson. The white cloth I wore was deeply stained. I looked at Lex and weakly smiled."You're losing so much blood," he said, helping me up from the ground and placing my hands on his neck for support. The rest of the group was already up."This should lead to the exit," Matthew said, and we followed him from behind."What about Destiny? These steps are too much for her. She is weak and dying," Kelvin muttered. I gave him a soft smile."Maybe we should
The room was filled with darkness, devoid of any light to testify whether it was day or night. I lay down on the soft bed, sporting a frown. My hair was messy, and I looked as though I hadn't slept in days, with dark lines under my eyes. I absentmindedly played with my belly button, placing my left hand on my stomach. Outside the room, I could hear the birds singing and creating a cacophony of noise."Morning," I mumbled.It had been a year since I had been locked up in this place. I couldn't even keep track of the date and time. Madam Jenna was the only one who came here every day, bringing me food and informing me of the date. She treated me like a human being, unlike the others. I couldn't fathom how my extended stay in this room would be of use to Beelzebub.Madam Jenna walked in with a tray of food, balancing it in her right hand while using her left hand to close the door behind her. She offered me a soft smile and sat down beside me on the bed, making contact with my body."How
I silently prayed that Master Yung would come for me. Whether he came or not, I couldn't let Beelzebub turn me into a demon without a fight. "I will find my way out of here," I said to myself.But with Master Yung's help, it would be easier. Master Yung is very strong and skilled, and I needed him in this desperate situation. Today was the second day, and by midnight, Beelzebub and his men would come for me to perform the ritual."Haha," I laughed at the thought. Beelzebub thinks he will turn me into his demon and I will just sit and watch. That will never happen.I wished I could see outside. I looked up at the little window, but it was too far and I couldn't reach the top. Even standing on the bed wouldn't be enough.I sighed, feeling anxious. "What will be my fate?" I thought. Madam Jenna entered, snapping me out of my daydream."My child, how are you?" she asked, holding my hands."I don't know how I feel right now, Madam. I don't want to become a demon," I said, looking into her
I scoffed at the name Beelzebub called me; there was no way I would ever become a demon, and to make things worse, he wanted to make me his queen.Beelzebub stood up from where he was sitting and walked up to me, standing in front of me, holding my chin with a smile. "When you finally become a demon, you will become my queen," he said. I didn't move or say anything; I kept hoping Master Yung would show up any minute before things got weirder. I quickly brushed his hand away from mine."Let me go," I mumbled. He turned his back and returned to his seat."Please proceed," he said, raising his hand and sitting down majestically on his throne. An old woman, looking like a witch, stepped forward. I started getting nervous as she brought out a knife and used it to cut my hand, then she brought out a black cup and made my dark, red blood pour inside it."What the hell?" I whispered, crying in pain.Three men came rushing in, breathing heavily, and bowed their heads to Beelzebub, whispering s
