Succumbing into Darkness CHAPTER 40: REDEMPTION
Kurt impatiently waited for the bus to arrive at its designated stop. He would run towards Chris’ house if he needs to, but he knows that commuting will be lot faster. He dashed his way out of the bus and towards Chris’s house. He even bumped to some people because of his rush.He kept on calling Chris on his way but his phone is already turned off.“What is wrong with you?!” he exclaimed as he catches his breath. He’s still trying to walk as fast as he can. Kurt eventually arrived at Chris’ house, he pressed the doorbell numerous times but no one responded. Kurt’s heart is beating fast, both from running like crazy and from worry. He sighed, he has no other choice then. He punched the passcode to open the gates. It was disclosed to him by Chris ages ago.He run towards the front door and he found it open. He pushed the door and entered inside.“Chris.” He called but no one responded, “Chris wher

Kurt couldn't concentrate on class. Chris didn’t show up on class again and it’s worrying him to death. He already flooded him with messages but Chris didn’t reply to any of his chats. He impatiently tapped his foot as he discreetly checked his phone for any reply. He didn’t know why but he’s getting more and more anxious as time slowly passed by.“What’s happening to you Chris?” he mumbles. They just talked yesterday, and Chris even said that he’ll explain why he has to go already today.Kurt is already losing his mind. Something feels off and he just knows it.He checked his phone again after the teacher turned his head to write something in the board. His eyes widened, Chris finally replied!“Happy Birthday Kurt. Thank you for everything.” He read the message. Kurt felt a pang in his chest.“No…” he mumbled and stood. Everyone's eyes went to him when he

Chris woke up with a heavy head. He couldn’t even remember how he fell asleep. He feels wasted even though he didn’t drink. The first thing he did as soon as he got up is to check his phone. He was expecting for any update but he didn’t get any. He heaved a sigh, it’s just like the first weeks when he was waiting for any updates on his parents’ case to come up.He’s getting so tired of this set up.People would give him hope then makes him wait and then something will be up and they will be back to square one again. The cycle continues. He waited enough.“I’m tired.” He mumbled. He’s tired in every aspect possible. He went downstairs to eat. He doesn’t have the energy to, nor that he sees any reason to but he’s still human. He has to eat so he could survive for the mean time.“I thought you die on your sleep.” Chris’ face immediately soured. Seeing Damien early in th

Chris still wanted to bury himself because of embarrassment, day already passed and he’s still blushing from the mere thought of him crying in front of Kurt. What more is that he instantly broke when Kurt yelled at him. Chris literally buried his face to his pillow.“I’m such an idiot.” He mumbled to himself. He knows that he didn’t cry because Kurt yelled at him, but because of how much effort it took for him not to confide everything to Kurt. He hates how weak he gets whenever he’s with Kurt.“Are you planning to die in there?” He heard Damien’s voice. Chris’ head is still buried in his pillow.“Wait!” Chris suddenly lifted his head. Damien’s attention went back to the human. Chris immediately took his phone from being charged and checked the calendar.“What is it?” Damien curiously asked. Chris sighed and buried his head on the pillow once again. He heard the demo

“That killer officially pissed me off.” The demon is obviously furious. Chris could see the black smoke that used to surround Damien back when Chris couldn’t see his true form. He distanced himself from the demon as he was feeling the familiar suffocating sensation whenever Damien just fed. The demon continued rambling while following Chris. Would Damien come with him in the classroom?Chris sighed as he walked towards his classroom. He was scolded for entering the elementary building when it wasn’t allowed for cutting classes. It’s the first time, so the teachers are visibly worried about him. His teachers are noticing that he’s been usually spacing out in classes lately. They must be thinking that he was acting up because of what happened in his life. They aren’t wrong, but for a different reason. Chris was asked several times, but he dodged their questions and simply apologized for his actions. He even has to go to detention later.

“Could demons get drunk too?” Joaqin asked out of the blue. He turned to Linus who’s busy checking the fridge for food. Linus momentarily stopped his snack search and looked at Joaqin with questioning eyes. They have been together for a while but the demon never saw Joaqin drink.Joaqin stared at him while waiting for Linus’ answer, “we don’t.” Linus answered with an arrogant grin, “why? Are you asking me to drink with you?”Joaqin nodded, “Yeah. It’s exactly what I’m implying.” Joaqin could see Linus’ surprised reaction. He chuckled, is it so unusual that he’s inviting a demon to drink with him?Linus eventually laughed, “You’re challenging the wrong demon.” Joaqin stood and took out bottles of liquor he’s stocking. He brought four bottles and placed it on the table. He then took out two glasses. The demon shrugged and took out some food and sat bes

“Are you going to school today?” That’s the context of the messages he got when he checked his phone. The messages are from Kurt and Leila. Chris checked the time before he replied. He woke up earlier than his alarm again.He replied the same thing to them. He’s still going to school, he has to. Chris thinks that it’s better to be surrounded by people, instead of moping around the house the whole day. He needed to stay sane until he was able to serve his revenge. Hell he cares what happens after.Leila is the first one to reply saying that Eugene would pick him up. He sighed and simply replied thank you. Kurt’s reply came right after he replied to Leila. Chris scratched his head after reading Kurt’s long message. Kurt is reminding him to eat and drink his meds before he goes to school and even linked a recipe for a healthy breakfast.He did his morning routine while actually considering the recipe Kurt had sent.

Chris woke up with a heavy head. It’s been a week but his body still hasn’t recovered from what happened. He kept thinking of the memories he saw from Troy’s mind. He wrote it the other day while pretending to study. He continued repeating it on his mind too. Chris is convinced that there must be something in those memories that could lead him to the truth, if only he’s strong enough to last longer.“You’re still thinking about that?” Damien appeared beside him. He’s sitting on the edge of the bed and there are a lot of spaces but the demon chose to squeeze him in. Chris sighed but stayed still, he already knew what Damien wanted to do. The demon started feeding on him, just like what he expected.He simply closed his eyes. It’s been physically draining him more than in the past.“It’s getting tiring…” Chris thought. He knows that the demon could also hear his thoughts.

Damien materialized elsewhere after cutting Chris’ little trip in Troy’s memories. He didn’t even expect Chris to last that long. Humans aren’t supposed to do it for long because it will drain their energy but Chris lasted with sheer willpower. It didn’t only drained Chris but also him. Angels could easily do it but they are advised to only use it during emergency situations. It is a labor for an exiled like him.He could’ve fed from Chris but he might kill his host if he did, he would, but not until their contract is fulfilled. He walked around to find someone to feed on, but he saw Xavier instead.The angel looked at him with the usual disgusted look.“I’m not in the mood to deal with you today so out of my way.” Damien spoke first. He’s not in the perfect condition to piss off an angel. Xavier didn’t budge and continued blocking the demon’s path.“Why? Scared that I will kill

CHAPTER 1: BIRTHDAY GIFT
He feels like falling, no, he is really falling.Chris extended his hand, trying to grab anything to save himself but all he could grasp is darkness. He anticipated death but he felt his back hit something soft instead. He opened his eyes, quickly got up and scanned the place. He is currently sitting on a king sized bed, in a room painted red and black.Sounds of laughter echoed the room, like two people are having the time of their lives. Chris tried searching for the source of the voice but failed, and also realized that the room has no doors or any way out.Panic started hitting his system, “Who is that?” He asked but the voices continued laughing and this time, more people are laughing until it is incomprehensible.It was simply maddening.The voices started to get louder every passing second. Chris tried getting out of the bed but a pair of arms emerged from the bed and grabbed him by the neck. He is pinned back to the bed...
