~~~~Shimmer's POV~~~~

The day I was born, I could see

The day I was born, I could see. I saw the blood, the placenta, the horrified faces. I was a demon to them. I am a demon. 

My mother died right after I was birthed. My father didn't want me. The Church took me in. 

They chastised me and made me into God's special child. They didn't think I was evil. I didn't think so either. But everyone else did. I stayed in the Church. I never left the confines of the Holy grounds. 

A few years later, when I was five, a burning sensation started in my chest. I started to cough and gag, scream and cry. The Church people thought I was possessed by a demon. Then I heard it. A sickly sweet voice. I voice I wish I never heard.

'Shimmer,' the sweet voice crooned. 'Shimmer, it's me, your sister. I'm Soul. Now, if you don't want to die, leave this holy place. Only then will the burning stop.'

I didn't like it but I knew she was right. For some reason, I knew she wasn't lying. I pushed past the Father. He went to grab my arm. I turned and hissed at him. He backed off. 

My color changing eyes were black. The color of true fear and great depression. I wasn't depressed. I was scared. Scared for my life.

I stumbled out the door and through the gates. When I was only one inch out of the Church grounds, the burning stopped. I could breath. 

'That's right,' Soul crooned. 'Now you're safe.'

"Why are you here?" My voice was horse from lack of use. "Why are you not another being?"

She laughed. I hated the laugh. 'Because I am part of you. We are one, sister. We cannot be separated. I am your demon half.'

That took me by surprise. "Demon h-half?" 

'Yes, demon half.' She laughed again, the sickly sweet sound echoing in my mind. 'You are the neko half. Now, I'm going to take over. So sorry dear sister.'

"Take ov-" Pain seared through my body. My blood burned, limbs locked. I fell, fell into a dark hole. I was gone. Soul is now in control. I am only in thought.
