"You're nothing to me... You're not my son... I may have birthed you but you're just like him... Just like your father.... You look like him and I can't stand it..."
Zane woke up next to his best friend and roommate Jasper. She, unlike him, was a full blooded, demon. Oh did I mention Zane was half demon? Zane stretched and walked to the mirror. He combed out his black hair and smoothed in some gel like he did every morning. He stopped and poked the scar on his left eye, it didn't hurt but felt weird. The week before he got in a fight and ended up getting stabbed in the eye of all places. His eye lost all color and sight in his left eye. His right pupil was bright red.
"Up so early?" Jasper laid in the bed with her head cocked at him. She stretched and yawned a lil bit and looked back at him. She was the upcoming ruler of Hell, Lucifer's daughter. Her skin, as soft as a rose and as red as a strawberry. Jasper may have looked like a strawberry, but she was as sour as a lemon. Her hair was black as the night and her eyes sparkled like the sun, bright yellow. "I see you didn't wanna make me breakfast today~"
Zane rolled his eyes and slipped on a fresh shirt "We had enough fun last night give it a break. I'm heading out. Try not to murder anyone without me"
Jasper hugged him from behind pressing her chest against his back, "Awe leaving already? But I wanna have fun~"
Zane snatched away from her "Jeez you just can't help it" he walked out the bedroom door and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth. Before he left the bathroom he decided to pick up the phone and call his mom. Ring. Ring. Ring. No answer, "Fine" he groaned, "I didn't want to talk to a bitch like you anyway.." he shoved his phone into his pocket, went downstairs, and out the front door.
As he walked toward the forest, he noticed everyone he walked past scurry away like rats from a cat. But this cat wasn't chasing them. He hadn't hurt anybody since his fight last week. He wouldn't hurt a soul that didn't hurt him first.... Okay that was a lie. To be honest, Zane loved causing trouble and getting into random fights. It's the demon in him. He also killed a few people but that's a different story.
Ash ran up behind him "Yo wait up!" Zane turned to see his only human friend, Ashton, running his way. She wore a long orange hoodie and her eyes were grey. Her hair was long and dark brown. She caught up to him and took a long breathe, "I've never know anyone who walks as fast as you dude!"
Zane rose his eyebrow and put his hands in his pockets "Or maybe you're just slow. What's up mortal?"
Ash narrowed her eyes at him, "Are you gonna call me mortal every time you see me?"
Zane nodded "Yeah. Walk with me I'm bored" he began walking again and Ash trailed after him, "So do you got plans today?"
Ash shook her head "Nah. Just thought I'd hang out with you and torture myself with your presence" she giggled and put her hands into the pockets of her hoodie "Where we heading to?"
"You know. My spot in the woods. Where I always go" he got to his spot and smiled for first time this week. His spot was amazing, it had plenty of people to hurt. Of course Ash didn't know he liked hurting people. He didn't want to scare her away, being his only human friend and all. Today however, there was no on there. Just a woman in a white dress, facing away from him. Her hair was long and black, flowing in the wind. Who was she?
Ash rose her eyebrow "Alright that's a ghost and I'm not getting haunted, cya!" she spun around and marched out of the forest.
She darted out of the forest quicker then when you run home after having 17 missed calls from your mother. The woman turned around and looked at Zane with the stare of judgement "You are Zane Jackson, correct?"
Zane rose his eyebrow and looked at the woman, "Yea, why? How the fuck do you know who I am?"
The woman in white just gave him the same judgmental stare as before "I am Opel Jones. I am here to send you back to where you belong demon." She drew her double sided dagger and got into battle stance.
He laughed at her, in such disbelief as a dear mortal woman dared to challenge him "Oh your funny. You dare challenge a demon, mortal? I could tear you in half easily with my bare hands" He clenched his fists and hit them together as a sign of basically, i can beat your ass.
The wind picked up the slightest, just enough to push the hair out of her face in order to see her eye. It wasn't like her other hazel eye, no. It was orange-ish yellow. Her pupil was in the shape of a flame. What did it mean? She huffed "Dare you think I am a mortal you demon scum!" Two large, white angelic wings sprouted from behind her. They were bigger then the average human height and her bright, yellow glowing halo appeared above her head "I am right hand man of GOD! How DARE you put me on such a level as a mere mortal! You have been charged with multiple counts of homicide and several other offences to the laws of the gods! Now, die demon!"
Zane smirked and summoned his long, fire chains in his hands. He looked at the small angel and let out a small chuckle "You sure you wanna do this kid? I could kill you in an instant"
Opel growled in rage "As an angel it is my job to protect humans from demon rats! I am positive i MUST do this!"
Zane huffed and smirked once again "Alright, let's dance feathers"
And the fight began..
