Forever Changed - By Jamie Gibson Page 0,38

mother? I beat her constantly and she was stronger than what I thought. She was harder to break. I deserve everything they did to me in the Underworld, Elizabeth.”

“Yeah, well I need you healed, not for me, but for my mother. She has slept all night in a chair, worrying about you and you are going to sit there and not let me do anything.” I cried out through gritted teeth.

He sat and thought for a few minutes before he finally answered. He started crying, “I love your mother so much, Elizabeth. I was supposed to be a coldhearted demon and something happened when I met her. I am confused, but at the same time I am happy to have a second chance. I never want to go back to the Underworld. It is so horrible and awful. I don’t want to be damned there and endure the eternity of torture and abuse.”

“I know you don’t and I am happy you have a second chance. This time we are going to be a happy family and we are going to start over, but we have to take care of the now first. Landon said he foresees the Dark Lord rising, he will be coming. He is coming to get me for my powers, kill you, and kill my mother. You have to help me fight him. I need you to let me heal you. Please?” I pleaded with him. I really needed his help. He was a demon and all demons possess powers. “Not only that, I killed a kid from school, I need your help with that, too.”

He looked at me with his mouth opened wide and stared. Tears formed in his eyes while he said, “My little girl has grown up on me.” He cried continuously, his chest heaving up and down, while he tried to get enough air in between each wail.

I watched him throw a fit with disgust. Are you flipping serious? I need him to be strong and get angry and all he is doing is crying like a two year old sissy. I thought when he came back from the Underworld he would be different. But dayum, I didn’t think he would turn into a blubbering pansy ass.

I rolled my eyes, walked over to him, and shouted, “Quit your damn crying. Act like a man and be one. Yeah, you came back from damnation a whole new person, ready to get a second chance at life. So now is your chance, but be a man about it. You have another chance and all you’re going to do is cry about every little thing. I need your help, we need your help or we are all going to live in the Underworld and be damned for eternity.”

He looked at me with his eyes shining a smile forming on his lips. “That’s my girl get angry at me,” he said smirking.

I looked at him, my turn with my mouth hanging opened with shock. This is what he is doing. He is trying to make me angry, so that I can heal him.

“What are you doing?” I asked him with my teeth grinding. I probably will have to go to the dentist by the time this is over with!

“I am not completely changed Elizabeth. I am trying to make you angry. I am not going to sit here like some wuss, crying over everything. Don’t get me wrong I should be, considering all that I have put my family through. But in all honesty I am a demon and always will be.” He said with a huge smile on his face.

I looked at him and said, “This is all a game to you. JUST ALL A DAMN GAME!!” I screamed. I felt my temperature rising, my heart pounding, and my blood pressure going up. A storm was forming above our heads, with lighting, and thunder crashing all around us. My eyes turned red and I was pissed.

“QUICK ELIZABETH, CHANNEL YOUR ANGER INTO HEALING MY BODY, SO THAT I CAN HELP YOU! HURRY OR YOU ALONE WILL SEND ME BACK TO DAMNATION AND BACK TO THE UNDERWORLD.” His scream sounded distance, but I could still understand what he was saying. He made me angry, risking going back, so that he can be healed and take care of his family.

Instead of concentrating on his lungs constricting and not letting him breathe, which I could see his face turning purple now, I grabbed his ankle. I concentrated on solely repairing
