First demon fight

They turned around to see the man back on his feet, but this time, he was not just a normal human being, he was beginning to transform into something else, his body elongated, his eyes split apart, he now had four eyes. He had four legs, his hands now came out of his head, he was just hideous.

The kids were scared. Jato and the girl were looking very frightened, but Zairo had it worst. He was frozen to the ground, he stood there shivering, cold sweat covered his whole body.

He had seen this type of demon before. It reminded him of the day he lost everything. Some of the demons there that day looked like this. You could see the fear and fury in his eyes as the memories of that awful day came rushing back clearly into his head.

"I will kill you boy" the demon says as he walks closer to Zairo. Jato who realized that Zairo was frozen in a spot charged towards the demon but is swiped into the air with on hand, causing him to hit his back on one of the garbage bins and going unconscious.

"JATOOO!!!...Zairo screams at the top of his voice finally getting ahold of himself, all the hair on his head completely turning red, lightning radiating from his body. He charges at the demon screaming in anger, but the demon slaps him into the air and he crashes down, he immediately picks himself up, and runs towards the man once again only to be slapped even harder.

He falls to the ground again. The demon walks up to him, picks him up by the neck, but before he could do anything, the girl throws stuffs at him. He drops Zairo down in anger, and walks up to the girl, raises his hands to strike her but...

"HEY!!! get away from her" Zairo says as he stands up straight, with more fury in his eyes. The demon looks back at him irritated, walks up to him and is about to hit him but Zairo was quicker. He kicked the man in the nuts, forcing him to crouch down in pain, allowing Zairo the chance to grab hold of his arms that stuck out of his head and breaking them. Causing him to cry out in pain.

"Don't you ever, ever, ever, touch my friends AGAIN!!!!.... he says as he punches the man in the head continuously. He was already bleeding but Zairo could not really see clearly now he was consumed by his anger, the blue in his eyes felt like they were sparking blue fire. He kept on punching and punching and screaming.

"ZAIRO!! ZAIRO!!! ZAIRO NO STOP!!!....the voice of Jato who just woke up brought Zairo back to his senses. One of his hands he used to hold the man while the other was hanging in the air, about to land on the man's head when he heard the voice of Jato.

He pauses for a moment, processing everything, then he realizes that he is holding the man who was now covered in blood, his own hands were full of blood. He lets go of the man who had now transformed back into a human being. He looks at his hands in terror and disbelief. He could not believe what he had just done. He had almost beaten the man to death. He was scared, angry, confused all at once. Different emotions flowed through his body at that moment.

The whole place was spinning, his head ached, he was feeling weak and dizzy.

"Zairo, Zairo are you alright?? Jato asks as he sees him collapse on the ground....

Zairo wakes up on the couch in the sitting room, he sits up, his headache had stopped, he looks around and sees that it was already dark. He looks to his side and sees old man asleep on the chair next to him. He stands up, walks to the bathroom to wash his face, but as he is about to open the door, it opens and

"Ahhhhhhhh

"Ahhhhhhhh

The both of them screamed their lungs out, waking Old man up in the process. He walks over to them

"you are awake, Finally!! Old man says.

" what is she doing here, why is she here?? Zairo asks out of confusion. It was the girl he had saved...

"that is no way to treat the person who has been nursing you since yesterday" Old man scolds him, "nursing me, since yesterday, do you mean I've been out since yesterday??...Old man just shakes his head and walks over back to the sitting room. Zairo runs after him for an explanation.

Apparently, when he passed out, Jato had pushed him home in a wheelbarrow he found in the alley, while the girl carried their recyclables. Jato delivered him home safely and explained the whole day to Old man. Old man then told the girl she could go home but she replied that she had no home to go to...So he told her "you can stay here if you want, but it will not be for free. What can you do?..she replied that she could clean very well but she was not really good with cooking....he told her that cleaning would do... So she was now living with them...

" What?? Why??

"why are you asking me why, were you not the one who saved her?, Old man asked the pouting Zairo.

" Because you taught me to" he screams out in frustration.

"just think of her as a new younger sister, I asked and she said she is fourteen. She is just a year younger than you" Old man says trying to end the matter.

"you're fourteen?,.but you look twelve" he says mockingly. The girl seems to catch the hint of what he said but she was not ready to be on bad terms with her savior.

"Old man Sam, I will go to bed now see you tomorrow morning....and Zairo thanks for saving my life."

"Alright, Chinju, you can go to sleep now."...

Zairo bursts into uncontrollable laughter "Chinju, what kind of name is that, who named you.....he kept on laughing even though Old man tried giving him signs to stop. His laughter only stopped when he sees Chinju opening the door into his room...

" hey!! Where do you think you are going that is my room" he says, standing up from the chair. "oh sorry, but Old man Sam says I can use this room as long as I am here." she says as she goes into the room and closes the door, but not before she smirks purposely for Zairo to see...

"OLD MAN!!!!! He screamed as if Old man was not sitting down next to him....Old man on the other hand just turned his face to the other side pretending he wasn't hearing anything that was happening.

" Old man what are you doing, why would you give the girl my room, why, why, why,...where will I sleep? He asks with fumes coming out of his head..

"What,.. Why are you shouting?? It is just a room, besides you can stay in the other room, I already moved your stuff there...

" WHAT!!!....you already moved my stuff, but that room is like half the size of my room, and it is where the rats and insects gather to have their meeting....that place is crawling with bugs"

He said really looking helpless...

"well that is good. Maybe they would wake you up early in the morning next time....."OLD MAN" he screams.

"just be kind to her, you also know what it is like to not have anyone" Old man says, finally hitting the soft spot. Zairo sits down back helplessly.

"So are you going to tell me about yesterday or not??
