Work Text:
I open my eyes for the first time today. I look out the window and see it's cloudy as usual. "Huff..." I sigh.
But I can't forget my daily prayers! As i am laying down, i just simply pray to Christ, thanking Him for allowing me to have a new day. Anyway. I push my red fluffy blanket away, i get off my bed and i open my closet. Again, i wear my typical outfit which is a variation of NC's clothes, and i braid my hair into a crown braid, with a big black hair bow behind. I keep my black cross necklace.
I go downstairs. But i'm not really hungry right now so i might as well skip breakfast. As a self defense method, i walk to the kitchen, open a drawer and grab a kitchen knife to store in my skirt pocket. I close said drawer and leave my house afterwards.
Normally, this weather would freeze me to death, but i got used to it anyway. I look around, searching for Necropolis. She's really a good influence, i like her a lot. After wasting my time searching, Unfortunately she's nowhere to be seen, so i'll just wait and do nothing.
Suddenly, Acropolis walks up to me. "Hey, have you seen Necropolis?" He asked. I haven't seen her either. "No i haven't. She's probably still asleep." I reply. He was quickly disappointed.
"Alright then.." The boy walked away. Now i'm really bored, this place is so lonely and there's nothing to do to kill time. I might as well sleep off.
As i walked to my house, something elbowed me. I nearly slipped. Then i look behind me and see Gloomy Morning, who i'll be calling GM for short, walking away.
"Watch it you idiot!" I yell. She turned to walk and shake my arm. "Don't call me an idiot." She responds, glaring at me. My eyebrows narrow. "Why wouldn't i call you by what you are? Can't you clearly see-" GM slapped me out of anger. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I rubbed my slapped cheek.
"No because you really think insulting strangers is better than simply reminding them?" She sneers. "Yeah because apparently you think everyone will come to you with open arms and be kind all the time." I cross my arms.
"See everyone, this is an example of a terrible person who has no social skills." As she gestures towards me to humiliate me in front of literally nothing, i got more angrier than before.
I kick GM on her stomach. She screamed and clutched her pained area. "What the fuck is wrong with you?! This is assault!" She gives me a death glare. "If you didn't dare to humiliate me like that, i wouldn't have kicked you. Too bad you are a moron." I look down on her as she was on the ground. I spit on her face, and now saliva is running down her nose and cheeks.
"You're disgusting!! I'm calling the cops on you!" As GM pulls her phone out of her pocket, i also pull out a knife, stomp on her phone, crushing it and I pin her to the ground. I lunge my knife at her forehead as she is screaming. "Yeah.. Well i'll make you die NINE DEATHS!" I shout.
I stab her repeatedly, as blood spurts on my face. The knife may or may not have plunged deep into her head, possibly hitting her brain or nerves. But now she's not reacting anymore, meaning she's dead. I trace a small line on her head with my knife, before smirking.
I revive her, only to kill her again. I repeat this until she had died 9 deaths. It was satisfying the entire time, then i just let her finally die.
But wait, i'm in public, someone else might call the cops! I quickly run away from this area to avoid trouble. God, what have i done?! This is what happens when you let your thoughts take you. It's too late now. I keep running away, my heart pounding in fear. I reach a foggy road, and i keep running away.
Then, i reach a nice, bright area. I see sunlight for the first time in years as it warms my body. However, there are more people here, and i am covered in blood. My heart pounds faster than before. I know i'm damned. I see Red World staring in shock.
"Nine Deaths, Why are you covered in blood?!" She screams. I could kill her right now, but she's an extreme demon, and i am a medium demon, so she'll easily kill me off. GM on the other hand was an easy demon, so i could kill her easily.
"Please don't tell anyone!" As i say that, i'm hyperventilating, and my body is trembling with fear. "No! You killed someone, i'm not going to let you get away with it!" Her mood shifted from fear to anger. Now i have two choices: face the consequences or take the risk of killing her. I choose the latter.
"Well if you can't keep your mouth shut, YOU WILL DIE NINE DEATHS!!!" I threatened. But since she was an Extreme Demon, she wasn't afraid, thinking she can outdo me. Well maybe that's the case... after all i am very weak.
I prepare myself. I run towards Red World, i throw a knife, aiming at her heart, but it landed on her shoulder, as blood began to stream down. But as the weapon stabbed her, she kicks my face, making me fall on the grass.
"GAHH!!" I screamed from the impact. She also screamed because she was hit as well. I quickly get up and pull out the knife, but then she grabs one of my horns, and delivers a painful punch to my neck. It hurts really bad.
"Give up!" I yell, as i choke her with one hand, and stab her abdomen with my other hand that's wielding the knife. "AHH!!!" Red World yelled. I try to kick her, but she grabbed my leg and threw me. At this point, we are both really bruised.
I weakly get up and try to pull out the knife out of her abdomen, but she punched my face and i fell again. I think i'm very much damned, she's too strong, my body is too weak. Tears fall down my face. Why didn't i just leave GM alone? I want to surrender and let her kill me or report me to the police.
However, i didn't give up. Why should i follow my own insult? I get up, run to her, pull out the knife, and deliver a powerful stab to her head, before stumbling because i'm so goddamn weak. I lightly raise my head to see Red World, motionless.
I get up and smile. I grab my knife again, hide it in my pocket, and leave. I find an alley way and I quickly get in. It's so dark in here...
I did want to kill her 8 more times, but honestly i don't like taking risks. Red World is an Extreme Demon, and it was satisfying to beat her. But however, just because i did it once doesn't mean i'll do it again. If I revive and kill her over and over, she'll have me dead by the 1st time.
The only sounds i heard were the wind and the sounds of my footsteps. Some grafitti was on the alley way's walls. I keep walking, my mind racing with thoughts. Thankfully it's isolated... or so i thought. Fairydust is smoking here. I turn away and run. However it's too late, she heard me.
"Nine Deaths!!" She calls. What does she possibly want from me? Ok it's because of my bloodied appearance. I turn my head to face her and i walk towards her. The cigarette she had been smoking has been tossed on the ground.
"What?" I tilt my head slightly. "Why the fuck are you covered in blood? You killed someone you psycho! I'm not letting you get away with murder!"
Oh no. But hey i defeated an Extreme Demon. This should be possible right? But one thing i must remember, is that a high chance doesn't mean guaranteed success. But that's enough, I'm going to kill this bitch.
"Okay then, may God save you, because otherwise you are gonna die!!" I lunge at her, however, she striked at my face with her foot. I fall to the ground. "Tch. Easy victory." She smirks. But however, i didn't let her have victory! I got up and i aimed to stab her neck with one of my horns. I grip onto her armpits with both hands, to pierce my right horn inside her neck, but she pushed my head away. Great now i can't immediately kill her.
"What do you think you're doing?!" She squealed. However she had a magic wand with her, meaning she could use magic to kill me, so i'm done for. All i could do is submit. "Ok! I surrender! Please don't hurt me with that!"
I kneel down and clasp my hands together, as i beg for mercy. She pulls my hair upwards and pins me to the wall. "Alright then, here's a deal..." As she is speaking, i remember i have my knife in my pocket. So i quietly pull it out and i swiftly stab her skull, penetrating really deep. Her body crumples to the ground.
I sigh in relief. I walk away, but however, now i irreversibly became a murderer. I will be going to Hell anytime soon. What have I done? It's too late.
As i walk to literally nowhere, i find a girl with 6 horns. I immediately turn to the other side, but she is getting closer. But then i heard... "Hey." My heart sank. I turned around fearfully. Not only it is an Extreme Demon, it's also... Bloodlust! Oh God. What does she want? I'm scared.... I gulped. "H- Hello... Do you need something?" I began hyperventilating and backing away a few steps.
"Yeah, i do need something." Bloodlust smirks as she walks over towards me. What she said next made my face pale. "I want your blood." Her eyes faintly glowed red, before beginning to chase me down. From my injuries, my running speed lowered. But then she caught me and started to attack me with her bare fists.
I scream loudly while crying for help. She didn't even care that i killed 3 people, why would she care if she's also going to kill me? My voice started to weaken, as my socks and clothes begin to tear. I silently pray to God. "Praying to your God won't help you, i'll make sure you're dead before he 'helps' you." She mocks.
As she continues to aggress me, she keeps drinking my blood. I try to push her head away from my wounds but she keeps insisting.
But then, as i start to give up, i hear a shout. "DON'T TOUCH HER!" A motherly voice was heard. I immediately recognized this was Cataclysm's voice. Her eyebrows are narrowed, she wants to protect me. However, Cataclysm is much weaker than Bloodlust. Does she have a death wish?
However, Bloodlust laughed. "Fighting me as an Entry Extreme Demon? Are you suicidal by any chance?" She teases. "I don't care about my strength, but I don't want you assaulting random people like that. Kill me, not her." Cataclysm crossed her arms.
"Suicide's not the answer, honey. But i guess if you want her safe..." Bloodlust says as she walks over to Cataclysm. I look away, not wanting to see gore. "Run, Nine Deaths, RUN!" Cataclysm yells as she gets aggressed.
I hear Bloodlust violently beating Cataclysm up. Cataclysm didn't think much of my bloodied appearance, she assumed it was because of Bloodlust's assault.
But I will forever cherish Cataclysm for saving me. I owe her my life. As she said, i weakly run away. I really need to rest. I could feel blood running down my body, I feel like i'm gonna die any time soon.
I'm searching for a discreet way to my home, since I don't want curious eyes all over me. Once i found my home, i quickly get in. I strip off my clothes to take a shower.
As the water runs down my body, i think of my choices and started to regret everything. Why, just why did I take the life of an innocent soul, just because she simply elbowed me? Why did i let my anger take over? And then I murdered two more people? I wish Cataclysm didn't just allow herself to get hurt. She's allowing her life to be put to an end for a murderer. Okay...
I rinse my hair while my heart is pounding because of my regrets. I also clean my horns and my tail. Once i finished showering, i wrap a towel around my torso and dry my hair with a hair dryer.
I wear a red shoulderless shirt and black shorts, and put on my cross necklace once again. I also braid my hair into a crown braid again since i like it that way. I walk downstairs and eat lunch. My stomach is empty from not eating breakfast.
As i take a final bite, i hear a knock on my door. I leave my meal and open the door. In front of me, is a girl with broken horns, and a scary smile. I recognjze that this girl is BP Night.
"Hello BP Night. What do you need?" I ask. Her smile widens even more. "Hey Nine Deaths, I know you killed Gloomy Morning and Red World. But that's fine." I sigh in relief, but why is she telling me this? I don't care. She hasn't mentioned Fairydust for whatever reason.
"If you give me some money so i can get an enhancement surgery, i'll make sure to keep it a secret and I will defend you from any accusations. If you don't do what i said, i'll expose your filthy acts. It's either giving me money or i'll make you wish you were the one killed." She added. My heart sank.
"So you basically want to blackmail me?" I confront. I don't have time for her blackmails... I'm still a little afraid though. "Shut up!" She yells, her voice raising. "It's not blackmail. It's either you give me your money or i'll tell everyone. It's your choice. Now hurry." She smiles.
"How about a third option. Go ask someone else." I cross my arms. "There's no third option. I don't have all day, make your choice before I expose you." She threatens. But then, I snap, and pull out my knife.
"You know you're no stronger than i am, right? Don't you think because I'm not a demon anymore means you're way stronger. If you want to end up breaking your bones, I won't hesitate." BP Night taunts as she shields herself. Tch, she's just trying to deceive me. But then, i feel fury at her next words:
"Are you wearing that cross necklace to honor Jesus or is it for decoration? Because you're a false Christian, and i know it. Jesus doesn't tell his followers to kill. You're still a Satanist." She smirks. I can't describe how really angry i am just by words alone. I'm religious, I'm supposed to follow the rules but I...
I roar in fury and push her to the wall. I stab her face, neck and chest repeatedly. Blood splashes everywhere. "DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE!!" I scream while tears fall out of my eyes. She also screams. Once the noise died down, I let go of her and pulled the knife out. I hear nothing except for my heavy breathing.
But then I realize just how much I messed up.
I'm currently thinking of a way out of here. I look at the knife in my hand and point it to my neck. "I mean, I deserve hell anyway..." I plunge the knife inside my throat, and slowly die...
