-Tenth chapter-

Karen was going to die. She knew she was. At least, she thought she was. She's all alone now, locked in this small, dark, room. That's when a little rat passed by her. It stopped in front of her, looked at her, while nibbling on its little paws. She stared back at it intently, it was like having a staring contest. And soon, her eyes was glazed with something. Hunger. She felt it in the pit of her stomach. But she couldn't, and she won't eat this innocent little creature. Something took over her mind, her body, though. And not long after, when she had her own body and mind back, she found herself biting on a small little bone.

She looked at the floor. Oh god, what have I done? She thought, as she studied the little bones with a little amount of blood staining it. The rat's bones, the rat was gone, in her stomach. The thought of that made her want to puke. She backed away fast, eyes frantic with worry for the rest of the living things in this room. Then it turned to fear. Fear of herself. The beast inside her, the demon. She leaned back against the wall, crying tears of despair. And when she wiped them away, she realised something. The tears weren't tears at all, they were blood.

Looking at them, the already dried up, smeared, tears. Reminded her of the demon she has become. She just wanted a normal life. She didn't want this. She misses Krev, Kerri, she misses her old self. She misses her old life. She laid down, trying hard to forget everything. Hoping this was all a nightmare and that once she woke up, it will all be gone. And slowly, her eyelids closed, vision gone, senses off. Her whole body was on shut-down mode. But the demon was not.

30 minutes later.

Karen's eyes fluttered open. She felt energised. That is, until she saw the pile of bones in the middle of the room. She touched the side of her mouth, it was bloody. Oh god, I hate the demon! Whatever it was, anyway. She thought.

What? You gonna insult me like that and expect me to let you off?

"Woah... Who was that? The demon? Right. Yeah, this is my body. I have full con-"

Karen was cut off by her hand punching herself. HER HAND!

"Stupid demon... What a grasshole..."

Shut up, idiot. I have full control to your body now. Thanks to the shadow, thanks to Krev.

"Krev? But, but he wouldn't. He's my friend." Karen said, trying to convince herself, almost sobbing.

Was. He's gone now, sweetie. But don't worry, he's resting. But knowing your friend betrayed you, Kara, must be hard for you. But I need to feed. And I'll use you. Simple. And DON'T you dare fight me!

"You're a demon. Can't you just feed yourself?! Now get out of me, you moron!!"

No reply came from the demon. Karen hoped it was gone now. But sadly, it will never be...
