Chapter 1: Dead Girl Walks

I was a fool. A fool to let my feelings get in the way of my judgement.

He was suppost to be my friend.

Damn was I a fool ever since day one.

I can still see myself falling.

Falling into the darkness. It seem like there was no ending to the path.

My body ached when i landed. My hair was damped. Wetness covered what seem like my entire bare body. Water. I landed in Cape Fear? No, i opened my eyes just to see I was no longer at the river, nor Earth, but in a black lake naked from head to toe.

Where the ******** am I? Looking at my reflection in the water, I could see every detail above me. The was as black as night with no clouds nor birds to accompany it. Right above me was a liquid surface as if it was water. I look up at the water-like surface wondering.........

"What the-?" A girl's lifeless body was facing down at me with eyes wide open in fright.

Why ain't she falling like I did? The question echoed in my head as I studied her carefully. She had long jet black hair, wearing a plain black tee-shirt with a blue-jean jacket and blue jeans. She looks so familiar to me. "oh my god!" Tears ran my face as I realized that girl was me.

"Welcome to Demon World." an orange cat came out of the shadows and bowed. "I'm Sliver. Silver Cast."

My body shivered from the cold wind. "Milenda." I wrapped my arms around trying to cover up the top half. "Why am I here? I am no demon." confusion sweep through me. Silver looked up and smiled. "Well apparently you must be half that's the only reason why you are here."

Questions ran through my head. So I'll never see my parents again? Tears ran down my cheeks.

"Don't cry my dear." Silver wiped my face with his paw, and kissed my forehead.

"What-what will happen to me?" the tone of my voice was so low I wasn't sure if he had heard me. He started to respond but stoped and stared right pass me. He looked like he's seen a ghost.

"Well dear child, you have two options," said an angel-like voice. I turned around and saw the most beatiful creature ever.....The demon was so vampire like. She had long brown hair wearing a black dress which made her pale skin pop, especially her cherry-red lips. "Option one: you can turn into your inner demon or; Option two: stay a human soul and risk gettin' eaten."

Inner demon or get eaten? Well might as well go with the one with the most promise. Gulp......"Inner demon, please." nervessness revealed itself in my voice. Silver backed away as the vampire chick closed her eyes and folded her hands together.

"Romfay umanhay otay emonday

Ayday otay ightnay

Irlgay ot eastbay

I ommandcay inay owerpay

Otay hangecay hetay hildcay"

What the fu-? Everything around me started to spin. My vision was blurry. Drifting....

I open my eyes and saw Silver staring at me in amazement. He looked so child-like from this angle. "What?" I asked trying to sit myself up.

He just keep staring at me with his big blue eyes filled with lust. " How old were you in the human world?" his voice was so soft and dreamy.

"Sixteen, why?" my head felt like it weighed a ton.

Sliver smiled as if he just won the lottery (which made me more nervess than I already was). "Okay. Before I say anything else, one year for a human is one hundred years for a demon. So technically you are sixteen hundred years old." Well the way put it made me feel old. Very old. But he still had lust screaming in his eyes. Taking my hand (or so i thought), helped me off the ground but never let go.

I looked down and saw my hands covered in jer black fur and instead of a normal hand it was a paw. "What the ******** am I?" I was totally beyond freaked. This was so much more differnt from getting pimples.

"A black cat-demon." he pulled me closer in his arms. Our faces were so close together that i had to fight back the need to his him (in my new demon eyes he looked so totally hot). "Oh, by the way I'm eighteen hundred." he leaned in closer and kissed me.

I wanted to pull back but his lips were so soft and moist against mine. The only thing i could do was to kiss back. I wasn't sure how long it was til he finally ended the kiss. His cheeks looked flushed. "Sorry, I couldn't help it. You just look so darn beatiful." Sliver took my hand again and started to lead me away from the lake.

There was a strange chill up my spin like there was a dark presence surrounding us. Demon World just seem like evil was controlling it. God, I hope I was wrong.

"Where are you taking me?" surprisingly I sounded so calm. Silver looked back at me with fear (mixed with lust) in his eyes. "Some place safe. He doesn't need to find you."

"Who's he? Who are you talking about?" panic ran through my body. Silver tighten his grip on my hand (which hurt a little).

"Lord X. He's the ruler over this world." he finally came to a stop in a wide open meadow. "X is one of the most powerful evil in all of Demon world. If he finds you, who knows what he'll do to you." Then why stop in an open area? What was he thinking when he stoped? "This meadow is protected by a spell that the ancient good cast or which no evil can set foot here." he answered like he knew my thoughts. "There's a cabin not far from here where we can stay." Walking forward, leading me to wherever he was talking about, I was actually trusting him with my life.

Screaming for my my life. Running as fast as I can go. Finally realizing there was no hope of escaping.

He grabbed my tail and was pulling me back towards him.

Oh my god! Where's Silver when I need him? my thoughts were screaming in my head. "Help!" tears filled my eyes.

I heard him laughing as he pulled me to his muscler chest and turned me around. "No one's going to help you, Chosen one." What the hell is he talking about? "You are mine now." a grin appeared on his black shadow like face. He leaned in and bit me on my neck like a vampire. The pain sent a shock throughout my entire body.

"Milenda, wake up!" Silver? I felt someone shacking my body. "Milenda! Wake up!" My eyes flew open and Silver was hovered over me with worry written all over his face. "Are you okay?" I tried to sit myself up but I could still feel the pain that made my body fall backwards. I could also feel that monster's teeth biting down into my neck which made blood flow down my neck.. My breath was being suck right out of me. "Help." my voice sounded like a mouse. Silver rushed out of the room then came back with wet wash cloths in his hands which he placed over my bloody neck.

The lustful eyes I drew so acustom to was now fearful. He sat down next to me on the wooden bed, looking down at the wooden floor boards. I placed my hand on his gently. "What's wrong?" He turned around and looked me straight in the eyes, then kissed my cheek, "Nothing, I just hate that you got hurt."

After several minutes the blood stoped and Silver was lying down holding me in his arms. "Silver," I said softly, "Why did my neck bleed?" no answer. I guess he didn't know. Or maybe he did but wasn't sure.

Either way I'm screwed.

Chapter 2: Silver's Dark Side

He knows I'm hiding her from him? No, of course not, he just know that she's hiding.

Debating with myself I look down at Milenda's sleeping body. She is the most beatiful girl I have ever seen. I'm not going to give her to him, but if I don't return he'll know something's up
.
How do I get away from her without her knowing I'm working for Lord X? Well she'll find out sooner or later and I rather it to be later.

"Silver, darling where are you?" Damn, I almost forgot my link to that b***h. "Lord X is waiting for you" Maybe if I just annoy her she'll leave me alone. "You better answer me! I know you can hear me!"

Scarlett is a pest. I don't see why he wants her around. "Tell him I'll be back in a little while."Silence. After a while she finally responded. "Whatever. You're call. Just be quick, you know he doesn't like waiting."

Now what do I tell Milenda? I need her to stay here while I'm gone. "God, I hate this." As I studied her I noticed an outline of a star on her tail. "Oh great. She's Scarlett Blackstar's 'good half'."

Milenda's body jerked away from me. "Who's Scarlett?" he eyes were still shut but I could tell that she was definitely awake. "No one." her eyes flew right open and she studied me carefully. "Don't worry 'bout it." I gave her a reassuring smile and she just shrugged her shoulders. "But I do need to go for a lil' while.Please don't open the door for anybody."

Is he just going to leave me here and never come back? her thoughts came to me instintly. "I promise you I'll come back before midnight." she just stared at me without saying a word for what seemed like the longest while before she laid back down.

Milenda just seem to glow with good energy all around her that it broke my heart that she wasn't evil like I am.

Maybe I'll get her to change but if I can't then I'll have to gve her up.

"Took long enough." God, I hate here. I just got here and she wants to bite my head off. "Won't you suppost to be guarding the lake, for any new demons? " I nodded my head. "Then how did you let this cat demon slip pass you?"

I thought for a moment about what I should say to Scarlett. Anything but the truth. "I dozed off, I guess. I didn't wake up until you started calling me." as I spoked I studied how much she looks like Milenda. The only differnce was that Scarlett's star outline is on the back of her ear.

She stared at me coldly for what seemed like hours. "Whatever. Your punishment not mine." She walked out and in her place was him. His power filled the room.

Terror ran down my spine. He stood as if he was a statue. Eyes so dark, features so cold. Lord X gave evil a whole new name.

"You are so ******** careless!" frozen in place I just stared, waiting for him to lash out. "Silver, answer this; Did you want her to get away?" I shook my head. "Well you did. That girl had powers that I could've found use for. She is more powerful than Scarlett. Scarlett is a lil' lost kitten waiting to be told what to do, compared to this other girl." he started pacing in a circle around me, shaking his head as if he didn't know what he was goin to do. Shadow demons usually keep track of their target. So he probably had a lead on where Milenda was. "I found her through the realm of dreams. But the location wasn't that easy." I did a mental sigh of relief. "I want you to find her. Last chance, you have one week." He knows something! my gulity conscience screamed at me.

Just one week to turn her evil. Or she's going to hate me.

Walking out into the darkness of this world, the image of Milenda sleeping so peacefully poped into my mind. "Silver?" her voice was so soft that it was truely heartbreaking that, just for a moment, made me wish I was on the side of good. "I hope you'll forgive me. I never meant you any harm." So you know where she's at? Scarlett's thoughts startled me. "What are you talking about?" her paws was going up my back and around my neck, like she always does when she wants to know a secret.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about." she purred so suductively. It made the fur on my neck stand up. "Where is she, my darling?" her voice sounded so sweet that it almost, just almost, wanted me to tell her.

"Wouldn't you like to know." I smirked. "Listen I don't know where she is. So go ******** yourself and mind your own business."

Her touch vanished from my body, along with her presence.
I found myself at the lake of dark powers. The same lake where Milenda fell into. From the time I laid my eyes on her, I saw something in her that could bring all demons to their knees. But yet her soul was so pure.
Maybe, the lake gave her her powers. But it never gives a pure soul powers unless it knew it wasnt going to be pure for very long. Which means it is possible for her to be evil.

Excitement was filling me. "You are going to be mine. Forever." a smile spread across my face.

"Forgive me." Silver's voice woke me from my dream. "Silver? Where are you?" I took a good look at myself in the mirror, that was on the closet door. For the first time I actually saw my new appearence. Myself as a demon.

Everything about me has changed, all except the color of my hazel eyes.

I stared at my reflection for a long time until I started to see Silver standing at the edge of a lake. He was staring into it smiling, like a little boy. My heart was racing right out of my chest. Something about his smile made my stomach turn.

After a moment or two the image went back to me sitting up on the smooth wooden bed (which was ment for two). I just laid back down. I felt like if I left the bedroom something was going to happen. The room just felt so safe, like it was a mom and I was its child.

I started to dream about my old life. The life I had before I died.

"Hey, lazy wake up." I felt someone pulling my arm so gently. "Five more minutes," I mumbled.

He sighed and I heard footsteps leave then reentered the room. Cold. Super cold water feel on my face. An automatic growl escaped my mouth as my body jerked into a stitting position. "What the hell was that for?!" I screamed at Silver, who was laughing.

"We need to go." he said after he got his laughter out. "He knows where you're at, he's goin to send someone after you." Energy felt like it was being drained out of me at the mention of the evil lord. I didn't want to go because no matter what he's going to find me sooner or later. Besides what would a lord want with me? I just got here, I haven't done anything wrong. "Lord X senses power comming, so he kills every new good demon that comes." Silver forced me out of the bed and carried me out of the cabin.

The meadow felt like it was losing power. It scared me. I wanted to run back into the cabin, at least in there I felt safe.

Leaving the meadow was darker, nothing about this world is safe. It makes me want to act like a little kid and cry for mommy. Which now that I think about it that doesn't sound like a bad idea.

The other demons that we passed just stared at us with hate burning their souls. Some of them mummbled curses under their breath, others either stared or flipped us off. It was the most uncomfortable walk I ever went through. They acted like we were the bad guys.

Silver stopped at a bloody red brick building that said "Last Dream Hotel." "Here we are," he said, "We'll be staying here for a while. Silver took my hand and lead me inside. He told me to stay seated on the lobby coutch while he goes check us in.
