A Little Piece Of Hell

~Jimmy's P.O.V~ Zacky was challenging Brian. This was not going to end well. Brian was 10 times stronger then Zacky. He was second in strength. However, Zacky was smarter then Brian. Zacky knew how to fight pretty well, but not being as strong as Brian was going to cause him to eventually lose. Brian was strong and knew how to fight, but Zacky knew his every move and how to avoid his next hit. Trully it wasn't them initiating the fight at this point. Sure the human side of Zack wanted to rip Brian apart, but only the demon side would come out in the fight. Brian barely had a human side left. He mostly had let that go when he had to kill Michelle. Zacky jumped towards Brian. His body slowly transformed into that of a demons, as did Brian's. Claws out, completely black body, flamed filled eyes, and fire burning up his spine Zacky flew through the air. Aiming for Brian's face. Brian grabbed him out of the air and forced him to the ground. Zacky never had a chance. Brian had a claw foot on Zacky's throat. I normally don't get involved but I felt Jay wake up. I rammed my shoulder into Brian's side. "Stop this!" Brian's demon face looked at me confused. His demon's rage was turned towards me, Brian was fighting with the demon trying to get it to recognize me as his best friend. Finally gaining control Brian reigned in the demon and returned to what was left of his human side. Zacky lay unconscious back in human form on the floor. Zack's neck was covered in large scratches. "What the hell Jimmy?! I could've killed you!!" Bri yelled. I quietly pointed to the girl. She looked terrified. Brian was stunned she had seen all that. "Forgive us Jayla. This isn't how we wanted to tell you. I'm sorry you had to witness that brutal fight. They usually don't do this." I apologized. My Angel coming out in large quantities. Jayla just nodded rapidly which caused Bri and me to chuckle a little. "I at least expected a 'what the fuck was that' out of her." Brian commented. I just nodded in agreement. Then a noise we haven't heard in a long time sounded.

~Matt's P.O.V~ Was that the doorbell? Who got past the gate? We haven't had visitors in months. I passed Johnny and Arin in the hallway and shrugged. I ran down the stairs with Johnny and Arin following, and noticed Brian and Jimmy coming out of the basement door. "Who's here?" Jimmy asked. I shrugged again. I threw the door open to reveal the guy who usually made my life a living hell. "Hello Shadows." "Why are you here?" I demanded. "I know your secret Shadows. Lucifer told us." I looked back to my band mates. "Come in, I guess." I watched as Ivan Moody, Zoltan Bathory, Chris Kael, Jeremy Spencer, and Jason Hook and what seemed to be Jason's victim took seats in my living room. It's not that we hated Five Finger Death Punch, they were actually pretty cool guys when on tour. Now that may change since they know our secret. I had to get Arin out of here before he finds out what he is. "Arin and Jimmy please take Jason's victim to another room while we discuss business." Once they left the room I began my questions. "What's this about? Why did Lucifer tell you about Arin? What's happening?" I asked through clenched teeth, trying to keep calm. He avoided me. "New victim?" He asked Syn seeing he was still standing in the basement door. Syn nodded. "Get to the reason your here Ivan, or your leaving now." I said, still trying to keep calm. "Oh of course. Well you see. Lucifer has sent a message to you, through us, but before I tell you I have to let you know. We are going to be living together for awhile." Ivan smirked. His demon was in control right now. His band knew it. They looked at me sympathetically. Nothing I couldn't handle. "I see you've been to Hell recently." I stated. "Yes the effects are still wearing off. I'm slowly gaining my control back though." It was true. I could see him fighting it in his eyes. "Maybe we should post-pone this chat until tomorrow, when your in full control. I'll have the victims make sure the spare rooms are made available for all of you. I'd like to avoid any demon outbreaks in my house. Please don't say anything to Arin of the secret. Lucifer doesn't wish for him to know yet. If you need anything just ask. You know as long as you keep the peace and abide by our rules, your welcome here." Ivan looked as if he wanted to fight me on what I said, but instead of him speaking it was Jason. "Thanks Shadz. We will follow your rules while in your house. No one will tell the boy. We will all keep the peace. Won't we?" They all agreed, including Ivan. Jason was Ivan's second. Since Ivan wasn't capable of making the best decisions at the moment, Jason assumed responsibility. The mood turned from hostile to friendly and soon we all were having fun. Sure Ivan can be a pain in the ass, but he was still a friend. He couldn't help his demon and mine had issues. Ivan decided to have an early night so no fights would arise.. It all went pretty smoothly.

~Zacky's P.O.V~ I woke up on the floor. I felt the scars on my neck. They should heal pretty soon. I hope. I wouldn't want Jayla to see them. I rolled over to my knees so I could get up. That's when I noticed she was awake and staring at me like I was growing an eye on my forehead. I reached my hand out to her, but she pulled away, or at least tried. The wall stopped her. "Stay away from me!" She screamed. I pulled my hand back. "I won't hurt you." I said calmly. "I don't know what the fuck you are, but I don't want you to touch me!" She screamed, while thrashing around wildly. She must've been awake during the fight. "I'm a demon, but I'm also human. I won't hurt you. I.. I love you too much."

~Jimmy's P.O.V~ Love is in the air, and apparently it's very contagious. Katelyn, Jason's victim, is my other half. I knew when I first laid eyes on her. My mother always used to tell me about my other half when I lived in heaven. Then she would begin to cry and tell me when I met my other half I would be far away from home. That was when I was a child. I never understood what she meant until now. This girl, she was meant for me. Surely Shadows will let me keep her. I'm not a demon. Will the rules still apply to me?

Notes

Welcome Katelyn.
