115 Chapter 115: The Demonic Pitbull

Devin and Reed were standing outside of the house. They look at Emy’s family inside the house and hear the noise from inside. Reed took a deep breath and then looked at Devin, who was just waiting for him to say something.

“Do you have any idea how the bug got through the portal?” Reed asked.

Devin shrugged. “Well, I dunno. It could be brought by a demon as he passes through the portal.”

“Any idea who went through the portal recently?”

Devin shook his head no. “No.”

“No?” Reed was staring at Devin. “What about the sex-demon cousins?”

Devin chuckled. “They can’t be, because I always hang out at their house and the cousins live peacefully.”

Reed said nothing at all. He wasn’t convinced by what Devin said. Reed took a deep breath in. When Reed started talking again, Devin started walking.

“You probably did not bring the bug, did you?”

.....

Devin chuckled. “If I said I wasn’t, would you believe me?”

“I hope it isn’t you, Devin.”

“I don’t know what else I should do to show you that I’m on your side. I’m not forcing myself, though.” Devin said as he walked away from Reed and went into the house.

Reed was watching Devin. Devin doesn’t do enough to show her loyalty to him. He now has even more doubts about it.

Reed noticed the food on the kitchen table when he walked into the house. Emy’s dad seems to have made food. Elijah immediately went up to Reed. He grabbed her hand and led her away from the group.

“What is it, young man?” Reed asked.

“Why don’t you have wings like Kuya Devin?” asked Elijah.

Elijah’s words left Reed speechless. He wasn’t expecting that boy to ask such a question. He remembered that it had been given blood from a shaman, Avery’s blood.

“What wings?” Reed asked. Reed took a quick look at Devin, who was standing near Eddie and Emy.

“Wings. Kuya Devin owns a black one. It’s very nice. It’s brightest when he’s happy. Look!”

Reed scowled. Elijah was right. Instead of being on fire, Devin’s wing was glowing. “What exactly does it mean?”

“Where is yours?”

Reed turned toward Elijah. “Aren’t you scared of what you see?”

“Why should I feel afraid? You guys aren’t bad...” Elijah said.

Reed smiled. “In your family, we are not...” Reed took a quick look at the people in the house. “Don’t tell anyone else that, alright?”

“But why? You are superheroes.” Elijah said.

“No one will believe you because they don’t see what you do.”

“Huh? Why? How come they can’t see?”

“Because they aren’t special like you.”

“You mean that I, too, have superpowers?”

Reed nodded. “Yeah, so you should just keep it a secret because maybe some supervillains will meet you someday.”

“But you will protect me right?”

Reed nodded. “Of course, I always will.”

“Yeah!”

Reed smiled and pulled Elijah closer to Emy while smiling. Devin helps Emy put food on the children’s plates.

“I sent Jasmin and Avery over to join us,” Reed said.

“Really? That’d be great.” Amy said.

“Big Sister, have you seen what Kuya Reed has on his back?” asked Elijah.

“Huh?” Emy looked at Reed for a moment, then back at Elijah. “What’re you talking about?”

Elijah took a quick look at Reed, then smiled and hurried away. Both Emy and Devin looked at Reed.

“What is Elijah saying?” Emy whispered to Reed.

“Well, remember that Avery’s blood flows through Elijah,” Reed said. “He can see us, but...”

Devin looked over at Reed for a moment. “Whoa, that’s fun. Is he able to see my wings?

“Yeah, it’s glowing. I don’t know why.” Reed said.

Devin just smirked and didn’t say anything. She turned to Elijah. Devin noticed that.

“Do not worry about him,” Devin said. “He is not going to die.”

Reed glanced at Devin and then at Emy. “He’s right, Wifey. He is safe with us.”

“Did you think so?” I spoke up. “If he sees those, then...”

Reed put his hand on Emy’s. “Is he safe okay? He’s okay.”

Emy took a deep breath and nodded her head. “Okay.”

Reed put his hand on the other side of Emy’s cheek. Devin turned away, and his jaw clenched.

“Perhaps you’d like to have some ice cream?” Devin asked, and then he handed Reed and Emy two pints of ice cream. The two took the ice cream that Devin gave them.

“Hey, come on over, and let’s watch a movie.” Eddie gave them all a call.

The three came in and sat down right away on the couch, while Devin and the kids were sitting on the floor. Emy noticed that Devin and Elijah appeared to get along well. He wanted to be okay and not worry about anything, but he couldn’t. He was worried about his older brother. He looked at Reed’s hand, which was squeezing his hand, and then he looked at Reed.

“Just stop thinking. Your family is there to be with you.” Reed said. Emy smiled a little and then put her head on Reed’s shoulder.

A couple of hours later, they were drinking with Avery and Jasmin in the garden. They sat across from each other at a table.

“That’s good news. You have shamans in the family.” Avery told me.

“Do you think it is a good thing?” I spoke up.

“Of course,” Avery told me. “It’s the same as having a priest in the house.”

Both Emy and Jasmin nodded. Reed and Devin looked confused like this didn’t fit with what they were talking about.

“It’s just very strange, Emy. Your husband is a demon, you have friends who are demons and shamans, and your brother is a shaman too.” Devin said.

“That means I don’t have a boring family,” Emy said.

Jasmin laughed about what Emy said.

In the meantime, the famous billionaire of the country is on his way home from a big gathering. Along with a car that carries his bodyguards, another car makes up his convoy. He was in the car with three bodyguards and a driver. The driver was driving quietly and smoothly when he saw something in front of the road. It was a strange kind of dog that he didn’t know how to describe. The driver hit the brakes quickly, and both their car and the other car came to a stop.

“Sh*t, what is that?” asked the driver.

“Did you see it?” asked the billionaire.

“Yes, Sir. Like a dog, a big dog.” said the driver.

“Let’s keep going, Sir,” said the bodyguard as he kept his eyes on the world outside the car.

The man is so kind and very curious that a strange type of dog was also seen by the billionaire. But when the driver tried to start the car again, it did not want to.

“What’s happening?” the bodyguard asked.

“It doesn’t work..”, the driver said.

The bodyguard said, “Look at the engine. We’re in the middle of the road, and it’s dangerous here.”

The driver immediately got out of the car and checked the engine.

The billionaire wanted to know, “What’s going on?”

“Sir, the car has come to a stop and won’t start.” said the bodyguard.

“What?” asked the billionaire in shock.

The driver got back in the car. “No problem, it’s fine.”

He tried to start the car again, but it didn’t work. Everyone turned to hear the sound off in the distance. The bodyguard looked at his other companions.

“Push the car until we pull over on the side of the road,” it said.

Two of his friends got out of the car and talked to the person in the other car. Those who were there got out and started pushing the car. The billionaire looked out the window when he saw the strange creature outside the car. It just stood on the other side of the road and watched them. It looked sad.

“Sir, you were just here in the car.” said the bodyguard.

The bodyguard got down, readied his gun, and scowled as he walked toward the strange dog that looked like it was on fire and was hanging out on the other side of the road.

.....

But a fast-moving car caught the billionaire by surprise, and it hit his bodyguard. The bodyguards stopped driving the car because they were surprised by what had happened. They weren’t expecting that. Everyone’s eyes grew enormous when they saw that creature. It has a canine that is a lot bigger than a normal dog’s. It was about the size of a dwarf horse and a bear. Their hair is as black as coal, and their eyes glow like angry red or green flames. The scariest people may have over one head or, even scarier, no head at all. It depends on who sees it.

Everyone was looking at the creature when suddenly a ten-wheeler truck drove in front of them and crashed into their bodies and cars.

Everyone there died instantly, including the people who were hurt and the billionaire who was staying in the overturned car. The billionaire was having trouble breathing, and blood was coming out of his mouth. He could raise his hand and take a video of what was happening.

The next day, Reed and Emy are the ones who take Mark to school. Reed immediately stopped the car on the side of the road so that Mark could get out.

“Be careful Mark,” Emy said.

“Yes Sister,” said Mark. Mark’s new classmates welcomed him at once.

As Reed kept driving, Emy got a call from Avery. She immediately answered.

“Avery, where are you?” Emy asked.

“We need to meet. We are here in the office.” Avery told me.

“What’s the problem?” Emy asked.

“Yes, Miss Emy,” he said. “Let’s meet at the coffee shop next to the office.”

Reed quickly drove to his office. It only took a few minutes for them to get there. Even Devin’s appearance surprised them. It waved at them right away when it saw them. Emy and Reed went up to Devin and talked to him. Both of them sat down right away in the empty seat next to Devin. He is holding a phone and looks like he’s watching something. The waiter came over and asked Reed, one of their group of five if he wanted coffee. When the waiter left, Devin immediately showed the video to the two.

People are sharing the video all over social media. Reed made a frown, and Emy said nothing as they watched.

“What is it? Is that a dog?” Emy asked.

“He’s a hellhound-called demon pitbull. He’s a guardian or a reaper.” Devin said.

“What?”

“As you can see, he eats dead people’s souls,” Devin said.

“Only creatures close to death and people with special eyes like you can see them.”
