The Great Demon System

Nags and Jason stared in awe, almost unable to believe their own eyes, they had never seen or even heard of such an ability. So, to them, it only meant one thing. It must have been some sort of demon powers.

'Jayden! Everything is okay! Calm down!' Moby's voice rang in her head, only to be ignored as a simple hallucination from an unclear mind, the enemy trying to play tricks on her to let her guard down while she was blinded.

Despite all her efforts, nothing seemed to be working and she needed a way to survey her situation as soon as possible. All of her memories rushed back into her head all at once as she was once again on high alert thinking that there were enemies all around her. Her top priority was to scan her surroundings and ignore her other senses for now, since they would only slow her down as there was no way that she could fight while blinded.

She began to panic, no matter what she did, nothing was helping, in her mind, there was only 1 thing that she could do...

Without a second of hesitation, she ripped out both of her eyes, storing them immediately in her inventory before healing her now empty eye sockets, making her eyes regenerate back onto her face, finally giving her back her vision.

When she opened her new eyes, light, colour, her entire surroundings were now back into view, making her come to a realization that she was no longer in the forest fighting for her life, but in a tiny room sitting on a less than comfortable rock hard bunk bed high up in the room, an in-between point between the softness of her bed and the hardness of the ground.

When she looked down, she saw her boyfriend, Moby, with a look of worry on his face. Beside him were two unknown people she had never seen or heard about before, both wearing the standard student uniform. Yet, from the inherited mind-link she had with everyone in the household, she was immediately able to recognize them as demons.

Seeing that she had no idea who they were, why Moby turned them into demons, and what importance they served, she decided to act neutral to them until that information was clearer to her.

Things seemed almost too good to be true, like she had already died and was living in a dream.

She wore a bright smile on her face, trying her best tears of joy from running down her face as she immediately jumped down from her position on the top bunk to go give Moby a big hug. She had thought that she was dead, that she might never be able to see Moby ever again… that was what scared and haunted her the most, and now seeing him in front of her alive and well, she could not help but explode into a flurry of emotions.

Catching him off guard, she switched back to her normal body, jumping straight on Moby as she tightly hugged him into her embrace with no care for any spectators.

"I'm alive! You're alive! You are my saviour! I am sorry I failed and had to burden you with everything… You always do so much for me but I do so little back... I thought I was never going to be able to see you again!" Jayden yelled in a loud yet tender voice, hugging Moby even ample, her ample breasts firmly pressing against his chest, small tears running down her newly regenerated eyes.

"Yeah… I'm glad you're alive too… But you're giving me too much credit, I really didn't do anything…" Moby replied in a warm yet mellow voice, returning her embrace with a soft kiss on the lips to help calm her down, her cheeks turning a slight tint of rose as she was lost in her own paradise, more tears running down her face as she tried to savour the moment for as long as she could.

After a few seconds that felt more like minutes, they both instinctively let go of each other, Jayden's face blooming beat red from the sudden realization of her hasty actions that she had done without even thinking as she took a glance at the smiling Nags and Jason that had seen everything.

Yet, she still felt no regret. Her heart felt more at peace than it had been in many days, and the joy of the occasion completely overshadowed any shred of embarrassment that remained in her heart.

To change the conversation, she managed to spot Ray out of the corners of her eyes, clearly going through the stages of a demon transformation. Knowing that he definitely had a good reason for doing so, she did not press Moby about it any further. Above him in the middle bunk was Alex, seemingly no injuries on his body but still completely unconscious.

"It seems like you managed to get your friend back and fight back all of those pricks! They never even stood a chance!" Jayden celebrated with a laugh of victory, making Moby's face slightly get tenser which she did not pick up on.

"I see that Alex is down and recovering, but I don't see Abby here anywhere! Where is she? Knowing her she is probably out there either training or writing her report on what happened until we all wake up and celebrate! Am I right?" Jayden mused, nudging Moby friskily on the arm with a playful expression.

However, despite everything that Jayden did, Moby did not return her sentiment, a worried look on his soft, yet grim face, trying to come up with the correct words to use to give her the news.

"What's wrong? Did I say anything wrong?" Jayden spoke, a hint of worry and clear puzzlement in her voice.

Moby readied himself, taking a deep breath to calm his nerves, tightly gripping Jayden's shoulders before he told her the truth...

"Jayden… Abby is… Gone…"
