The man called Max came up to me. He seemed to be moving closer to an abnormal foot speed. Even so, I'm not trying to evade like Robin or the others.
I'm gonna face Max alone. Doing things I didn't have time to do, when I realized the state of a person inside him. He's a strong man, therefore, I have to protect him. Mother said I must protect people like her, if not to increase the crime.
When Max started making his first move, I touched Max's forehead quickly. I can't lose my chance. Max tried to let go of my hand. His strength really almost made me give up. I will send my soul into his mind.
When his eyes meet my eyes, no longer the aura ‘ingin to hurt someone’ that appears. He wants to be free. He also struggled, because he could not control himself. Because of the look in those eyes, I can't let go. With a few words taught by mother, I tried to get into her mind.
“Miss Reine, what are you doing? Protect yourself!” shouted Marc. He ran towards Max, trying to block Max from me, once again. “Stay there, Director!” resolute reply. He can't interfere, in this process. If he intervenes, he will be hurt.
Hearing the answer coming out of my mouth, Marc suddenly stopped stepping. “What do you mean? He'll suck your blood again. If that happens a second time, your life will be completely unsaved. So, please stop Miss Dallaire.” obviously begging. “Miss Reine!” call Robin chiming in. He goes to great lengths, destroying the shield made by Max.
Unfortunately, I have to shake. Max's safety is more important. “Do not approach! He made a shield, to protect yourself! Stay right there! I'll finish this” my peek calms down. “Miss Dallaire, are you crazy?! He can hurt you!” exclaim Luc, the big guy. Again, he's acting kind of shitty. His words always annoyed me.
But I have to be patient. I can't be influenced by him. At least, it cannot. So I decided to focus. Closing both my eyes and just switching on Max.
I chant a mantra, taught by my mother. In order to summon his soul, I must find a hole. A hole that became the entrance and exit of his original soul.
There are! There! Apparently, he was injured in the back. God, the wound is so big. Like, a scratch scar. Was it the damned demon that injured him, a demon from the clan?
Mother said, the injuries caused by the damned demon are indeed invisible to the other demons. Only a human with magic blood could see and close the wound. Thank goodness I can do both. I will wake his soul back up. Where are you, Max?
Me, I was in his body. I suspect, right now I'm tracing the memory of his brain. There's plenty of room here. So, I walked, looking in every room in there. I kept looking and searching. Where his soul is hiding.
Shortly after going through room after room, I found a dark room. A room, which is far away from the other room. I'm trying to get in.
Locked up.
I tried to open it, but it was locked. The door was closed very tightly. There was no way or gap I could use to look inside. But I can't give up.
Clingukan, I look for any gaps to be able to penetrate inside. There's none. There's nothing I can do. Pacing back and forth, I imagined some way to force my way in.
Suddenly, a voice came from inside the room. Hurry up, I put my ear to the door. I listened to the voice of the goal, it began to become clear.
Crying.
Max, crying? Was he scared, because he couldn't stop himself? Though, when it sucked my blood that night, I was sure he was still conscious. I'm pretty sure, he hasn't been affected by his damned demon.
Was it after sucking my blood that he met a cursed demon? If it's true, it must be that the devil wants to take my blood from Max's stomach. They got into a big fight and ended up, getting hurt.
Well then, let's not say he used the wound to track my whereabouts. Aye! That could have happened.
Nah!
Then I have to hurry. I have to save Max's soul, before the damned demon manages to realize my existence here. Max, open the door quickly. I must hurry!!
However, there is no answer. “Master Max? You're inside, aren't you?” i said again. This time, I didn't hear any crying. Maybe, he heard me.
“Who's there?” reply from within. Good, he finally responded! I had to choose the right words, so that he would believe my words.
“You okay?” ask for a more familiar dialogue. “How did you get to this place? You are... what?” confused answer. “Of course you can, because I. miss you”.
“Thanks me? Have we met?”
“Sure, we've met. You may not believe it, but I am always around you. When the time comes, I will appear”
“What are you called... Another power that arises from within me?”
“Hm. It could be said that. So, do you... need help?”
Silent.
No answer from him. I hope, not to speak wrong. I wish my words hadn't hurt her feelings.
“How to?” take Max from the inside. “First, open the door” reply me quickly. “I can't open it. He had locked it too tightly. I can't even control myself. I don't know, what I've done out there” obviously sounds frustrated.
I'm trying to soften. “Because of that, you have to destroy it”. “What? What am I supposed to destroy? Where should I start? The door.. I can't see where the door you mean” said confused. Ah, that's the problem. He can't get out of there. He just didn't know, the position of the door I was referring to.
It seemed, the cursed demon from the wolf demon clan, had blinded Max's inner strength. I know, every bloodsucking demon has a strong inner strength. Their smell is sharp and can detect enemies from afar.
The damned demon of the wolf demon clan, was only the only demon that could blind it. Damned demons, usually have special different powers from ordinary demons. Therefore, I must break the power of blinding it. After that, Max will know the existence of the door.
But, where is it? Mother said, if it is not shaped like a stone yes. That's her! The strings, over the door. Apparently, the blind lines are really close to me. Why not think?
I hurriedly smashed the thin string, using my family's sacred knife. No matter where I went, I never took the knife off. Because besides being able to protect me from the crazed demons, the blade can also be used for other things. Especially, the current rescue mission. Although this mission, was not the first.
Actually broken. “Now, can you see the door?” I was half screaming. “Where? Oh, tha. I saw! What do I do next?” the answer is hopeful. “Destroy it!” my door.
However, one obstacle I did not want, happened. The demon who was taking over Max's body, apparently already realized my existence. If he attacks, I'll bounce out of Max's body.
And I, never could have saved his soul. Perhaps, that demonic defense turned even stronger. It will be difficult, to break through it a second time.
Quick. We just need to hurry. “You must destroy the door!” rush hour. “With what? I can't do it with my bare hands!” confused shouting. I looked back at the string I had broken.
If my guess is correct, the damned demon will definitely be monitoring me through the string hole. Then, he would make an attack from there. Nah! Max, you can do it!
“We don't have time!”
