My handsome feathers ruffled against the cold november air as I sliced gracefully through the sky,hollow of bones and heavy at heart,well I was a bird at that time,a golden eagle to be precise,with beautiful golden plumage and a diamond black beak,I flew smoothly enjoying the scenery below:few cars mazing out the streets of Lagos,as it was barely dawn headlights were on and it made the movements below colourful.Since I had been possessed by a demon willingly by dint of my knowledge of black magic,I had become more powerful than any other magician in the country and the world at large because none had ever willingly summoned a demon into them,but I had done it successfully,fueled by my drive for revenge against a certain powerful magician.

Five years ago, I was barely twelve,orphaned at a very young age and left to care for my beautiful younger sister:the only thing I loved and cared about in my life. Lack of money made it impossible for us to advance educationally, we had to resort to menial jobs and dare I say we were doing very well. Subject to the fact that the country was under the rule of magicians and sorcerers,it was impossible to become anyone without magical education,this made me itch at the back of my mind to go to school,but I could only dream. I had been taking private magic lessons from myself through the use of stolen books so I was getting along a bit. As fate had it,I was cleaning my masters house one night,a reputable magician he was so he had a library that could contain all the books on the planet. I had been stealing books home of course,but the certain book I found hidden under a hatch slide that night was "black", it was titled "blood,spirit and will".they say curiosity kills the cat,that made me grateful for being a homo sapien,I opened the book and it bonded with me, I took it home for studying and that was the greatest mistake I made in my life.
My sister was barely asleep when there was a crash outside our door, it sounded like a horde of dragons had fired a blast at my weak wooden door, the door was blasted into splinters at the force of the Detonation,immediately,three demons were in the room,they took the form of winged lions, fangs bared and stilt eyes gazing at my sister and I.I had almost passed out from fear when I heard a human voice, "what a dump" I recognized my masters voice immediately and froze. Had he found out about the black book?no! This guy had millions of books, from parchments to leatherbounds and paperbacks. He couldn't possibly have noticed that tiny book.
"Sir,I am deeply h-honored" I stuttered."Of course you are,you should be!I'm sure no noble presence has ever been in this cottage".the demons laughed at their master's wisecrack in a way that made me want to retch."Anyway, down to business, get me my black book. Yes! I see you are greatly surprised,did u actually think you could steal from me? With my BLUNE CORTEX detecting every movement of my properties? A very foolish decision boy!, now the book!". I had barely recovered from the shock of being caught,my knees knocked together,I straightened up not wanting to look weak in my sister's presence,she was already weeping helplessly."I'll get it now sir," I ran inwards,dove under my pillow to get the black book and to my great shock,the book had multiplied. There were now seven black books on my bed, with shivering hands I picked up the original and dashed out of the room,now my sister was crying silently,couldn't blame her,most eleven years old were probably asleep by now. Under the glares of the three demons, I walked to my master, bowed and handed over the book,with a lighted up face, he held the book and stared at it like his life force had just returned to him. "My sincere apologies sir" I began, he held up his hands and clicked his fingers. instantly, one of the demons shot forward and shot out tendrils of black CLUX which wrapped around me tightly. I screamed in pain,my sister ran forward but she was stopped midway as the second demon made a transformation into a red plume serpent." Sey," my master called for that was my name,or the short form of my name rather because only I possessed knowledge of the full. "I had expected this from you, I knew you would amount to nothing when I employed you, I only took you in because your extreme wretchedness touched me. But now, I loathe you extremely. I can only assume that you've incurred knowledge of the contents of this book,secrets it contains you know?". I gasped through gritted teeth,"no! I've not!". "Silence! You lie! And for that,you shall be destroyed. my secret intentions shall not be leaked by you!" He turned to his demons, "kill them and burn down the house". I cried out," noooo, please, I beg of you." But this man's intentions could only get worse. He turned around,"Tchue,take the girl,she shall bear me offsprings when she comes of age".at that point, one demon gave a bound,grabbed my sister, blasted the roof and shot out with her. I screamed in horror,I made to move but the tendrils coiled tighter,"grace! Noo, noo! Please, not grace! Help!" But I looked around to find only a demon snickering, "so long thief," he said as as he lit a flame and tossed it at the floor bloods. I struggled with the tendrils as the fire flared to life threatening to engulf the whole house. The demon was already gone as I looked around, I wasn't going to die, no I wasn't! That lying bastard of a magician had taken my sister,and what was he saying about offsprings. I strained myself to remember any single spell I had learned for the past two years but none was coming to my mind. I thrashed furiously as I thought about Grace, probably at that cursed magician's house already. The fire was already licking the floor towards me as a spell came to my mind, I muttered the incantations under my breath as the fire ravaged my house,I waited, had I said it wrongly? Heat already searing my skin,I thought about dying early.instanly, a wall of blue light appeared in the room, yes! My summoning had worked, the sKeld imp demon stepped out gingerly, I screamed commands at it and five minutes later I was on a deserted hill,watching my house burn. The demon had managed to save a few of my possessions:my stolen magic books. yes! My books would be the base of my life in the years to come, I would gain magical knowledge and get my sister back!
And now,as I flew across the hazy lagos sky,barely missing a huge signpost with a smiling man on it, probably a magician contesting for the election. I had drifted down low in flight due to my reminisce of my pitiable past. Well, that was the past, the future looks colorful,with blood. MY golden eagle form not going as fast as I wanted, I transformed into a pellegrin falcon and shot up and out. One of the benefits of having a ninth level demon inside me was that I could shape shift into anything or body I wanted as fast as I thought about it. Most magicians summon demons and use them as guards,the demons are in levels and types. I had never read about any magician summoning a demon into himself so I attempted it with fear. The demon I chose,Necho by name,a powerful ninth level Korula,possessed me while I took its, essence, powers and memories, I felt no pain, no form of abnormality except having some visions of war. I believed the demon to be inexistent while I inherited its powers and...
The sentinel on the south side of my sister's abductor came into view,I braced myself, the accursed one would be surprised of how I'd changed in the last five years,I flapped my strong winds twice and descended to the street, at a point beside a street post,I dropped like a stone. As I touched the earth, I became an egyptian cat, black of fur,with beautiful golden eyes. I closed my cat eyes and opened my inner ones and scanned the area for any inhuman activities,:I only glimpsed a huge angel standing at the gate of a poor looking house. I started forward,with revenge in my heart, hatching plans of how to infiltrate the mansion.


To be continued as soon as I get more demonic inspiration, and my apologies if it was a little crude.it jsut came out now. The next part promises to be much more refined.
