“We have to kill it,” Kai whispers over the cowering body of the woman we just brought down, now trapped and almost lifeless. “It saw me.”

Declan makes his way over to the demonic mouse trap, rubbing the back of his neck. “I agree, but we can’t do it now.”

“Why?” Kai argues with worried eyes as he studies the symbol on the ground. It’s a square with a circle and tiny markings etched all around it. I’ve never seen anything so foreign. It looks like a bunch of scribbles to me, but apparently it keeps demons caged inside.

He angrily places his hand on his hips and juts one of his feet out to the side. He’s looking more and more human every day.

“They have our parents, Kai,” I say. “We need answers.”

His face twists, but he nods. “Fine. We need to close the gateway, too.”

“We can do that,” I say, liking that we aren’t going to leave this place as a portal for more demonic souls.

“That mouse trap thing will keep the demon in there, right?” Candy asks as she takes a careful look at the woman heavily breathing against the floor.

Declan made quick work of the mouse trap the second he could, taking a permeant marker to the ground. Mrs. Carlson was out of it for a bit after our attack, so he was able to cage her in. The symbol, so intricate and ornate, I’ve only come across it in books. A large circle with four stars in the middle and tiny icons, I can only be described as ancient symbols derived from, what looks to be the Bible. It looks so meticulous, but Declan made short work of it and had it done in just a few minutes.

“It will,” Declan says. “It’s a demonic confine, but her son could come back at any moment. We have to take her somewhere we can interrogate her.”

“The only safe place would be mom and dad’s house,” Wood offers, his eyes quickly sliding toward me and I wonder why he looks so weary.

Declan sighs heavy. “He’s going to hate this.”

“Mom’s going to hate this.”

Declan shakes his head and walks the perimeter of the outlined mouse trap on the ground. “How did you do this? It’s almost as if the demon is gone.”

Kai observes the once hysterical woman, his finger on his chin. “I guess you could say it is—in a sense. That incantation I did was to push out the demon. The spell twists and manipulates the evil into something good—or better. Demons as a whole are bad, but at one point or another, we have human interaction. As long as there’s a small string attached to a human life, even that teeny tiny contact has a lasting effect.”

“It’s brilliant,” Candy admires, high fiving Kai. “It sees good and internalizes it and doesn’t even realize.”

“Exactly, dear. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. It really depends.”

“Like you?” I say.

“What do you mean?” Kai asks.

“You held onto your humanity. Were you thrust into a human world for a while? Is that why you’re so different than them?”

He laughs.
