Chapter 14: Her Demons Are Here But She Rose Up

A different twisted plan. And a talk. A reflection.

DELTA

"Time will not bring our Grandfather back." Death stated. "The one chance God could've he didn't. Because he doesn't love you. What did you do?"

"I wasn't a believer. I asked and BEGGED GOD TO HEAL HIM! But he didn't! HE TORE MY HEART OUT! But then. . .in 2017, for some good reasons I joined their. . .now stupid religion! My hate was consuming me. I left behind non-believer friends because that's what they needed I left online friends to invest time into the church. I fought for Christianity online in debates! I went to church on Sunday! I DID EVERYTHING!"

"This earth could've been united against them or you lead them against the ungodly." Death explained. "The plan was right there!" She snatched at thin air. "But you were a coward and gave it up for them. But now you don't exactly believe in God. So now the plan is still a valid option."

"I fought atheists online and lost. But now I'll fight the Christians online! And I will fight them until I am dead! There is only one justice left. Christianity has to be beaten down to the ground all across the world! They must be exterminated!"

"She was one of us!" Dawn shouted.

Friday came into her memory? Maybe this was reality? But she wasn't awake? Barely awake. "She despised us. The moment when God didn't save her grandfather she was becoming and turning into our enemy. In time she was about to kill us all. So we had to act. She was writing in a story slash journal and I could tell she was losing it. So we had to act." They did act against me. Delta thought.

Her eyes flickered opened. Flashing blue and red lights. She sat up. Friday and Dawn stood back. "Whoa! What the?" Another voice said. She heard the click of a safety turning off. Probably a cop. That's right she had split her personality, her mind, and/or her heart. So now Dawn was here in the flesh. Her vision was still blurry but after shaking her head. She could see. Two cops with pistols trained on her. Dawn and Friday behind them. And behind them was Cin.

She felt it. It had worked. That witch she had been in contact with had given her powers. She had traveled the world for a time for key ingredients and that witch performed her spell all the way from the Middle East. King Saul and the other kings after you are all such amazing fools for not killing all the witches. She was now a vampire. The first real outspoken public vampire of the 21st century. BANG! BANG! The cops opened fire at her. Putting bullets in various spots of her chest. But to their shock, she healed from the attack. The bullets coming out as her flesh reformed and pushed the bullets out as it finished. They stopped their shooting. Running out of shots. Glancing at one another in fear.

"Delta, we're sorry." Friday began.

"I must say I am disappointed." Of course, they invited her to the Harrisons house. She thought it was an MTG day but no this was a betrayal. She stood a few yards from them but in a flash of speed, she was up next to both cops. Backhanding one and in doing so sent him flying into a nearby fence and uppercutting the other at an inhuman speed. Making him fly in the air hitting his head against the street. Both cops lay unconscious or dead.

"Oh, and it's not Delta. My name is Nyx Voss!" She kicked Dawn sending her back into Freya's car parked near the sidewalk. Cin walked forward attempting to punch her. She dodged the blow and grappled her tossing her behind her throwing her against a pillar supporting the edge of the roof. THUD!

Nyx turned her attention to Friday now. Grabbing her by the throat with one hand. Turning around. Walking her a few feet with her dangling in her grasp. Slamming her against the garage door. "Delta, please! I saw you were going crazy. I read the chapters of your writing that you sent. You were beyond help! We. . ." Nyx hated being called Delta. She tightened her grip on Friday's neck. "We- we were friends once. Basically sisters."

"First off," Nyx began making her grip even tighter. "Don't call me Delta. Second yes we were friends once. But you are a weakness to me. And weakness must be cut off." ZAP! "AAHHH!" Nyx screamed. Her grip loosed and she released Friday. Behind her was Freya with a stun gun. Using it on her lower back. "AAHH!" She convulsed and fell to the ground.

Friday and Freya hugged. "Please, my sister let's get out of here." Friday nodded. They both turned to leave. But standing before them was Nyx.

"Going somewhere?" Nyx hissed. She kicked Freya in the chest sending her through the garage wall. Friday backed away in fear, falling to the ground. Cin was back on her feet. Snapping her fingers. Summoning a gold blade. "I see God has favored you! A lesser version of me, granting you magic, our magic that we conjured in our heads," Cin grunted leveling her blade thrusting it forward. Nyx sidestepped from the blow. Elbowing Cin in the back sending her sprawling on the ground behind her. She turned to face Friday just be see blackness for a sec. Dawn uppercut her.

She took a step back. "Whoa!" She exclaimed. Shaking her head clearing her vision. Dawn had her own blade summoned. A cut she landed. "DANG IT!" Nyx cursed. She answered the attack with a kick to Dawn's legs making her fall to the ground in a cry of pain. Dawn's blade was dismissed in sparks. "So Dawn, I thought about this. Which one of me should I kill first?" Dawn stood back up determination on her face. Dawn cocked her right hand back then tried to punch her? She simply caught her fist in one hand. Then punched Dawn with her free hand the other her let out a cry of pain again. "Pathetic attempt," Nyx stated. Dawn stood back up. "Should I kill you, Trinity Demon, or Cin first? I had thought Cin but since you're right in front of me I think it will be you." Dawn grabbed a hold of her shoulders. Nyx answered with a headbutt. Dawn fell to the ground again in pain.

She knelt down grabbing Dawn by the collar of her shirt. She began to stand up with Dawn exhausted and beaten at her mercy. Fangs extended. She began to open her mouth but she heard movement behind her. She turned to see another cop car driving down the street towards them. It stopped hoping out was another cop but also a few familiar faces. Taylor Andrews. Her sister.

She let go of Dawn. Staring daggers at Taylor Andrews. In a flash of speed, she crossed the distances between them. She stood in front of the officer. Plunging her hand into his chest. Pulling out his heart. Dropping it to the floor. The cop fell down dead. Taylor and her sister stood in shock at seeing the new her and what she could do. "Taylor Andrews I see you're back. A little too late. Maybe you hoped for my redemption." She uppercut him grabbed him by his throat lifting him up. "I tried to rebuild our friendship. But it was in vain. I found out from you that anyone who's not part of your Christian family means NOTHING TO YOU!" Her sister grabbed her arm that was choking Taylor. Begging her to stop.

"There is no stopping this." With her free hand, she pushed her sister to the ground. She turned her attention to Taylor. "So know this. You are nothing." She whispered into his ear. "The only reason why I'll spare you so you can remember this." She let him go. He fell to the ground gasping and coughing for air. She stood in the middle of the street shrugging. Her hands going up as if saying, "Come on! Is this it?!" She yelled. She slowly turned around examining their stares of horror and shock. The neighbors in the nearby houses were either calling 911 or scared to death. Freya slowly crawled from the rubble of the hole in the garage she had made because of Nyx. She slumped down next to Friday in pain and exhausted.

"Is this seriously all you can do? Was this your PLAN?! I set my plan into motion long before you all did! I knew the Christians would eventually betray me again! You're all a bunch of traitors!"

She reached over grabbing the remote pausing the memory. She sat on a black couch. Staring at the screen. Dawn sat next to her shaking her head in sorrow and pity. "What?" Delta snapped.

"Delta, Death, Aezlith, Conquest, Dawn, Cin, and finally Nyx Voss. No matter what name or voice in us takes command or takes root more than the others at a given moment or given space to speak and grow. We're all broken. Broken!" Dawn began to cry. Delta started to tear up. Soon she was crying also. "It was 14-year-old me," Delta stated.

"Don't blame a specific age of you. It's us! The whole of us! Not a single part, not a certain part. And maybe you want the name Nyx Voss so you can reset or people might forget the sins of Delta and the plan you so horribly thought of. . .but at the end of the day we will always be Delta. Please, can you just admit that it is you not just your 14-year-old fault? So our sins don't have to be carried alone by a certain part of us. You are a coward." Dawn said whipping away her tears.

"No, no I am not." Delta began to defend herself.

"Yes, you are a bloody coward. Always trying to shift the blame on others but yourself."

"Very truthful. But you forget something. Delta is dead. Because my name is Nyx Voss. Don't refer to me like her. Oh, and her sins are void because I am not her. She died when I came out as a non-believer." She stood up and began to walk away. Pausing to look over her shoulder. "But unlike the coward Delta. I'll stand by them. Even though they are difficult and sometimes offensive. The Harrisons are my friends. The Millers are my friends."

"What about the Andrews?" Dawn questioned.

"They are nothing!" Nyx hissed. Turning to face Dawn. "Especially the one called Taylor."

"Is that so? Do you really believe that he doesn't care for you as a friend? So what now? Delta? You-"

"Don't call me Delta!"

"I'll call you Delta Gold Adams because that is who you are. But seriously what is next? You wear this Nyx Voss name for how long? You think that will save you from your demons. . .our demons?"

"I am not looking to be saved."

"That's right," Dawn replied nodding. Rising up from the couch taking a step closer towards Delta. "Too prideful to seek help. Preferring to fight your enemies alone without help."

"You can only trust yourself."

"You don't believe that we don't believe that."

"I do-" Nyx began. "AAHH!" Dawn had headbutted her.

"That's what that feels like. Get your act together. You are the main voice. The main part that will lead the rest of us to greatness. Please, I beg you to reconsider your actions."

"I'll. . .NOT! I AM NYX VOSS!"

"Nyx Voss? The villain the just played before me?!" Dawn motioned to the video memory. Talking with her hands. "You are desperate for power. Dreaming of it. God is power. Part of you wants to unleash the darkness within you because it will be easier than going along the good path. But the good path is better. Honor. Love. Loyalty. Family. We were at CYA recently. We thought it would be our last one. But the message was so good. The Christians were our family once. We watched the Black Widow movie not long ago. Remember! Family is power. I say that because we watched The Originals the show that we've been watching and the Black Widow movie touched on that subject. And look to the fictional character Elena Michaels even in that show and the writers who did that. . .family is everything. You felt alive and amazing with the Christians. Why turn your back on them?"

"You know why."

"Enlighten me."

"I've said this before but in different words but similar statements." Nyx took a deep breath. Then exploded in rage. "BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HEAL MY GRANDFATHER! HE DOESN'T LOVES ME! THEN WHEN I JOINED HIS FAMILY THAT FAMILY BETRAYED ME! THEY LEFT ME ALONE! GOD ABANDONED ME TO MY DARKNESS AND DEMONS! HE GAVE ME A SIN I COULDN'T BEAT! LUST! PORN! HE MADE ME INTO TODAY ME! HE TORE MY HEART OUT! HE WANTS ME TO BE A VILLAIN! A PERSON DEVOTED AGAINST HIM! So yes. . .I'll be bitter because he made me feel that way towards the church and the Christians. I'll hate them. Most of them I hate. . .expect-"

"Expect for the Harrisons, Millers, and your flesh and blood family that are Christians."

"Yes. . .but I have hated them also. . .I hate myself for hating them for falling for what they call sin. I do believe but due to my promise and my honor, I can never join them as a sister in Christ. And due to my hate still, in me I am dangerous. Especially to myself mentally beating myself up. Torturing myself. Remembering the past. And how things could've been better. If I had acted differently on certain days. If I never had left them."

"You can break just this one promise holding you back from what you want to believe what you believe to be the truth."

"Do not make me break my word."

"Then will you ever be free if you keep it?"

"No, I won't."

"You don't like being caged and you love freedom."

"Yes."

"So who are you? What do you believe? Who do you want to be?"

"I want to be me. . .but I also want to be like them. The Harrisons! The Millers! They have light in them." Tears forming in Nyx's eyes. "But my promise!"

"Destroy it! Nullify it with a new one!"

"I will-"
