Go meet the other demon

Nicole stood for a couple minutes admiring her new digs. “I’d say you’ve gotten security now, honey, and Mr. Strauss has a new purpose in life to go with those new boobs of his,” she mused to the caged mind of her stolen body. “The other guy in town will want to know who’s making waves around here . . . only nice if I introduce myself to the competition,” she said with a smile as her curvy body disappeared in a puff of black smoke. Zeke had used his host’s mind to scrounge about and locate Lisa’s address, and within moments the demon, complete with the Nicole suit, smoked back into reality in front of Lisa’s rather luxurious abode. “Not bad,” Zeke said as he stepped back from the house to look about. His host’s heels clicked on the concrete driveway as decorative lights in the yard shone on the impressive home. “This guy’s gonna be so pissed that I’ve upstaged him within a day or so of finding my first meat suit,” Zeke said with a chuckle.

He straightened his host’s dress and hiked up her boobs to make a fine presentation of himself, and then Zeke knocked on the door. He waited a few seconds, and movement could be heard inside the house. Someone fiddled with the lock, and the door came open. “Hello there!” said the woman on the other side of the door. Zeke quickly recognized her as the very woman his present body had met that very morning. “Lisa!,” he said with a smile, “good to see you!” She stepped back and welcomed the apparent Nicole into the house and closed the door. “Did you ever find Mr. Glickman?” Lisa asked. “You know what we didn’t actually; it’s a darn shame too ‘cause Mr. Strauss was going to see him today,” Zeke said, knowing full well what had been done to Glickman.

Lisa cocked her head a little. “So may I ask what brings you here?” she inquired. Zeke smiled back, “Just a social call, and I thought I should tell you to keep an eye out for my boss. Please let us know ASAP if Mr. Glickman tries to contact you,” he said, “we’re really quite worried about him. How are you liking your time off?” the possessed Nicole asked.

Lisa paused. “I’ve enjoyed it a lot,” she said, “I keep so busy I sometimes wish I could let somebody else be me just for a bit of rest.” Zeke smiled giddily from his host body. He extended his hand, “Well if you’re willing to shake on that I may be able to help you out with that,” he said. Lisa began to extend her hand in surprise.

Just as the two were about to shake on it, a blast of demonic energy flew into Zeke’s possessed vessel, knocking it and him a good teen feet into the air. Nicole’s body remained suspended in the air after the impact, and Zeke held his hands to his host’s throat and began to cough as if being choked. “Don’t go making any deals with this one, Lisa,” Jonny said as he walked into the room, “I know you can’t tell, but that isn’t Nicole. It may look like her, but I can see Zeke’s pudgy little ectoplasmic goo trying to hid out inside Nicole up there. Isn’t that right Zeke?!” Jonny called out. “Oh all right you got me,” he said as he still struggled to breathe and kicked in mid-air, “I do love a good ride in a big-boobed secretary from time to time,” he said. “How’s it going, Jonny?”

Jonny paused. “Well it was going great until you tried to muscle your sniveling little carcass into my lady over there,” he said as he motioned to Lisa, “what were you going to do—posses her, kill Nicole, and then ride around in Lisa’s body for a decade or so just enjoying yourself and leave he body years older and thirty pounds fatter than she was when you found her?” Zeke laughed despite his ****. “Well the thought did cross my mind,” he said, “figured you and I could hang out together.” Jonny nodded indicating he understood. “How’d that go?” he asked with a smile. “Not great,” Zeke said as he struggled to breathe. “Damn right,” Jonny said. He looked over at Lisa with Nicole’s possessed body still far above them both. “Lock the door and don’t let anyone else in. I’m going to go have a talk with Zeke,” he declared. With that, he leapt his tiny Jack body into the air and sailed through it until he impacted Nicole’s body. Suddenly, both of them disappeared in a puff of black smoke.

A couple moments later, the two poofed back into existence on a deserted mountaintop overlooking the city. They rolled about in the dust and slowly got up as if they had been dropped from quite some distance up. Jonny dusted his body off, while Zeke stood more slowly because of the extra weight in Nicole’s chest. “Not happy to see me?” Zeke said with a smile. “Not happy to see you try to possess Lisa,” Jonny said as he examined Nicole’s body. “You’ve already got a fine meat suit . . . how did you manage to climb in there anyway?” he asked. Zeke chuckled. “She asked for financial security, and her body was my price. She agreed.” Jonny shook his head. “Stupid girl,” he said. “Yeah,” Zeke agreed as he shuffled up next to Jonny and looked out at the city.

“Funny isn’t it—looking at the entire city as our little fucking snow globe?” Jonny asked. “Yeah,” Zeke answered, “I don’t mind telling you this is the first body I’ve taken since arriving here, and I’ve already managed a bigger house than Lisa has. Some CEO signed over his stuff to Nicole, so I met my obligation to her, and the CEO is now a sexy little maid in my service,” he explained. Jonny shifted and looked up at Zeke with a smile. “Ever heard of beginner’s luck kid?” he asked. Zeke chuckled. “Yeah, it’s what people whose days on top are numbered use to justify their losses to the next generation,” he responded.

Jonny laughed. “You cocky little shit,” he began, “you’ve never tangled with an Alpha demon before have you?” he asked. Zeke looked surprised. “A what?” he asked. “Oh you’ll see,” Jonny answered. Jonny walked a few steps away and took another look at the city. “Gonna be a fun contest,” he said with a smile. Then he got serious. “If you get near Lisa again I swear you will beg me to let you posses someone else after what I’ll do to you,” he said, and then he ominously disappeared.
