Zeke celebrates his new body by granting some wishes

Nicole Johnson's stolen body walked through the streets of the city, looking around at the people she passed and smirking as she payed attention to everything that was going on around her. Zeke absolutely loved this city. Everyone wanted something, which meant that there was something that he could do to everybody. Right now, he only had one thing to worry about, and that was granting Nicole's wish for financial security.

In a perfect world, Zeke would have just stolen Nicole's body and not had to give her what she actually wanted, but that wasn't how his abilities worked. If he tried to cheat her out of her wish in too big of a way, he would end up in severe pain until he granted it properly. Zeke also had selfish goals in mind with her wish. He wanted to set himself up having a very nice house and with someone getting him whatever he wanted whenever he wanted it. He knew that the other demon, whatever his name was who got rid of the fat-ass lawyer that Zeke had originally wanted to have as a meatsuit, was using the other lawyer to wait on his every need and Zeke had to give a good idea respect. Of course, he'd make sure to one-up that other demon. Zeke was always a show off. All of these factors made granting Nicole's wish his top priority.

As Nicole' possessed meatsuit kept walking down the street, attracting looks from all sorts of people, Zeke suddenly got an idea for how he could grant her wish, while also ensuring that he'd have a wonderful home for himself, and a new servant. Zeke reached into Nicole's purse and took out her cell phone. He then closed his eyes, looking into Nicole's memory to get the phone number that he needed before dialing and putting the phone to his head. After a few seconds of dialing, a man's voice entered the phone. Zeke took a deep breath in and gave his best Nicole impersonation. "Hello Mr. Strauss. This is Nicole Johnson...that's right, I'm Mr. Glickman's secretary....I'm afraid Mr. Glickman can't meat you in his office today. He's not really feeling like himself...He told me that I should meet you at your estate to discuss the important features of the upcoming case....yes sir, I know everything I need to...you'll give your house staff the day off so that we can be alone? Fantastic, looking forward."

At that, she hung up the phone and put it back into her purse. The man that the supposed Nicole had just gotten off the phone with was Ivan Strauss, the CEO of Imagicorp and Stanley Glickman's most recent client. Little did he know that all of that was about to change for him. Nicole quickly called a cab and had the driver take her to the Strauss estate, a huge manor right on the city limits. It was by far the nicest house in the area, big enough to fit several of the smaller mansions within it's gate. Zeke knew from his little research that the manor was nearly twice the size of the mansion that the other demon was calling home and it was even a fairly close distance should he decide to meet up with his potential friend. As the cab parked, the supposed Nicole paid the driver with all of the money in her wallet, giving him an unbelievable 200 dollar tip. "T-t-thank you, ma'am" the driver said as Zeke stepped out of the cab and smiled at him.

"You're welcome kid. I won't be needing it anymore" he said as he turned and walked to the gate that separated the Strauss manor from the rest of the city. he crossed his arms and looked into the security camera waiting for the gate to open. Sure enough, it opened by itself after a little and Zeke was able to strut his stolen ass right through and into the house. The living room alone was bigger than the average house in the city and was a very pleasant place to wait as Mr. Strauss dismissed his staff so that no one could possibly eavesdrop on their conversation. From the corner of Nicole's eyes, Zeke even saw the old fart telling his security team to take the day off. What a fool...

"Well my dear, we are now all alone!" Strauss exclaimed, walking over to his guest with a big smile on his face as the security team walked out the front door to return to their own cars. Strauss put an arm around Nicole's waste, pulling her close and kissing her cheek before he took a seat on one of the many couches in the room. Zeke did the same, crossing his slender legs and pulling his dress up just a bit in the process to give Strauss a lovely view.

"Thank you for meeting me here and setting this up on such short notice, Mr. Strauss" Zeke said in his secretary voice, deciding to play his part a little.

"The pleasure is all mine, dear. Anything I can do to get this matter fixed sooner than later..." he said, now looking a bit nervous since his staff was no longer here to see.

"Are you alright, sir?" the apparent Nicole asked, standing up and moving over to him, taking out a handkerchief from her purse and wiping some of the sweat from his forehead. In the wake of his company's controversy, Strauss' wife and children had picked up all of their stuff and left to live with their grandparents on the other side of the country. He was also being sued left and right by angry customers, not to mention he was almost 75 and had a heart condition. Zeke was betting that the old man wished he could be anyone else right now.

"Yes, I'm fine. Just tired and weak. Do me a favor and pray you never get to be as old and frail as me, my dear" he said with a smirk. Zeke mirrored the smirk on his cute face.

"Oh, I don't see that ever being an issue for me sir" he said with a wink.

Strauss didn't get the joke, but he continued speaking anyway. "Now then, I believe there's some paperwork that I should be signing before we can officially have Mr. Glickman represent us in court?" He asked, as Zeke reached into Nicole's pocketbook, taking out a folded contract that he had made appear only a few seconds earlier.

Zeke nodded as he unfolded the contract and put it down on Strauss' legs. "That's right sir. You just need to sign on the line" he said, directing Strauss' hand to the line.

Strauss was about to sign his name when he started laughing. "My dear, do you honestly expect me to believe this?" he asked, causing Nicole to frown in confusion.

"Believe what, sir?" she asked.

Strauss pointed to the contract. "This contract isn't hiring a lawyer! It's giving you my house, giving you all of my money and firing all of my staff!" he exclaimed.

Now it was Nicole's turn to laugh. "Righttttt...Sorry, I'll explain" she said, standing up straight and looking right into Strauss' eyes. "Here's the deal. This hasn't been publicized and I don't expect it to ever be, but Mr. Glickman will not be representing you in court. Both him and his senior partner have chosen to take extended leaves of absence for various reasons. I may only be a secretary, but I know when someone is in trouble, and right now you're in big trouble. Before he left, Mr. Glickman suggested that I give you this. You can quietly give me your estate and money to keep safe and then I'll set you up with a new identity. You'll be free to live a new life until this all blows over. What do you say, Mr. Strauss?"

Strauss looked down at the contract in front of him, clearly deep in thought. He then looked back up at Nicole, letting out a sigh. "I think you're right. This could help me to get away from everything until things quiet down. You promise me that everything will be taken care of?" he asked, looking Nicole straight in the eyes.

Nicole gave him her best smile and nodded. "Of course, Mr. Strauss. Your assets will be very well taken care of" she said as the old fool signed away his home, his fortune and permanently dismissed all of his staff, leaving the mansion as well as every dollar he owned in the name of Nicole Johnson. Now there was only one loose end to tie up. "Thank you so much for believing in me, Mr. Strauss. You must really wish you could be anyone else right now, don't you?" she asked.

Strauss nodded. :You don't know the half of it, dear. I wish I could have any life but the one I'm living right now..." he said, looking down with a defeated look on his face.

"Any life?" Nicole asked with an evil smile on her face. Her eyes suddenly began glowing bright red.

Strauss was still looking down and didn't realize anything amiss. "Yes..." he said, nodding. "I wish I could have any life at all that isn't the one in this big mess...." He said before looking up and jumping when he noticed Nicole's eyes.

"Well...." Nicole said, in a voice that was half that of Nicole Johnson and half the Demon Zeke. "Since you wished for it, you can have it!" she exclaimed as black smoke show out of her hand and surrounded the old man, entrapping him in a black circular cocoon like shell.
